RE: SALES ORDER COST

Candy,

For what purpose do you need to correct the cost?   If it's for inventory
valuation there's a feature in IM to do that.    Go to the Period Closing
Activity Menu (AMIM60).   Run the LIFO/FIFO Valuation report.   The report
will show the inventory transactions that have occurred, including sales
transactions that affect the inventory on hand.   The report includes a
transaction ID# that can be used to make corrections to the cost.   After
running the report, use the LIFO/FIFO Maintenance option on the same menu to
make your changes.   You will need to reference the Transaction ID on the
report to bring up the transaction to be maintained.

Subject: SALES ORDER COST

I have been approached by the CEO to resolve a problem with the historical
cost on orders.  He thinks that there should be a way within MAPICS to
correct the cost on an order that has already invoiced with a bad cost.  I
know of no way of doing that without updating files through a DFU.  Is there
a way to do it?  If, so how?  If not, what files would need to be updated?  

Thank you,
Candy Hein
