The costings are always up-to-date and can be directly opened from the
individual data objects, for example the customer sales order or the work
order.
This tool is especially helpful in make-to-order production, on the one
hand to be able to display the current cost status and on the other hand
to be able to include a projection with regard to the expected costs for an
order, in the controlling, at an early stage. The determination of the
inventory value of the WIP is automatically linked to the simultaneous
costing.
3.10.3. Final costing
In abas ERP completed sales orders and work orders can be finally
calculated. The final costings can be displayed in consolidated form or in
detailed views.
When final costing is carried out, all types of procurements will be finally
calculated – both sales order related procurements and warehouse
procurements. Final costing can also be carried out for filed processes
and can be run simultaneously. Not yet incurred costs are determined
from the sales order preliminary costing.
Final costing is carried out using a cost collector which you can edit in
order to enter and correct individual costs. When an individual final
costing value has been entered, it will be taken into consideration by the
final costing. Additionally, a row and possible additional costs that are
initially unknown to the final costing can be included in the cost collector.
Here you can enter, for example, travel or freight costs, which you
already know will accrue but for which a document does not yet exist.
They will be adopted into the final costing as special costs.
In invoices and a financial entries costs can be allocated to several items,
reservations or work order suggestions via a cost allocator.
If the final costing collected all costs of a finished product, then the mixed
price of the finished product will be updated. This happens when the
respective work order suggestion is filed. This mixed price update is
documented in the stock movement journal. As long as not all the costs
of the work order suggestion are available and can be posted, the mixed
price will not be updated. The update will be automatically carried out by
final costing when all costs of the work order suggestion have been
posted. If the final costing should update the mixed price or not can be
determined via the field "Mixed price update" in the configuration data
record.
