Magento - Show product cost in backend

Is there any way of showing to product cost in magento´s order view (backend)? So far I have not found an extension that does this (maybe you will :) ), so I guess I will have to do it myself.

What would be an efficient way of doing this? Maybe by overwriting the admin template? Or maybe there is a setting for this I just wasn't able to find.

Thanks in advance :)

At first you can create attribute for product, set attribute config in product. Well, you can get this attribute by Magento object. Example:

$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
echo $product->getAttributeName();

I had same issue. Then I have checked "cost" attribute and found that this attribute is assigned to some types of products. So I changed it for all product types.

This works for me. Hope this works for you.

did it the quick way:

  <?php 
        if ($children = $_item->getChildrenItems())
        {
            $children = $_item->getChildrenItems();
            $ProductId = $children[0]->getProductId();
        } 
        else 
        {
            $ProductId = $_item->getProductId();
        } 
  ?>

To do this, edit two templates from the adminhtml section. In sales/order/view/items.phtml, add a new <col> and <th> for your column. Then, in sales/order/view/items/renderer/default.phtml, add the corresponding <td> for that field. Use something like this to get the cost:

<td><?php print Mage::getModel("catalog/product")->load($_item->getProductId())->getCost(); ?></td>

Hope that helps!

Thanks, Joe
