I’m not sure if this is expected behavior of the Operation No field in the By-product tab in shop order, but I’ve noticed that linking it to an operation number does not change how the OH cost and Oper cost are applied to the byproduct. Is this the correct behavior? and if so, is there a way to only apply a specific operations labor cost to a byproduct? (the material is correct because it has it’s own cost distribution tab)

in this example, 175237-057-R is the byproduct produced in operation 10.

Linking a by-product to an operation mainly controls from which operation it should be received. It does not affect the quantity or costing. Only the operation cost distribution % is used for the cost.
