Manufacturing Order misc. charges

Has anyone created a process to add misc. charges from a Purchase Order
to a Manufacturing Order at the time the P.O. item is received, such as
creating a batch similar to the current function that happens at invoice
time? This would in effect "accrue" the value onto the M.O. at P.O.
price.



Now the bigger question. If anyone has done this, how do you handle the
process when the A/P invoice is posted? Create a variance transaction
out of the current MCAP to post additional value if the invoice price is
different from the P.O. price, leaving zero if the same? Just reverse
the accrual in the G/L account and depend on the A/P entry person to
record a variance to a different account, (adding a charge line in IFM)?



We are at release 7 with IFM installed.
