Cost Methods Definition for Bulk Items

You need to define all cost methods specific to an item. You can create an unlimited number of cost methods. The system stores cost methods in the Item Cost File table (F4105).

If you delete the Sales and Inventory cost method, a warning appears indicating that the inventory value will drop to zero. The system does not delete the cost record, but updates it to a zero cost.

If you change the Sales and Inventory cost method, the system creates general ledger and item ledger transactions to reflect the change.

You can set processing options to display these formats:

  • One cost method at a time, which also displays all locations and lots for the item.

  • Multiple cost methods per item.
