Overview:
Global Cost Engine (GCE) enhancements improve data accessibility, bulk processing, and pricing
visibility—helping users work more efficiently with product costing data
Question:
What are the new enhancements in the global cost engine?
Answer:
Improved download experience - The download functionality in X4A Product Costing has been enhanced with clearer actions - Download cost report (from Actions menu) and Download (for filtered UI data). Users can now export exactly what is visible on screen, including applied filters and selected columns, with additional fields (Error category, Ingestion ID, Comment) included for better analysis.
Bulk actions across all pages - Users can now select and take actions on SKUs across multiple pages, including filtered results. The “select all” capability ensures consistent selection across pagination, enabling faster bulk approvals and updates without manual repetition.
BOH (Balance on Hand) visibility - A new BOH column is now available in the product costing UI, displaying up-to-date inventory values for each SKU. This supports more accurate decision-making for base cost updates and price protection calculations across all class types.
