Automatic cost estimate while transferring to accounting.

While Posting billing Document from SD to FI, I am getting error as mention below
" The system tried to read the product cost estimate for product 20000050 using the costing variant aZPC4 and the costing version 01.
However, the product cost estimate has the status KF, which means that it contains errors. Therefore the cost estimate is not valid."
When we try to do the cost estimate manually then it estimates without errors.
Waiting eagerly for your replies,
Ariel Desa

First, you need to make sure you cost the material without errors (the status will then be KA)
Then you need to mark and release (*please see note below)  your cost using transaction CK24. The status will then change to FR.
(*PS: If your system is setup to read Future Cost Estimates, you only need to mark the Cost Estimate and not release it.)
You can now release your Billing to FI.
Cheers.

  • Transferring results of material cost estimates to COPA

    Hi,
    I heard that it is possible to transfer the standard prices of materials estimated in material cost estimate to COPA.
    Which transation is used for this purpose?
    Regards,
    Karol

    Karol,
    Incase of made to stock scenario, there is no specific transcation code to transfer the stanadrad price of a material to COPA it gets automatically transferred to COPA when the billing document are released to accounts.
    The variance in the production order if any will be transferred to COPA when theproducion order is finally settled.

  • Sales order cost estimate not happening because of GIT B/S account

    Hi,
    Requirement is to have Goods in Transit account in PGI and reverse it in Invoice no issues iwth it.
    For the same sales order user wants to get cost using sales order cost estimate.
    When i run that am getting following error
    Item 00001 : Cost element 14001212 does not exist in CO area 0010 for 10/07/2011
    Message no. KK689
    Even though i maintain the CE for Balance sheet account with Cost element category 90 its not accpeting.
    Can you please help me on how to proceed for sales order cost estimate.
    Thanks,
    sudha

    hi,
    if you give a balance sheet account in obyc , you will not be able to create a cost elementin category 01 , accordignly system will give error in sales order costing , as its not able to get correct cost element in cost planning.
    if your requirement is just to post  cogs to a balance sheet account which is goods in transit and when invoice is done cogs to be posted.
    you should actually use  revenue based RA functionality on sales order instead of assinging a balance sheet account in obyc.
    in this approach;
    - first assign a p/l account in obyc and create cost element in cateogry 01.
    - create revenue based RA and assign RA key in requirement class.
    - in OKG8 for RA category  WIPR and your ra key assign , goods in transit account and give a offsetting account which is not cost element (credit entry in offsetting account nullify debit in account given in OBYC when GIT is posted , when billing is done system will automatically post a oppsite entry in both account).
    -in OKG8 for RA category COSR give the COGS account and a offsetting account without cost element (credit entry in offsetting account nullify debit in account given in OBYC when COGS is posted).

  • Costing Error while releasing the document to accounts in VF02

    Hi Experts,
    We have an issue with Costing while creating accounting document in VF02
    We have implimented new plant for the existing company code.  We had few sales orders open in existing plant.  There are few sales orders which were open in existing plant (plant 01). During go live of new plant (02) we have changed the plant in the existing sales order from plant 01 to  02 (new plant) and complete the billing. But while releasing to accounts it throws an error "Valuation withj material cost estimate error with product xxxxxx"
    This material has DO NOT COST checked in material master and the price maintained in the accounting views. As per our knowledge if the material has do not cost indicator checked it should  not be relevant for costing. And also we don't have BOM for this material.
    Before the new plant there are many sales orders were created for this material  in the existing plant and successfully released to accounts with the valuation Class 3000
    Our analysis.
    THe same material in the old plant has the valuation class 3000, but the valuation class defined in the material master of the new plant is 7010. Since we have changed the plant in the exsting sales order which was earlier created in plant 01 and in the plant 01 it has valuation class 3000, it this is the reason it is getting conflicted and throwing an error?
    Can you please advise?
    Thanks & Regards
    Veda

    Hi Ajay,
    In KEPC with the combination of sales organisation &, billing type  costing key is assigned for the valuation class 7010 (Finished goods) But costing key is not assigned to valuation class 3000 (raw material). and I saw the same setting in quality. Still we are able to create the acounting document. But in case of production it is asking for cost estimate with the costing keys for the valuation class 7010.. Is any other setting which is missing in Quality as we are able to create accounting documents though the costing key is defined for the valuation class 7010. 
    Can you please advise?
    Thanks & Regards

  • Consumption account - during cost estimate

    Hello All
    While doing the cost estimate for material I am getting the error message 'Consumption account not part of GBB / ZAU"
    I thought it should be from VBR normally.
    ZAU does not seems to be standard to me. Please let me know where can I check this.
    Best Regards

    HI Vijay
    ZAU is not standard.. Only ZOB and ZOF are standard in Z...
    May be in OMJJ some where you have assigned ZAU against some consumption movement types.. especially 261 or any other

  • Sales order cost estimate with GIT account

    Hi,
    Business introduced Goods - in - Transit (Balance sheet account), so PGI will always post to GIT and Invoice it will get reversed.
    For one of the Configuratble material (MTO) scenario we need the Sales order cost estimate to get the Planned cost.
    When i try to execute the sales order cost estimate it says cost element doesnot exist for GIT GL (WHich is right).
    But with maintaining the GIT how to achieve the sales order cost estimate.
    I tried to create CE category 90 for GIT, in Cost estimate am getting error CE 90 not supported for Cost estimate.
    Kindly help this is kind of urgent req for us
    Thanks,
    Sudha

    Hello Ashley
    Yes, if you have done your settings correctly, especially Requirements class set up  (see the documentation link),  then the cost estimate will flow to a condition type in Pricing, usually EK01/EK02 conditions. These conditions are used to calculate sales prices (PR00) in cost-plus (mark-up) scenarios.
    Link: http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/90/ba6da4446711d189420000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    However Profit margin  as calculated in a sales order comes from VPRS condition  (which is based in Material Master) and is the difference of net value and VPRS condition value in normal circumstance.
    Hope other more knowledgeable experts will weigh in.

  • 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.

  • User exit or BADI while billing doc is transferred to accounting.

    I've searched SDN for an issue for which I could not find any psbl help.
    While billing document is saved, according to the config of the billing type automatic posting to accounting happens and I need a user exit while/after this accounting doc is being created. I hv tried the following exits by inserting break-points but none of them work.
    SDVFX001  User exit header line in delivery to accounting
    SDVFX002  User exit for A/R line (transfer to accounting)
    SDVFX003  User exit: Cash clearing (transfer to accounting)

    My purpose is to get some fields from the billing document and update them in the FI document item text.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    In background is triggers this exit, pass your required text here to field "E_SGTXT" and it will appear in accounting item text.
    Insert your text based on the billing transaction else it should not disturb the field, since this exit is used in all place where inventory triggers
    use this user exit
    MBCF0002 - Customer function exit: Segment text in material doc. item
    hope this will help you. all the best

  • FF16 always fails to sync, it always shows "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Incorrect account name or password. Sync will automatically retry this."

    I'm having this problem since few releases ago, whenever I start FF, it always fails to sync, showing this line on the bottom "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Incorrect account name or password. Sync will automatically retry this action". First thought that the prob was incorrect credentials, but I can freely log-in https://account.services.mozilla.com I tried unlinking and linking my device again, it still happens.
    I waited thinking that they'll fix this, from a release to another, today updated to the last version and it still happened.

    Awaiting reply,
    Thanks.

    I am having this problem with FF 19.0.2 on Win 7 Pro. The sequence of events is:
    1. Start Firefox. Get the error bar about incorrect account name or password EVERY time. I close the bar. If I wait a while and then ask FF to try again the error bar reappears.
    2. Click on preferences from the bar, and get a dialog "Your password was rejected by the server, please update your password." I click "update" and then am prompted for the master password for the security device. I enter that and am presented with an "update password" dialog.
    3. Enter my old password and click "update password." Receive error message "Password incorrect, please try again." I click update again and get the message "Your password has been changed."
    4. However now Sync no longer seems to be set up. I go through the setup ritual again, and find I am back where I started.
    I have cleared cookies, tried everything in safe mode, and unlinked and relinked the computer. I have verified I have the right password entered at [https://account.services.mozilla.com/ https://account.services.mozilla.com/] None of this helped. The problem is still there, even in safe mode.
