Re: Facility to Global Costing

What might cause you not to go to to global costing is that if the BOM's, 
routings, work center rates across your 2 facilities are at all different in 
fit/form or function then you'd loose the visibility in the differences.
 
When your cost accounting department (at fiscal year end) changes any of the 
components that establish the standard costs they might be specific to each 
individual facility.
 
Remember that the BOM's and routings are still Facility specific so you could 
not have global BOM's or routings.  I have found that maintaining facility 
costs is a truer measure of the business.

I have two facilities and am doing costing by facility. My costs for an item 
are basically the same in both facilities. What issues would prevent me from 
changing to global costs?

I am running LX Version of BPCS
