BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Actual Costs for Manufactured Items

In LX, the actual costs that can be set up fall into three categories: Material, Labor, and Overhead. If your LX database is set up properly with the LX cost accounting, you should be able to identify:

  • How much the item should cost
  • How to track the cost of work underway
  • How much the item actually did cost
  • Why the job cost varied from the expected cost
     

Capturing the data to track activity with associated costs can be time-consuming. With an MES solution, the information you need for costing is tracked instantly.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

When an attempt is made to change an item’s type to a non-inventory item from any other value, a new validation is performed to determine if the item has any inventory on hand and, if so, prevents changing the item’s type.

This enhancement available in LX 8.4 prevents LX from showing an on-hand inventory balance for a non-inventory item.

The programs or areas impacted include:

  • Facility/Planning Data Maintenance, MRP140D2
  • IDF Enterprise Item

To get this enhancement, request and apply MR 80120.

An 8.4.1 EGL audit enhancement now provides visibility to who and when a financial journal was last maintained and to who and when the journal was approved. The enhancement provides audit attributes for last maintain user, date, time and approval user, date time on the Financial Journal Entry and Financial Journal Entry Lines.  

The programs or areas impacted include:
