Understanding the Speed Cost Maintenance Program

Use the Speed Cost Maintenance program (P41051) to update costs for purchased items in the branch/plants, locations, and lots that you select. You can increase or decrease costs by a percentage or monetary amount, or you can specify a new monetary amount. You can also specify the cost method for which you want to update costs.

This program updates costs for purchased items in the Item Cost table (F4105). Run the Frozen Update program (R30835) to update costs in the Item Cost Component Add-Ons table (F30026) for purchased and manufactured items.

Note: The information that appears on the Work with Location Costs form depends on the cost level for the item. For example, when an item has a cost level of 2, the system displays costs for all branch/plants. When an item has a cost level of 3, the system displays costs for all locations at the branch/plant that you specify.
