Tip of the Month

It is the valuation method of an item that determines which type of cost will be used in the Purchase Order, Sales Order, and Inventory modules. Depending on the module, there is a definitive cost hierarchy, based on the item’s valuation method, used to determine the final cost for the item. (click 'read more...' for more details)
