production subledgers postings

Posted on by Community Member

Hello, I am trying to identify the production subledgers posting activities.

1. Picking list (GL credits raw materials and debits WIP)

2. Report as finished (GL credits WIP and debits Finished Product)

3. Production end (system generates a GL recalculation of cost, debits/credits all accounts affected, no subledger postings)

None of 1,2,3 generates "subledgers" vouchers.

Subledgers posting to interim accruals are visible for "receipts and sales orders", but not visible for production.

How and when the movement of the subledgers occur in production? Are the subledger postings only generated within the inventory, not through GL subledgers?

Thanks,

Check the Item model groups for Post physical inventory on all items. If this is not checked there wont be any ledger transactions until the production order is ended.

Thank you! The physical inventory for all items is checked.

I just found out "the physical voucher" is posted to GL for raw material consumption, route consumption, and report as finished; the financial voucher is posted when Production End is completed. From an accountant's perspective, we mostly relate the subledgers as GL subledger Journals postings under the trial balance> raw materials GL account > Voucher> Subledger Journal for receipts and sales orders; in production, it looks like the "subledgers" are posted as the physical vouchers (subledgers) to GL directly, and then the financial vouchers are generated when the Production End, that caused debit/credits of the same GL amount with some cost adjustments. Can someone confirm if my analysis is correct?

Hi,

You are correct. Production orders are not using the subledger framework. It is used on expenses, free-text invoice and some purchase order related postings. The production postings are directly posted to the ledger.

Check also the Production control parameters, and use the 'Ledger posting' field to set the level of ledger posting for production processes. :

Item and resource –

• Use the ledger accounts that are set up on the item groups for the raw materials, and for the finished goods.

• WIP for time consumption is taken from either resource, or resource group from the route operations.

Item and category

• Use the ledger accounts that are set up on the item groups for the raw materials and for the finished goods.

• WIP for time consumption is taken from the cost categories that are associated with the route operations.

Production groups –

• Use the ledger accounts set up on the production groups for both material and time consumption.

• A production group are associated with a released product, and is copied to the production orders when created.

• The posting on the production order then follow the production group that is associated with the production order.
