Hi

The periodic costing methods are Periodic Average Costing (PAC) and Periodic Incremental LIFO.  Periodic costs are based on purchase invoice price.  They may be shared across multiple inventory orgs within the same Legal Entity.  You can choose to use periodic costs for inventory valuation in the GL, but not if you use perpetual costs for this purpose

All costs types can be reported on and can be used as the basis for 'what if' calculations and comparisons.

Periodic Average Cost (PAC) is different than average costing.
In PAC,
1. All the cost owned transactions (PO Receipts, WIP Assembly completions, Misc. receipts with unit cost )  in a given period are processed to obtain PAC item cost. 2. All the cost derived transactions (SO Issue, Misc. Issue) are assigned with PAC item cost calculated at the end of PAC period.

In Average Costing, issue transactions will have different average cost stamped based on the time at which issue transactions were created. PAC has its own setups.
