in order to calculate the estimated material cost in the finish good shop order for a zero on-hand item I have entered the estimated material cost in the inventory part window (cost tab). The shop order is calculating the estimated material cost based on the entered value but the issue is the cost source value is (asterisk) * for that particular component in the shop order costs window. I want to know whether there is any way to solve this issue? 

Relevant screenshots are attached.

Hi,

The exact issue is not quite clear to me.

But you can setup cost sources and cost source indicators in Cost Detail Basic Data to track cost sources of components used in producing a part. Cost sources only work when you use actual costing.
