BOM Cost Change Analysis (MCR740)

This program allows the user of the FACTS system to enter new costs for component items and the system calculates what effect those new costs have on the final cost of the BOM item it is used to produce. It allows users to analyze how component cost changes affect their total costs.

The user has the option to:

• Select the beginning and ending BOM finished item to print.
  
• Select item description(s) to print.
  
• Select which cost to use in calculating cost changes - standard, average, last or manual.
  
• Enter up to six component item cost changes.
  

Report information includes the following: component item(s) entered and their new cost and the costing unit of measure. For each BOM item, the item number and description, price, pricing unit of measure, current and new cost, costing unit of measure, $ difference and the percentage (%) change are printed. The total number of BOM items listed is also included.
