Actual price of Activity
I find certain settings in the controlling area settings - settings for each fiscal year for planning and price calculation. My requirement is to calculate the actual price of the activities. What should be my settings in this area in order to calculate the actual price of my activities ?
Hi,
In Maintain Version in settings for Controlling folder in Settings for each Fiscal Year under Price calculation tab
Select 1 Revaluation in separate transaction (or) 2 Revaluation in original transaction for Revaluation at Actual Prices field. Details as bellow
Revaluation at Actual Prices
Indicator determining whether actual activities in a version are
valuated with actual prices and how the valuation is performed.
0 Not valuated
All actual activities valuated with the plan price
1 Revaluation in separate transaction
All actual activities valuated with the actual price; original
allocation unchanged
The differences between allocations valuated with plan and actual
prices are posted under a separate transaction (actual price
calculation).
2 Revaluation in original transaction
All actual activities revaluated with the actual price; original allocation changed
The differences between allocations valuated with actual and plan
prices are not shown with this option.

Manual actual price of activity kbk6
Dear Experts,
I always used splitting-actual activity price calculation and revaluation of activity.
but How to calculate and charged Actual activity price through KBK6 from production order.
ie - standard cost of Power is 80 (credit side of cost center) ,power qty 10 and standard rate 8 rs at the time of production order confirmation and Actual Booking of Power is 100 rs and actual rate 100/10=10rs. so my production orders are charged less with rs 20.
i have maintained rs 10 in kbk6 after that shall i execute CON2 or MBN1 for charging actual rate from production order then followed by Variance and settlement.
M i missing something or need to take care something?.
regards
RRHi
After maintaining actual activity price manually, you need to follow the same process of CON2
However, you may need to apply Note 732421 - Revaluation: Manual prices are incorrectly revaluated

Wrong actual price calculation
Dear Sap Experts
I'm running KSS2 to split costs into cost centers and getting a value of $ 12.461,66.
Volume of activities is 83,94, according S_ALR_87013611 and KSII.
Thing is that actual activity price given by the system is $ 151,56 and not $ 148,46 instead.
Some idea you could provide in order to investigate it?
Tks a lot, cheers
PatriciaHi Sateesh,
Pls go through the following example to understand Plan Activity Price and Actual Activity Price:
For Cost Center A, you do Cost Element Planning in KP06 (Ex. Rs.1,00,000). In KP26, you do the planned Activity Quantity (100 Hrs) - you will not update any price in KP26 screen usually . Now, to calculate the Planned Activity Price, you use the transaction code KSPI. The gives the result of Planned Activity Price of Rs.1000 per Hr.
Now, when you confirm the activities in Production Order in CO11n, the activity cost on the Production Order is updated with the Planned Price of Rs.1000. So, by the end of the period, if total actual hrs confirmed is 60 Hrs. ie., total cost loaded onto Production Orders is Rs.60,000.
Now, think of the actual cost that is booked to the Cost Center A (either through FI postings or distribution / assessment from other cost centers). If the actual cost that was posted to that cost center is only Rs.84,000. (Where as Planned Cost was Rs.1,00,000).
Now, when you run KSII transaction code for actual activity price calculation, the system will calculate the actual activity price by 84,000 / 60 Hrs =1,333.33.
This is the way how the system clearly shows and takes care of Under-Absorption / Over-Absorption in cost centers.
Then you run the transaction code MFN1 / CON2 to revaluate your Production Orders with the Actual Price of Activity.
After alll these steps only, you need to settle the Production Orders.
If you settle Production Orders before revaluating with Actual Activity Price, then again there will be some loaded on to Production Orders, so, you have to do the settlement again.
Hope my explanation is clear...
cheers....

Dear experts,
Generally we do price calculation in KSII, that is standard price calculation. After planning in kp06 and kp26 we do this calculation. For actual confirmations also ( in CO11N ), we use the same price ( that means standard price whatever we calculated in KSPI ). But i have some doubt regarding actual price calculation. When we do actual price calculation in KSII? when we do actual price revaluation in CON2? what is the use of doing this one? At what point of time we do revaluation? immediately after doing confirmations? Please help me.

Use an alternative Exchange Rate Type for activity actual price
Dear All,
I try to use an alternative Exchange Rate (not M) in controlling area version "0", I need to use a custom currency exchange rate like in planned price (here I create a new planned version with exchange rate "N").
I find same notes and it seems that standard Sap use only Exchange Rate "M" for actual price but I notice that for example in transaction KB21N (activity allocation) system shows in additional info exchange rate "N" (input in version "0").
Is not possibile to use other Exchange Rate for actual price, activity allocation, for confirmed activity in production order?
Controlling area has currency type 30 (group currency EUR), this company has MXN.
Thanks in advance for your support
DariaIn KB21N (activity allocation), system uses the exchange rate type you have maintained in controlling area version plan settings (transaction OKEQN). Activity allocation during the month always happen at the planned price maintained in KP26 at the exchange rate specified in plan version. During actual price calculation and revaluation during month end, it calculates actual activity price at (uses M rate to convert to controlling area currency) and revaluates consumption.
I think you cannot use other exchange rate, see the coding in include LKSPIF00 that is used in KSII where currency type is hard coded to M, if this is plan price calculation it's picking tka07-kurst.

Activity Costs Revaluation Using Actual Price
Hi,
Since we can revaluate the activity costs at actual price in the product costing module itself using t.code MFN1, why SAP has provided another option to revaluate acticvity consumption at actual price in the material ledger multi level price determination?
What is the difference between the both? If i had used MFN1, do i still have to use the revaluation of activity costs provided in the material ledger?Hi,
However don't you think if the production order activity cost has been revaluated at actuals in the production order then during settlement it will carry the activity actual costs which will be shown in material ledger receipts category with the same actuals value for the activity costs.
So why should i be revaluating the activity costs again with actual activity price in material ledger once again? It sounds like a duplicate work to me under this scenario.... -
Actual price calculation for multiple activity types
Gurus,
I am working on a scenario where we have 2 main cost centers (A & B) from which services are used in different cost centers one of which is C. C is assigned to a work center. Now for the cost center C,two activity types are defined ATA and ATB which are actually the services from cost center A and B respectively.
Now for standard cost estimate I can define planned rates for those two activities based on the cost center C. Now at the month end I want to draw the costs from A and B based on the % of the services drawn by C and then calculate the actual price for those activities, i.e. run revaluation cycle. My question is, when I would run the revaluation cycle, how am I going to differentiate the cost of each activity types based on the cost input from respective cost centers (A and B) ?
I short, with more than one activity type and more than one input cost center, is it possible to valuate the activities on actual prices?
Thanks in advance!
SnigdhoHi Snigdho
Yes, you can!!
If I have understood your question well - What you want is that the Cost allocated to From A to C should be divided by Act type ATA and cost allocated from B to C, should be divided by ATB, at the period end... Is that what you want?
You can achieve this in SAP...
1. Create 2 separate secondary cost elements for each Act Type ATA and ATB
2. Create a Spliting structure in OKES... You would assign Secondary cost ele 1 to ATA and Sec Cost ele 2 to ATB
Assign cost center C to this splitting structure in OKEW
3. now, when you calculate Act price, you will get what you want

Cost Center Report : Revaluation at actual prices - credit but positive sign
Hi Experts,
Great day!
I just want to know the cause of the following unsual behavior of the system. The credit part of the cost center report is blank/zero and when you double-click the actual line items, it shows that the revaluation at actual prices are positive sign. By clicking an item further, the report will direct me to the CO document to investigate what happened. I found out that the sender - Activity revaluates the price for the receiver - Production Order.
I looked at the details of the sender - Activity and I found out that the debit/credit indicator is "C" but the sign is positive.
Your immediate help will be rewarded.
Thank you!
Here's the cost center report:
I am expecting the credit part to have a value right after I executed the "Actual Cost Splitting" at T-code: KSS2
Here's the unsual behavior:
Dr/Cr indicator is "C' but the value at Controlling Area Currency is in a positive sign.
Again, thank you!Hi Dryan
Revaluations are posted to CC after you do CON2 and not KSS2
1. Did you do CON2 and revaluate the Prod orders with actual activity price?
2. Ensure that revaluation is allowed in Plan Version 0 for FY 2014
3. Also, check your activity price calculated in KSII... Revalaution is a result of the actual activity Price (x) Activity Hrs confirmed in Prod order
4. Check the hrs confirmed in the Production order.. They should be +ve as well

Hi Experts,
We have this scenario:
1. Activity prices are entered manually in KP26.(Activity type indicator=5)
2. At the time of CO11N only POWER activity will confirm.
3. Executing CPTA for overhead allocation.
4. KSS2 for power activity
5. No splitting for other cost elements
6. KSII Actual price calculation
7. MFN1 Revaluation of order
After revaluatin of order when i am checking actul cost for activities only power cost is coming.
Please find the enclosed print screens for same above process.
Please guide me how to get the actual price calculation for other activities.
KP26 :
KSS2:
KSII:
CO03:
Regards,
VivaanHi Rajneesh,
Yes Splitting rule is Activity only.
Ex.
1.Order Quantity = 1000
2. I confirmed yeild 500 Qty & power activity 200 in CO11N.
3. Now when i execute CPTA for that order its calculating like below.
4. KSS2:
KSII:
Now actual price is coming same for other activities except power.
If i maintain no split structure that time in KSII only power actual price coming as print screens posted in original query posted.
Please advise me on Actuall price calculation as per our business scenario.
Regards,
Vivaan
Now my client is asking is as below
Cost center report xxxxxx
Water GL cost = 60000
Water Qautnity=1000(This is PO Total order quantity)
Water actual price=60000/1000 =60
Confirmed Quantity= 500
Actual price calculation for water = 500*60=30000
same for other activities also.
Please advise.
Regards,

HEllo all,
I want to know that if i do the costing run then it is the standard cost which includes BoM and activity costs
After monthend when i release the standard cost then it becomes actual i understand about the Bom cost but how the activity price is becomes actual price because in costing all the activity price is picked from KP26 plan price how it becomes actual .
Is from CON2 or any other transaction and when to run CON2.

Actual Price Calculation (KSII)
hi,
I am not able to get the actual prices for my production order.
I maintained certain settings for actual price calculation in OKEQ.
Does it is mandatory to run the MFN1 (Revaluation of actual prices) before the KSII.
SrinivasHi Sateesh,
Please find below the process for calculation of Actual Activity Prices:
1. Define Splitting structure, rules (method). I am sure you would have done this
2. Assign the splitting structure to Cost Centers. I hope you would be done this as well
3. Actual values (Costs and quantitative details) will get collected to cost centers in the following way:
- Quantities will get collected to Cost Centers once the confirmation of activities are done for the production order. Please make sure that "Record Quantity" check box is selected for the relevant secondary cost elements.
- Values will get collected from FI to the primary cost elements
you may check whether the values have been properly collected to the cost center using the cost center reports
4. Execute cost Split using - KSS2
5. Then calculate Actual activity unit price - KSII
6. Once the prices are successfully calculated, you can check the prices in KP26
7. after this process is completed then you can revaluate you production orders using the actual activity prices
I hope i made is clear.
Let me know if you need further details in this regard

Actual Price Calculation Issues
Hi,
I need explanation on how the system calculates actual prices in KSII.
In my cases i maintained Rs 1.00 as variable price for my activity type and cost center combination in KP26. My planned activity is 1000 Mins and actual activity is 3600. in KSII system is showing 2129.64 as actual price calculation. how the system is calculation as 2129.64. If i see cost center report it is showing that over absorption as -2600.
Please guide me on the actual price calculation.HI,
KSII - Actual Cost/Actual Qty.
Please check what is your actual cost and Actual qty. in your cost center report and check. Planned qty. or Planned cost is not taken for consideration during KSII.
Bye,

Actual price calculation - acutal price indicator KSII
Hi Friends
I am trying to calculate actual price (KSII) and am getting the following message.
All activity prices are manually entered
Message no. KP211
Diagnosis
All activity prices in controlling area 1000, fiscal year 2009, and version 0 were determined and set as manually entered prices.
In actual price calculation, all plan activity prices, meaning those calculated automatically (activity price indicator 1 and 2) and those set manually (activity price indicator 3), are treated as if they have been set manually.
System Response
The SAP System cannot calculate activity prices automatically.
Processing is cancelled.
Procedure
Check your activity type planning. To calculate the activity price automatically, you must set the activity price indicator accordingly.
Pl suggest what the actual price indicator should be in activity master data
I am putting 5 there (after some actual data is posted) but it is not working. it is still giveing the above error and not calculating the actual price.
Pl suggest the way out.
Regards,Hi,
In activity type creation check whether you maintained activity category as "1" and actual price indicator as"5"
