Changes to Production Unit Cost

Previously production unit cost has been calculated as the difference between the standard cost of the main product(s) and the standard costs of ingredients/materials. Production unit cost is now retrieved from a ROUTING_RESOURCE_ALT.production_unit_cost new column in SCV.

The hourly cost on resources is used for the actual production cost. The production unit cost is mainly used as a differentiator between alternative processes to produce the same product and can be specified manually in SCV using the extension datasheets.

This interface service has been updated:

  • SPLS - SCV -Import Production Measures
Note: This feature is enabled after appending the base template (base.zip) for this version. You are not required a new role or privilege access to use this feature.

Action required prior to activation:

Review the changes to the SP_V_* views in the Release Notes. If necessary, override the SCO interface definitions to use the old value from the production_unit_cost_old column. When a new production unit cost value is required, either the column must be populated in Inbox during import from ERP or must be manually maintained as user data.
