AUC through Project System

Dear memebers,
Could you give the details how to configure Asset Under Construction through Project System Module.
Looking forward for an reply and positive reply.
Thanks & Regards
Kumar

Hi,
You have to link an asset to WBS.
Set settlement profile for the WBS to allow to settle the costs to assets.
Define settlement rule for the WBS.
Post costs on WBS.
Execute settlement of the costs.

Sub-contracting through Project system.

Hi
Can some one please help me in understanding how Project system (PS) is supporting sub-contracting scenarios.
I am looking for activity sub-contracting and also sub-contracting with Project stock materials.
I am aware of normal sub-contracting through production order and also sub-contracting through MM. I am specifically looking for sub-contracting in PS.
Thanks and warm regards,
Jagadeesh

Hi,
If requirements for subcontract items (or services) are generated automatically from PS just make sure that the right document category is used (subcontract) then any requisitions or planned orders etc. will have the right category.
There is no difference between PP, PS and PM effectively, they all use subcontracting in the same way it is just how the requirement is triggered that is slightly different.
If you need details on how to trigger the right type of requirement through PS then you may need to use one of teh financial forums that cover PS? (is there one?)

Can we change budget status through project setup system status window?

Hi Experts,
Can we change budget status through project statuses window?
Thanks

Hi
Project statuses window will only deal with the status of the project, not the status of the budget.

How to create the Custom project System as Web Project

Hi,
I have created a custom project system using this walkthrough. But
this walk through is targeting Visual C# project system. I need to create the Custom project system as Web project and set the start up page as index.html file. How can I achieve this?
Note:
I have got the Custom project system sample from VS2013 SDK samples(https://mpfproj12.codeplex.com/).
But it demonstrate the Custom console applications only.
- Abbas K

Hi,
So you didn't even follow this walkthrough yet? If you did, how did you do it?
I failed to create such a web project system because I finally messed up my VS experimental instance. But it's possible to create a custom web project system, by following this walkthrough. Someone else has successfully made it, check this
link.
The difference is that you have to use web project type instead of the console application project type. You could copy a web project's .csproj file into the VSPackage project and rename it to xxx.myproj. There's an error in the walkthrough that the AssemblyInfo.cs
file should be put into Properties folder and set the "Build Action" property to Content, "Include in VSIX" to true.

Report Painter Drilldown on Cost Element for Project Systems

I am currently working on a report for Project Systems. I am trying to copy the functionality of the Internal Order summary (60I2-001) into report group 6P3. I was able to copy the whole layout and also the values of 6oI2-001 into a copy of 6PP4-001 but when I double click on "Balance" it is bringin up the ALV report that 6PP4-001 is using. I would like to call another report which looks like 6LS0-001 but contains Project System info made in report painter when I double click on Balance. Is this possible? Please let me know how.

Hi Avinash,
See my replies below.
1 a & B: You are planning Qty on NWA and capturing costs - labor & Equipment on NWA elements.
When you are having elaborated to NWA-Element level, split your total work on each NWA-element and post labor cost. Thus you will have planned Vs actual costs at one place.
coming to equipment cost - are you capturing using PO through GR?.
2.a : Option1- create a separate WBS elements for materials and plan cost at WBS level. That value would be your total planned cost of material procurement as estimated. Under this WBS elements create NWAs and assign the materials. With this set up you can assign material and procure so that will have actual costs coming from GR.
Option 2: Create a one General Cost activity and assign the total planned cost of material on this NWA.
When you assign the material components, diligently you have to reduce the equivalent amount from the general costs activity. Also note that on component screen, you have to check box "Cost relevant" so that material cost will add to Cost NWA. Let the different materials have their own valuation class and have default CEs accordingly. that would not be big issue.
Please discuss with your MM team to get more information. Also my suggestion is to leave blank CE field in configuration.
The option2 is very cumbersome and high risk but one have to be very cautious to reduce the value from Cost NWA in order to sustain the planned material costs whenever they added.
3. I have answered the relevance of Cost relevance check box in above.
Hope above makes sense.
Thanks,
Sudhakar

Asset settlement issue from Project System

Hello everyone,
In SAP, we have tied Project System and Fixed Asset in the sense that for each network/activity in PS we create and link an asset in Asset Accounting. In the Purchase Order, the network/activity number is assigned and all the transactions that occur through this PO (including down payment, its clearing, GR/IR) are then settled on the specified asset when we execute settlement run at month end through CJ88.
However, we have encountered scenarios where an asset was not timely allocated to the network/activity but the transactions were carried out through the PO. When the settlement run was executed, its impact was not visible in Asset Accounting. Later, it was realized and the asset was created and assigned. Once the asset was assigned, all the subsequent transactions through the PO were then being settled successfully. But the problem is with those transactions for which the asset number was initially not assigned.
Is there any program that can be executed to include the impact of the previous transactions. Otherwise, suggest alternatives.
Thanks

Hi Thanks for your reply, But that is not relevent to this issue.
The issue here is -
First 2 documents has value date of 4th period and the amount is 8800
Next document has value date of 5th period and the amount is 1200
Now i am trying to settle 10000(8800+1200) with 5th period date. Its givign an error Settlement amount is greater than Available amount
Will it solve if i settle 4th period with 8800 first and then 1200 with 5t period? or any other process?
Thanks

Customer Downpayment Update in Project Systems

Hi,
I am facing problems w.r.t. update of customer down payment update in project systems. As per standard SAP, after doing customer down payments, this will get updated in project info systems (CN41/CN41N).
Please suggest me to fix the issue.
Best Regards,
Ranjan

hi,
Downpayment request is used to create a billing request through
the t code DP 90.This DR can further be used to create a billing document
say invoice.
Actually you will be using these fundas in Resource Related Billing because that is
where the integration between PS and SD module take place with the help of
DR against actual resource utilized in the project.
I hope this clarifies your question and award points if it is so.
Do not hesitate to ask me if you have any further questions in this.
Thanking you,
Best Regards,
R.Srinivasan

Project Settlement @ Project Systems

Hi Experts
I am working on how to settle a Project in Project Systems. Could you please provide me guidelines how to do it.
I am also looking for the connection/relation between Project Systems and Result Analysis of Product Costing.
Thank you
regards,
S. Habib Pasha.

HI
The moment you say that the settlement to GL account, it is an external settlement i.e CO to FI ( WBS element being a cost object ) . In the allocation you need to have settlement element as an external settlement element with category "22" . When you are settling to a GL account and if it is a cost element then it will ask for a co object still as the system simultaneously needs to post to controlling as well. Yo make this setting for the GL account through automatic account assignment in transaction OKB9.
I this will solve your problem

Deliver through projects

Dear All
Our client is in project system.
we are doing partial delivery of the material from project throgh T-code CNS0.
as a SD module I have to enter price, taxes & excise duties for that material manually in VL02N.
when I am doing billing for that material my invoice getting save but when I am not able to release that invoice for accounting
because he is not able to take Tax code for outgoing taxes.
my isuess is -
   I maintained condition records for the taxes in that I maintained Tax Code.
   here in delivery I am entering condition value manualy
   here how can I enter condition value through condition records
   so that he can pick tax code from record.?
   For other scenarios like trading, MTO I am not facing this problem it mean that there is no any problem in confguration.
   This problem I am getting only in Project.
   So How to resolve this problem.?
   We are using TAXINN
Regards,

Hi,
You can do mile stone billing.
If delivery related billing is a real business compulsion, there are two difficult options:
1. Call the materials in a sales order which is account assigned to the WBS element at item level, keep the material in WBS stock, and do sales order delivery and billing
2. Create a copy control between project delivery and billing document (you are taking a risk as this is not supported by SAP) and do billing referencing project delivery

I am working on implementing SAP project systems for the client
that I am currently with.

Material To be Valuated in Project System

Hi All,
We are implementing PS,MM,SD,FI &CO for a companay which works essentially on engineer to order scenario and using vlauated projec stock & actvity account assigned networks
Inhouse production is through typical assembly processing process - Where input & output materials are transferred through BOM PS Transfer from WBS BOM.
Input materials are issued to activity; work performed by work centers are entered by confirmation; at completion of work out put materials is 'Received from activity'. Both material issue and receipt are done wrt reservation.
When this is done, as per standard process, the cost addition (and hence value addition) is to activity and thereby to WBS element. The output material is not valuated. All the cost(or values) become project value which will reflect in WIP calculation. WIP is calculated as month end process.
At month end if the company wants to know the current asset from project and relevant stocks:
= WIP of project + Inventory value of the mmaterials.
Pl. note that only input materials i.e. raw materials and Bought out materials will have inventory value; the output material will not have any value.
The process is alright and I think we are alos complying to Accounting stanadard for project system - directive from Institute of Chartered accounts - India.
This process was first aceeptable to customer; but now they say - the out put materials should be valuated. So that, when inventory value is taken - it is RM+BO and valuated semifinished +valuaed finished materials
One big reason they say is that they have to show inventory value to the Banks.
Now I need clarification in following points
1. How to valuate the out put material when working only with project system. (apart from using user exit )
2. If this is done, the project cost/WIP calculations will show ups amd downs - as goods receipt with valuated value will be with sign - this will reduced the cost. This will cause variuos problems - almost no standard SAP PS cost report will reflect the reality - WIP can not go up and down...This is illogical.
3. Have you faced similar situation in implementation - that - Banks can not be conviced about this PSway of WIP calculation? Taking into consideration that project implementation is in India - an experienced reply can be very helpful
Thanks and regards
A.Saravanan

Dear Pradeep,
When we work with network/activity/wbs element, Finished material is assigned to activity with sign. This means GR can be done. Technically system treats lke by-product. This material will not be valuated with in put costs...since there is no logic...For our convention, one WBS element, one network or one activity can be used to book all related costs..but still GR will happen with valuation as per valuation variant in NW only. This is quite logical and correct.
So...customer wants to know the cost of manufacturing a complex project assembly..then process under one WBS element..cost accumuated at that WBS element is cost of mfg. I have kept such finihed material std price at Rs.1. (Ideally it should be '0'.). Meaning material will not valuated.
Now if customer wants to knwo the cost ...look at WBs element
If needed, you can do unit costing and update the value in a suitable field in material master.
Therefore, I have kept all the semifinished/finished material std price at Rs.1.
This way..std functions of PS like RA, costforecasting are work properly.
For WIP calculation, this is of standard method and WIP will be current asset of company..this will be acceptable to Banks...one concern I had..cross checked with a Banker.
Another issue was sub-contracting. In India during S/C..we have Delivery challan and legal requirement of excise. We developed a program integrating dc, excise challan, transfer posting, goods issue against reservation and mateials assigned in activity. For user it will appear as one transcation, and system will propmt/list appropriate excise challan No. based on dc no & material as input...(I hope i remember right).
Again here GR of seni/finished naterial was atRs.1. since Service cosst, matarial issue cost get booked at activty.
Thanks and regards

Problem regarding SAP Project System & Material Management

Hello Experts,
please check our process as below:
Order confirms than sales order and project will create
material of BOM is assigned to any activity in project so these material (RM) will be procured and consumed
assign activity for all work done on material to produce FG or SFG.
confirm activity whenever any work done like fabrication done so confirm and its cost comes to WBS.
than we have to subcontracting process so dispach SFG from this and receive after activity done by third party.
than more work is done and confirm these activity. than after all work done we get FG in stock. than delivery from project.
We are facing issue in above business process of our client as below:
1. process of subcontracting using project system as we are not using production planning. how we get any SFG for subcontracting process.
2. if we confirm all activities and consume all Raw Materials than how we will get finished good in our project stock for delivery.
3. after delivery from project how sales order affects with regards to completeness of this sales document.
Please help for this.
Note: Remember we are not using PP cos customer require detailed report of these process and capacity planning etc.
Thanks
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
Assume this is my project structure & attached components. I will procure this components externally. After GRN, This components will be issued to network with 581 Q movement type.
Now we need to assemble this raw material to produce our FG, As these SFG are in our project stock. What we need to do for assembly process through PS.
Also throw some light over benefit of using PS-BOM interface ( CN33 ) for attaching material components.
