to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.Use this screen to print or preview the Purchase Price Variance Detailed and Summary report before actually running the process that creates journal entries on the Create Purchase Price Variance Journal Entry screen.
The reports generated on this screen are the PPV Analysis Detailed report (Standard Costing and Average Actual Costing) and the PPV Analysis Summary report (Standard Costing and Average Actual Costing). The PPV Analysis Detailed report includes variances for Project WIP (if screen option is selected), regardless of the post project WIP variance value for the inventory abbreviation. However, journal entries for project WIP variance is created on the Create Purchase Price Variance Journal Entry (INPPPV) screen only if the option to post project WIP variance is selected for the inventory abbreviation. The PPV Analysis Summary report is similar to the first report except that it shows the summary by project with combined MO totals.
If a particular variance account/organization has not been set up or is inactive, or period of performance fiscal year/period (FY/PD) start/end is not within selected FY/PD, the amounts are included in the report with a note that indicates this condition.
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.
You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.
