(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Dear All,
 
I have case, in Business Central I could not find the solution. 
 
Scenario:
 
- On 28th of March, I sold a machine Item no is JD9700SPFH. This item is being tracked by serial number and cost method is specific. 
- I sold this machine with 610K Eur which is include two more serial number attachment. But attachments will come later.
 
Now, I sold the machine 610K Eur and cost of sales is machine only. 
 
When attachments arrive, I will post the purchase of two attachments. 
 
Then, I would like to consume two attachment from my inventories, and cost of them need to be put on top of cost of sales of item JD9700SPFH. 
 
Thanks in advance for your help!
 
Regards,
Yasar Turk

    What about the cost of the 'two attachments', will they have a cost of zero in the inventory subledger? If you would like their cost to be booked against item JD9700SPFH. Or is JD9700SPFH like a kit of 3 items, and you need to see the cost of all 3 together?

    I don't think there is a good way to meet your needs directly from BC. You could consider the workaround. 
     
    revaluate the cost of the machine to include the costs of the parts.
    then negative adjust the parts to make your inventory value right.
     
    I would suggest you to create a bundle item using assembly bom. then you will be able to add the parts as components. 
    in the future, don't sell the parts separately but sell as a bundle.

    Hi, It seems that these three items are a Bom. Item A= JD9700SPFH + 2 attachments 
    This should be fine if you record the cost not on the JD9700SPFH but on Item A.
     
     
    Hope this can give you some hints.
    Thanks
