Re: Rolling Purchase Price into Standard Unit Cost.

Weston

There is no XA facility to move Purchase Price to standard cost (or even current). You can do it with SQL and or a simple program.

However, this is one reason why I recommend that the current material costs not be entered into Purchase Price field, but rather into the material at this level under current costs. In this way you can not only roll real current costs to compare to standard, but you can also use the XA facility to move current to standard.

Note: if you do this, check your purchasing control file to find out where the default price for an item comes from when creating a PO. It may be pointing to Purchase Price and you would now want to change it to current cost.
