Calculate Cost for Single Part, One Level

Explanation

This activity can be used to calculate costs for one level for an inventory part. 
Note:
You cannot perform a cost calculation for cost set 1.This optional task is to be performed by a system administrator or equivalent person. 

When calculating costs, the costs set-up throughout the system are gathered and attributed to the correct part. When calculating the part costs for a cost set, only the level cost for the selected part is calculated. Total level cost does not include accumulated component material costs. No costs for any underlying structure will be calculated. However, already calculated costs of the components one level below, will be rolled up for one level.

This activity can be performed through One Level Part Cost Calculation in Part Cost and Part Costs windows.

If by-products exist, the cost of the primary product is calculated in one of the following ways. Either the costs of the by-products are subtracted from the calculated costs to determine the cost of the primary product, or the cost of the primary product is determined using by-product cost distribution. If you use by-product cost distribution, then the by-product cost distribution factors for each of the by-products identify how much of the calculated costs are subtracted. The remaining costs are used for the cost of the primary product.

If material overheads are defined in part overheads, the material overhead is added to to the parent level in the cost structure. When material and general overheads are connected to a part, and the part cost record has a template which consists of a cost bucket that is connected to a cost element which uses cost element source 501 or 502, during cost calculations for a site or part or cost set, the system fetches costs using different overhead units as follows:

Procedure

To perform this activity in the One Level Part Cost Calculation window, follow these steps:

  1. Open the One Level Part Cost Calculation window.
  2. In the Site field, click List and select the site for which you want to perform the cost calculation.
  3. In the Part No field, click List and select the part for which the calculation should be performed. 
  4. In the Cost Set field, click List and select the cost set for which you want to perform the cost calculation.
  5. To include the alternative of structure and routing, click List in the Struct. Alt. and Rout. Alt. fields and select the alternatives.
  6. In the Stop Roll list, click either Not Stop Cost Rollup or Stop Cost Rollup.
  7. If serial numbers are used, click List in the Effective Serial No field and select the serial part for which the calculation should be performed. If serial numbers are not used, you can specify the date on which the structure and routing should be valid in the Effective Date field.
  8. Click OK

To perform this activity in the Part Cost or Part Costs window, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Part Cost or Part Costs window.
  2. Select the part for which you want to perform the cost calculation.
  3. Right-click and then click Cost Calculations/One Level Part Cost Calculation. The values from the selected part will be shown in the One Level Part Cost Calculation dialog box.
  4. Click OK.
