There are several types of internal prices that can be created. This document will outline the steps in the Field Products Internal Prices creation process. The process is the same for all types unless otherwise noted. If actual costing is used, then the product will be transferred based on the internal price. The period end process will adjust the internal price to actual price. If standard costing is utilized, then the internal price establishes the standard price to be used in the system. If standard cost methods are used and the Protein Cost Mode is set to Standard and Actual or Standard with Variance, click here to review the details that need to be entered.

If Current Cost is selected, then there cannot be a value entered in the price field. The value transferred to the facility or farm is based on the current cost using FIFO or Average Cost mode.
The Active flag is selected by default. When the price is no longer required, de-select the flag to set the price as inactive.
