As others have explained, the CIC file holds facility specific cost, and the IIM
file holds global cost.  Global actual cost is calculated as a weighted average
or last cost for all the facilities.  It is updated by ACP500 (more specifically
ACP504) and the CST900 job stream.  Standard global cost can only be created by
a global Bill-of-Materials and router while executing Load Standards from
Routings (CST600) and Cost Rollup (CST500) for a blank facility.  Using the
facility transfer program (CST940) to populate the global cost (facility 00) may
be a possible alternative to global routings and bill-of-materials, but you
would have to check to see if such a transfer would update the IIM file.

The CMF file is the place to obtain the most accurate cost information.  There
have been problems with the CIC file not being updated properly with cost
information.  In the past, it's been a problem that was placed on the back
burner since BPCS primarily used the CMF file for costing purposes.
