Logged By: Alvis (Link Technologies) on 30 Mar 2021 04:26PM

Group: Software Defect

Status: Closed
Subject: Inventory "Cost Method" does not correctly reflect in the "Movement Report" when the "Item Cost" is changed
Summary:    

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a new item using the standard cost method and perform adjust in Qty: 1000 Cost: $10.00
  2. Change items standard cost to $100.00
  3. Perform a stocktake of the item. Count qty: 0
  4. Post stock take and verify movement report

The net movement of the item is -$90,000 - There should be a Journal created to Credit Stock Asset and Debit Stock Adjustment accounts

We need to review the impact of the standard and last cost method has on the valuation of the stock, as well as General Ledger interfaces. This should happen in the following areas:

  1. Purchase Receipts - Cost is changed, the difference should be reflected in GL as well as the stock value in Inventory
  2. Stock Adjustment IN - cost can be changed causing stock revaluation
  3. Transfer from one location to another
  4. Stocktake

Design:

  1. Add a new table to hold Cost Adjustments. This will be a detail table to the "Inventory Location Items"
  2. When items cost is changed, we record the movement and stock valuation based on the relevant costs
  3. Change the Item Movement report to reflect the changes in cost
  4. Send Journals through the integration based on cost changes
