Cost price set to zero |
|
There are three circumstances in which the Cost Price of a Sales Order Item can be set to zero.
1) When a Delivery-Type Stock Movement is created (either on Delivery or on Invoice) and the Include in Order Items Allocated Total check box for the Add To Stock Type of the Movement Type used for Deliveries (usually the Customer Stock Type) is switched off. This problem can be cured by switching on this check box.
2) If there is no stock, but the Product has Maintain Stock Levels turned on, and Delivery-Type Stock Movements are being created on Invoice. This might be because stock values are maintained in the Nominal Ledger only, not in the stock system. Note: this is only a problem in situations where stock is not used: if stock is being used, a FIFO value cannot be obtained if there is no stock at the moment of delivery, which is why it is set to zero.
In this circumstance, if it is not possible to create the Delivery-Type Stock Movement on Invoice, make sure you post all Purchase Orders as Stock Movements.
You may also need to change the Stock Movement Type PO (used for Purchase Orders) so that it adds to Stock Type P (instead of Stock Type O).
Note: this is only a problem in situations where stock is not used: if stock is being used, a FIFO value cannot be obtained if there is no stock at the moment of delivery, which is why it is set to zero.
3) Unallocating stock and allocating to another Order zeroes the Cost Price on the original Order. There is unfortunately no solution to this problem other than to reenter the Cost Price manually.
