This section will show a list of Order Products, which are separated into individual Purchase Order Lines.

### Updating Cost Prices

It is possible to update a variety of information in this section, all relating to the individual Purchase Order Lines. When doing so, there are two buttons:

#### Update Products

This will only save changes to this Purchase Order, e.g. if you change a Cost Price, it will only apply to this Purchase Order.

#### Update Cost Prices

This will be greyed out by default, but becomes useable when the User amends the Cost Price on a Purchase Order Line. If pressed, this will save the change against the Product (specifically the Variant/Unique Stock Record) on the Purchase Order.

<p class="callout warning">This will update the ongoing Cost Price for that item, which will be used on all ongoing Purchase Orders and Sales Orders. This may also affect Price Changes when using the Price Management screen.</p>

It is not possible to apply this to only one of the lines on a Purchase Order - it will either save the Cost Price against all Products, or none of them.
