If you want to appreciate or depreciate an item or a specific item ledger entry, you must use the revaluation journal.

First, you must fill in the revaluation journal with information about the current, calculated value of the specified item. You can do this manually or use the Calculate Inventory Value batch job.

Note
If you entered a line manually, the journal will revalue all units that are linked to this item ledger entry, regardless of their posting date.
