Hello,

The purchasing team in my company reported the costing method change from avg to std in more than 10k parts!

My gut tells me that change was man made, however I wanted to ask, has this kind of sudden changes has happened to any of you guys?

Hello @rnarvaez.  I have never seen nor heard of such a costing method change happening “automatically”!  My guess is that someone ran a DMT import and inadvertently changed the methods on those parts.

Regards,

Hello Slepley, Thanks for the reply.

Yes. I’m affraid it was a DMT upload as well.

Do you know if some kind on logs or registry are saved for the use of DMT?

Yes, log files are created by DMT.  They’re normally located in the same location as the data source file.  I honestly don’t know if it is even possible to route the log files to a different location (if it is, I’ve never tried it).
