ADJUSTMENT ENTRY WHILE POSTING ITEM JOURNAL

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 212
Hi Community,
 
I'm here for your support as I'm trying to post negative adjustment through item journal but problem is that business central is creating also an adjustment entry. For example an Item cost is 100. Now this should create two entries. Debit direct cost & credit Inventory Account with Rs. 100.
Now business central is creating 4 entries Debit direct cost with 100, credit inventory with 100 & also credit direct cost with 33.39 & Debit inventory account with 33.39
 
Please look at Screenshots.

    In the inventory setup page what do you have in the Average Cost Calc. Type field? Do you have Item & Location & Variant? Your cost of $100 on the item card is not location specific, but perhaps your ISB location has a average cost of 66.41, so that's why the system is adjusting the cost by 33.59

    if the item is set up with average cost, this would be normal behavior. when there is a reduction of inventory. BC will check if the posting date falls in the valuation period. If it does, BC will calculate and create those adjustment entries as needed.
