Adjust Cost of goods solds after posted sales invoice

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello everyone!

I have this situation with a customer: 

They posted a purchase invoice of an item with zero amount. They sold that item. Now they have to update the cost of both transactions. 

We have registered a purchase invoice with an item charge, so we can adjust the vendor account and the inventory account (of the original purchase transaction). But this item is not tracked by lot number, so when we registered this, the COGS account wasn't updated. 

How can I update the COGS account that was generated during the sales transaction?

Thank you!

Regards!

    Hello Josh,

    Thank you for your answer! I read the link you posted, but I'm confused. The inventory movement has already been done. I have the purchase (which increased the inventory value), with no cost. And I have the purchase invoice (with no inventory movement) where the item charges were posted, so the item direct cost could be updated correctly.

    Now, How can I reapply the sales transaction so the COGS can be recalculated? And to which document should I reapply?

    Thank you!
