Capacity Ledger - Understanding Calculation

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Kim2022 98

Have a finished production order with output quantity of 15000 pcs

The product cost was unexpectedly low and viewing the capacity ledger entry, the quantity shows 9000 while the output quantity is 15000.   

The overhead cost calculated based on the 9000.

Does anyone know what the difference in these two columns would represent?

I have the same question (0)

    What would make the quantity different from the output quantity on a work center calculation

    Hello,

    Maybe this explains it better, at least related to output quantity:
