In the sell menu, we can set up to display the product cost. Usually, this configuration setup is used for admins who want to input sales transactions and want to know the product cost without switching menus from the sell to the products menu, this configuration setup may help the user to process checking the product cost in the Sell menu.
Before configuring product costs, ensure that your account/username has access to the Products - Cost role. Because even if you want to display the product cost when selling if the user who opens the sell menu doesn't have access to that role, they still won't be able to see it.
I. Enable Configuration
Step 1. Go to Setup, Click More Menu, then Choose Module
Step 2. Go to Sell Tab, then Scroll Down to Cost Section
Step 3. Set Cost to Visible, then Click Save
Notes :
The "Enable" configuration next to "Visible" is a feature for editing costs when creating sales transactions.
II. View Product Cost During Sales Transaction
Step 1. Go to Sell, then Add Item to Cart
Step 2. Click on Product
Step 3. Choose Product Tab, then Check Product Cost
If you set the enable Cost to "No" but the visibility is "Yes", you can only check the product's unit cost and cannot edit the unit cost.
