Post-calculation offers a function to calculate the expected costs of a given quantity based on the on previously reported quantities. Costs for material, operations, and quantity, depending surcharges are calculated.
Example:
Operation with costs of 2€/Minute
Planned quantity: 10 pcs
without projection |
with projection for 1 piece |
with projection for 10 pieces |
|
1 minute, 0 pieces reported |
2 € |
0 € |
0 € |
1 minute, 1 piece reported |
2 € |
2 € |
20 € |
5 minutes, 2 pieces reported |
10 € |
5 € |
50 € |
This function is useful for actual costs evaluation methods with partial postings.
Example:
1. Operation planned: 10 minutes, costs 2€/minute
2. Operation planned: 10 minutes, costs 2€/minute
Planned 10 pieces, Partial completion 5 pieces
Planned costs: 1. operation 20 €, 2. operation 20 € = 40 = 4 € per piece
without projection |
with projection |
|
1. operation: 10 minutes, 10 pieces reported 2. operation: 10 minutes, 5 pieces reported
|
20 € + 20 € = 40 € : 5 = 8 €/Piece |
10 € + 10 € = 20 € : 5 = 4 €/piece |
1. operation: 10 minutes, 10 pieces reported 2. operation: 10 minutes, 10 pieces reported |
20 € + 20 € = 40 € - 40 € (of first posting) = 10 € : 5 = 2 €/pieces |
20 € + 20 € = 40 € : 10 = 4 €/piece |
This example shows the difficulties of partial postings without projection. The first 5 pieces are valued at 6€, the next 5 pieces at 2€. In certain configurations even negative evaluations are possible.
Material evaluation example:
A BOM item has a requirement of 1 per 1 assembly and a value of 3€
Production quantity = 10
Without projection |
With projection |
|
Material issue total 10 pcs |
10 * 3 = 30€ |
10 * 3 = 30€ |
first partial posting 1 pc |
Posting 30€ |
Conversion to planned quantity, in this case 1/10 = Factor 0,1
30€ * 0,1 = 3€ |
second partial posting 1 pc |
Posting 30€ - already posted = 30€ = 0€ !! |
Conversion to planned quantity, in this case 1/10 = Factor 0,1
30€ * 0,1 = 3€ |
last posting and order completion |
Posting 30€ - already posted= 30€ = 0€ !! |
Not the projection but the accrued costs are used.
30 € - already posted = (3€ + 3€ = 6€) 24 € |
