re-adjust inventory costs

Hi,
 
We sometimes get a sum of money from a vendor to put against an item to bring the cost price down, is there a way to handle this in BC. I have seen charge items and that's fine against a full PO but we want to apply a cost adjustment against just the items in stock and post a purchase credit menu to a ledger. 
 
Example 
Item A
Unit Cost £100
Costing method = Average
Qty = 20
item A costs £100 been buying and selling for over a year, but sales over the last 6 months have slowed down so we speak to the vendor who offers a sum of money to bring the costs down to help us sell them. 
 
Vendor gives us a credit for £400 which we want to apply to bring the Unit Cost down to £80 each. 
 
This is just for current stock not previously posted sales invoices. 
 
Thanks

    For this you will have to use item revaluation as i describe in my blog article here:
     
    Then you will have to manually post a creditmemo through a journal against the vendor or through a purchase creditmemo posted to a G/L account.
     
    You could also assign an item chare to part of a purchase receipt as described here.
     
    But the revaluation method might give you better control over what is going on.
