User Defined Field Labels - Extra Costs

This page describes the User Defined Field Labels - Extra Costs setting in the Stock module.

---

The Goods Receipt and Purchase Order records contain five fields that you can use to collect any "extra costs". In both cases, these fields are shown on the 'Extra Costs' card. In the case of the Goods Receipt, when you mark one as OK and save, any amounts in these fields will be credited to the corresponding Extra Cost Accrual Accounts on the 'Purchase Cost' card of the Account Usage Stock setting.

The User Defined Field Labels - Extra Costs setting in the Stock module allows you to assign names to these Extra Costs so that every user knows what to enter into each one.

To work with this setting, first ensure you are in the Stock module. Then, if you are using Windows or macOS, click the [Settings] button in the Home Screen and double-click 'User Def. Field Labels - Extra Costs' in the resulting list. If you are using iOS or Android, select 'Settings' from the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon) and tap 'User Def. Field Labels - Extra Costs' in the 'Settings' list. The 'User Defined Field Labels - Extra Costs: Inspect' window opens. Make changes as required and then click the [Save] button (Windows/macOS) or tap √ (iOS/Android) to save changes and close the window. Click the close box (Windows/macOS) or tap < (iOS/Android) if you do not want to save changes.

Enter field labels as appropriate and as shown in the illustration. You may need to restart Standard ERP to see any changes. The field labels will be used on the 'Purchase Cost' and 'Variances' cards of the Account Usage Stock setting:

The same field labels will appear on the 'Extra Costs' card of the Goods Receipt (and on flip H of the 'Items' card):

They will also appear on the 'Extra Costs' card of the Purchase Order (and on flip E of the 'Items' card).
