Variable Capacity Cost

If the Variable Capacity Cost app is installed, users can enter a cost factor for the operation when posting output. The work or machine center direct cost will be calculated by multiplying the cost factor by the direct unit cost.

This feature can be used when you calculate capacity costs using flexible inputs, such as the number of employees involved in production.
