I recently downloaded a report from the group which seemed to be giving me the correct costs for scrap. I have not had a chance to really investigate it, but the little bit of work I did seemed to indicate that it was giving me the costs for scrap at the point where the scrap was recorded. Take a look on Vantage yahoo group, the report is called Scrap2.prl, it actually contains several different reports.

We had the same concerns Mitch. Items reported as scrap
reduce the job yield, and proportionately increase the per piece costs,
but the data doesn't make it to the ledger.
We have switched to having the operator report his scrap as a
non-conformance.
That way we do the Inspection processing and force the costs to an account
of our choice.
Extra steps in the overall effort, but the only way we could find of
capturing the dollars.

Subject: [Vantage] Scrap Costs
We are wanting to switch from tracking scrap manually to letting vantage
do
this for us. Employees are beginning to enter scrapped parts against a
job
via data collection. How do we isolate the cost and quantity of parts
scrapped from a management perspective? I don't see any scrap reports and
I
am not sure how the costs flow through the system.
Please feel free to call off list if you want. Thanks.
