Hi Jim,
 
 
temporary (before closing or recalculation) your value will be wrong in many cases:
f.i.
suppose you buy and invoice 100 pieces of an item at $20 a piece. (there is no history before this point)
later you buy again 100 pieces at $40 a piece but they are only received , not invoiced.
First thing: AWP is always used temporary (before recalculation/closing)
You sell 50 pieces.
 
You could think that temporary 50 pices are drawn at $30 (because of temporary AWP)
This is not true. When "physical value" is off (inventory model group) these 50 will be drawn at $20 because the last 100 don't have financial price (because no invoice), so it doesn't add to the AWP for the moment.
If you recalculate/close after the last 100 are invoiced it will correct the AWP to $30 and so also the issue of 50 pieces.
 
Try it for for many examples, it is always a case of: "stock can be issued before all financial value is known, so it is issued a a wrong price".
 
So you see that recalculation is necessary also if you chose AWP. 
 
So the rule is: invoice prices (for purchases) and cost calculation (for production) sets the financial value for incoming stock and because you could have issue transactions before you know the definite price for stock you will always have to recalculate/close
 
hope this helps,

Subject: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Inventory Closing

Hi all ..

May be this could be a foolish !

Correct me if am wrong !

Costing method used - FIFO !

From my understandin when you do a recalculation Axapta adjusts the inventory values of those items which were drawn from the inventory on average cost price to the cost price by lot id.

Jus curious .. why cannot it be done while doing the transaction itself.

And if you use the weighted average costing method there wont be any settlements proposed when you do a recalculation.

Please comment !

Regards

Jim.
