IY2-01 I/Y PROCESSING
30101 Adjustments

 

PURPOSE

 

The Adjustments Program is used to make adjustments to inventory quantities and values. All inventory adjustments posting should be followed immediately by a register print to check for accuracy, and then updated. It is good procedure to complete adjustments batches quickly. If batches are left open, changes in inventory due to receipts and sales may result in inaccurate adjustments.

 

The Adjustments Program is accessed from:

  • Inventory Processing Menu.

 

PROCEDURE - BATCH ACCESS

 

Select Adjustments from the Inventory Processing menu. You are taken to the batch selection screen. If there are existing batches, the program displays the header of the first batch on file (see PROCEDURE - BATCH MODIFICATION). If there are no existing batches, the program initiates a new batch with the following fields completed.

 

COMPANY NUMBER

 

Defaults to the current company number.

 

BATCH NUMBER

 

Defaults to next available number or displays existing batch number.

 

BATCH STATUS

 

Displays batch status.

 

If you are creating a new batch, batch status defaults to NEW BATCH.

 

If you access an existing batch, batch status may be any of the following:

  • OPEN BATCH - The batch is available for further processing.
  • IN USE BY - Tm## - The batch is open on terminal indicated.
  • TO BE PRINTED - The batch registers have not been printed.
  • REGISTER PRINTING - The batch register is in process of being printed.
  • UPDATE STARTED - The batch is in process of being updated.
STORE CODE

 

Enter store code for which you want to post adjustments.

 

In a single store environment, this defaults to the normal store code.

FIELDS

 

BATCH#

 

Displays current batch number.

 

CONTROL

 

Displays value, if any, entered in CONTROL TOTAL field of batch header.

 

ACTUAL

 

Displays current value of all items entered in detail line fields.

 

LEFT

 

Displays difference between values displayed in CONTROL and ACTUAL fields.

 

If you enter an accurate control total during batch header entry, the value of the LEFT field will equal .00 when you have complete detail data entry correctly.

 

 

SEQ #

 

[Enter] to automatically display next sequential number for detail entry.

 

LINE # + CR

 

If you enter an already existing sequence number, the following options are available.

 

 

** PRESS 'CR' TO CONTINUE; 'D' TO DELETE

 

[Enter] to return to SEQ #.

 

You can then press [Enter] to add a new detail line.

 

 

"D" to delete detail line.

 

DELETE Y/N:

 

"Y" to delete the line.

 

"N" to not delete the line.

 

[F2] to display detail lines.

 

** ENTER STARTING SEQUENCE# (CR FOR FIRST; F4 TO END):

 

Enter number of beginning line to display.

 

[Enter] to begin display from first line.

 

[F4] to return to detail display screen.

 

[F4] to exit batch header selection screen.

 

PRODUCT

 

Enter product code of item to post adjustments.

 

Alternatively, you can enter the product's QUICK CODE, UPC CODE, or LOGICAL CODE.

 

 

[F5] to display propduct inquiry for selection.

 

After you have selected a product, its description is displayed at the bottom of the screen.

 

 

LOCATION

 

Displays store code where product is physically located.

 

Depending on your system configuration, this field may be empty.

 

 

QUANTITY

 

Enter quantity of product affected by adjustment.

 

UNIT

 

Enter unit of measure corresponding to quantity to be adjusted.

 

[Enter] to accept displayed default unit of measure.

 

If the product has only one unit of measure, the UNIT field is automatically set to that unit of measure. When multiple units of measure are available for the product the system displays them at the bottom of the screen for selection.

 

 

COST

 

Enter cost for item.

 

[Enter] to accept default figure (average cost, last cost).

 

[F9] to accept last recorded cost for item.

 

UNIT

 

Enter unit of measure corresponding to cost of product.


VALUE

 

Displays automatically calculated total value of product affected by adjustment.

 

The program calculates this total after the cost and cost unit figures are entered. Value adjusted = quantity adjusted times the cost. The program will allow the operator to modify the adjustment value. If the value is changed from the calculated value, the transactional cost will be recalculated based on the new value divided by the quantity. This may be particularly useful when you know the quantity and value of the adjustment, but don't know the exact cost.

 

 

REASON

 

Enter reason code for making adjustment.

 

[Enter] to accept default code entered at batch header.

 

[F5] to display list of reason codes for selection.

** OK TO UPDATE? (CR TO UPDATE; F3 TO BACKUP; F4 TO BYPASS):

 

[Enter] to accept detail line.

 

The prompt is positioned in the SEQ# field of the next detail line.

 

 

[F3] to modify data in line.

 

Press [F3] at any field to return to the previous field.

 

 

[F4] to delete line and cancel all data entered in line.

 

When you have completed data entry press [F4]. You are then returned to the batch header screen with the batch you have just created or modified selected and the batch options displayed (see PROCEDURE - BATCH CREATION, PROCEDURE - BATCH MODIFICATION, and PROCEDURE - BATCH OPTIONS).

 

 

PROCEDURE - REGISTER PRINTING AND UPDATE

 

The adjustment batch registers consist of the following.

 

DETAIL REGISTER

 

This register prints a detailed report showing each product affected by the adjustment. The program calculates an adjusted cost for each product affected based on the quantity and value of the adjustments made.

 

MOVEMENT REGISTER

 

This register prints quantity, value and cost information corresponding to before and after the adjustment(s).

 

GENERAL LEDGER POSTING SUMMARY

 

This register prints a summary report showing how the general ledger will be affected by the adjustment(s). The program uses the general ledger codes defined in the A/P currency code and the product group file.

 

Once the registers have been printed, the program returns to the batch selection screen. The registers should be reviewed for such things as invalid costs (detail register) indicating that average costs might be incorrect, and inaccurate quantities (movement register) indicating that inventory might not be up to date.

 

Once the registers have been reviewed, entries can be modified or deleted if required or the batch can be updated if no further corrections are needed.

 

The adjustments batch updates the following files.

 

INVENTORY FILES

 

On-Hand quantities, values and average costs and product statistics are affected.

 

GENERAL LEDGER FILES

 

Inventory is debited and/or credited. Inventory adjustments is debited and/or credited.

 

If your system is configured with multi-site integration, the adjustment register batch is transferred to the head office for updating.

 

 

REGISTER PRINTING

The batch options menu displays (see PROCEDURE - BATCH OPTIONS). To print the batch registers, select "R". You are taken to the printer selection menu.
