Change Cost components

Hi,
What is the transaction code/path to change Cost components in company code
thanks

Cost Component Structure is the Structure maintained for cost sheet/product costing. It is also used if Activity based costing etc.
The T-code to maintian Cost Component Structure is OKTZ.
The path is
IMG-Controlling-Product Cost Controlling-product cost planning-basic setting- define cost component strucure
Hope this solve your problem
Pls Assign points if satisfied.

Changing assignment of cost elements to cost components

Hello,
I want to assign a cost component to another cost element. Message no. KQ312 Maintenance after deactivating 10 makes cost estimates incomparable appears.
After the change, isn't it possible to compare the cost estimate anymore at all or just the changed cost components?
Regards, Jan

If you change the cost element grouping in your cost component - the standars SAP gives the message that previous cost estimate cost component will not be comparable.. It has got logic because once you do the Actvity price calculation system stores the value as per cost component strcuture in KEPH table . The 40 cost feils in KEPH get dynamically linked as per your cost component.
So if you want to change it , you can change it but makesure you run the KSPI again . If you are moving your existing cost element to another group , the previous saves cost component will not display correctly , although all the future cost estimate will show you as per revised strcuture.
If you not bother about previous cost compoent display then you can change it.

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

Inter company COGS and Cost Components in COPA

Looked at so many threads but couldn't find a proper answer.
Scenario: Company B in Canada books a sales order, delivering from a Plant in Company A in US. US bills Canada at Cost + Mark up.
In US:
On Goods issue COGS is booked based on std in US (say $10)
On Inter company billing - (Cost + 20% mark up) Inter company receivable is $12, this triggers a payable on Canada side.
In Canada:
We can have $12 booked as COGS when Payable entry is created in Canada through IDOC. so Accounting is OK.
How can I have this COGS of $12 posted in COPA ? Somewhere I read to use two condition types for VPRS, but unfortunately we cant do that as we have revenue recognition activated. only VPRS condition values comes through revenue recognition lines.
Since Delivering plant in US has a Standard cost of $10, VPRS is $10 in sales order and COPA gets the cost components from US plant, which is not correct. How can I have the mark up of $2 reflected in Cost components in COPA ?.
Assuming that I create a standard Cost estimate in a virtual Plant in Canada for $12 with two cost components for $10 and $2. Is it possible to manipulate VPRS on sales order to point to standard cost from this virtual plant and create a costing key to bring the cost split from this virtual plant into COPA. Has anybody tried this ?
Thanks in advance.
Krishna

Hi Krishna
1. Does this material always necessitates a supply from US company??
If yes, then your task is easy.. Create a Costing Key and assign to such materials in KE4H... In this Costing Key, do not tick the radio button "Use Line Item Plant as Cost estimate Plant".... Instead, You can specify the default PLANT to be used for reading the Cost Estimates in the field "Specify Cost estimate PLant"
You can use the above solution in case you go with Virtual Plant also
2. Are you saying that the VPRS in Sales order punched in Canadian comp code is 10 USD because the Delivery Plant is in US comp code?
I dont know how does Revenue recog behave in your case and when does VPRS (COGS) flow to COPA.... As you said, VPRS gets the feed from RR, so will manually manipulating the VPRS in sales order help you??
Anyways, the 2nd solution is as below... Few companies have used it
There is an output type in SD called RD04... I may not be fully right here, you can take it as RD0*... Ask your SD guy to identify the right output type
Using this, When you do the PGI in Canadian Comp code,
................. All this happens in background automatically...............
you can create a Virtual STO on USA Comp code....
USA does PGI and the stock virtually comes in Canadian Comp code
Then PGI happens from Canadian Comp code
................. All this happens in background automatically...............
This is a change in your process... The delivery plant for all practical purposes becomes Canadian Plant (only on paper)... Your Physical process can continnue as Delivery from USA...
This solution was adopted when both the companies were in same country.... Check with your business how far is it possibie for you
3. Last option would be to use valuation exit COPA0002.... I dont know how you would use it considering you have RR in place....
Be very careful in doing this

Cost Components for W I P

HI All,
What are the cost components for the WIP process.
I understand this is been defined in the Overhead key for the Materials in the Production order.
I would like to know the Cost components which are added as the factors of production in the WIP Process.
I can see the cost components in the Costing sheet as a calculation procedure.
Is there any separate transaction code/node/report which gives me the components for the overhead calculation.
Ex: for material X
overhead costs may be:
Admin Oh
Sell OH
Labour OH etc.,
This is required for the auditing purpose as certain overheads like Sell and Admin OH are not be added as the Cost of production in WIP as per accounting standards.
So we need to show exactly what components are adding to the production cost.
I understand From OKTZ- Define Cost component structure will help me.
But, I want the Cost Components for W I P (Work-in -progress)
Pls help me in this regard,
Thanks and regards,
S Sq

In SAP R/3, W I P is a calculation function (t.code KKAO).
The WIP calculation function valuates the unfinished products (work in process).
Work in process is the difference between the debit and credit of an order that has not been fully delivered.
In the Product Cost by Order component, the work in process is valuated at actual cost.
By the way, are you talking about creating/ defining cost elements for WIP calculation in SPRO settings. You can use t.codes KA06 for create / KA02 for change / KA03 for display.

Breakdown of COGS into ACTUAL cost components

Hello,
I am looking to design a product cost report which gives breakdown of COGS into actual cost components. We use moving average cost for all materials (purchased as well as manufactured) in a make to order environment.
For example:
Sales order - Shipped material A at COGS $100.
Process order # 1 produced material A using input material B and a series of operations defined in a recipe.
Process order # 1 costs: Input material B - $70
Operations cost - $30
Process order # 2 produced material B using raw material C and a series of operations.
Process order # 2 costs: Input material C - $40
Operations cost - $30
So, the results should look like COGS 100 comprise of $ 40 material cost and $ 60 operations cost.
I understand standard cost estimates can be linked to CO-PA fields to get cost component structure. But, we don't use standard costing. We use CO-PA which gives COGS.
Is there something similar to cost estimate to calculate as above? Or, this is a custom development.
Thanks in advance for any pointers / advice?

Repeat depreciation run can change cost center in GL a/c or not?

Hi Gurus,
I have hit the following issue.
Fixed Asset 1 originally assigned to CC-01 for month of March.
And my user has run depreciation for March already.
Later she changed cost center to CC-02.
Then she repeat depreciation run for the month of March, from the depreciation result shows the new cost center CC-02.
But there is no document generated and thus from corresponding GL account, there is no change, still point to CC-01.Which means CC-02 has not been posted to GL account yet.
May I please know if repeat depreciation run can change cost center in GL a/c or not?
If cannot, what should be the correct way to post the new cost center in GL?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards
Li Juan

Hi, I have tried the method you mentioned.
I managed to generate the new document (Message shows: Document is posted under number 7500000000).
So can I say that repeat depreciation run cannot change cost center for corresponding cost element?
Everytime user has to do manual posting.
Thanks a lot.

How to change the components of the planned order? (FM or BAPI)

I need to change the storage(LGORT) in the components.
I found only MD_PLDORD_CHANGE_COMP_ITEMS, but could not get the correct result.
Has anyone used this FM to change the components of the planned order?
Can you please tell how to use it. Or advise an alternative solution.

Hi Anton,
There's a BAPI to change planned orders - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CHANGE, but it allows to change only header data.
Therefore you'll have to go a bit longer, and use a couple of other BAPIs:
First read the order that you want to change - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_GET_DETAIL
Second, create a new planned order with the changed data, based on the read planned order - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CREATE.
Third, delete the old planned order - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_DELETE.

Change cost center in migo

Hi all!
I would like to know if it is possible to chage the cost center that was set in the purchase order in the migo transaction. Becuase the view I get from the cost center field is the not changeable view.
Thanks

Dear Pablo
you can change the GL code and cost center through GR but see what the effect is
1. if the MIRO done throgh GR no. then it will get the effect in your changed Cost center
2. if MIRO done with PO refecence then the account department didnt get the changed cost center.
it is good practice not to change the cost and gl account to the existing one because it effect in the account department
if user mistaken entered the cost center then ask the same to the user to change.

How to change the components in a visible JPanel?

How to change the components in a visible JPanel?
Is there any way to change the components in a JPanel while it is already visible in a JFrame? I tried the na�ve approach of removing the components and adding new ones, but the effect is not the expected.
For now I'm opening new frames with newly created panels.

After adding/removing components to/from a panel try:
panel.revalidate();
panel.repaint() // sometimes this is also needed, I'm
not sure whyI'm not certain, but I think that panel.revalidate() implicitly calls repaint() only if something actually changed in the layout. If nothing changed, it sees no reason to repaint; hence, if something changed in appearance but not in layout, you have to repaint it yourself.
Or something like that. I'm no expert. ;)

Way to mass change cost centre in positions

Hi Experts
We have a scenario, where the client i srequired to change the cost centre for multiple positions. Is there any report by which this can be done at one go.
Regards
Saurav

First of all, u r talkin abt positions and cost centers....
i would like to know ... how u mapped ur Costcenters to Positions ?
did u maintain relationship thru Org Unit ? realtion ship A011 ?
Then simple change Cost Center of Units accordingly, this would take hardly 10 min.
Otherwise, use BDC to change the relationship for each position....from the date of effective.
Option Move in PPOME is very useful for mass changes... like selecting n number of positions together and moving to required units

All dear Gurus,
During the creation of travel request in NWBC suppose if an employee opted to change cost assignment. And he selected order from Accounting Object and given an order. He is not able to select it because he is getting an error when he click on Accept.
The error is " Order 1000000160 requires assignment to an operation number "
In ECC we have an option called Enhance Cost assignment through which we can choose the operation number. But no such option is available in NWBC.
Kindly help me to solve the issue.

Actual Values for the Cost Components in COPA - TC - KE4R

Hi,
In TC: KE4R, we are maintaining the value field for each Cost Components from the Cost Components Structure.
And the Point of Valuation is 01.
My understanding is that, when we use this value fields in the COPA report, it will show the value of the standard cost estimate from the cost component structure and not the actual cost that has incurred during the transaction.
Am I correct? If not please correct me.
If yes, then How can I get the actual cost for these cost component structure in the value fields.
Please help.
Thanks and regards

Hi Ajay,
we have a requirement that we need details about what makes cost of sales numbers in COPA.
i know the our VPRS value is flowing into COPA as COGS but now we want that we should have ite detailed breakdown as per cost components.
can you please tell me detailed configuration steps to make this happen so that we can create a new COPA ke30 report which gives us the breakdown of the COGS numbers.
one more requirement is that for purchase parts our client is maintaing price PB00 condition and some other conditions like brokerage, freight etc in the info record for those materials and they want that all these conditions value should add up to show the COGS value for these purchase parts in the COPA report.. how do we do that?
please reply soon...
Thanks in advance,
