The purpose of the Production Costing Whitepaper is to help users understand how Acumatica collects manufacturing costs and calculates the cost of an item produced via a production order.
Upon completing the whitepaper, the reader should be comfortable with the following concepts:
- How financial information flows through a production order
- How production orders collect costs
- How Acumatica calculates the cost of an item produced from a(n) Actual, Estimated, or Standard Costing Production Order
- How scrap costs are calculated and processes
This knowledge can be applied it to by-products, and disassembly production orders but these topics are not directly covered within the whitepaper.
