222. Receive by Purchase Order posts cost-only changes to lots

Revised the process of updating the cost of lots so that the cost can be recalculated if the Purchase Order cost is changed separately from the receipt of the inventory. Previously receiving a Purchase Order with a cost change would update the lot cost by averaging the value of the new inventory with the old, but this could only be done if the inventory and the cost update were posted together. The default behavior of the cost-update process has been changed so that additional information will be retained on the Purchase Order line items so that the lot cost can be re-averaged if the Purchase Order cost is changed sometime after receipt of the inventory using the "Receive by Exception" feature. Disabling this System Option will restore the original behavior where a cost change will only affect the lot cost if it is posted along with the receipt of inventory.

 

IMPORTANT This option only works when filling a single lot and does not support filling multiple lots.
