Let’s say you are either a new customer or an existing one who has just created or imported a new product. When adding the product, you only entered the Unit Price (selling price) but did not fill in the Unit Cost (capital cost). If you then make a sales transaction before entering the unit cost, the system will record the cost as 0 on the sales invoice. As a result, the profit calculation on that invoice will be inaccurate because the cost is missing.

To fix this, DealPOS provides a tool called Update Unit Cost Range on DealPOS's Tools. This feature allows you to correct previous invoices where the product cost was recorded as 0. Once you update the unit cost in the product settings, you can run this tool to update the invoices so that the cost calculation and profit reporting reflect the correct values. Here is how:
