How to: Assign Exact Cost Reversing in Sales
You may agree to compensate a customer by letting them return a sold item against a sales return order. When you invoice the sales return order, you want to revalue the item at the unit cost that is connected to the original sales entry by assigning the exact cost in the reversal. By default, a returned item is valued according to the current unit cost.
Two functions exist to assign the cost reversing automatically.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
Get Posted Document Lines to Reverse |
Copies lines of one or more posted documents to be reversed. |
Copy Document |
Copies both the header and lines of one posted document to be reversed. Requires that the Exact Cost Reversing Mandatory check box is selected in the Sales & Receivables Setup window. |
