Activating standard cost by enterprise unit for multisite

To use the functionality for multisite, the value of the Standard Cost by Enterprise Unit field must be Active in the Multisite Concepts Activation (tcemm4600m000) workbench session.

If this parameter is Active, the standard cost calculation for an item is performed by enterprise unit instead of by logistic company.

To change the status from Inactive to Active, complete these steps:

Step 1. Calculation Office Setup

Before you can set the status to In Preparation, a default calculation office must be linked to each production department.

This is done as follows:

  1. Click Calculation Office Setup in the Multisite Concepts Activation (tcemm4600m000) workbench session.
  2. In the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session, set the Calculation Office defined in field from Default Production Order Data to Prepare for Production Department.
  3. Assign a default calculation office to each production department.
  4. In the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session, set the Calculation Office defined in field to Production Department.
Step 2. In Preparation

Click In Preparation in the Standard Cost by Enterprise Unit tab of the Multisite Concepts Activation (tcemm4600m000) workbench session. Consequently, the status changes from Inactive to In Preparation.

Step 3. Generate Interim Item Costing Data

Generate item costing (default) data that includes the enterprise unit for an item or a range of items, in the Cost Calculation by Enterprise Units - Generate Migration Table (ticpr0220m000) session. The costing data is generated based on the warehouse specified in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session. The enterprise unit is also retrieved from this warehouse.

After running the Cost Calculation by Enterprise Units - Generate Migration Table (ticpr0220m000) session, temporary item costing data is generated in the Standard Costs by Enterprise Unit - Conversion data (ticpr0120m000) session. For an item, multiple records of item costing data can be generated by enterprise unit.

Step 4. Maintain Interim Item Costing Data

View and modify the generated temporary item costing (default) data in the Standard Costs by Enterprise Unit - Conversion data (ticpr0120m000) session. You can also specify temporary item costing data in this session.

Step 5. Upgrade Item Costing Data

Upgrade the costing (default) data from the company level to the enterprise unit level for an item or a range of items in the Cost Calculation by Enterprise Units-Upgrade (ticpr0220m100) session. You can skip the unused items.

After running the Cost Calculation by Enterprise Units-Upgrade (ticpr0220m100) session, the temporary item costing data by enterprise unit is upgraded to actual item costing data by enterprise unit in the Item - Costing (ticpr0107m000) or Item - Costing Defaults (ticpr0108m000) sessions.

Note:

  • If an item cannot be upgraded, for example, on account of data inconsistencies, you can manually remove this item from the Standard Costs by Enterprise Unit - Conversion data (ticpr0120m000) session. After the Standard Cost by Enterprise Unit concept is set to Active in the Multisite Concepts Activation (tcemm4600m000) workbench session, you can create the item manually in the Item - Costing (ticpr0107m100) or Item - Costing Defaults (ticpr0108m000) sessions.
  • As soon as the first item is upgraded, the value of the Standard Cost by Enterprise Unit parameter in the Multisite Concepts Activation (tcemm4600m000) session already changes to Active.
Step 6. Calculate Standard Costs by Enterprise Unit

Calculate the standard cost by enterprise unit for the upgraded items in the Calculate Standard Cost (ticpr2210m000) session.

You can view the calculated standard cost for an item and enterprise unit in the related sessions, such as Item - Costing (ticpr0107m000), Item Standard Costs (ticpr3601m000), and Item - Standard Cost (ticpr3500m000).

Step 7. Delete temporary costing data

To delete the temporary costing data from the Standard Costs by Enterprise Unit - Conversion data (ticpr0120m000) session, use the Cost Calculation by Enterprise Units - Delete Migration Table (ticpr0220m200) session.

Note: Before deletion, verify if items exist that are still to be upgraded. To verify, check the value of the Standard Costs at Level field in the Items (tcibd0501m000) and Item Defaults (tcibd0102m000) sessions, which can be Company or Enterprise Unit.
