FAQs: Why does the extended cost for an item not match the vendor invoice?


Q: Why does the extended cost for an item not match the vendor invoice?

A: The Extended Cost (automatically calculated by Yellow Dog) may not match the Extended Price or Total Cost for an item from the vendor invoice due to unit prices that are fractions of a cent (ex. $3.459). 

Q: How do I resolve this issue?

A: You can fix this issue by editing the Extended Vendor Price column:
  1. Click the Change Columns hyperlink located within the invoice.

  2. Select the box for Extended Vendor Price then click OK.

  3. Enter the total vendor price for the item in the Extended Vendor Price field.




Figure 1. The Extended Cost field will automatically update to the entered amount in the Extended Vendor Price field.
