Cost To Serve Details

Internal Table Name: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

The Cost To Serve Details table is populated when you run the Cost To Serve Analysis problem type. You can use Cost To Serve to review the landed cost of the overall flow of product from production to customer receipt for Network Optimization. The results are provided with the lane by lane flow per Customer-Product-Period.

Scenario

Internal Name: Not Applicable (Scenario column not in table)

The scenario for which the summary data was generated.

Customer

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: CustomerName

The name of the customer being served on this network path. In some cases, the Customer column in the Cost To Serve Details table can be populated with Site names. If a Site is displayed in the Customer column, this is an indication that this Site had flow that never reached a Customer. This can occur if flow ends up as inventory instead of being shipped to the Customer. These types of paths are categorized as “Incomplete Paths” in the log file.

The one-time cost incurred for starting operations at the location. This includes both site and work center costs.

Fixed Operating Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: FixedOperatingCost

The cost incurred handling product at the location. This includes both site and work center costs.

Closing Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: ClosingCost

The cost incurred when a location is closed. This includes both site and work center costs.

Site Variable Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: SiteVariableCost

Capital Investment

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: CapitalInvestment

The capital investment cost incurred for sites and work centers.

Facility CO2 Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: FacilityCO2Cost

The total cost attributed to carbon emissions, based on the Carbon Cost from the Greenhouse Gases table, due to Production.

Transportation CO2 Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: TransportationCO2Cost

The cost attributed to carbon emissions, based on the Carbon Cost from the Greenhouse Gases table, due to InterSite Flows and Customer Flows.

Work Resources Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: WorkResourcesCost

The cost from usage of work resources. This is the Fixed Resource Cost + Hourly Cost.

Duty Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: DutyCost

The cost incurred for duty levied on shipments based on the Duty Rate in the Transportation Policies input table. The Duty Rate is a percentage that is multiplied by the Unit Value in the Product table multiplied by the shipment quantity. This determines the Duty Cost.

Costs incurred using the Duty Rate and Tax And Duty Regions tables will be included as part of the Other Cost column in the Cost To Serve Details table.

Refundable Tax

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: RefundableTax

This is the total refundable tax based on the flow of product for the network path.

Internal Name: DemandPenalty

The penalty cost when total demand Quantity is not satisfied.

Other Cost

Table: OptimizationOutputNetworkPathsDetails

Internal Name: OtherCost

This includes the following costs: Transportation Asset Cost, Expression Based Cost, Return Cost, Carbon Offset Cost, Tax Cost and Production Costs with no outbound flows. It also includes duty costs incurred based on entries in the Duty Rate and Tax And Duty Regions tables. Expansion costs, the Fixed Operating Space Expansion Cost from Sites and the Floor Expansion Cost from Site Storage Spaces and Site Shipping Spaces, are included. Costs that have "No path found" are also included in the Other Cost column. This can include costs such as Fixed Operating Cost that fails to be allocated to a path.

An example of the production costs is Site A makes 10 units of a product, but still has 10 units of that product in inventory at the end of the horizon. The production costs in this case are included in Other Cost .
