Cost Item Pricing Methods

Cost Items don't calculate right if I change the pricing method!

This is a known bug in Goldenseal estimating software versions 2.4 to 2.7. It's fixed in Goldenseal 2.71.

If you change the pricing method of a Cost Item from one method to another, Goldenseal does not correctly update the cost. In some cases it may fill in an incorrect value.

The short term cure-- use the Latest Price option. The next time you enter a price for this item, Goldenseal will correctly update it.

HINT-- If you'd like to update material prices without entering an actual purchase, create a Material Purchase record, give it an Item breakdown, and change the status to Pricing Only. It will update prices but won't show up in billing or job costing.
