Corrected product cost update

An issue is resolved where the GL cost was not updated correctly for Order-as needed and Special products when the Do Not Update Tied Order Cost for Specials in PO/WT Receiving option was selected in SA Administrator Options-Products-Costs. This option was added to Distribution SX.e in version 2021.01. Any products that were received prior to the option being selected and then invoiced after the selection were recorded in inventory with a zero GL cost. This caused incorrect Inventory and Cost of Good Sold postings in GL, and skewed the product's average cost valuation.

This has been corrected so that the GL cost obtained during Purchase Receipt of Cost Entry is always updated for the product, regardless of this setting.

Note: A utility is available to update the received GL cost for any open, tied OAN and Special lines to correct them before invoice processing. Before you activate this AO option, contact an Infor Support representative for assistance with running this utility.
