Application Cockpit: Product cost calculations allows for previewing calculations created in the Product cost calculations application. The actions executed from the level of the cockpit allow for carrying out calculations and updating the valuation and sales prices.

The data displayed in search results is retrieved from the Product cost calculations application.

The buttons available in the applications of Cockpit and the functionalities of these applications (e.g., handling fields available in the identification pane and additional sections) are described in article Batch applications.

The application  is composed of the identification pane and the workspace.

  • Show grouping and sort area – allows for dragging the name of a column onto displayed area and grouping data according to selected attribute
  • Hide grouping and sort area – allows for hiding of the grouping area
  • Expand all groups – expands line items grouped in the table. The button is available if the data in the table is grouped according to selected column.
  • Reduce all groups – reduces line items grouped in the table The button is available if the data in the table is grouped according to selected column.
  • Show all areas – displays all columns and descriptions
  • Hide all areas – hides all columns and descriptions

More information regarding the configuration of views can be found in article Customizable user interface.

The columns in the table correspond to the descriptions of the fields available in the application header. In addition, columns containing calculated costs are displayed. These are:

• Item price – the unit cost for the item for which the product cost calculation was carried out, is displayed. If in used calculation schemes (in the Total costs by line item number field), the calculation row from which the cost for calculating unit cost was supposed to be retrieved, is not defined, the system retrieves the value from the last calculation row.
• Total costs – displays calculation result for the calculation row defined in the calculation scheme, in the Total costs by line item number field. If no row number is defined for the calculation scheme, the system retrieves the value from the last row of the calculation.
