Purpose

This paper details how to cost a configured item using the standard costing system. Configured items are unique in that their standard cost can vary for each work order. There is no bill of material (BOM) for a configured item and the routing is configured, so the discrete standard cost roll-up concept does not apply to a configured item. Product Costing Simulation (P30820) should never be executed for the configured item (stocking type = C) and no frozen standard costs exist for the configured item in the Cost Component Add-Ons file (F30026.)

Since the cost of the configured item changes based on the configuration, the standard cost must be computed each time the configured item is ordered. The system must determine the material and labor costs for each configuration. This is done when the work order is processed and the parts list and routing are attached. The Order Processing program (P31410) performs a cost roll up for each configured work order.
