| Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000)Subcontracting rates
are rates for subcontracted operations, and are used to calculate
subcontracting operation costs. 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. Performance aspects The settings in this session could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Cost component setup Project (PCS) 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 Calculation 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. Initial Hidden Subcontracting Rate Multi Currency 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. Task The task to which the
subcontracting rate is linked. Currency The default currency and the corresponding subcontracting
rate are related to the currency system that is used in internal calculations.
This currency relates to the currency of the supplier and can be entered
manually. This last one is used on generation of the purchase order. Cost Component A cost component is a user-defined category for the
classification of costs. Cost components have the following functions: - To break down an item's cost price, sales price, or valuation
price.
- To create a comparison between the estimated production order
costs and the actual production order costs.
- To calculate production variances.
- To view the distribution of your costs over the various cost
components in the Cost Accounting module.
Cost components can be of the following cost types: - Material Costs
- Operation Costs
- Surcharge on Material Costs
- Surcharge on Operation Costs
- WIP Transfer Costs
- General Costs
Note If you use Assembly Control (ASC), you cannot use cost components
of the General Costs type. 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. 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. Calculation Method for Subcontracting Costs The method of calculating subcontracting costs. Subcontracting Rate The costs for subcontracting the
subassembly. Note No subcontracting rate can be assigned to a
phantom. | |
