Purchase Price Variance(PPV) account need to be set up only in a Standard Costing Organization
Explanation
-----------
For Standard Costing Organizations, the PPV account is mandatory,
for Average Costing Organizations, the PPV Account is optional.
After the fix, the form logic will be as follows:
if (Standard cost organization ) then
PPV_account = required
else
PPV_account = not required.
end if
How does nonrecoverable tax become IPV when accounted
Fix
nonrecoverable taxes are considered part of the "landed" cost of the items purchased
when the non recoverable tax is not already included in the purchase order.
Example 1:
POis entered for 1 item @ $100 no tax
Invoice is matched to the PO and the invoice has nonrecoverable tax (rate of 7%)
The invoice price variance column is populated with $7. The system calculates the
non recoveravle tax and determines it's now part of the landed cost of the items purchased.
When the payables accounting process is run it pulls the IPV value of $7 and
creates an accounting entry to the IPV account.
Example 2:
POis entered for 1 item @$100 with recoverble tax of 8% (100% recoverable)
Invoice is matched to the PO and the invoice has nonrecoverable tax (rate of 7%)
The invoice price variance column is populated with $7. The system calculates the
tax and determines it's now part of the landed cost of the items purchased.
When the payables accounting process is run it pulls the IPV value of $7 and
creates an accounting entry to the IPV account. The recoverable tax of $8 is charged to
the tax account.
Example 3:
POis entered for 1 item @$100 with nonrecoverble tax of 7%
Invoice is matched to the PO and the invoice has nonrecoverable tax (rate of 10%)
The invoice price variance column is populated with $3 (the difference between the rate
on the PO and invoice). The system calculates the tax and determines it's now part of the
landed cost of the items purchased.
When the payables accounting process is run it pulls the IPV value of $3 and
creates an accounting entry to the IPV account.
Solution
In the current design if there is no onhand then the IPV is not transferred.
Currently the Transfer Invoice Variance to Inventory Valuation Process does not include the functionality of verify the item has on-hand quantity and per the user’s manual the average cost update process cannot change unit cost unless there is on-hand quantity. Since the customer no on-hand quantity on
some items, the customer can run the Transfer Invoice Variance to Inventory Valuation Process with the parameter ‘Automatic Update’ set to no and this will enable the customer to review the Invoice Transfer to Inventory Report and submit transactions using the Inventory Transaction Open Interface.
IPV Transfer process will pick up only those lines from ap_invoice_distributions_all for transfer where
1. posted_flag = 'Y'
2. inventory_transfer_status = 'N'
3. cst_quantity_layers table has layer_quantity > 0
