Repair shop order cost for a purchased part?

We have a scenario where we sometimes need to rework a purchased component.

For this purpose we use repair shop order with repair structure and routing. This works fine except that no cost for machine/labor time is captured by shop order cost. Only purchase cost related to cost template used for part (P-140 in my example) are captured.

As a test I created a manufactured structure/routing for same part number. Then created and reported shop order.  This works fine, system captures labor and machine cost despite same cost template (P-140) is used!

I tried different settings to get this to work also for repair shop order. The only way I managed to capture cost is by adding cost bucket (e.g. 300) used for manufacturing to template P-140. This is not a good solution and causes a risk for wrong cost in cost calculation.

Any ideas if/how this can be solved?

I think you will need to use a cost template that includes also cost buckets for manufacturing costs (like bucket 300) in cost set 1 for the part.

You can select to ignore these buckets in the cost calculation by selecting “Use External Acquired Costs”
