Overview

This screen allows a user to update the base cost and ordering min/max quantites for items with 'Track Length' selected in the Item Master screen.


How-To Topic

Track Length Cost Update.png


  1. Adjust the CommCode/Profile/Gauge/Color filters at the top of the page to isolate the items you want to change. Once the filters are set, select the Refresh Table button.
  2. Change the Calculate Based On field to determine which field to use as a basis for the calculations (which field will be increased or decreased to determine the base cost).
    • Standard Cost (Global) uses the item's current Standard Cost (Global) cost as a basis for the calculations.
    • Base Cost (EA) uses the item's Current Cost (EA) cost.
    • Base Cost (CWT) uses the item's Current Cost (CWT) cost.
  3. Select the Price/Cost to Change. This will adjust the selected price by increasing the Calculate Based On amount by the entered % or $ amount.
    • Standard Cost (Global) will change the standard cost (usually in CWT) used when calculating the base cost for a newly-added item. This cost does not affect existing length/width combinations of items.
    • Base Cost (EA) changes the New Cost (EA) field.
    • Base Cost (CWT) changes the New Cost (CWT) field.
  4. To change the base cost for a single part, you can type directly into the New Cost (EA) or New Cost (CWT) fields.
    • Typing in either field will automatically convert the cost and display it on the other field. For example, entering in a New Cost (EA) will automatically convert the entered cost and display it in the New Cost (CWT) field for reference.
