1. Fields & Definitions
1.1. Selection Tab

Enter the percentage to use if the part material cost is different from the Weighted Average Price Value by Greater than or Equal to or if the assembly material cost is different from the Sum of the parts standard value by Greater than or Equal to     Or   Difference between Calculated and Current Greater or Equal to $ 
Example:  if there is a $2000.00 assembly in stock, and users apply the 1% criteria, a $19.00 difference won't be brought into the matrix to be checked.  On the other users enter 0%, then every single part will be included.  A Minimum dollar value has been added to the Standard Cost Adjustment screen that will be used to determine whether or not an item is included in the matrix.  If left blank then the percentage rules.  If value entered then it becomes the criteria for inclusion in the matrix.     

Check box if you "Do not want items listed with 0 inventory and no purchase history for the current year", then the standard cost will remain unchanged

Check this box if you want to  "Allow user to enter in the Weighted Average Variable".  Once this has been checked the users can then enter in the number of the most recent Purchase Orders they wish to have included in the Weighted Average Calculation. This give the user the option to eliminate the Quick Turn buys that may throw the calculations off.  

User also has the option to select the part number range , class, or type, on which part(s) to process.  This will complete the adjustment process faster and user will be able to maintain more accurate records and also allow the users the ability to narrow the resulting filter of the Buy parts.  NOTE:  The Part Number range selection is available for only BUY parts. ManEx does not offer it for MAKE parts, because the system needs to roll ALL sub assemblies up to determine the top level costs. However, in the modifications tab, it is possible to sort by part number or class, to make it easier for the user to find specific items of interest.
 
To roll up the Buy Parts, depress the Roll up BUY Parts button.  To roll up Make Parts, depress the Roll up MAKE Parts button.  To Level Make Parts depress the Level MAKE Parts button.
 
1.2. Modification Tab

Modifications tab field definitions

 
Check All - Use calc cost for all records  If this box is checked - the system only checks the record if the calcualted cost > 0.  If this box is checked at one level, this option will carry forward as checked when users move to the next levels.
Check All - Use calc cost for calc cost not zero if this box is checked - the system will check all records to use calculated cost no matter it's zero or not.  If this box is checked at one level, this option will carry forward as checked when users move to the next levels.

Part Number

The number the user has assigned to the part within the  ICM  module. 

Rev

The revision number assigned to the Part Number within the  ICM  module.

Class

The classification to which the part belongs. 

Type

The type within the classification to which the part number belongs.

Description

The description assigned to the Part Number within the  ICM  module.

Quantity

The quantity is the number of units currently owned. This excludes all un-purchased In-Stores Inventory. ( for explanation on In-Store Inventory See Purchasing Manual)  See Article #1240 for more detail on why the system will not allow user to enter in a fraction of a number, and an alternative.

Material Cost

This cost is defaulted in from the cost currently assigned to the part number through ICM or PO .

·Important Note - If accounting is installed: For all buy parts, the standard cost field must have data entered.  If this data is missing (or wrong), the Raw Materials Inventory and the Work In Process (WIP) will be incorrect for the accounting records.  All make parts which are not labor only (the customer brings you the kit and all you do is apply the labor), must have data entered in the standard cost field.  Additionally, the data entered in the standard cost field for the make part must equal the sum of the Bill of Materials components.(Please refer to Bill of Materials Reports – Bill of Material With Standard Cost.)   If the data is missing or wrong on a Make Part, the Work In Process, Cost of Goods Sold and Finished Goods Inventory will be wrong for the accounting records.  If the sum of the Bill of Materials components does not equal the standard cost per the Item Master, a configuration variance will generate.

New Material Cost

This represents the revised or up-dated Standard Cost.  This column is colored so users can easily differentiate between the old cost and new cost.

Use Calc

If this box is checked, the calculations determined in the Selection tab were applied to the cost.  This box will be automatically checked for phantom (not Make/Phantom) assemblies in the system at each cost roll up.

Calculated Cost

This column is the result of the calculations determined in the Selection tab as applied to the original Standard Cost.

Use Manual

If this box is checked, the new Standard Cost was manually typed in and was not determined by any thing in the Selection tab.

Manual Cost

This column is the result of the new standard cost being entered manually and the Use Manual box being checked.

By moving the arrows (at the bottom of the screen) to the right the following fields are also available

Labor 

The labor cost currently assigned to the part number.

New Labor

This represents the revised or up-dated Labor cost.  This column is colored so users can easily differentiate between the old cost and new cost.

Overhead  The overhead cost currently assigned to the part number. 
New Overhead  This represents the revised or up-dated Overhead cost. This column is colored so users can easily differentiate between the old cost and new cost.
Other Costs  The other costs currently assigned to the part number. 
New Other Costs  This represents the revised or up-dated other costs. This column is colored so users can easily differentiate between the old cost and new cost.
User Defined The user definded costs currently assigned to the part number. 
New User Defined This represents the revised or up-dated user defined costs. This column is colored so users can easily differentiate between the old cost and new cost.
 Delta

The column is the net change between the original Standard Cost and the New Standard Cost multiplied by the Quantity.

If this button is depressed the costs will roll up to all of the Inventory Tables plus the records required for accounting will be created for posting to the General Ledger. 

Note
: Users have to have special access in order for this button to be enabled.  This access is assigned through Security/User Rights. 
Date Run

This is the date of the run.

This button is used to recalculate the total change (Delta) column.

Total

This is the total of the column “Delta” (change).
