Columns to note:

  • Currency column, ex. (EUR-€): percentage of the particular row Amount in the report Total Amount. All rows should sum up to 100%.
  • Amount: is the net amount from the Sales Invoice converted to the report Currency.
  • Cost: cost of the goods sold (as per the corresponding cost of the product).
    • There could be product transactions whose cost has not yet been calculated yet, therefore the cost of that transactions is estimated as a "proportional" cost based on the known transaction's cost.
      • In this case, the estimated cost is shown in red color.
  • Profit: is the difference between Amount and Cost.
  • M.%: sales margin as a ratio of Profit to Amount.
  • Weight: of the invoiced product if specified in the Product window.

How the estimated cost is calculated:

In case there is not a calculated cost for some of the retrieved records, it is necessary to estimate it. In order to do so, a generic Unitary Cost for the records with calculated cost is retrieved and, using it, the estimation is performed. The formula works in the following way:

Example: If there is a Product with an Invoice Line of 100€ and it has a calculated cost of 30€, for a line of 200€, the estimated cost should be 60€.

200€ line net amount * (30€ calculated cost/100€ transactions with calculated cost) = 60€. (30€ calculated cost/100€ transactions with calculated cost) is the Unitary Cost.

In a generic scenario, that is not dependent on any dimension like Product:

Estimated Cost = Total Line Net Amount * (Total Calculated Cost/Total Line Net Amount of Transactions with Calculated Cost). Being (Total Calculated Cost/Total Line Net Amount of Transactions with Calculated Cost) the Unitary Cost

This means that the estimation is dependent on the retrieved records. The more records there are and the more grouped they are, the more precise the estimation will be. If the report is split by different dimensions, the estimations can be different and, therefore, the totals can have a minor variation.

There is also possibility to export this report to a PDF or a XLS file:
