Inventory Valuation Reports
FIFO Cost Lot Tracking
The FIFO Cost Lot Tracking report shows the inward and outward stock movements for each item based on the First In, First Out (FIFO) costing method. Use this report to view how outgoing stock is matched with the earliest available purchase lots during a selected period.
Scenario: Zylker Inc purchased 20 units of a storage unit at ₹10 each (opening stock), then bought 10 more at ₹12 each against a bill. When Bailey from Zylker invoices 25 units, FIFO matches the first 20 at ₹10 (₹200) and the remaining 5 from the second lot at ₹12 (₹60), leaving 5 units at ₹12 available.
