Auto provisional costs
This parameter defines whether the provisional costs for a work order should be calculated automatically, or on demand.
In WO creation and modification - This is the default value for this parameter. Provisional costs are calculated automatically when the following events occur:
- A new work order is raised. Provisional costs are calculated automatically when a new work order is raised.
- An existing work order is modified. Provisional costs are recalculated automatically after each modification to a work order.
- A subcontract order is modified. Provisional costs are recalculated automatically after each modification to a Subcontract order (GESSCO), if an operation in the routing is subcontracted to an external supplier.
No - Provisional costs for a work order are calculated on demand. With this parameter set to No, two options are provided for calculating the provisional costs of a work order as, and when required. You can use one or both of the following:
- The Calculate expected cost function (CALMFGCOST). Use this function to calculate provisional costs for one or a range of work orders.
- The WO provisional cost calculation action in the Work order function (GESMFG). Use this action to calculate provisional costs for a specific, or the current work order.
In WO creation - Provisional costs are calculated automatically when a new work order is raised.

Comments
Parameter CSTRCPORD - Provisional cost declaration (GPA chapter, COS group) determines if the provisional cost calculations are for the theoretical provisional costs of a work order or for the provisional release costs of a work order.
