To View All Costs to GFI
Click the "Item Cost Change" link on your dashboard.
This will open a grid view that shows all of your current costs provided to GFI and any future cost changes you've entered.
The Start Date is usually a previous cost change request. When you submit a new cost change for an item, the previous cost will end the day before the cost change effective date. Tracking these dates can help your company keep track of what cost changes were submitted for each item. If you have submitted a change that takes effect in the future, you will also see that line.
When you scroll to the right on this screen, you can view the costs submitted for each item. Costs are submitted either FOB or by division.
To View Costs from a Specific Cost Change Approved Request
The user that submitted your cost change request received an email stating it was approved. This email subject and body provides the Cost Change Request ID. You will need this number.
Click the "Item Cost Change" link on your dashboard.
Place your cursor over the Change Request ID header. Three lines should appear. Click this button.
Type the Change Request ID on the line and click APPLY.
The screen will load only the records that were included on that Cost Change Request.
To View Costs for One Item
Click the "Item Cost Change" link on your dashboard.
Place your cursor over the Item header. Three lines should appear. Click this button.
Type the GFI Item Number on the line and click APPLY.
You can see all current and future costs for the single item. A blank Change Request ID means this is the initial cost record for this item-vendor combination. The Start Date 05/01/2024 is the earliest Start Date for costs in this cost-recording process in Mantis.
