# Codeunit 5849 "Avg. Cost Entry Point Handler"

> Codeunit 5849 "Avg. Cost Entry Point Handler" in Base Application (Microsoft.Inventory.Costing). 6 public procedures, 1 events. Present since at least BC23, still in BC30.

Base Application · Microsoft.Inventory.Costing · BC23-30 · [source at ea08af5e](https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/blob/ea08af5ef2d6a9b5c5af4a029288abbe2c883220/src/Layers/W1/BaseApp/Inventory/Costing/AvgCostEntryPointHandler.Codeunit.al) · facts from BC29

## Events published

- `OnBeforeInitialize(var AverageCostEntryPoint: Interface "Average Cost Entry Point"; var IsHandled: Boolean)` (integration)

## Procedures

- `GetMaxValuationDate(ItemLedgerEntry: Record "Item Ledger Entry"; ValueEntry: Record "Value Entry"): Date`
- `GetValuationPeriod(var CalendarPeriod: Record Date; PostingDate: Date)`
- `LockBuffer()`
- `UpdateValuationDate(ValueEntry: Record "Value Entry")`
- `IsEntriesAdjusted(itemNo: Code[20]; EndingDate: Date): Boolean`
- `DeleteBuffer(ItemNo: Code[20]; FromValuationDate: Date)`

Plus 1 local procedures.

## Called by

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 22 "Item Jnl.-Post Line"](../codeunit/22.md) (4 calls: `TouchItemEntryCost → UpdateValuationDate`, `UndoQuantityPosting → UpdateValuationDate`, `UpdateAvgCostAdjmtBuffer → LockBuffer`, …)
- [Codeunit 5810 "Change Average Cost Setting"](../codeunit/5810.md) (3 calls: `OnRun → LockBuffer`, `ProcessItemAvgCostPoint → DeleteBuffer`, `ProcessItemAvgCostPoint → UpdateValuationDate`)
- [Codeunit 361 "MoveEntries"](../codeunit/361.md) (2 calls: `MoveItemEntries → DeleteBuffer`, `MoveItemEntries → IsEntriesAdjusted`)
- [Codeunit 5820 "Close Inventory Period"](../codeunit/5820.md) (1 call: `CheckCostIsAdjusted → IsEntriesAdjusted`)
- [Codeunit 5822 "Cost Adjustment Bucket Runner"](../codeunit/5822.md) (1 call: `LockTables → LockBuffer`)
- [Codeunit 5899 "Calc. Inventory Value-Check"](../codeunit/5899.md) (1 call: `CheckAdjusted → IsEntriesAdjusted`)
- [Report 795 "Adjust Cost - Item Entries"](../report/795.md) (1 call: `LockTables → LockBuffer`)
- [Table 313 "Inventory Setup"](../table/313.md) (1 call: `CheckCostAdjustedBeforeEarliestAllowedValDate → IsEntriesAdjusted`)
- [Table 339 "Item Application Entry"](../table/339.md) (1 call: `GetVisitedEntries → GetMaxValuationDate`)
- [Table 5802 "Value Entry"](../table/5802.md) (1 call: `GetAvgToDate → GetValuationPeriod`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: none

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "Avg. Cost Entry Point Handler")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
