Valuation Method:
Specify either FIFO or Average.
Replacement Cost Basis:
The replacement cost can be calculated by taking the average unit price of the last 3 purchases or by taking the supplier list price and multiplying it by a costing multiplier.
If unsure leave as the default.
Negative Stock Security:
Specify the security level required to allow negative stock situations. The default is 10 which means nobody can create negative stock.
If stock goes into negatives this creates problems for stock costing. It is strongly recommended that you consider changing your procedures so that all stock is receipted into the computer when it arrives and so that negative stock situations cannot arise.
