Hi,

I wanna set the cost when receiving products from a vendor.  I just use Inventory ->Receipts-> Product and Number of unit, but there is no cost to  enter.  And the cost of the product is not the same every time.  So I cannot just update the cost on the product page.  Should I need to install Purchase module for this(Note: I  have  not  yet  installed)? Or any other places I can key in the cost when receiving the products to reflect the actual cost?

Thanks!

Follow up below steps   

  1. Assign product category for the product 
  2. Go to the product category and setup costing method  (FIFO or Average) and inventory valuation method (Automated)
  3. Install purchase module
  4. Create a purchase order with the product, quantity and unit cost
  5. Validate the purchase order and the receipt 
  6. Go to the product and see the cost field. Cost is updated automatically based on your  costing method. 

You can purchase the same product for different price and it will reflect in the product cost.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I wanna set the costing method to be FIFO and set inventory valuation to be automated. When I save the settings, it got invalid fields: Stock valuation account, Stock input account, and Stock output account.

Shall these be automatically created? Or need to setup somewhere?

Did you install the invoicing module?
