Setup = direct labor?

We consider set up as direct labor. We interface inventory with the G/L
and we use average costing for parts we manufacture. We do not track
tooling as inventory in the part master although we do create jobs for
making tooling even if it is not billable as a line item from a customer's
PO.

Another question for the accountants... Is setup normally
considered direct labor as vantage treats it or does the
real world consider it indirect?
