With this update, you can now enter both Cost to Business and Cost to Client directly when logging a purchase in Purchase History. This is especially useful for purchases made outside of Ply, so you can still keep complete financial records inside the system.
Where to find it
Go to the material in your catalog.
From the material’s detail page, click on Purchase History.
3. Add a new purchase from this button.
4. In the form, you’ll now see these fields:
Supplier Name
Cost to Business (the amount your company paid)
Cost to Customer (the amount you will charge your customer)
Purchase Date - So you can save your history.
Location
Job
Why it’s useful
Lets you record purchases made outside Ply while still capturing key cost data.
Ensures your purchase history reflects both sides of the transaction.
By filling in both fields, you’ll have more accurate reporting and a clearer view of profitability, even for purchases not directly managed through Ply.
