Creating Master Records for Materials Used in Asset Construction
You maintain master records for all materials that you might potentially use in the construction of assets for your own use so that:
When a warehouseman posts a goods receipt, the system automatically generates a batch number
The Automatic Tracking of Invoices for APC function uses the batch number to track whether the materials are really used in the construction of assets or not. That affects the VAT.
They use the moving average price, so that if a vendor sends you a subsequent debit for some materials, the price of the batch is updated
For more information, see Construction of Fixed Assets.
