Cost Price of purchased goods

["V.S." <Va...@premiumwine.com.ua>]

Is it possible somehow when purchasing the goods to add to the cost price
some additional components?
I understand that now, when posting the goods to the finance affects
approximately as follows:

Db: Inventory Cr: Shipment not invoiced

I would like to get the additional transaction like:

Db: Inventory Cr: Some Additional Costs

and in new Lot 
Lot Cost Price = Purchase Price + Some Additional Costs

This is due to the fact that under our legislation we are entitled to add to
the cost of purchased goods some additional cost (transport, custom, etc.)

See Vol I pages 93-96
the estimated Costing model is for projecting cost, in the future. it is 
not tied to production, and is one of my arguments about having 
manufacturing in the base applications.
The estimate cost would be used to determine budgeting, or FOB of a product.

Ofbiz made a generic CostComponent model that lets you have both 
estimated and actual cost per the link I showed you.
see the actual_other_cost using the General Cost Calc which puts the 
cost in costGlAccountTypeId="OPERATING_EXPENSE".

the Automatic Cost calc is only setup for Estimated.
you need to add one for Actual.
or you would then setup one  activated by an SECA on the order if you 
want it split out this way.


you can look at getProductCost
in application/product/scripts/org/ofbiz/product/cost/CostServices.xml
for a template of how to write one to accomplish what you want todo

Just tried again on https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/
I added 2 different cost components to the product and bought it. No any
additional posting in finance is not created and  lot cost price of a new
lot  is not affected.
Maybe somewhere there is at least a brief instruction on how to use Cost
Components?

Yes, I saw it. But all my attempts with this somehow influence the forming
of cost price for PURCHASING goods failed. And I thought that this scheme
works only for the production.
