The external operations calculation contains the outsourced operations required to produce the part.When the part to be produced is added to a sales offer or order, the calculation of the part can be copied to this offer or order. You can still change the calculation at this point, if necessary.

The external operations calculation is one of the components of the cost price of a part. The other components are parts, operations, equipment, and surcharges.

Note: When building the calculation, you should take into account the calculation quantity, i.e. the number of parts to be produced to which the calculation applies. You can find the calculation quantity in the part data on the Calculation/production tab. For example, if the calculation quantity is '10 pieces', fill in the quantity required in order to produce 10 parts.
