How to calculate real manufacturing cost?

Question

Does anyone know how to get total cost of product that was manufactured? You can get cost for materials to be used. You just buy them, so you get the cost. You can define workcenter cost, so you will know how an hour cost, but when you manufacture a product, if you go to that product, open it and check it's cost, it will show zero (even if average type is chosen). So is there a way to somehow make OpenERP calculate price for products that were manufactured?

You can build your own custom module for this requirement . You can proceed in these ways: You should first inherit mrp.bom and add a new field 'price_unit': fields.float('Unit Price') and redefine the onchange_product_id function define compute_price and compute_total function to calculate "line price" and "total price" Then you have to inherit mrp.production and define compute_production_cost function to update cost_price from BOM.

@ Ray Carnes [1]  I saw the community module   https://www.openerp.com/apps/trunk/product_cost_incl_bom [2] / but I beleive the problem there is that you are creating another field for the cost inc. BOM. You can see the cost of produced product, but you cant use it. For exmaple if user sells the produced product, the cost of the product won't be written off in journal entries. Because it writes off only from cost field. I mean when you use Anglo Saxon Axxounting.

I am having the same problem and I am not able to find a solution for Oddo 8. I did update the cost manually but when the stock moves are created there is no cost invloved.

Anybody has any solution for this?
