Clarification on Cost planning version

Hi Gurus,
I need a clarification... as per the client's business requirements, cost planning is to be executed in various versions before it is finally approved. As of now it is decided to copy this into zero version (approved version). What will happen if components & services are assigned to network when real execution starts ?
Let me give an example, Unit cost planning is executed for $1000. This cost plan is copied into zero version. when the user start executing the project, they assigned components & service in the network amounting to $800. As system takes this planning directly to zero version, will the total planned cost will become $1800 ? If so, should i not take the approved cost plan into zero version instead to copy into some other version and only use Plan 1/Plan 2/ Actual Report to see the comparison ?
Whether my understanding is correct ?
Regards,
Vinodh

Hi Vinod,
Goto OPSV ( Define Order Value Updating for Orders for Projects ), remove the Check box "addit" for Order category - 20.
You can copy the Planned cost from other versions to active version - "0" but you can keep order settings to avoid appending planned cost to WBS Element Level. So, even though user do network costing, network planned cost not appended to WBS Element. Hence your initial approved planned cost remains same and you can see in all reports.
Hope this clears you !!

How to add "Cost Plan Version" and "Planned Cost" into CNE5 report?

Hi,
I would like to display Cost Plan Version(VERSN) and Planned Cost in the CNE5 report.
How to retrieve Planned Cost that based on the Cost Plan Version ?
Appreciate helps. Thanks.
Regards,
See Mun

Plan versions: A plan version is created in accounting and stores different cost plans for a project, such as an "optimistic" and a "pessimistic" plan.
Now coming to plan version 0 is verson where actaul cost is updated in your organisation.
Plan version 1 is used for the planning...
How to see the same in CJE5 is suggested by Virendra..
However there is no filed name planned cost in report but the name of the filed is Proj.cost sched.000
with which you can achieve your result.
path is run txn CJE5>give your Project no.> F8> in new screen> F5-->in new Window scroll down in the right side for the Proj.cost sched.000 filed > with select take the same to left side>Enter--> values will displyed for this field in your report.
similarly you can use the other fields as well... take help of F4, to know the meaning of fileds.

Easy Cost Planning version 0 cannot be used in DP81

Dear SAP Expert,
Please advice.
We have requirement to do sales pricing in DP81 with project and inquiry.
Some steps that we are doing :
1. Create Inquiry : VA11
2. Create Project : CJ20n
3. Create cost planning with network activity in CJ20n and use Planning cost version 1. ( We are trying to use more than 1 version, not only version 0)
4. Run DP81. It shows error message no expenditure.
In the config ODP1 ( DIP Profile) , version has been activated.
Is there any solution to use ECP with version more than version 0?
Appreciate for the advice.
Thank you.
Nies

Hi Sanjeev,
Sales Pricing (DP81) can read ECP with standard version 0. The issue is that DP81 cannot read version other then 0.
I need to do planning cost using version other than version 0 ( Actual/Planning version)
Thank you for your advice.

Lock one specific plan version

Hi Gurus,
The requirement is to lock a particular version (Cost plan version in PS) when one version is copied into another (For eg. Version A is copied into Version B, system should not allow to edit Version A). I tried to achieve this through User status but it locks all the versions. Is there any way I can do this ?
Awaiting your valuable suggestions.
thanks in advance
Vinodh.

Hi,
in CO version definition you can lock specific plan versions against changes.
Best regards, Christian

Cost Planning for networks in a CO plan version other than 0

Hi,
We have a specific requirement of getting the planned cost in terms of $ and hours on a network activity getting posted to some other CO version other than 0 in certain cases.
It would be great if anyone could suggest a FM or a BAPI to achieve this end?
Please reply if you need any clarification on the requirement
Regards,
Jibat

In Cj30 you will get the CO version '000 , If you want to your can copy cost planning values of your version V01 & V02 to
Version 0 and do the budgeting Because you actual will happen to 0 only so, to compare your plan should be there idealy.
Apart from that network cost planning can only be done in 0 version. And system give you option of copying the your preliminary plannning to version 0.
Virendra - Thanks for the explanation. It made my understanding better as well.
With Regards

SAP - Cost Center Planning - Version 1

Dear All
Recently we have started to use the cost center planning through KP16 under plan version -1
However we are unable to down the plan data in excel with a cost center break up through KSBP report.
We are not using any special ledger
System is showing the following error
No plan cost line items recorded.
Message no. KB419
Diagnosis
No planned costs line items are written to controlling area DXES in version 1 of fiscal year 2009.
System Response
The report cannot be executed.
Procedure
Check your selection criteria or activate the line item update function.
Note
The line item update function is controlled depending on the application:
Cost center planning
Here you can define the update for each version and fiscal year. You can maintain the corresponding indicator (integrated planning) in the version maintenance (settings for the fiscal year).
This indicator you can either
set manually when creating a version or
set later via the menu sequence "Planning -> Planning aids -> Integration active".
Regards
Anilkumar

Hi,
The impact is that the planning is stored also as line items and the planning is integrated between the CO-PCA components. In SAP words:
- All available plan records for controlling area/version/fiscal year are posted as line items. The R/3 System posts these line items to the AC interface.
- Any existing line items in the plan allocation transactions (plan assesment, distribution, or accrual calculation) are posted to the AC interface as well and made available to other components.

Eli

i.e

Here we maintain material cost, service cost, BPO etc
2.When we copy the version from '0' to new version which i have created copying the 1 version.Or say '0' version to '1' version then material cost is not reflecting in new version cost planning after CJ9BS.

Costing on Internal Orders with different plan versions

Hi,
Is it possible to carry out Costing on Internal Orders using different plan versions?
I would like to carry out more than one costing on Internal Order so that I could compare different versions. Maybe there are other parameters (other than plan versions) which can be used for executing different parallel costing.
Best wishes,
Karol

Hi Karol,
In Release 3.0, the following new planning functions are available in order planning:
<b>Copy plan versions</b>
In Release 3.0, you can plan order costs for internal orders in different versions. In contrast to earlier releases, you can now
1. change versions
2. copy versions
3. Here you can select :
the planned values to be copied: annual or total values
whether the planned values in the target version are to be retained or overwritten compare versions using the information system
Planned values are not revaluated in the target version (for example, when you change the value date).
Overhead and settlements are not copied and, if required, must be repeated in the target version

Change cost planning after copying to different CO version

Hi,
I have done network cost planning through project builder, after completing this I copied my cost planning to different CO version. Now I'm not able to change values of second CO version. I can see the figures in reports, but not able to change using CJR2 or CJ40 transactions.
Thanks

Hi,
Full authorization is provided to the user, and the required fiscal year too is configured in second CO version. This is not solved the problem!
If my understanding is correct, only version 0 can have network costing, all others will have either cost element based or WBS element based cost planning.
Now, when a network costing is copied to another CO version, the destination version can't hold cost planning in the form of network costing then what type costing second version would be having and how one can modify the value and quantity in that version?
Thanks

Cost plan for sim version

Hi experts
The business requirement is as follows:
1) Project schedule option-1 with work packages and costing plan ( L1 schedule)
2) Project schedule option-2 with different work packages and relevant costing plan (L2 schedule)
Clien requires both of these as drafts
The requirement can be met by creating sim_ver1 and sim_ver2 in transaction CJV1 (with out having operative version).
Subsequently the approved sim version will be used for creating operative version.
But is it possible to maintain cost plan for sim versions?
If no, please suggest best practice.
warm regards
ramSiva

You can only use network costing for simulation version. Other cost planning methods are not possible for simualtion version. Refer SAP Help

Defaulting CO plan versions specific to cost plan method.

Hi Experts
I wish to have dedicated CO plan versions as shown below:
Z01: Overal planning
Z02: Detailed planning
Z03: Unit cost planning
Z04: ECP
For ECP, the CO plan version can be defauled. Similarly is there any provision to default the specific CO plan versions for the remaining cost plan methods?
This helps in preventing the selection of inappropriate version. And also provides clarity that the version it self indicates the cost plan method.
Request experts to comment.
warm regards

Want to copy actual data to plan version for profit & cost center

Hi,
I want to copy data from actual to plan data for first half of the financial year.
I was trying with T-Code CP98 . Are any Configration settings required to be done?
But facing error "you have not selected a traget project"
Is there any other way out for doing these activity?
Thanks & Regards,
Mayur
Edited by: Mayur on Feb 23, 2010 11:56 AM

Hello Mayur,
Please try with KP97/KP98 transactions.
I suspect, that you are giving wrong target plan version.
Please check your entries once again.

Cost planning in cj40

Dear Experts,
I did cost planning in Cj40 for version 1 i.e planning version.
when i display it in cj41 its ok.
but when i run a report s_alr_87013534 which is plan1 X plan2 X actual X commitment
system asks for
plan 1 = 0 version
Plan2 = 1 version
then in report no planned cost is there for in version 1.
Please tell me that whether i am missing some steps or what?
Reply.

Hi,
As you wrote that you did planning in version 1 and you can see it in CJ41 by seleting plan version 1.
in report s_alr_87013534 you are giving following selection criteris
Plan1 = 0
Plan2 = 1
So here system is giving details in Plan1 for the planning version 0
and in plan2 for the planning vesion 1
As you had not done any planning in vesion 0 so you are not getting data in plan1 and getting data in plan 2 as you had done planning in version 1.
Even in CJ41 if you select data for version 0 system will not give any data.
Hope this clarification is sufficient to answer your query.
regards,
