ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
—————
(Finished
Good) Item was Manufactured through a Discrete job “F1309056”. This job
was completed at a unit cost of “229.42310” for 100 Quantity.
later
on “user” did a “WIP Completion Return” of 100 Quantity for the same
job, this time system picked unit cost “22,942.31000” for return
transaction.
This was a huge unexpected variance…

Cause

The cause of this issue :

When we calculate return txn value, the formula is like below.
relieved_matl_completion_value * return_qty / prior_completion_qty

Then cst_comp_snapshot.prior_completion_quantity was zero when processing assembly return.
 
The issue was clarified in details with the same scenario in
Bug 9502821 – WRONG VALUE IN ACCOUNTING OF WIP COMPLETION RETURN TRANSACTION
 

Solution

Data fix:
=======
There is no way to recost already costed
txns. And, now the assembly item cost is wrong after the return txn, it
became 0. So, CT should do average cost update for that item to make it
correct. And, for already
happened wrong accounting entries in the wip job, CT should do manual GL, because we can’t recost txns.
