Backflush with Prel cost estimate still considering standard cost estimate

Hi,
Trying to do back flush with Prel cost estimate . Flagged in REM profile " Post Activities " / Using Data from Preliminary Costing".
However,  FG rate is considred as per standard cost estimate and not as per preliminary cost estimate.
Kindly advise whether any other specific setting is needed.

  • 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

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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,

  • 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.

  • Invenotry Valuation for BOM or regular items in standard cost

    How SAP defines Inventory Valuation for BOM (Parent, Child) with different Inventory types?  If Parent Items is Inventory and Sales only but Child Items are Inventory and Purchase Items then the inventory value will base on each Item Cost or....
    When you use Inventory Good Receipt the Item Cost grayed out that forced you to use Unit Price in Inventory Master Data file for this transaction and reflected to the Inventory Valuation Report. Is this the way for "Standard Cost" method? 
    For Standard Cost method, the Item Cost will be used from regular SO, Delivery and Invoice only?

    Inventory value will be base on each Item Cost when you use Standard Cost method.  It will apply to all marketing and inventory document.
    As for BOMs, they are only templates.  You could assign any price lists to them.  Therefore, until the production order created, any cost of BOM would only be a reference.

  • Custom SAP report used to display an average standard cost per material.

    Hi All,
    I need to implement a report with the following functionality,
    This is a custom SAP report used to display an average standard cost per material.  Standard cost data is stored in SAP at the Material/Plant level.  This report will gather the individual Standard Costs at each applicable plant (restricted by selection screen input and additional logic specified in more detail in the u201CReport Fieldsu201D section) for applicable Materials (restricted by selection screen input; if not specified all materials should be returned) and calculate an average standard cost for each material.  The corresponding Currency and Base Unit of Measure will also be displayed.
    Additionally the relevant u201CCommodity Code/Import Codeu201D information should be displayed for each material returned.  This attribute is also stored at the Material/Plant level.  To determine the value of this field for each relevant material, the report logic must retrieve the values stored for each plant.  If all values are the same, the value can be output to the report.  If not all values are equal, a message u201CNot Consistentu201D should be output.  It should be noted that if all values are u201Cnull,u201D a null value should be returned in the report.
    Can any one provide me with sample code for the same??
    Thanks Debrup.

  • How to calculate fixed cost for by-product in costing run?

    Dear,
    We want to have some fixed cost calculated for by-product B in costing run.
    Our current practise,  we only calculate the delivery cost as variable cost for this by-product B in the costing run for B. The by-product B is a component in the BOM of finish product A.
    However, we need some fixed cost to be countered in for by-product B, which can be by controlled by us.
    Any thought?
    Thank you all in advance.
    Christina.

    Dear,
    You have to maintain  BOM Usage-Costing-6 i.e., Costing BOM with all your required  Fixed Cost related Material components and assign it  in the by-product Material Master to include the Fixed Cost in by-product Standard Cost Estimate.  Based on this setting, system will calculate Standard Cost Estimate with this Fixed Cost and display in the related reports.

  • Raw materials on MAP with split valuation used in standard cost estimate

    We have a few raw materials which are purchased from different vendors and of different brands. We have opened split valuations for these raw materials. These raw materials are later used in manufacture of different finished goods. We use MAP for raw materials and Std. for finished goods. What configuration and processing steps will be required to run standards cost estimate and what will be standard price for a finished good considering the following example:
    Material X is finished good
    Raw Material A with split valuation @ USD 5 (brand aplha)   &   USD  10 (brand beta)
    Raw Material B without split valuation @ USD 1
    It is expected that we used brand aplha 60% of the time and brand beta 40% of the time and production batch size is usually 100 Kg.
    Please reply
    Edited by: Chris SAP on Sep 29, 2011 7:56 AM

    hi chris
    Hope you have configured the material A for split valuation. while calculating standard cost estimate for the material C. through ck11n, the system will pick up the header price from material master.
    But here you are saying that you have chances of using the material A, 60% of brand alpha and 40% brand beta
    Instead of using split valuation use mixed costing concept. create the material A with separate Ids and create two boms one with alpha and the other with beta.
    create procurement alternative in CK91N and mixed ratio with Ck94 and release the mixed cost estimate
    please go through this thread also

  • Problem with rounding in standard cost estimate.

    Hi All,
    Happy 4th of July!
    I have a problem with the standard cost estimate where the system try to calculate overhead costs (from costing sheet) with a fix percentage (9.7%) to the value coming from material consumption costs element.
    Let say I have $1.71 material consumption and the overhead rate of 9.7%
    The real calculation should be (1.71*0.097) = $0.16587
    But at CK11N screen, it shows only $0.16 (two decimal rounding)
    Is there a way that I can bump the rounding to at least 3 decimal point to make it more accurate?
    Very appreciate any input you guys can share. Thank you.
    Charitha

    Hi Chari ,
    My experience says that you can use only 2 decimals ..
    Moreover , please have a look into SAP Note : 639410 - CK11N, CK13N: Message CK869 due to rounding
    differences.
    There a some source code corrections also on rounding differences- check if it helps you also...

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Target sost calculation not considered Current cost estimate in KKBC_ORD

    Hi All,
    We have an case wherein it observed that target cost calculation on SFG is wrong
    in KKBC_ORD where system does not considered the current cost estimate.
    We have all the necessayry customisation in place for Target cost version 0 for current cost estimate.
    Below is detailsed case.
    1 Process Order created in Dec 2011
    2 Price Released to Mat master  on 01.01.2012
    3 Goods movement,Operation confirmad Material Issues, FG qty delivered @ std cost 0n 04.01.2012
    4 Order Technically completed (TECO)
    5 KKS1/KKS2 will be done at month end.
    We know that In Process order, after deliver of FG the target cost on FG is not getting calculated,target cost will be updated only after calculating variance. it does
    not calculate after delivery of finished goods, On Execution of KKS1/KKS2  variance will be calculated the target cost on FG and will be updated.
    In process  order (COR3 --> Cost analysis) Target cost ,Actual cost and Planned cost are calculated based on the following:
    Total Plan Cost = Std Cost the material required to Produce X Planned Qty of the required material
    Target Cost = Std Cost the material planned to Produce X Std Qty of material required to produce, for Produced Actual Qty
    Actual Cost = Std Cost the material planned to Produce X Actual Qty of material consumed, for Produced Actual Qty
    The variance is calculated on SFG and assemblies based on the difference between actual and target cost in KKBC_ORD. During creation of process order, the plan cost
    will be updated with the valid standard cost upon the creation.
    The target cost on SFG and Assemblies is only generated when there is good receipt from production order into inventory.
    The target cost is generated using the valid / recent costing run for the correspondence SFG in KKBc_ORD.
    All other target costs showed in COR3 (Menu Go to > Costs > Analysis) or KKBC_ORD before doing KKS1/2 is only statistical- However in our case Traget cost calculated
    on SFG in KKBC_ORD not relevant with current cost estimate.
    However Actual cost and Planned cost Calculated correctly.
    Actual Cost= Current Standard costof the materilal(5.624,88)X Actual Qty (13.693)=77.021,48
    Planned cost= Std Cost the material required to Produce (6.572,12) X Planned Qty (12.415)= 81.592,87
    However Target cost is not considering the current cost estimate;It should be - Current Standard cost of the materilal(5.624,88)X Target Qty(13.958,124)=78512.07.
    But Errorneously Target cost is showing 67.383,59 which causing unfavorable variance to standard.
    It should be 78512.07-77.021,48= 1490.59 favourable var to standard in KKBC_ORD.
    Any help,suggestion and input would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks with Regards
    Subrata

    hi
    target cost is your standard cost* actual confirmed quantity, not the standard quantity required
    the variance calculated will be always  the actual debit to the production order- actual credit of the production order
    your actual credit  for the process order is  std cost* actual quantity delivered to the inventory= Current Standard costof the materilal(5.624,88)X Actual Qty (13.693)=77.021,48
    actual debit to the process order is total actual cost which you can see in COR3 report .
    By the way for which period you have calculated variance, target cost will be calculated based on that months standard cost

  • CO-PA Cost Component do not match with Standard Cost Component Values

    Dear Members,
    The CO-PA Cost Components (as mapped through KE4R), do not match with Standard Cost Component values for the Group Currency. In local currency the values match.
    System is correctly picking up VPRS value, both in local currency and Group Currency, which is equal to the total of Standard Cost Components however, it is the Value Fields linked to the Standard Cost Components in Group Currency that do not match.
    In KE40, the Indicator is 4:Released Standard Cost Estimate matching Goods issue Date.
    I have verified KEPH/CKMLPKEPH tables. The values are same as that of VPRS.
    Any help/clues?

    Hi,
    In case of billing documents the group valuation approach is managed in the data structures of the legal valuation in additional value fields. To control costs and revenues in the different views separately, you must create additional value fields and assign them to the data structures.
    The field contents must be filled via the CO-PA user exit, they cannot be entered by assigning conditions to value fields. The profit center valuation is updated in a separate ledger. No separate value fields are necessary.
    The exit to be used is function module 'EXIT_SAPLKEII_002' ( enhancement COPA0005 ). Within the exit you have the complete SD data avaialble in the tables 'T_ACCIT' and 'T_ACCCR'. The conditions can be found in T_ACCIT and the corresponding values ( linked via 'POSNR' ) in table T_ACCCR. The PA line item and the corresponding SD item in table ACCIT
    can be mapped via the line item field 'RPOSN' and the field 'POSNR_SD' in table ACCIT.

    Hello Subbu,
    In this case, you need to put the status as "B4" Blocked in costing 1 view of material master, when you create the costing view and change it to "03" status when you released the cost estimate.
    Please note that this field can be overwritten in MRP view also. Hence please get the good control of material master and good coordination with PP team to achive this.
    Please let me know if you require any clarifications.
