Batch 326 : Non-perpetual Inventory
Introduction
Introduction
Important 
Note:-
The stock transactions 
will be recorded using Anglo-Saxon method for the day-to-day 
operation even when 'Non-perpetual Inventory' is used. 
The transactions will be converted to non-perpetual 
inventory method ONLY after running the 
non-perpetual inventory application via menu path [purchase / To Be Processed / 
Non-perpetual 
Inventory]. This conversion is non-reversible and has to be done 
periodically and manually due to system performance 
reasons.
   
           
             
   
Non-perpetual inventory is a very useful inventory 
registration for financial administration in southern 
Europe.
The availability of the Non-perpetual 
Inventory setting depends on the country legislation that is applicable to the 
license used. Through a setting, user can select any methods for inventory 
processing. 
These setting is 
available in menu path SGS [Systems / General / Settings / Inventory Settings] 
          
      

This setting will be visualized in 
the 'Inventory settings' for the following legislations.          
 
  - Belgium  
  
- France  
  
- Spain  
  
- Morocco  
  
- Luxemburg
  
- Hungary
  
- Japan 
  
- Poland

Non-perpetual Inventory 
This option is used by those companies that do not 
register their changes in inventory quantities and the financial 
implications at the same time. In other words, the stock transactions in 
the warehouse do not have direct consequences in the financial 
system. Inventory entries are created when purchasing or selling, but 
without a value attached. Thus, these values are added manually every time at 
the beginning or end of the financial year or period.  
Details 
Description:-  
 Anglo-Saxon method creates these entries 
for the cost part of goods that are received and issued:  
  
  
    | Transaction | D/C | G/L | Comments | B/S or 
      P&L  
     | Amount | 
  
    | Receipt | D | Stock | From item 
       | B | 100 | 
  
    |   | C | ITR | From settings 
       | B | -100 | 
  
    | Purchase Invoice  | D | ITR |   | B | 100 | 
  
    |   | C | A/P | From supplier 
       | B | -100 | 
  
    | Fulfillment | D | COGS | From item 
       | P | 100 | 
  
    |   | C | Stock |   | B | -100 | 
The result is then: 
  
  
    | D/C | G/L | Comments | B/S or P&L   
     | Amount | 
  
    | D |  COGS | From item  
       | P | 100 | 
  
    | C | A/P | From supplier  
       | B | -100 | 
For Non-perpetual Inventory, attention is paid on the purchase 
entry (in blue below) in the financial administration, but still needs the 
quantities for inventory management. Thus, the orange part is an extra entry to 
make sure ITR and COGS are balanced out.   
            
           
               
  
  
  
    | Transaction | D/C | G/L | Comments | B/S or P&L 
        
     | Amount | Transtype | 
  
    | Receipt | D | Stock | From item  
       | B | 100 | X | 
  
    |   | C | ITR | From settings  
       | B | -100 | X | 
  
    | Purchase  
       | D | ITR |   | B | 100 | X | 
  
    | Invoice | C | Stock 
    Change | From item 
 
       | P | -100 | X | 
  
    |   | D | Purchase | From itemgroup 
       
       | P | 100 | N | 
  
    |   | C | A/P | From supplier 
       
       | B | -100 | N | 
  
    | Fulfillment | D | Stock Change | From item  
       | P | 100 | X | 
  
    |   | C | Stock |   | B | -100 | X | 
Note :- 
1. The stock transactions will be recorded as usual (Anglo-Saxon 
method) for the daily operation. The Purchase invoice will split ONLY 
after running the non-perpetual inventory processing via menu path 
[purchase / To Be Processed / Non-perpetual 
Inventory].
             
       
               
2. The first part is booked in a general 
journal, the second part in a purchase journal. 
3. From technical point of 
view, the 'transtype' will 
changed from 'N' (normal - Anglo-Saxon method) to 'X' (Non-perpetual Inventory method) 
The balanced result is then:  
   
  
    | D/C 
     | G/L 
     | Comments 
     | B/S or P&L 
       | 
    Amount | 
  
    | D | Purchase 
     | From item  
     | P | 
    100 | 
  
    | C | A/P | From supplier  
     | B | 
    -100 |
