After "Cost Accounting Processor" has processed physical inventory transactions, which transaction types will it process next?

After the "Cost Accounting Processor" has processed physical inventory transactions, it proceeds to handle in-transit transactions. This sequence is important because in-transit transactions are those that represent inventory being transported from one location to another. Their processing comes after physical inventory transactions since it ensures that the costs associated with inventory that is actively in transit are accounted for in a timely manner, thus maintaining an accurate portrayal of inventory values.

Processing in-transit transactions allows businesses to keep track of the costs and quantities of inventory that have not yet arrived at their destination. This is crucial for maintaining accurate inventory records and ensuring that the financial statements reflect the true status of inventory considered available for sale. By processing this next, the system ensures that cost calculations account for all inventory within the supply chain promptly, reducing discrepancies in inventory valuation.

The other transaction types, while important, are not the immediate next step following the processing of physical inventory transactions, which is why they do not follow directly in the processing sequence.
