Additive cost in Std Cost estimate

Hi
I have a requirement to add extra cost in a material cost estimate for certain plants.  Because of this I have two costing variants in our case.  One is without this extra cost and another with extra cost. This cost is actually freight cost for certain materials.
For this purpose I am planning to use additive cost.  I have created one item in the cost component structure and assigned the cost element for this additive cost.
I think that is all I require with regard to additive cost.  Now when I try to enter additive cost, system showing some screen showing resources and all.  I am not able to understand how can I enter it as a resource ?

Hi Nikita
I wont recommend allocation from cost center to prod orders....
You will have a toughtime entering the SKFs for the prod orders... You would agree that you would need tracing factor in the allocation cycle... which would be SKF... You need to identify the prod orders processed during the month, then enter SKF for them and then execute allocation cycle
Just think about it... May be you would realize the complicacy of it... I would suggest to use a costing sheet or a template allocation.. I dont know how the later works, I am nt an expert at it

  • Additive Cost Estimate Report

    Hi Gurus ,
    We need a additive cost estimate Report that would show the Material,Plant, additive cost (in dollars NOT "x" as shown in KEKO or KEPH table).
    for the above I tried a simple Querry with MARC-KEKO-KEPH (didn't conside MBEW-MARA) , in SQ01 But the end resul is same as KEKO table Just Showing the "x" mark,
    Users can not go for individual validation after doing a Mass upload of CK76N using LSMW  so would like to see a detailed report with Dollar amount and comare it with their Books.
    I searched SDN for this kind of report But no useful information,
    Your Help Greately Appreciated,
    Note: please don't say Use, KEKO, KEPH tables,Thank you ,
    Sandhya

    You can look at Functional Modules in SE37. You can as well execute them in test in the tcode to provide the input values, it would show the out put values as well.
    You need to provide your requirements by explaining what you are achieving in CK76n and how they are stored in Tables KEKO, etc... and ask him to build a program using the above functional modules.
    Infact if the above functional modules doesnot work, you can ask the ABAPer to use the same function modules used in CK76n to get the information and make the requirement changes to meet your requirements.

  • How to include ED in Std.cost estimate

    Dear all
    My client want to add ED to Std. cost estimate in receiving plant(Depot). I have acheived this by way of additive cost estimate manually. but my client wants that system could pick up the Ed from SD where ED is maintained SKU wise.
    At recieving plant(Depot) the std.cost estimate is like this
    Std cost from production Plant
    ED from SD
    Freight ( certain % on ( St.cost+ED)
    Std cost at depot
    Is it possible to get above scenerio?
    Pl help me out
    Regards
    SPSankaram

    HI
    Standard formula for workcenter costing is SAP008 , you have to specify in the costing and capacity tab , whereas for scheduling specify SAP004
    then try creating the order

  • Additive Cost and Variance Calcultion

    We started using Tcode CK74N to enter additive costs for certian materials. I did the configuration needed in the costing variant and added a cost element for additive costs in the cost component structure.
    Everything is working fine, when we run CK11n for a material that already have an additive cost estimate, the additive costs are being picked up and included in the cost estimate. if we mark and release the cost estimate the additive costs are being reflected in the new standard, so far so good.
    My question is around the variance postings that happen once we enter a production order and settle the variance at period end.
    lets look at this example
    Assume the following:
    Material X current standard = $100
    Order X quantity produced =10 cases
    Material X NEW standard after negative additive cost =$80
    Scenario 1 (no additive costs) the total debits (Actual postings form material consumption and activity confirmation) to a the order = $900
    The total credit was $1000 (standard*quantity produced) , a $100 in variance will occur, and the posting at settlement will be to Debit the price difference account and to credit the cost of sales account for $100. This is the normal case
    Scenario 2 : We included a -$200 of additive costs for that material in the standard (new Standard is 80) , the credit to the order will be $800 instead of $1000 , which will make the variance -$200 and the posting currently is to DR cost of sales and credit price difference account for $200
    The business and Based on scenario 2 wants to automatically generate a posting to the ACTUAL side of the production order equivalent to the additional variance caused by additive costs? which will put the variance back at 100.
    They would like to see a credit to the cost element used in the cost component structure to book additive costs. and the reminder of the variance 100 in our example should continue to be booked to the same price different account .
    If this is possible and right to do? what account should be used to offset this credit that being proposed to the additive cost element ? Because I assume that a new FI document should be created to record the credit?
    Thanks for your help

    Hey,
    It depends a little upon the settlement rule of your process/production order.
    If you are settling to the material (MAT), the price difference will only be accounted for with one line, without separation between difference coming from additive costs and other differences.
    If you are settling not via within CO, you maybe have the possibility the way you settle, but I can not see how you can use such a logic in a settlement process.
    What I would do, is to create a custom reposting program, which reposts the additive cost difference separately, after which the normal settlement can take care of the remaining difference.

  • Additive costs and LSMW

    Hi ,
    I have LSMW for Additive cost upload, but unfortunately we have additive cost for all materilas  valid up to 9999 year so when ever we use LSMW for upload we need to hit (as it gives that screen showing previous additive cost estimate as it over laps) ENTER for so many times until we finish all materilas, so
    can any one please tell me how to delete all additive costs which is maintainted till 9999 , so that we don't get any messages during LSMW upload?

    Suraj,
    Don't mind As both my issues are inte-rrelated I am dragging our conversaton, I saw that Field in KEKO-KKZMA, but it is Just a indicator that says this product is having some Additive costs, But not the Dollar amount,
    S_ALR_87099930 the regular cost estimates report from the Field selection I can Have Additive costs but even this shows Blank, i really wonder "where can I see the actual dollar amount" or any Document that saves the data, Just Like a price change Document, as you said you guys developed the Z report (to be frank I couldn't do this in My last Project, Now I got the same requirement here with new Client) , If you can let me know the main Tables you (MARA, MARC, MBEW, KEKO, KEPH) you took as base,?
    and where can I see actaul dollar amount, even in CK76N It won't show "the dolalr amount" for materials it Just Lists all materilas from where you need to Click and go in side to see the dollar amount,
    If you want you can reply to below thread I will close  this Thread,

  • Additive Cost  - Product Costing

    What is the use of additive cost.
    What are the configuration required to set up the additive cost.
    Also pl explain one sample business scenarios where additive cost can be used.
    please reply asap.
    regards
    abhay

    You can also use an Additive Cost to represent the 'markup' for Inter-Company transfers, freight, special handling, etc.
    CONFIG:  Define Costing Variants:
    IMG> Controlling> Product Cost Controlling> Product Cost Planning> Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure> Define Costing Variants (OKKN)
    Choose appropriate Costing Variant.  On u2018Additive costsu2019 tab, choose u201CInclude additive costsu201D in the field Additive Cost Comps.  Also, flag the u201CInclude additive costs with stock transfersu201D option.
    1.  Create an Additive Cost Estimate using a u2018Vu2019 Item Category (Variable Item).  Follow  menupath:  Accounting> Controlling> Product Cost Controlling> Product Cost Planning> Material Costing> Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure> Additive Costs>  Create (CK74N)
    2.  Create a new Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure to automatically include the Additive Cost Estimate created in Step 2.   Use menupath:  Accounting> Controlling> Product Cost Controlling> Product Cost Planning> Material Costing> Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure> Create (CK11N)
    The new Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure will have automatically pulled in the Additive Cost Estimate that you created in Step 1.
    If you want to view the Additive Cost Estimate use menupath:  Costs> Additive Costs (CK13N) within the Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure display screen.

  • We cannot do std cost estimate every month in ML

    HI
    Can we do std cost estimate whenever required with changed price,
    can i change the price in material master -how
    regards
    sowmya

    Hi,
    We can do std cost estimate once in a month. If we want to do multiple times in a month we should reorganise the material cost estimate using CKR1.
    We can change the material master price for a material with out standard cost estimate using MR21.
    If standard cost estimate exist, use CKR1, the use MR21.

  • Std Cost Estimate-Processwise

    I have a requirement and seek your clarification:
    Here we are in the process of settings of Product Costing.  The client wants to have a display of cost estimate as follows:
    Here the production process has 3 stages.  Once the Standard Costing is run, it should be able to view the cost estimate as follows:
    Process-I : Raw Material Cost  xx
                       Direct Labour Cost  xx
                       Overheads              xx
    Process-II : Raw Material Cost  xx
                       Direct Labour Cost  xx
                       Overheads              xx
    Process-III : Raw Material Cost  xx
                       Direct Labour Cost  xx
                       Overheads              xx
    What is the best way out ?  Do I have to have different cost elements for same item process-wise ?
    Please give your inputs.

    Hi Nikitha
    I am not able to understand where your issue is...
    This requirement is pretty standard and is addressed with in std SAP itself....
    For each of these process,I am sure, you would be having a separate material code.... i.e. say, raw mat 1 is inputted... After passing through Process 1, It is termed as SFG A... Then A passes through Process 2 and the outcome is termed as SFG B and similarly FG C
    Each Material A, B and C has its own BOM and routing.... BOM for B, will have A as component and BOM for C will have B as component....
    When you execute CK11N for each one of these, cost for each A B and C is stored separately because each material is a separate entity in itself.. There is no reason why you would define separate GL accounts for them...
    In CK13N, each one of them will show you its own cost...
    You can await inputs from other members also...

  • Std. cost estimate

    Dear Experts,
    We have ROH, HALB & ZMAT as materials.  The question is with respect std. cost estimate.
    The cost estimate are run for HALB & ZMAT  items created  on day to day basis. However cost estimate is executed for all the  HALB & ZMAT on alternate months.
    I would lke to know the best practice or industry standard on this issue on the frequency of estimates. I appreciate any other points rellated to this point.
    Thanks in advance.
    T.S.Shankar

    hi read the following basics of CO-PC        
    1)A material cost estimate used to calculate the standard price in the 
    material master record.                                                                               
    2)The cost estimate must be executed with a costing variant that updates
    the material master, and the cost estimate must be released.                                                                               
    3)Forms the basis for profit planning or product costing where the focus 
    is on determining the variances.                                                                               
    4)Typicall, a standard cost estimate is created for each product at the  
    beginning of the fiscal year or new season or BEGINING OF THE PERIOD /  MONTH.                                                                               
    5)Standard cost estimates establish standard prices for semifinished     
    products and finished products. The costs calculated in standard cost  
    estimates are used to valuate materials with standard price control.   
    A costing type that calculates the cost of goods manufactured for a   
    product during the course of a planning period.                                                                               
    It differs from the standard cost estimate in that it uses the quantity
    structure that has changed during the planning period as the basis for
    calculating costs.   (  WHEN EVR YOUR PLANNING WILL BE CHANGED    )
    CURRENT COST ESTIMATE                                                                          
    1)A cost estimate that can be created at any time to valuate the current   
    quantity structure with the current prices.                                                                               
    This cost estimate serves the following purposes:                                                                               
    A)  You can compare its results with the results of the standard cost    
         estimate to support decision-making in production.                                                                               
    B)You can transfer the results of this cost estimate to the material   
         master and use them to valuate the goods receipt when working with   
         materials that use the moving average price.

  • How to Run a Cost Estimate with Budgeted Values parallel to the Std Cost Estiamte

    Hi Experts,
    My client want to run a parallel cost estimate with Budgeted values for each type of cost in a similar process like standard cost estimate(currently only Std business run only the std. cost estimate). Below will be provided to run the said cost estimate.
         1. Budgeted Cost for cost elements against each cost center
         2. Re-posting/distribution will be required run to allocate and apportion the cost from service cost centers to Production cost centers
         3. All Planned(future) Material Cost will be provided. (note that the valuation strategy of costing variant of standard cost estimate has below sequence
         4. Budgeted activity quantities will be provided. (Cost and activity qty for Kp06 and Kp26)
    Based on the above data business need to run a cost estimate with budgeted values parallel to the standard cost estimate(based on planned values), which will be compared with actual then Budget at each months.
    Simply an alternative cost estimate with budgeted values for a given period for all materials.
    Kindly advice the possibility of such a cost estimate in the system and if possible pls. mentioned the Process in order and configuration steps for the same.
    Thanks in advance.
    Aziz

    Hi..
    You can define costing variants which have valuation variant for budgeted values parallel to the standard cost estimate  in Customizing for Product Cost Controlling.
    You can define target cost versions using above costing variants under the customizing transaction OKV6 as below picture.
    When you calculate variances, you can check “all target cost version” flag to calculate variances  for all target cost versions in the controlling area as below picture.
    You can analysis the difference between actual cost and several budget cost using target cost version as below picture.

  • Preliminary cost and std cost estimate

    Hi all,
    I tried to find out the reason behind the material price difference I am getting by clicking *COST ESTIMATE* in KKF6N and the price in CK11N . In KKF6N I am getting the price 500 and while doing CK11N I am getting 2000. please let me know how price is being calculated in both the screens.
    Material is -- HALB
    STD Price in Material master -- 200
    moving price -- 50
    stock -- 20
    Costing variant in CK11N --- PPC1
    Costing variant in KKF6N --- YPRM Premilinary PCC
    Regards
    Kumar

    Hi,
    check both costing variants used. Looks like the valuation variant within the costing variant uses moving averagre price in KKF6N and standard price in CK11N to valuate the material quantity.

  • FG Valuation basis - Std Cost estimate or Net sale value whichever is less

    Dear SAP Experts,
    Query 1 -
    Valuation of  Finished goods is done on basis of standard cost estimate (CK24) or Net sale value whichever is less 
    *Net sale value u2013 Net sales ( Sales value  minus Sales deductions)
    Eg : Std cost estimate gives FG price as $100, whereas Net sale value price of FG $80,
          now the client wants FG values should be at $80
    Is there any standard way,  wherein SAP can capture whichever is less i.e standard cost estimate vs Net Sale Value
    Pl let us know the options and which options would be ideal for query 1
    Query 2 u2013 Can we use CRK1 and MR21 to manually change FG price whenever Net sale value is less than std cost estmate price?
    u2022     In case the market value is less than the std cost estimate (CK11n) ,then Is this the approach to manually value FG price using  CRK1 & MR21. 
    u2022     What could be the impacts if we follow this approach
    For Eg: Impact on prev months WIP, Scrap, stock returns etc
    u2022     We simulated CRK1 & MR21 and MR21 entries are posted successfully, however following below warning is the message is showed when CRK1 is executed
                 Note u2013 Material Ledger is not active
    Warning Message
    Deleting current standard cost estimates can cause inconsistencies. Your comments please
    Message no. CK669
    Diagnosis
    u2022     If you delete a current standard cost estimate, the fields for the cost estimate are set to zero in the material master record. If you use the material ledger, the standard prices in the material ledger master data are also deleted when you delete the current standard cost estimate. The material master record for the material thus does no longer contains a current standard price from a standard cost estimate.
    u2022     If you delete an active standard cost estimate, you can no longer determine scrap, work in process and variations for previous periods.
    u2022     In certain countries, it is a legal requirement to maintain records of standard pricing. Therefore, you should check whether you are obliged by law to keep records of your standard cost estimates. Please also contact the relevant accounting and inventory management departments.

    Dear,
    Query 1;
    The FG or SFG will be valuated at Standard Cost there is no provision to enter Net sale value
    Query 2:
    Do not user CKR1 to delete Cost Estimate because it can bring lot of Descripenceies in CO, SAP do not recommend the same.
    You can run the revaluation at the month end or revise your activity rates so that you standard price will be change accordingly and your inventory will be re valuated.
    Hope it is clear, it not then please revert.

  • Display Dept. amount in Std cost estimate cost component view

    Dears,
    During implementation of Repetitive manufacturing, my customer Requirement is to have 4 activity types:

    4- other : like (maintenance .. Etc)
    he wants that so he can know this classification of the above costs liek depreciation per material in the standard cost estimate so my question is:
    Is it applicable to display the above requirement and using only 2 activity types
    Labour and machine
    and use the cost component structure to display the above req ?
    as an example:
    in CK11N : if i switch to cost component view to display the depreciation amount and Etc
