Currently in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, once a costing sheet node has posted transactions, it cannot be deleted or disabled. This creates challenges for companies that want to simplify or update costing sheets after going live, particularly when indirect costs are applied at a detailed level (e.g., per item).
Customers face performance issues when the costing sheet evaluates every node during production journal posting, even nodes that are no longer relevant. Existing options, such as setting the node rate to zero, do not prevent the system from processing the node, and there is no supported way to make a node “inactive” for future calculations.
The inability to deactivate or replace nodes safely leads to limited flexibility, potential performance bottlenecks, and extra complexity for ongoing projects. A solution that allows safe inactivation or expiration of costing sheet nodes would improve system performance, simplify cost management, and reduce operational overhead.
