Fixed Reports not allowing for New Custom Outputs in 3.1
Problem
The VSI - Inventory Cost of Goods Sold Report under the POS Inventory Sales Report will not allow update. I need this report, however I need to use the last cost not the average cost value and I'm unable to update it.
Solution
This is correct. You cannot create a new, custom outputs from a VSI- Fixed report because Fixed reports typically contain calculated fields that will not function in a custom output due to coding requirements on the back end. Any changes to Fixed reports need to go through the Development process.
However other reports often offer similar options. In your specific example, the VSI Inventory Cost of Goods Sold report has the option to report on both Last and Average Cost. This is found on the Report Options screen, which you come to after clicking the Process button.
