From this page, you can drill down to the Part Cost page and take actions to resolve the
problem.
The costing tasks are categorized by the Cost Message Log Source. There are four types, each with a predefined set
of messages:
Calculate Part Cost
- No Supplier Invoice Data - Generated when there is no supplier invoice data for the primary
supplier and the company connected to the site. This message is generated only for purchased parts connected to a
Planned Purchase Cost Template or a Multi-site Cost Template.
- Latest Valid Structure Used - Generated when the system cannot get a valid structure
revision. Instead, the previous Plannable or Buildable structure revision is used. This is valid for top parts
only.
- Latest Valid Routing Used - Generated when the system cannot get a valid routing revision.
Instead, the previous Plannable or Buildable routing revision is used.
- No Buildable/Plannable Structure Revision Found - Generated when no structure revision is
found for a top part.

connected to a Cost Template with use cost distribution enabled, but no product structure alternate with use cost
distribution has been defined.

with use cost distribution enabled, but Produced Part Cost Base has not been defined.
- Zero Cost detected for Use Cost Distribution - This cost information is generated for a
produced part linked to a Cost Template with cost distribution enabled. In this branch of the BOM, the produced
part has no associated cost. Fore more details about which branch of the BOM this applies to, refer to the top
part and the parent part number.
Copy Costs to Cost Set One
- Part not copied. Check calculation dates - Generated when a component has been calculated
and copied into cost set 1 at a later date in another tree compared to this node. The message indicates that this
component node did not update the Part Cost, cost set 1 amounts.
- Part copied from latest calculation found in another tree - Generated when a
component/subassembly in a tree has a later calculation date than the top part. System will also move this
subassembly and its components to cost set 1.
