Equate Balance of Receipts with Inventory Level (tdipu0201m000)

Use this session to equate the cumulative purchase receipts with the inventory on hand.

The cumulative quantity is increased each time a quantity is invoiced. The quantity is never decreased, so the quantity can become very high. In this case, new receipts no longer affect the average purchase price/landed cost. To calculate realistic average purchase prices and landed costs for the specified item types and items, you can decrease the cumulative receipts by equating its value to the inventory on hand.

You must execute this session periodically only if the following are applicable:

  • The Method of Calculating Average Purchase Price is Purchases (Cum.) in the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session.
  • The Method of Calculating Average Landed Cost is Cumulative Purchases in the Landed Costs Parameters (tclct0100m000) session.

The average purchase price plus the average landed cost can be used to calculate an item's standard cost.

Average prices (Avg. P) are calculated as follows:

(Cum.Receipts * Old Avg.P) + (Qty Received * Order Price) รท (Cum.Receipts + Qty Received)
Avg.PNew average price
Cum.ReceiptsCumulative receipts
Qty ReceivedQuantity received or approved

  • You can view average landed costs by item in the Item Actual Landed Costs (tclct3600m000) session.
