Set Up Variable Capacity Cost in MDC

If the Variable Capacity Cost app is installed, you can choose to display the Capacity Cost Factor field when posting production output.

The cost factor is multiplied by a work or machine center's direct unit cost to determine the center's direct cost. This is useful when calculating capacity costs with flexible inputs, such as the number of employees involved in production.

1. Choose the icon, enter Mobile Data Collection Setup, and then choose the related link.

2. On the Mobile Data Collection Setup page, in the General FastTab, populate the following field:

   Field	Description
   Show Capacity Cost Factor	Turn the toggle on to show the Capacity Cost Factor field when posting production output. This field is only displayed if the Variable Capacity Cost app is installed.

   See Set Up Mobile Data Collection for the full steps on setting up MDC.
