Cost allocation percentage is fixed for ad-hoc output items.
During work order execution (Report Output Transactions), any ad-hoc output items added default to a fixed cost allocation percentage. Moreover, there is no option on that page to manually enter or modify the cost allocation percentage.
Given that we handle multiple output items and utilize periodic average costing, this setup results in errors within the costing module, as it requires the standard cost for the item—something not applicable in our case.
We would like to have a mechanism that defaults the cost allocation method to percentage when adding ad-hoc outputs, or at minimum, allows updating the allocation to percentage-based before the transactions are sent to the costing module.
