Cost Estimate
Cost estimates are used to create estimates of the price of manufactured and assembled products. Data is taken from the estimated (normative) direct material and work costs listed in the basic product specifications.
Cost estimates reveal the cost structure of all specification levels, expressed as the total cost of material and labor expended for the item.
Cost estimates can be limited to only certain types of items or materials, making it possible to create partial costing for products that contain only certain types of materials or work. Material and labor costs can be determined using a number of metrics when creating cost estimates, or settings from defined business events in manufacturing can be summarized. A number of price simulations are also available. An item’s detailed cost estimate provides an overview of manufacturing costs broken down into all levels of the item’s specification.
Cost Analysis
Cost analyses run in the background of the module for tracking work orders in production; they provide overviews of the actual production costs of the items in work orders. These actual costs stemming from materials and labor pertain to items when they are received at the warehouse from work orders. The amount and calculation method for costs depend on the settings for work order document types. A number of detailed and summary cost analyses are available.
The program also offers analyses of work orders and documentation linked to work orders. Analyses provide overviews of work order status, issue and receiving slip statuses, unfinished manufacturing, and linked document reports. All analyses can be performed by combining a number of different metrics.
