How to Sell a Product Below Its Cost Price

Enable the “Sell items even if its < cost” option (when needed) to complete sales transactions without interruption.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

When adding products to Rewaa, it’s important to set a selling price higher than the cost price to calculate net income correctly. However, in some cases, you may need to sell a product below its cost — for example, to clear slow-moving stock, increase sales through promotions, or reduce losses when a product is near its expiry date. That’s why Rewaa offers this option.

ℹ️ Note:

When the Sell Below Cost Price option is enabled, it will apply to all products in the sales screen and cannot be limited to a single product.


Enable the “Sell Below Cost Price” Option

  1. Go to Sales & Customers > Sales Settings.

  2. Click Sales.

  3. Enable the Sell items even if its < cost option.

  4. Click Save.

  5. Go to the sales register and start issuing invoices.
