Nav5 item transfer

Is there a way to transfer items that are in open production between locations while still maintaining the costing link. We use the Item Reclass. Journal, however, the system assigns the current average cost to the transaction. The result is that when production is closed and the item cost is updated only one side of the transfer is updated and there is a residual value left in one location representing the difference between the average cost at the time of transfer and the updated unit cost from production.

Run the "Adjust Cost - Item Entries" report and/or set the "Automatic Cost Adjustment" in "Inventory setup".

The problem we are finding is that when production of the transferred item is finished and we run the "Adjust Cost - Item Entries" that while the outbound transfer has the cost updated to reflect the cost of the production, the inbound transfer to the new location remains at the average cost in the item card at the time of transfer. Also, because it is a transfer, going into the Application Worksheet to fix the costs won't work because you cannot alter the inventory assignment on a transfer transaction.
