Adjust Cost routine 1 ILE with with item No Value entries

jannestig

I encountered a scenario which i believe is a huge flaw in the adjust cost.

1 item in the past had a large incorrect value (FIFO) and during the correction process one of the large value entries got linked to a ILE for item 2 also FIFO.

3 months later adjust cost has picked up this entry and applied the unit cost of item 1 to item 2.

How can the system allow that to happen although i acknowledge that the incorrect linking was probably manually made.

Is the fact that the system allowed 2 item value entries to influence one another with costs a large bug in the adjust cost routine?

Any thoughts ? the entries are shown below.

Application is not responsible for errors made by users. If somebody linked two item entries for different items, application is not preapred for that. Find the person who did that mistake and cut him the hands.

If somebody will fill the car tank by high explosive liquid instead gas and the car will explode, do not try to accuse the car designer that it is a bug...
