About Material Cost Estimatite Valuation Strategy

Material PPC001 have three purchase info record, it's price is 4.27/CNY,3.68/CNYand 2.56/CNY. Price 4.27/CNY and 2.56/CNY have invalid. Material of moving average price is 3.14/CNY. When I create the material cost estimate,in the material valuation, system use moving average price to calculate cost price. But in last month, I create the cost estimate, the material vaulation is use Price form purchase info record. I dont know what the material still has valid price 3.68/CNY, why system use moving average price to calculate cost price? How to work about the material valuation Strategy?
My material valuation variants priority strategy sequence is 1.Price form Purchasing Info Record,2.Moving Average Price,3.Standard Price in Previous Period.

Material cost Valuation Exit: COPCP005(EXIT_SAPLCK21_002)

Hi Experts,
I am using this Enhancement COPCP005(EXIT_SAPLCK21_002) for material costing using valuation strategy U . When i try to cost a material which is a header BOM in CK11n the costing is done by info records for the header material. Configuration settings are already done in OKKN for valuation strategy U. When we tried to put a break point in user exit...it is getting triggered only for the component. i.e i am able to change the value of the component, but not for header.
Please let know if inputs you have..

Costing variant/valuation variant

dear gurus,
    can any body explain the costing variants,valuation variant,costing sheet,costing type,how it is integrated in production order in controlling tab.can any body explains the customizing part of product costing and overview.
if any body is having the product costing material please send to [email protected]
    please through some light on product costing
                                                                        -gide

Hi,
Every cost estimate we create is based on the costing variant.
In the costing variant we define the control parameters and settings for costing
Settings contains info such as prices that will be used to cost the materials and activities
Control parameters are used for the automatic determination of of qty str ie Bom and Routing
Every costing variant contains a valuation variant and a costing type , date control , qty str control.
Valuation variant:
Valuation variant defines the price with which the material and activities are valuated
determines 1.which price is taken from material masterrecord to calculate the material cost
2.
which price is taken from cost center accounting to calculate the costs for internal activities
3. which price is taken from purchasing info rec to calculate the the costs for ext activities / subcontracting
4. which costing sheet is used to calculate the over head costs
Costing type:
costing type defines the valuation view to be costed and defines the purpose of costing.
Date control :
       controls the validity of the cost estimste , qty str date.
Valuation class:
For material costing the valuation class controls the cost element to which the planned cost of the material are assigned and the cost element under which the actual costs are updated when the material produced is delivered to stock
Valuation category:
specified the criteria according to which partial stocks are distinguished from one another
Price control indicator:
the price control indicator specifies whether the stock of the material is valuated with standard price or moving avg price
costing sheet:
            The costing sheet links all the functions for overhead calculation.
    In the costing sheet we determine the following
    1.The direct costs to which the over head is applied
    2.The condition under which the over head is applied
    3.Whether the over head is applied as a percentage basis or on a qty basis
    4.The amt of overhead percentage
    5.The validity period of the over head
    6.Which object is credited ( order , cost center) and which cost element in the case of actual posting
   We enter the costing sheet in the valuation variant in customising

Raw material costing - Valuation strategy with info-rec. "L" - Consignment

Hi all,
I want to implement raw material costing for all our raw material.
I created a new costing variant which use strategy "L" (price from purchasing info-record). My sub-strategy is 9 - Effective Price from PO followed by 5 - Effective price from info-record.
Everything works well except for consignment with vendor.
I have a raw that is procured from a vendor. The price for the raw is stored in the purchasing info-record and has condition types associated with it. This PIR is of CONSIGNMENT type. However, When costing the raw in CK11N the price for this consignment material is not pulled into the estimate.
I have seen in note 552486 that "For the valuation with a price from the info record, the system can basically only consider info records with category 'N' (normal) and 'L' (subcontracting). "
Have any of you come accross this situation? if yes, how did you resolve it?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
any other idea about this ? I want to use strategy "L" but want to know if I can make it work with consignment.
Thanks

Material Valuation-Easy Cost Planning Using Valuation Strategy U(Userexit)

Hi Experts,
I am implementing a userexit for CJ20N for Valuation Price with Valuation Strategy U: COPCP005, in that i activated the function exit EXIT_SAPLCK21_002 and wrote my logic in that, i want to use project wise material price instead standard price which is stored in a Z table.
For that i need to identify the project ID inside the function exit, i can get it using the input parameter IMP_AUFNR for WBS with Network, for Easy Cost Planning the same exit is triggered but iam not getting the IMP_AUFNR there, so i want to know how to identify the project inside that function exit.
Could someone suggest me a way to find out the Project ID or description or WBS element inside the function exit.
Thanks in Advance.

Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "117122"

Hi people,
We have the error:
=====================
Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "117122"
Diagnosis
In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), the system tried to valuate a line item using the current standard cost estimate.
In order to determine the current plan period, the system needs to read the valuation segment of the material master.
The system has found that the current plan period is not filled forproduct "117122" in plant "UBE1".
We have the follow configuration in trans.: KE40:
. Determine material cost estimate
   . Transf. Standard Cost Estimate
. Costing Variant
. Control Data for Standard Cost Estimate
   . Period Indicator = "Current Standard Cost Estimate acc. to entry in mat master
. Addiitonal data CO-PC
    . Transfer cost estimate in controlling area currency "activated"
We think the reason about our error is because the field above is activated and some configuration more is necessary for this case. For examplo: Trans.: OKYW and this one was not configurated yet.
Do you know what happend?
If we need to configure some transation, or sonly process the cost estimate?
Thanks,
Rosana.

Hello Guido
Thank you very much for your return.
It is happenning in a Client that some people are doing the configuration.
Before we didin't have in KE40, the fiel "Transfer cost estimate in controlling area currency" activated.
And now, the people activate that in this new Client and I don't know the impact about that.
I think we have to make the configuration in OKYW.
The other transation you told me, we don't have any information.
Could you tell me some other idea what happend?
Message error is just "Message no. KE350"
Abou claculate the cost:
It was calculated by trans.: CK11N for future planning and the real wasn't not possible to release because this material already have moviments.
Could you tell us is there is some thing more to do?
Thanks,
Rosana.

Material valuation strategy U in valuation variant

Dear All,
We r trying to use the material valuation strategy U in the valuation variant.
We have also activated the project with the user exit
COPCP005 : User exit for material valuation (strategy U)
Component :EXIT_SAPLCK21_002
INCLUDE ZXCKAU08
However we r not able to get the desired result.
Could you please guide.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Ram
During first costing run planned prices entered thru MR 21 will be updated as standard prices. Which means planned prices = std prices.
If you wish to change the prices 6 months down the line = u need to MR 21 upload again and over the earlier planned price. Then u do costing run again. with this costing run, if there is diff in standard prices, system posts revaluation entry.
For Raw materials
Create a simple query which gives u moving avg price, current std price. Analyze the variances and consider revised prices as planned prices for the next 6 months. Next, do costing run and system revaluates the inventory values for raw materials.
If the situation is that prices of raw materials are highly volatile, do costing run level by level as earlier suggested.
But give a word of caution to client on how dynamically variances get recorded and revaluation entries get posted. Also tell them how it impacts not only raw material valuations but also finished and semi finished stock valuations.
Pls assign points if the above clarifies your requirement.

Costing variant with a valuation strategy

Hello all,
I have the following issue:
In PM I have defined a costing variant with a valuation strategy first u201Cstandard priceu201D and second u201CMoving Average priceu201D, and assigned this costing variant to the plant and order type.
When I create a PM order (PM01) with a planning plant and enter the components in the order with a different plant and determine the cost, the system determines the correct plan costs based on the Costing variant for planned costs. The planning plant and the plant where the components are reserved are belonging to the same company code.
When I create the same order with a planning plant and a different plant for component reservation and both plants belong to different company codes and determine the costs, the system doesnu2019t take the Costing variant into account. The costs are determined based on the price control assigned to the material type and not based the valuation strategy. In this case always the moving average price is taken.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance

Hi
In OIOF you can specify the valuation variant for plant and order type, system determines the same . for your second case kindly check in the order which valuation variant system has determined.

Renovation Order Calculation Variable Cost about Material

Hi
I created PM Renovation Order (SPRO) and it function, but I have problem with calculation variable Cost about Material. If I move material from valuation broken to repaired, so average cost is always 0. What is exigency to set, so cost averaged. At order are cost material I work.
Thank you
Martin

hi
ensure that valuation type(Repaired) should be in "to" area in the refurbishment order.
Example:
In the refurbishment order,
From plant 8000 storage loc ST01 valuation type(Defective)
To plant 8000 storage loc ST01 valuation type(Repaired)
do the goods receipt in IW8W and order settlement and check the price

Valuation Strategy for Sales Order Costing

We are currently using valuated sales order stock in ECC 6.0. The "without valuation strategy field" on the requirements class is not checked. However, the valuation strategy varies for a material and for a sales order. Sometimes it is using valuation strategy 2 - cost from the production order cost estimate - which is desired and other times valuation strategy 3 - cost from the standard price field in the material master - which is not desired. When is the valuation strategy determined for a production order for valuated sales order stock?

Costing Variant is assigned to Requirement class
Requirement class is assigned to Requirement type
Requirement type is assigned to Planning Strategy
Planning strategy is assigned to strategy groups
Strategy group is assigned to MRP3 tab in Material Master
System picks the costing sheet in requirement class
In this way product will be costed for Make to Order sale order costing.

Error in quantity translation in CO-PA valuation using material costing

Dear SAP Gurus,
While releasing the billing document to accounting I am getting the following error:
Error in quantity translation in CO-PA valuation using material costing
Message no. K/821
Diagnosis
In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), the system tried to use a material cost estimate to translate the unit KG for the material KG into the base unit of measure EA for that material.
The system could not do this.
System Response
The document cannot be processed further.
Procedure
Check the quantity entered in the affected CO-PA quantity field &V4 .
If necessary, change the material master to allow the unit KG as an alternative unit for the material 970000000000000016.
Can anyone provide me with a solution to the said problem.
Regards
Nikit

Hi Piet,
That does not seem to be the solution as i cant define for all the materials how many units EA = how many kgs. Thanks for the reply anyway

Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product

Hi Experts,
Message no. KE350, Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "2286940000". Please suggest me to resolve this issue.
Points will be provided for good solution.
Regards,
Jay

Hi Jaya
This means that your customization is wrong then...
In KE4J or KEPC you have assigned costing keys to your material types or some other combination... You should have done this config in a way that costing key is not called for in the case of non valuated materials...
In Ke40 you have defined costing key where in you have specified "Issue error msg if no cost estimate found".. This costing key is assigned in KE4J or KEPC in a way that it is getting called even in case of non valuated materials...
Do you have a separate mat type for non valuated material? If yes, remove this mat type from KE4J/KEPC..
If you dont have separate mat type i.e. in the same mat type if you have both valuated and non valuated, then you have a problem.. You would get stuck in that case

Valuation using material cost estimate

Ciao a tutti,
We have create a material cost
estimate without standard structure(unit costing) not FOR ALL MATERIALS, but only for ONE
VARIANT of generic material (retail solution) (because the other variant have the same price, and because we have to reproduced 5000 BOM in unit cost for just
one variant with transaction KKPA LSMW)
So, now we have to valuated the material cost estimate when the customer create the billing document and put the split of the cost estimate in co-pa
Our prolem is : we have calculate standard cost estimate for 5000
variant not for all variant (because our customer crete the BOM in unit
costing with transaction KKPA and LSMW, and they refuced the idea to
calculate 30000 cost estimate with lsmw) so when we crete a billing
document with a variant that haven't cost estimate created the system doesn't
valuated the cost estimate (the system works well), but how I can change the variant in the valuation and put the variant that have the cost
estimate calculate?
Wiht the transaction "Assign Costing Keys to Any Characteristics" I think
is not possible.
I must to use enhance COPA0002?
Thank you very much

Hi All,
I am also facing the problem for Sales Order Cost Estimate. and the Costing Status is VO(Marked without errors).
I have done the following
created the Costing Key (sales order cost estimate)
assigned costing key to the material type.
assigned to the respective value fields
sales order cost estimate,
Run the RA
Settlement done.
But in COPA, cost estimates are not being split up based on the cost component (like Material, Labour and Over head) and it is getting posted to COGS only.
Do we need to change the costing status to FR, if yes, but how to do ?

Split Valuation Material Cost Estimate into COPA

Hi all,
Is there any way how we can transfer the split valuation material cost estimate into COPA?
I checked the actual line items, there is no "valuation type / batch" characteristics there.
Is this the main cause?
Please kindly suggest on the best way to solve this issue
Thank you very much
Regards, Erwin

Hi, Ajay
Does this mean that, even though i manage to create the valuation type as characteristic in COPA, i won't be able to get 2 different cost estimate based on valuation type into COPA?
Hm, then, are there any solutions which can be done to solve this issue?
The client needs a COPA report which can show the breakdown of the sold materials cost estimates
As usual, thank you very much for your help
Regards, Erwin

Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product " 200038 "

Hi,
I am getting an error:
Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product " 200038 " (Message KE350).
Kindly assist on the same?

If this material is mto material go to t.code KE40 and maintain define access to standard cost estimate define cost key with
"Transfer sales orde cost estimatex".
If it is mts material define costing key with Transfer std cost estimate and in costing data
costing variant : ppc1
costing verstion: 1
period indicator: Release std cost estimate matching with goods issue or material costing matching posting date.
This will resolve ur problem.
