93- When choosing :guilabel: `Average Cost (AVCO) ` as the :guilabel: `Costing Method `, the numerical
94- value in the :guilabel: `Cost ` field for products in the respective product category will no

96- automatically update based on the average purchase price both of inventory on hand and the costs

93+ When choosing :guilabel: `Average Cost (AVCO) ` as the :guilabel: `Costing Method `, changing the
94+ numerical value in the :guilabel: `Cost ` field for products in the respective product category
95+ creates a new record in the *Inventory Valuation * report to adjust the value of the product. The
96+ :guilabel: `Cost ` amount will then automatically update based on the average purchase price both
97+ of inventory on hand and the costs accumulated from validated purchase orders.

99+ When the :guilabel: `Costing Method ` is changed, products already in stock that were using the
100+ :guilabel: `Standard ` costing method **do not ** change value; rather, the existing units keep their
101+ value, and any product moves from then on affect the average cost, and the cost of the product will
102+ change. If the value in the :guilabel: `Cost ` field on a product form is changed manually, Odoo will
103+ generate a corresponding record in the *Inventory Valuation * report.
