Actual overhead cost variance adjustment.

Hi,
I have created an process order with different activity types.
Say i have created an order for 500ton whre my system has generated an planned cost for overhead rs 550 for salary.
now i go to KGI2 to calculate actual overhead cost.
In actual client has paid 600 rs in salary. So in KGI2 should enter rs 600.
I donot find any option to edit the cost to enter 600 rs.
please any of u let me know the solution.
Regards
PAVAN

Dear,
Tcode KGI2 is correct but first check whether your cost sheet has done correctly or not.You have to give overhead percentage (Actual & plan) in Tcode KZS2.and assign proper cost element for credit
Check Costing sheet, % of OH and Transaction code KA06

Actual Overhead Cost Splitting

Dear All,
We have 5 direct activity types and 3 overhead activity types in the system.
Plan Overhead cost splitted perfectly aginst the 5 direct activity types based on the activity quantity,
but when it comes to actual splitting:
1.the system splitting the cost eually in NEGATIVE among the 5 direct activity types instaed of splitting to 3 overhead activity types
2. system considering the all direct activity cost as part of one overhead activity types.
I am unable to understand how the system is behaving while splitting actual overhead costs to direct activity types
Can sombody throw any light on this issue.

Planned & Actual Overhead Rates

Hello friends..
In the costing sheet, under the percentage overhead rates..
Can someone please tell me what is the basic difference between the Planned Overhead rate (Overhead type 2) and actual overhead rate (overhead type 1)?
Please explain..
Regards
Shiv

Well, usually we maintain the same percentage for both plan and actual. Just for appreciating the difference, I indicated to try with a different %. This could be having an use too, where the planning is done at beginning of the year and later in the year, you land up in under absorption, you may want to absorb more on production order, you could resort to.
In cases of activity pricing, you can run an actual activity pricing, that can re-calculate the activities. But for indirect overheads, where costing sheets are used you can only change the actual (type 1) percentages.
Well the purpose of standard costing is to set a standard and monitor the variances as we produce. Whatever changes to actuals are made, anyway will be disclosed during the variance calculation.

How to allocate cost variances during goods issue in sales process?

Hi all,
In China GAAP, cost variances ( variance between standard cost and actual cost) should be capitalized to balance sheet at month-end.
Q1: Could I settle the cost variance to a B/S account instead of P/L account? What's SAP or your recommendation?
Q2: if we settle the cost variances to a B/S account, How could we allocate the production cost when post goods issue for sales order? i.e
Dr: COGS
Cr: cost of finished goods
Cr: production cost (B/S account, cost variances by proration of sold)
Please advice.Thanks in advance
Regards,
Alex LIU

Hi,
All variances between Standard & Actual cost should be settled to a P/L A/c as these are similar to Purchase Price variances on Raw Material purchases.
If you are valuing your Finished Goods @ Standard cost, then the difference between the Standard & the Actual cost should be debited or credited to a Price or Cost difference P/L A/c either at the time of doing the GR of the Production or at the time of posting the Goods Issue for Sales Order.
The balance in the Cost difference accounts needs to be finally posted to profitability segments in COPA.

How to exclude the overhead cost from DIP source data

Hi :
I'm using EK01 condition to catch all the cost booked against the project object from PS, when I try DP91 to have DMR, it's return error "material determination error".. that's caused by overhead cost element is not configred in ODP1.
Actually, we're not expecting overhead to be billed to customer,, how we can config to get this resolved ?
Thanks !

BOM- Actual Additional Cost

Hi Experts,
In production order :status - released : Summary Tab : actual additional cost field the additional cost is not shown. .
Looking into the Journal entries created from that transaction I can't find any entry generated out of that service or labor item. But the Unit price for that item is same as that shown in the field Product price of the BOM window.
Plz help
Regards
Aniruddha

Hi Experts,
I have similar problem. We have created 7 Labor type item for 7 BOM since we have different rate for each BOM item.
I already check the following,
Valuation Method = Standard
Item cost is not null we encoded the rate already
GL method is set by item group
WIP inventories and WIP variance is already set.
Issuance Method is Back Flush
My problem is 2 of of 7 BOM item has no additional cost n the journal entry (zero amount)when we received FG quantity . I already compare the master data , all set up is the same except for item cost which has different rate.
Please help ASAP

Landed costs variance

As far as I can tell SAP landed costs doesn't track record expected landed costs, only actual landed costs. In other words there is not a way using landed costs to track expected landed costs vs. actual landed costs and identify variances? Is there some other way to do this?

When you mention 'expected landed cost' what do you want SAP B1 to do with this value?
The reason SAP B1 tracks actual landed cost is because this value is then passed on to the item unit cost which in turn will affect the gross profit (GP) value in the sales.

GL ASSIGNMENT OF ACTUAL OVERHEAD CALCULATION

Dear Gurus,
for actual overhead calculation, i go through transaction CO43.So just after executing for the plant based on the period, system automatically post all the orders to the specific GL a/cs. so i want to know where the exactly GL assginments happen, so that the system automatically post to those specific GL a/cs.
Kindly suggest asap.

The automatic assignment is normally done through OKB9 for a cost Center; Order, Profit Center.

Overhead Cost Allocation - with IFRS

Hi Gurus,
We have configured Leading Ledger for reporting in IFRS and a non-leading ledger for local (India) Reporting.
As this implementation is being done by our Overseas parent company - we are using template allocation for Overhead cost allocation.
However, we want to allocate expenses based on actual consumptions rather than on Process Output quantity. ie. for example - electricity charges we want to distribute based on actual no of units consumed by each department/machine/process.
Kindly advise, If there a possibility for having both methods in the system (automatic) or manul process for achieving this.
Thanks
Sree.

Hi Expert,
There is no such feature to Allocate Overhead Cost with Ledgers.
No need to Allocate Costs or Overhead Costs with respect to Leading Ledger - IFRS.
By default, the Costs or Overhead Costs are allocated to Leading Ledgers.

Overhead cost not coming in production order

Hello Friends,
I have assigned overhead group to material master in costing 1 view.Overhead group is assigned to Overhead key and valuation area of mine (plant).Even i have defined overhead rates i.e, percentage overhead for my company code.Then i calculated the overhead using KGI2.It shows no error in log and shows 1 overhead calculated.But when i go inside the production order, it doesn't show the overhead cost in actual cost, why?
   Am i wrong in calculating the overhead cost?
   Please guide.
   Thanking you.

Hi,
Your overhead rate has to be assigned to your costing sheet.
Follow the steps below...
1) For your order type check the OTDP (OPL8 t code)
Check your applicable costing variant in "cost accounting tab)
2) In OPL1 t code check the valuation variants (planned and actual) for your costing variant
3) In Okk4 check the costing sheets assigned to your valuation varaint.
4) now check if the overhead key is assigned to your costing sheet in IMG--> controlling
>Product cost controlling>Cost Object Controlling-->Product Cost by Order
>Overhead>Define Costing Sheets. If it is not assigned, then assign it
5) Also check if your overhead key is assigned to your overhead rate. Follow the same path as above. under 'Define Costing Sheets' Costing Sheet: Components-->Define Percentage Overhead Rates.
Now check your scenario again.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ashok
