Recognizing Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)

You can recognize more, less, or all of the cost of goods sold (COGS) for a sales order invoice. Review these steps to recognize less and leave the remainder open, recognize less and close the remainder, recognize more, or recognize all COGS:

  1. From the Revenue Recognition Processing menu (G03B18), select Revenue Recognition.

  2. On the Work with Invoice Revenue Recognition form, select a record and select Recognize COGS from the Row menu.

    The system displays the COGS account information for the invoice pay items in the grid. If the invoice is a foreign invoice, the system displays both the domestic and foreign amounts. If the invoice is a domestic invoice, the system displays only the domestic amount.

  3. Enter the G/L date for the COGS transaction. The system uses this value as the G/L date of the invoice.

  4. To recognize less COGS and leave the remainder open:

    • In the grid, enter a value in the Recognized COGS Amount field that is less than the value in the Remaining Amount field.

    • Click OK to save the sales order invoice.

  5. To recognize less COGS and close the remainder:

    • In the grid, enter a value in the Recognized COGS Amount field that is less than the value in the Remaining Amount field.

    • In the grid, enter a value in the Amount Not Recognized field that is equal to the value in the Remaining Amount field.

    • Click OK to save the sales order invoice.

  6. To recognize more COGS:

    • In the grid, enter a value in the Recognized COGS Amount field that is more than the value in the Remaining Amount field.

    • Click OK to save the sales order invoice.

  7. To recognize all COGS:

    • In the grid, enter the same value in the Recognized COGS Amount field as the system displays in the Remaining Amount field.

    • Click OK to save the sales order invoice.

Note:

The system displays a value in the Revenue Rec Status field that indicates the current COGS status of an invoice pay item. Values are:

0: Not to be recognized

1: Ready to be recognized

When you enter and post an invoice, the system displays 1 in this field.

2: Partially recognized

If you recognize part of the invoice amount, the system changes the value in this field to 2.

3: Recognition complete

If you recognize the full invoice amount, the system changes the value in this field to 3.
