The Item Cost Analysis by Location report shows total purchases over the date range of the report that are broken out by COGS Category per location. Hyperlinked items enable a User to drill into the report to review the current cost and recent transactions. It is important to note that this report only analyzes purchases and does not factor in inventory.
This report is beneficial in checking the total purchases for each category or item with Categories and Locations side-by-side. The totals and averages can then be used in future negotiations with vendors on price breaks based on historical volumes.
