Does anyone know how the Landed Costs with Type - VAT Taxes work?I want to know how to configure and how it works. Thanks Jesus 

Hello There,I wanted to see alternate ID on PO Receipt line, how can I do this?Thank youJennifer

Does anyone have thoughts on how I might supply inventory balances to the system externally without having to manage inflows (Purchase Receipts) and outflows (selling stock from the warehouse)?As we test transitioning from our old system, we’d like to use the balances from the old system but allow the new system to enforce order limits, etc.I’m guessing this is not a thing, but I’m curious if anyone has any clever tricks to make this work...

I would like to ask is it possible and how to set outside process (outsourcing) without manufacturing mode. Till now I found solutions only for manufacturers by creating Production Orders but what if there is no production onside and we ship a purchased item to the Vendor for an outside process (coating etc) and then afterwards we receive it back from Vendor ready to sell. How to organize that case in the system in order to calculate costs correctly and track the item?

Hello everyone, I am playing around with the mobile app with warehouse management. I am trying to use the scan and transfer function to transfer between warehouses but the scan and transfer function seems to only allow transfer between locations in a single warehouse. Is there a way to bypass this? Is there any work-around? Thank you

2 of our customers have asked us to hide the Update IN and prepare invoice screen on the shipment screen.I tired to do this with permissions but am not well versed in it. After some research, it looks like I will need to do it through a custom work flow.Is this the right way to do this? Can I tie different workflows to specific roles? If not, do I just create a new screen based on it, add it to the site map and tie that to the role?All advice appreciated and thanks in advance.

Engage with other Distributors in the Acumatica Community with the new Distribution Show & Tell where Acumatica customers, partners, and Product Management staff share different ways they use Acumatica, sneak peaks into upcoming features, discussions around vertical markets, and trends in the industry. Each meetup will have a topic with individuals prepared to share, time allotted for participation from others who have joined, Q&A with each person who has shared, and polls on various topics to get your feedback. Show & Tell will be informal and interactive, so come ready to share your camera and engage: participate in the discussions or just listen in. The first Distribution Show & Tell topic is SIDE PANELS, one of my favorite features of the Acumatica platform. See how Acumatica Community members have used side panels to track shipments, view PDFs, see if the Finished Good on the SO can be fulfilled on the requested date (exploding a BOM into multiple levels), and much

Hi, I’m trying to add the Add Stocked Item popup to the mobile sales order (SO301000).

I would like to know if there is a way to create draft purchase receipts to track incoming stock. I have attempted to use the Purchase Receipt form but the problem with this is that the moment stock is on a receipt, even if that receipt is on hold, it shows as “Available” in the stock inventory summary and in some stock views.If it were possible to do this it would be an ideal place to store the transit documentation such as the Bill Of Lading and Customs documents and it would be even better if we could somehow use it to give insight/visibility internally on when stock is due to arrive on a line by line basis via a custom GI. Thoughts, comments and suggestions will be much appreciated.  @Naveen B  @Chris Hackett 

Hello, One of our customers has the following problem: he wants to use the creation of matrix items with only 2 attributes: sizes and colors, for which he has respectively 400 possible size values and 4500 possible color values. When he uses the grid in the template screen for matrix items, it simply can’t be loaded and he can’t use this functionality. He doesn’t want to break down the number of possible values in his use case. I have tried this myself with 200 values for 2 attributes, and indeed the time to check a box in the matrix item creation grid, takes at least 5 seconds before I can check another one. Have you ever encountered this kind of situation? Would you have an idea how to handle this request? Customization project or other?Thanks in advance for your feedback! Have a nice day!

I have a custom sales invoice listing report with a column for invoice type. I would want to know I can I add a negative sign to my invoice type “credit memo” so as to differentiate them from invoices?

Good dayI have a custom Material usage report I built based on a copy of the standard Historical Inventory Balance report. I am using the “Assembly Out” column which is my consumption as I only work with Assemblies. On the same report I would want to add a column depicts the current or historical material cost of an inventory item. I have tried to add the Last Cost field from the InventoryItem table but this does not bring any results.What method can I use to have the cost price field reflecting the item cost on the report?

Hi, We need to update the Item Cost base on the FIFO cost method. Ex. Item A - 20 Qty with 10$ After add the Laded Cost Value for particular Item Cost, it would be 12$. Have there any possibility to update the Item cost manually? Since user already has completed the landed cost process without adding additional 2$.Now we need to update that additional 2$ to Item. RegardsNethupul  

We have hundreds of items that require Expiration Dates annually. When an Item gets close to its Expiration Date we must have the product Re-Tested. Is there a way to track Expiration Dates without enforcing Lot/Serial Tracking on items? 

I have created an import scenario for orders, but the international orders will not import.  How / what code do I need to use to allow the international zips to load (alpha numeric) and then to have Hong Kong default to 00000 (they don’t have a zip code) .This is what we are using now:  =IIf(( Len([bill-postal-code])=4), ('0'+[bill-postal-code]),(Substring([bill-postal-code],0,5)))

We would like to change a Unit of Measure UOM of an existing stock item from EA to FT (Foot).  We want to learn the proper procedure to do this.  I trust there is a simple process for this.  Please advise.

This client has recently started having an issue where when they import Acumatica shipments into UPS Worldship, the shipment number from Acumatica fills into the zip code in UPS Worldship. Has anyone else seen this?

Hello, we have an issue where we posted a PI and there was an item that was being adjusted down by a qty of 13 in the warehouse and was entered on a single tag.  In the adjustment that was posted this was split into 2 lines for a qty of 10 and a qty of 3.  The 10 booked to the correct sub account but the 3 went to a default sub account. We have it configured to use the sub account at the warehouse setup for inventory transactions.  The items do not have locations and are not serial or lot and we are using average cost.This happened on about 10 items out of 300 total counted items.I can’t determine why those 3 booked to the default sub account rather than the correctly mapped one.

 Good Morning Forum Members,We are currently in an implementation with our client. I have reached out to support and escalated the issue, but unable to get a sufficient response for the client. They have several process work flow issues with how Acumatica handles shipping. These are some concerns they have with Pick, Pack, Ship features:What happens if they are picking an order into totes and the tote is full? The Pick, Pack, Ship screen requires the user to enter a tote ID for each shipment in the picklist. However, when that tote is full, can the user scan another tote ID for the shipment?Can multiple picklists be shipped together?Can we re-open a package to add additional items? Once confirmed, is there a way to re-open packages to add additional items?Are they able to combine shipments after the picking is done? Thank you in advance, I would really appreciate some insight on this process.   

Good afternoon,i have a mess to clean up with integration that created multiple fathom business/customer accounts with the same name but a different account number.  They created when the integration went out of control.  Now, i need away to clean up and delete these  business accounts/ customer profile.  Any suggestions?  Import Scenario?  I don’t want to manually have delete them.Thank youEvan
