Use this form to view and maintain item cost records for a specified costing version, effective date, and site (when you use multisite functionality). Data maintenance includes entering pending costs for a purchased item, calculating pending costs for a manufactured item, and activating pending cost records. Activating a pending cost record will change its status from pending to active, and will change its effective date to the activation date. The form displays pending and active cost records on different tabs. Different cost records for an item may reflect a different costing version, site, effective date, or status.

The form can be opened from the form or from the form. When opened from the form, you can view and maintain all of the item cost records within the costing version. Open the form from the form to activate multiple item cost records.

The form can also be used to view and maintain information about item sales price records and item purchase price records within a costing version. Generate an item's sales price record by using the form to calculate an item's sales price.
