Inventory Variance Sequence

The inventory variance sequence number. For a particular order origin, order, order line, order line sequence, receipt, and receipt line, one or more variances can occur. Each variance is numbered by the inventory variance sequence displayed in this field. In this way, you can see which variance caused a particular financial transaction.

This field obtains value 1 for the first combination of a particular origin, order, order line, order sequence, receipt, and receipt line. For the second combination of the same origin, order, order line, order sequence, receipt and receipt line combination, and so on, this field obtains value 2. For example, if a production order is closed with a price variance and an efficiency variance, LN generates two records, with sequence 1 and 2. If the production order is opened again, LN generates two new records, with sequence 3 and 4.
