You can directly post positive adjustments or purchases for costing by weight catch weight items using item journal lines, allowing the system to calculate costs based on the actual weight even without a purchase order.
When you post these item journal lines, the system automatically creates both item ledger entries and item weight ledger entries.
You can also view the remaining weight through the Remaining Quantity (Catch weight UoM) field and the Weight Open checkbox on the Item Ledger Entries page and monitor weight availability using the Remaining Quantity (Catch weight UoM) field on the Item Weight Ledger Entries page.
On the Item Ledger Entries page, the Weight Open checkbox indicates whether the weight quantity on the entry is still available for further correction or adjustment. When the full weight quantity has been used, the system automatically clears the value of the checkbox.
For purchase flows with purchase orders, see Post purchase order.
