Log for Cost Adjustment changes

Is there a way in the Cost Adjustment screen to see the list of historical changes made to the standard unit material cost?

I tried using the Transaction Log from the actions menu, but it doesn’t show for the specific part number & the amount I’m looking for.

Thanks.

In the part transaction history, there is a entry for a cost adjustment there. I think you should be able to get what you need there. (depending on what you need)

Thanks, but where did you find that? Is that a different screen or within the Cost Adjustment screen?

Just right click on the part number, open with, part transaction history. You’ll have all of the other junk in there from normal transactions, but you can filter the grid.

Ah, got it. Thanks.

Just checked, and the entry I’m looking for isn’t there. Still showing the old Standard Unit Material cost. Not the current.

Is this for an adjustment that you just made? Or are you trying to track down another adjustment? The reason I ask, is that you can set the costs with a UBAQ and it will not make that adjustment. We do that here when we have a new part that has no cost (we are average costed) to make sure that if the part gets issued before it’s received, it doesn’t get issued at $0 cost. I don’t want the adjustments because it will lock the part into existence and I want to hold off as long as I can in case there is a change.

Is it possible that you have something going on where the adjustment is happening outside of the cost adjustment, or cost roll-up screen?

The part that I’m looking at had a cost of $0 as of 9/17/2018. Some time after that, the cost was changed to $2 in the Cost Adjustment screen. What I’m trying to do is find the day that it happened and the entry in some sort of log for an audit that we’re going through.

I’m assuming you are standard costed? You should be able to parse through your transaction history and see the costs on the transactions and narrow it down, it should switch at some point. I’m not sure why the cost adjustment wouldn’t show up in there though.

Yes, standard costed.

Me too, no idea how to explain this now. Thanks for the help though.
