Cost bucket 0

[THarteau@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,
     (V6.04, Apr Cum, Mixed mode)
     I know there has been discussion on cost bucket 0 not the sum of cost
buckets 1 - 99 in the past. When we have had this mismatch in the past, the
only way to fix it was a fix program to re-sync the buckets. Now something
strange has happened.
     In mid December, an item changed from purchased with an outside
operation, no BOM to purchased with an inside operation. After the cost
build, the cost looked like this:
           3        0            .24363             .00000
           3        1           7.06280             .00000
           3        3            .11074             .00000
           3        4            .13289             .00000
     There was no inventory for this item, so it didn't stand out in any
reports.
     Last week, we had a PO receipt for the item, and it received it at
.24363.  When the cost build ran on Sunday, the costs now look like this:
           3        0           7.30643             .00000
           3        1           7.06280             .00000
           3        3            .11074             .00000
           3        4            .13289             .00000
     Any ideas on why the cost build correctly calculated cost bucket 0
now, and not before? We do a cost build weekly, so it isn't the first build
that occurred. The only difference I can see is that now we have inventory
on hand.
Thanks for any ideas.
