Current Overhead - This Level
Current Overhead - This Level
The overhead currently required to make this level of the product (excluding overhead incurred in manufacturing the product's components). This value will not be used to value inventory; it can be used to track fluctuations in cost. If Product Costing is installed, you can roll this value into the standard cost field. Entering a Y in the Curr Rollover Code field on this screen will allow you to roll over the current cost to the standard cost during a selective cost rollover.
This field is displayed only if:
-
Manufacturing Engineering is not installed.
-
The part is manufactured but the routing is not used to generate costs (cost routing flag=No).
In these situations, MAC-PAC cannot calculate labor costs automatically.
