RE: Application Worksheet
Hello CLGroup,
Thank you for posting on the Microsoft Dynamics Forum.
The Applies-to Entry field is shown below from the Item Ledger Entries (ILE) (Table 32) when run from the Development client
The system uses the Applies-To Entry field in the ILE Table for a specific prupose, and that is for cases where an Outbound (Negaitve Quantity) ILE is specifically applied to an Inbound (Positive Quantity) ILE, which overrides the Costing Method Rules for order of applying Item Ledger Entries for negative quantity to existing Inventory (positive quantity).
Applies-To Entry field is typically populated becaues Exact Cost Reversing is completed. Exact Cost Reversing occurs automatically when a Purchase Return Order and the lines are created using the Get Posted Document Lines to Reverse to generate the Purchase Return Order Lines. If Lines are manually entered on the Purchase Return, Exact Cost Reversing Mandatory set to TRUE in Purchase & Payables Setupwhich requires that the Applies-To Entry No. on the lines of the Purchase Return Order or Purchase Credit Memo be populated.

Applies-To Entry can also be populated on Sales or Item Journals, where the Applies-To Entry field is set on the line to specifically apply a Sale or Negative Adjustment to a specific Inbound Quantity ILE, which again overrides the Costing Method rule for applying, such as FIFO being First In FIrst out, the user now forces the application. A typical scenario for Sales is Drop Shipments. The Purchase and Sales Order Line quantity are specifically applied, where the Shipment and Receipt are autoamtiacally posted.

It may help to look at Table 32, 339, and 5802 for specific transactions to see the impact. Hopefully, the guidance provided helps clarify any further details.
Thank you.
