Hi Edgard, you can store that sort of info in the notes/memo fields of a transaction- but that may not be what you are looking for, as you will still have to do a manual calculation. The other coice that you might be able to make work for you is to use the business features - a bill has quantity & unit cost columns. But it might make things overly complicated.
