Reporting Pending Adjustments
Report pending adjustments to simulate a change in standard costs. This launches two processes, one to simulate a cost update from the cost type you specify to the Frozen cost type, and one to launch the Inventory, Intransit, and WIP Standard Cost Adjustment reports. These reports enable you to preview the changes the standard cost update would perform for current inventory balances.
These same three reports are run as part of a cost update. In this case, the reports show adjustments made to the inventory valuation by the cost update process.
To report pending adjustments:
2. In the Parameters window, enter the cost type for the cost update.
3. Select an item range to perform a simulated standard cost update and generate preliminary adjustment reports for:
All items: This is the default.
Based on rollup items: Items that have Based on Rollup turned on in the Frozen cost type. This is only available if you use Inventory with Bills of Material.
Category: All items in a category you specify.
Not based on rollup items: Items that have Based on Rollup turned off in the Frozen cost type. This is only available if you use Inventory with Bills of Material.
Range of items: Range of items you specify.
Specific item: Specific item you specify.
Zero cost items: Items with zero cost in the Frozen cost type.
Item costs only: This is the default.
Resource, overhead, and item costs: This is only available if you use Inventory with Bills of Material. If you use Work in Process, choose this option to reflect resource and overhead cost changes for actual charges to standard and non-standard asset jobs.
6. Do one of the following:
- If you selected Specific item in the Item Range field, enter the specific item to include in the simulated cost update.
- If you selected Category in the Item Range field, enter a specific category.
- If you selected Range of items in the Item Range field, enter values for Item From and Item To. A simulated standard cost update is performed for all items in this range, inclusive.
