Price and Cost Updating

This documentation will show you how cost and price fields are updated in assembly and component items.

 

Item Setup

 

Component Item setup – item A1

 

Component Item setup – item A2

 

Assembly Item setup – Set A

 

Assembly tab

 

Other Cost tab

 

Pricing tab

 

Now when component’s last cost is changed, assembly’s current cost in Assembly tab and Other Cost tab will change, as well as other Price fields.  By the way, cost can be changed in the following transactions/forms:

 

Purchase Receipt

Inventory Adjustment

Inventory Item form – manually changing Cost in the Last Cost field

 

The following illustration will show you how the cost and price fields are updated.

 

Based from the above setup, create a Purchase Receipt transaction and select item A1 and change the cost from 10.00 to 12.00.  When you click Receive button on this form, you will be prompted with this Update Option mini-form.  All selections here are checked by default.  You can select these checkboxes if you would want to update the assembly’s last cost, sales price and pricing level.   Then click OK.

 

 

This time, shown here are cost and price fields that were updated by the above purchase receipt transaction where cost is changed from 10.00 to 10.50.
