Re: Standard cost Question

We do this a lot. I have a template in Excel in which we have all the
new costs, then this is loaded into the offline file IMDSKTB via a
utility (XL400 from Symtrax, basically an extraction tool, but it can be
used to send data to the 400 from Excel at the click of a button!).
We then use standard PDM offline load, in change mode, to update all the
costs.
Typically we update the current costs near the year end, do cost
comparisons between current and standard, and an inventory valuation
comparison, then when all is OK roll current to standard.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Standard cost Question

Has anyone done anything to create an "Offline Load" to populate Current
or standard cost?  The idea being have all of the required Costs in
something like an Excel Spreadsheet and be able to upload it into
MAPICS.
