Description:
Deficiency Report/Enhancement Request We have discovered that there are disconnects between Price Book and Stores Setup that can result in inconsistent and unexpected accounting results: Users can edit a Stores Setup item and change the expense element to be different than the natural account associated with the Commodity Code linked to the related Price Book Item. Users can change the Commodity Code of a Price Book item, which may have a different natural account code from its prior Commodity Code. However, when the change is made, the associated Stores Setup item does not have its Expense account changed to the natural account for the new commodity code. A user can change the natural account assigned to a Commodity Code in the Price Book application. However, when the change is made, the Stores Setup items that are assigned to the Commodity Code do not have their Expense accounts changed to the new natural account for the commodity code. These disconnects between Price Book Items and their respective Store Stock items allow for significant accounting problems as the items unintentionally get out of synch relative to the natural account code. It is strongly recommended/requested that a configuration option be made that will allow the user (administrator) to configure the system so that Store Stock Items are linked/synched to their respective Price Book Items by Commodity Code. This would result in the following: 1) Editing of the Expense code on a Stores Setup item is disabled. 2) Changing of a Commodity Code on a Price Book Item will also update the expense element of the corresponding Stores Setup Item (if one exists) to be the same natural account of the newly assigned commodity code. 3) Changing the natural account assigned to a given Commodity Code will update the expense account on all Stores Setup items whose respective Price Book Items have that Commodity Code assigned. As an alternative to system configuration option, the System could prompt for updating Stores Setup items when these types of events are triggered by editing as well.
