    Hi

    How the system calculates costing methods is a pretty complex question, it also changes with the adjust cost item entries batch job

    Your best bet is to read through the costing whitepaper, it is for version 5 but will give you the background, you can find it here

    Hi

    Been a while since i last used the worksheet but the steps are basically:

    Suggest Item standard cost - Purchased materials

    Suggest Machine & Work Centers

    Update costs on these if required

    Suggest item standard cost - Manufactured items

    Roll up standard cost

    Implement cost changes

    That will then give the correct calculated cost, when i was first working with this i created a new FG item and setup in a test system, then manually added just those to the worksheet so that i could play with the numbers and figure it all out, i would suggest that you do the same as it helps with getting it all to make sense

    Cheers

    You dint mention qty consumption in BOM detail., first need to fill qty then you can get finished product cost.

    Hi

    You need to first run the adjust cost item entries to ensure that your average cost is up to date, then use the standard cost worksheet to have the system create your standard costs on the finished goods item

    You should not fill anything in manually the system will calculate an update the FG item using the worksheet
