Cost list
The cost list records what a supplier charges you, per product:
- Unit cost — the supplier's price per unit.
- Supplier SKU — their code for the product, printed on their paperwork.
- Min order qty — a reminder for you; not enforced.
- Lead time — overrides the supplier's usual lead time for this product.
- Preferred source — the supplier you buy this product from by default.
One product can be on several suppliers' lists at different prices. Linking a product never changes the cost price on the product itself.
Unlink removes the cost record only. The product is untouched.
Disable or delete
- Disable a supplier you no longer use. It disappears from your working list, and you can switch it back.
- Delete removes the supplier and its cost list. Purchase orders already raised are kept and can still be received.
