I need to consume pots to make a finished good. I’m automating this process. I need to find the UNIT PRICE for these pots.

 

I used INItemCost.AvgCost as my source for this data. Is this incorrect? It’s returning 0’s on items who have a cost that we hold a position on. What is the best table/field to use to get the current AVG unit cost for an item?

 

Thank you for helping me along!

​@Michaelh That field is a calculated field and probably only shows the value on the form it is being used. However, the same Table INItemCost has QtyOnHand, TotalCost, Min and Max Cost as well as LastCost value for the item. So in case you want the average you may use TotalCost/QtyOnHand.
