Costing method on product

 

Dear Fabien and Els,

I've a question on the costing method of a product especially for Average Method in the OpenERP book for logistigs it is clearly written on page 88 that the product price will be
automatically computed by OpenERP. (as it always was)(see below)
You also describe an Update fuunction for the Standard price method (see below)

With 6.0.3, it seems that the Update function is appearing for Average method and not for Standard price

Could you please update me on that topic.

Regards

Maurice


To get an automated periodic revaluation of the standard price you can use the action Update on the product form, enabling you to update prices of all the selected products. OpenERP then recalculates the price of the products as a function of the cost of raw materials and the manufacturing operations
given in the routing.

Average Price
Working with standard prices does not lend itself well to the management of the cost price of products when the prices change a lot with the state of the market. This is the case for many commodities and
energy.
In this case, you would want OpenERP to automatically set the price in response to each goods receipt movement into the warehouse. The deliveries (exit from stock) have no impact on the product price.
