We are doing some work with inventory valuation and manufacturing and I would just like confirmation of what I feel is true.
Looking at the product setup for Accounting I do not see a Valuation/Variation account so my recommendation is to always do the setup on the category. To do the setup on the category I believe the following: The component product must be in a different category than a finished good The component product could be sold alone or used in manufacturing The finished good product category must have different inventory accounts than the component product category (like WIP & Finished Good) This setup facilitates the move from Raw Materials (component product category stock variation) to WIP (Stock Input & Expense Account on the Finished Good category) to Finished Good (the stock variation account on the finished good category). What I am trying to confirm - there is no way to complete this process by using the product configuration alone AND using a combination of product confirguration and category configuration will not have the desired results unless you have categories separate for both components and finished goods. Thanks in advance for any response. -- Laurie Chrostowski Business Analyst NovaPoint Group, LLC (586) 330-9170 skype: lchrostowski
