This activity is used to view accumulated transactions to costs.
Transaction records are categorized according to the defined cost category (i.e., material, labor, purchase, machine, overhead, tools equipment, and other). One or more transactions may be connected to a cost line. Cost accumulation is performed when a complex assembly service contract is applied on a complex assembly work order, and is synchronized with sales accumulation to handle already transferred or edited sales lines.
Cost lines can be viewed by selecting a position part in the structure navigator in the Complex Assembly Work Order page, and then clicking the Cost Lines tab.
Cost lines can be viewed for a position part only or for the child positions as well. Enable the Aggregate option to view details for child positions as well. When this option is enabled, the amounts will be summarized including everything below the selected position part.
Note: If the ownership of a part is changed to Company Owned during disposition (via the Transfer Ownership option), the corresponding transaction record will not be considered when generating cost and sales lines for the complex assembly work order. An exception description is added to identify such transaction records. Invoicing of parts, where the ownership has changed from Customer Owned to Company Owned during the MRO flow, must be done manually.
As a result of this activity, transactions are accumulated to costs.
