Purchase price

Menu item purchase price is the total purchase price of the stock items that go into the menu item. Purchase price can therefore only be calculated for menu items that are associated with a stock item.

Note

Purchase price is used both for menu items and menu item shortcuts.

Price(p) (unit, menu) = Price(p)(stock item)*Volume(stock item)/Volume(menu)

Menu item purchase price recalculation is carried out using on-hand stock items that have been registered in stores of the selected group within the selected period. The interval used for recalculation of stock item purchase price is specified in the Store groups directory.

The Purchase price reports display two different prices:

Purchase price per portion (Price (port.)) - purchase price for one portion of the menu item (or menu item shortcut). This is the total purchase price of stock items required to make one portion of the menu item.
Purchase price per unit of measure (Price (ea.)) - purchase price for one unit of measure of the menu item (or menu item shortcut). This is the total purchase price of stock items required to make one unit of measure of the menu item.

The Purchase price operational report can be displayed for selected store groups or for selected menu items in all store groups. These options are represented by two commands in the Purchase price submenu:
