Standard Cost Calculation Parameters (ticpr0100m000)

Use this session to maintain the parameters of the Standard Cost Calculation (CPR) module.

 

Effective Date
The date and time that the parameters were changed. The parameters are valid up to the effective date of a more recent parameter setting. The current set has no effective date.
Description
The description of the parameter set. The default is the description of the previous parameter set, so to avoid confusion you must always delete this and add a new text.
Calculation Settings
Standard Cost Calculation Code
A specification of how a standard cost, valuation price, or sales price is calculated. The code stores specific cost calculation data.

The price calculation code that is defined in the Standard Cost Calculation Parameters (ticpr0100m000) session determines the standard cost. Other cost 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

Type of Operation Rates
This parameter indicates which type of operation rate determines the calculation of the standard cost.
Zero Component Standard Cost Allowed
If this check box is selected, standard cost calculation for an item is not stopped if one of the item's components has a standard cost that is 0 (zero).

If this check box is cleared, standard cost calculation for an item is stopped if one of the item's components has a standard cost that is 0 (zero).

Include Fixed Costs in Sales Price
Costs can be divided into two parts, the variable costs and the fixed costs. The variable costs will always be added to the sales price of an item. The fixed costs will only be added to the sales price if the Include Fixed Costs in Sales Price field is checked.
Note

This parameter does not have any influence on the standard cost, although you can see the difference between the variable and the fixed part of the standard cost.

Include Fixed Costs in Valuation Price
Costs can be divided into two parts, the variable costs and the fixed costs. The variable costs will always be added to the valuation price of an item. The fixed costs will only be added to the valuation price if the Include Fixed Costs in Valuation Price check box is selected.
Note
  • This parameter is only applicable if the valuation of the inventory is based on the standard cost (Fixed Transfer Pricing). If you use an actual valuation method, such as LIFO, FIFO, or MAUC, fixed costs as well as variable costs are included to valuate inventory, independent of the setting of this check box.
  • This parameter does not have any influence on the standard cost, although you can see the difference between the variable and the fixed part of the standard cost.

Include Surcharges of Shop Floor Warehouse in Valuation Price
If this check box is selected, the surcharges assigned to an item in the main warehouses are also included in the item's valuation price in the job shop warehouse. As a result, the issue price of the item from the main warehouse is the same as the receipt price for the item in the job shop warehouse. Consequently, no transfer results and production results will occur.

If this check box is cleared, only valuation prices are stored if surcharges are defined for the item in the warehouse. This means that when no surcharge is assigned to an item in the job shop warehouse, no valuation price will be present for the item in the job shop warehouse.

Note

If you select the Include Surcharges of Shop Floor Warehouse in Valuation Price check box for an item with a job shop warehouse and FTP as valuation method, you must first remove the following surcharges to calculate the valuation price correctly:

  • Surcharges on the item/job shop warehouse combination.
  • Surcharges on the item group/job shop warehouse combination.
Backdate Valuation Price Allowed
If this check box is selected, you can calculate and/or actualize valuation prices for a date that is in the past. The date in the past can be the Last Date of Previous Period or a Specific Date.

If this check box is cleared, you can only calculate and/or actualize valuation prices for the current date.

Calculating and actualizing valuation prices takes place in the following sessions:

  • Calculate Standard Cost (ticpr2210m000)
  • Actualize Standard Cost and Revalue Inventory (ticpr2220m000)
  • Calculate and Actualize Standard Cost and Revalue Inventory (ticpr2225m000), which is started from the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session)

This parameter also applies to the Calculate Standard Costs by Project (tipcs3250m000) session where valuation prices for customized items in PCS projects are calculated.

Note

If you want to use lower of cost or market value (LCMV), this check box must be selected.

Calculate and Actualize from Items - Costing Session Allowed
If this check box is selected, you can calculate and actualize an item's standard cost and valuation price directly from the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session.

To calculate and actualize an item's standard cost and valuation price, you can also use the Calculate Standard Cost (ticpr2210m000) session, regardless of the setting of this check box.

Number of Years to Retain Standard Cost History
The number of years that the standard cost must be retained in LN. The Archive/Delete Cost History (ticpr2230m000) session takes this number of years into account when removing standard cost history data.

A historical standard cost is used, for example, to carry through inventory transactions having an "old date", as can be the case during cycle counting, or when antedating in the Purchase Control module, the Sales Control module, or in Service. The historical standard cost is also used to determine the inventory value on a past date.
