| Calculate Cost Prices by Project (tipcs3250m000) |  |
| Use this session to calculate the cost price of a project and its customized items. The output gives insight in the budgeted, estimated and actual costs per project. To improve system performance, you can run this process in multiple bshells, which allows ERP LN to run the process on multiple processors. The project calculations can be performed in separate bshells. For more information, refer to To use boosters. Note When you execute this sesssion the cost price of cutomized subassemblies are calculated, but only the subassemblies which belong to the projects with in the project range.

Project | A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated by a customer order for items having a To Order order policy. The purpose of a project is to plan and coordinate the production of these items.

Market Value
Prices Based on Lower Cost or Market Value | You can base the value of inventory on the original purchase prices or the market prices. If this check box is selected, and the market prices are lower than the purchase prices, the market prices are used to value inventory. This method is called lower cost or market value (LCMV). If this check box is cleared, purchase prices are used to determine the inventory value. Related topics Lower cost or market value
Reverse to original inventory value at start of current period | Using lower cost or market value (LCMV) to value inventory can result in an inventory value that differs from the inventory value that is calculated based on the original purchase prices. If the effective date is the last day of the previous financial period (the Last Date of Previous Period option is selected), you can use this check box to determine whether the inventory value is based on LCMV or the original purchase prices at the start of the current financial period: If this check box is selected, ERP LN uses the original inventory value when starting the current financial period. If this check box is cleared, ERP LN uses the inventory value based on LCMV when starting the current financial period. Note You can only select or clear this check box if: Your inventory valuation price is actualized: The Perform Actual Cost Price Calculation check box is selected. You use LCMV to value inventory: The Prices Based on Lower Cost or Market Value check box is selected.
