COGS is something completly different than the computation of the cost price. COGS is always wrong and there are very few countries that does such accounting. > As the name specifies, the moving average price is moving, and not fixed. > And by this, it is time depending > > Extreme case: you get a bonus on your purchase at the end of the month or > year.

Thats the problem with your method As I said in case of anglo-saxon stock accounting, when the cost price of a product is recomputed, the wizard will ask to the user where to put the price difference (using the already existing update cost price wizard). For me, it is the easiest way to manage it and I have personnaly no interest to make it smoother but if someone wants to make a better proposal, patch is welcome. -- Cédric Krier - B2CK SPRL Email/Jabber: cedric.kr...@b2ck.com Tel: +32 472 54 46 59 Website: http://www.b2ck.com/
