With this update, you can now enter both Cost to Business and Cost to Customer 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.
- Add a new purchase from this button.
- 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.
