Price from production cost
A cost-based list has no parent. It reads each product’s production cost, which comes from its bill of materials and operations, and turns it into a price with a rule. When a material gets more expensive or the recipe changes, the price recomputes.
Create the list
Section titled “Create the list”- Open Sales → Price lists and click Add price list.
- Enter the Name, choose the Currency.
- Set Calculation type to Cost based.
- Click Add price list, then Configure derivation rule.
- Choose how cost becomes price:
| Rule kind | Value | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Production cost × markup | 2 | Double the cost. 1.3 is cost plus 30%. |
| Production cost + amount | 5 | Cost plus a fixed amount, in the list’s currency |
| Markup % | 40 | Cost plus 40% |
| Discount % | 10 | Cost minus 10% |
| Fixed price | 12 | A flat price for every product on the list, ignoring its cost |
- Type a cost in Example production cost to see the result, then click Apply rule.
There is no currency conversion: production cost is already in the workspace’s cost currency, and the list currency is where the result lands.
Products left without a price
Section titled “Products left without a price”A product with no production cost and no recipe is left unpriced. In the product’s Variants & prices tab, click the dot in the cell to open the price trace, which gives the reason: Product cost is missing.
