Style costing that survives the second lot

Style costing is often a one-time calculation done to quote a price. Kept on the style instead, it becomes the thing that tells you whether the second and third lots are still profitable.

Style costing that survives the second lot

Cost the style, not the quotation

Fabric consumption at current rates, trims, job work charges, packaging and a share of overhead all belong on the style record. Then a rate change at a supplier is a visible margin change, not a surprise at year end.

  • Consumption and material rates held on the style
  • Job work and finishing charges per piece
  • HSN code, tax rate and images alongside costing

Compliance data belongs with the product

HSN codes and tax rates stored on the style mean invoices are correct by default. Kept in a separate list, they get copied wrongly exactly once and then repeated for a year.

Catalogues from the same record

When catalogues are generated from product data, the specification and rate a customer sees match the record you sell from - and updating a price does not mean rebuilding a deck.

Takeaway

Hold consumption, costing, HSN and images on the style so pricing, invoicing and catalogues all stay consistent.
