Item cost issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

i have material which is called "Y31003", item model group settings for this item as below:

  • Physical negative inventory : False
  • Financial negative inventory : True
  • Include Physical value : False

1106._FE56CF50_-13.png

I placed a purchase order on 8/27/2014. unit price = 4.4(17% tax included) , Quantity = 75. the purchase order is only physical received.

(75 X 4.4) / ( 1 + 17%) = 282.05 (physical cost amount)

282.05 / 75 = 3.76 (unit cost price)

Since i didn't select the "Include Physical Value" in the item model group and also not configure the cost for the item, the cost of this item is Zero when it was used by production.

From 9/3/2014 to 9/19/2014, 20 item(Y31003) was used for production purpose, and the production order is also ended. which means this item is financially issued with the cost of Zero. now the on-hand inventory is 75 - 20 = 55. the unit cost price in the system displayed as  (282.05 / 55 = 5.13) which is wrong as below:

Now i want to change the settings for this item by enabling the "Include physical value". Even though the purchase order is not financially received, i also want the cost price displayed as close to the actual cost as possible.

Question:

How to adjust the item cost price to the actual physical cost price(3.76) by not closing the inventory ?

Many thanks.

    Hi,

    You could test this, its the only way I know.

    Use a stock adjustment to remove the whole quantity of 'On hand' (e.g. all 55) from stock. Use another stock adjustment to bring 55 back into stock, with a cost price that you can specify on the journal line.

    However, in my quick test, the 'Cost price' on the on hand form did not show the new cost price (I can't explain why). But, subsequent issues did use the new cost price immediately.

    My preferred solution would be to let Inventory close to adjust it, but you say you don't want that.

    Hi Guy

    Thanks for your testing, now the only testing environment that i have got the closing issue, i cannot get it recovered and cannot post new transaction either, i should setup a new testing environment. what do you think if i run the "Recalcuation" task ?

    Recalculation and Inventory close will both require the receipt to be financially updated before e.g it could adjust the price on that production order where the cost is zero.

    Which means waiting for the PO invoice to be posted. And now I mention it, I assume posting the PO invoice is another way to get the On Hand 'Cost price' updated.
