What should you do to prevent techs from seeing the company's cost for materials while still allowing them to list items?

• A. Unselect "view material cost" in tech permissions
• B. Limit access to financial reports
• C. Provide a separate tracking system for costs
• D. Set up a different account for material costs

Answer: (A)

To ensure that technicians can list items without seeing the company's cost for materials, adjusting permissions is essential. Unselecting the option to "view material cost" in tech permissions effectively allows techs to enter and list inventory items as needed for their tasks while safeguarding sensitive financial information. This approach maintains operational efficiency and protects the company's financial interests.

The other choices would not adequately address the requirement. Limiting access to financial reports might not specifically target the material costs that need to be hidden from technicians while still permitting them to list items. A separate tracking system for costs would create additional complexity and may not fully align with the objective of restricting views of material costs. Setting up a different account for material costs could complicate the existing system without a straightforward way to manage permissions for techs, making it less efficient than simply adjusting their existing permissions.
