In order to purchase medications, a cost type must first be created to book the medications under.
To do this, go to Setup → Codes → Accounts and press new.
Then enter a unique Code, abbreviation and description can be chosen freely. We recommend to make the description ‘medicines’. If necessary, set the Default contact and divide the cost item over the different Production stages to book the cost per category, added up it should always be 100%. It is possible to create multiple cost items if you want to report them financially tightly per animal category.
Select Group number 3 - Healtcare. Check the box next to Active. The rest of the entries are optional. Press save to confirm the entry.
This Cost Type will later be used to enter medications. When you uses only one Cost Type to supply medications, it is wise to lock it into the Medication Supply event so that incorrect entries do not happen.
