E1: 31A: Current Cost Simulation - R30812 Adds By Product' X Costs from Both Process Items Although One of Them Has Zero Cost % Defined in the Co-Product Planning/Costing Table - P3404 (Doc ID 3063606.1)

Symptoms

If a By Product is produced by two process parents, but one of them has 100% Cost % set in P3404 - Co-Product Planning/Costing Table and the other one is set with a zero Cost %, upon running R30812 - Current Cost Simulation over the two process items, the X cost of the By Product is added from both parent processes.

The issue can be replicated at will using the following steps:

1. In P4101 / P41026 set two process items with the same CO and BY Products for each of them.
2. In P3002P set þat Cost and þat Resource as 0.70 for CO Product and 99.30 for BY Product.
3. In P3404 - Planning Table for the BY product, set the cost % as 100 for the first process and 0 % for the second.
4. Run R30812 over both process items.
5. In P30026 check the costs of the By Product and notice the incorrect results: the X cost is doubled (i.e. $19.86).
6. Run R30812 over the 100% cost process item only.
7. P30026 for by item after R30812 is run over first parent (process) shows the correct X cost value (i.e. 9,93).
