we have done the following

 1.) Complete all transactions for the item (End all production orders, Invoice all Purchase orders or Sales orders. 2.) This should leave no shipped and uninvoiced order lines for the item(s). 3.) Preferably no open lines will ensure new costing model is picked up. 4.) Process and complete inventory close. 5.) Change the model group for the item(s).

but still gets error when try to change the item ,

The item is set to be evaluated by inventory model 'Standard cost'. The system cannot convert the item to be evaluated by an inventory model of type 'Transactions settled' only inventory models of type 'Transactions not settled' can be selected.

    Hi Ray,

    The standard costing model does not do any settlements with receipts or issues and hence does not need inventory closing.

    While Weighted average, needs settlements and inventory closing.

    Add 1 more step to your list of task to zero out the inventory and ensure no quantity and no cost amount (for both financial and physical) and then use a script to change the model group to weighted average.

    Can you please send me a screen shot for the zero out in financial and physical and sample script that you are talking about.

    Thanks,
