If the Operation is not the last one in the sequence, the Transaction will credit the value of the Input Items to a Stock Account and debit that value to a Work In Progress Account, as follows:
The choice of Stock Account described in steps 1 and 2 above means that it will not be possible to distinguish the value of Items removed from stock to be used in Productions and Production Operations from the value of the same Items removed from stock for other purposes (e.g. Delivery or Stock Depreciation). If you need to make such a distinction, specify Components Usage and Production Control Accounts in the Account Usage Production setting, in the Item records for the components and/or in the Item Groups to which the components belong. If you do so (i.e. if you specify both a Components Usage Account and a Production Control Account), the Transaction will contain additional postings, debiting the value of the components to the Components Usage Account and crediting that value to the Production Control Account. The Production Operation may contain extra rows allowing you to record the running costs of the Operation. If you have used the Time options on the 'Cost Items' card of the Production Settings setting to choose that you will record Fixed Time against Production Operations, the Production Operation will include four extra rows for each of the cost types, using the Labour Cost Item, Setup Cost Item, Move Cost Item and Queue Cost Item specified in the same setting. If you have chosen to record Actual Time, the Production Operation will include one extra row, using the Labour Cost Item (providing you have used the 'Add Labour' Operations menu function to bring the labour cost into the Operation). If you are using the Use Item Groups for Cost Accounts option, the costs in these rows will be credited to W-cost Accounts chosen as follows:
If any components in the Production are Service Items, they will be treated as Work Cost. Their value will be credited to a W-cost Account chosen as described above, using if appropriate the Production W-cost Account in the Item Groups to which the Service Items belong. If the Production Operation contains a row for Machine Cost (i.e. you are using the Auto Calculate Cost of Produced Items option in the Production Settings setting, you have specified a Machine Cost Item in the same setting, and you have specified a Running Cost/hr in the Asset record for the Machine specified in the Production Operation), the Machine Cost will also be credited to a W-cost Account. This will be chosen as described above, using if appropriate the Production W-cost Account in the Item Group to which the Machine Cost Item belongs. The total value of the Input Item(s) (including Items representing running costs) will be debited to a Work In Progress Account chosen as follows:
If the Operation is the last one in the sequence, the Transaction will debit the value of the Output Item to a Stock Account and credit that value to a Work In Progress Account. These Accounts will be chosen as described above. The Work In Progress Account will be taken from the Item Group to which the Output Item belongs (if you are using the Use Item Groups for Cost Accounts option) or from the Account Usage Production setting. Illustrated below is an example Nominal Ledger Transaction created from the last Production Operation in a sequence: If you have specified in the Account Usage Production setting that you will wait until Finishing the Production before updating the stock valuation in the Nominal Ledger, no Transactions will be created from Production Operations. Instead, a single Transaction will be created from the Production, posting every removal and addition to stock at once. In this situation, all Production Operations must be Finished before you can create the Transaction by Finishing the Production. Once the Transaction has been generated from a Production Operation, you can look at it straight away using the 'Open NL Transaction' function on the Operations menu. --- In this chapter:
