Hello everyone
Our inventory item values on production orders/batches are building up value as the production goes on in AX. When any material and/or hours are being booked against the production order the value of that particular batch is increased by the standard cost of each of those posted operations/consumptions. All these values are being booked to our Work in Progress inventory.
Problem is that when the RAF & Put away transaction is done and moved to our intermediate inventory it will take the full cost of the batch i.e. including also the remaining operations (like batch review and release of the batch).
This will lead to a situation where our WIP valuation will be negative.
When eventually the remaining operations are performed and the batch is ended all the production variances will be booked and the situation will be even but this will take months.
How to avoid all the costs going to WIP after RAF and put away and WIP being negative?
