Material Costs App Purpose

The Material Cost app is very similar to the Should Cost app, however it focuses on showing only material cost flows throughout a Product. The highest total costs for specific materials will show as the largest grey bars in the Sankey view, giving a clear indication of where the proportion of a Products material allocation, based on cost, is weighted. Alternatively, you can use the Choropleth, Heatmap, and Grid views.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites and usage are the same as in the Should Cost app.
