Re: Implementing Real Cost

Hi Pedro,

just to get it right / complete, even though valuation by lots i more 
precisely what most companies would use today, LIFO still isn't among 
the list of options if i am not mistaken. So companies that use this 
valuation method still have no other choice then to switch to one of the 
supported methods

- AVCO

- FIFO and

- Valuation by Lots

right? Or are you aware of any LIFO implementation

Best Frederik

  • Implementing Real Cost
    Hello,

    Odoo supports FIFO costing, but this is not the same as real cost.
    For example, when using Lots, I can buy lot A and then Lot B.
    If I choose to consume Lot B first, it will carry the purchase cost of Lot A.

    As far as I know this is a common request from customers, but I couldn't find an existing implementation for it.
    Is there anything I missed out there?

    Thank you!
