Non Stock Inventory Items Posting a Non Zero Next Cost.

Problem:

A non stock inventory item (a part in an I type category) is posting a Non Zero next cost.

No sales or receivings should be performed against the inventory item being adjusted until the corrective steps have been completed.

Solution:

1. Open the inventory record for the item in question
2. Change the category number of the item to a Normal stock control category number (This is an N type category)
3. Click OK to save this change.
4. Open the inventory record for the part again
5. Go to the Cost and stock levels tab
6. Add a manual adjustment for 1 quantity at zero landed cost.
7. Change the category number back to the original non stock category number.

The part will now post with a zero landed cost on any subsequent sales.
