The system does an inventory revaluation to adjust inventory values based on the latest costs, market values and inventory valuation method selected (FIFO, LIFO, Weighted Average, Standard Cost).

By including inventory month close and revaluation as part of the month end SOPs, companies can achieve efficient inventory management.
