Client Cost Allocation to COPA Failed

Hey guys... when we try to Client Cost Allocate to COPA using TR : keub..
the test run is ok... but the actual run fails with the following error.. pls help
Runtime Errors         PERFORM_TOO_MANY_PARAMETERS
Except.                CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND
What happened?
    In a subroutine call, there were more parameters than in the
    routine definition.
    Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "SAPLKEIB" had to be terminated because it has
    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND', was
     not caught in
    procedure "RKE_POST_CO_ITEM_PLANNING" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a
     RAISING clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    A PERFORM was used to call the routine "PREPARE_CO_PLANNING" of the program
     "RK2OBPUS".
    This routine contains 1 formal parameters, but the current call
    contains 2 actual parameters.

Allocation of Costs from Cost center to COPA

Hi
We are booking costs to a Cost Center with reference to a Primary Cost Element. However, in month end, the same cost has to be transferred to COPA. One of the Characteristics in COPA is also Profit Center.
The issue is that we can allocate costs from Cost centers to COPA through Assesement Rule, system requirement is for Assesement Cost Element, which is a secondary Cost element. In such a case, the PCA Balances, after execution of Assesement cycle are shown with the Secondary Cost Elements.
In a case, I have booked costs of INR 100000 in a cost center 103007 against a Primary Cost Element 423101. Since Profit Center 103007 is assigned in Cost Center 103007, the Profit Center Line Items will show a balance of INR 100000 against cost element 423101 for Profit Center 103007.
After this at month end, we need to allocate costs from Cost Center to COPA. But the requirement is that after allocation also, the balances should be shown against Cost Element 423101 for Profit Center 103007

Sanil

Hi Sanil
That is not possible.. There is no "Distribution cycle" available for COPA.. In COPA you can have either an Assessment Cycle or an Indirect Act Allocation or a Template Allocation...
I dont know about template allocation as I have never used that, but gut feel says even that wont serve the purpose...
One work around is you allocate from Cost Center to an Internal Order using Distribution cycle... Then Allocate from IO to COPA using assessment... In order to use IO as sender in allocation cycle, use note 605281
At best, what you can do is to use an Allocation Structure instead of one single assessment cost element per Segment... Using an Alloc Str, you can map, say, GL Accounts for Basic Salary, DA, HRA to one Secondary cost element... This way, create logical groupings of GL accounts and map to multiple secondary cost elements
But bear in mind, The more you use Secondary cost elements, the more will be the line items in CE1XXXX table...

Split Valuation Material Cost Estimate into COPA

Hi all,
Is there any way how we can transfer the split valuation material cost estimate into COPA?
I checked the actual line items, there is no "valuation type / batch" characteristics there.
Is this the main cause?
Please kindly suggest on the best way to solve this issue
Thank you very much
Regards, Erwin

Hi, Ajay
Does this mean that, even though i manage to create the valuation type as characteristic in COPA, i won't be able to get 2 different cost estimate based on valuation type into COPA?
Hm, then, are there any solutions which can be done to solve this issue?
The client needs a COPA report which can show the breakdown of the sold materials cost estimates
As usual, thank you very much for your help
Regards, Erwin

Cost elements in COPA assessment cycle

Hi Experts,
I would like to know the following points while interacting with COPA reports
I have sales revenue items and financial expenses item.
How we define the structure for getting these balances into COPA reports. or is it the right way of checking the balances financial expenses with COPA reports which are not a part of production.
Can anybody please give me some inputs how to define the structure or base for getting the copa reports.
Your early replies are most appreciated
Thanks ans Regards,
Ram

Hi
Both have different purpose...
When you allocate - The cost center is credited and COPA (prof Segment) is Debited...
The credit entry is posted to cost center using a secondary cost element (Catg 42)... This is determined from Allocation Str
The Debit entry to COPA is posted/allocated to COPA in a Value Field.... PA Trf Str is the place where you map Cost Ele to Value field.. Upon allocation, the value will flow to the specified value field
Note that in KEU1, you can directly specify "Assessment cost ele" and by pass the Alloc Str
Note that in KEU1, you can directly specify a Value Field and by pass the PA Trf Str

Material cost estimation in COPA

Hello Everyone
I have question regarding how details of cost Estimate will flow to COPA Report.
Variance of Product cost will flow in COPA through PA Transfer Structure and its flowing on my report. However, I want to flow COGM (break up of the cost components) on COPA reports.
I have done below steps but itu2019s not flowing.
I have maintained Define Costing Keys for Accessing Material Cost Estimates. ( I have maintained 3 key with different Period Indicators.
A. Released Standard cost estimate matching goods issue
     B. Current standard cost estimate to entry in Mat
     C. Material cost estimate matching posting date.
Assign costing key in material ledger and i activate material ledger in actual costing/ material ledger.
I have chosen table lookup with MBEW on source fields in u201COriginu201D tab with        MATNR, BWKEY and BWTAT as field and in assignment I have take VPRSV.
Maintain another with same field name in Source and selected KALAWI in Target fields.
            And assigned the costing keys to key for accessing material cost to step1
I have assigned Cost Component structure to operating concern. ( I have created
Value fields which shows the details for COGM in Cost sheet and maintained the same in it.)
I have maintained external material group and assigned to Material master.
After doing all the above steps Material Ledger TAB is getting populated on the Material Master but when I run the Standard Cost Estimate its not showing details for Cost of sales in COPA.
Please do let me know if I need to do any additional steps with.
Thanks in Advance.
Srinivas

Hi Srinu,
By activating Material Ledger without knowing about it and without knowing it's relevancy to the client's business process....YOU DID A BLUNDER MISTAKE
Materia Ledger along with Actual Costing need to be activated if you want to go for Actual Costing inaddition to Standard Costing.
"""Once activate Material Ledger for any Plant, you willl not be able to de-activate""".
In which client are you doing this? It it in only Golden Master, just immediately deactivate ML. If you have already copied the customization request to Unit Testing Client, you cannot do anything there, but don'g transport it to Quality Server.
When you activate ML, many things right from basics will change...for example Price Indicator in Material Master (S or V). Hell lot of descipline is required during Period-End closing etc.
YOU SHOULD NOT ACTIVATE MATERIAL LEDGER UNLESS THE BUSINESS PROCESS REALLY NEEDS IT -- this only suggestion from my side...
First you deactivate and come back to know about Costing Key...

Change in Cost Allocation Flexfield

Hello,
Client is currently using HRMS for the past one year. Now we need to make a small change in the Cost Allocation Flexfield structure. How will this affect the past data. How can we address this scenario. I seek your expert advise to handle this effectively.

Hello Gaurav,
We're trying to change the value of a segment from 4 digits to 5 digits. We want to update the existing values. Is this possible from the back end.

Cost allocation without a fixed %

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have a peculiar query. My client would like to allocate costs (in Controlling) on varying percentages every period. For example on the basis of the % of COGS to Sales of the products. Though the method of calculating this % will stay the same, the percentage per se will change every period.
Can this be done in SAP Controlling?
Thanks & Regards,
Sangeeta

Hiya,
Can you look at this thread please? It will save me some work typing the whole thing here again:

Common cost allocation to assets in service at different times

Hi,
My client constructs large assets that typically go into service over a period of several months. They track some asset costs on tasks assigned to a grouping level of specific assets, while other "general" costs are coded to a task assigned to a grouping level of "Common costs". The problem is that when one of the assets gets placed into service, all of the "common" costs get allocated to that assets. This is resulting in disproportionately larger asset costs for the first one placed in service and a smaller share of those costs allocated to the last asset placed into service.
What is the best method to get these general-type costs to allocate proportionately across all the assets even though they are placed in service across several different months?
Thanks!

Hi
The problem of equal prorating the common costs is that task may still incur costs after the first asset has been placed in service. The other assets will also incur additional costs.
You may consider holding the common cost till the end of the entire project. That task should not be assigned to common cost, but instead assigned it to a separate asset, with quantity of 100 units. When project is completed and all other assets are placed in service go and interface the "common" asset lines to FA.
In Mass Addition split that last asset into separate N assets, where N is the number of real assets generated from that project. Now add the cost of the last "common" assets to the other assets already in FA.

Cost Allocation to Assets at a Task

Consider the following scenario
In Project A ,
Asset Cost Allocation Method = Spread Evenly
Group Method = Expenditure Type
An Asset A1 is created and assigned to the Task T1
Accumlate the CIP cost at Task 1
Then Run the Process "PRC: Generate Asset Lines for a Single Project"
When the process is finished the asset lines are generated and cost lines are assigned to asset A1.
Then Run the Process "PRC: Interface Assets to Oracle Assets" so the Asset A1 is interfaced to
Oracle FA
In Oracle FA RUn "Post Mass Addition
Next month a new Asset A2 is created and assigned to the Task T1
Accumlate the new CIP cost at Task 1
When the process is finished the asset lines are generated and cost lines are assigned to Asset A1
and Asset A2.
So why the new cost is assigned to both Assets A1 and A2. A1 is already assigned to the interfaced
to Oracle FA.
Can't we achieve that the new cost only to Asset A2 which is not interfaced to Oracle FA and not to
Asset A1.
Regards,

Hi
In case there are many projects , tasks and assets, consider using the client extensions available for capital projects.
You can develop the custom code for automatically generating assets in one client extension, and utilize the other extension to group costs into the relevant asset based on your own company logic.

Msg. error BK048 for manual cost allocation

Hi,
we got a warning message for manual cost allocation (KB15N), when posting this allocation just with a quantity and without an amount. We would like to post this allocation without amount and therefore need to change the message type from warning (W) to information (I), to do this posting.
When using transaction OBA5, there is just a fixed and not adjustable value for Standard with "W". Do you know any workarounds or how we can change this message type to do this posting?
Regards
Florian

Hi Florian,
HAve you assigned users in OBA5?.
Go to OBMSG, for this particular Message number in the allowed message types, specify IWE etc. In the standard column specify I. Also you could check on check box "Switch Off" if you want to have the option of not seeing the message at all.
Now goto OBA5, against the message number, in the "Online" column , specify I or - (Switch Off) and do the same in the BAtchl column also.
Now you need too specify a user only if you want this change for specific users , if you want all the users to be able to post manual cost allocation then do not specify any user name.
Do tell me if it works.
Regards
Susan

Transferring results of material cost estimates to COPA

Hi,
I heard that it is possible to transfer the standard prices of materials estimated in material cost estimate to COPA.
Which transation is used for this purpose?
Regards,
Karol

Karol,
Incase of made to stock scenario, there is no specific transcation code to transfer the stanadrad price of a material to COPA it gets automatically transferred to COPA when the billing document are released to accounts.
The variance in the production order if any will be transferred to COPA when theproducion order is finally settled.

Cost allocation flexfield

hi
after reading payroll UG, i am a bit confused about cost allocation flexfield for payroll, assignment, element link, org,element entry.
can i consider this flexfield as a T ledger, the first popup field is for Debit, the second one is for Credit purposes, when they are used for those 5 sections?

the payroll - org - element entry - assignment - element link are levels at which you can define to show a segment or not.
In case a segment is specified at a higher level, it is inherited from the other levels, so an end user has not to enter all the data all over again. (like a waterfall)
The most detailed level is the element entry level. Imagine if the end user must enter there for each segment and for each segment all values. Too much work and too error prone.
So you can set values for a specific segment at a specific level (example company code at payroll level).
Costing then rolls up all levels to fully qualify all the segments.

Cost Elements and COPA Value Fields

Hi All,
Should all the cost elements created in CO be assigned to value fields in Costing Based COPA?
I am a bit confused . . .
Regards,
Ravi Kumar

Hi ravi,
Basically fist you understood, how the values are flowing into the CO-PA. ie When ever billing document generated co-pa document generates automatically. based on your condition type and account keys.
While defining pricing procedure, they mapped the conditon type against releavant account key.
Based on the releavant account key they assigned releavant cost element under VKOA.
Against these condtion types they assgined value filed under KE4I in co-pa.
This is the way system will capture cost elemetns under copa. KIndly revert in case any issue.

Maruthi.
