Analyze Shop Order Costs

Explanation

This activity is used to analyze shop order costs. This ensures that the costs generated from the manufacturing process can be followed up and compared against the planned cost. When a shop order is created, the system automatically calculates the costs, based on the order-specific data.

Note: When a shop order is in the Planned status or Released status, the part cost buckets added on the Cost Template in Cost Set One page can be updated by clicking Calculate Order Cost on the Shop Order Costs page. The order cost estimates will not be automatically calculated after an order has reached the Started status, but it is possible to calculate the order cost estimates for an order in the Started status via the Shop Order page, by clicking Costing then Calculate Order Estimated Cost.

Use the Shop Orders Costs page to get a summarized overview for the costs per shop order.
