Dear 

i have some wrong figures in my inventory value so i run the Inventory value  - Potential conflicts - inventory and General Ledger the amount i got is close to my difference but the Comment on the lines below are not clear , i got messages like 

  • The posting type Product receipt has been posted to a main account that does not represent inventory; what does this mean?
  • the setting of the post physical inventory check box for the item model group "Stock" in the item model group form in inventory management has been corrected after the posting of this transaction; Apparently this means that there was no physical entry done on this transaction at the time because the post physical inventory check box was not set to true at the time of the transaction; how can i rectify the situation?

does anyone know what they mean and how to rectify each one?

your feedback is much appreciated

regards

    Regarding the first issue, I was personally curious how that report determined which main accounts represent inventory and which do not.  It appears that any main account that is included in a total account is considered to represent inventory.  I find that odd.  Try adding your inventory main accounts to a total account and see if the error goes away.

    hello Brandon, yes it actually worked , and i found it odd too , but i thought about it , you almost never have one single inventory account for your stock, you have multiple and you only have a single account to put in your reporter report parameters , so AX expects you to put a total account in your report parameter , i might be thinking wrong but that is the best i came up with

    Hello , i celebrated too soon, but i am not all wrong, the difference between the Module and GL is reduced significantly yet still have the below errors:

    • The setting of the Post physical inventory check box for the item model group STOCK in the Item model group form in Inventory management has been corrected after the posting of this transaction.Apparently this means we checked the post physical inventory after the transaction, but is there anyway we rectify this?
    • The setting of the Post packing slip in ledger check box in the Parameters form in Accounts receivable is not correct.I am not really sure what this means
    • The posting type Inventory, inventory receipt has been posted to a main account that does not represent inventory.apparently this one didn't go away when i put total account

    I agree that typically inventory balance accounts will be found in a total account, but so will most expense accounts.  It's not an effective way to distinguish between and inventory account and an expense account.  The whole thing seems broken.
