Hi,
Our marketing team views the unit cost on the item card and the purchase price card to determine how to price our products. If they see a discrepancy ><$10, they send it to accounting to fix. We've had quite a few items with this large discrepancy. We're finding that the causes are: 1) the allocation of freight to the items, or 2) when the invoice was entered the costs billed were higher than what we have in NAV or 3) the UOM entered on the PO in NAV was different than what's on the item card. Marketing needs us to update the unit costs with the correct cost if the item so they can price it correctly and I'm not sure how to fix. I know the unit cost on the item card is updated automatically, but is there a way to update NAV with the correct price? I think going forward prior to posting the invoices, any cost discrepancies should be forwarded to our Purchashing dept., but how do we correct the unit costs after posting? I'm a novice to NAV and Inventory so I apologize in advance for any misinformation or lack thereof. Also, I'm not sure if Marketing should even be looking at the item card to determine the price, so if anyone has any ideas on that as well please let me know. I think they should be given a report from Accounting or maybe there is something they can view in the Sales module instead of through Purchasing.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you so much.
