Hi JosephE , if these are manufactured products, and you use autobuild, are the autobuilds being recorded at lower costs than before? Are any component costs not being included?
Hi Mike
These are manufactured products, and we are using autobuild. The the autobuilds don't seem to be recorded at lower costs than before and all the component costs arebeing included that were before.
Hi JosephE , can you pick a good example of a product with this issue, then run the item register detail report for a suitable (long) date range to Excel, and add a column for the unit cost of each transaction. If possible, pick an item that you can report from its beginning in the file
1. Does the report agree to the screen register?
2. Does the change in unit costs provide any clues?
(Sales transactions pick up the average cost/unit from the item information at the time the sale is recorded).
Do you use multiple locations?
Thanks again MIke
Interesting results for the Item Register report. There is a whole bunch of transactions in the periods in whch the Margin has dropped where the amount on certain sale transactions is zero even though the quantity of stock on hand is going down by large amounts.
I have attached a screenshot.
Any thoughts on why and how this could be happening?
