AR Credit memo screen

In the AR Credit memo screen when would you check the box that says "enable setting cost". Also what should the return cost be right on that same line. Should the return cost be the price per item or the entire return cost?

You use this option when you enter credit memo with quantity posting that is not created by copying from AR invoice. So you use this option to manually enter the value of goods that are being received to warehouse (if you copy AR invoice to AR credit memo, item value is generated automatically by item cost from AR invoice). You enter value per item, total value is multiplied by receiving quantity.
