Cost factors are applied when the part is ordered and receipted into the system based on the order Type (eg. SO: Stock Order, MD: Machine Down, FI: Fill In, etc.) The Landed Cost of a part will, in turn, be factored into the Average Cost of a part (as specified in the Average Cost field of the Parts Profile tab.)
