Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding cost categories in D365 FO. I’ve assigned a resource capability to a route operation, and the operation itself has "Laborer" as both the Run and Setup cost categories.
The resources within the capability include machines with different cost categories — for example, one of them uses "Operator" for both Run and Setup. I understand that during batch order estimation, the system uses the cost categories defined at the operation level, since the specific resource hasn’t been selected yet.
However, when I create a route journal, the system assigns a specific resource (e.g., PACKOP3), and I noticed that:
Is this behavior standard in D365 FO, or is it influenced by a specific configuration?
I’ve attached a screenshot showing this behavior, where the Setup category comes from the resource and the Run category from the operation.
Thanks in advance for your insights!
