Allocate distribution costs to a batch

I am dealing with a scenario in which split valuation X (batch) is activated, that is, inbound goods are being valuated separately per batch.
My question in such scenario is whether I could allocate distribution costs (or any other expenses) to each batch separately since I would like to analyze the cost and profitability of each batch.
It could be really complex like the following example illustrates:
I procure two batches from suppliers which are registered in MIGO at the time of Goods Receipt. Then each batch is assigned to a different delivery document. When preparing the transport, one batch will be delivered to one customer and the other batch will be delivered to another customer. However both batches will be transported in the same truck according to a shipment document and at a certain point of shipment's route, the first delivery (batch 1) will be delivered. Afterwards, the truck will progress to the second customer platform for deliverying batch 2.
In this case I would like to maintain cost traceability at batch level, that is, somehow I would allocate transportation costs to each batch. Same happens for other logistical costs.
Briefly, could I have a batch as a cost object?
Many thanks

Cost for a Batch

Hi,
How can i view the cost for a Batch in OPM.
We have a form in descrete manufacturing as WIP Value summary to view the cost for a Job.
is there any form in OPM 11.5.10.2?

Hi
There is no specific form available in OPM to view the cost of a Batch.
But there are two types of Costs can perform the batch cost, one is Standard costing and Average costing. To know the cost of batch we need to perform few steps then you can see the results of the batch cost.
If you want furhter more details on how to perform step to get cost of the batch, I could share with you.

Hi,
Anybody can guide me and thro' some light on how can i allocate the cost to a Co-Product from the main header materials.
What is the use of the tab " JOINT PRODUCT " in costing view in the material master,in the same tab we have something called source structure and equivalance number.How can i use it.
I want to alocate the CO Product cost in the ratio of 7:2:1.
I mean to say that allocation to main material A is 70%,Material B is 20% and Co Product is 10%.
How can i bring this into SAP system.
We are in REIM profile..i.e REPETATIVE MANUFACTURING.
I looking for your valuable feedback and suggestion....
Thnx in advance..
God Bless

Hello,
SAP system has provided excellent & user friendly tools for co-product / joint product costing via source structure and equivalence number. You need to maintain those source structure, equivalence numbers etc. (Your %s u2013 70%, 20 % are equivalent numbers)
For more details, refer to following link:

Distribution cost issue

Hello sap,
dollars of currecy means ex: 1000000 dollar of distribution cost have been incorrectly assigned to Account 250118, beginning on August 12th, 2010.
They should have been assigned to Account 420411.
The correct Account reference is included in the configuration for the company code 1234 Shipment Costing functionality, as far as I know.

Hi Preeti
If you want to move cost from one GL account to another, you wil have to pass an FI JV (F-02) Crediting the wrong GL account and Debiting the correct GL account
If the GL is marked for "Post Automatically" in FS00, remove the tick for the time being and restore it once you do F-02

Allocate Landed Cost to Goods Receipt before Item is sold

Hi
Our Client would like to have a prompting to remind User to allocated Landed Cost before selling the Item as Users always make mistake and sold items before allocating landed cost to Goods Receipt resulting wrong posting of accounting entries to variance accounts.
Kedalene Chong

Hi,
we are discussing this topic also here in Austria, as a customer usually ships the goods the same day when having received, and the AP Invoice is posted some days later.
Our suggestion is a batch job that is used for period closing, which checks all shipments that were made before having posted the regarding AP Invoice, to bring a control report that sums the entries according to Item "Set G/L Accounts by" and the setup of freight costs for distribution method, so that this amounts can be balanced manually (or even better automatically) within G/L from variances to the according COGS accounts.
Basically we need the distinction between preliminary costs (goods are shipped without having posted AP Invoice) and final costs (AP Invoice is posted).
For the moment only manual journal entries from G/L account variances to COGS is possible.

Actual cost of FG batch

Hi all GURU's,
I had posted this thread earlier also but i had not got any reply on this. Hence I had closed that thread & now posting my query with this thread.
Please if anybody can throw some light on this..........
My BOM structure is as follows. The BOM is the multilevel BOM as shown below.
FG-----SFG 1 + RM 1 + RM 2
SFG 1----SFG 2 + RM 3 + RM 4
SFG 2-----SFG 3 + RM 5 + RM 6
SFG 3-----RM 7 + RM 8
All the FG, SFG & RM'S are the batch managed. All the fg & sfg's are maintained at the standard price in the material master.
Now assume that SFG1, SFG2, SFG3, batches are manufactured at the cost which deviate too far form the material master. This may be because excess/lower raw material cosumption & wide variation in the actual activity.
Now I want to know the cost of FG based on the actual costs of SFG & RM"S batches used. How can I do this in SAP.
Reagards,
MHP

Hi Rajesh,
I have tested what you had suggested in this thread,
Following are the findings
1) All the batches of the SFG & FG are valuated at mvg. avg. price. mentioned in the material master even if i am issuing double than planned material as well as double the actvity.
2) Since the batch of SFG is not valuated at the actual cost, the actual cost is not passed to the higher level.
One thing I can share with you is the warning messge which i am getting while making GR for the order by mb 31 which is as follows---
Material COLL FG plant XYZ1 valuated with valuation type instead of TEST2000
Message no. CK840
Diagnosis
Material COLL FG in plant PT01 cannot be valuated with valuation type TEST2000 because no split valuation is ever possible for that material in this plant.
System Response
The material is valuated with valuation type .
But in OMWC setting, Valuation Cat.-X Automat.(Batch) is active for the plant & material is assigned to the same Valuation Cat.-X in the material master. Since val cat is X there is no question of valuation type. As well as in OMWO split mtl val is active.
PLease suggest what can be wrong ???

MHP

How to see the cost of a batch

Dear Experts
How do I see the cost of a produced batch of material, confirmed from a Process Order?

When the order is displayed COR3, & then I go through this path: Goto >> Cost >> Analysis, I get a report in this format;
Cost Elem Total act.costs Target/actual var Currency
421303             453,600               453,600                  NGN
424301          3,600,000-           3,600,000-                NGN
                       3,146,400-           3,146,400-
The info in the first row is for 261 movement type (goods issue), while the info on the second row is for the 101 (goods receipt)
From this details kindly tell me what is the cost of production?
Is 453,600 (which is the monetary value of the total input quantity) the cost of production? or
Is 3,600,000- (which is the monetary value of the total output quantity) the cost of production? or
Is 3,146,400- (which is the monetary value of the difference between total input qty and output quantity) the cost of production?
After process Order confirmation and TECO, what will be the effect when I carry out Order settlement ko88?

PCM 10 Export Cost data via batch processes (BOM model)

Hi there,
Is there a way to schedule batch processes to export PCM Cost data ?
Regards.

Hi,
In fact, the Console utility provided with PCM enables tasks to be run from a console, so no user interaction is required.
It’s initiated by running the PCMConsole program file located by default in the C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\PCM.
Using command-line statements, you can establish “jobs” (or scheduled tasks) to run commands against the various applications at a time of your choice.
You may create the required commands manually, or alternatively, use the Console Wizard utility, which is provided to assist you with generating and correctly formatting Console commands and command files.
The program is run in conjunction with a series of commands and parameters that are executed on the PCM model server. Commands can be run:
• from the command line or
• from within a batch file.

Siwar

How to Allocate service cost against Sales order in Billing

Hello Team,
Need guidance to map below scenario:
Customer has placed a PO for machine. Aganst this PO, Sales Order created and machine is delivered to customer.
After this he was not satisfied with colour and requested to change the colour of machine. He agreed to extra cost for this.
We created a Service PO against this sales order and repainting has been done by service vendor.
Before final billing I need to add this cost of repainting in final billing document.
Can you please guide, how this cost can be taken in final billing document.
Is I have to maintain one more line item in Sales order for repainting?
Waiting for reply.
Mahesh

I copied the standard order header workflow and the "Book Order, Manual" workflow to custom workflows. I then modified the "Book Order, Manual" workflow to put another completely custom workflow (call this "Approvals") in between the "Book Eligible" and "Book" steps.
The "Approvals" step assessed the sales order, changed the order header to the pending approval flow_status_code, and sent out the appropriate notifications. The "Approvals" step returned a Complete/Incomplete where complete would proceed to "Book" and incomplete would go back to "Book Eligible." The new workflow was then assigned to the order type needed. I don't still have access to that environment (job change) or I would give more definite instructions.

Multiple Cost Center Change Batch Upload

Hi,
I need to update the data of multiple cost centers. I have tried using BDC/ transaction KS02 and BAPI_COSTCENTER_CHANGEMULTIPLE. However, I encounter problems with cost centers with different validity periods when changing the heirarchy of cost centers. Your input will be highly appreciated.

Hi Christian,
Updating cost centers with single validity period say, 10/25/05-12/31/9999, isn't a problem. However, when changing the heirarchy area, CSKS-KHINR, of cost centers with multiple validity periods, meaning with intervals, i.e. 08/01/2005-09/30/2005 and 11/01/2005 - 12/31/9999, neither BDC nor BAPI works. With BAPI, even the gap where the cost center does not exist is updated while in the BDC of tcode KS02, it gets stuck.
I hope I made the problem clear to you. Hoping you could help.

OC4J license / distribution costs?

Hi!
If I develop an application that uses OC4J, what is the licensing and cost on distributing OC4J with the application?
Thanks!
Dave Venus

You need to check out the Oracle Partner Network: Oracle sells embedded licences to ISV partners so that they can ship the product for dedicated use by their application.
I don't think there's a production version of OC4J standalone though - you would sell the Oracle App Server Java Edition (which is OC4J, OHS, management tools etc) instead.

AFAB - Ordinary Depreciation Distribution Cost Centre wise

Dear All
I need to distribute ordinary depreciation values for each cost center wise in GL.
I have setup,
1. Cost Centers in Asset Masters
2. Create GL account with cost element without assigned default cost center
3. ACSET configuration for Cost Centers (KOSTL)
When I processed AFAB that given an error as
Account 5012117 requires an assignment to a CO object
when assigned default cost center to cost element then AFAB is running and depreciation value accumulated one cost center in GL.
Please advice to over come this problem.
Thanks
Madhawa

HI
1. In ACSET, did you choose "Depreciation posting" or "Acquisition posting" against KOSTL
You should choose both i.e. Create 2 entries for KOSTL in ACSET
2. In ACSET, hope you have checked the check box in the last column

Distribution of Mailbox Move Batches

Hello
We are in the middle of an Exchange Server 2007 > 2013 Migration.
We have a single DAG with 4 Mailbox Servers, 2 active, 2 passive between sites (fast link)
We tend to manage Mailbox Moves remotely using ISE & "new-migrationbatch" etc etc.
There is no information on the batch as to which Mailbox Server is actually doing the work of moving the mailbox and I can only presume that the Server hosting the active TargetDatabase of the mailboxes that are being moved will be.
We wondered if anyone had any recommendations or experience of running migration batches from the Servers themselves, adn if we did if we could expect to see performance improvements?
Thanks

Hi Rob,
Based on my knowledge, Exchange 2007 Mailbox server can't communicate with Exchange 2013 Mailbox server directly. They communicate with CAS server at first, and then the Mailbox server. For more information about communication between Exchange 2007 and Exchange
2013, here is a blog for your reference.
