How to manually enter item cost values

Every cost basis has its own item cost values. When a cost basis is assigned to a cost calculation method, the calculation setup for the method is applied to the related item cost values to determine cost references. These references are used to calculate item sales prices.

You can enter item cost values manually or use a codeunit calculation.

Steps

  1. In the search box, enter Cost Bases, and then choose the related link.
  2. On the Cost Basis List page, select a cost basis line.
  3. On the Navigate tab, in the Cost Basis group, choose Item Cost Values. The Item Cost Basis List page appears.
  4. In the Cost Date field, enter the date for which you want the entered cost values to take effect.
  5. On each line, fill in the cost value you want to assign to the item for the entered cost date.

Notes An item cost value is valid until the cost date of the following cost value. For example, if an item cost value is entered with a cost date of September 1 and a second one is entered with a cost date of September 8, the first cost value is applicable up to September 7.
