Activity types&Cost Component Structure?

Hello All,
I would like to ask following**
*Can production cost centers have three activity types Produced Quantity, Machine Hour, Labor hour? Will the confirmation of these tree act types on work center form Production Cost of Material. Question is regarding line whish will have name Production Cost in Cost Component structure /OKTZ/*
Can only Primary Cost Component Split for Preliminary Costing be set and will it be visualized as itemization during precosting in CK11N? Which assignments regarding this have to be done?**
Best Regards,
Poly P**

Hi
I guess you need to educate your users a bit as to how the costing works as well as what is possible in SAP
Having these many itemizations is neither possble, nor recommended
The expenses like Discounts, Maintenance, Supporting costs etc are intended for analysis at Trial balance level.... These things are overheads from costing point of view.... So, you need to logically group them
Material consumption cost is very much possible provided the material components are part of the BOM
Direct Costs like Labor, electricity - you need to be create activity type for them.. ANd maintain a plan rate in KP26 for the same... You can not show original cost element in itemization for them
Other costs mentioned by you are indirect costs - Which are absorbed as overheads... Either as a % of other costs (Material + labor + electrivity) or as a rate per hr of Labor, etc

Activity Price in Cost Component Structure

Hi,
After costing run I have updated Activity Price in KP26.. I want to see latest activity price in Cost component structure e.g. Labour Activity and Machine Activity..cost for this a) Is it require re-costing run? b) how can we calculate activity price? e.g. total base qty/confirmed qty *no.of hrs. can you please corret me my formula I have maintain in KP26 capcity 500 and fixed price 10. I am able to see machine hrs. 6 in Resource data..
Thanks
Srinu

Hi Srinu,
Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
Use S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).

Standard Report for Materials Cost Component Structure - PO Condition Type

Dear experts,
We are using below cost component structure (CCS) for materials:
- Direct materials
- import duty
- import handling
In which, all those above CCS are achieved through below condition type in Purchasing Info Record. When doing the standard cost estimate through costing run, we have successfully grouped all those condition types into their respective CCS. The problem is, while executing the standard report of "result of costing run" (S_ALR_87099930), the sytem groups all those three CCS into CCS "Direct materials" only.
I have tried different standard layouts, but still got no way to show all those CCS separately in the standard report.
Please kindly suggest what approach should i take
Thank you very much
BR, Erwin

Hi
Check cost elements assigned to structure. For this go to transaction code OKTZ and select your CCS and double click on Assignment Cost Component-Cost element interval.

Cost component structure in CO-OM Reporting

Hi there,
we want to run cost center reports, that show us the balance on a cost center per primary cost element, after we have allocated some of the costs from the cost center into production orders.
I thought this can be achieved by having the tariffs we use for the internal activity allocation been broken into their cost component structure so that on the cost center, the respective primary cost elements are debited by the activity allocation.
However, this is not happening in my system. While the activity tariffs are correctly calculated with a component split (according the 1SKS-001 report), the standard cost center report still shows the debit on the cost center with the secondary cost element of the activity.
Does this mean I cannot see the component split of my activities in normal OM reporting?
Thanks
Kai

Hi
Make cost splitting structure and assigne to Production Cost Center.
Run Cost splitting KSS2 for cost splitting according to activity types.

Difference between cost component structure and cost component split

can anyone explain me the difference between cost component structure and cost component split with simple example
thanks
santosh

Hi ,
cost component structure
Definition
Number that identifies the structure.
Use
In Product Cost Controlling, the cost component structure determines how the results of material costing are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each material according to cost component (such as material costs, internal activities, external activities, and overhead). If the material is used in the production of another material, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material costs, internal activities, external activities, overhead, and so forth) remains in the system when the costs are rolled up.
In the cost component split, you also define the following for material costing:
Which part of the costs are fixed costs
Which costs are
cost of goods manufactured and what are sales and administration costs
Which costs are relevant for stock valuation, commercial inventory valuation and tax inventory valuation
When the cost component structure is assigned to the organizational units, you can specify that two cost component splits are created:
Main cost component split
This is the principal cost component split, meaning that it is used in the standard cost estimate, which can be used to update the material master. The main cost component split can be a cost component split for cost of goods manufactured or a primary cost component split.
Auxiliary cost component split
This can exist in addition to the main cost component split, and is not used in the standard cost estimate. It can be used for analysis purposes, in that it can be displayed with the cost estimate and passed on to Profitability Analysis.
In Cost Center Accounting, the cost component structure determines how the results of the activity price calculation are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each activity type of the cost center according to components (such as material costs and labor costs). If an internal activity allocation is carried out, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material, labor costs, and so forth) is retained at cost rollup.
If the cost component split is not to be retained, you can create a switching structure for the cost component structure for Cost Center Accounting. In the switching structure, you specify which sender cost component goes into which receiver cost component.
<b>require a cost component structure to calculate prices using cost component split.</b>
For each cost component structure you define a component such as energy, personnel, or raw materials. The components combine all costs occuring for a particular cost element area. In this way, you ensure greater cost transparency in activity price calculation when putting together the activity type prices - for example, it becomes easier to find how much of the activity price is taken up by the material costs.
In activity allocation, the cost component structure remains constant, meaning that the receiver takes on the sender cost elements and that the allocated costs are posted in the same cost components in the receiver as in the sender.
A cost component structure can have a maximum of 40 defined cost components.
Cost components are assigned to cost elements. You thereby determine which cost elements go to which rows in the structure, and how these components are updated in price calculation.
Hope ths helps

Error in product costing cost component structure with quantity...

Dear sap gurus
I am creating material cost estimation with quantity structure while doing in T CODE CK11N the following error is coming Message no. 213 Cost component structure z9 is not active. But I am not using the particular Cost component structure z9. I am using the standard Cost component structure 01 and I have activated it at OKTZ and the z9 is deactivated. Plz, tell me where I can fix this error
Awaiting for you kind reply.
Naveen

Hai MoH
Thanks for yuor reply, yes you are correct. i have checked in OKKN where i found that the cost component structure z9 is assigned to my co. code that is not mine i am using the standard cost componet structure. plz, tell me where i should go and change the assignment plz, give the T.CODE

New Cost Component Structure in new Costing Variant

Hi gurus,
i created a new costing variant (to be used for planned prices, for budget purposes), then a new cost component structure.
Now the system (transaction OKTZ) doesn't allow me to assign the new cost component structure to the new costing variant forcing me to mask the costing variant with ++++.
But the aim, for me, is just assigning the new cost component structure to the new costing variant only for a company code and only for a plant.
Does anybody know how i can reach the goal? Am i missing some step?
Thanks in advance for the collaboration,
Best regards
Enrico

Hi Utenza
You can very well achieve this
1. First of all ensure that a masked entry exists i.e. ++++ in Comp Code field, Plant Field, Costing variant Field and assign the Prmary cost comp str here
2. Then, coming to the new costing variant and new cost comp str,
a. Enter ++++ in the comp code field
b. Enter your plant name in the Plant Field (and not ++++)
c. Enter your new costing variant here.. (This should be the costing variant where costing type is not 01)
d. Assign your new cost comp structure here against this costing variant

Cost component structure in copa report

HI Gurus
1We are doing REM Process and costing variant "PREM"
2. We are going for moving average price for all Material type there is no standard cost estimate
3. My client want to see the cost component structure in copa reports like
sales
exice
ram material
packing material
labour
overehad
selling and distributioh overhead
I have done all necessary setting in costing key
I have done pa trasnfer structre also
But Cost component spill is not happening in copa report
Can we get cost component struture in copa report with moving average price if yes
Please advice me how to geneate the report
Thanks & Regards
KISHORE

Hi Aravind
Thanks for your reply, But in our business process there is not Standard cost estimation,bcoz, Price control in material master is MAP. Can we get cost component strudcture in copa if we are going for MAP in MM.
I have done all the Setting IN KE4R also. But i am unable to see the values in COPA report
Thanks

Cost component structure - cost elements for FERT and HALB (TC:OKTZ)?

Hi all,
our cost component structure has the following structure (TC: OKTZ):
1 Raw materials
2 Human ressources
3 Production
4 Material Overhead
5 Production overhead
6 external activity
(this settings are conform with SAP standard - copy from cost comp. structure 01)
To cost comp 1 "raw material" we assigend the relevant (primary) cost elements (consumption raw mat, e,g, steel, wood...).
My question is: In case we insert/post e.g. a semi-finished product to the production order from stock (accor. bill of material), where (in which cost comp.) do I have to assign the relevant cost element? I guess this should be the account "inventory change unfinished product? (maintain in TC: OBYC for transaction BSV according val. class)
Is it correct to assign this cost element to cost comp structure "raw material", because actually it is a semi finished product which is picked up from stock to convert /process further? To problem is, if this cost element is not assigned I get an error in CK11N/CK40N
I hope my wording is not to abstract...
Thanks in advance...
best Regards

Hi..
You don’t need to consider the cost element of production order settlement and production notification.
Cost component structure need the cost element of production order’s debit.

Cost element is not assigned to cost component structure

Dear Team,
While doing the settlemnt through KO88 system is showing the message like below
Cost element 433001 is not assigned to a cost component in CostCompStruct Z1
     Message no. MLCCS 010
Diagnosis
     You have activated the actual cost component split.
     No cost component has been assigned to cost element 433001 origin group
     in cost component structure Z1 for chart of accounts XXX. The system is
     unable to assign the value to a cost component.
System Response
     You cannot carry out posting.
Procedure
     Check whether for this operation the value to be posted is to be
     assigned to this cost element.
User has done tchnically completed from CO side .But system is showing the open status in FI.
So we have suggested to the user to do settlemt through KO88 system is showing the above message .Half of the production orders we can able to close through Ko88. Some of the PO we are facing the above issue.The concern GL account showing by the system is maintained as a sundry receivables a/c.
Please advice how to proceed further.
Thanks for the consideration.
Regards,
Suma

Dear Sir,
System is showing the GL account is not relating the cost element a/c ,The concern account belongs to Sundry receivables account.
The configuration is done correctly with all expenses GL a/c in OKTZ as well WIP accounts assigned corrctly in OKG8.                How the system is showing this account which i am not understanding.
Please advice to resolve.
Thanks for the consideration.

Activity types cost Elements not reflecting in Cost Centre Report.

Hello SAP Gurus,,
1. Here we are facing one issue in Zreport. total is not matching, compare with KSB1.
Values are more in Zreport, in other words activity type cost elements are not reflecting in Zreport, but it reflecting in KSB1.
example: flow from PM module.
Actually we had used logic based on the Cost Centres, in that cost centre by taking Object number and it passes to COEP table, then we are getting values as same as KSB1.
As per investigation i found that the object number is differ from COEP table and CSKS table.
Exapmple : 1410000 object number in CSKS table, 1410000EL in COEP table, thats why in Zreport these values are not reflecting.Finally our requirment is , Zreport values should same as KSB1 vlaues.
2. We need same functionality as same as KSB1 for match code or drop down menu functionality for Cost Centre Group and Cost Element Group, but while user wants select from match code or drop menu (F4), as of now i didnt given any logic to abap for match code functionality or drop down menu (F4),so in this case which logic or table i have to use.
So please give me inputs or logic how to over come the above points.
Regards,
Raj.

The OBJNR field structure is as follows :-
AABBBBCCCCCCCCCCDDDDDD
AA = object type eg. KS (cost center)
BBBB = controlling area
CCCCCCCCCC = cost center
DDDDDD = activity type
Based on the structure, you will be able to filter the relevant cost center/activity types. You can also use other fields eg. cost element, partner object, source object, value type, etc. to get your desired figures as per KSB1.

Reg:Cost Component Structure

Hi Guru's
In the Cost Compenent Structure T.Code:OKTZ I Select Primay Cost Component Split,
I Excuted Two Standard Cost Estimates one is with out Primary Cost Component Split, and Secound one with Primary Cost Component Split
But I can't see the Difference for both Standard Cost Estimates....
where we can see the Diffierence exactly for with and without Primary Cost Component Split...

Hi Srinu,
Go through the following thread to understand the purpose of Primary Cost Component Split...
Re: Primary cost component split
If you have understood the details from the above thread, go through the following...
If you want to go for Primary Cost Component Split, the following sequence MUST be followed...
1. Activate Primary Cost Component Split in OKTZ,
2. Mention your Cost Component Structure name (for ex: 01) in your Version Maintenance in OKEQ
( In OKEQ, select your Version, Go to Controlling Area settings, go in to Settings for Fiscal Year. In "Price Calculation" Tab, you will find the field for Cost Component Structure).
3. Upload the Cost Center Planning Data using this Version.
Now, what you might have tested is that, you have done the Cost Center Planning as usual ( I guess you missed the above sequence, especially point no.2) and you run the Std Cost Estimate. After that, you have Activated the Primary Cost Component Split and you might have run the Std Cost Estimate. Obviously, you will not find any difference in that case.
I have used Primary Cost Component Split in couple of my implementations and it worked fine.
Revert back if you need further explanation in this regard....

How to Maintaining Cost component under cost component structure?

Hi Gurus,
How to Maintaining Cost component under cost component structure?
I am using OKTZ trx for cost element and cost component maintaiance but when i am trying to maintain the cost element and corresponding cost comp , i am not able to find a cost comp on F4 help.
Plz let me know , ur guidance will be rewarded ..

Using command:
ASSIGN COMPONENT idx OF STRUCTURE struc TO <fs>.
For example:
DESCRIBE FIELD pi_output TYPE pi_output COMPONENTS lv_columns. "For number of columns
DO lv_columns TIMES.
ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF
STRUCTURE (name of structure) TO <l_fs_output>. "<l_fs_output> - field of structure
DESCRIBE FIELD <l_fs_output>... "with other options.

Can it be a seperate cost component structure for each company code?

Company Code No 1 Setting:
Company Code XXXX with Chart of accounts X(Quantity + Value updation in material type)
In the existing company code(XXXX) ,Cost component structure is defined as
All company code---->All Plants----> All Costing Variants -
>Cost component Structure AA
Company Code No 2 Setting:
Scenario:
Now I am creating a new company Code YYYY) which is is allowed for quantity updation alone and trying to create a product cost collector to carry out Production confirmation through Repetetive manufacturing (."Error = Cost object component split costed with Value of Zero"
Can it be possible to have a seperate cost component structure for each company Code?
Company Code YYYY with Chart of accounts Y which is different from Company code 1(Quantity alone in material type)
If possible ,Can anybody provide a procedure to do the configuration of Cost Component structure

Hello,
As I understand your question, All the thing which are releted to costing are done only at the controlling area level not at company code.
As your req diffrent cost componenet for diffrent company code is depend up on how you define the controlling area.
Hope it will clear you

Cost Component structure field and table names

Hey all,
i need to code a BADI to push value of one column in cost component structure to another column in ccs for only order settlements..
any idea how to do this??
i am very new to abap please take it easy on ur answer..
i coulndt even find in which table and fields these values are stored...
thank you

I have an OSS note, it tells you step by step how to config the badi u need.. but does not mention about the logic u ll use.. it is up to you....
so i need to find the field names and tell take these and post them to these columns...
