When cost is changed; for several reasons, a cost adjustment record is thrown in SEE30303 to modify the cost of an existing cost layer. These documents could be;
- Document Type 8 | Cost Adjustment from POP Shipment
- Document Type 11 | Cost Adjustment from POP Invoice
Let me give you an example,
You receive an item through the "receiving transaction entry" with an initial cost (50) per item, although, when you invoiced the shipment, the vendor increased the initial price from 50 to 52. When you enter/match the receiving above, a cost adjustment document from POP invoice will be thrown in SEE30303 [Historical Inventory Trial Balance], to adjust the shipment cost. On the other hand, this document will be linked to a Journal Entry to adjust cost in General Ledger.
There are other reasons in which cost adjustment records are thrown in Inventory HITB, such as "Adjust Cost Utility".
In order to check your Inventory Versus GL, please check the following post on my Blog;
Please be noted that matching Inventory to GL shall be only done after the following inventory tables are reconciled internally;
- IV30300
- IV10200
- IV10201
- SEE30303
I will be glad to provide any further help if required. Please e-mail me on mahmoodsaadi@live.com regarding any explanation on the issues above.
