What’s happening?
The customer requires verification of operations within a copy environment, specifically checking if the cost variance is recorded as "production alternative variance" when creating items with the same specifications and quantities as in the original environment.


Reason:
This appears to be related to the settings of the routing group, which may affect how cost variances are recorded during the production process.


Resolution:

  1. Create items in the copy environment with the same specifications and quantities as the original manufacturing order to check if the cost variance is recorded as "production alternative variance."
  2. Capture a screenshot of the routing group settings during the reproduction of the issue.
  3. If the cost variance is recorded as "production price variance" instead of "production alternative variance," switch the routing group settings and verify the operation again.
  4. Provide a screenshot of the routing group settings that resulted in "production price variance."
  5. Review the provided documentation related to routing and pricing management for further insights:

  11. If there are indications that the routing group settings are not the cause of the issue, provide feedback accordingly.
