Hi Tac,
you may have a look at this thread :
https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=20603446&messageID=6532368
especially at the posting of Jeyakanthan:
Customer Cannot Issue Item From Warehouse
Item Cost = 0 and Allow Stock Release without Item Cost is disabled
Symptoms
Error message on adding outgoing inventory document:
"Cannot issue item from WH which is managed by batches or serial numbers".
Customer cannot issue an item from warehouse (with some transaction decreasing on-hand quantity). When issuing item, customer cannot select an item batch or serial no. although it exists and has enough available quantity.
Resolution
Check setup options in SAP Business One:
If in Company Details > Allow Stock Release Without Item Cost is selected.
What the valuation method is in Item Master Data > Inventory Data Tab.
Check Item Cost:
For moving average price (MAP) and standard price, please check Item Cost in Item Master Data > Inventory Data Tab. If customer selected option: "Manage Item Cost per Warehouse" in Company Details, check the Item Cost for relevant warehouse in the tab row.
For FIFO item, please check the Item Cost of open FIFO layers. In version 2004 C and 2007 A, Item Cost can be seen for remaining Open Quantity of FIFO layers in Inventory Revaluation window after selecting relevant item and warehouse.
For all versions, please run following SQL query:
SELECT T0.[ItemCode], T0.[Warehouse], T0.[OpenQty], T0.[OpenValue], T0.[OpenValue]/ T0.[OpenQty] as ItemCost FROM OINM T0 WHERE T0.[ItemCode] =[%0]
If the ItemCost is zero and Allow Stock Release Without Item Cost is not selected, Customer needs to change Item Cost to a non-zero value.

Item Cost update Coneversion Error

Hi All,
I am doing item Cost Update conversion, while doing this i am getting the Following only one error for all the items.
Error Explanation - 'The default cost type for the cost type is not valid.'
Error Code - CST_INVALID_DEFCSTTYPE
i am inserting the data in the interface table 'CST_ITEM_CST_DTLS_INTERFACE'
in this table i am taking only the below columns
INVENTORY_ITEM_ID,
ORGANIZATION_ID,
COST_TYPE,
RESOURCE_CODE,
USAGE_RATE_OR_AMOUNT,
COST_ELEMENT_ID,
PROCESS_FLAG
and i am doing this only for materail cost, is there any extra columns i have to take in the interface table for doing with out getting the above error.
please provide me the data also for the extra columns.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Anushka

the above error can come only when the row being imported is missing any of "lot size" or "based on rollup flag" or
"shrinkage rate" or "inventory asset flag" values. Most probably it could be a setup issue.
when any of these values are missing, the values are defaulted from the default cost type
of the current cost type into which item costs are being imported into. If the
default cost type too does not have the values set for the above mentioned
columns which are having Null values, this message is displayed.

Item cost not found for one or more items - Inventory Posting

Good Day Mentors,
My user has encountered an error during Inventory Posting and its "Item cost not found for one or more items".
The specific Message ID from SAP's System Message Log is 10001287.
I found a similar post which addresses this error here.
But unfortunately it did not help me solve my user's problem.
I already checked if the items had a defined "Item Cost" in the Item Master Data Inventory Tab, and they all have "Item Cost" defined.
I'm not sure if this will help, but below is the Inventory Audit Report of one of the items that is throwing the "Item cost not found" error.
I am not a business consultant neither am I literate in accounting, so thanks for the patience.
SAP Version: 9.0 PL5
Valuation Method: Moving Average
Thanks in advance!

Hi Augusto and Raviraj,
I've already verified in our production database the points you made:
- Is the "Manage Item cost per warehouse" selected in the Basic Initialization Screen?
YES
- Is the "Manage Inventory by Warehouse" ticked/checked in the "Inventory Data" tab of the "Item Master Data" screen?
YES
* I apologize for not have been able to give this information upfront.
Anyway, the database only has one warehouse at the moment.
I've checked the items, like the item in the screen shot above, and it does have an item cost.
Below is the screenshot of the sample item from my original post,
Thanks in advance!

Error In Updating Item Cost

Hi all,
   I am getting this message when I attempt to update a particular items cost in Inventory.
Field cannot be updated(ODBC - 1029) [Message 131-183]
   This happens only for a handfull of Items.
Here are the details :-
SAP Version : 2005A SP 00 PL 34
SQL Server Version : 2005 SP1
Set G/L Accounts by : Warehouse
Valuation method : Standard
When I ran the query pertaining to the update directly in Enterprice manager, it worked fine. but not from SAP. Here is the query.
exec sp_executesql N'UPDATE T0 SET
T0.[AvgPrice] = @P1,
T0.[ValidComm] = NULL ,
T0.[FrozenComm] = NULL
FROM [dbo].[OITM] T0 WHERE T0.[ItemCode] = @P2 ',N'@P1 char(21),@P2 nvarchar(40)','250.780000           ',N'DF5007SC'
Noted that the fileds [ValidComm]   and [FrozenComm] are nvarchar fileds and allows null. Note that the OITM table has User defined fields, allowing null but I dont see how they are affected as the query above is updating the Average price. Wondering though whether SAP should update AvgPrice as the Valuation method is standard and noting Moving Average ?
I checked out the forum for information and found the same error had occured in different modules and tried out the solutions recommended but it did not solve this issue.
Any help is greatly appreciated !
Cheers !

Hi Rahul,
Yes.Upgrading is one option, but the customer is unwilling to do so as it cost them.

Managing item cost per warehouse.

Hello,
I have a client who recently migrated from SAP Business one 8.81 to 9.0 PL8. And now they want to manage items cost per warehouse.This is because although the cost and quantities are okay at company level, at warehouse level there are now some negative values as they have been in operation for over 3 years. In the setups, I found out that the manage item cost per warehouse check box settings was not ticked. How do i ensure that this check box is ticked and what procedures do i take to make this happen. The client has more than 2,000 items and about 30 warehouses.
Most of the recommendations in the discussion forum talk about creating a new database, After creating it, how do you go about it. what are the procedures involved?
Kind regards,
Maureen

Hi Maureen,
This setting one time setting and you can not change once Transaction is posted in System. Please also check below link.

Manage Item Cost per Warehouse

Previous posts have confirmed that it is not possible to change the Manage Item Cost per Warehouse option once any inventory transactions have been posted. One entry posted in Feb 2010 (below) even offered a link to other "Irreversible Ticks" (although that link is now broken). This limitation is required in order to preserve the relational integrity of the system, within its design architecture.
Manage item cost per warehouse
If a database has been in operation for several years with company-level costing, and business changes now force tracking costs by warehouse, I see no option other than creating a new database with the per-warehouse option, then loading items, inventory, GL, etc. Unfortunately, all history (GL transactions, document history, change log, etc.) is no longer available in that database.
Is anyone aware of SAP plans or tools to support any other alternatives to this kind of business change?
Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,
I am afraid creating a new database is your only option.
For old data, you may still keep access for certain reports. All open items has to be imported to new db. It is a kind of manual archiving. Your database performance will gain a lot though.
Thanks,
Gordon

Should the Goods Receipt Inventory Transaction include Item Cost selection?

When processing a Goods Receipt inventory transaction, the Price List pull down does not display "Item Cost" as a selection.
The user can make the Unit Price field visible and active, compare the cost displayed from the Price List selected to the current Item cost and update if different. This forces the user to be very cost cognizant as none of the price lists available are guaranteed to be equal to the current item cost.
Update of the record can cause a cost revaluation in moving average or a cost varinance account adjustment in a standard cost system.
The companies I have talked to would prefer to select Item Cost in the price list field as they can do in the Stock Posting.
I am looking for further input on this.
Thanks,
Jim

Item cost showing R 3 971.77 instead of R 1.88.

Hi All
We have a problem where one of the items is showing an incorrect item cost amount, instead of showing R 1.88 it has R 3 9 71.77. This might be due to the incorrect item cost entered initially by the user.
When creating any marketing document the journal posted is using this incorrect amount and thus making the account balances incorrect.
I did an item revaluation for this item to R 1.88 while there was 456 items in stock, then when I looked at the journal it posted there was a debit on the Stock Diff account and also on a credit on the Inventory account.
We are not satisfied with this journal posting, since the extra R 3969.89 is also posted on the accounts how can we deal with this issue.
System Setting are:
SBO 2007A SP0 PL42
Inventory Valuation : Moving average
Item Management : Item groups
Allow negative stock : Yes

Hi,
Check that particular Item's Last Evaluated Price.
And Also Check the Current Item Cost.
There may be plenty of reasons for this case.
1. That Particular Item May Revaluated
2. Any Goods Issue or Goods Reciept has created with Wrong Price (May be in 15 - 16 Thousands)
3. There may be a chance, that the Item is recently converted to FIFO method and after some transaction again it is Recovered to Moving Average.
4. Also Check your opening balance entries for that particular item.
To Solve this Problem...
1. If Opening Balance Qty and Price for this entered wrongly you can Adjust in Opening balance Window itself
2. If Some Other Reason, You can do Material revaluation to change the Item Cost.

Item Cost decimal point precision not correct

Hello,
I tried finding a thread in here that would answer my question, but I haven't found one yet.
What I'm noticing on certain Item Master records is that the Item Cost isn't being calculated using the correct amount of decimal places. I've set it to display 4 decimal places in the System Initialization area for Prices, Amounts, and Rates but that just tacks on more zeroes. I also haven't set any of the currency settings to anything other than "Default". Here is an example of what is happening and hopefully it will be clearer what is going on.
I have an item that we have purchased for 0.22 dollars and a Customs Group precentage set to 10%. This should result in an Item Cost of 0.2420 dollars. It is actually truncating the result to two decimal places and storing it as 0.2400 dollars. I need it to calculate correctly to four decimal places. We're using Moving Average for the Item Cost calculation and in this case all individual Item Costs are the same from PO to PO for the same part (so the Moving Average shouldn't figure in at all) although that might not always be the case.
This is only happening on certain items and I'm not sure what the difference is between the incorrect and correct ones. If someone has any idea why this is happening this way only for some parts, please let me know. Any information would be much appreciated. By the way, I'm using SBO2005A SP01 PL31.
Thanks in advance,
Brent

Thank you everyone who has replied.
Gordon, I don't really have a good way to find out how many are affected. This could be a very big issue or a small one. I'll look into finding a pattern probably on Monday and see if there's something down that road.
Jesper, this was something that came up in my mind before posting originally, but for all I've seen, it seems like everything should be calculating to 4 decimal places. As for the 6 settings, I have Amounts set to 2 (although I've tried 4 and it didn't seem to fix the problem so I reset it back to 2), Prices and Rates as 4, Quantities as 0, Percent and Units as 3. I think these are fine as is. I could be wrong though. The other reason I don't think these are a problem is because only certain items are having problems. Hence why I need to find some sort of pattern.
Bishal, I am not a Channel Partner, just a Customer. So it won't let me login to get to that. If you have another way of getting that to me, then that would be great. If not, thank you for trying.
I probably won't be doing anything with this until Monday. So there won't be a whole lot of updates until then at least. Thank you all for your responses and hopefully soon I can figure this out.

Decimal Places in Item Cost must be 6 characters while in Journal Entry 2.

I have the following problem:
Accounting needs to see and work with 2 decimal places, but the item cost is needed in 6 decimals.
If I register a A/P Invoice and i go to the Journal Remark, the Journal Entry should be in 2 decimals. If i look for the Item Cost on the Wharehouse this cost should be in 6 decimals.
Is there a way to handle Accounting in 2 units and Cost in 6 Units
Thank You very much

Hi Saul,
The request appears illogical, how can the accountant work with 2 decimal places & the item valuation is held with 6? The stock account with 2 decimals will never match the stock audit report with 6 decimals.
I'm afraid the SAP Business One core functionality does not cater for this need. There are no 'behind the scenes' journal entries. A JE is legally binding so you need to decide whether you wish to work with the most accurate calculations regarding item cost as possible (6 decimals) or accommodate the accountants & work with 2 decimals in the journals.
You might want to take the nature of the stock into consideration, if there are huge quantities at small individual prices 6 decimals might be better, if you use mainly standard cost &/or have no major cost fluctuations when using MAP/FIFO, 2 decimals might be sufficient.
All the best,
Kerstin

Actual item cost for batched items

Hi everyone,
I'm not entirely sure if there is an easy solution to this, however we have a client where their stock consumption method does not match their stock costing method therefore they can never really get a true stock valuation from SAP.
They currently have their items set to FIFO however they don't always use the oldest stock as its not always feasible to do so.
Due to this, they cannot really find out the age of the items in stock as SAP assumes they use the oldest stock first. To get around this I've suggested using either serial numbers for big items and batch numbers for the smaller items which will allow them to track when it came in to stock and whether it has gone out or not. This works well and allows the users to find out the age of the stock. However, the cost calculated in the journals and posted to cost of sales is picking up the cost from the oldest open layer in the FIFO (OINM) table and not the cost from the layer from the associated batch.
Is there any way we can get the system to pick up the actual cost of the item being dispatched?
If not, we may just have to create a report which looks at all open batches, get the incoming cost and get a stock valuation that way.
Has anybody faced similar issues?
Regards,
Adrian

Hi Marcella,
Many thanks for your reply.
I have looked in to both Standard and Moving Average and ran through various scenarios but unfortunately neither is exactly what the client wants and neither allows them to get a true stock valuation by item. The client would ideally like the actual cost to be posted, but I'm afraid its either the oldest layer, average cost or a standard cost posted.
Some items could possibly be standard as the cost doesn't alter too much, however some item costs vary rapidly dependent upon things such as exchange rates and other market influences.
I think this may have to be done via reports.
Regards,
Adrian

Form Settings - Item Cost on Sales Order row

Hello,
I used form settings to add the field Item Cost onto my AR invoice row. I tried to add the same with Sales Order form settings but the field is not available when I go to Form Settings. Is there any way to add it? I'm using 8.81 PL09.
Thank You
Naomi xxx

Hi Naomi,
This is by design. If you want to add, you need a row level UDF plus FMS to display. Because Sales Order is not an accounting document, that is why this field has been omitted. Item cost is available to Delivery and AR Invoice.
Thanks,
Gordon

Hi all,
The scenario is,
when the user is trying to add the issue for production system is showing error item cost not
found.The item which is issued is Inventory + purchase item with manual issue method.The valuation
method for that item is FIFO.since the valuation method is FIFO,error related to item cost should
not occur.
Since the valuation method is FIFO.Item cost error should not occur.
The error related to item cost must not occur at the time of issue for production.
