Cost invoices, also known as cost invoices, refer to the costs incurred in the company's commodity sales or commodity processing process. The "cost" mentioned here can be popularly interpreted as the various expenses that enterprises need to pay in the course of operation. To put it simply, the operating profit of a business is the result of subtracting expenses from revenue, and the cost invoice is the basis that a business needs to determine its operating costs.
