IV57243: INCORRECT COST WHEN ITEM IS DEFINED AS FIFO AND CAPITALIZED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PROBLEM / CLIENT CONCERN :
  
  Incorrect cost when item is defined as FIFO and capitalized
  
  Environment
  
  IBM WebSphere Application Server: 7.0.0.29
  TAPE: 7.5.0.5
  MAM Scheduler 7.5.2.0
  
  Replication Steps :
  
  1. Create an item in item master, flag the item as both Rotating
  and
  Capitalized
  
  2. Add item to storeroom and choose cost type FIFO
  
  3. Create a new asset, enter itemnum 8877 in the Rotating item
  field,
  enter
  central in location field and enter 1000 in inventory field.
  You have now 1 asset in the central storeroom
  
  4. Go to inventory and issue the item against the workorder, if
  you look
  into the field line cost you see the value 0, which is the
  correct value
  because it´s a capitalized item
  
  5. Open up the workorder that you have issued the item against,
  select
  action/ view costs.
  You have now a value in the field Material costs which is wrong,
  the
  value should be 0 not 1800.
  The Item has been flagged as Capitalized in Item Master, so it
  should
  reflect 0 cost.
  
  
  Help Text regarding Capitalized items:
  ===
  See help text regarding the field capitalized in the item master
  
  Field:                   Capitalized
  Table.Column:                   ITEM.CAPITALIZED
  Specifies whether the item is to be financially accounted for as
  a
  capitalized cost or a non-capitalized cost. If the check box is
  selected, the item is capitalized. If the check box is cleared
  (the
  default), the item is a non-capitalized cost. Tools are always
  accounted
  for as capitalized costs. You can only change the setting for
  this field
  by using the Change Capitalized Status action in Item Master.
  Capitalized items are always issued and returned at zero cost,
  regardless of the cost carried in inventory. Non-capitalized
  items are
  issued and returned at the standard, last, or average cost, as
  specified
  in Multisite.
