inventory accounting periods (see the Collaborate12 presentation Egads! How in the
Dickens Do I Handle Those Month-End Interfaces? for more information.)
For each inventory organization close your inventory accounting periods
Schedule the month-end valuation reports to run with an "As Of Date" for the last day
of the accounting period:
a) Receiving Value Report (slides 17-25)
b) All Inventories Value Report (has Receiving, Inventory and Intransit balances,
slides 31-32)
c) Inventory Value Report (by Subinventory or by Cost Group, slides 33-36)
d) Intransit Value Report (slides 39-41)
e) Transaction Historical Summary Report (slides 42-43)
e) WIP Value Report (As of Date not required, by accounting period, slides 45-46)
After you close the inventory accounting periods run the transaction reports for each
inventory organization using the date range for your inventory accounting period:
a) Receiving Distribution Detail Report (slides 26-27)
b) Material Account Distribution Summary Report (slides 29-30)
c) WIP Account Summary Report (slide 47-48)
d) R12 - Journal Entries Report Cost Management (slides 49-51)
Complete the attached Excel worksheet (slide 13), using your preliminary Trial
Balance or other G/L source for your beginning G/L balances, the above distribution
reports for the monthly activity by Journal Source and the Valuation Reports for your
perpetual balances.

Release 11i: it will not come over to the GL Interface. For other
subledgers it will fail in journal Import (Payables, others)
Release 12: will fail in Create Accounting
Oracle provides us with the ability to receive Outside Processing (OSP) vendor
receipts to closed work orders
Release 12 patches to stop this (as of Feb-2011):
This causes a permanent difference as the corresponding work order is not charged
and the costs are not reflected within the perpetual records (WIP balances)
And you can have receiving transactions stuck in your Open Receiving Interface
which you cannot clear (the job is closed)
Corrective actions:
Corrective actions:
Typically back-end SQL*PLUS fixes for Organization, Subinventory,
WIP or Cost Group account changes
Most other changes can be done via the forms or setup screens
Note: Oracle Support advice may be too conservative (new orgs, new
subinventories, issue all goods out, close all work orders, etc.)

Caveats:
Only considers Discrete Costing, not OPM
Uses a MFG lookup code to select the desired accounts
Needs to be tailored to your chart of accounts
Sample version does not handle Receiving (no snapshot)
Sample version assumes same accounts across cost elements

Summary
Using the standard Oracle reports to reconcile inventory is ok
with a small number of inventory organizations
But even with a small number of inventory orgs using the
Custom Inventory Reconciliation Report can save time
And having custom multi-org valuation and accounting
distribution reports can also save significant time, up to a
50% efficiency improvement
