Outsourcing Work

This manual describes how one can receive a product and send this product out to an external supplier. This supplier changes the product and charges you an admin fee for the work done, however you receive a different product back into stock with the additional value.

The first thing one must do is work out what products are been created.

Example

Raw material Aluminum sheet- Cost R1000-00 per sheet

Qty

L-shape bracket 1 R200-00

U-shape bracket 1 R500-00

T-shape bracket 1 R300-00

Cutting cost by Supplier R500-00

End products coming back into stock – Total cost of this must be R1500-00

The system will also work out the additional price per product.

Qty

L-shape bracket 1 R400-00

U-shape bracket 1 R600-00

T-shape bracket 1 R500-00

Here is the process you will follow.

1 Bring in raw material stock
2 Create a outsource supplier
3 Do a stock return for the value of the stock item to this outsource supplier
4 Do a GRV with importation spilt of the new items against this outsource supplier

Brining in current stock via a GRV

Create an outsource supplier – normally the name of the supplier with outsource in front.

 

Sending out the sheets to the supplier

When capturing the stock to go out to the outsource supplier, make sure it is at the average cost price of the item.

Make sure that you select Non-VAT, as you have already claimed the VAT on the actual GRV of raw materials stock.

 

Stock return to Outsource supplier

This way you can track how much stock the supplier has that you have sent him.

 

You will notice in your outsource supplier age analysis that it is in credit

GRV incoming of new stock

Some points to remember

The stock items must be the cost value of the cost price of the Aluminium.

Value out equals value in.

 

Next step is to add the value of the cutting of the other supplier onto the GRV. We will do this by doing the importation split.

On the GRV, click on More details button

 

Then click on the Importation Split

 

Then click on the Insert Line button to add the invoice from the supplier who charged for the cutting of the sheet.

 

This is where you will insert the supplier invoice with the VAT.

Click on close to update the GRV lines and then SAVE and CLOSE button

 

The GRV lines will be updated with the new additional unit cost of the cutting which then gets added to the item cost.

 

If you are not happy with the additional cost per item you can manually allocate the additional costs to the items.

Go to More details button and then click on Manual Importation Split button, this allows one to put your own cost price in per item.

 

In this one action, the new finished goods are updated, the added value to the items are updated and the supplier invoice is captured into the system.

The Outsource Creditor will balance to zero,

IF the value does not balance you can journal out the value to a Cost of sales account to balance the creditor account.

Outsource GRV Ledger accounts

As you can see the stock has increased by the new value

GRV with Importation Split

Creditors/Suppliers > Activity> GRV

Typically, one would only use the importation split function when purchasing from a foreign supplier in the respective foreign currency.

Let’s use the below sample data:

Standard Vatable cartage/shipping charges R 1800
Capture the GRV as you would normally do
Select the Foreign supplier
Enter the Date
Enter the Description
Enter the Reference
Enter the exchange Rate applicable in this case 14

This is the exchange rate at which the item was secured. Also know as Spot rate in most cases.

Your screen will now look as follow:

Select the item

Enter the quantity

Enter the Purchase price (in the foreign currency, in this case $30)

Your screen should then look as follows:

 

 

Once all the items have been captured, you can proceed to capture the Shipping invoice:

On the above screen, click the Importation Split Button

Then click the Add Button

On this screen you are going to enter the details on the Shipping or Cartage company Invoice

Select the shipping Company in the Creditor field

Enter the invoice number (invoice number of the shipping company)

Enter a Reference

Enter the Order number

Enter the Description: The description could be the line-item description on the shipping invoice, if you are capturing each line individually.

OR you could capture all the Non-Vatable Line Items as a single line and the al the Vatable Lines items as another line

And finally, the Custom VAT line item as the 3rd Line

  

 

 

Once the transaction is processed
