Common Elements Used in This Section

Domestic Cost

Review and/or enter a cost per unit in this field. This field displays the amount in the domestic currency.

Foreign Cost

Extended Amount

Enter the amount, which is the number of units multiplied by the unit price. You can also use this field to enter a lump sum amount. If you enter a lump sum amount, do not enter a quantity. The system always displays the extended amount in the domestic currency so that this amount appears in the same currency as that in the Total Amount field.

The item numbers are:

  • Item Number (short): An eight-digit, computer-assigned item number.

  • 2nd Item Number: The 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number.

  • 3rd Item Number: Another 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number.
