RE: Job Costing ?

["Sutton, Gary" <Gary.Sutton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Look at the Job accounting application.  Another way would be to create the
MO per the CO and the system will maintain a link for reporting.  The
Browser application CSM will allow a MO to be released for each item on the
CO.  Another way would be to enter the CO and then create an MO for each
manufactured item and manually put the CO number in the "Customer Job"
number field in the Manufacturing order master.  This would support
reporting by project (Customer CO Number, all cost creation, updating and
tracking would be handled by the normal MAPICS function.

Subject: Job Costing ?


Is anyone using the MAPICS costing system as a job costing system?

We need to find a better way to track our costing, and a job costing system
seems to be preferred. Cost are dependent on the number of items ordered and
manufactured in the same MO.  The standard of the item will change.

We do not want to involve CSR's in any of these processes, they just enter
the order.

Finished good items are not the problem, it is those item that are made to
order.
