Project COGS Distribution (tipcs3110m000)

If the COGS and Revenues restricted to Financial Company of PCS Project in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session is cleared, the general COGS of a PCS project can be posted on several departments, in more than one financial company.

Use this session to view or specify the percentage of general COGS that is posted on a specific department, for example, on a sales office, service department, or warehouse.

You can use the COGS Distribution based on field in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session and the Project Details (tipcs2130m000) session to choose whether you want to enter the COGS distribution manually in this session, or that LN calculates the COGS distribution. Note that the setting of the COGS Distribution based on field in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session is copied to the Project Details (tipcs2130m000) session. You can still change the setting in the Project Details (tipcs2130m000) session.

  • If you select Manual in the COGS Distribution based on field, you must enter a percentage in the PCS COGS Percentage field to indicate the COGS percentage that is posted on a specific department. In case of interim revenue recognition, specify the percentage in the Interim COGS Percentage field.
  • If you select Calculated in the COGS Distribution based on field, LN calculates the COGS percentages that are posted on specific departments, based on the revenue generated by sales orders, service orders, and/or warehouse orders. You can view the percentages in the PCS COGS Percentage field and the Interim COGS Percentage field.

If the sum of the percentages does not add up to 100%, the remaining general COGS is posted on calculation office of the PCS project.

The general COGS is posted on the calculation office of the PCS project instead of on the departments in the following cases:

  • If you select Manual in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session, and you do not enter percentages in this session.
  • If the COGS and Revenues restricted to Financial Company of PCS Project check box in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session is selected.
Note

The general PCS results are always posted on the PCS calculation office, because they are assumed to be always related to the PCS calculation office.

 

Project

A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated 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.

Calculation Office

A work center that determines the enterprise unit for a project or production order and that has an administrative function.

For production orders, operations can be carried out in the calculation office, because the calculation office can act as a regular work center.
