Clarification on the possibility of assigning expense costs, such as shipping and customs, directly to the product in the system.
Answer:
Expenses cannot be loaded directly onto the product in the system. The expense is recorded in the Expense account separately, or the cost can be distributed manually when recording a purchase invoice.
Practical Example:
- Purchased 100 units of a product at a price of 50 SAR per unit.
- Shipping and transportation costs amounted to 500 SAR.
- Transportation cost per unit = 500 ÷ 100 = 5 SAR.
- New price per unit = 50 + 5 = 55 SAR.
- When recording a purchase invoice, the unit price is entered at 55 SAR to ensure the cost is calculated correctly.
Additional Notes:
- Manual cost distribution requires manual adjustment of product cost prices to ensure the accuracy of financial reports.
- There is no automatic procedure for loading expenses onto products within the system.
