Please log in for more thread options Todd,
I receive items by the case (parent) item and sell them by the each
(child). When I run a receiving report it will show the last cost,
retail price (parent item) and my gross margin. I am looking for a
report that I would run after receiving my items, which would show me my
gross margin for the child based upon the cost I just paid for the
parent item. The program works fine as far as updating the costs.
Thanks,
Jay
