Costing & Profit Allocation
Since all the bills are accounted for in Zoho, it would be easy to automatically show how much it costs to make an item, then manually input margins for various entities such as distributor, retailer and company's to arrive at what the MRP should be. I can give a futuristic SKU for the product I am going to make with a name and tag my bills to that SKU. Even budgeting can be done for deciding how much I can ideally spend to make a product and help me choose raw materials/sourcing accordingly. I am currently doing all of this in an excel sheet with formulas which is a double entry. And I have to do the in reverse once I receive payment to seperate capital and profit allocations. The "Profit first" system is a very disciplined format esp for a small entrepreneur to manage finances
