Adjust Item File To Lifo/Fifo

Application Overview

 If you are using LIFO or FIFO inventory valuation method, the Adjust Item File To LIFO/FIFO application allows you to balance your Inventory Item File with your LIFO/FIFO layer file.  There are two procedures you can run to balance the Item File with the LIFO/FIFO layer file.  The first procedure, Initialize LIFO/FIFO File, will create the layer file with the current quantities and costs in the Inventory Item File and is normally run as a start up step for the LIFO/FIFO inventory valuation.  This procedure, Adjust Item File To LIFO/FIFO, allows you to balance the Inventory Item File to the layers in the LIFO/FIFO layer file.  This procedure is used if the layer file and the inventory item would become out of balance.  Because the layer file contains the detailed receivings for the item it can be used to balance the Inventory Item File.
