There is a multitude of things that can effect AFI and all can be explained
(some not easily identifiable and some you are not going to like):
    - Raw Material Changes not being recognized
    - WIP value Changes not being recognized
    - Proper Cost Updates not being performed (MFG STD should always equal
INV STD)
    - Improper AFI setup (INV or MFG)
    - Inadequate AFI setup: missed something or your company is using a
menu
option that they should not
    - Incorrect route data codes in MSP04 vs MSP05
    - Improper error correction of "Bad Entries"  (posting it one way and
reversing it another)
    - Negative Inventory
    - Service Pack 3 corrections ("M")
    - Foreign Currency "M" transactions not posting to ledger on
consolidated companies
To this day, I still receive calls from former Clients on AFI.
Mike, you are not asking the right GEAC / JBA consultant.  Kurt Severe, out
of Chicago is your man and probably the ONLY GEAC person that can help you
in your efforts.
Good Luck, everyone!
