Hi everyone,

I am currently analyzing the database schema for the Manufacturing Edition, specifically looking at the Cost Roll process (AM508000).

I noticed that the core table used during this process, AMBomCost, includes a UserID field as part of its structure.

Could someone please clarify the exact architectural purpose of this field? Is it used strictly for session-based data isolation to prevent conflicts during concurrent cost rolls by multiple users, or does it serve another specific tracking/auditing purpose within the Manufacturing module?

Any insights into how Acumatica handles data inside AMBomCost during the processing lifecycle would be greatly appreciated.
