Actual template allocation duplicate order posting
Hi,
We recently upgraded from 4.6C to 6.0. We use template allocation to allocate overhead to our process orders at month-end. We are doing our first month-end since going live on 6.0. When we ran tcode CPTD (actual template allocation) it posted the debit quantity and value to the process order twice, and the credit value to the business process only once. Therefore, the CO document is out of balance. We then run tcode CON2 to revalue the postings at actual price. Because of this error, we have a remaining un-allocated balance in our business processes for this month. We also have incorrect costsallocated to our process orders. How do we correct program CPTD, and correct these postings?
Thanks...
Hi
I am using environment 9 yes.
My formula is very simple:
On Object I have:
SenderCostCenter = '130570' AND
SenderActivityType = 'LABORA'
And then I have simply put "1" in Plan Quantity and Actual Quantity.
So what it does is it allocates the unit cost of the combination of cost center 130570 and act. type LABORA one time to each material/order no matter lot size.
Should I perhaps have put "1" into the Plan Fix and Actual Fix instead?
Thanks

Actual Template Allocation - Process Order Handling
Hi all
Could somebody give me some input to an issue I am facing.
I am working on a best practice baseline for Chemicals and have setup a Template to allocate overheads to materials. The allocation is fixed no matter the lot size of the process order.
At month end when running the closing process I use the transaction CPTD to allocate the actual template overhead to each process order.
However this transaction picks up and re-allocates overhead to process orders already confirmed, delivered and settled.
This is of course not what I expected as these orders have been fully completed, so I am thinking that I am missing step in closing down the process orders correctly.
Is there a status on the process order that will cause that order to be excluded from the CPTD, or am I missing some configuration?
Thank you in advance

CPTD - Actual Template Allocation on Process Orders - V.Urgent
Hi,
We are doing period closing for June'07.
We are using Activity Based Costing templates for Overhead allocation.
While executing T-Code CPTD (Collective processing) for Actual Template Allocation for Allocating Overheads for the month of June, the system is allocating
Overheads on all Process Orders confirmed till today i.e.it is wrongly
allocating Overheads for June, on process orders on which there has been
no production confirmed in June, but the Production was confirmed only
in July.
We expected the system to allocate Overheads only on Process Orders on
which the Production was confirmed in June,07.
Points will be awarded for providing solution.

Error in actual template allocation for Business Process
Gurus,
I am facing a strange problem in actual template allocation for business process (T-code: CPAS). When I am doing a test run, the system gives the result with a message "Processing completed with no errors", However when I have unchecked the test run and ran the allocation, system shows me the result, however no posting takes place. The message I am getting is:
"Data not updated due to errors". The details of this error message are:
No information was found
Message no. GU444
Diagnosis
The system could not find the necessary information.
I am absolutely clueless and have no idea where things have gone wrong. I have maintained the activity and cost center properly. The template I am using is also ok.
Request your help on this. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Snigdho.Hi ,
With such kind of error " "Data not updated due to errors". " its very difficult so determine the exact cause of the issue .
Did your selection parameters in CPAS has a tick on detailed list . Please tick the detailed list icon and run KPAS again and let me know if you are getting more detailed error from SAP.

CPTD Error during actual template allocation
Hi,
When i am trying to do CPTD (Actual template allocation) i am getting the belwo error message
System status CRTD is active (ORD 1094052)
Message no. BS013
Diagnosis
Object ORD 1094052 has system status CRTD (Created). According to this status, transaction 'Actual activity allocation' is not allowed.
Procedure
You can only carry out the requested function if this is allowed according to the status of the object.
But I am running for period 3/2010 and this order is created in period 4/2010. I am not getting how this order is selected when i am running for period 3.
Please help me
Thanks & regards@Sudhakara Reddy,
Could you help me understand how a costing run (CK40N/CK11N) is related to an order status?? Costing run is for product cost planning which is product specific.
CPTD transaction is for actual templace allocation and not for costing run. I failed to understand the link between your response and the question asked!
Newsap,
I think creation date of an order not relevant for this transaction. You may also want to check sapnote # 309588. -
Overhead cost template allocation
Hi All,
Can anyone please provide overhead cost template allocation configuration steps with print screens.
Regards,
VijayHi Vijay,
Templates are nothing but a tool for complex calculation of formulas .
Templates can be used for formula planning , activity allocation or overhead cost allocation . Enviornment of template tells you what you want to do with a template .
If you want OH Calculation to product instead of a Costing Sheet .. use enviornment "1" for Plan and "9" for actual.
You have lot of pre-defined SAP complex formulas available in the templates which you can use..
Template Creation
Enviornment varies with requirement and config will also varry , considering you are using templtes with enviornment 1 and 9 ( for Cost Allocation to Product )
Transaction CPT1 :-
1. Enter the name of the template and environment 001 2. Inside the template Type = Cost Center / Activity Type
3. Description = as you please
4. Object = Use the sender object .. either cost enter or combination of CC and AA whatever you need :
SenderCostCenter = 'XXXXXX' AND
SenderActivityType = 'AAAA'
or you can use the screen in bottom right to input the formula
5. Plan Quantity = Use the screen bottom for formula or use your own one ..
BomItemAlternativeQuantity( AlternativeQuantityUnit =
MaterialBaseQuantityUnit, ConditionField = BomItemComponents,
ComparisonValue = 'XXXXXX' )
6. Plan Activation = ACTIVE
7. Actual Quantity = Use your own formula using predefined SAP formulas
OrderMaterialQuantityConf( Material = 'XXXXX' )
6. Actual Activation = ACTIVE
Assignment of the Template
1. Create a OH Key using SPRO > Controlling > Prod Cost Controlling > Product Cost Planing > Basic Settings for Material Costing > Overhead > Define OH Keys
2. In Transaction OKZ2 Create OH group and assign that to the OH Key created in 1
3. Create Cost Sheet (only code and name) in SPRO > Controlling > Prod Cost Controlling > Product Cost Planing > Basic Settings for Material Costing > Overhead > Define Costing Sheets
4. In Transaction KTPF assign Controlling Area : Costing Sheet : OH Key : Template Environment : Template
5. In material master costing 1 view assign the OH group to the material (standard cost estimate reads this)
6. In the master data of the order assign the costing sheets and OH key etc so that the actual template allocation can happen.
Execution
Plan template is not required to be executed. At the time when you run CK11N or CK40N it is taken care of.
Actual Template allocation can be done with transaction CPTA - Individual Processing and CPTD - Collective Processing
I hope you would find this useful and you can further explore templates for the various formulae that you can define using th bottom right hand side in the screen of CPT1 to create magic in allocation. What I told here is very basic.
Thanks

Actual rates (KBK6) is not getting picked up for CPTA (template allocation)
Hello Experts,
I am using template allocation for the purpose of overhead calculation. I maintained rate in KP26. It is getting pulled up when I ran standard cost estimate. This is correct
Now I want to run CPTA (ie. charging overhead at month end) using actual rate. Hence I maintained actual rate in Tcode KBK6. Actual rate is little bit varying with KP26 rates. Hence I want to run CPTA with actual rate.
When I executed CPTA, I saw that system is picking up KP26 rate and not KBK6 rate. Please help me. How system will pick up KBK6 rate for CPTA.
--Meena.Hi Meena,
The correct sequence of closing should be:
1. Template Allocation - CPTA
This will post activity allocation from CC to your production order at PLAN price.
2. Calculate Actual Activity Prices - KSII
This will calculate actual price based on costs posted to CC and activities allocated (try to avoid KBK6 in your testing but rather calculate actual price properly). It will also credit CC but will NOT debit the order.
3. Revaluate your production order - MFN1
This will debit the order with the difference between plan and actual activity price.
Please kindly read SAP Note 156563 - Settlement after activity allocation/revaluation.
It explains revaluation logic in detail.
If in your case CPTA generates activity allocation between CC and order (valued at plan price) and KSII calculates new actual activity price, MFN1 has to update the order.

Edited by: amol wagh on Dec 6, 2008 8:10 PMDear,
For allocation activity costs, we need to define activity type in KL01 by specifying the unit of measurement of the particular activity type (like machine - Hours etc.). While creating activity type, we will assign a secondary cost element (with category 43) in the activity type through which the activity cost will flow.
After that we will plan for cost center in KP06 (cost elementwise). Then we will plan machine hours in KP26 where we will link the activity type to a particular cost center.
Please give the feed back.

How to check CO actual activity allocation for a internal order?
Hello Experts,
I have a question about the report S_ALR_87100185. When I check this report, I found that there is a WBS actual cost value(100 USD) posted to February 2008,but its created date and posting date is in May 2008. In the table RPSCO, there are two records, please refer to below figure.
Budget type KOAR:
Period 4: -120 USD
Period 5: -100 USD
Budget type RKL:
Period 2: 100 USD
Peirod 4: 120 USD
Who can tell me why the actual cost can posted to February, and how do I check it?
Thank you so much and best wishes,
MariaThe values that are appearing in Feb in the report are actually values of period 2 (Fiscal month May) i.e., 100 USD.
In the report which is based on form 3CST1- Actual Costs Period has got the column headings are hard texted as January, February etc., and the values that appear in month febraury are picked for period values of 2.
You can go ahead and change (T Code CJE6) the column heading description where you can start replacing January with April (Fiscal year start) and so on.

Actual cost of Production Order settled to Fixed Assets
Dear all,
My client is doing in-house production of moulds (internal order suggestion is not accepted by the client) for which
they have the following
1. BOM
2. Machine hour
3. labour
4. overhead etc
5.plan value
6. actual value
Can i settle the actual cost of production order to Fixed Asset ?
If yes
what are process kindly give me if any process other then the below
1.production order created
2. settlement profile - FA is settlement optional
3. allocation structure
4. Asset created
5 define asset in settlement rule
Kindly give me your valuable input
regards
elangoHi,
Although i am not CO expert , please check with your FICO consultant who are expert before make the final call.
During settlement to a G/L account or a fixed asset, the system ignores additional account assignments that were manually specified in the distribution rule.
Based on what i know .
you can stipulate that settlement may be made to cost centers and orders, but not to fixed assets.
The Settlement profile is something that you need to create a settlement rule to settle the actual costs of a sender object.
About the Settlement rule is something that contains the distribution rules for the sender. It will define how the way to settle the cost.
Allocation Structure
In the settlement structure you combine the primary and secondary cost elements into groups, in which debits are then posted to the sender objects. For each group, you specify whether (for settlement to a given receiver type) settlement is performed
by cost element or using a settlement cost element.
For example, you might use settlement cost elements:
To document the purpose of an order (such as, repairs or maintenance)
To reduce data volumes (you can combine a number of debit cost elements
under one settlement cost element).

Hi SAP Gurus,
I am facing one problem in Actual activity allocation
In production cost center, cost centers are credited with plan price (Re.1) for every activity qty confirmation
the system posted from Jan to May plan price
in the month of June system posted price Rs.2.02 for five transaction for the rest of the transaction it is taking Re.1. I don't from where this has been picked/calculated by the system
Please help in finding this
regards

Edited by: priyas78 on Sep 5, 2011 2:23HI,
- What is displayed in KSBT - plan must be the same of kp26; executing the report select only period 6, otherwise the system show average values.
- May be I did not understand correctly your question; for clarification, what do you mean with "Re" and "Rs"? are them two different activity type?

Difference between plan,actual and target in order
hi
plz tell me ans.
In the manufacturing order WHAT is the difference PLAN, ACTUAL and TARGET.
In the CK11N, we will estimate plan cost for one finished product but in order we are taking 2 costing variant that is PRODUCTION ORDER PLANDED (PPP1) and PRODUCTION ORDER ACTUAL(PPP2) . in the ORDER calculation which is taken as an account and tell me their functionality separately
thank u
sowmyaPlan Cost means this is the cost of Product or Material or Activity or any others statistical price which we estimate and Plan prices for organizations future activities.
Actual cost is the original/Actual cost we incurred for Product or Material or Activity or any other.
Target cost are the costs that are expected for a certain operating rate. It is the dynamic value which will be calculated on the basis Operating rate (Operating rate = (Actual activity / Plan activity) X 100), and It is a consistent basis useful for comparisons of the plan and actual costs of a period.
Ex:
we plan $110 per hour of Labor activity.
but we incurred $125 as actual cost.
for this Target cost is (125/110)*100=113
We use Costing variant for plan to calculate plan price of Order.
when order is created system posts planned costs to the order according to standard cost estimate of product, which uses the planned cost variant.
when the production is carried out Actual costs are posted to the order using Costing variant for actual. when order is completed system uses this two values to calculate the variance of production order. which can be settled to FI.
Hope U got...
