	<GeneralSection><ProcedureList><ListIntro>SSA ERP posts the following costs for a production order:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>Materials costs</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Operation costs (hours costs and subcontracting costs)</ListItem>
			<ListItem>WIP transfers (see <Link href="/baanerp/ti/onlinemanual/000065" role="manual">WIP transfer</Link> )</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Production surcharges</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Production completion and receipt in inventory</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Price variances, efficiency variances and calculation variances (only for FTP valued items)</ListItem>
		</ProcedureList>
		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>1. Material Costs</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>Materials are issued against a <Link href="/baanerp/ti/onlinemanual/000024" role="manual">Valuation prices</Link>. The valuation price is stored on the actual WIP value on the aggregated cost components. The costs are labeled as non-added costs.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>When SSA ERP issues materials, a MAUC price is booked. The MAUC price in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/cst/ticst0501m000" role="session">Estimated vs. Actual Material Costs (ticst0501m000)</GUIRef> session is the actual cost price for the material line.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph><Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#000073" role="glossary">JIT items</Link> are directly received in WIP without passing a warehouse. Special financial transactions exist for these items to enable direct receipt and billing on use. For these type of transactions the purchase result (when FTP valued item) is also entered into WIP.</Paragraph>
			<List><ListIntro>The postings for materials costs are done for the following origin/financial transactions:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Production. Issue</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Production. Issue direct receipt</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Production. Purchase result direct receipt</ListItem>
			</List>
		</GeneralSection>
		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>2. Operation costs</SectionTitle>
			<List><ListIntro>Operations cost can be split up in two parts:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Hours costs</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Subcontracting costs</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph><GUIRef href="" role="manual">Hours costs</GUIRef>
			</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/cst/ticst0502m000" role="session">Estimated vs. Actual Hours Costs (ticst0502m000)</GUIRef> session, the cost per operation are displayed.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The actual hour costs are posted and processed from <GUIRef href="/baanerp/bp" role="package">People</GUIRef>. If the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0100s000#tisfc000.aort" role="formfield">Actual Operation Rates</GUIRef> field in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0100s000" role="session">Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000)</GUIRef> session is Estimated rates, the hours cost are calculated by using the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#OperRate.ti" role="glossary">operation rate</Link> and the <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#CostCompon.tc" role="glossary">cost component</Link> from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/cpr" role="module">Cost Price Calculation</GUIRef> module.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>If the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0100s000#tisfc000.aort" role="formfield">Actual Operation Rates</GUIRef> field in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0100s000" role="session">Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000)</GUIRef> session is man and machine rates, the hours costs are calculated by using rates and cost components from the machine data in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/rou/tirou0102m000" role="session">Machines (tirou0102m000)</GUIRef> session and the employee data in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd0501m000" role="session">Items - General (tcibd0501m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The hours costs are disaggregated to labor costs, machine costs and overhead costs. For the posting of the overhead, SSA ERP checks the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/bp/mdm/bpmdm0100m000#bpmdm000.oced" role="formfield">Cover Overhead Costs in Employee Department</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/bp/mdm/bpmdm0100m000" role="session">People Parameters (bpmdm0100m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
			<List><ListIntro>The postings are generated on the moment of process hours accounting. The number of hours can be:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Entered manually</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Generated by backflushing</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>The operations costs are posted to the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000053" role="glossary">calculation office</Link> or to the <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#000011" role="glossary">enterprise unit</Link> of the work center. The postings for operations cost are done for the following transaction origin/financial transactions:</Paragraph>
			<List><ListItem>Production.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Operation costs</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>Hours are posted against the detailed cost components that are defined in the operation rates. Price and <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#EfficiVarian.ti" role="glossary">efficiency variances</Link> are calculated based upon these detailed cost components.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph><GUIRef href="" role="manual">Subcontracting costs</GUIRef>
			</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>SSA ERP considers subcontracting as the purchasing of a subcontracting item. The purchase order price of the subcontracting item is calculated by using the subcontracting calculation method and the rate factor in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/cpr" role="module">Cost Price Calculation</GUIRef> module.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The postings are generated the moment when you receive the subcontracted intermediates and are posted to the SFC calculation office or to the enterprise unit.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The subcontracting result is determined by comparing the estimated and the subcontract price. So the purchase order price and the actual amount on the purchase invoice are compared. Before you close the production order the purchase orders, generated for subcontracting operations must have been processed. If the order estimate does not contain any costs for subcontracting, you cannot determine subcontracting results.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>Both operation hours and subcontracting costs are regarded as operations costs.</Paragraph>

			</Paragraph>

		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>4. Production surcharges</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>The surcharges related to the production orders are the item receipt surcharges. Surcharges are always posted to the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000053" role="glossary">calculation office</Link> and are considered as production WIP. The surcharges are posted when the order is completed. Surcharges are based upon the estimated order costs. Upon order closing, the actual order costs, the actual surcharges are calculated. Surcharges are always calculated and posted on the production order level by means of detailed cost components.</Paragraph>
		</GeneralSection>
		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>5. Production completion and receipt in inventory</SectionTitle>
			<List><ListIntro>The following phases can be distinguished:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Report a quantity completed</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Report the order completed</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Receive the items in the warehouse</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>If the items are reported completed, SSA ERP activates a warehouse order. A warehouse order can have a certain inbound procedure. As a result there can be a time lag between the moment reporting completed and the moment the items are posted to the warehouse. This time lag reflects the WIP values.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>If a quantity of items are reported completed, these items are posted to the calculation office. A WIP transfer is carried out from the last operation/work center to the calculation office. The reported quantity stay on the calculation office until they are received in the warehouse. Upon receipt in the warehouse the WIP on the calculation office is decreased with the FTP value (minus warehouse receipt surcharges). Both postings are based upon the three aggregated cost components of the end item. The postings are carried out for the following transaction origin/financial transactions: Production. Completion Production. Receipt</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>First the item is posted to stock with the FTP value. Because you do not know the actual production order cost the actual item (unit) costs cannot be calculated. The actual order costs are determined upon order closure.</Paragraph>
