This field contains the most recent direct unit cost that was paid for the items.
The program automatically copies the latest direct unit cost from the Direct Unit Cost field in the Purchase Line table when you post an order as invoiced. If you use journals, the program copies the direct unit cost from the Unit Amount field on item journal lines of the Purchase entry type.
The program will use the direct unit cost as a default the next time you enter the item on a purchase line or on an item journal line with the entry type Purchase or Positive Adjmt.
