No, that product price is not the product average cost. Product
average cost is calculated as the average cost of inventory items
received.
The financials module should be modified to use a standard cost if no
average cost is found. This would work better for your needs and
make it a little more flexible. You can set up standard costs in
Products > Costs.
I'll add it as a TODO.
In the meantime, you can go into WebTools > entity data maintenance
and manually insert a ProductAverageCost. Sorry.

Here is the error when I try to quick ship a Product who's Product

get the ProductAverageCost problem with a regular Product? BTW, I
have already added a Price Type: Average Cost, Purpose: Purchase/
Initial. Do I have to link it to Party Company?
Thanks again for the help. Michael

Thanks for the prompt reply!
Yes, the service is something that our company does. (Sorry for
the ambiguity,
I'm not referring to an ofbiz service in the ofbiz java/mini-lang/
ECA sense of
the term.)
To illustrate, we sell some Products, for example we sell some
computers, and we
offer some Services, for example we fix your computer if it's
broken. We charge
for the Products and Services. So I can enter a new Product and
ship it (a new
PC)and enter a payment and see all the workings in the accounting
books. But if
I create a new Product that is a Service, does it make sense to
'ship' that
Service? like this:
Catalog | Main | Create New Product | <enter some info here> ...
Product Type
dropdown: I choose Service | give it a price, put it in a category
and a catalog
etc
I place an order for that Product who's Product Type is Service.
Go through the
entire order process, when I finally get to the Order #WS12345
Information page,
this order is still only an order, it isnt a sale, so it's not in
the accounting
books. What do I do next to convert this order into a sale? With a
regular
Product (Finished Good) I can ship it and it converts into a sale
and I see it
in the accounting books. However, with a Service, is it
appropriate to 'ship'
the service? Do I click on 'quick ship' to indicate that the
service has been
provided?
Thanks for your help. Michael

Hi,
How do I get a service into the books?
Here are my assertions: (correct me if I'm wrong)
1) A Product must be shipped or packed before an invoice is
generated and
the
transaction put in the books.
2) A service (which is a special type of Product) cannot be
shipped or
packed.
So I must be missing something, if the only way to get the Order
into the
accounting books (convert it to a sale) is to ship it and a
Service (product)
cannot be shipped, then I cannot convert a Service into a sale.
is there some other mechanism to get the fulfillment of a
service into the
accounting books, ie convert a service into a sale?
Thanks Michael
