PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Click on cost button, does not reflect change.
Adding up the costs where the adjustment was made the costs are different
from what shows on the job.
Steps to duplicate:
1. create job
2. add costs to job
3. ship
4. close job
5. receive AP invoice
6. Cost was lower than PO
7. Reopen Job
8. Make an adjustment to Job material
9. Close Job
Material Cost breakdown does not appear to be correct - job cost does not
appear to be correct.
On the Production Detail Report, the total material quantity is correct, but
the material cost breakdown does not include the ADJ-MTL transaction. The
ADJ-MTL transaction was made with a quantity of 0, a unit cost of 0, and a
negative extended cost.
SCR 2654
Cairo SCR 1773 changed Job Material Adjustment (jc/jce30-ma.w) to reconcile
unit costs with the adjustjment's extended cost, to avoid numerical
discrepancies. This works well except when there is no change in quantity.
If the quantity is 0, the unit cost fields should be the cost breakdown of
the extended cost, as if the quantity were 1.
Version 5.00.326 (we're on 5.00.333)
Support recommends the following procedure for negative material
adjustments...
The situation is as follows: Making a negative material adjustment
Job Material
Material Adjustment
Extended Amount entered as a negative number ($xx,xxx.xx)
with a zero (0) unitprice.
but the negative is not calculated as a negative in the Production Detail
Report.
What happens:
Job Tracker Material cost is overstated...
WIP Reconciliation and GL Postings are affected (inaccurate)...
Production Detail Report - material cost breakdown is overstated...
First: as of last week we were the 4th company to report this problem and
are looking for others to voice their concern.
Second: has anyone developed a means to accurately state material cost in
jobcost reporting??
I'm using the JobAsmbl table to calculate:
LaborCost = TLALaborCost + LLALaborCost
BurdenCost = TLABurdenCost + LLABurdenCost
MaterialCost = TLAMaterialCost + LLAMaterialCost
SubcontractCost = TLCSubcontractCost + LLASubcontractCost
need to account for the negative ExtendedCost from PartTran in my
materialcost calc.
Any feedback or ideas are welcome and greatly appreciated.
