Average cost and supplier cost
This page explains how the average cost and supplier cost are being used in Cienapps
Â
You can access the product table by selecting the product under the supplying menu
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
The product tables give you the following cost and prices information :
Price column is the price of the product (not the supplier cost) but the price that you have configured as the price to be billed to the customer (see below)
Â
You also have the price information at the bottom of the page
Â
The supplier cost is the most recent supplier cost of the product. It is based on the last reception of the product that has happened in Cienapps
Â
Â
From the product file, the average cost takes into consideration all the costs of the reception done by Cienapps.
Â
You can display the average cost by right-clicking on Display prices
Â
To better understand how we calculate the average cast, here’s an example :
If I have one melamine sheet remaining in my inventory that I paid in 2019 at $22. I also have 5 other melamine sheets inventoried and purchased at $27 in 2020. Cienapps will give you an average cost of $26,17.
Â
Here’s the average cost calculation :
$27 x 5 sheets (cost of 2020) + $22 x 1 sheet (cost of 2019) = $157
157$ / 6 melamine sheets (overall stock available) = $26,17
Â
The average cost is taken in Cienapps for inventory report (see below)
Â
The job costing information will be done based on the supplier cost of the Work-Order since it’s contains the most updated cost of the product.
