Unit of Measure and Average Cost on a Saved Search
I have a saved search for inventory including the serial/lot numbers. I want to show the average cost and the quantity on hand.

This base unit doesn't align with the average cost. How can I get a saved search to align these properly, or is there a report I can use instead that will be accurate?

If the price is a $1000 for 1 mg, then the average cost is showing $1000 on each lot line, which looks like the total value would be $1000 x $4000 when showing the 'inventory: on hand.' It's a mess….
