RE: Financial effects for Closing POs
Hi Mairaj Ahmed,
Let's make an example:
You order 10 pcs for $100 / pcs.
You receive 8 pcs and you post the invoice for $100 x 8 pcs = $800.
If you 'play around' and receive the other 2pcs and post an invoice for $0 for those 2 pcs then your item cost prices fluctuate a lot and might lead to a deterioration in the inventory values. In my example you would have received 10 pcs for $800 or $80 / pcs. That's a 20% lower value. At the end of the year usually the auditors check the price development in order to calculate and post some value adjustments. In my example they might come up and say that your whole inventory for this item is overvalued because prices dropped a lot recently...
Therefore, the best option is to cancel out the rest just as Andre and Junaid mentioned.
Best regards,
Ludwig
