Hi All,
There is an instance we are getting a special one time discount on an item which is averaged cost. Is there any way to receive this item in warehouse (only for this transaction) without impacting the current average inventory cost ?
as far as I know, the average cost is ALWAYS updated based on the quantity and the cost on the PO (even regardless of the inventory accounting method). That being said, I don't think header-level charges/discounts get calculated in the average... I think ours is set to NOT distribute freight charges to the items on the lines... not sure if that helps; I'm not very well versed on the PO side of things. Or maybe add a separate line for the discount? Not sure if that's a thing.
Read up on the 'Representative price' flag on both PPS095 (setting 320) and the same on the PO line (PPS201/F). If that doesn't work, you could always manually update the average cost in CAS370 after the PO has been received (revert back to what it was).
Thanks Elise !
Thanks Jeremy....representative price is a good solution but it only works when demand is generated from CO not in case demand gets generated from MO, DO or safety stock.
Then CAS370 perhaps, if this is a one-time thing. Curious what the different between 0 and 3 is then.
