Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000)

Use this session to list and define subcontracting rates by price-calculation code, subcontractor, and task. If you enter an item in the Parent item field, you can define item-specific rates. Subcontracting rates are rates for subcontracted operations, and are used to calculate subcontracting operation costs.

Performance aspects

The settings in this session could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Cost component setup

 

Project
A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated by a customer order for items having a To Order order policy. The purpose of a project is to plan and coordinate the production of these items.

For a standard-to-order production, the project is only used to link the item with the customer order. Otherwise, a project can include:

  • Customized item data (BOMs and routings)
  • Project planning (activity planning)

A budget is a special type of project. A budget is used to plan and estimate, not to carry out production.

Price Calc. Code
A specification of how a cost price, valuation price, or sales price is calculated. The code stores specific cost calculation data.

The price calculation code that is defined in the Cost Price Calculation (CPR) Parameters determines the standard cost price. Other price calculation codes are used for simulation purposes. The price calculation code for customized items is stored by project.

Example
  • Specific operation rates
  • Subcontracting rates
  • Simulated purchase prices
  • Surcharges
Parent item
The end item on the production order for which one or more operations can be subcontracted.
Subcontracting with Material Flow
If this check box is selected, subcontracting with material flow applies.
Subcontractor Independent
If this check box is selected, the specified rates are used to calculate operation costs for the subcontractor-independent operations and functions as fall back rates in case the subcontractor is known, but no rates are specified for that subcontractor.
Note

The subcontracted tasks needed for the production of the end item are not yet linked to a subcontractor, but the way subcontracting rates are calculated remains the same.

Subcontractor
A business partner that is hired to perform certain services, such as the execution of a part of a project or production order. The services are delivered via a purchase order.
Task
The task to which the subcontracting rate is linked.
Calculation Method for Subcontracting Costs
The method of calculating subcontracting costs.

Allowed values

Cost Component
The cost component must be of the Operation Costs type. This is the cost component on which the estimated subcontracting costs can be viewed in the cost-price calculations and production order costing.

Default value

LN retrieves the default value from the Cost Price Calculation Parameters (ticpr0100m000) session.

Subassembly
If this check box is selected, the component is used as a subassembly.

If you are subcontracting with material flow, you can optionally enter the item that is the result of a subcontracted operation. This item becomes the default value of the Subassembly field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

If you are subcontracting without material flow, you must enter an item of the Subcontracted Service type, defined in the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) details session. This item represents the subcontracted operations, and appears on the subcontracting purchase order.

Subc. Rate Multi Curr.
The subcontracting rate if you use an independent currency system.

The currency that is displayed as default, and the corresponding subcontracting rate are related to the currency system. The default currency is used in internal calculations. The other currency relates to the currency of the supplier and can be manually entered. This currency is used when generating a purchase order.
