Batch wise actual material consumption and activity cost

hi
my client is steel industry, client requirement is heat wise actual material and machine cost. Heat is a batch number, how i can check batch wise actual material consumption and machine cost.
regards
imdad

Hi Imdad
Whats the batch definition in your case?? have you designed One batch per Prod order or One batch per GR?
If its one batch per Prod order - you can directly see the prod order.. however, chances are less for this as Steel company might be using PCC i.e. repetitive mfg
If its one batch per GR - Then you will have to track using the Confirmation no because each Confirmation will trigger the Goods Issue and Activity Confirmations...
Using Table AFRU - You can track the individual Confirmation no and also the Activity Qty confirmed....COSS / COSSD will have the Activity Cost
If any goods mvt are posted during the Confirmation, you would see a Mat Doc No populated in the field "Mat Doc"

Material Cost Estimate with Qty Structure - Activity Cost

Hi All
While executing the Cost Roll up (CK11n) Im facing a peculiar problem . I have defined an activity for which the rates are also maintained in KP26 against the Basic UOM(eg for 1000 activity 10Rs is the variable price mentioned) . When Im taking the min lot size say 1 for the costing run the quantity appearing against this activity is appearing in the lower UOM (taking actual gms but the value for this activity is appearing in rupees only calculating from activity price x this figure). This is making the whole activity cost on very higher side .whereas If I execute with the same factors but with big lotsize say 1000 the value for the activity is coming absolutely ok .
Pls confirm me how to put a check on the value of activity or uom of activity to evaluate the standard costing with minimum lower size also
Best Regards

Active Cost Centers

Req : List of active cost centers in a month.
I tried doing this : ECC - Table CSKS - Contents
<b>CostCenter|ValidTo|ValidFrom</b>
AKST1|09/01/1999|07/31/2009
AKST2|08/31/2007|09/31/2007
AKST3|06/31/2007|09/31/2008
AKST4|12/31/2007|07/31/2010
Valid To & Valid From seemed not to be of any use in this context ( for filtering ).
When I do filter for valid cost centers in the month of 07/2007 by inputing - Valid From - 07/01/2007 | Valid To 07/31/2007, it doesn't do the look up if the inputed dates lie btn Valid From's & Valid To's Existing in the table. What it actually does is it just luks for 07/01/2007 if existing in all the Valid From dates available in the table & same for Valid To's....n so results no data for this instance.
Is there any workaround to get the list of active cost centers in a given period on ECC or BI side?

If you try the steps I gave beforee, it should work:
Try this:
1. Make cost centre as a info provider - RSA1 - Inset chars as info provider.
2. This makes cost centre as a reportable object.
3. Create a variable on valid from and give single values.
4. Same for valid to.
5. Use both variable in the query.

Settlement of internal activity cost to primary cost element.

Hi Gurus,
My client has a urgent requirement to settle the internal activity cost captured through Warranty order to a primary cost element (FI), also need an offsetting entry to another primary cost element against the first one.
Note: The value should flow to COPA also.
Please suggest the way through which it can be achieved.
Best Regards,
Ramakanta

When you do settlement of the order, you can post to FI all the balance of the order.
Just configure int he peroid end closing tab of the order the settlement cost element (P&L) and the g/l account (BS- offsetting)
For sure you can do this on a internal order, i don't know about warranty order (but shall be the same). Otherwise you can first settle to an internal order and then to the desired GL account.

Paolo

Active cost center field in delivery item line

Thanks for this Forums.
I want to active cost center field in delivery item line.
how can I do it?

Hi,
In Del Doc.--> Financial Processing --> Account Assignment
This are Automatic entries, posted while delivery done.
As, you may find entries in Field: Profit Center (as Income posting from Internal order)
Similarly, Field: Cost Center may get hit by some entry if there is any subsequent Purchase Order, linked to your Sales Order. so, when you Accept services from your vendor, a delivery gets genrated to your Customer with posting expense in to the Cost Center.
However, I would suggest you to post the same query in to Forum: SAP Financials or wait for some other Senior Member's comment.
Best Regards,
Amit.

Activity Costs Revaluation Using Actual Price

Hi,
Since we can revaluate the activity costs at actual price in the product costing module itself using t.code MFN1, why SAP has provided another option to revaluate acticvity consumption at actual price in the material ledger multi level price determination?
What is the difference between the both? If i had used MFN1, do i still have to use the revaluation of activity costs provided in the material ledger?

Hi,
However don't you think if the production order activity cost has been revaluated at actuals in the production order then during settlement it will carry the activity actual costs which will be shown in material ledger receipts category with the same actuals value for the activity costs.
So why should i be revaluating the activity costs again with actual activity price in material ledger once again? It sounds like a duplicate work to me under this scenario....

Actual Activity Cost

Hi Friends
For calculating the actual rate system take all the actual activity cost and divide it with actual quantity. I want to know how the system is calculating actual activity cost.
In KSII system will calculate the actual activity rate. What is the backgroung calculation. Or how to find out the actual activity cost per period is XXXX.
Regards
Jos
Edited by: Joji Jose V on Nov 15, 2010 3:58 PM

Hi Jose
1. Actual Activity cost means Actual cost posted with cost center and act type in FI postings / Depreciation postings
however, this is quite rare... To use this, Act Type must be switched in OKKP in Control Indicators
2. In absence of (1), Actual Actvity cost means Actual cost posted with cost center
3. If there are more than one act type in a cost center, then KSS2 would split the costs between the act types based on your Splitting rule in OKES... And then these costs would be divided by Actual Act Qty to calculate the Activity price

but my client want cost center reports for financial report requirment purpose...... Please suggest senario and how I over come this problem.

Hi Ranjan,
Booking of Administration cost center with primary posting, will reverse when we do PM order settlement to concern service cost center.
for example
A administration cost center incurred Rs. 100/- for (Salaries)
B Service cost center is settlement cost center of PM service Order Activity price is Rs.50/- which is based on administration cost center cost.
Now we go for cost center report, we mention A and B cost centers cost for the period A shows Rs.100/- with primary posting and B shows Rs. 50/- with secondary cost element as per our client requirement as per based on secondary posting, concern primary posting should reverse concern administrative cost center
I gone through the reports, primary not crediting the administrative cost center and secondary cost is debiting against service cost center.

Work Order & Activity Costs

Iu2019m extracting the underlying SAP tables so I can populate a Data Warehouse with Work Orders information and I have identified the following SAP tables:
u2022     Work Order tables: AFFL, AFKO, AFPO, AFRU, AFVC, AFVU, AFVV, AUFK, AUFM
u2022     Bill of Material tables: MAPL, MAST, MKAL, PLAS, PLKO, PLPO, STAS, STLO, STPO
u2022     Activity Cost tables: CKIS, CKIT, COST
u2022     Other tables of interest: CHRD, CRTX, CSLA, CSLT, CSSL, JSTO, PLMZ, RESB, S022
With the Work Order & Bill of Material tables I can identify the actual & target materials quantities & costs and I can also identify the actual & target activity / resource time spend. The problem I have is that I canu2019t detect the join between the Work Order tables and the Activity Cost tables, so there must be a table (or two) missing that creates this link.
Will you help?

Thank you for your assistance. Finally found the table that best answered my question in COEP.
Discovered lots of useful tables along the way.

Order settlement cost ( Activity cost) can we consider for financial report

I am in port Implemetation as per their senario financial reports based on cost center hierarchy,
for minisrial report requirement, they submitting Operational wise nothing but cost center heirarchy wise
for Pm order settlement Man hour cost based on kp26 computed cost converted actual at the time of confirmation. At the time of settlement to concern cost center is debited but primary cost booking for (man hour) salaries not deducting the primary cost element. Here is salaries and manhours both is apprearing in the cost center. My client requirement is based manour activity cost deducted in salary primary element, they want that process. After Order settlement based on amount we can deduct concern intial cost booking cost center to Order settle cost center.
Please suggest and PM order cost affect in cost center in primary booking and after order settlement
Please anyone resolve my issue
Clarification above issue
when we settle PM order Activtiy cost (Manhours) based on the salaried booked in primary cost element,we assume per hour man hour cost and specify in kp26 based on the activtiy cost planning system picks cost and at time of order settlement it will settle concern cost center.
intially we booked salaries in primary cost not thing but salaries a/c and once again we are settling the same salary assumption cost to cost center ...
when we go for cost center report Initial salary a/c booking Administrative cost center and now production cost center with activity cost with secondary cost element ....so problem is both cost centers are debiting for the same salaries( activity cost) but my client want cost center report all including primary and secondary cost element total balance.
Please resolve my problem it very critical

Dear Sudhakar,
salaries cost booked in administrative cost center with primary cost element salary a/c
but Activity type man hour is meant for per hour salary cost. we can specified in kp26
so when we take cost center report, we get salary amount and activity cost in admin cost center and product cost center for the same salary amount... for financial report requirment, if we use cost center report the salay amount appeared twice.
Please explain the activity cost against salay amount ..

Activity cost impact on Target Cost issue

Dear All,
Earlier this issue was posted in PP forum but didnt get the answer
Kindly follow the link.
[Activity cost impact on Target Cost issue;
Regards,
Shayam

Dear Shyam,
Normally the Total costs in activity price calculation (KP26) are taken and multiplied with quantity and charged off to the receivers irrespective of the type of costs i.e. whether it is a Fixed cost or variable cost. We don't have functionality to consider the Fixed costs to spread across the output and take the per unit value accordingly. The Fixed costs in kp26 are updated just to reflect the costs in the cost component structure as Fixed costs.
