Costs Subtask

Use the Costs subtask to view all total and relieved costs associated with the manufacturing order.

The fields in this subtask display inventory cost element and lower level cost information for the selected transaction line. These costs are always calculated based on the Cost Type, and in most cases, costs are pulled from the L (Last) cost type on the Manage Item Costs or Manage Project Item Costs screens in Product Definition. For example, after you receive a part on the Enter Miscellaneous Inventory Receipts screen in Costpoint Receiving, the cost elements entered for the received part update the last cost type and are used when calculating the total material, labor, subcontract, and miscellaneous costs for the MO. This subtask is not available if Cost Suppression is in effect (that is, the Suppress Cost check box is selected in the table window on the Manage Users screen in Costpoint System Administration).

Contents

Field Description
Manufacturing Order ID

This column displays the manufacturing order ID from the main screen.

MO Status

This column displays the MO Status as Planned, Firm Planned, Released, In-Shop, Completed, or Closed.

Build Part

This field displays the part ID for which the MO was created.

Rev

This field displays the revision ID for the build part.

Build Quantity

This field displays the quantity of the part being built with this MO.

MO Total Costs

The cost amounts in this group box display all total costs associated with the MO once the status is Completed for all component, subassembly, and build part transactions. Once the issue ID is assigned to the MO on the Enter Manufacturing Order Issues screen, these costs are pulled from the inventory transaction for the part.

Field Description
Material (Direct)

This field displays the direct material total cost, which includes the sum of all direct MO header material cost elements and lower level material cost amounts for the MO.

Labor (Direct)

This field displays the direct labor total cost, which includes the sum of all direct MO header lower-level labor cost amounts and the labor cost amount for any timesheet lines charged to the MO.

Subcontract (Direct)

This field displays the direct subcontract total cost, which includes the sum of all direct MO header subcontract cost elements and lower-level subcontract cost amounts for the MO.

Misc 1 (Direct)

This field displays the direct miscellaneous 1 total cost, which includes the sum of all direct MO header miscellaneous 1 cost elements, lower level miscellaneous 1 cost amounts, and the miscellaneous cost amount for any timesheet lines charged to the MO.

Misc 2 (Direct)

This field displays the direct miscellaneous 2 total cost, which includes the sum of all direct MO header miscellaneous 2 cost elements, lower level miscellaneous 2 cost amounts, and the miscellaneous cost amount for any timesheet lines charged to the MO.

Total (Direct)

This field displays the direct total cost, which is the sum of all direct material, labor, subcontract, miscellaneous 1, and miscellaneous 2 cost amounts.

Hours

This field displays the total number of labor hours spent on this MO. The system calculates the value in this field by adding together all hours charged to the MO (that is, all timesheet lines), including all levels of labor and subcontract hours.

Note: The following fields display the inventory burden cost amounts, if applicable, for the MO. The system calculates inventory burden cost amounts by multiplying direct costs by the appropriate burden rate for the inventory cost element account/org. Additional burden amounts may come from lower level components issued to an assembly. Establish burden rate default settings and raw material burden settings on the Configure Inventory Accounts screen in Costpoint Inventory. Inventory burden rates are calculated by the Compute Inventory Burden Rates screen in Costpoint Cost and Revenue Processing (in the Projects folder). For additional details regarding the calculation of inventory burden rates, please refer to Inventory Special Topic IN-4, "Applying Burden Rates to Inventory".
Material (Burden)

This field displays the burden material cost. The system calculates the value in this field in accordance with the Raw Material Burdening setting on the Configure Inventory Accounts screen. For each fiscal year, the system multiplies the MO's direct material cost for that fiscal year by that year's WIP material account/org burden rate. The system then sums the resulting product with all the other years' material burden products for that MO, and adds the MO's lower-level material burden cost amount to the sum.

Labor (Burden)

This field displays the burden labor cost. For each timesheet line that is charged to an MO for a period in a fiscal year, the system sums the labor cost amount and multiplies the result by the MO's WIP labor account/org burden rate for that year. The program then sums the resulting product with all the other years' labor burden products for that MO and adds the MO's lower-level labor burden cost amount to the sum.

Subcontract (Burden)

This field displays the burden subcontract cost. For each fiscal year, the system multiplies the direct subcontract cost for that fiscal year and MO by the MO's WIP subcontract account/org burden rate for that year. The program then sums the resulting product with all the other years' subcontract burden products for that MO and adds the MO's lower-level subcontract burden cost amount to the sum.

Misc 1 (Burden)

This field displays the burden miscellaneous 1 cost. For each fiscal year, the system sums the direct Misc 1 cost for that fiscal year and MO with the sum of all labor cost amounts (timesheet lines) that were charged to the MO for the fiscal year. The system multiplies the total by that MO's WIP Misc 1 account/org burden rate for the year. The program then sums the resulting product with all the other years' Misc 1 burden products for that MO and adds the MO's lower-level Misc 1 burden cost amount to the sum.

Misc 2 (Burden)

This field displays the burden miscellaneous 2 cost. For each fiscal year, the system sums the direct Misc 2 cost for that fiscal year and MO with the sum of all labor cost amounts (timesheet lines) that were charged to the MO for the fiscal year. The system multiplies the total by that MO's WIP Misc 2 account/org burden rate for the year. The program then sums the resulting product with all the other years' Misc 2 burden products for that MO and adds the MO's lower-level Misc 2 burden cost amount to the sum.

Total (Burden) This field displays the total burden cost, which is the sum of all burden material, labor, subcontract, miscellaneous 1, and miscellaneous 2 cost amounts.
