Re: Inv transfer Question.

Well, we didn't use the I/M-G/L interface because Fleetwood Corporate required
specific methods for tracking costs, so we had to write our own after we turned
off the I/M and COM/CSM interfaces. However, unless I totally misunderstood how
the G/L posting worked (which is quite possible), if you have separate ITMRVx
records and ITEMBL records between the two sites, I thought the IW and RW
postings pulled the data from their respective warehouse records. I'm not sure
how the difference in costs would be posted, however, since I didn't have to
track it that way.


If you have to manually apply differences in cost, have you considered using the
CA transaction immediately following the TW? That might work....

Dale, I get that. The question is a costing one....to G/L. How did you adjust
for the Inv bump in the G/L - via rules.

Thanks,

Hey Jeff,

If you recall, we did that at FFT. You can have different costs in different
warehouses for the same items. I actually went the two sites way in EPDM so we

could have even better control. The parts in site 100, whse 1, was a
manufactured part, and in site 200, whse 2 the same part was a purchased part.

Worked very well.

Hey Group,

I have an account that has 2 physical plants. They transfer some component
items from one to another. The issue is they would like to apply a different
cost to the component at the receiving facility to include the freight cost.
We are discussing setting up 2 Sites (EPDM).

The question is we transfer the inventory from one to another, we do not sell
it. example: if the cost is 1.00 at the production location, Plant A and 1.25
at the receiving location, Plant B. (Std Cost).

When we transfer the component we can credit Plant A's inventory for 1.00 and
debit intransit for 1.00. (IW). What do we do when we receive at plant B? The
inventory will be received at 1.25 (RW).

We could debit the Inv account - plant B, and credit another intransit - in for

the 1.25. But how do we clear the delta at the end of the month between the
two intransit accounts? (.25)

I think we would need to clear these two accounts with a journal entry and the

delta hit an Inventory adjustment account. (add up IWs against RWs).


Any other thoughts?

Gathering info.

Thanks,

Jeff
