When you create a Drop Ship PO and then generate the SO from the PO, the GL COGS account will be updated from the PO Receipt of Invoice and not from SO Invoice processing. The SO Gross Profit Report pulls the COGS for the Drop Ship lines from the Inventory Costing which is not accurate. It should either be zero or pull the COGS from the PO Receipt of Invoice posting.

There should be additional bi-directional flow. A PO Unit Cost field added to SO Detail can be updated when the PO Unit Cost is updated. An new SO Option to use this PO Unit Cost, instead of the present misleading Standard Cost, in the GP Journal, Cost files, Commission files, AR Invoice History, and GL Entry, would be a significant improvement. We have a new client who does 75% of their revenue via Drop Ship. None of the standard reporting is accurate or useful. We've had to customize extensively.
