Title: SA-B proft by invoice - average cost
Post by Laura Oliver on 02/21/07 at 13:51:37

Can I make SA-B use actual costs?
If we take way too long or kill a piece of material, then this in no where near accurate.

I like the speed and simplicity of SA-B (not found in JC, which uses actual costs)
Thanks,
Laura

Unless you have the add-on program that processes WO at Invoice Posting, Average is the cost that DBA uses on the Invoice. Therefore SA-B is correctly reporting what DBA actually did.

Does this ADD-ON program reflect both received and unrecieved PO's?
JC-A shows PO-I-E, but not PO-I-A.

Often we invoice our customer before our vendor has invoiced us. We dont receive POs in until we have comfirmed PO matches actual paper invoice.

You will never have accurate costs at the time of invoicing if you don't receive the PO's. I suggest you receive the POs and Enter Finished Production prior to invoicing so the costs are accurate (to the degree your PO is accurate). Any subsequent change resulting from a difference between the PO and Invoice will be reflected as WIP Variance but will ultimately be shown in the JC reports. If Purchasing is doing their job, it should be the rare exception that the AP Invoice is significantly different from the PO.
