Cost

Factors that impact costing are the same as currently implemented in Manufacturing Edition. Cost factors are the following: labor, machine, material, tools, and overhead. These factors are not individual, configurable components. The cost factors are attached to bill of material as fixed entries. The only configurable cost factor is material which may vary depending on the configuration results through selected options and multilevel configurations.
