Options
Form — Costing Tab
This tab lets you:
-
Specify when the program should cost inventory — either each time you post an inventory transaction or only when you run Day End Processing.
-
Specify when it should create sub-ledger and audit information.
Note: These settings have a large impact on how Sage ERP Accpac handles inventory transactions. They apply to all inventory transactions created in Inventory Control, Order Entry, and Purchase Orders.
If you cost inventory during posting, sales order posting and purchase order posting will take longer.
If you create sub-ledger batches during posting, you may also create and post A/R invoice batches with each O/E invoice and A/P invoice batches with each purchase order invoice.
For information on other processing options, see selecting processing options.
Changing costing options
After setup, you can change your costing options, with the following exceptions and restrictions:
-
You can switch from costing during posting to costing during day end processing at any time.
However, you must run Day End Processing before switching to costing during posting to make sure that you complete item costing and to make sure that all G/L transactions have been created properly.
