The following table provides descriptions for the controls in this form.

Fields

Field	Description
Details	Select this check box to view additional information about the resources that cause the variances.
Level	Select the level that you want to use to display the information. Single – View information with a breakdown for a single-level product structure. Multi – View information with a breakdown for a multilevel product structure. You can view cost information for a manufactured component via the cost group. Total – View information for the total with no breakdown for levels in the product structure.
Quantity	View the total good quantity reported as finished for the production order.
Total variance	View the total variance for the production order.
Cost group	View the cost group that is associated with the line.
Lot size variance	View the variance that is related to the difference between the standard cost calculation quantity and the production order quantity. The variance reflects the differences in the amortization of constant costs.
Price variance	View the variance that is related to the difference between the costs that were used for standard cost calculations and the costs that were used for actual consumption transactions.
Quantity variance	View the variance that is related to the difference between the quantities for components and operations that were used for standard cost calculations and the quantities that were used for actual consumption transactions.
Substitution variance	View the variance that is related to the difference between the components and operations that were used for standard cost calculations and the components and operations that were used for actual consumption transactions. For example, the substitution variance can reflect actual consumption of a component that was not in the bill of materials (BOM) for the standard cost calculation.
