Fixing an item sold with a bad cost in the past:
1) First let's look at the
Detailed Sales Report and you come across an item with bad cost.
2) Take note of the
ticket number,
date,
stock number, and
cost.
3) Go to
Inventory Manager and locate the item.
4)
Modify the item and verify if the items cost is still bad. If the item still has a bad cost, proceed to the next step. If the items cost is not the “bad” amount noted before, then 1.) take note of the
current cost and
average cost (if the average cost is not out of whack), and 2.) input the bad cost into the Last cost field and select the
Reset Avg Cost button.
5) Go to
Sales Manager and find the transaction with the bad cost using the
ticket number.
6) Select
Copy sale.
7) Change the Date of the sale to the date of the original transaction by pressing
Ctrl Alt D
8.) Return the item
9) Now go back to
Inventory Manager, locate the item and fix the bad cost and Reset Avg cost.
10) Resell the item using the change date Feature
(Ctrl Alt D) again.
11) Check your report to verify that the Item has been corrected. You should see using the
Detailed Sales Report a corrective negative transaction and then the item sold under the proper cost.
