Executive Summary
The CST Periodic Inventory Value report is specifically designed for organizations using Periodic Average Costing (PAC). In PAC, costs are calculated for a specific period (e.g., a month) rather than perpetually. This report provides the inventory valuation based on these periodic costs. It is the PAC equivalent of the standard “Inventory Value Report”.
Business Challenge
- PAC Valuation: Standard inventory reports often use the Perpetual cost (Frozen/Average). PAC users need reports that reflect the specific periodic cost calculated by the PAC engine.
- Acquisition Costs: PAC often includes complex acquisition cost adders (freight, duty) that need to be visualized.
- Period-Specific: The value of an item changes from period to period in PAC; this report captures the value for a specific PAC period.
Solution
This report lists inventory quantities and values based on the Periodic Average Cost.
Key Features:
- PAC Period: Parameters allow selection of the specific Costing Period.
- Cost Group: PAC is often driven by Cost Groups; this report supports that structure.
- Receiving Value: Can also report on the value of goods in Receiving (using
CST_PAC_RECEIVING_VALUES_V).
Architecture
The report queries the PAC-specific tables, which are distinct from the perpetual costing tables.
Key Tables:
CST_PAC_ITEM_COSTS: Stores the calculated periodic item costs.CST_PAC_PERIODS: Defines the PAC periods.CST_COST_GROUPS: Cost groups used in PAC.CST_PAC_RECEIVING_VALUES_V: View for receiving value in PAC.
Impact
- Regulatory Compliance: Essential for companies in jurisdictions that require Periodic Average Costing (e.g., parts of Latin America).
- True Costing: Provides a valuation that smooths out short-term fluctuations and incorporates full acquisition costs.
- Financial Accuracy: Ensures the inventory value reported matches the specific methodology (PAC) used for the ledger.
