Enter Invoice Line - GP

By default, Micronet calculates the gross profit percentage on an invoice line based on the cost, price and any applicable discount for the default supplier. This figure displays in the GP Percentage field on the Enter Invoice Line screen.

However, you can also set the GP percentage on an invoice line using a different price from an alternative supplier. You might do this, for example, if you bought the item at a cost price that was either lower or higher than normal.

Display the Enter Invoice Line screen.

Refer to "Entering Invoice Lines - Standard" or "Enter Invoice Line - Extra (v2.8)".

Select the GP button next to the GP Percentage field.

Micronet displays the Enter GP Percentage On Line screen. The prices and gross profit figures at the bottom of the screen are the default supplier figures as set in the Inventory master file.

Complete the following fields:

	Field	Value
	Enter Cost Base	Select the cost base on which you want the GP percentage calculated. Options are: Average Cost - use the average cost for the item from the alternate supplier Last Cost - use the last cost price for the item from the alternate supplier, i.e. the last cost at which you bought the item from the supplier BUY 1 - BUY 8 - use a selected cost price for the item from the alternate supplier, e.g. a specific cost at which you bought the item from the supplier.
	Apply New Price using	Select how you want the new price applied - Nett or Discount.
	Discount Percentage	Enter a value in one of the remaining fields depending on how you want the new price calculated. If you want to achieve a specific discount percentage on the cost price, enter the percentage.
	Discount Dollars	If you want to achieve a specific discount dollar amount on the cost price, enter the amount in dollars.
	GP Percentage	If you want to achieve a specific GP percentage on the cost price, enter the percentage.
	GP Dollars	If you want to achieve a specific GP dollar amount on the cost price, enter the amount.
	Line Total	If you want the new price calculated based on the line total, enter the total value for the line.

When you enter an amount and press Tab, Micronet displays updates the figures for the default supplier at the bottom of the screen.

To select a different cost price from an alternate supplier, select the Alt Supplier button.

Micronet displays the Select Alternate Supplier screen.

This screen displays the following information:

	Field	Value
	Supplier	The ID of each alternate supplier for the item.
	Base Cost	The alternate supplier's buy price using the base cost selection from the Enter GP Percentage On Line screen.
	Rebate	The alternate supplier rebate amount set for the item (refer to "File - Inventory - Supplier").
	Price	The price that is calculated using the base cost value and the GP percentage value from the Enter GP Percentage On Line screen.

If you want Micronet to reduce the base cost price by the rebate amount displayed when calculating the price and GP percentage, check the Consider Supplier Rebate box.
Double click on the alternate supplier you want to select, or select a supplier and press Enter.

Micronet redisplays the Enter GP Percentage On Line screen with figures at the bottom of the screen updated for the new supplier.

When you are satisfied with the supplier and the figures displayed, select the Accept button to return to the Enter Invoice Line screen.
