Authorization error in CK24 (Marking standard costs)

Hello,
I have created new cost estimates for certain materials. Next, I need to mark and release the cost estimates. When I execute the Price Update using transaction CK24 I get the following error message in the log:
CK     701   Marking not authorized for period 007 / 2008 in company code 10
CK     705   Of 0 materials, 0 cost estimates were updated successfully
Could someone please let me know what needs to be done to prevent the above error.
Thanks,
Rugmani

Hi,
Change the posting date to last month or change the posting period using Tcode MMPV
Thanks,

  • Goods movement - without Standard cost

    Hello All
    In our existing client system, price control for new material X is maintained as 'S'. We have not maintained the standard price in it yet.
    Ideally if price control is 'S' and you dont maintain a Standard cost of the material. SAP does not allows any goods movement on this material.
    But without standard cost if I am able to raise a Purchase order (which is fine) and also able to do GR (using MIGO).
    The result being GR is done and FI document is posted with PO price + MAP is updated with PO price.
    Is it std SAP functionality or is there is a setting which I have missed.  Please let me know.
    Note: Price control indicator for material type is 'S'.

    Dear Rajeshwari,
    1.You can use the plant specific material status to block the material for production,purchase and inventory management,by
    creating a new key in OMS4 and set the value as B in all these parameters and assign this value in the material master in MRP1
    view of the particular material and set the valied from date.
    2.In case if you want to remove this valu or say you have carried out a standard cost estimate,you can remove the assignment in
    MM02.
    3.For blocking the production order creation for the materials that does not contain a standard cost use this BADI -
    WORKORDER_UPDATE(method during Release).
    Check this link,
    Re: error msg if  no standard cost present  for  Production order target cost

  • CK24 - mark and release with different costing version

    Hi,
    We are currently using standard costing variant PPC1 and costing version 1 to mark and release the standard costs. However when we try to recost the material cost due to price changes, system does not allow to mark & release revised standard cost if we try to mark & release on same day. pls note standard cost estimate is already released for the month. And we do not want to delete existing standard cost estimate. Instead we want to explore other options. We are using 4.7.
    My questions are :
      a) Can recost using costing version 2? CK11N allows to save the costing result. However in CK24 Marking allowance, system does not allow to change Costing Version. is there any config option to change this.
    b) If  we cannot use different cost version, can we update material cost with same costing variant (PPC1) and costing version (1) in this case. However when we tried to do recost with same costing variant & verison on same day, system gives an error 'Material AAAA in plant MMM has a released cost estimate.'
    Any inputs on above issue highly appreciated.
    thanks
    Sunil

    Hi,
    While, you can use any of the Costing versions to mark & release Standard cost estimate, you can release Cost estimate only once in a fiscal period. If you want to release correct prices, then you have delete existing released cost estimates using CKR1 transaction and then re-run CK40N to release.
    Hope this helps.

  • Recursive Loop Error while doing standard cost estimate

    SAP Gurus,
    We are trying to do standard cost estimate on a material and we are getting error because it is going in recursive loop even though we have used "recursive allowed" indicator for item components in the BOM. The error message numbers are CK 730 and CK 740. We are using 4.6c. I have tried the same scenario in ECC 6.0 and still I get the same problem.
    Below is my BOM structure:
    Material 10890345 (has low-level code 012)
            ---> 10867220 (has low-level code 013) and has recursive allowed indicator
    10867220
            ---> 10846733  (has low-level code 014) and has recursive allowed indicator
    10846733
            ---> 10890345 (has low-level code 012) and has recursive allowed indicator
    According to me, the BOM for material 10846733 is causing the problem.
    For some weird reason while doing the costing run for material 10890345, it s not stopping and going in a loop.10890345  and 10846733 should ideally have the same low-level code as they are recursive.
    Please help to provide some solutions at the earliest on how to avoid recursive loop during costing.

    Dear,
    I have 2 things to shear with you.
    The method we followed to solve the iteration is as below
    1.Config change -
    Valuation variant in the costing variant, we changed the sequence as below
    material valuation
    4 planned price 1
    2 std price
    3 Mov ave price
    2. Material master change
    made all the semi finished goods and finished goods
    procurement type = E,
    costing with qty structure,
    Enter the planned price1
    By doing this what happens is
    when system first start the iteration, takes the planned price 1 and start iterating and next time in the second iteration it takes the calculated price from qty structure till it finds the difference between the value calculated is less than .001. Then it gives the result
    Why lot size is important is, in our case in some levels the usage is very less compared to the first material header qty and system used to stop in between  and not even reaching the last level as during the cycle it was reaching less .001 difference. may be in your case it may not be the case...just check
    Please come back after trying this. this was the only last option i had to solve the issue in my client.
    Another alternative is to have a different material for costing purpose to stop the iteration which i will not recommend as we need to do some calculation for each stage and input the cost of dummy material in each stage.
    My client is happy with the result as the difference between manual calculation and system calculation is less then .1%...this is because SAP will not consider the difference beyond .001, but in excel you get as many as decimals you want.

  • Standard cost update errored

    Good Day All,
    Happy new year. The Standard cost update process errored out for specific individual parts with the following being the only error message in the log file:
    No Errorw CSTPSISC.INS_STD_COST (70): ORA-00001: unique constraint (INV.MTL_CST_ACTUAL_COST_DETAILS_U1) violated
    CMLCCU-0999 : Cleaning up
    The only thing I can find anywhere is in the CST MGMT users guide indicating uncosted transactions as the culprit. We have no uncosted or unprocessed transactions. I'm not sure what possible unique constraint on NV.MTL_CST_ACTUAL_COST_DETAILS_U1 is being violated and the error message obviously shows nothing. If anyone has any help I'd appreciate it.

  • Standard cost error..

    Hi Friends
    We have a material with diffrent valuation type per say MFG and procurment etc. During standard costing I found that standard cost is updated only at header level not at child material level, which cause of a loss of the difference cost.
    Stock value is based on the individual valuation type i.e. is correct. But the problem in valuation type -MFG which having price control "S" having rate  which was uploaded at the beginning of the SAP live . Now the standard cost of material has increased  The stock which we are having in plant, evaluated at lower rate where it is consuming all raw materials at inflated/higher price. Why does its happening?
    Please help us in solving this.

    Hi,
    You have to change the standard price, whenever price increase.
    t-code is MR21.

  • Standard cost estimation after goods movement when material ledger is activ

    Hi!
    our client is activated material ledger, for some materials standard cost estimation is done till marking but not released.
    goods movements have been posted for those materials.
    Now system is not allowing to release the standar price for those material in the current period, as material ledger expects same price for entrie period.
    what is the alternative way to update the standard price for those materials ( with out reversing the goods movements).
    regs,
    ramesh

    Hi Ramesh,
    When you are using Material Ledger, after goods movemnets for materials, no need to change the standard cost estimate as Actual costing run will take care to derive the PUP price.
    If there is no standard cost estimation release for sold materials (e.g.FG), you will get an error message duirng the billing document release to accounting. To aviod this error, if you are using split valuation (valuation types) and mixing ratios (CK91N & CK94), try with the below steps:
    Create a new valuation type for the same material
    Crate CK11N & CK94,
    Run CK11N
    Run CK24.
    Then release the billing document.
    Let me know if you need more details.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Kindly Explain the Process of Releasing Standard Cost

    Hello SAP Gurus....,
    Kindly Explain the Process of Releasing Standard Cost..
    Thank you very much!

    Hi,
    Once you save cost estimate without error, then you need to run ck24 .
    Check marking allowance is given for company code for current period.
    then first mark the material/s,plant/s to be mark & execute in test . it will show number of materials sucessfully marked. & remove test run & execute.
    Then release cost by clickin on release button for same selection.
    regards,

  • Routing during Standard Cost Estimation

    Dear all,
    We are executing the Standard Costing using t_code CK11N for a finished product,,,for the same we have maintained BOM, but no routing has been created,,
    so, during execution of Standard Costing system is prompting a msg: No routing could be determined for material AUBF0018 (green indicator not an error msg), so if we try save the costing a success msg: "The cost estimate is being save" is being prompted,, but the standard cost did not get updated in material master.
    what would be the cause? Is routing essential prior to standard cost execution,,, as our Client says that without routing also they could excute/update the standard cost earlier,,, why this problem is occuring? is there any thing need to be defined in customization for routing not to consider during standard cost estimation,
    Please help us in this regard,
    thanks
    Kumar

    Dear Urendra,
    1.After executing the costing run with quantity structure in CK11N and saving the datas,it only saves the cost estimate.
    2.Marking and release should be done using CK24.First the same has to be marked and then using the same T Code you have to
    release it,only after this steps it get's updated in the material master.
    3.In your case you have done only CK11N and not CK24.
    4.Moreover the routing get's picked automatically by the costing variant that you use,in your case even though there is no
    routing,the systems throws the message before saving,but the status will be saved with errors.
    Check with this and revert back.
    Regards

    my period is November and December .
    i want to open the period of august  or September  using tcode MMRV.
    but it is not be allowed.
    so i want to how to open the period of august  or September  .
    if not ,i can't update price using tcode ck24.
    thank you.
    best regards!

    Hi
    Change the costing date periods
    From period - u say start of the period
    It will create cost estimate from the beginning of Aug.  Mark it, when u do so it updates the future std cost in costing 2 view
    Then in Nov u can release the cost
    U cannot open seot until aug is closed and all MM transactions are completed. 
    Hope the above clarifies - pls assign points

  • Issue with Standard Cost estimates / Material Ledger

    Background:
    We have been using SAP for the last 5 years with Material Ledger active. Due to a number of reasons, we have not revised its standard cost estimates from 2001 till now. This means that at month end, we do not mark and release prices as recommended, nor do we mark prices and use dynamic release.
    What Happened:
    A new material called PFSW3 was made. This is a FERT. Before production
    could start my team released the standard cost estimate for this material. Production was now able to proceed without problem. Then, when the time came to sell the material (VF02), SAP again raised the error 'cost estimate not found'. On checking the standard price in MM03, we discovered that the future cost estimate was missing. So we created and marked a new cost estimate in the middle of February 2007.
    Problem:
    When the first sale took place, SAP released the marked cost estimate and posted a Price Change document to adjust for the new standard cost. I understand this was due to dynamic release. Now, when month end came, the system settled all the production orders of material PFSW3 but did not do multi level costing on it.
    Internal Investigation:
    My team has determined that the material PFSW3 has price determination 2 set by mistake. All our other production materials (HALB and FERT) are
    set to price determination 3 in the material master (accounting view).
    Questions:
    To sum this situation up,
    we need to know why the material PFSW3 was not marked closed in its period status (CKM3) at the time of closing through CKMLCP?
    What are the implications of not closing this material in Feb 2007 (current period status is showing 'Quantities and values entered')?
    How can we close this material this month?
    The future cost estimate is again missing for PFSW3 in March 2007 and I
    fear we are going to face more problems as this material is sold to customers.
    Please respond this is an urgent issue.

    Dear Shumyl,
    Please, have a look at Note 645083 - Material period status set to "Closing Entry Completed" that might help to closing your material in previous period.
    Hope it will be useful.
    Regards,
    Flaviano.

  • Can we use two costing variants for standards cost estimate release.

    Hi,
    We have 2 plants (plant 5100 and plant 5200) under company code 5000.
    We have run standard cost estimate(CK11N) for material 98001000027 at plant 5100 using costing variant ZG01 and at plant 5200 using costing variant ZG02. First, we released  standard cost estimate (CK24) for this materia at plant 5100 and set (in marking allowance) costing variant ZG01 and costing version 01. Next time when we are trying to release the standard cost estimate for the same material for plant 5200, it is automatically picking ZG01 as costing variant in marking allowance and it is not allowing to change the costing variant to ZG02 saying Company code 5000: Release already carried out, cancellation not possible, Message no. CK797.
    Is it possible to use two different costing variants for release of standard cost estimate for a material at two different plants at the same company code? If so how?
    Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Bijay

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply again.
    What is the benefit of assigning "Single Valuation Variant same to different Plants" ? In costing variant also we can assign maximum only one valuation variant and this valuation variant will default for all the plants, and hence I dont think it is necessary to assign same valuation variant to different plants.
    My  issue is :
    Example: ( Standard Cost Estimate for material 98001000027)
    Plant - 1
    Material Cost                                             Rs.100
    Labour Cost                                               Rs.50
    Overheads (10% of Labour Cost)                  Rs.5
    (say ,through costing sheet - 1)
    Total Standard Cost Estimate                      Rs.155
    Plant - 2
    Material Cost                                             Rs.150
    Labour Cost                                               Rs.100
    Overheads (20% of Labour Cost)                  Rs.20
    (say, through costing sheet - 2)
    Total Standard Cost Estimate                      Rs.270
    Now, Please explain why we cannot have two Standard Cost Estimates for a material at two different plants? If it is possible to have two standard cost estimates for a material at two different plants, how to take care of  overheads (rate of which varies) at two different plants (plant - 1 > 10% and plant- 2>20%) as we can assign maximum one costing sheet to a valuation variant variant?
    How to map the system so as to meet the above requirement?
    Thanks,
    Bijay

  • Can we use two costing variant for standard cost estimate

    Hi,
    Can we use two costing variant for standard cost estimate of two different materials in the same period ? e.g. Costing variant Z001 for Material code 1000 and Costing Variant Z002 for Material code 2000.
    Here the system is not allowing to change the costing variant in Marking Allowance (t code CK24) for marking and release of Material cost 2000 if the standard cost for Material code 1000 is already marked and released.
    Thanks,
    Bijay

    For a material in a period only one price can be released. Though you cn have two separate costing variants and then calculate standard estimate with that. U can release based on one variant only for a month. Or use MR21 and update the price as per the other variant
    Thanks and Regards
