Surcharges as financial transaction
This topic describes a specific type of financial transaction, namely surcharges. Especially the value of the Project From field is discussed here.
For the following transactions, the Project From field is always empty:
| Financial transaction | Transaction origin |
|---|---|
| Item surcharge issue | Warehouse issue |
| Warehouse surcharge issue | Warehouse issue |
| Item surcharge receipt | Warehouse receipt |
| Warehouse surcharge receipt | Warehouse receipt |
Surcharges are defined in the Item Surcharges (ticpr1110m000) session. Financial transactions for surcharges are done simultaneously with a physical transaction. When an item is moved from or to a warehouse, and some surcharges are defined, the transactions mentioned in the table are booked. Also when surcharges are defined for the item itself, this value must be booked.
The Project From field is always empty because these transactions are only adding value to the WIP and the actual costs of the project displayed in the Project To field. Actually, the surcharges are coming from 'nothing', which means that the Project From field is empty, and they are booked on a project displayed in the Project To field.
Example 1
- PCS project: A
- Warehouse: WH1
- Surcharge receipt for Warehouse WH1: €10,00 (fixed amount)
- Customized item: A_ITEM1
- Price of A_ITEM1: €100,00 (piece)
Suppose you purchase one item A_ITEM1, and this item is put into warehouse WH1. An amount of €100,00 must be booked in inventory, and €10,00 of surcharges must be added to the inventory value of item A_ITEM1.
Example 2
Take example 1 as a basis for example 2.
- PCS project: A
- Warehouse: WH1
- Surcharge issue for Warehouse WH1: €5,00 (fixed amount)
Suppose item A_ITEM1 is transferred from WH1 to WH2. For WH2 no surcharge is defined but the €5,00 of surcharge issue must be booked on WH2
