We’re have issues w/ Cost Adjustments and while going through some Microsoft provided materials regarding cost adjustments, are prompted to make 2 changes.

Microsoft Suggestion to see more detail regarding cost adjustments: Add REVALJEINDETAIL = True to the Dex.ini file
Microsoft Suggestion to see more detail in out of the box reports (particularly the Purchase Receipts Update Detail (PRUD) report) – Add some special “PRUD Report package file” to GP.

Has anyone implemented either/both?
Ever run into any issues?

The articles being referenced are from the 9.0 / 10.0 days and we’re on 2018 so I’m curious as to if anyone has made these changes recently…  Maybe it’s unwarranted but I become a little concerned when there are ~7 year old enhancements that aren’t included in the core code of new releases.

Thanks,

I wouldn’t call them enhancements, more system options. For whatever reason they created them as dex.ini switches instead of making it a setting in some SYSTEM table. We use both of these options and haven’t noticed anything negative. But with that you should always test in a dedicated and independent test environment, but you already know that I’m sure 😉

Don’t forget to use GP Power Tools Dex.ini Configuration to roll out the Dex.ini setting changes to all workstations/terminal servers.

Sometimes when changes are made to code, Dex.ini settings are added by developers to allow the old methods to work as a backup/precaution.  They are not necessarily designed to be an option that can be changed back and forth and so are never added to a setup window.

Thank you & !

I was hoping that someone else was using these options successfully.  We put in Dev & all worked well so moved to Prod.

Thanks for Dex info as well, all makes sense!??
