C088 activity price wrong input

Hello all.
cost centre to activity rate was wrongly inputed 100 instead of 10 , the product cost collector debit all the cost with the planned activity rate as 100 and regular cost of consumption.
while settling the PCC to material and variance to profitablity segment,
accounting entry is posted as
CR change in FG 1000-
DR price diff 1000
Is there a option to settle the difference without huge price difference.

Activity prices in KP26 used for actual and plan in version 0

We plan activity prices via KP26 in version 0. We then plan activity consumption via KP06, and run the plan reconciliation via KPSI.
During the year, we need to update the activity prices used in actual activity allocation. This price also comes from version 0.
When we change the activity price, the planned amounts change also. We are looking for a way to maintain a separate price for actual activity allocation.

Ajay,
Your answer definitely sent me down the right path...thank you!
For other's benefit, these are the steps I took to make this work:
1) set the "Purely Iter. Price" indicator in plan version 0
2) import planning layout 1-N01 from client 000 (OBKF)
3) add planning area "Cctr: Manual actual prices" to planning layout SAPALL (KP34)
4) add planning layout 1-N01 to planner profile SAPALL (KP34)
5) create and run custom program from note 551309 to add cost element field to the input screen in KBK6 (SE38)
6) transport planning layout for planning area "Cctr: Manual actual prices" (OKEX)
Now we can plan a price in KP26, and maintain a different price in KBK6 which is used in the actual activity allocation.
Thanks again,
Linda

KSII actual activity price issue

Hi All
I want system to calculate the activity price automatically after running KSII and should update it in KBK6 so that i can revaluate production order with actuals by running MFN1. Now i have done all the configuration required and my plan cost are getting updated after i run KSPI and same is getting update in KP26 and are also showing in KBK6 under plan cost nd can be seen in Cost center reports under plan cost. Problem is with actuals
I have been reading the forum regarding this issue and all the inputs given by experts is been checked but i think iam missing something either a step in calculating the actuals or may be some tick in configurations
Kindly let me know the solution for an issue iam facing .
Thanks in advance

Hi Surya
I had already done the setting in OKEW and all splitting structure configuration. Base on that my plan cost is been distrbuted in two different activities. Planning has been done in KP06 and after doing that only i ran the transaction KSPI.
But ya you got a point thats what iam feeling that there is some thing missing in my config settings which i already mentioned in my earlier posts.
What is the prb iam not able to recoganize kindly if you can give me some detailed information what could be the reason?
For your information i would like to tell briefly what i did so far:
1. IN configuration i defined splitting structure Say T1
2. then by selecting T1 i cllicked in assignment and assigned splitting rule say T10
3. then by selecting T10 i clicked on "Selection for assingment" in this screen i mentioned only one cost element say 55000000 in "from value" "to value" and in activity type i mentioned "from" 106010 "to" 106030
4. then i clicked back icon and selected "Splitting rules" which is T10 in my case and method i mentioned is "12- Activiy quanitity" and checkd the box called "Wt- Weighting Indicator"
5. then i selected my rule T10 and clicked on "Selection for rules" and here i mentioned my version that is 0
6. then i did config setting "Assign Splitting Structure to Cost Centers" over here i assined this rule to only one cost center say 31010401 in parameters i selected version radio box and entered 0 there
These all what i did in configuration settings
Now after this i did planning KP06 entered my cost center that is 31010401 and only mentioned my cost element which is 55000000 with my activity type 106010 and 106030 here i didn't took 106020 in consideration. Now these values are coming in my cost center plan report on debit side and then i ran KSPI cost got splitted in both the activiy types in credit side in planning section of cost center but the prb is the same which you know Actuals are not coming
Kindly put a light what could be the reason?
Thanks

Activity Price calculation

Hi all
Can anybody tell me how to do the Activity price calculation.
we are doing the activity type planning by using T code KP26
but that has to be done manually,my client want system should calculate the price automatically
First of all can it possible,if yes please let me know the configuration
Thanks

hi
Calculating Actual Activity at Actual Prices
Because you carry out actual price calculation at period-end closing, no actual prices exist at the time of the actual activity posting. For this reason, the initial valuation of actual activity uses plan prices. If no plan price exists (as is the case with pure actual cost calculation), you can post the activity without a valuation. During period-end closing, the system calculates the actual prices iteratively and, provided you have made the required settings recalculates the difference between the plan and actual prices (see the example in Actual Price Calculations).
The procedure for the actual price calculation does not differ from plan price calculation (see: Plan Price Calculation). You can calculate a purely iterative price in the actual, just as for plan price calculation. To do so, select Purely iterative price in the fiscal year parameters of the version.
To calculate the purely iterative actual price, the system uses the actual costs and actual activity for all cost centers/activity types or business processes. The plan prices (whether calculated iteratively or entered manually) are treated by the system like manual settings and are ignored during the calculation of the purely iterative price in the actual. Actual activity inputs are initially valuated with the relevant plan price. This may result in large variances between the purely iterative actual price and the calculated actual price; activity inputs are valuated with plan prices, whereas the credits on cost centers and business processes are based on activity valuated with iterative actual prices.
In the price report (see: Price Report) you can compare the purely iterative prices with the prices calculated through the manual settings. In this way, you can analyze the effects of price changes (in actual, the manually-set prices and the iteratively calculated plan prices) on the complete pricing framework.

Actual activity price not updating in production order

Hi All,
I am facing one problem, that actual price for activities are not updating in production order while plan price are updated. Earlier both plan and activity prices were getting upadated but now actual price is not updating for any material. I have tried at the same material also but it is not getting updated. Actual hours are updated in confirmation of production order but not price. If somebody could suggest the reason it will be great.

Dear Nitin,
Thanx to all for valuable input. Problem is solved.
Nice to see That your problem is solved
But Can you let the Forum Members know
where was the exact problem & how it is solved

CK11N :: Activity Price calculations

Hi Friends,
During the costing run in CK11N transaction, we are facing a little bit issue with activity value calculation. System is providing accurate times as per routings and also displaying correct rate as mentioned in activity, but during calculation, it is making something else value.
e.g. for an activity according to routing system is calculating 0.04 Mins, which is accurate, and displaying activity rates as 148.89 Inr/Hr. According to calculations, system should calculate as
148.89 / 60 * 0.04 = 0.10, whereas system is generating the value of 0.15.
Can you please suggest how system is calculating the values and are we doing some wrong calculation or we have to make some another way for calculating the activity values.
Your kind response is appreciable.
Rgds, Krishan Raheja.

Activity Price is calculated on Interative basis. See whether you have run the Actual Activity price calculation through TC: KSII.

Error while updating the Actual Activity Prices

Dear All,
While calculating the Actual activity prices under test run (KSII) ,the system is calculating the prices correctly, but when I run the KSII after deselecting the test run ,the system is giving the following error message:
Cost center EE04301000 activity type RWKHRS: costs exist although activity 0
Message no. KP250
Diagnosis
The plan or actual activity for cost center EE04301000, activity type RWKHRS is 0. However, costs were planned or posted in period(s) 1.
System Response
The SAP System cannot calculate activity prices for this activity type as this would involve division by zero. The plan or actual costs are ignored in activity price calculation.
Procedure
Check activity price calculation in planning for activity type RWKHRS in cost center EE04301000 and the costs planned for period(s) 1.
Activity Type Planning
Primary Cost Planning
For activity price calculation in actual, actual costs are allocated onto the activity type through splitting, although no activity posting was made on this activity type.
The scenario is that we have 4 activity types and planned costs/activity qty for all the 4 activities and calculated plan prices and posted actual costs for all the four types. Production Order created and confirmed only 3 activities out of 4 activities. And when we calculate the Actual prices for all 4 activities the system is giving the above said message.
Please suggest as how to solve this issue.
Regards
Subbu

Hi Subbu
The error is very much justified.. If your actual qty for any act type is zero, then division by zero would yield an error during activity price calculatoin
You need to ignore this error, if the zero qty for 4th act type is justified.. System would post act price for remaining 3 act types...

Im looking at the iPhone UK price when compared to the US price. That is the equlivant of £123.49 by todays conversion. Thats 428% more expensive in the UK!!!! Either Apple have the price wrong in the US or are you ripping us of in the UK!!

That is the equlivant of £123.49 by todays conversion. Thats 428% more expensive in the UK!!!! Either Apple have the price wrong on US or they really are ripping us of in the UK!!
Im hoping that the UK price is incorrect!

You are comparing Apples and oranges. The US states the price for an iPhone that is subsidized by the cellular provider. The UK price is for an outright purchase.

Activity price not getting updated at Production order

Hi All,
I have made activity dependent planning at cost centre and calculated the activity rate. The activity rate is showing correctly for the cost centre in KP26, but while confirming the production order (CO11N) the the activity price is not getting updated in production order. But material price is getting properly updated at production order.
Plz help me in identifying the possible areas of mistakes.
Regards,
BKD

Hi,
Please check the Period for which you have created the ht activity price is same as the period in the conformation. In the workcenter in which you are confirming please check whether the activities are assigned to the work center.

At the time of actual activity price calculatoin with diffenrent currency

Dear Friends,
I am facing some problems. Followings are the information/Problems:
Controlling Area Currency - USD
Company Code currency - INR
Exchange rate - M type - 46.90
Exchange rate - P type 46.90
This problem is due to problem-1. At the time of actual activity price calculatoin, I am geeting huge price because system has multiplied (problem-1) and now system is taking posted amount in usd to calcualte actual activity price and according to my observation after calcualtion in usd system is converting price into INR
Questions - 1. What is the logic of calculation of actual activity price.
2. As I feel after analyses that sytems is taking posted cost in controlling area currecy and then calculating price and then converting into INR,
Is my theory correct in term of SAP standard functionality. is there any method by when system take only posted figure in inr for activity price calcualtion.
Please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks

1. If you are using common controlling area with two different participating company code currency, then you have to use group controlling currency and integrate the other company code currency with parallel currency defined in the FI ledger. Hope this is design principle based on which you have selected group currency.
2. In case group currency controlling then non-participating currency should calculate the activity rates in group currency. Meaning you have define the activity rates at EUR currency and remember this has to accepted globally.
This is key drawback where you cannot define activity rates in INR, whereas there is no option activity type creation to give object currency as INR.
Hope this clarifies.

Activity prices are not matching compare to previous year

Dear Sap Guru's,
Activity prices are not matching for the year 09 compare to 08.But standard cost estimation is correct.how it is possible.can you guide me how system calculates activity prices.
Ex: My client having business in egypt.Last year they started thier business at this time activity prices are maintained for INDO OH :13.81, Labur 0.44 per Min plan price 1.It is common for whole year -08.
Now I copied the same activity prices for this year through kp97 by selecting object currency for both plan and cost.under planning currency tab.
Activity prices are showing for IND oh is 17.14 ; instead of 13.81 and labour it is showing 0.55 instead of 0.44.
Pls guide me.
Regards
KUMAR.

Hi,
guess you are using a controlling area currency (A) thats different from company code currency (B).
First check if the prerequisites within KP97 / button "planning currencies" are met when ticking "object currency" and using the F1-help especially the point
"It only makes sense to activate this indicator if you have activated all
currencies
1. when copying: in the source and target versions".
Whatever the reason is, your KP97 copy did the following thing:
For each CO area and plan version there are settings for each fiscal year to be made (IMG: Controlling / General Controlling / Organization / maintain versions, mark the relevant version choose "Controlling area settings", mark it again and choose "settings for ecah fiscal year".
Compare your 2 fiscal years, which exchange rate type (can be different, normally its "P") and value date (its often the first day of the new FY) is used?
If you have a difference in minimum one of the mentioned settings in CO version you might have different act. prices in comp. code currency.
Your KP97 process copied the values in controlling area currency (A) and converted this numbers to comp. code currency (B) based on your CO-version settings.
Best regards, Christian

Actual activity price does not exist for cost center / activity type

Hi,
We are trying to upload the time sheet related data(number of hours an employee workred on a project) ect from Non SAP to SAP.
We have used a customized program and have loaded the data from se38.
All this HR data will be saved in CAT2
Later we transfer the time related data into SAP FI/CO using CAT7.
+When tested with a couple of employees time sheets, they got uploaded in SE38 proerly and when transfered it through CAT7 it was properly taking the hour*rate is cost and was reflecting in the respective cost element.
For a few time sheets in SE38 we were getting an error saying that the cost center(100501)/ activity type(EAT001) does not exist for 2010.
Hence we have taken, FY 2010, the cost centes and activity types in KP26 and have given the planned Activity as 1. No planned cost in KP06.
We have run the price calculation forr the FY 2010.
Then we were able to uplaod the time sheets, but when we tried to transfer the data through CAT7, it throws an error saying no activity price exist for cost center 100501/ activity type EAT001. If I ignore the warning an proceed, no amount is being calculated.
When uploaded employee time sheets before, all the cost were getting claculated and were entering into the respective cost elements, but now no amounts are being calculated and it is taking Zero.
When checked the previous years data i.e, 2009 all amounts are fine, in KSII I can see the activity quantity filled with some numbers in 2009, where from are they comming? I have checked KBk6 nothing was mentioned.
PLease assit
Regards,
shilpa

Hi
I never used CAT* though, but the error means that you need to maintain a activity price in KBK6 (Actual price)

All activity prices in controlling area HGC, fiscal year 2011, and version 0 were determined and set as manually entered prices.
In actual price calculation, all plan activity prices, meaning those calculated automatically (activity price indicator 1 and 2) and those set manually (activity price indicator 3), are treated as if they have been set manually.
System Response
The SAP System cannot calculate activity prices automatically.
Processing is cancelled.
Procedure
Check your activity type planning. To calculate the activity price automatically, you must set the activity price indicator accordingly.

Hi Imdad
Go to KL02 and set your Actual Price Indicator so that it allows to calculate Actual Price through system
There are 2 such fields - Plan Price Indicator and Actual Price Indicator... I think you have presently chosen MANUAL price indicator

Activity prices maintained manually..Is KSII/MFN1 possible?

Hi Experts,
We have this scenario:
1. Activity prices are entered manually in KP26.
2. All Costs are maintained as Activity independent costs.
3. For Production Cost centers, some costs (primary costs) are Activity relevant and others not relevant at all for Activity.
4. No Splitting structure maintained so far.
Now, we are considering calculating Actual Activity prices through KSII and then MFN1 for revaluating Process orders.
I tried KSII in our test system, where I got the following error message # KP211. I even tried by maintaining the Actual Activity type category '01' and Actual price indicator '05' in AT master, but no luck.
Short Text
All activity prices are manually entered
Diagnosis
All activity prices in controlling area , fiscal year , and version were determined and set as manually entered prices.
In actual price calculation, all plan activity prices, meaning those calculated automatically (activity price indicator 1 and 2) and those set manually (activity price indicator 3), are treated as if they have been set manually.
System Response
The SAP System cannot calculate activity prices automatically.
Processing is cancelled.
Procedure
Check your activity type planning. To calculate the activity price automatically, you must set the activity price indicator accordingly.
Proceed
Questions:
1.Given our case, is it possible to do KSII/MFN1? If yes, what configuration and master setup is required?
2. What accounting/CO entry posted MFN1. Especially, want to know if value also posted to CO-PA?
Thanks much for your time.
SC

Hi SC, 
 
sorry for my delay. 
 
Yes, you can process KSII even if you maintained planned activity prices manually. For this, the Activity type master should be activity price indicator "5" for Actual, hoever it's defalt value for planning (KP26). 
Could you check activity planning value in your period as follows; 
 
1. Go to transaction KP26 
2. Selection screen; 
 Set your version and year/period and also cost center/activity types in problem. 
 Push Next Layout button (Ctrl + F8) and set layout 1-204 (named "Control indicators"). 
3. Push "Overview screen" (F5) 
 
You can see plan price indicator and also ACTUAL price indicator, so you have to check if actual price indicator is not "7" or "Blank". If not, please set it with value "5" or "6". 
Hope you can understand what I wrote above, but if you have any queries, please feel free to ask me. 
 
Additonaly about your question regarding "activity independent" cost planning 
In F1 help document for field "Equivalence Numbers", there're useful description how activity-independent costs allocates activity type and activity prices calculates. If you do not use cost split or activity-depend planning, you can process activity price calculation by "Equivalence Numbers". it's easy-way to allocate cost to each activity type. you can see this field also in KP26 with layout 1-201 (sample) 
the following passage from field "Equivalence Numbers" F1 document. 
 
- Equivalence Numbers 
Weighting factor for distribution of activity-independent plan costs of a cost center onto the available activity types. 
- Use 
This field group serves to weight the activity types created in a cost center. After weighting, the activity-independent plan costs of a cost center are distributed onto the available activity types. 
-Procedure 
If you want to change or create equivalence numbers in planning, this field must be defined in the planning layout. If this field is not defined, any existing equivalence numbers will be displayed, but they cannot be changed. 
Examples 
You have planned the following activity types for cost center 4420: 
Activ. type Plan quantity Equiv. nr. 
 
FST 400 hrs 3 
REP 50 hrs 1 
RST 20 hrs 1 
 
 Total: 5 
This cost center has planned activity-independent costs worth $20,000 . These costs are distributed according to activity price calculation onto the iteratively calculated activity prices (cost rates) of the activity types: 
ATyp Fixed costs Fixed portion of activ. price 
 
FST 20,000 X 3/5 = 12,000 $12,000 / 400 hrs = 30 $/hr 
REP 20,000 X 1/5 = 4,000 $4,000 / 50 hrs = 80 $/hr 
RST 20,000 X 1/5 = 4,000 $4,000 / 20 hrs = 200 $/hr
