Outside Operations Cost Accounting, // Transaction

        We are on BPCS version 8.0

        When we receive against a PO for an outside operation on a shop
order, we enter a // transaction, which updates the PO and the shop
order.

        The standard cost of the outside operation is stored in CMF Cost
bucket 4, for the part being manufactured.

        Since the PR will remove the outside processing cost along with
all the material, labor and overhead, we need to get the cost of the O/P
into WIP when it happens.

        Our problem is - how do we get the standard cost of that outside
operation recorded in the // transaction so that we can enter it into
the account for WIP?
