CA20: Order Costing for Manufacturing Orders

When applied

Account entries are created when the 'Order costing' check box is selected in 'Internal Account Entry. Create' (CAS950). The reported cost is then displayed together with the precalculated product cost in 'Order Costing. Display' (CAS310)310) and its subprograms.

Note: The manufacturing order to follow up must be displayed as released in (CAS310). The release can be done in one of the following ways:
  • You select the 'Released for order costing' check box in (CAS310) for a single order.
  • You release a batch of orders in 'Order Costing. Release' (CAS320).
  • Manufacturing orders are automatically released when completed if the 'Automatic release for order costing' check box is selected for the manufacturing order type in 'Manufacturing Order Type. Open' (PMS120/F).
