Accounting rules state to recognize any variance of production when the WT closes not when it completes.

If your WT takes months to complete or transactions post in the wrong order( labor than material or completion or whatever) the system will recognize the variance when there might not be a variance, but SAGE create it because it requires that you post in a certain format or you complete by text book. Real world doe snot work that way.

We had to add to our close process to download all variances that hit the account and if the WT is still open we reverse it because we don't want to recognize an expense or gain until we complete the order which could take up to 8 weeks or if it did take a week but cross months the system would still show a variance and the order is not completed.
