MFG Costing Question

[ame]

Hi ya' all... I had a question relating to MFG Costing. I have a client on
XE SP 20 (soon to be SP21) Update 6... they have five manufacturing
facilities. Some of the facilities make intermediaries for other ones...
when a cost is rolled up in one branch/plant ... is it possible to pass that
new cost to the other branch/plant? Considering that pricing/cost is
branch/plant specific?

For example... Part 1234 has an intermediary part number A... Part A is made
in NY. Part 1234 is made in Chicago. If NY has to re-roll it's costing do
to a cost update... can the new Cost (because Chicago is buying from NY),
but rolled into the Chicago cost of Part 1234 without "manual intervention"?

This customer is currently not on MRP, but we hope to be this year. Let me
know. thanks, Bobby

Hi Bobby,
I'm not a manufacturing buff, but we've just crossed the same bridge on our implementation, and I've collected some information from our manufacturing people, so hopefully this will help! This is their process document:

Run R30812 Simulate Cost in MFG Br/Pl Cost Method 07

Run R30890 Copy Cost Components from MFG Br/Pl to Consuming Br/Pl (item set up as a purchased item) and change from 07 to 05 Cost Method.

Run R30835 Frozen Update on Comsuming Br/Pl - 05 Cost Method
