Low volume production or shutdown (only for PF1 entities)

If production is lower than a given percentage fixed by the GBU, the related fixed costs can't / shouldn't flow to inventory and to cost of sales but are reported in R27900 - Miscellaneous production, since we cannot consider that situation as "normal condition of operations".

Physical inventory count adjustments and other inventory write offs (ex: scrap, etc)
