Actual cost of material in COPA

Hi Team,
We have implemented PP, CO & COPA  our client has the requirement to see the actual cost of material in COPA as per their requirement we designed the KE30 report as product wise profitability report in that report we used the record types B( direct postings from FI), C(Order settlement), D(over head cost) from the copa assessment cycle & F ( SD billing).
1) Is it possible to see the actual cost of material( Including activity cost) in copa.
2) If it is possible please advise.

Hello
It is not possible to get the actual cost of the material in COPA. Actual cost can only be derived if you implement material ledger.
However in COPA we may come close to actual cost to some extent. The following configuration needs to be done:
1. Run standard cost estimate every month so that the price reflects the most recent material prices.
2. Define assessment cycles for auxiliary cost centers (whose cost should form part of inventory cost) to production cost centers.
3. Configure for splitting and revaluation at actual price.
4. Take the production variances to COPA.
5. Create a report to show the standard cost and variances.
One of the difference is that the total standard cost is for the quantities sold during the period however the variances will be for the quantities produced during the period.
Another difference is that the unabsorbed overheads could not be allocated to individual materials.
Hope this helps.

  • Actual cost of product in COPA

    Dear all,
    I am relatively new to COPA functionality.
    The requirement is that actual cost of product should be reflected in COPA and not the planned.
    Kindly give me the background also, as in the integration of COPC and COPA.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Sudhakar is completely right in his comments. But, I would not just accept that actual costing is not active, so you have to find a solution without it. Your requirement is a good reason to activate actal costing, and calls for it.
    The way SAP foresees to bring actual costs into CO-PA would be:
    Activate material ledger / actual costing

  • Posting Actual Costs at Material Level

    Hi All
    For our standard costs we will have BOM Components, Activities from Routings and additive costs. We also have activated Material Ledger and will use it for Actual Costing, the objective being that each and every actual cost will be brought to the SKU level. For BOM components and activities that is no problem since it will be done through settlement.
    However for cost components that have additive costs how do we settle them to the material ledger? Do we need to do MR22 for difference between standard and actual? Is there a way to do this through a template allocation or some other allocation method?
    Thank you

    Hi
    Lets assume, you have Std cost of 100 USD involving Material + Labor and an additive cost of 10 USD entered manually from CK74N...
    During production order processing - You would issue material components and confirm Labor hrs... Say, this amounts to 120 USD as against the std cost of 100 USD...
    However, in prod orders, there will be nothing posted against the additive std cost of 10 USD... If you wish, you need to post it either through template allocation from some cost centers or use some assessment cycle or transfer manually from KB11N or use a costing sheet

  • Release actual cost in Material Ledger

    Dear Experts
    I want to copy the actual cost of period 1 to be standard of period 2.
    I did the following activities:
    1- I run all steps for standard cost estimates for year 2012 and released the standard cost estimate for periods 1-12.
    2- On January 2012, I did all steps in CKMLCP up to post closing. This is done mid night 12:01 (01.02.2012).
    3-  I run marking CKMPRPN, I checked "Manual Date" 01.02.2012 and in "Rule Maintenance" I selected "Perioic unit price in previous period. There was no error but when I check MM03 for a specific material there is nothing in coulumn "Future Price"
    4-  I run CKME and got error  "C+811"
    Please advise how to copy actual PUP to be standard of next period.
    Regards
    Ahmed Zain

    Dear Maria
    Taking all the above contribution in consideration, they are valuabe. Yours has hit my direct problem. I need the following calrifications, please :
    1-  In CKMLCP is it a must that marking and release of PUP takes place after "Post Closing Step" or I need to do them right away after "Revaluation of consumption step" , then do post closing? in other words, does the PUP will be calcuated after this step b"Revaluation"  and can be subject to carry forward for next period. If this is true then we can select manually the next period and do the post closing.
    2-  My understanding to note 666681 is that, by the end of current period "Feb, 2012", I do  all CKMLCP steps up to post closing, then I mark PUP - select manual date 01.03.2012  ( correct me whether it will be 01.03.2012 or 01.04.2012). If I check MM03 for any material I can see PUP in Future colunmn in costing 2 view. By the end of Period 3, I will run CKME for the marked PUP and so on...
    Your torsh is required to throw more light in this corner, please
    Thanks

  • COPA Costing key for actual cost component split

    Hi,
    I would like to allow the users to specify different period/year in the following screen every month when they do the COPA revaluation. However i noticed this screen is part of customization and cannot be changed by the users without a transport. As such how can we allow the users to change the period/year by themselves every month?

    Hi Sanjay Ram,
    Whatever the marked one i.e. period/year is used especially when you want to consider the PUP or actual cost the material for that specific period only. As you know it can not be changed in every period.
    So, for that purpose only we have the above one i.e. period a/c to line item, by this system is going to pick the PUP or actual cost of the specific period for which the line item has taken place (the line item that may be billing or settlement)

  • Actual costs for laboratory exams / Material Ledger

    Hi Experts
    I have a doubt for actual cost scenario for laboratory industry.
    My  background is for product cost for consumer goods, specially food companies, so this is a new segment for me.
    This laboratory has baseline version, no service/production order, it means all material consumption goes to cost center and they use activities to send costs from cost center to cost center.
    They have BOM for all exams (finished product). They only run CK40N for standard costs but they don't have actual cost (material ledger - CKMLCP) implemented.
    This is the issue: they want actual cost for every exam in the way we have for consumer goods industry.
    So they can analyse profitability for product (exam) x customers.
    I wounder if the same industry actual cost scenario can be applied to this business segment or if there is a special SAP solution for this segment.
    The main issue is the stock, there is no stock, it´s service. I believe we could change the account in BSX key (OBYC) for some P&L accounts but I´d like your opinion/experience.
    I hope you help me to  clarify these doubts
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Rupesh,
    I don't think so there will be any std.report in PS module to show plan vs actual cost of material component.
    For looking plan vs actual cost in PS having many std reports but they don't show for material component.
    I think for this you need to develop a Z report which will show Plan vs Actual cost of material component.
    In CN52N report (Component overview report) you can add two fields one is for plan cost & other for actual cost.This can be one of possibilty you can try.Otherwise develop a new Z report for the same.
    For this you need to take yr abaper's help.

  • Actual Costing/Material Ledger (CO-PC-ACT) - Actual costing

    Hello,
    I have same problem with actual costing in material Ledger.
    When I perform the actual costing a price differences that belongs to materials (orders) which at the end of the period are WIP, remain not split and don not book them on Accruals and defer.acct(material ledger) (OBYC - Transaction LKW).
    Moreover,  in the following month, system does not taking into account the value.
    Does anybody had similar problem or  knew how tu handle it?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Actual Cost of Product with Price control "S"

    Dear Gurus,
    Is there any report available where we can know the Actual Costs of Materials with Price Control "S".
    In the material master field the actual cost in the "Moving Price Tab" of the material with Price Control "S" is available, but is there any report available for plant level?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amit Dhanurdhari.

    Hi Amit,
    -- Under Standard Costing, you value your inventory at Standard Costs and any variances in Production Process will be settled to Price Difference Account. You will not be able to find out actual cost per unit. In Multi-level BOM scenario under Standard Costing (CO-PC), variances don't get rolled-up to the next level, only costs get rolled-up.
    -- Under Actual Costing - Material Ledger, You will be able to find out the Actual Cost per Unit. Variances get rolled-up to the next level.
    To explain difference between Standard Costing in CO-PC and Material Ledger briefly....
    You have given Price Indicator as "S" in the material master of "X" material (semi finisher or finished) and you are doing Standard Cost Estimate for arriving at Standard Cost per tonne. Let's say, the Standard Cost per tonne is Rs.1000/-
    Now, when you created production order for 10 tonnes and received output of 10 tonnes (GR). But the total cost incurred on that production order is Rs.1100/-. In this situation, actual cost per tonne is Rs.110.
    But, because you are following Standard Costing, When you post GR against this Production Order, inventory will be posted at Standard cost only, i.e., Rs.1000/-. and the balance of Rs.100 will be posted to Price Difference Account. (and parallally the variance of Rs.100/-) will flow to COPA.
    So, it is clear that, though, at Production Order level you can see the actual cost, at "material" level, you will not be able to see the actual cost per tonne.(as long as you are using only Product Costing and Standard Costing)
    Alternatively, if you maintain Price Indicator as "V", you will able to get the Actual Cost per tonne at material level, but there will be no scope for establishing standard cost and comparison with actual thereof.
    But, the same is possible if you are using Material Ledger (CO-ML). If Material Ledger is active, you will be maintaining "S" in the material master, still, the variances will be settled inventory and you will be able to get the actual cost per tonne. (bothe Standard cost estimate, actual cost per tonne will be possible).
    Pls revert back for further explanation

  • Actual Cost of finished goods in MIGO

    Hi,
    The value of Finished material in FI Document generated in MIGO takes the (Goods Receipt Quantity) X (Planned/Moving average Price from material master), Where as it should take the Total Actual Price calculated after Order Confirmation Based on Actual Material Purchase Price & Actual Activity Posting Value.
    For example:
    Present scenario
    Material-> MIGO QTY>Moving Avg Price -->MIGO FI Document Value
    Finished> 1000  EA> Rs. 10/ EA--
    >Rs. 10,000=00
    Required Scenario:
    MIGO FI Document value= (Purchase Value of Raw Material)+ ((Activity Posted while Confirmation)X(Activity price))
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    What u said is right Mr Kapil.. See when u do GR From Production Order System Calculate Moving Price or Planned Price from
    material Matser .
    As per ur Reuirement u told it should calculate (Raw Material Price + activity+OVHD).
    it is possible only when order quantity is less , suppose say your order qty is 150 mt per day and your Plant capacity is 500mt
    per day production will be done in a half day, sale can be done on same day after Production with the formula what u told.
    If suppose say , Your order is 2000 ton of Oil , it will take u to complete 4 days for your Total production as you told, GR should
    be done on (Raw Material Price + activity+OVHD) formula, you dont know exact activity price for 2000 ton until u finish your total
    production, at the same time until u do GR sales cannot be done. So in SAP Gr is intially done on Moving Average Or Planned
    (Standard Price) , After totla Prodcution GR is Compared with Actual Cost(Raw Material Price + activity+OVHD)= :"Variance".
    Plus are MInus is Reduced or added to Finished Goods Account or PP account during Settlement.
    If any wrong Pls Correct me Experts,

  • Double actual cost in Profitability Analysis for cancelled billing doc

    Dear expert
    Say we have a billing doc posted in May, and we run ML closing and KE27 during month end closing, which transfered actual cost from material ledger to value field in PA.
    In June, we cancelled that billing document, the question is why the system automatically posted actual cost of cancelled billing docs to value field in PA right away (without KE27)?
    The reason I asked is because when we run KE27 for June closing, the SAP transfer again actual cost from material ledger to value field in PA. So we will have double posting of actual cost for cancelled billing document
    Please help, which setting did I missed to prevent SAP automatically posted actual cost of cancelled billing docs to value field in PA right away (without KE27)?
    Thx

    Hi
    Thats because you had double +ve also..
    Let me u/s your situation better
    1.PGI Posted COGS of Say, 100
    2. KE27 posted, say, addnl 20
    So, total COGS is now 120
    3. You posted a reversal now... It should post -100 and not -120.... Is it posting -120?
    Run KE27 for this month and see if it really posts -120 again... If it does, raise an OSS message to SAP... They are liable to help
    In my opinion, there is no Config set up for this... At best, you can try to assign different VF in KE4R for PV = 02 as compared to PV=01 and see if it helps

  • Production costs for material with price control V

    Dear all,
    Can anyone pls tell me, how will the costing occur for a material produced in-house and having price control 'V' ? I am not able to see the target costs.
    Also kindly tell me the settings to be done in CO, like target cost version, valuation variant, costing variant, etc.
    Thank you,
    Shrenik

    Rather than giving my own versions I have compiled here SAP inputs. Pl let me know if you require any clarifications:
    Costing variant has the following components:
    <b>Define Costing Types
    Define Valuation Variants
    Define Date Control
    Define Quantity Structure Control
    Define Transfer Strategy
    Define Reference Variants</b>
    <u>Costing type:</u>
    In the costing type, you define the purpose of a material cost estimate by specifying, for example, which field in the material master record the costing results can be transferred to:
    Update Cost Estimate
    Standard price Standard cost estimate (01)
    Tax-based price Inventory cost estimate
    Commercial price Inventory cost estimate
    Price other than std price Modified standard cost estimate or
    current cost estimate
    No update Any cost estimate
    Define Valuation Variants:
    Define Valuation Variants
    Here you create a valuation variant containing the parameters required for valuation of a cost estimate.
    You also specify which costing sheet should be used to calculate overhead.
    Valuation Strategies
    Material valuation
    Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices from the accounting view or costing view of the material master record to valuate materials. You can also access prices from purchasing info records and condition types.
    For material cost estimates, you also specify whether additive costs can be added to the selected price.
    With configurable/configured material components and with procurement alternatives, the sequence defined here is ignored if the strategy "price from purchasing info record" was selected, in which case that strategy is always executed first. For more information, refer to the SAP Library in the component Product Cost Planning under Raw Material Costing or Mixed Costing.
    Activity Types / Processes
    Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in activity type planning or actual activity price calculation in Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to valuate the utilized activity types and business processes.
    You also specify which plan/actual version is used.
    Subcontracting
    Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record. In purchasing, quota arrangements are used to create a mixed price for materials that are manufactured with external vendors with parts provided by the customer. You can specify whether the quota of the individual vendors that are entered in the source list for the material to be processed should be determined through the planned quota arrangement or the actual quota arrangement.
    External processing
    Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record or routing operation for valuation of the external activities.
    Strategy Sequence
    You define the individual valuation methods for the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of the material components you define a strategy sequence that reads the fields of the material master record in a particular sequence such as:
    1. Planned price 1
    2. Standard price
    3. Moving price
    The first price that is not zero is used to valuate the material component.
    Target versions:
    Target cost versions  are used in the following ways:
    In variance calculation:
    To control which variance (total variance, production variances or planning variance) is calculated
    To valuate unplanned scrap( scrap variance)
    Unplanned scrap is valuated in the period-end closing activities when the variances are calculated. You can specify in a valuation variant for WIP and scrap which cost estimate you want to use to calculate the target costs for the valuation of unplanned scrap. You assign the valuation variant to target cost version 0 if you want to include it in the valuation of scrap.
    When you are using a cost object hierarchy with active distribution, you use the target cost version to control which cost estimate the system uses to calculate the target costs, which are used as the basis for determining equivalences for actual cost distribution.
    The actual costs collected at the level of the hierarchy are distributed across the orders in accordance with these equivalences. This distribution is proportional to the target costs for the cost element under which the actual costs are written. Actual costs for material costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for the origin group, such as for the material, if you have entered an origin group in the costing view of the material master record and have set the indicator Material origin, for example.
    If no target costs were calculated under this cost element, enter a cost element group in the target cost version. The actual costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for this cost element group. This cost element group should be complete. If costs were updated under a cost element that is not in this cost element group, no distribution is possible.
    You can calculate equivalences on the basis of SAP standard target cost versions 0, 1 and 3.
    The standard system supplies the following target cost versions:
    Target cost version 0 ( total variance)
    The amount of the total variance generates a posting in Financial Accounting during settlement.
    For this version, select actual costs as the control costs and standard cost estimate as the target costs.
    Target cost version 1 ( production variance)
    For this version you choose actual costs as the control costs and planned costs as the target costs.
    Target cost version 2( planning variance)
    With target cost version 2, the costs from the preliminary order cost estimate are interpreted as control costs.
    For this version, select planned costs as the control costs and current cost estimate as the target costs. You cannot calculate planning variances for the product cost collector.
    Target cost version 3 (production variance of the period)
    You compare the planned costs of the period calculated on the basis of an alternative material cost estimate (such as a modified standard cost estimate) with the actual costs of the period on the basis of the yield delivered to stock in the period.
    The base quantity for variance calculation is the yield.
    For this version, you choose the actual costs as the control costs and the alternative material cost estimate as the target costs. To determine the alternative material cost estimate, enter a costing variant and choose a costing version.
    The target cost version specifies which data is to be compared. The target cost version also specifies which variance variant is used and therefore which variance catagories are calculated. You can define a different target cost version for each controlling area

  • Actual Cost Calulation

    HI
    Can any one suggest me how actual cost of material is been calculated?
    What type of configration we need to do for this?

    Dear,
    System will take planned price during Order release. ie, how much price given in KP26, depends on that system will calculate.
    But while Order confirmation, system will confirm different price. This variance due to actual activity variance, excess material issue.
    Try MCRI / MCRY or check the table entries of S027

  • Transferring Standard and Actual costs to COPA

    Hi,
    We are using 3 valuations (Legal, Profit Center and Group Valuations). In order to transfer standard and actual costs to COPA for all 3 valuations do we need to create 3 costings (total 6) for transferring standard and and 3 costings keys for transferring actual costing to COPA?
    Thanks.

    Hi Ravi.
    Very interesting question!
    1: Ledgers in FI are not related with Material Ledger Valuation. EG, in FI you can have IFRS, TAX, and GAAP; and in ML You can have "currency/valuations"  Legal, PCA / Group. Keep in mind this are different stuff.
    2: In Material Ledger, you can valuate your stock according to different ledgers, with the bussiness function FIN_CO_COGM (Paralell cost of goods manufactured). The idea of this BF is have alternative valuations assigned to the principles (IFRS, TAX, GAAP), so in FI you can accomplish different Stocks, COGS and on accounts, based on different accounting principles. You can understand this as the brothers of FI Ledgers, in order to do product costing.
    3: In PA, you only post (or transfer) one record.  You have to decide if use "Local, Group, PCA or Paralell Cost of Goods Manufactured". (Im 90% sure based on lot of reading, maybe im missing somethings).
    Please, check this old post. Waman is a good source of info!
    CO-PA & IFRS
    Hi Waman!Waman Shirwaicar Could you please clarify the concept?  This is a topic that there are not much info!

    Hi
