Example documentationQuantity Calculation Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You have in stock a 1.20 m high fence. It is sold in meters; however, the price for the sold quantity is based on square meters. To calculate the quantity (the surface area) on which the price is based, the system must multiply the sold length by the height of the fence.

In this case, the length of the fence is determined with factor 1 and the height (1.20 m) with factor 2.

The system automatically sets all the factors to 1.

You can enter any number of factors, or none at all. The entries you make here are copied to the business transaction documents in Purchasing and Sales. You can overwrite the factors in the row information.

Note Note

If you use the factors for a large number of your items, you can use the settings for the transactions in Purchasing or Sales to display the fields directly when you enter the document. In this case, you do not need to call up the row information to change them.

End of the note.
Moving Average Field

This field is displayed only if you work with a perpetual inventory system. SAP Business One valuates all items with the moving average price. This is calculated from the average price of the goods received in the warehouse and the quantity of items in stock. The average price of the item is determined automatically by the system and displayed in this field.

None, Manage Serial Numbers, and Manage Batch Numbers Options

You can set an appropriate flag that indicates whether you maintain serial numbers for your item, or manage it in batches. The system recognizes the indicators and processes the items accordingly.
