Purchase price not sure how to deal with
Present, due to large fluctuations in market prices of raw materials, so that some enterprises in a purchase order issued, we can not determine the purchase price. Even in the raw materials reach the business, was also unable to determine the price. Only when reconciliation can be finalized this is also inconsistent with the spirit of the ERP.
In this case, in general, companies can first estimate a price the first orders at this price, and then change the price at the right time. However, some users fear that trouble to change, so would rather not go the next time when a single audit purchase orders, etc. to determine the price and then modify the price, and then review purchase orders. It is not reasonable. On the one hand, may be raw material storage, the price has not been set, while the purchase order did not review the case, storage alone can not be opened; the other hand, there is no audit in the procurement of a single case, the purchase order can be random changes whether intentional or unintentional changes are risky.
Therefore, I propose, purchase price, even if they do not determine the circumstances, as long as the have been sent to the supplier, it is necessary and timely review. The price, you can when the need arises, and then change it.
1. Iin the purchase order before the goods have not yet purchase, you can change a single purchase order to make changes. Change Orders through the purchase order changes, changes in prices can also leave a historical record, to facilitate future queries.
2. If the purchase order has been purchase, then the ERP system is not allowed to make any changes to the procurement of a single action, unless the purchase order to specify an end. Therefore, if the purchase orders have been closed, or the case has been purchasing, procurement change alone can not be processed. At this point, some ERP systems such as Digital India's Sam ERP systems, storage of raw materials alone will add a small feature you can update the purchase price. In the follow-up on accounts payable out of the price that is the updated prices.
3. If the material has already been into the library and has not set prices, then at the end of the month to go Lactor process. This process more complex, companies had better not come to this step. In other words, at the end, it is best able to determine the price of this material. Otherwise, it could lead to inaccurate inventory cost at the end of storage, resulting in the production costs of a problem. In the last resort, the only thing used Lactor process.
At the end of the trouble is expected withdrawal
In the end, ERP systems, the cost of carry-over before, ERP requires the user to order refunding the excess material promptly. If a Zhang material production orders need to use some sort of 800 kilograms, in the actual production, because the use of advanced production technology, or some other reasons, the actual used only 750 kilograms of production materials is complete. ERP requires completion of storage at the same time orders, we can put 500 kilograms material be returned to the warehouse. Because if orders to retreat after storage material, then, ERP systems do not allow storage of the production orders have been completed to make changes, this time even if the withdrawal is expected, it could not relate to this production order. So, when the actual cost of materials will this excess is still calculated to this order to the production cost calculation results with the actual costs is different.
However, if after the completion of production orders for each, require companies organize workshops, materials and when I returned to the warehouse, an enterprise is impossible to realize. Even if the cost will be too high, or will affect the production plan, therefore, enterprises generally will not do so. ERP, taking into account this situation, we step back and ask enterprises to run at the end of the cost of carry-over work before it is completed in the month when you order materials and I returned to the warehouse.
Relaxed than the previous requirements a lot therefore the author in practice, the general suggested that the larger the value of the material, or specific to certain products, materials, and completion of production orders, the timely return of more than material circumstances, at the end of finishing at least once, the excess material production orders in accordance with 11 returned to the warehouse. Come on back to where to go, do not confuse. Of little value for those materials, such as packing bags and so on, there is no need for a monthly finishing repository. Because the cost of these materials for the last little impact there would be no need to charge the energy.
Therefore, I expected for the end of the month is the last deadline. Could not be completed at the end of this work, the month would certainly affect the cost of production. Moreover, this effect is irreversible. Last month, the site I expected, if the following month clean-up storage, ERP system does not decrease the cost of last month, but only decrease the cost of the month. In other words, at least two months will affect the cost. Enterprises should take it seriously.
Differences between the above three are the most enterprises is inevitable, or can be solved though, but it takes a lot of costs. For businesses, the loss of greater than the gain to many enterprises thinks that uneconomical. So, in this case, the companies should, together with the consultants to discuss a number of solutions, through remedial or regulatory specifications for the ERP system to minimize their impact.
