Suddenly ADJ-CST is Created after doing ADJ-QTY

Hello everyone,

Can you help me about ADJ-CST which was suddenly created after doing ADJ-QTY, even though I haven’t done a Cost Adjustment

Best Regards,

What is your costing method?

I’ll bet it’s Average/Last!

Hi @jkane and @Chad_Smith ,

My costing method is Lot FIFO

It’s been a minute since I looked at Lot FIFO, but you would have two possible cost records in play here I think. The Part Transaction History should indicate which is being updated.

  • Lot FIFO (PartFIFOCost)
  • FIFO Average (PartCost)

FIFO does create some complications when it comes to things like quantity adjustments, especially when made in a positive direction.

I think (heavy emphasis) that when creating inventory from thin air (quantity adjustment) the FIFO Average is used as the default value for the newly created LOT FIFO. So, I suspect you are seeing new lot created, then ADJ-CST to set it to the FIFO Average. Without recording some transactions and taking a look myself, that’s my suspicion.

Was this a positive adjustment? Did the lot already exist or did this adjustment create the lot? Those answers might pivot the conversation in a different direction.

This makes sense to me. We are FIFO and i almost always see a cost adjustment occur with a qty adjustment.

That’s right, after I checked quantity adjustment transcation using a new lot number
Thank you for your help
