Make wpitem.unitcost in Vendor Currency

This is similar to but perhaps slightly different from MASM-I-1358.

Creating a wpitem record in WOTRACK (either item or serviceitem) and populating a vendor that is set for a foreign (non-base) currency still assumes base currency for unitcost.

Desired behavior is to assume unitcost is in the vendor's currency. This is because any quotes received from the vendor and entered on the wpitem record will be in the vendor's currency and would need to be manually converted by the user to base currency so that and PRs generated from it will be rendered correctly.

The current design creates complication for users and opportunity for error.

    Hello again, and thanks for the feedback so far, I would like to point out Kim's question from earlier, could you please take a look and let us know the answer? Thank you in advance! The question was as follows...

    In this case there is a vendorunitcost field on the WPitem record. That value could be added to the display on WO's to reduce confusion. The next question is does that value get used on the PR? If its using the base currency unit cost and not the vendors then that would be a bug. Can you confirm?
