If your cost for this add is different from the cost on the item record, you can
change this 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 window before you add the items. In this example the user
received a $50 discount on the whole order for ordering 20 scanners so the Cost
entered on the Add screen should be $297.50.
20 Scanners * $300 = $6000 - $50 = $5950 / 20 Scanners = $297.50 per scanner
You are still putting the individual scanner price into the Cost fieldandyoumust

Cost for Order Units per Supplier
In the Professional and
Enterprise version 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 down into the
different units.
TIPS: 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 Lists on the Main
Window,pickingItem. On the Item List, select the item you want to
change and then click the Edit button. This only changes the cost that is

The List Price and Sale Price fields on the Create New Item screen are for
informational purposes only. These fields are not used on any reports.
