LIFO Cost Rollup

Simply speaking it will allocate the cost for the last purchased unit that is avalible in your inventory.

You can read more about the design details here.

Date Qty Price

1 november 2023 1 10,00

2 november 2023 1 15,00

3 november 2023 1 17,00

So if you have these inventory movement and you sell them on 3 different sales ordre.

The first order will have a cost of 17, the secound a cost of 15 and the 3de one a cost of 10.

Hope this helps.

Please follow up with more detailed questions if you have any.
