Kits, Consignment and Costing: FIFO or Weighted Average
Built kits and consignment on one cost engine
Kit material cards carry component lines; build posts component out and kit in. Consignment receipt raises consigned quantity; issues create consignment usage for invoicing. Costing uses weighted average or FIFO cost layers; switching opens a single layer for existing quantity. Stock value reports show method; cost-layer report lists FIFO layers.
