A costing version can contain content about item sales price records. The primary purpose of allowing sales price content is to retain a manufactured item's calculated sales price, which can be analyzed in terms of cost and sales price contributions of components, routing operations, and overheads. A secondary purpose would be to define the sales price records for component items, which can then be used to calculate the sales price of manufactured items.

To support this secondary purpose, you must define the sales price model embedded in a BOM calculation group, assign the BOM calculation group to purchased items, and select the cost price model (of BOM calculation group) when you perform BOM calculations with planned costs.

Beyond these two purposes, the item sales price records are only used for reference information, whether they are manually entered or calculated. Activating an item's sales price record can update the item's base sales price, but the base sales price is not site-specific, and it can be manually overridden. The item's base sales price acts as a default sales price on sales orders and sales quotations.
