Case Study & Technical Analysis: CAC Item Cost Summary
Executive Summary
The CAC Item Cost Summary report is the workhorse of cost reporting. It provides a straightforward, comprehensive list of item costs for a specified Cost Type and Organization. It is the “go-to” report for answering basic questions about inventory value, standard costs, and item attributes.
Business Challenge
Users need a simple, reliable way to extract cost data.
- Accessibility: Navigating screen-by-screen to check costs is inefficient.
- Attribute Context: Knowing the cost is not enough; users also need to know the Item Status, Make/Buy code, and Default Accounts to understand the context.
- Uncosted Items: Identifying items that have been created but not yet costed (Cost = 0) is a critical maintenance task.
Solution
This report provides a flat, filterable list of item costs.
- Comprehensive: Includes Unit Cost, Material Cost, Material Overhead, Resource, OSP, and Overhead buckets.
- Context Rich: Includes Inventory Asset Flag, Planning Make/Buy Code, and Default COGS/Sales accounts.
- Maintenance Aid: The “Include Uncosted Items” parameter helps identify gaps in the costing setup.
Technical Architecture
The report queries the primary costing view:
- Core Table:
cst_item_costs. - Item Details: Joins to
mtl_system_itemsfor descriptions and control flags. - Account Resolution: Joins to
gl_code_combinationsto show the default accounts associated with the item.
Parameters
- Cost Type: (Mandatory) The cost type to display (e.g., Frozen, Pending, Average).
- Include Uncosted Items: (Mandatory) Toggle to show items with no cost record.
- Item Status to Exclude: (Optional) Filter out Inactive or Obsolete items.
Performance
- Scalable: Designed to handle large item masters.
- Indexed: Efficiently filters by Organization and Cost Type.
FAQ
Q: Does this show the breakdown of resources? A: No, it shows the total Resource cost. For a breakdown by specific resource (e.g., Labor vs. Machine), use the “Item Cost & Routing” report.
Q: Why is the cost zero? A: Either the item is new and hasn’t been costed, or it is an Expense item (Inventory Asset Flag = No) which is not tracked with a value in inventory.
Q: Can I use this for Average Costing? A: Yes, simply select the “Average” cost type.
