Distributing Consumables and Waste Receipts to Cost Centers
Workcube has a structure where the quantities and costs of consumables used during production and wastes occurring in production are entered from the production result screens, and the system creates consumable and waste stock receipts directly from these records. The system directly reflects the cost of consumables and wastages entered on the production result screen to the cost of the product produced. (Management of Workcube Product and Production Costs is explained in detail in a separate title.)
Whether they are engaged in production or not, some businesses need to actively monitor the stocks of consumables and even wastage they use for their operations. For example, tracking and managing these stocks is very important for a business that provides repair and maintenance services or a construction company. Businesses with this type of operations can distribute the consumable and wastage costs to different cost centers, items and projects on a product basis from the stock receipt screens.
When you issue a stock voucher (For example, Waste voucher - Consumption Receipt) and come to the update screen of the cut stock voucher, you will see the “Distribute to Income/Expense Items” field in the links at the top right of the page.
When you click on this field, you will see the “Distributing Invoice to Cost Centers” screen.
