Cost of Sale Adjustments not found

Question

Dear Gurus,

We encountered an issue where the item fulfillment date is earlier than the item receipt date, but the system does not generate a cost of sale adjustment. Why does it always appear under "Other transactions" as a Cost of Sale Adjustment on the Inventory Valuation Report?

With Best Regards,

Hey @Honey Soe,

When the cost is known at the time of Item Fulfillment, NetSuite may generate a Cost of Sales adjustment, if applicable.

Because the cost wasn't recorded at the time of Item Fulfillment, NetSuite didn't have a need to post a Cost of Sales adjustment.

Many NetSuite processes rely on transaction dates, and the best practice is to have correct transaction dates (e.g., you can't fulfill something you haven't received yet)
