DOP Costing
DOP costing enabled you to analyze and follow up the costs related to a DOP structure. DOP costs can be
calculated for a site, all user allowed sites, or for a specific DOP structure. In addition, it is possible to
execute the batch process regularly by scheduling the calculation. If you want to monitor cost performance, you get
the most correct graph if the actual cost is calculated every work day for the DOP structure. DOP order costs based
on cost buckets in cost set one, could be updated by clicking Calculate DOP Cost on the DOP Order
Costs page that is accessed by clicking DOP Order Cost on the DOP
Order page.
There are three different types of costs; Standard, Estimated and Actual. Results of DOP cost calculation can be
seen on the DOP Order Costs page. Moreover, the value of each cost type can be compared.
Standard Cost
The standard cost represents the costs that are normally booked to a DOP order with the given material and
operations.
- DOP orders for non-configured purchased parts (regardless of Create Pegged setting) and manufactured
parts with Create Pegged set to No Pegged Orders fetches the costs from the part cost, cost set
1.
- DOP orders for configured purchased parts with Inventory Part Cost Level set to Cost per
Configuration primarily fetches the cost using the configuration ID, secondarily from the part cost, costs
set 1.
- DOP orders for manufactured parts with Create Pegged set to Pegged Orders uses the DOP order
operations when calculating manufacturing costs. If the pegged manufactured part is at a leaf node of a DOP
structure, its material cost is fetched from its components, using part cost, cost set 1.
Estimated Cost
Estimated cost represents the costs that are expected to be booked to a DOP order given the material and
operations configuration of its supply order.
- DOP orders for manufactured parts with Create Pegged set to Pegged Orders primarily fetches the
costs from the estimated costs from its pegged shop order. Costs for any remaining quantity not supplied from a
pegged shop order is calculated similar as the standard cost. When a shop order is supplying multiple DOP orders,
the estimated shop order costs are distributed to the DOP orders based on the quantity it supplies each DOP order
with.
- Other DOP orders fetches the estimated costs similar as the standard costs.
Actual Cost
The actual cost represents the costs actually associated with the supply of a DOP order.
- DOP orders supplied from a purchase order fetches the actual purchase costs from the purchase order. If the
purchase order line is invoiced then system uses invoiced price, otherwise it takes the price on the purchase
order line.
- DOP orders supplied from a shop order fetches the actual manufacturing costs from the shop order plus the
costs of non-DOP supplied material.
- DOP orders netted from inventory fetches the standard cost of the parts.
When a shop/purchase order is supplying multiple DOP orders, the actual costs are distributed to the DOP orders
based on the quantity complete reported to each DOP order. If no quantity has been reported as complete, the
distribution will be based on the expected supply quantity to each DOP order.
