Problem with rounding in standard cost estimate.

Hi All,
Happy 4th of July!
I have a problem with the standard cost estimate where the system try to calculate overhead costs (from costing sheet) with a fix percentage (9.7%) to the value coming from material consumption costs element.
Let say I have $1.71 material consumption and the overhead rate of 9.7%
The real calculation should be (1.71*0.097) = $0.16587
But at CK11N screen, it shows only $0.16 (two decimal rounding)
Is there a way that I can bump the rounding to at least 3 decimal point to make it more accurate?
Very appreciate any input you guys can share. Thank you.
Charitha

Hi Chari ,
My experience says that you can use only 2 decimals ..
Moreover , please have a look into SAP Note : 639410 - CK11N, CK13N: Message CK869 due to rounding
differences.
There a some source code corrections also on rounding differences- check if it helps you also...

  • Is it possible to do Standard Cost Estimate even if we have open sales Orde

    Hi,
    I have a small doubt and questions regarding Standard cost estimate.
    Is it possible to Execute Standard cost estimate when we have Open Sales orders and Open Purchase orders?
    Is there any problem if we execute standard cost estimate when we have open Sales orders and Open purchase orders?
    Kindly clarify my doubt and help me.
    Thanks
    Supriya

    Dear Supriya,
    There is no relation between sales order or purchase order and a standard cost estimate.
    Standard cost estimate basically sums up the cost of the BOM components and the operation(activity
    cost) or the processing cost(if sub-contracted) based on the material's procurement type and the
    costing variant used.
    Check and revert back.

  • Issue with Standard Cost estimates / Material Ledger

    Background:
    We have been using SAP for the last 5 years with Material Ledger active. Due to a number of reasons, we have not revised its standard cost estimates from 2001 till now. This means that at month end, we do not mark and release prices as recommended, nor do we mark prices and use dynamic release.
    What Happened:
    A new material called PFSW3 was made. This is a FERT. Before production
    could start my team released the standard cost estimate for this material. Production was now able to proceed without problem. Then, when the time came to sell the material (VF02), SAP again raised the error 'cost estimate not found'. On checking the standard price in MM03, we discovered that the future cost estimate was missing. So we created and marked a new cost estimate in the middle of February 2007.
    Problem:
    When the first sale took place, SAP released the marked cost estimate and posted a Price Change document to adjust for the new standard cost. I understand this was due to dynamic release. Now, when month end came, the system settled all the production orders of material PFSW3 but did not do multi level costing on it.
    Internal Investigation:
    My team has determined that the material PFSW3 has price determination 2 set by mistake. All our other production materials (HALB and FERT) are
    set to price determination 3 in the material master (accounting view).
    Questions:
    To sum this situation up,
    we need to know why the material PFSW3 was not marked closed in its period status (CKM3) at the time of closing through CKMLCP?
    What are the implications of not closing this material in Feb 2007 (current period status is showing 'Quantities and values entered')?
    How can we close this material this month?
    The future cost estimate is again missing for PFSW3 in March 2007 and I
    fear we are going to face more problems as this material is sold to customers.
    Please respond this is an urgent issue.

    Dear Shumyl,
    Please, have a look at Note 645083 - Material period status set to "Closing Entry Completed" that might help to closing your material in previous period.
    Hope it will be useful.

    Flaviano.

  • Raw materials on MAP with split valuation used in standard cost estimate

    We have a few raw materials which are purchased from different vendors and of different brands. We have opened split valuations for these raw materials. These raw materials are later used in manufacture of different finished goods. We use MAP for raw materials and Std. for finished goods. What configuration and processing steps will be required to run standards cost estimate and what will be standard price for a finished good considering the following example:
    Material X is finished good
    Raw Material A with split valuation @ USD 5 (brand aplha)   &   USD  10 (brand beta)
    Raw Material B without split valuation @ USD 1
    It is expected that we used brand aplha 60% of the time and brand beta 40% of the time and production batch size is usually 100 Kg.
    Please reply
    Edited by: Chris SAP on Sep 29, 2011 7:56 AM

    hi chris
    Hope you have configured the material A for split valuation. while calculating standard cost estimate for the material C. through ck11n, the system will pick up the header price from material master.
    But here you are saying that you have chances of using the material A, 60% of brand alpha and 40% brand beta
    Instead of using split valuation use mixed costing concept. create the material A with separate Ids and create two boms one with alpha and the other with beta.
    create procurement alternative in CK91N and mixed ratio with Ck94 and release the mixed cost estimate
    please go through this thread also

  • Backflush with Prel cost estimate still considering standard cost estimate

    Hi,
    Trying to do back flush with Prel cost estimate . Flagged in REM profile " Post Activities " / Using Data from Preliminary Costing".
    However,  FG rate is considred as per standard cost estimate and not as per preliminary cost estimate.
    Kindly advise whether any other specific setting is needed.

  • Recursive Loop Error while doing standard cost estimate

    SAP Gurus,
    We are trying to do standard cost estimate on a material and we are getting error because it is going in recursive loop even though we have used "recursive allowed" indicator for item components in the BOM. The error message numbers are CK 730 and CK 740. We are using 4.6c. I have tried the same scenario in ECC 6.0 and still I get the same problem.
    Below is my BOM structure:
    Material 10890345 (has low-level code 012)
            ---> 10867220 (has low-level code 013) and has recursive allowed indicator
    10867220
            ---> 10846733  (has low-level code 014) and has recursive allowed indicator
    10846733
            ---> 10890345 (has low-level code 012) and has recursive allowed indicator
    According to me, the BOM for material 10846733 is causing the problem.
    For some weird reason while doing the costing run for material 10890345, it s not stopping and going in a loop.10890345  and 10846733 should ideally have the same low-level code as they are recursive.
    Please help to provide some solutions at the earliest on how to avoid recursive loop during costing.

    Dear,
    I have 2 things to shear with you.
    The method we followed to solve the iteration is as below
    1.Config change -
    Valuation variant in the costing variant, we changed the sequence as below
    material valuation
    4 planned price 1
    2 std price
    3 Mov ave price
    2. Material master change
    made all the semi finished goods and finished goods
    procurement type = E,
    costing with qty structure,
    Enter the planned price1
    By doing this what happens is
    when system first start the iteration, takes the planned price 1 and start iterating and next time in the second iteration it takes the calculated price from qty structure till it finds the difference between the value calculated is less than .001. Then it gives the result
    Why lot size is important is, in our case in some levels the usage is very less compared to the first material header qty and system used to stop in between  and not even reaching the last level as during the cycle it was reaching less .001 difference. may be in your case it may not be the case...just check
    Please come back after trying this. this was the only last option i had to solve the issue in my client.
    Another alternative is to have a different material for costing purpose to stop the iteration which i will not recommend as we need to do some calculation for each stage and input the cost of dummy material in each stage.
    My client is happy with the result as the difference between manual calculation and system calculation is less then .1%...this is because SAP will not consider the difference beyond .001, but in excel you get as many as decimals you want.

  • Re:No release of production order without standard cost estimate

    Hello Experts
    I do not want to release any production order without standard cost estimate
    I have come acroos the same problem raised by some other users and can you please suggest how to achieve this?
    Is there any way to achieve this without user exit?
    Thanks and Regards
    Subbu

    Hello Subbu,
    In this case, you need to put the status as "B4" Blocked in costing 1 view of material master, when you create the costing view and change it to "03" status when you released the cost estimate.
    Please note that this field can be overwritten in MRP view also. Hence please get the good control of material master and good coordination with PP team to achive this.
    Please let me know if you require any clarifications.

  • No release of production order without standard cost estimate

    Hi All,
    I have an requirement, that is production order for a material should not be released or saved if standard cost estimate for that period is not released. Basically it should not allow to release or save the production for that material, is SCE is not run for that period. I tried various options, i also overheard its possible through user exit and many people have succeed in that.
    Has anybody overcome this problem, please do let me know. And which user exit??
    Thanks in advance
    With Best Regards
    GJ.

    Hi...
    I have faced the same problem in my previous project. What i have instructed to my client is to take control of Master data and put the status as "03" Blocked for movement till the statndard cost is released for this material.
    You can relase the status to "E2" in Cross Plant Status Field in Costing one view once the cost estimate is released for the material.
    I hope this works for you.
    Please let me know if you require any fruther information.

  • Material ledger and standard cost estimate

    Hi Gurus,
    When standard cost estimate is done in a scenario, where  material ledger is activated, does the entire stock get revaluated andl post a credit in my P/L? Is it possible  to keep my inventory(FG and SFG) at periodic unit price ie at the actual manufacturing price over a longer period say 3 years? Please fill this gap in my understanding.
    Best regards
    Vimal

    Hi Vimal,
    Material ledger uses the standard price as 'preliminary price' always during the current month, independent of the question if a new standard price was estimated and released.
    But: After period end, when the actual price is calculated the posting will adjust the inventory and P/L accounts to the actual price, with posting date in the recent period.
    That means if you have a material that was manufactured once and then consumed over a 3 year period, and during that period you calculate the same material in a standard cost estimate with changing results, that would mean: Looking back at any month during the 3 years the consumption and stock values will be valued at the actual price of manufacturing. But during the currently open period it will always be valuated at the price of the last released cost estimate.
    I hope I understood your scenario correct...
    Best regards,  Udo

  • Standard Cost Estimate Report Comparing Current vs Previous Year

    Hi Everyone,
    Is there a standard SAP report that would provide materials with previous and current year standard cost estimates as found within the Costing 2 view of the material master?
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Hi,
    You need to look into periodic reports. Here is the best one to provide the copmarision between two period -
    S_ALR_87099932.
    Go into the report & select the costing runs taken in two diffrent periods. You will get all the required results of prices for two periods/costing runs.

  • Can we use two costing variant for standard cost estimate

    Hi,
    Can we use two costing variant for standard cost estimate of two different materials in the same period ? e.g. Costing variant Z001 for Material code 1000 and Costing Variant Z002 for Material code 2000.
    Here the system is not allowing to change the costing variant in Marking Allowance (t code CK24) for marking and release of Material cost 2000 if the standard cost for Material code 1000 is already marked and released.
    Thanks,
    Bijay

    For a material in a period only one price can be released. Though you cn have two separate costing variants and then calculate standard estimate with that. U can release based on one variant only for a month. Or use MR21 and update the price as per the other variant
    Thanks and Regards

  • Costing sheet and standard cost estimate

    Hi
    I am trying to use Costing sheet for overhead calculation .
    But in costing run I am not getting the overhead amount calculated .
    I created the costing sheet and assigned that to valuation variant .
    Where from the actual / Plan values being picked up for over head calculation .
    More over I need to understand on what basis the %age for overhead can be calculted to be aborbed to material cost .
    In costing run I am having ZERO values for overhead .
    I have followed the following steps
    Costing Sheet: Components
    Define Calculation Bases
    Define Percentage Overhead Rates
    Define Quantity-Based Overhead Rates
    Define Credits
    Define Overhead Keys
    Define Overhead Groups
    Even then the Production overhead is not being calculated at the time of Cost Run
    for standard cost estimate .
    regards

    Do you enter overhead  group in the material master.
    Key that groups together materials to which the same overhead is applied.
    Procedure
    In costing with and without quantity structure, and when costing production orders and run schedule headers, you can apply percentage overhead charges by means of an overhead key if you:
    Assign a costing sheet to your production order or run schedule header, or to the valuation variant for the cost estimate
    Enter overhead charges in this costing sheet that use the overhead key field
    Assign the overhead key to an overhead group
    Enter this overhead group in the material master record of the material

  • Price calculated in a standard cost estimate

    Hi everyone,
    Would someone know how to recalculate a price in a standard cost estimate that has been released yet?
    Normally, SAP allows you to calculate a cost estimate only once per period but I would like to recalculate it for the ongoing period. Would you have any idea?
    Nb: Although it is possible, I do not want to change it manually. I would like to go through the whole process (CK11N -> CK24).
    Thanks in advance,
    Ronan

    Thanks a lot for your answer. That answers my question.
    By the way, with the transaction you gave me, you can delete a cost estimate that has be validated for the ongoing month.

  • Excise Duty - Standard Cost Estimate

    Hi Experts,
    We have defined Excise duty as one of the cost component in the cost component structure.  Can some one explain how this Excise duty is posted as planned values in the Standard Cost Estimate ( For material cost quantity from the BOM and price from Material Master is picked up according to the Valuation Variant - defined strategy - similarly for Excise Duty how the system captures the Value).
    Please Help - thanks in advance.

    Hi
    If your Plant is not in an Excise Free Zone - Then You should not add Excise Duty as a cost component because you will be getting credit for the same
    If your Plant is in an Excise Free Zone - Then your MAP/Planned Price etc must be inclusive of Excise duty.... This is handled by marking the excise condition as Non Deductible
    So, in short, there is no way to show it separate... For Case b, you can use CK74N to add Excise component as Additive cost
