Setting a Product cost in FO that flow to a product in CE - not using weighted, average, etc. We want a flat set cost that can be changed when needed

Hello,

 We are a Service business and use products on our WO in D365 Field Service. When they created our Service Products in D365 FO they set them up with an Item Model Group that uses average costing method and it has created a huge inventory issue. Is it possible to create a an Item Model Group with a costing method that allows a set cost in FO by Product or even 0, and then when that same product is used on a WO in Field Service, it is costed at that amount every time, posts to the project at that cost, etc? Then can that be managed and that cost be updated in FO annually or as needed? 

I am new to the SCM side of the D365 platform and we need to separate our Products from our production/manufacturing group but aren't sure how to accomplish what we need. 

Any help would be appreciated

    Hi Cindy,

    I'm not familiar with Field Service. I wonder how the item is procured. Which application is responsible for the procurement? What is this item about? Is it always physically the same item or do you have a dummy item number to have a single item number for multiple purposes?

    What variation do you have in the prices that it is important to have a cost per transaction?

    If you need a cost per transaction, you can consider using a tracking dimension group where the batch number will be enabled including tracking of the financial cost.
