The following tables show the effects on the master record of the material being produced when a product cost collector or manufacturing order (production order or process order) transfers the material to inventory and the actual costs for the order are settled to inventory.
The postings on the product cost collectors or manufacturing orders are the same in each case. The only difference is the setting of the price control indicator of the material being produced.
