Hi,
What you can think of as an alternative solution is to activate the subcontract for MRO process in EP4 where you can generate the subcontract purchase requisition from work order and by doing it, the costs of repair will be allocated to work order which will then be distributed to other cost object upon settlement.
Cheers,
HT

> We use subcontracting PO's for repairs to mechanical parts e.g. transmissions. However when goods receipting the items back into stock from the Vendor the material master total value is updated with the cost of the repair and therefore updating the Moving Average Cost of the material.<br/>Users create the subcontracting PO with a nominal value $0.01 and amend when the Invoice is received. This value flows through upon goods receipt. Is this standard or can this be manipulated with config?<br/>My only other option is to get the users to create another line item for the cost of repairs with an account assignment and change the initial line item to "Free". The flow would then update stock and charge off the cost of repairs.<br/>Has anyone come accross this scenario? Suggestions welcome.
