1. fact: Oracle Cost Management 11.5.6




3. fact: CSTRBICR6G - Cost Rollup - Print Report GUI




5. fact: CSTRBICR - Indented Bills of Material Cost Report




7. symptom: Assembly Cost Rollup - Print Report has inconsistent costs in the


8. report




10. symptom: Mismatch between sum of extended cost and the report summary




12. symptom: Item cost is being included for expense items




14. cause: Flags Not Set Correctly

fix:

For Issue 1:  According to documentation, Inactive items were not supposed to
be rolled up.  However, it was. The Include in Rollup flag and Inventory Asset
flag need to be turned off, and the zero cost updated to Frozen, and then
rolled up to the assembly level.

For Issue 2:  When submitting a request for cost rollup - print report, the
cost rollup is done and the "Bills of Material Indented Cost Report"
is printed.
This report shows up all the items in the BOM of the assembly for which rollup
is being done.

When Include in Rollup Flag is set to No for an item in the BOM of an
assembly, the item will not be removed from the BOM. It would merely not have
the item's cost included in the parent cost while rolling up costs.
The final assembly cost would not include the costs of items with Based on
Rollup Flag NO (the extended cost column would be zero for such items, even if
they are asset items having some unit cost), but they would show up in the
report with Include in Rollup Column as No.

When the Include in Rollup Flag is set to NO for an item in the BOM of a parent
item, (this is available in the Component Details Tab of Bill Of Materials form)
it would only default that value for BOMs which are created after that.

Cost rollup would refer only to the BOM of the assembly, and if Include in
Rollup is unchecked there, then the report would show the Include in Rollup
column as NO.  Unchecking Include in Rollup Flag for an item in the BOM
would print the Include in Rollup column in the report as zero, and prevent the
costs of an item from being rolled up.
