https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/dynamics365/business-central/design-details-inventory-adjustment-value-entry-posting-dateIn this scenario, the company is using the average costing method and inventory periods, and the Automatic Cost Posting feature is not enabled. The inventory period for July 2020 has been closed, and the value of the Allow Posting From field in the General Ledger Setup has been set to August 1, 2020.
Later, a purchase invoice for freight charges is received and posted on August 8, 2020, against a purchase invoice that was posted on July 15, 2020. This means that the cost of the items received in the July 15th invoice will need to be adjusted to reflect the additional cost of the freight charges.
To make this adjustment, the Adjust Cost Item Entries batch job is run for August. This batch job will adjust the cost of the items received in July by including the additional cost of the freight charges.
The question asks which date is automatically selected for the value entry by the batch job. In this case, the value entry date will be the date of the original transaction, which is July 15, 2020. This is because the adjustment is being made to the original transaction, and the value entry date cannot be changed.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. July 15, 2020.
