Assembly order costingCosting is a crucial aspect of the Assembly Control (ASC) module. The manner in which costing is performed depends partially on how you define your cost components. Other aspects of costing that are described here are:
Note The aspects of financial costing that are described here have no relation to the theoretical, mathemetical costs associated with line sequencing. Cost components There are three types of cost components:
Cost components can be posted on an aggregated level, detailed level, or on a combination of aggregated and detailed level. When costs are posted on an aggregated level, all the costs for a cost component are combined into one sum, such as all the individual material costs being added into a single sum. To post cost components at a detailed level, you must define cost component charts. Detailed cost components result in a price structure in which all costs have been broken down. Transaction-processing methods The Assembly Control module is intended for use by companies that produce many variants of complex products in a flow-assembly line. Assembly Control can also be used for low-volume assembly if you select Order Based transaction processing. Select your transaction-processing method in the Transaction Processing field in the Assembly Control Parameters (tiasc0100m000) session. Use Line Station Based transaction processing when you do not need to trace back to the original assembly order. Costs are posted to the assembly line. Results are calculated by period by assembly line. Use Order Based transaction processing when you want your costing performed on the basis of individual assembly orders. Costs are posted by order by assembly line. Results are calculated by order by assembly line. WIP transfers WIP transfers consist of:
You can select whether you want these processes to occur automatically, semiautomatically, or manually. Calculation of financial results When you close an assembly line with the Close Assembly Lines (tiasc7220m000) session, the production results of the line are calculated. All the line station orders must have the status Closed. The financial results are the WIP transactions (which are estimated costs) minus the actual costs.
