Change value in Inventory

Posted on by
Hi all,

If the quantity is right and I only need to change the value. How do I do this?

Example:

I have 0 in quantity but the value of the inventory says 2900. 

How do I post/change so it will say: 0 in quantity and value says 0?

Hope it makes sense.

Regards

    It seems the item in question may be setup using average costing method. In general, you could try to revaluate inventory, but it may involve different scenarios. I would advise you to reach out to partner and work with financial people to find the root cause before trying to fix.

    If this value is shown in Inventory Valuation report - You need to run the "Adjust Cost - Item Entries" process, so that it updates the unit costs - as all outgoing should match the all incoming value.
     
    If this value is shown on G/L inventory account, but the Inventory Valuation report shows 0 value, then it has to be, that there is some manual postings done in this account, and You need to either reverse that manual posting, or post another one that zeroes the balance on GL account.

    Hello,
     
    you can use the Item Revaluation Journal for this purpose.
     
    Enter Document No., Item No. and then choose Applies-to Entry, and Inventory Value(Revalued) needs to be zero (or the value that you want to be revaluated in this entry).
     
    You can read more on the following link.
     
    You will never get 0 in the Quantity field on the Item Ledger Entry since quantity is the real quantity that this entry is posted with. The remaining quantity can go to 0 once the quantity from this entry is spent.
    The process above will make your Cost Amount (Actual) zero on the entry on the Item Ledger Entry page (one that you entered on the Applies-to Entry on the Item Revaluation Journal), but the quantity will remain the one that is listed on the Item Ledger Entries page.
     
    Revaluing the value of the entry to zero is not a common process, but if your colleagues from finance require it, you can do it in the way explained above.
     
    If you have additional questions feel free to ask.
     
    Greetings
