Transfer Value
The Transfer Value function transfers the following based on the line setup:
- calculated cost, sales price, or discount values to the item
- calculated standard cost to stockkeeping units of an item
- calculated unit cost, unit price, and line discount to the sales document line
This function can only be run if the Status is set to Certified; if it is not certified when the function is run, a message opens stating that it will certify the calculation and then open the Transfer Calculation Value page.
The calculated values of the lines with the Transfer checkbox selected will be transferred to the item, stockkeeping unit, and sales document line, respectively.
Transfer Standard Cost and Unit Price to Item
The Standard Cost and Item Unit Price line types are always shown in the Transfer Calculation Value page. As long as the Variant Code field is empty in the Calculation Card and the same Unit of Measure Code is used in the Item Card and Calculation Card, the standard cost can be transferred to the Item Card. If not, the Transfer field will not be editable.
If the Transfer checkbox is selected, the calculated value will be transferred to the Standard Cost and/or Unit Price field in the Item Card. If the costing method is Standard, then the Unit Cost field will be updated too.
Transfer Standard Cost to Stockkeeping Unit
The standard cost can be updated in all stockkeeping units that exist for an item or variant used in a calculation via the Transfer Value function. As long as all stockkeeping units for the item or variant have the same standard cost, the Stockkeeping Unit Standard Cost line type is shown in the Transfer Calculation Value page.
If the Transfer checkbox is selected, the calculated value will be transferred to the Standard Cost field in the Stockkeeping Unit Card(s).
Note
The location of the stockkeeping unit is not considered when determining whether to update the standard cost. As long as the standard cost is the same for all stockkeeping units of the item or variant, it will be updated in all stockkeeping units, regardless of location. For example, an item has three stockkeeping units with different locations: BLUE, GREEN, and RED. All stockkeeping units have standard cost = 1.00. If the Value Transfer process is run and the new standard cost is 2.00, then the standard cost will be updated to 2.00 for all locations.
Conversely, if the standard cost of even one of the stockkeeping unit locations is set to a different value, then the Stockkeeping Unit Standard Cost line type will not be included; therefore, no update can occur.
This is the same for variants with and without locations. As long as the stockkeeping units assigned to the variant used in the Calculation Card have the same standard cost, then the standard cost in the stockkeeping units will be updated when the Value Transfer process is run.
Transfer Values to Sales Document Lines
Calculations with references to sales documents can be used to transfer the calculation values to the document line.
Note
The option (Type = Document Unit Price) to transfer the Unit Price value to the document is not available if the currency codes are different between calculation and document.
Transfer Sales Price and Sales Line Discount to Item
In addition to the values transferred to the sales document line, the calculated sales price and sales line discount percent can be transferred to the item's Sales Price and Sales Line Discount tables, respectively, based on the lot size of the calculation.
Transfer Unit Cost to Sales Document Line
For items with costing method FIFO, the Document Unit Cost line type is displayed in the Transfer Calculation Value page.
If the Transfer checkbox is selected, the calculated value will be transferred to the Unit Cost field in the Sales Line. The Unit Cost is only transferred to the sales line, not the item.
