Inventory Post Cost, General Ledger Posting Dates question

cveale

Good afternoon.

NAV 2009 R2.

All of the items in the DB are using a costing method of average.

We have the 'Automatic Cost Adjustment' set to Never, and have created a batch job on the server to run at midnight to run the adjust cost item entries routine.

This is fine, but I have a question. If the routine on the server runs at midnight on July 2, I will check the entries the morning after and there will be entries that have a posting dates back in May, June, and July. Why is this ?

I don't want to be adjusting my COGS and Inventory with posting date a couple months prior. What I would like is to have the posting date be the same date as when the routine runs on the server. Can this be done ?

Than you need to close the periods or set the allowed posting dates. Than it will not post anything into closed periods... just ask the consultants.. ;-)

Check the Allow Posting From field on the General Ledger Setup.
