Title: STD cost for Type F
Post by Dave Miller on 10/09/06 at 07:54:13

Is there a way to set a standard cost (labor and material) for a product manufactured as a type "F" Finished Goods?

Only by way of a Bill of Materials, AFAIK.

You can experiment by changing the type to R and enter the Material Std Cost, then change it to L and enter Labor, and then change it back to R. I know that it will leave the Std Costs in there even though they aren't valid, but am not sure how/if they will get used for anything.

Are you referring to entering the labor as an item in the BOM?? Also - what is AFAIK???

I was referring to entering the Standard Cost for Labor on the item in question in IN-B, same as you would for material. As I said, the best way would be to use a BOM, which could include Labor as an item if you don't use routings.

Note if you do use routings that Standard Cost will be based on Lot Size if you have Setup Time included on the routing.

Thanks - I tried it that way and it seems to work ok for me ... AFAIK. Wow - I feel like an insider now ... using an acronym! Is there an acronym for "I'm too old to learn this new stuff"?
