[WebERP-developers] inventory costing

[AndyThompson <ath...@mo...>]

Thinking about delving into FIFO and average costing additions to 
webERP.  This will serve as a root message to hopefully get a discussion 
started on what needs to be done to make this happen.

Any controlled item is pretty straightforward since the cost is a one to 
one association.  Should be easy enough to add a cost column to the 
stockserialitems table.  We will need a purchase receipts master table 
to store cost in batches of items received as well as track relief of 
those receipts on sales/transfers etc to calculate the cost against.

Very simplistic (and very incomplete) overview, but hopefully will fuel 
some discussion.  I'm not sure of everything this will impact right now, 
especially in existing functionality.
