Activity Type Budgeting
Hi!
My client is asking for activity type budgeting in order to see the variances between actual & budgeting in production for activity types only?
is it possible?
I know cost centre budgeting, funds budgeting, internal order budgeting
regs,
ramesh
Hi Ramesh
Yes, its possible
You need to enter Plan Act Qty in KP26.... The actual activity qty confirmed in Prod orders will also get posted against the cost center...
You can then have a comparison of the Plan vs Actual activity qty in S_ALR_87013611...

Blocking of Cost centre and activity type
Dear all,
Please tell me how to block cost centres and activity types which will no longer be used
best rgds,
ManojHi,
There are two ways .
If you wish to use the cost center number for any other cost center , then you need to delete the cost center by KS04 & you need to mention the future period for which the same should deleted, normally, starting would be 1st day of next year to 31.12.9999
Keep in mind, cost center can only be deleted , if no data (Actual/Plan/reversal) is posted in it. You may do it , before starting next year's budget processing.
If you wish to just block the same , lock Actual primary/Secondary & Plan primary/Secondary in the control tab.

What is Cost Center and Activity type
Can any one make me understand Conseptually, what is Cost Center and Activity Type
<b>Cost Center:</b>A cost centers is an organizational unit within a controlling area that represents a clearly delimited area of responsibility where costs are monitored against a budget.
Cost centers represent areas of responsibility (management areas) that generate and influence costs.
Cost centers are the locations at which the costs are incurred
<b>Activity types</b> describe activities produced by a cost center. They are measured in units of time or quantity. Activity quantities are valuated using a price.
For example: the maintenance department provides maintenance service at a labor hourly rate of SAR 2000 or USD 1000.
When the activities produced by a cost center are used by other cost centers, orders or projects, this means that the resources of the sending cost center are being used by the receiver objects.
By recording the planned and actual quantities consumed, you reallocate cost incurred on the sender into the receivers.
Activity Types can be grouped to facilitate reporting and cost allocation.
Hope it clears your basic doubt on Cost center and Activity type
Assign points if helpful.

Fixed and variable prices of an activity type understanding
Hi,
To my understanding the fixed portion of the price will not be multiplied by the quantity and the variable price will be. However, i tested the cost estimates and it looks like both the fixed price and variable price is summed up together to get the total price and this total price is multiplied with the quantity.
In this case what is the purpose of having fixed price and variable price in the activity type?Fixed price, is the fixed costs - I usually see it in relation to Overhead..
Fixed costs remain, whether you manufacutre or not.
Say you are deciding whether to out-source an assembly, If you outsource, VARIABLE cost will be saved, Material, labor for that assembly, Overhead representing fringes for that labor, the electricity to run that specific machine. However, you will still have fixed costs of: Management Salary (although some of that can be variable); insurance on the building; heating and cooling for the building; realestate taxes.
If the cost to make "in house" is 150 each and the vendor is going to charge you 100, thi is only a true saving if your fixed costs are less than 50.
SAP allows you to separate fixed and variable costs so that you do make/buy analysis, budgeting, etc
Hope this helps

Revaluation of Activity type is not getting updated in Production Order
Hi,
I have run KSII , for actual activity price calculation. After this , the revalution of production orders was done.
But I am not finding any entry in Production order with a value of variance between Actual Price and Plan Price of the Activity type.
It sould come in the production order.
What can be the reason?
In OKEQ, for the Version '0' and the fiscal year, Revaluation has the entry ' 1.Own Business Transaction'. I hope this is correct.
But still the revalaution line item is not showing in Production Order.
Please help.
regards
KamleshHi Paolo,
Yes, MFN1 ran perfectly and I am also able to see the details in the screen.
My concern is, this revaluation should also have affect on Production order, thats what not happening.
Or let me know where can I see the affect of revaluation on Production orders.

Confirmation of activity types in CO11N
Dear Experts,
I have a small issue, while confirmation of production order in CO11N the activity type for the actual quantity is confirming but our requirement is that if we are confirming the half quantity means partial quantity, activity should also be confirmed for the half quantity.
Thanks & Regards,
Alok TiwariDear Bhupendra Singh,
First of all thank you very much for your reply.
I am trying to do the way you said but it is not happening.
My requirement is if the production order quantity is 10 each and planned activity is 10 min for labor and if i want to confirm partially 5 each then the activity to confirm for labor should automatically propose me 5 min.

Confirmation of activity type in Process order -Impact in FI.
Dear All,
On doing a confirmation of a activity type for a process/ Production order - values get posted to secondary cost element which has been assigned to a acitivity type. This means only a impact in controlling but not in FI
How woould the booking happens in FI ?is it not required to book in FI, if yes, why.
Please suggest.
Thanks.Hi Daya
1. You can calculate activity price for plan in KSPI and for actual KSII for respective CCtr and activity type...but some times people manually update price at KP26 directly which in my opinion is not right way because price is either more or less than the real calculation in KSPI and KSII...
2. However in your case price is directly updated in KP26 against activity type..when confirmation is done in order this rate * activity qty is your value posted in order level and at the same time respective CCtr is also credited by this amount which you can see in CCtr report
Example: CCtr XXXX01
Activity type 999999
Sec cost Element for activity type 999999 (43 cat)
Suppose you have booked FI entries for some expenses like Salary in F-02/FB50...against CCtr XXXX01 So your CCtr XXXX01 is debited by Salary amount and this amount will be absorbed in product through activity for which you need activity price and confirmation.
FI entry is booked your expense in GL a/c Salary and same time debited your CCtr through CE salary....Now when you charging this expense in product through prod order you are doing it through confirmation of activity qty which in turn calculating value by taking price from KP26 and qty from confirmation.

"Activity type 420 1002 2393074 in the fiscal year 2010 not valid" PM03
We have an issue with the PM03 for the year 2010. "When the scheduler tries to schedule the pm..He gets an error "Activity type 420 1002 2393074 in the fiscal year 2010 not valid" The planner will close the work order then re-open it. The error will go away, but when the work order is scheduled there is 0 hours scheduled.. This will be a big issue if there are not any hours assigned to work orders.
Can you help me?
Thanks!Davison,
Please maintain the prices for the activity type, Cost center combination for the fiscal year 2010 using transaction KP26. The log generally disappears after you save and leave the transaction. You will see the log again only when you reschedule the order and are in the same transaction.
Also check whether "scheduling" has been activated for the PM03 control key for scheduling to be taken into consideration for the operation.You can view the same by using the drop down for the control key on the transaction.

Multi Resource Scheduling MRS - How to exclude certain Maint Activity Types
is there a way to exclude orders that have a specific maintenance activity type. We have standing work orders that in reality we should not have appear on the planning board. Well, we really shouldn't have any standing orders but we do.
Has anyone had this issue and been able to solve it. thanks, LindaWhile a lot of MRS configuration includes maintenance activity type as a way to refine the circumstances in which something occurs (e.g., stretched assignments), that is not the case for defining which demands will be brought into MRS. However, while not positive, I believe "BAdI: Integration of Maintenance/Service Order with MRS (ERP)" can be used for this purpose.

and buzei = gt_gl_detail-buzei "Doc item no. from G/L acct detail
and belnr = gt_gl_detail-belnr "Doc no. G/L acct detail

Can advise please how to make it faster. My internal table (GT_GL_DETAIL) has over 100000 records. ? thanks.I did a SQL trace, and saw that tables CSLA, CSSL, COKL and COKA are being hit with the values I entered inthe Activity type in transaction FB50.
Still not clear but where it gets stored. If in any of these tables, how do I get the object key? -

I am facing a problem with Visual Studio. Following what I did:
Copy and modify a workflow in sharepoint designer 2013
Import the generated files (xoml, rules, config) in a Visual Studio 2012 module
Build
I cannot build nor package the solution, getting the "The root activity type is invalid" error.
I read a lot of forum but I didn't figure out how to solve the issue.
Any help is really appreciated.
DarioHi Dario,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you imported SharePoint Designer reusable workflow into Visual Studio 2012.
Please check your process per the article below, compare the result.

Hi all,
In PS we donu2019t capture any cost. In such case, While entering timesheet, the system through an error message, to enter sender Activity type and it is not allowing to enter timesheet.
Now, what should be done to skip entering activity type and enter timesheet without entering activity type?
I guess it is controlled through work center, by not maintaining costing tab, but the system does not allow to save the work center without entering the cost center under costing tab.
Please suggest, in entering time sheet without activity type
Thanks,
ChandruHi,
Go to --> SPRO --> Cross Application Components --> Time Sheet --> Settings for all User Interfaces --> Time Recording --> Choose Fields -->Data Entry section --> Activity types
Double click and in reference to data entry profiles we can restrict the entry for the activity type whether it is required / Display / Hide / Input.
Check and confirm whether the problem is solved

PM Order Confirmation using Personnel's Cost Center and Activity Type
Hi All,
Is it possible to have PM Order confirmation (IW41) using Cost Center and Activity type from Personnel instead of default from Work Center? If it is, can it be done with some configuration or user exit? Please advise. Thank you.
DaiHi friend,
Order confirmation will be done for order operations.While doing confirmation we post the actual work done by the repective work center and respective activity type assigned to the same workcenter.
But these activity types are assigned to cost center for cost calculation.confirming the respective operation in maintenance order through workcenters gives the report of planned work and actual work done by the respective workcenter.
We cannot confirm the operation using costcenter and activity type directly through transaction IW41.
If you want to develop new confirmation screen and making confirmation of the respective order operation with only costcenter and activity type fields, you can do it .
