TROUBLESHOOTING

Can the problem be Duplicated on another instance?

Try the Same Update process on a Range versus Specific item 
or visa-versa.

Be sure to perform a cost rollup prior to the Cost Update? Check if 
Departments and/or Resources been manually added to the item by 
comparing to the primary defined BOM and Routing.


Tables to query for examining results of Cost Updates:
	
        MTL_Transaction_Accounts 
        WIP_Transaction_Accounts 
	CST_Standard_Costs 
        CST_Elemental_Costs
        CST_Std_Cost_Adj_Values
        CST_Std_Cost_Adj_Temp
        CST_Cost_Updates 

Reports to examine results of Cost Updates:
