Product Charge assignment

[Patrick Kariuki]

1. How do I assign costs associated to a purchased product(e.g
transport, shipping and handling) in order to build up the cost?
2. How do I apply the markup of products based on the consignment
received into stock from a particular supplier?

[BJ Freeman]

it is best you read
http://localhost:8080/cmssite/cms/APACHE_OFBIZ_HTM
and
go to a catalog, pick a product then select cost from the dropdown.
note:
Cost Component Calc Id points of a custom service for doing the
calculations.

you can search the demo data in ecommerce for examples.

Assuming the actual general cost is the weighted average cost, how
then would I assign the charges associated with a consignment received
of 1000+ different products so that their initial purchase cost builds
up. I'm trying to do this from the purchase orders menu but I can't
find a way to assign my transport and shipping/handling charges to
these products.

Assuming I use the Price Rules to generate the sales price, will the %
markup of these products be a percentage of the default price, list
price or margin?

[BJ Freeman]

this is also answered in the documentation I gave you links to.
also there are some books that will help.

Sounds like you have some customization to do, to have it work the way
you want.

I'd like it to work for an automobile company(without the
manufacturing module) that purchases spare parts from Japan/Dubai and
sells the parts to dealers or through vehicle servicing. Also looking
at looking at a way to be able to load the actual labor time put into
the vehicle service all captured on the CRMSFA orders.

Please recommend the books I need.

Many Thanks.

[BJ Freeman]

this is doable with ofbiz with some customization.
it will take you understanding ofbiz.
Not sure  why you focused on CRmSFA model for this.
there is a book link off the main ofbiz.apache.org page.

Thanks.

Most of the entries will have to be made with the crmsfa module since
the Service and parts sales representatives will generate orders hence
this is my focus for customization, the ecommerce module will be
mainly used to sell parts to online retail customers.

have you looked at the order entry this can be used as a portlet in my
portal which would have all the screens the sales person need.
