Replacement Cost
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

If the "Update All Locations" flag is set to "Y" in "Inventory Setup" in SYSTEM MANAGEMENT (10.2.4.2 field 1), the Replacement Cost is recorded in All locations rather than just the Receiving location.


A problem may exist if more than one location is Recording New Unit Costs for this Vendor at different costs. If this is the case, then ONLY the main Receiving Location should record the cost when receiving.


When a discount is taken at Receiving, the new Replacement Cost (Price Code 98) will be the cost before the discount. The cost after the discount is used to calculate the new Warehouse (Average) Cost (Price Code 99).


You may enter the Receiving Discount by a Dollar Amount or Percentage. If a Dollar amount is entered, the program will automatically calculate the Discount Percent and enter it into the Discount Percent field. To enter a Dollar amount, you must prefix the dollar sign ($) to the amount.
