RE: Item Model Group configuration
Hello James,
What I could imagine to get a different and hopefully better cost of sales analysis would be allocating the PPV at the end of the month to the different product issue transactions such as the sales that you record and post.
Such an allocation is, however not very easy and is based on a number of assumptions.
(You will probably need sales order or customer related findims that you can refer to and the amounts will be allocated based on the sales amount, which can be a wrong assumption).
Also, the allocation tools that we have available in AX are impacting the General Ledger only.
In other words, if you run a report in sales and marketing, you won't see the effect of those GL allocations.
In short, there is no good solution available for this in my opinion but a couple of workarounds that you will have to test and discuss internally before applying them in your live environment.
Best regards,
Ludwig
