Dynamics 365 Business Central

The article discusses the release of Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 wave 1 (BC24) and mentions the availability of a new Inventory Cost Adjustment tool.
The Inventory Cost Adjustment tool is not yet documented in the BC24 release plan but is mentioned in the What's new: Cost Adjustment (Business Central Launch Event) video.
The cost adjustment feature is relevant for situations where the cost of an item changes during its lifetime, such as when freight costs are added after selling the item.
There are three existing ways to run cost adjustment in Dynamics 365 Business Central: automatically on posting, by schedule during business hours, or manually from time to time.
With the BC24 release, a fourth way to adjust costs is introduced, the Inventory Cost Adjustment tool.
The Inventory Cost Adjustment page includes various actions such as show/hide, run cost adjustment, log per, functions, and diagnostics.
To enable monitoring of cost adjustment outcomes and performance, users can set up Cost Adjustment Logging on the Inventory Setup page.
The article provides instructions for performing simple tests using the Inventory Cost Adjustment tool, such as showing non-adjusted items, running cost adjustment for selected records, and excluding or including items in the cost adjustment process.
The article concludes by encouraging readers to give the Inventory Cost Adjustment tool a try and thanking them for reading.
