Beginning Balance Value
Formula
Calculates the value of work in progress (WIP) by summing the cumulative values of:
Each measure is filtered to include only transactions that occurred before the earliest date in the current filter context to provide the starting WIP balance.
Data Source
- Value Entry
Capacity Value
Formula
Calculates the total actual cost associated with capacity usage by summing the costAmountActual field from the Value Entries table where the Item Ledger Entry Type is Blank. This typically isolates capacity-related entries not linked to standard inventory transactions like consumption or output.
Data Source
- Value Entry
Consumption Value
Formula
Calculates the total negative actual cost of materials consumed by summing the costAmountActual from the 'Value Entries' table where the Item Ledger Entry Type is "Consumption" and the Entry Type is not "Revaluation". The negative sign reflects that consumption reduces inventory value.
Data Source
- Value Entry
Ending Balance Value
Formula
Calculates the total value of Work in Progress (WIP) at the end of the selected period. It's calculated by summing the following measures:
Data Source
- Value Entry
Output Value
Formula
Calculates the total negative value of actual and expected output costs by summing the costAmountActual and costAmountExpected fields from the Value Entries table for entries where:
- Item Ledger Entry Type is Output.
- entryType is Direct Cost.
Then, the result is multiplied by -1 to reflect it as a cost deduction.
