Dynamics NAV / Business Central - What happens to assigned charge items if the original received quantity is partially returned?


  • Scenario
    • 100 items are purchased for $1 each
      • Vendor Invoice is for $100
    • duty item charge of $1 is added
      • Customs Invoice is for $100
      • Cut a cheque and pay customs to clear container
    • Final Landed Cost
      • $200
    • Upon opening the container, we find 20 items damaged
    • We contact the vendor, and he gives us a credit for $20
  • Problem
    • We cannot request a credit from Customs for the $20 duty we have paid on the damaged items
    • The $20 value is still sitting in our inventory account
  • Solution
    • Pass a manual journal to move the value from Inventory to Damages/Writeoffs, (but not applied to any specific line item, as this will affect existing item costs)
      • Debit Inv $20
      • Credit Damages/Writeoffs $20
    • Add original po,receipt,credit numbers as reference on journal
