Buffer stock from supplier
Question: We purchase Product A from Supplier 100 pcs $22/piece (total $2200). We also get buffer stock of Product A (10 pcs $0/piece) from the same supplier. How do we create Supplier Invoice so the COGS per piece is $20?
Because in real contract, we just purchase 100 pcs. 10 pcs Buffer Stocks must be excluded from $2200.
NB: $2200 / 110 pcs = $20
