Well Isn't it time to consider extending the rather simple way of posting inventory changes (adjustments) to G/L?

You can get your inventory sales and purchase posted on different G/L accounts based on product groups and business posting groups. But when it comes to inventory adjustments it gets quite simple. You get your positive and negative adjustment posted to only one and same inventory adjustment account. Why not extend this to post positive inventory adjustments to one account and negative inventory adjustments to another account? And to stretch even more - you could have information like reason code control on which G/L account and adjustment will end.

With this extended posting option for inventory adjustments you will get an even better overview in your G/L accounts of why adjustments haven been made and also measure the amounts.

The measuring of the adjustments is often quite crucial for companies to follow up on. Adjustments is often done because of different reasons and that can be very important to keep track on.

It should be quite easy to make this small extension to the inventory posting routine but with the closing down of customization it might not be possible to do in the BC future.

You can actually manipulate with the Product Posting group in a Item journal but it's a hassel and it would be relevant to connect to reason codes. If item journals could added "prefixed" product posting groups to lines in the worksheet then G/L posting could be based on the different item journals.
