    Chris,

    Would you consider evaluating your current warehouse settings and pulling back from directed pick to simplify where possible or continue working with the more strict requirements?

    That is correct. There are no recurring intercompany journals currently. There is a Microsoft Idea for this, though, so please vote for it. Microsoft Idea (dynamics.com)

    There is a second report, called Vendor Remittance – Posted Entries, that you can modify and use. This is typically used for wire transfers since those remittance advices do not automatically send from the payment journal.

    Modify that report as well, and then from the Payment line on the vendor ledger entry you can resend it / print it.

    We also recently ran into this. We’re currently testing exposing the Ext field on the contact card so we can do data cleanup. This information doesn’t pass to the Customer/Vendor card, though.

    Laura,

    Chris is spot on with this information. I would add one additional piece of advice. The item card itself holds the default information: default vendor, lead time, price, etc. I would remove everything from that area of the item card except the default vendor, if you do have a vendor that you typically buy from.

    One follow-up question: do you have multiple locations you order into? And if so, are you using SKUs (stockkeeping units)?

    What sort of issues are you seeing? Deferrals can be a great tool, but they do have a few watch outs. The biggest one for me is that it posts all activities into the future. So, if you must amortize over 12 months, all 12 months must be open in the Deferral Posting date to post. Then if something is abandoned or written off, you need to reverse / correct those entries. We use them internally for both revenue and expenses.

    Ah, but you did spend the money, correct? If you spent the money where was it recorded in your G/L? There is no way to create an unbalanced entry in BC. You could turn off the G/L integration to post acquisition cost, but then your asset balances won’t match the FA subledger.

    How often are the BOM’s changing? I would normally agree with rolling once a year, but if you are truly trying to see production variances that are not related to BOM changes, you would have to roll more frequently.

    If you can accept the small variances that are occurring between standard and expected, then add on the potential of a PowerBI report to capture the true material variances would be the best way to manage.

    I would also suggest posting a suggestion here (Categories (dynamics.com)) for better manufacturing variance reporting. My guess is it would get lots of votes.

    I thought I was remembering that correctly and that the items you are looking at your finished goods (i.e. where configuration changes cost). Variance reporting is difficult, especially if your standard cost roll doesn’t match the timing of cost changes, which may certainly be valid. See if @SteveChinsky ‘s BI report works and let us know.
