Stocked items posting directly to GL with only cost and quantity posting to item ledger

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 33

Hi,

Our system has been set-up so that certain Promo items pass directly to the GL (salt shakers, coffee etc). The cost of the items and the quantity appear in the item ledger but the sales amount does not.

The results in a discrepancy between the revenue on the item ledger and general ledger. From my point view this is a fundamentally flawed process that compromises they integrity of the system as the item ledger and general cannot reconcile and accurate calculation cannot be performed on the item ledger.

Is this an acceptable process or am I correct in saying it is fundamentally flawed/bugged process?

Thanks

    Are you using Automatic Cost Posting on Inventory Setup?

    Hi it a added/customized process which was set-up to not post revenue to value ledger. 

    Revenue is posted directly to GL account. Cost is posted to Item ledger

    Hi,

    How you found that there is discrepancy. For financials of items value entry table is used. Item ledger is used to keep inventory levels correct.
