I am struggling to find resources online on this topic at this scale. We're a standard cost environment, we have our cost sheets all set up and we've been on the ERP system for 5 years. And we're trying to re-cost everything in our system up all of the bill of materials
I understand cost versions and making a new version/running a calculation but I am having a hard time finding resources on a few questions:
1) How do we do a full cost roll where we take the increases to components into account, and roll those costs up all of our BOM trees to re-cost all the assemblies where those items are used?
My current thought process is to do a cost roll on purchased parts, and then do a cost roll on all the assemblies. But it just doesnt seem to work that way. Specifically the "and then do a cost roll on all the assemblies"
2) For purchased parts, how does the fallback work? I have a component that has a current active price of 9.31. I make a new PO for 25.31 and when I have "fallback" = "active", it keeps bringing in the 9.31 as the calculated pending price, stating "Item price was supplied by version...". If I have fallback = None, I get the 25.31 because I've updated this field:
3) This where used feature only looks at one level up, it seems. So it's like you need it to automatically run it repeatedly until all items have been recosted up the Bill of Materials. Why would you only want to update one level up?
