Re: V81 and Inventory Close

Me on 405-CD so take my remarks with grain of e-salt.

More ITH records purged thru YTH than you intended. So INV300 F21 is empty.
Performance enhancement, because no data to process.

Anything posted 1/31/2011 (today) is already gone history, where BPCS
assumes it belongs in the fiscal period prior to the ending you specified.
Same deal as if you did correct date for ending, and someone posts
something, back dated into a prior fiscal period.

Depending on what reports you ran for end-fiscal-month, the totals in those
reports no longer reflect company truth, because you back dated stuff into
1-31-2011, which is last inventory accounting totals period.

However, check your fiscal calendar (GLD file maintenance period master) ...
is 1-31-2011 in January or February fiscal period? Your end-fiscal date
should be consistent with completing the work, then any future work come
after end-fiscal reports.

This is why we have most of our end fiscal dates on weekends.

Subject: [BPCS-L] V81 and Inventory Close

Ran inventory close yesterday with incorrect closing date of 1/31/2011. What
are the possible problems associated with this error? The LISSU field in
ILI is not being populated as "B" transactions are entered. Is this a result
of the incorrect closing date? Thanks in advance for any insight provided!!
