I think the default for every costing method except Standard cost – will take the job variance and post to the cost of Sales. I actually like this –
In company maintenance under Modules > Production > Jobs – If you are Standard Cost you can post choose to post the direct ship variance to the COS or use the Product Group variance account.

Subject: [Vantage] E9: MFG-CUS job cost timing
Hello,
I am reviewing some part transactions and I noticed that when we ship from a job in Customer Shipment Entry, there is a transaction amount.
I would assume that this transaction amount would come from the job but in an example that I am reviewing, the time when the job was shipped the material was not issued so the actual cost on the job would have been $0.
This job has two materials and no labor is capture against it.
The estimate unit cost for the job was $157.41.
The job shipped on 2/25/2015 but the material for the job was not issued until 2/27/2015.
That would mean that the actual cost for the job was zero at the time of the shipment.
The unit cost on the part transaction from 2/25 is $168.50, which is what the actual cost of the job was on 2/27/2015.
I feel like I’m missing something. Is there a trigger that goes back and updates the cost on the transaction?
