Creating Rates
Access the Enter/Change Rates form.
- Cost Type
Enter a code that designates each element of cost for an item. Examples of the cost object types are:
A1: Purchased raw material.
B1: Direct labor routing rollup.
B2: Setup labor routing rollup.
C1: Variable burden routing rollup.
C2: Fixed burden routing rollup.
Dx: Outside operation routing rollup.
Xx: Extra add-ons, such as electricity and water.
The optional add-on computations usually operate with the type Xx extra add-ons. This cost structure allows you to use an unlimited number of cost components to calculate alternative cost rollups. The system then associates these cost components with one of six user defined summary cost buckets.
- Business Unit
Enter an alphanumeric code that identifies a separate entity within a business for which you want to track costs. For example, a business unit might be a warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch, or plant.
You can assign a business unit to a document, entity, or person for purposes of responsibility reporting. For example, the system provides reports of open accounts payable and accounts receivable by business unit to track equipment by responsible department.
Business unit security might prevent you from viewing information about business units for which you have no authority.
- Cost Method
Enter a user defined code (40/CM) that specifies the basis for calculating item costs. Cost methods 01 through 19 are reserved for use by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.
- Cost Pool
Enter a grouping of all cost elements associated with an activity.
- Type 1 through Type 4
Enter a code that specifies the type of cost object and the type of editing. Types are stored in the Cost Object Types table (F1620) and can be added or modified using the Cost Object Types program (P1620).
- Cost Object 1 through Cost Object 4
Enter a cost object code, such as an equipment item number or an address book number. If you enter a cost object code, you must also specify the cost object type. This field functions the same and is validated the same as the Subledger field, but the system does not post the data in the Cost Object Code field to the Account Balances file (F0902).
- Subledger Type
Enter a user defined code (00/ST) that is used with the Subledger field to identify the subledger type and how the system performs subledger editing. On the User Defined Codes form, the second line of the description controls how the system performs editing. This is either hard-coded or user defined. Values are:
A: Alphanumeric field, do not edit.
N: Numeric field, right justify and zero fill.
C: Alphanumeric field, right justify and blank fill.
