Resource Usage Type Field, BOM Component Table

Specifies how the cost of the resource on the assembly BOM is allocated during assembly. You can select from the following options.

Option Description

Direct

The resource cost is allocated per unit assembled.

Fixed

The resource cost is allocated for the whole assembly order regardless of the order quantity.

Example

A worker whose usage cost is directly proportional to the number of units that he or she assembles should be set to the Direct resource usage type.

A machine whose usage cost does not change with the number of units assembled should be set to the Fixed resource usage cost.
