Default Cost analysis?

In a supply chain management problem can I add cost analysis?

In my problem I want to calculate the inventory cost of the buyer when I know holding cost and transportation cost per item.
Most urgent please.

Have you read through the information on financial reports in our users manual? Is that what you are looking for?

Mallik,
If you are using an older version you won't have this option. I would suggest getting the new version as soon as you can because it is great. When you do upgrade, there is pretty good documentation on how to do it in the user's manual. For now, the only way I can think of to accomplish what you are looking for is to do it with labels yourself. Maybe someone else will have a good tip for how they used to do this.

Using labels or a table to do your own math during the course of the model is possible. For example, inventory cost is basically just adding an amount of money to a label when something is put in inventory and subtracting when it leaves.
