Inventory NRV Assessment — entity reference

A hand-entered lower-of-cost-and-net-realisable-value assessment for one item in one accounting book, dated by As Of Date. No screen or process calculates or creates these records, and the form performs no calculation: every figure is saved as typed. The Inventory Valuation statement reads only the item, the accounting book, the As Of Date and the Outstanding Write Down: for each item and book it subtracts the Outstanding Write Down of the latest assessment dated on or before the statement date from the item's cost. Assessments are not posted to the general ledger, by saving or by closing a period; post a manual journal for the write-down. The shipped Create and View forms do not include Accounting Book, so an administrator must add it before assessments can affect the statement. The record is in no app; open it from the App Launcher under All Entities.

Fields

FieldLabelTypeRequiredWhat it does
AccountingBookIdAccounting BookLookup → AccountingBookThe accounting book the write-down belongs to. The Inventory Valuation statement applies an assessment only when this matches the book being viewed (the primary book when no book is picked); an assessment with no book is ignored. Not on the shipped Create or View form, so an administrator must add it.
AsOfDateAs Of DateDateThe measurement date. Every valuation dated on or after it uses this assessment's Outstanding Write Down, until a later-dated assessment for the same item and book takes over. An assessment with no date is ignored by the statements.
BranchIdBranchLookup → BranchThe branch the assessment was made for. Recorded only: the valuation statement applies the write-down to the whole item regardless of branch, so each branch column or selected branch subtracts the full amount. Used by the Valuation & NRV dashboard's branch filter and chart.
CarryingValueCarrying ValueCurrencyCost less outstanding write-down, typed by hand. Not calculated and not read by the statements, which work out carrying value from the cost layers. Summed on the Valuation & NRV dashboard.
CostToCompleteCost To CompleteCurrencyFurther costs needed to make the stock saleable, typed by hand. Subtract it from the estimated selling price when you work out NRV.
CostToSellCost To SellCurrencyCosts of making the sale, such as commission or freight out, typed by hand. Subtract it from the estimated selling price when you work out NRV.
CostValueCost ValueCurrencyThe item's cost on the As Of Date, typed by hand from the Inventory Valuation statement. Not checked against the cost layers; the statement uses its own cost figure.
CreatedByIdCreated ByLookup → UserAccountYes
CreatedDateTimeCreated DateDateAndTimeYes
EstimatedSellingPriceEstimated Selling PriceCurrencyThe expected selling price of the stock, typed by hand. Not taken from or checked against a price list.
FiscalPeriodIdFiscal PeriodLookup → FiscalPeriodThe fiscal period the assessment belongs to, for filtering and audit. The statements use As Of Date, not this field.
GroupingGroupingTextFree-text note of how the test was made, for example Item or GroupOfSimilar. Nothing reads it on a saved assessment.
IdIdGuidYes
ItemGroupIdItem GroupLookup → ItemGroupA group of similar items, for reference only. No statement reads an assessment that names only an item group; record one assessment per item instead.
ItemIdItemLookup → ItemThe item written down. Required in practice: the valuation statements only read assessments that name an item.
JournalIdJournalLookup → JournalThe journal that posted the write-down. Not on any form, and nothing fills it from the shipped screens, because assessments are never posted automatically.
ModifiedByIdModified ByLookup → UserAccountYes
NameNameTextYesYour label for the assessment, such as the item and period. Required and typed by hand; assessments are not numbered automatically.
NrvNrvCurrencyNet realisable value: estimated selling price less cost to complete less cost to sell. Typed by hand, not calculated. Summed on the Valuation & NRV dashboard.
OutstandingWriteDownOutstanding Write DownCurrencyThe cumulative write-down still carried after this assessment: previous outstanding plus write-down this run less reversal this run. The only figure the Inventory Valuation statement reads: it is subtracted from the item's cost from the As Of Date onwards.
OwnerIdOwnerLookup → UserAccountYes
PartnerAccountIdPartner AccountLookup → AccountThe company the stock belongs to. Fill it so the list and dashboard can be filtered by company; the valuation statement matches assessments by book and item.
PolicyPolicyTextFree-text note of the reversal policy, for example ReversalAllowed (Ind AS and IFRS allow reversal up to original cost) or NoReversal (US GAAP). Nothing reads it on a saved assessment: under a no-reversal policy, it is up to you never to lower Outstanding Write Down.
RecordTypeIdRecord TypeGuid, hidden
ReversalThisRunReversal This RunCurrencyThe part of an earlier write-down this assessment releases because NRV recovered, never more than the previous outstanding write-down. Typed by hand; leave at zero under a no-reversal policy.
UIPropsUI PropsText
UpdatedDateTimeModified DateDateAndTimeYes
WriteDownThisRunWrite Down This RunCurrencyThe additional write-down this assessment adds compared with the item's previous outstanding write-down. Typed by hand; use it as the amount of the manual write-down journal. Summed on the Valuation & NRV dashboard.
