Wasp Barcode Inventory Control - Manual (Page 34)

InventoryControl Printable Help
If your cost for this add is different from the cost on the item record, you can change the cost on the Add
screen to represent the actual cost.
For example, if you purchased these 20 scanners for a discount, change the Cost on the Add screen
before you add the items. In the example below, the user received a $50.00 discount on the whole order
for ordering 20 scanners so the Cost entered on the Add screen should be $297.50.
20 scanners x $300 = $6,000 - $50 = $5,950 / 20 scanners = $297.50 per scanner.
You are still putting the individual scanner price into the Cost field and you must do the math to make
sure it is the correct price.
Tips!
 Since there is limited space on the reports and screens, we suggest you always
put in an abbreviation for the stocking unit.
 If you don't enter a cost when you add items or if you put in the wrong cost, there
is no way to edit that transaction and change the price after it has been completed.
 Changing the cost on the Add screen does not change it on the Edit Items screen.
The next time you add Barcode Laser Scanners, for example, the cost will still
default to $300. If you want to change the default cost you can change the cost on
the Edit Item screen by going to Main Screen > Lists > Item. On the Item List,
select the item you wan to change and then click the Edit button. You can then
edit the cost. This only changes the cost that is shown automatically the next time
you add an item
 The
List Price and Sale Price fields on the Create New Item screen are for
information purposes only. These fields are not used on any reports.
What is the Cost for Order Units Per Supplier?
In the Professional and Enterprise versions of InventoryControl you are able to specify multiple Order
Units per Supplier of an item. When you enter an Order Unit that is different from the Stocking Unit,
you are telling the system that you are ordering in one unit but when the items are received they will be
broken into the different units.
For example, if you order your Barcode Laser Scanners in boxes of 5 but your stocking unit is Each, you
need to specify the cost of a box of 5 when you create the Order Unit Settings on the Create New or
Edit Item screen, Manage Suppliers tab, as shown in the image below:
