Why I should update the Inventory Opening Balance before keyin documents

Dear Experts,
I was adviced to key the Inventory OB first before I key any marketing documents. Is there any impact if I key in the Inventory OB after I key in some marketing docuemnts?
Please help explain.
Warmest Regards,
Chinho

Chinho,
If you are using a FIFO or Moving Average costing method, the Items cost is updated only when you import your OB and initialize with its COST.  First and foremost, Delivery, Invoice, Goods Issue transactions which will need quantities cannot be processed if you have negative inventory turned off.
You should be able to Create Sales Orders and Purchase Orders and any Goods Receipt Transactions but for your Inventory Trial Balance in your old system to match with SBO, it would be better to do the Inventory OB first.
Unless you have some compelling reason not to do so.

  • Cost of Inventory Opening Balance

    Dear all,
    I understand from the accounting terms that COS = opening stock+purchases-closing stock.
    I need to input the cost of inventory (COS)as opening balance. What account should I debit/credit. I have inventory account, Inventory opening balance suspense account, and the GL opening Balance suspense account.
    Kind Regards,
    Asif

    Hi!
    When doing a Opening Balance for Stock via Initial Stock Window, System will automatically post a Debit Entry to Inventory Acc which based on the Set G/L Accounts By Inventory Acc you mention in ItemMaster and Credit the Inventory opening balance suspense account (you need to map this on Opening Balance Acc Field on the Screen)

  • Need a query to update the inventory item to non inventory item

    Dear all,
            I need a query which should update the Inventory to Non - Inventory Item.

    Hi,
    You need to freeze the inventory by click inactive tick box. This will prevent users to use the inventory.
    The inventory posting lists will still exists as an inventory's transaction history for auditor if the inventory have had transactions.
    To empty the warehouse, just perform good issue and use inventory decrease account. After the warehouse has been empty, create similar inventory item by right click --> select duplicate. Create new item code and in the tab remarks, just write this non inventory item was ever inventory item with code e.g. xxxx.
    if you want to recover the stock, just create new item and then receive the stock into warehouse using Good receipt. use the same account code with account code used in the good issue.

  • Problem of create inventory opening balance

    hi experts,

    thanks.

    Hi,
    After activation of infocube, do setup at source(R/3) for initial stock balances and load data using datasource: 2lis_03_BX and compress WITH marker update.
    Later setup moments and load data using datasource: 2lis_03_bf and compress WITH OUT marker updated.

  • Account to be specifed while uploading inventory opening balance

    What is the account to be specified when I upload inventory opening balance for inventory items for the first time in Apps using Misc. Receipt?The material account(specified in Costing tab of Organization parameters form) gets debited but which account gets credited?

    Hi,
    It is based on the accounting entry which you provide during a misc Transaction. During a misc transaction (Receipt) system prompts for account.. and that a/c will be credited once the misc transaction is over.
    when you do a misc transaction (receipt), Material A/c got debited and system ask for a/c entry for misc trx and that a/c will be credited, we normally use *"Receiving Inventory A/c"* for the same.
    Hope this will help.

    Because something is wrong.  Most likely, either:
    (1) your Mac OS X Startup disk is damaged and you need to repair or reinstall OS X,
         - or -
    (2) you are not following the correct update workflow and should use the help from this Apple article. 
    For instance, if you are trying to update via  > Software Update..., restart Mac and download and install the Download Center version: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.04.

  • What is 'No marker update'? do opening balance have any relation with it?

    When you load historic non cummulatives you need to set the "No Marker Updating" indicator if initalization has already taken place otherwise your data will not match with the stock on R/3 side.

  • Why does Adobe update the Creative Cloud?

    Why does Adobe update the Creative Cloud and not to software I purchased to the same level?

    See also: FASB revenue recognition GAAP
    To the best of my recollection, that is what the Adobe rep mentioned. If you look up that phrase, the top return in Google is a PDF file explaining how it works. Good luck understanding it even if you're a CPA.
    John Waller has added another link on that revenue law.
    To be clear, the accounting issue called GAAP for revenue recognition states that the way Adobe counts R&D and development costs are applied to a specific product version for that version's lifetime. So, all of the Photoshop CS6 perpetual license development cost are applied against the revenue produced by that specific version. Adobe is allowed to add bug fixes and maintenance updates, but no new features for the life of that version. And, yes, this sucks for several reasons not the least of which is that the engineers are forced to try to shove as much new stuff into the most recent version and any updates that can be done prior to the end of the quarter in which a version ships because after that date, new features can't be added.
    Generally accepted accounting procedures pretty much force Adobe into this accounting. Yes, there are other accounting methods that would mitigate this, and the subscription license is one such option. Since the subscription revenue os an ongoing stream, Adobe can add new features as functionality to subscription users. Unfortunately, the users of a perperual license can not get those new features and functionality, only new bug fixes.
    The bottom line is that sucscription users get the added advantage of getting new features and functionality while perperual license users do not. Yep...kinda sucks, but it is, what it is and it's not really Adobe's fault...the accounting regulations I believe actually came into enforcement because of the whole Enron scandle...
    I realize this sort of explanation is akin to talking about sausage making...nobody really want to know how sausage is made, they just want to eat it. Same deal with Photoshop users...nobody really want to know how Adobe has to do their accounting, but the realities dictate what Adobe can and can't do...
    BTW, this all has zero to do with state sales tax...although there my be state to state differences on whether a state charges tax for software. But that has zero to do with Photoshop development.

    Hi Manikam,
    while creating datasource for inventory opening balance, you need to select check box "opening balance " at "General tab" of datasource. and at infopackage " generate Intial Status".
    this setting is while creating flat file datasource for inventory opening balance.

  • How to update the field 'VBRK-ZUONR' of Billing Document Header(VF03)

    Hi Experts.
    I got a request to update the field 'VBRK-ZUONR' of Billing Document Header(T-code:VF03).
    At first i thought it might be a BADI or User-Exit case and looked up in Standard Program but found nothing.
    Thus i doubted if it was a configuration problem.
    I tryed to configure through transaction code "VTFA" "VTFL" "VTFF" and met another failure.
    Now i'm totally lost and hope for your advice,any information would be appreciated.
    The Billing Document is automatically generated from the posting of Outbound Delivery.
    Regards.
    Panda.

    Hi friends.
    I've found where point is.
    The include program 'RV60AFZC' contains a form named 'USEREXIT_FILL_VBRK_VBRP',
    in which the field 'VBRP-ZUONR' could be set through coding.
    In our system the codes had been changed once,which led to the misalignment that confused me yesterday.
    On the other hand,undoubtedly VTFL is available to configure the value of 'VBRP-ZUONR'.
    For more information plz refer to

  • HOW TO UPDATE *BA* IN OPENING BALANCE

    Dear experts
    31/04/2011 - BA was not applicable  all opening entries have no BA .only one company code  "TA,BS,PL" was taken on company code level
    Because of expansion we have implement BA from  01/04/2011 but it was not mandatory in truncation till 30/062011 .  Hense based on cost center  we will update business area in truncation enter during 01/04/2011 till 30/062011 wherever the cost center is empty we will update BA
    we have created new cost center and link to BA  because old cost center were not changeable for updating BA
        MY QUESTION                                HOW TO UPDATE BA IN OPENING BALANCE

    Dear Sudevan
    For executing Balance as per Business area,BA must be linked with All transaction
    If BA assigned in Cost  center master records so Cost center must be assign in Transaction.That way to find Account balance as per Business area.
    Go To T.code OBY6 and tick mark on Balance sheet as per Business area.
    Regards
    Raheem
