We use Style so my apologies if your version is different. As far as I am
aware there is no link between the built up landed cost that can be viewed
in Item vendor profile and the standard cost on the stockroom balance
file. Usually there will be some correlation but the standard cost is
applied manually. In all the years I worked with standard cost in the
past, this was the value determined by the costing department to be the
best representation of the value of the goods taking into account many
factors. Often the standard cost would be different at some stockrooms
due to the logistics of getting inventory to that point. At one time
standards were changed annually so sometimes a provision for future price
increases was built in. Since moving to the US, I have seen standards
being changed more often and stricter rules applied.
As a result we built modifications whereby we can roll the standard cost
directly from the item vendor profile maintenance, complete with audit and
automatic INP95/96 postings and have all stockrooms carry the same
standard cost.

Re: [SYSTEM21] Standard cost calculation from Landed Costs
Hi Lee
If you use Standard Costing, what you see is correct. When you are in
5/INM
and you enter F14, it will display the landed cost elements. Be careful,
because some could be compounded/price dependent, whereas others might not
be.
I have used landed costs extensively, both with Standard Costing and FIFO
and they always seem to work OK.
Please email direct if you have any further problems.
Kind regards
Simon Sherwood
