Cannot close Production Order due to cost

Hi experts,
I have a problem with a production order that I cannot close. I have confirmed the order, however instead of cancelling the confirmation, I used MIGO inorder to reverse the goods movement. In closing the order, I encountered an error due to the balance cost for production (labor, power, water, overhead). I cannot cancel the confirmation since it is returning an error which is a deficit in the quantity. This is maybe due to the reversals I have already made for the finished good and components using MIGO. I cannot already repost or cancel the goods movement since the period is already closed.
I really am hoping for your help regarding this so I may already close the order.
Many many thanks.
Sincerely,
Ria

Since periods are already closed in MM, it is not
possible to post into these periods any more. There're two workarounds.
1. If you can close the orders with the balance, change the indicator
   in the settlement profile from 'To be settled in full' to 'Can be
   settled' or 'Not for settlement' temporarily. After you close the
   orders, change it back immediately.
2. Settle the order in KO88 twice with the following parameters:
   1) Settlement period    04
      Fiscal year          2009
      Posting period       06
   2) Settlement period    05
      Fiscal year          2005
      Posting period       06
You can check whether there's cost for the order in table COEP.
For more information, please review attached note 140672.
I hope this will be useful,
best regards

Cannot close production orders

Hi guys,
When the user tries to close a production order in CO02 , they get an error which says the the purchase order still exists. but as i see in the purchae order , the delivery completed indicator is set.( one thing I can see is : in the invoice tab of item details final invoice indicator is not set) .Does the final invoice indicator has any effect on closing the production order?Please help me .I'd appreciate your help.
Thanks

Hi
Prerequisites for setting the CLSD status for production orders are:
1.The order must have the status Released (REL) or Technically completed (TECO)
2.The order balance must be 0
3.There can be no open purchase requisitions, purchase orders or commitments
4.There can be no future change records from confirmation processes
There should not be any commitments towards the Purchase orders.No more costs can be posted to the order, that is, confirmations and goods movements are no longer permitted for the order.So please complete GR/IR activities for the Purchase orders.

Re:No release of production order without standard cost estimate

Hello Experts
I do not want to release any production order without standard cost estimate
I have come acroos the same problem raised by some other users and can you please suggest how to achieve this?
Is there any way to achieve this without user exit?
Thanks and Regards
Subbu

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.
Thank you,

Report to view Production order wise atcual cost when PO is assigned to PCC

Hi All,
Can anyone help me to get the report for production order wise actual cost incurred when that Production order is assigned to PCC (Product cost collector).
Is it possible through Summarization hierarchy or Product drilldown?
If yes, can u explain the steps.
Regards,
Durga.

Hi Bhaskar
You are in Alaska and you wanna eat vegetarian food
You cant get values at Prod order level if you have chosen PCC as cost object.... You will only get Qty at Prod order level
To get a bird's eye view of costs incurred in PCC, execute report MCRY with PCC as the input... MCRX shows only Qty info for components

Cannot release production order for a plant

Hi:
When I try to release a process order , I get this error message:
"CAnnot release production order for plant".
I get this message for a particular material in the plant. For other materials, it's working fine.
Please give your suggestions!
Gautham

Hi,
Check the Tasklist usage for your routing for that material.
For this usage ,check in op45 against the task list type whether until release indicator has been enabled.If so remove
and do the release.
or
check whether workcenter which is used for producing the material has been locked in work center itself.
Indicator: Usage only until release in orderIndicator used to specify for a task list usage and a task list type that an operation in the order cannot be released. This occurs when a work center group that is not intended for production is allocated to this operation.
When this type of operation in the order is released you must enter the work center where production should take place.

Production Order Type In Costing.

Hi Gurus,
i have some Doubts in Costing, i have Run The Ck11n and Released it it is updated in MM Costing View.
1. i have completed All the Production process andAfter the Goods Recipt I tried to settle the Order in ko88.i got error that variance shuold be calluclated before settling the order. then i tried to calluclate the variance for the order there i got error stating no cost collector could be determined, creat cost collector.
then i tried to creat cost collector i got error that the order type is ctegory 10 it is not suuported to cost cgange catogiry 05.
1. sap standard order type pp01 holds category 10. then why systm is not allowing to create cost collector for pp01?
2. is it mandatory to use order category 05 if we want to use costing for the production order type.?
Regards,
Venkat.

Venkat,
You do not enter a production version in the order. The system cannot assign the order to any product cost collector. To solve this problem you create the order for the production version.
you have defined that the product cost collector is created for the production version. The corresponding product cost collector exists in the system. However, you create the order for BOM and routing.
Follow this link and do the set up first.

How to close production Order

Hi All,
The production order planned and Released date is 17/12/2008, and the Issue for production order document date is 17/12/2009 (it was entered by mistake in the system with 12 months difference). When you try to close the Production Order the system shows an error. How we can deal with this sistuation?
Thanks
SV Reddy

Dear,
Kindly check the note 1330151 below:
Symptom
When closing production order, the error message "Invalid Account" is
shown, although the account settings are correct.
Other terms
WIP Inventory Account, WIP Inventory Variance Account
Reason and Prerequisites
Consulting
Solution
Please go to "Document Settings", tab "Per Document", Document "Journal
Entry" and check "Allow Zero Amount Line".
Explanation:
When closing production order, a JE between "WIP Stock Account" and "WIP
Stock Variance Account" will be posted. When there is no difference
between actual component cost and product cost, the amount in JE will be
zero. That's why if zero amount line is blocked in journal entry, the
production order can't be closed.
WIsh it is helpful for you.

Open production orders and its costs migration

Hi All,
We are migrating open production orders from legacy to SAP.
We have some standard cost production orders are open in legacy and like to migrate a open production orders to SAP?
May I know how can I do from controlling point of view?
I have one typical scenario.
I have one production order in legacy with 10 standard cost materials produce and out of 10, 5 materials are completed in legacy and we wants to migrate remaining 5 materials to SAP.
What are the steps I needs to follow to migrate open production orders.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Anusha

Hi Anusha,
Below is the process: (presuming that you're uploading balances as of 01.04.2009)
Upload all material masters,
Upload material initial balances,
Create new Production Orders as of cut off date, say 01.04.2009
Issues goods to Production Orders created above.
All the goods/material issued to Production are debited to raw material consumption account.
The value of WIP can only be ascertained during month-end closing process.
If it is pressing requirement then upload the balances as of 31.03.2009 and then do a month-end/year-end closing.
Thanks,
Srikanth

Duplicate production order due to sales order on credit block

Dear Experts !
Need feedback on the following scenario:
- Sales order is entered for material which is produced in-house specific to the sales order (ie customer's logo is on product).
- Schedule line in sales order creates a production order specific to the sales order.
- Customer runs into credit check a few days later and consequently the schedule line in the sales order is removed due to credit block, however the linked production order still remains and is produced by factory.
- Sales order is released from credit check and a new schedule line is created resulting in another production order being released.
Any ideas on how to prevent duplication of production order?
Thanks in advance!
-Alvin

Hello,
Apologies for the confusion, let me explain it a bit more.
- Sales order is entered for material with planning strategy group of make-to-order, the schedule line initiates new production order for make-to-order material.
- A few days later - the customer goes over credit limit or has overdue invoices, etc..
- During background rescheduling (or any sales order change) the sales order gets a credit block due to static check.
- Sales order block deleted schedule line in sales order, however the production order remains active.
- Once the sales order is released from credit block, a new schedule line is created which initiates a new production order.
- Duplicate production order is now being made in shop floor.
I hope the above explains my scnario a little clearer.
Thanks and regards,
Alvin

Blocking creation of production order if standard cost estimate is not done

Hi PP gurus,
Can anyone help me in blocking the creation of production order if the standard cost estimate is not done for the particular posting period.

Hi,
I do not think there exist a standart check. You can use exit EXIT_SAPLCOZF_003 to block creation of production order by sending error messages based on any condition.

No release of production order without standard cost estimate

Hi All,
I have an requirement, that is production order for a material should not be released or saved if standard cost estimate for that period is not released. Basically it should not allow to release or save the production for that material, is SCE is not run for that period. I tried various options, i also overheard its possible through user exit and many people have succeed in that.
Has anybody overcome this problem, please do let me know. And which user exit??
Thanks in advance
With Best Regards
GJ.

Hi...
I have faced the same problem in my previous project. What i have instructed to my client is to take control of Master data and put the status as "03" Blocked for movement till the statndard cost is released for this material.
You can relase the status to "E2" in Cross Plant Status Field in Costing one view once the cost estimate is released for the material.
I hope this works for you.
Please let me know if you require any fruther information.
Thank you,

Santosh

Production Order with Standard Costing

Hai
How to activate check point
If standard cost (Price control -"S") is less then 0 in material master then production Order can not creae.
Dharmesh Soni

Hi Soni
As AMIT said this can only be solved only by User exit.
This user exit will pop up error message during plan order to prod order conversion while saving or during saving prod order when it is manually created.
This user exit will look whether the standard cost estimate has been run for the header material of prod order and will not allow you to save the prod order.

GR quantity more than production order quantity triggering cost difference

Hi Gurus,
We have observed a scenario where the cost(price) dfference account getting hit whenever the GR quantity is greater than the production order total quantity. The dollars posted to this acount are directly propotional to the difference between the GR quantity and the production order quantity.
The total quantity specified in production order is 1 M2U and GR quantity is 1,000 M2U.Material price is $195.65.
Accounting Document;
Inventory account           - 195.65
Offset account                - 200.00
Cost difference account -    4.35
If we do GR for less than or same quantity as in the production order, this account is not getting triggered.
Any idea what is causing this scenario? I really appreciate if you can share with any SAP note related to this.
Thanks,
Mano.

Hello Gurus,
One more observation is,
The palnned costs and actual costs are always different when dealing huge quantities. But the cost difference account is only getting triggered if the actual quantity is more than the palnned quantity.
And,
when the difference between atual quantity and palnned quantity is huge then
Planned costs are booked to the inventory account
Actual costs are booked to the prodcution cost account.
Significant cost variance is booked to the cost variance account.
When the difference between actual quantity is less than/equal to planned quantity is not so huge then
Actual costs are booked to the inventory account
Actual costs are booked to the prodcution cost account.
Is this a standard behaviour?
Thanks,
Mano.
