Hi!

A strange error message was received when copying cost set 2 to cost set 1 for some parts (copying was done in a batch job):

“Part A on Site B has a total cost greater than zero in the header portion of the part cost screen, but no cost bucket information was found!”

The result was exactly that, the parts got a Total Sales Cost and a Level Sales cost but no information about the distribution, i.e. cost buckets were blank. It was resolved by copying the part to cost set 1 again (individually) but it would be interesting to hear if anyone( @majose perhaps) has a theory on what could have happened so that it can be avoided. Why were info about cost buckets not found when copying?

Background job:

 

Cost set 2:

 

Kind Regards

After some more investigation we could conclude that this relates to a behavior that was discovered after Go live with APP10 but that we could never “prove” to be a bug. When running the All Parts Cost Calculation the cost buckets were removed for some parts. To get them back, they had to be calculated one by one. To resolve this, a migration job was created to discover parts in cost set 2 that had no cost buckets, and the migjob recalculated the parts one by one. In this example, it seems that the parts that were missing cost buckets had Part Status Inactive.  I consider this question resolved. 😊
