Thank you Shamaine for your reply. It is helpful however, does not solve the issue. I double checked chronology of the events and we have receipted the goods before we entered the bill, and the 3-way match was ticked on the PO and on the Item. Can there be an issue with the workflow itself? If so - how do we check/correct…

I feel your pain. My understanding is however, that allocating variances to COGS based on actual Sales is not something NetSuite provides.
