Answer 1

Hi,
  Hi assume u have created required master data,however pls reconfirm whether
a)u r MM mrp profile has rem profile and rem allowed indicator.
b)do u have a valid poduction version
c)in the P>V tab have u CHECKED teh Run shedule header tab.
  Next, step will be to create Run schedule header.(3.1i) ,t code: MF01.or product cost collector as our PP guru suggested.The Run Scedule header is basically an object that collects all the Costing data related to u r product(inclusive of P.V,therefore BOM,Pr line,Routing,Validilty dates for RSh,etc).So when u run a cost estimate for this product the system will pick data with reference to RSh.This RSH is like a cost collector for updating or collecting the costs for this product.
Cost estimate(3.1 i),since our guru has suggested for laetr verison)
--CK11 run cost estimate(pls check status or error logs,and clear error logs with ur CO consultants help)
--CK20 for marking cost estinmate
--ck21 for releasing cost estimate.
Once it is succesfully done,check u r material master for FERT if the Std Cost estimate has updated.
Then u shud not have problem running backflush,since the system will now know where to credit or debit the costs .
GURUS,Pls update on this.
THNX
