Question:

Should I select Commit or Commit and Recalculate when committing a Physical Inventory? 
Answer:

Commit updates on-hand values immediately. Calculated costs are then updated automatically during the overnight maintenance process.

Commit and Recalculate updates both on-hand values and calculated costs at the time of commit.

Use Commit and Recalculate carefully. The cost calculation engine uses significant system resources and may reduce performance—especially in environments with large datasets or when multiple outlets commit and recalculate simultaneously
