Unit Cost in Item Card

jonsan21

Hi All,

I have a situation where I have an item with FIFO costing method, which the Average Cost (LCY) field is zero, no inventory, but the Unit Cost field is not zero.

When I do an adjustment in Item Journal for this Item, with zero cost, and create an SO for this Item, the Unit Cost (LCY) at Sales Line will pick the Unit Cost from Item Card and make the Cost calculation 'inacurate' at that point of posting the SO.

Yes, when I run the Adjust Cost - Item Entries, it will adjust back the cost to zero, but is there anyway I can avoid this situation? why does the Adjust Cost periodic does not reset the Unit Cost in the Item Card to zero in the first place?

Thanks in advance,

Rgds,

Jon.

PS: oh boy, am I the only one that having headache with this Adjust Cost periodic activities?

No, everyone have problems with Adjust Cost batches... ;-)

But all is working when you are using it in right way... And best way is not using Average cost... And because you are using FIFO, it is ok...
