Commtrack™ has five options on where to get costs from. The options appear on the Commission option screen when you click on Setup Options.

Purchase – The costs will come directly from the item list. If you edit an item you will see this screen.

As you can see the cost is displayed and you can enter it here. This is true with Non-Inventory parts as well as Inventory parts as long as the checkmark appears next to "This item is used in assemblies or is purchased for a specific customer job".

Average Cost – The cost for this option is taken from the Inventory Detail valuation report. This is the average cost of the item at the time the customer was invoiced. This option only applied to Inventory items as they only would have a Inventory Detail valuation report.

If this option is selected and the item is not found on the valuation report CommTrack™ will use the Purchase Cost from the item.

SO PO INV – This option is selected if you create PO’s and Invoices from a Sales Order. When you have a Sales Order Open and look to the top right hand side you see this drop down.

When you create a PO from a Sales Order it puts the Sales Order number in the memo field of PO’s created this way.

This is how CommTrack gets the costs related to the items on that PO. For this to work properly you need to invoice from the Sales order the same way you create a PO.

If CommTrack does not find a match on an item it will look to for an average cost (only Inventory items). If no cost is found it will then use the purchase cost of the item.

Bill Invoice: This option allows you to get the cost directly from a bill. The only requirement is that you use the Bill number is the invoice number.

If CommTrack does not find a match on an item it will look to for an average cost (only Inventory items). If no cost is found it will then use the purchase cost of the item.

Job Costing: If you use JOBs you get get the exact costs you can get the exact costs in using our custom field called "STD COST". Just run your Job Profitability report and take the total cost and enter it on one of the line items on your invoice.
