| Actual cost price for receipt postingThe setting of the End Item Receipt Posting check box in
the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session and the valuation method can affect system performance and
database growth. You can distinguish the following situations: End Item Receipt Posting check box
is selected and valuation method is not FTP If the End Item Receipt Posting check box is selected, and the
inventory valuation method on item/warehouse level is an actual costing valuation method such as FIFO, LIFO, MAUC, lot price or serial price, only a limited number of variance postings
takes place because the end items are received in inventory at their actual
production order costs. This means no price variance postings and efficiency
postings take place, but additional calculation office variances can occur,
especially if the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box is
selected. The posting methods for variances defined in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session are not used. End Item Receipt Posting check box
is selected and valuation method is FTP If the End Item Receipt Posting check box is selected, and the
inventory valuation method on item/warehouse level is FTP, variance posting is done by SFC. LN processes inventory
variances, which you can view in the Inventory Variances (whina1516m000) session. End Item Receipt Posting check box
is cleared and the valuation method is not FTP If the End Item Receipt Posting check box is cleared, and the
inventory valuation method on item/warehouse level is an actual costing valuation method such as FIFO, LIFO, MAUC,
lot price or serial price, variance posting is done by SFC. LN processes inventory
variances, which you can view in the Inventory Variances (whina1516m000) session. End Item Receipt Posting check box
is cleared and valuation method is FTP If the End Item Receipt Posting check box is cleared, and the
inventory valuation method on item/warehouse level is FTP, production variances
are likely to occur and are logged according to the settings of the variance
parameters in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session.
This results in additional postings.
