General parameters > Chapter Inventory > Parameter MAXABSPER (% maximum of over-absorption) 

This parameter sets the over-absorption percentage that will be used during the price adjustment on the stock transactions of type receipt while the quantity to be adjusted is greater than the quantity remaining in stock.

For instance, let us consider product A with a zero initial stock:

  • A receipt of 100 units of this product.
  • An issue of 80 units of this product.

Therefore remains 20 units of product A in stock

If an additional invoice is entered for the original receipt, the over-absorbed part in the remaining stocks will be equal to:

(((Adjustment amount / Qty to be adjusted) * Qty in stock) +(average cost * Qty in stock))*MAXABSPER/100

Possible values: As this is a percentage, the values that can be assigned to this setup fall in the interval [0..100].

Comments

When the MAXABSCOD parameter is set to Site/lot absorption basis, the formula is slightly different since the given quantity in stock is the adjusted lot quantity:

(((Adjustment amount / Qty to be adjusted) * Qty in stock of the lot) +(average price * Qty in stock of the lot))*MAXABSPER/100
