Hi Markus,

Thanks for your answer!

I know that the field was not intented for the use that I wanted but I
was hoping that it could be used for it (fx. by coding).

This system works great for items on hand. Sometimes we make
salesorders for things that we are only ordering when the customer
buys them. To have the full idea of the gross margin on the different
orders using the same item number will not work then the stock is zero.

Eg:
Item 1, last costprice 25

I want:
Order 1, item 1, costprice 10, sales price 20 = Gross margin 10
Order 2, item 1, costprice 15, sales price 20 = Gross margin  5

I get: 
Order 1, item 1, costprice 25, sales price 20 = Gross margin -5
Order 2, item 1, costprice 25, sales price 20 = Gross margin -5

The system will take the costprice from the item data and it cannot be
different as in my "I want"-example.

Even after updating the purchase order with new purchase the system
will not take the cost from that purchase and use when calculating.

Any ideas?
