# Sales Cost Variance Handling
The default method is defined on the TradeQloud Setup record, but can be modified on budget / transaction records.
For example a Sales Cost Purchase Order is created for €500 (1000 quantity @ 0,50)
The following accounts are defined on the SC - Private Labelling Item:
If a Vendor Bill is then created from the Purchase Order for a rate of 0,75 (resulting in a €250 variance)
The application will then create a Journal to capture this variance in the general ledger
