Actual Cost Machine hours is zero (After confirmation)

Dear Guru,
We are implementing PP module and product costing. We enter the budget with activity type in KP06 & KP26. After confirmation, the actual cost in machine hours is zero but not in electricity or steam. Why the actual cost is zero in activity type machine (we enter the actual qty machine hours) ...
May you assist me to solve this issue
Thanks
Maju S

Dear Umapathi G & Shaubhik
Thanks for your replay.I have checked the Control key is marked for costing and the cost center is assigned correctly and we have executed the KPSI before and I found the fixed price for Machine hours in tcode KSBT and cost center is not locked for posting secondary CE
For additional information, we have 3 activity type, Machine hour, Electricity and steam. The actual cost for electricity and steam are not problem, only for actual cost activity machine is zero. The issue only for activity type for machine.
May you have me to give the other solution to be checked
Thanks for your replay and I am really appreciate it

Finding actual costs of hours booked in CAT2

Hello experts,
I am trying to locate the actual costs per hour that will be posted when a person enters time on a timesheet in CATS with a known activity type and cost centre.
I believe the formula in the work centre calculates 'planned' costs - but I am looking to find the actual costs from a costing sheet.
I hope this is simple enough
Many thanks

Hi,
Activity hourly rates, you can see in COST table. As for CATS cost, you can see against relevant cost object. For example, if you charged your time against a newtork activity then you can see this actual cost in COSS table against the network activity object number.

Costs in Cost Center are not zero after Revaluation at Actual Prices

I executed:
1. KSS2 - Splitting (I use a Cost Center ABC and all Cost Elements in the configuration)
2. KSII - Price Calculation
3. CON2 - Collective Processing
4. I see the report KSB1 of the Cost Center ABC, but Costs are not zero after revaluation. For example
Cost Element 61:                        $   1000
Cost Element 62:                        $   2000
Activity Allocation 98:               $ -2800
Revaluation at actual price 98: $ -100
TOTAL:                                      $ 100
Total must be $ 0.00
We work with thousands of product orders in a month. Is it possible that the problem was for rounding?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Ajay,
I checked OKEQ configuration, it's equal that you mentioned.
I have seen that Revaluation registers are using other Exchange Rate. In OB08 Exchange Rate P is 2.80 ( 1 USD --> 2.80 PEN)
How ever those revaluation registers are using ERate of 2.14 (1 USD --> 2.14 PEN)
Why revaluation registers use other Exchange Rate? Is this the problem that Cost Center is not zero?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Fusion Projects Actual Costs dashboard is Updating even after Receipt is Made

Hi Everyone,
I am working on Fusion PPM Release 9.
I have created a PO & Approved it Then "Process Commitment Transactions" & "Update Project Performance Data" Scheduled Process were run.
At the dash Board i am able to see the commitmemt Cost.
Not i have made receipt, Then "Transfer Transactions From Receiving To Costing" & "Create Entries for Receipt Accounting" & "Import & Process Cost Transactions" & "Update Project Performance data"were run but still dashboard actuals were not updated
Any help regarding above issue is Appreciable
Thanks
Shaan

Thanks for your reply Sudhir.
You also re-iterated all the same things I said in my previous post. That is, when you create an Order and assign it to a WBS which has been budgeted for, the WBS controls the budget for the Order. That is all true.
However, my current scenario is:
(a) If I create a PR or PO for the Order from IW32 - Availability control for the Order works perfectly.*
(b) If I create a PR or PO through me51n or me21n, which account assignment F (order) and assign the same Order to it - Availability Control DOES NOT work.
My availability control settings have '++' in the Tolerance limit settings to ensure all transaction groups are considered. In any case, the other troubling thing is, when you create the PO or PR directly (me51n/me21n), the cost does not even show up on the Budget report (s_alr_87013558) until after goods receipt.
Have you seen this scenario before?
Thanks in advance

Actual Costs are not captured in Production Order

Hi Experts,
I'm not able to see the actual costs for a production order. We made the cost estimate for a material for this month. We created the production order and partial confirmation also done. In production order i'm able to see the target cost only. I'm not able to see the actual cost for the production order after confirmation.
In routing costing relevancy tick mark is available and in work center i maintained the cost center and activity types also.
Can you please share anything is missed for getting actual cost for a production order.
Naren

dear friend,
you would finally confrim order (set CNF status) and try again.
also chack out you master data:
-material master (possible Acc1-2 and Cost1-2)
-work center (say,did you set a valid Cost center there?), are activities set up? usage? validity?..
-routing (header data and control key at item level)
check out your control key against the 'Cnf' and 'PrtCnf' checkboxes...
good luck!

CProjects Actual Cost = 0 after Settlement Run

Hi Gurus
After running Transaction CJ8G (Settlement Run), then I log into cProjects, locate my Project and go to the Accounting Tab, I click on Calculate, then Save, then I return to the cProjects Dashboard
When I look at the Actual Costs Value it is zero.
What do I need to do to prevent this from happening?
My overall process is.
Approve Time: CATS_APPR_LITE
Send Confirmed Time to cProjects     SE38 - (DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF)
Transfer Timesheet Data to Controlling     CAT7
Log in to cProjects
     Locate the Project in question and go into Accounting
     Click on Calculate & Save
     Click on Home          (Actual Costs > 0)
Generate Settlement Rules     CJB1
Execute Settlement Run     CJ8G
Log in to cProjects
     Locate the Project in question and go into Accounting
     Click on Calculate & Save
     Click on Home          (Actual Costs = 0)
Many Thanks in advance

Hi Panduranga,
The Badi OLR3_COSTS introduced with the note
1095514 enable you manipulate the costs showed in the dashboard. Please take a look the longtext of the note and implement (very simple) the codes.

Filtering only the Actual cost line items resulted by confirmations in DP91

Hi,
I have DIP profile and in that Material Determination Charactersitic is Activity Type.
In DP91 system is pulling the following cost line items
1.ACTUAL cost Line items resulted due to confirmations of operations and in this ACTIVITY TYPE will be there.
2.ACTUAL cost Line items resulted due to OVERHEAD and in this ACTIVITY type will not be there.
Since Activity type is not there for the OH line items,its throwing Material Determination Error.
One option is filter the line items based on Cost element category using exit . But is there is any option in standard way for not considering the OVERHEAD line items in DP91 RUN. Pl suggest.
Regards
SB

SB,
You'll need to add a Characterisitic to your DIP Profile which allows to to selectively filter the overheads.
Try the cost element (if its different from the confirmation c/e)

Actual cost is not seen in the variance calculation KKS2

Hi
I   did variance calculation of a Production order ( after telco) . Its a co - product.   The target cost , actual cost and allocated cost   fields are present after execution.   Now the actual cost field is   blank and so   the variance is not correct.
Pl advise on why the actual cost field is not populated with the cost.
Thanks
kamala

Hi
KOB1 shows the actual cost . I do TECO for the PO and calculate Variance for co-product material, and the actual cost is showing at zero. But   then i do settlement KO88, and the   variance amount gets posted CORRECTLY and FI document is generated.
So why is the ACTUAL COST field   ' ZERO'    in KKS2, but    KO88   settlement shows the variance amount.
It there some different logic to do variance calculation for   PO   involving main product which have co-products in it.
Thanks for any inputs

PLANNED AND ACTUAL COST IN A PROCESS ORDER

From where the planned cost of material and activity types in cost itemizationafter creation flow ?From where the actual cost of a material and activity types in cost analysis of process order after confirmation flow?

You may be knowing you give Costing Variants ( Both actual as well as Planned ) in Order type. These Costing variants contains Valuation variants which says which costs are to be taken while creation ( for Planned Cost ) and Actual cost ( while confirming and Moving Goods) to be calculate. These Variants decides mode of Cost Flows.
Now, Data in Planned costs are Standard Cost figures or Current prices for material or Planned Prices of Activities.
As far as Actual costs are considered it may be the price for the consumed quantity @ the moving average price of the day or activity price for the qty. consumed which include up planned consumption too.....

Actual Cost when using Valuated Stock

Hi All,
I am using valuated stock in my project. The process would be,
Reservation -> MRP Run -> PR -> PO -> GR -> GI.
In this scenerio,I am expecting the actual cost, when I do the goods issue. However, the actual cost comes to project when I do the Goods Receipt (GR).
Where the setting is missing?
Regards

Actual Cost you are seeing while doing GR is only a statistical postings, because you have maintained statistical cost element for the inventory GL.
The real actual cost will hit project only after GI.

Target Cost in the settled process order become zero after cost deletion

Dear all,
User has standard cost estimates created in Jan 2010 that valid until the end of 2010 for every material in the system. user created a process order in April 2010. Target cost of the order was created based on the standard cost estimate and recipes as well as order qty. The order was also confirmed and settled in April 2010 without problem.
However, after I deleted all old costing estimates before I did a costing run for all materials in May 2010, the old order was resettled and all Target cost is removed from the order. I guess system try to look at April costing estimate but it is not there since it was deleted before I created the new costing estimate in May. Therefore, all varainces are throwed into remaining variances since the target cost become zero.
Other than mark the settled order for deletion or keep all old costing estimates, I am just wondering is anyway in the configuration to prevent the system to recaculate the target cost again for the settlement so I can avoid the problem happens?
Thanks.

Hi,
Target costs are only calculated after goods movements have occured on the order, the Target Costs are then calculated during the Variance calculation.
Target costs will only be calculated after the first goods receipt has been posted to the order. Also you have to ensure that the information to calculate target costs exists on the system in particular in OKV6.
This estimation is based on the customizing for the Target cost version in transaction OKV6 as in turn will the "real" calculation of the Target costs via the variance calculation.
So in OKV6 the Target cost will be based on preliminary costing on the order, an alternative cost estimate or the current standard cost estimate. Importantly if the choosen option is not fulfilled e.g. no current standard cost estimate, the target costs will not be predicted or calculated.

Actual cost is coming zero in service order

Hi experts
I am newer in CO.i can not recognise that "Actual cost is coming zero in service order".Please let me know that sollution
thanks in advance
sachin

Have the cost data been archived? If not, please check configurations and whether there is do actual goods issue or activity confirmation posted. Check plan and actual costing variant under tab page 'Control', BOM structure under tab page 'Components' and Routing structure under tab page 'Operations'. And if any goods issue or activity confirmation to the order, cost can be analysed under tab page 'Cost'.

Actual costs after settlement

Logically should actual costs be displayed in cost reports after settlement?
In my case line item actuals shows the costs as zero as PRE settlement done to cost center. But in that case should the value be still displayed as actual costs.
In other systems here the value is still displayed though it is settled to an AuC or CTR. What could be the reason?

You may reverse the manual posting to asset (credit posting with Dr/Cr indicator of C) and then perform settlement via CJ88. I hope i was able to understand your query correctly and answer it appropriately.

Actual Activities not appearing after Confirmation

Hi,
I got a situation where in we are using CO11 for confirmation.
We have 3 Activities in the Std Values viz, Machine, Labour and Actual Weight
After entering the Yield Qty and pressing Actual Data, Machine and Labour are appearing, but Actual Weight is not Appearing.
Necessary settings in OPK4 and OPK0 are already in place.
Please guide.
Thanks in advance,
Harris

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt response.
- System is calculating the Activities as required in the Production Order which i can see in the details information of the Operation.
- They are using CO11 for the confirmation.
- There is no Manual entry at the time of Confirmation.
- In OPK0 Default Confirmation Profile SAP001 is being ticked marked.
- Default Values , Qty and Service in OPK0
Procedural Steps for CO11:
- I run CO11
- Enter Production Order No. and give enter
- Here it shows the Yield Qty
- Then i press ACTUAL DATA icon and i get only the Machine and Labour Activity, but not the ACTUAL WEIGHT.
Procedural Steps for CO11N:
- i also tried running it in CO11n
- Here i enter the production order no. on the time ticket screen and give enter
- Here too only Machine and Labour is seen, Actual Weight is still missing.
- Then i once again hit ENTER and i am getting the Actual Weight Now.
- But as soon as i press Actual Data button, the Actual Weight disappears and the field appears Blank.
It is very strange, but this is the problem.
Please guide
Thanks and regards,
Harris
