Title: Work order cost posting
Post by kbuck on 09/10/08 at 13:16:37

We are using DBA Classic. From time to time our warehouse neglects to close out a work order prior to the shipment of product. We see this on the Daily Sales report where there is no cost next to our sales invoice amount.

I cant find that the costs post to gl the day or days after the sales shipment posted. I suspect that they didnt post. The work around is to post a journal entry for the costs relieving finished goods inventory and cogs. Can someone confirm that for me?

Thanks!

You are correct to make the journal entry. Once the Sales Invoice is posted, as far as the system is concerned, the process is complete and if tasks were done out of sequence, the costs will be incorrect as you see and a journal entry is needed. You will also need to run UT-K-G because the item in question will have 0 quantity on hand but will show a Book Value.

Thanks Lynn. You are the jedi master of DBA. I assume this then updates the inventory valuation report (IN-F) as well. Also, I'm assuming that if there was a difference between the
GL inventory values and the inventory report, this will narrow the difference to other reasons.
