Defining Work Order Control Settings
If you are reporting labor in the Shop Floor Control module, use Work Order Accounting Control (36.9.11) to specify when variances in labor and in burden rate and usage are posted. You can choose to calculate and post variances only when a work order is received or whenever shop floor labor feedback transactions are entered.
Post variances at SFC
Indicate when labor and burden rate and usage variances are calculated and posted.
No: Variances are calculated and posted only when the work order is received. This reduces the number of variance transactions posted to the general ledger, particularly if many shop floor labor transactions are processed before material receipts are recorded.
Yes: Labor and burden rate and usage variances are posted whenever shop floor labor feedback transactions are entered.
