By-product in cost componet structure

hi
how i can add by-product in cost component structure. which account will be assign profit & loss or balance sheet.
imdad

Hello Imdad,
You should maintain the GL account that is credited when a By Product is generated. This is the the GL that is defined in GBB / AUF. You should review your settings. If you have mentioned only one account without reference to a valuation class in GBB / AUF and if that is already maintained in OKTZ then no need to maintain further. If you want to classify by valuation class then you should create a valuation class for By - Product and have a account called 'Cost of Goods Manufactured - By Products' or 'Factory Output of Production - By Products' and assign the same in GBB / AUF in OBYC and create a new line in cost component structure (OKTZ) and assign it there as well.

Error in product costing cost component structure with quantity...

Dear sap gurus
I am creating material cost estimation with quantity structure while doing in T CODE CK11N the following error is coming Message no. 213 Cost component structure z9 is not active. But I am not using the particular Cost component structure z9. I am using the standard Cost component structure 01 and I have activated it at OKTZ and the z9 is deactivated. Plz, tell me where I can fix this error
Awaiting for you kind reply.
Naveen

Hai MoH
Thanks for yuor reply, yes you are correct. i have checked in OKKN where i found that the cost component structure z9 is assigned to my co. code that is not mine i am using the standard cost componet structure. plz, tell me where i should go and change the assignment plz, give the T.CODE

Cost-apportionment structure using co-products

Hello
We want to use co-products in our production process.
Im not sure how to define the cost-apportionment structure in the header material. I need to define 95% - 5% apportionment structure for two co-products in a Production order
I mark flag "co-products" in the principal material, then press boton "joint production"
I enter the following data:
Number 001 - Descripcion -Source structure (Z1) (Source structure has Source Tye U (?))
then I press boton "equivalence numbers" and in the dailogbox which appears, I put the two products-codes with their ratio
Material: 1411131 - 95
Material: 1401212 - 5
I expect this ratio to be used upon settlement of the "deltas" in the production order upon month closing.
Im not sure I have to use the field "Assignment"
Thanks for any input
Aart

Hi Art ,
I think what-ever you have mentioned is correct ..
Please ensure that you have also defined CO-Product in your BOM and its set up correctly..
Now carry out your standard and actual costing process and revert back if you face any diffulties..

Cost component structure in CO-OM Reporting

Hi there,
we want to run cost center reports, that show us the balance on a cost center per primary cost element, after we have allocated some of the costs from the cost center into production orders.
I thought this can be achieved by having the tariffs we use for the internal activity allocation been broken into their cost component structure so that on the cost center, the respective primary cost elements are debited by the activity allocation.
However, this is not happening in my system. While the activity tariffs are correctly calculated with a component split (according the 1SKS-001 report), the standard cost center report still shows the debit on the cost center with the secondary cost element of the activity.
Does this mean I cannot see the component split of my activities in normal OM reporting?
Thanks
Kai

Hi
Make cost splitting structure and assigne to Production Cost Center.
Run Cost splitting KSS2 for cost splitting according to activity types.

Cost component structure - cost elements for FERT and HALB (TC:OKTZ)?

Hi all,
our cost component structure has the following structure (TC: OKTZ):
1 Raw materials
2 Human ressources
3 Production
4 Material Overhead
5 Production overhead
6 external activity
(this settings are conform with SAP standard - copy from cost comp. structure 01)
To cost comp 1 "raw material" we assigend the relevant (primary) cost elements (consumption raw mat, e,g, steel, wood...).
My question is: In case we insert/post e.g. a semi-finished product to the production order from stock (accor. bill of material), where (in which cost comp.) do I have to assign the relevant cost element? I guess this should be the account "inventory change unfinished product? (maintain in TC: OBYC for transaction BSV according val. class)
Is it correct to assign this cost element to cost comp structure "raw material", because actually it is a semi finished product which is picked up from stock to convert /process further? To problem is, if this cost element is not assigned I get an error in CK11N/CK40N
I hope my wording is not to abstract...
Thanks in advance...
best Regards

Hi..
You don’t need to consider the cost element of production order settlement and production notification.
Cost component structure need the cost element of production order’s debit.

Cost element is not assigned to cost component structure

Dear Team,
While doing the settlemnt through KO88 system is showing the message like below
Cost element 433001 is not assigned to a cost component in CostCompStruct Z1
     Message no. MLCCS 010
Diagnosis
     You have activated the actual cost component split.
     No cost component has been assigned to cost element 433001 origin group
     in cost component structure Z1 for chart of accounts XXX. The system is
     unable to assign the value to a cost component.
System Response
     You cannot carry out posting.
Procedure
     Check whether for this operation the value to be posted is to be
     assigned to this cost element.
User has done tchnically completed from CO side .But system is showing the open status in FI.
So we have suggested to the user to do settlemt through KO88 system is showing the above message .Half of the production orders we can able to close through Ko88. Some of the PO we are facing the above issue.The concern GL account showing by the system is maintained as a sundry receivables a/c.
Please advice how to proceed further.
Thanks for the consideration.
Regards,
Suma

Dear Sir,
System is showing the GL account is not relating the cost element a/c ,The concern account belongs to Sundry receivables account.
The configuration is done correctly with all expenses GL a/c in OKTZ as well WIP accounts assigned corrctly in OKG8.                How the system is showing this account which i am not understanding.
Please advice to resolve.
Thanks for the consideration.

Change in finished product inventories / cost components

Hello,
We are in the process of implementing SAP and couldn't get an answer to the following.
Our understanding is that the production cost of each finished product is calculated by SAP based on cost components. After manufacturing, the finished products are transferred to the finished product inventory. The change in finished product inventory account (say 713000) is credited with the production cost of the product.
Instead of having this single 713000 account impacted, we would like to have the change in finished product inventory broken down into several, say 713001 raw material component in finished product, 713002 labour cost component in finished product, 713003 subcontracting cost component etc. Can we get SAP to credit automatically each of these accounts based on the cost component (or group of cost components) information in the system ? How should we configure it ? (is there a link between the cost component or group of cost component and the account)
Many thanks for your help
Best regards

Hi Vincent,
In my understanding you are not clear with the requirement and therefore you are struggling with SAP. Please understand the following:
1. The posting of GL accounts are determined by valuation class in material master. So if you want to post on different GLs please define those many valuation class in MM and assign the correct Valuation class to FG goods.
2. When you confirm the production, SAP post the goods issue (i.e. material you define in BOM) by debiting the Material consumption account and credit the invertory accounts. And also post the goods receipt posting by debiting the FG inventory account and credit the Factory output a/c.
3. Here you have to convience your client that it is best pratice to have one inventory account for one material type, like RM inventory, SFG inventory and FG inventory. Normally we classify the consumption posting in different GLs like Material consumption, Labour consuption, Overhead utilization etc. and that you can define in your cost component structure by grouping the relevent GLs in given cost component items.
4. You have to explain them how SAP works in product costing and how GL documents are posted. You have to also explain them the posting impact in P&L and BS.
I will suggest that you should rediscuss the requirement and explain them the SAP way of valuation and posting. It is a big change management issue and as a CO consultant it is most challenging task.
Thanks and all the best,
Vivek

Assign the cost component Structure to Plant/Co Code

hi
can u tell how can i assign the COST COMPONENT STRUCTURE TO THE PLANT AND THE CO CODE...
REGARDS

Hi,
This is part of Product costing configuration and done with T-code OKTZ. Here, there is a separate diaglog for Assignment of Org units --> cost component structure.
Here, for a particular co. code and all the plants under this Co. code or for only a certain plants and further to a specific costing variant the assignment is done to the cost component structure effective from certain date.
Good Luck!!!

Activity Price in Cost Component Structure

Hi,
After costing run I have updated Activity Price in KP26.. I want to see latest activity price in Cost component structure e.g. Labour Activity and Machine Activity..cost for this a) Is it require re-costing run? b) how can we calculate activity price? e.g. total base qty/confirmed qty *no.of hrs. can you please corret me my formula I have maintain in KP26 capcity 500 and fixed price 10. I am able to see machine hrs. 6 in Resource data..
Thanks
Srinu

Hi Srinu,
Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
Use S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).

Activity types&Cost Component Structure?

Hello All,
I would like to ask following**
*Can production cost centers have three activity types Produced Quantity, Machine Hour, Labor hour? Will the confirmation of these tree act types on work center form Production Cost of Material. Question is regarding line whish will have name Production Cost in Cost Component structure /OKTZ/*
Can only Primary Cost Component Split for Preliminary Costing be set and will it be visualized as itemization during precosting in CK11N? Which assignments regarding this have to be done?**
Best Regards,
Poly P**

Hi
I guess you need to educate your users a bit as to how the costing works as well as what is possible in SAP
Having these many itemizations is neither possble, nor recommended
The expenses like Discounts, Maintenance, Supporting costs etc are intended for analysis at Trial balance level.... These things are overheads from costing point of view.... So, you need to logically group them
Material consumption cost is very much possible provided the material components are part of the BOM
Direct Costs like Labor, electricity - you need to be create activity type for them.. ANd maintain a plan rate in KP26 for the same... You can not show original cost element in itemization for them
Other costs mentioned by you are indirect costs - Which are absorbed as overheads... Either as a % of other costs (Material + labor + electrivity) or as a rate per hr of Labor, etc

OKTZ - Cost Component Structure

Good day.
I have some doubts regarding cost element assignment to the cost component structure. I understand that I should consider those cost elements that represent internal activities, external activities, material costs and overhead, however I am not sure if I shall also consider the cost element of production order settlement and production notification (the latter correspond to the account that credit the production order).
Regards.
Juan

Hi..
You don’t need to consider the cost element of production order settlement and production notification.
Cost component structure need the cost element of production order’s debit.

Differance betwen Variable & Fixed and Variable in Cost Component Structure

Dear All,
What is the difference between the Variable and Fixed and Variable for the cost component for the Cost Component Structure.
why we have to take Raw Material Cost Componennt always Variable. Is any help?
Regards

fixed cost is irrespective the level of production the cost remains same. or upto certain level of production the cost the cost will ramain same and after the cost may increase.
example: rent of the factory building or office buildings remains same irrespective of the operations level.
variable is with every change in the level of production the cost change.
example: raw material used in manufacturing finished product. The more finished products the more is the consumption of raw material.

Difference between cost component structure and cost component split

can anyone explain me the difference between cost component structure and cost component split with simple example
thanks

Hi ,
cost component structure
Definition
Number that identifies the structure.
Use
In Product Cost Controlling, the cost component structure determines how the results of material costing are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each material according to cost component (such as material costs, internal activities, external activities, and overhead). If the material is used in the production of another material, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material costs, internal activities, external activities, overhead, and so forth) remains in the system when the costs are rolled up.
In the cost component split, you also define the following for material costing:
Which part of the costs are fixed costs
Which costs are
cost of goods manufactured and what are sales and administration costs
Which costs are relevant for stock valuation, commercial inventory valuation and tax inventory valuation
When the cost component structure is assigned to the organizational units, you can specify that two cost component splits are created:
Main cost component split
This is the principal cost component split, meaning that it is used in the standard cost estimate, which can be used to update the material master. The main cost component split can be a cost component split for cost of goods manufactured or a primary cost component split.
Auxiliary cost component split
This can exist in addition to the main cost component split, and is not used in the standard cost estimate. It can be used for analysis purposes, in that it can be displayed with the cost estimate and passed on to Profitability Analysis.
In Cost Center Accounting, the cost component structure determines how the results of the activity price calculation are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each activity type of the cost center according to components (such as material costs and labor costs). If an internal activity allocation is carried out, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material, labor costs, and so forth) is retained at cost rollup.
If the cost component split is not to be retained, you can create a switching structure for the cost component structure for Cost Center Accounting. In the switching structure, you specify which sender cost component goes into which receiver cost component.
<b>require a cost component structure to calculate prices using cost component split.</b>
For each cost component structure you define a component such as energy, personnel, or raw materials. The components combine all costs occuring for a particular cost element area. In this way, you ensure greater cost transparency in activity price calculation when putting together the activity type prices - for example, it becomes easier to find how much of the activity price is taken up by the material costs.
In activity allocation, the cost component structure remains constant, meaning that the receiver takes on the sender cost elements and that the allocated costs are posted in the same cost components in the receiver as in the sender.
A cost component structure can have a maximum of 40 defined cost components.
Cost components are assigned to cost elements. You thereby determine which cost elements go to which rows in the structure, and how these components are updated in price calculation.
Hope ths helps
Please rewad points

Production order cost estimate

Hello,
what is prodcution order cost estimate.

SR,
Production order cost estimate is the estimate of all the costs likey to be incurred on the completion of the production oreder.
Following is the way described how tp do this in SAP.
Creating a Cost Estimate for a Production Order Without Quantity Structure
Choose Accounting-> Controlling->Cost Object Controlling->Product Cost by Period->Planning->CO Production Order->Create/change plan.
Enter the order and choose ENTER.
The dialog box Copy cost estimate appears. The system proposes a costing variant through the planning profile. Choose a costing variant.
If you want to copy costing items using the reference and simulation costing functions, enter either a base planning object or the material and control parameters for a cost estimate without quantity structure.
Enter the lot size that you want to use for costing, and choose ENTER.
The system displays the list screen of the cost estimate without quantity structure.
Enter the costing items.
Save the cost estimate.
If you have entered a costing sheet and (if applicable) an overhead key in the master record of the production order, the system calculates the overhead and assigns it to costing items of item category G. You cannot plan the costs for a production order using a cost estimate without quantity structure if the production order is linked to a run schedule header.
Hope this helps you.
