Comprehensive report of Cost Object with Cost elements

Hi,
I am in search of such report that shows amounts against cost elements that is grouped by cost centre with cumulative amount. Any idea of such program/transaction?
In JVA there exists such report with transaction GJRG_5J1B but it only shows such values that have joint venture documents.
Thanks in advance
Regards

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, there are many standard reports that I found but there options are not what I am in search of. Actually what I need is to have cost elements with amounts in current period, current year and date of inception, i..e 4 columns. All total of which is being shown in the last row, which is grouped by Cost Centre. Like in your mentioned report, the limitation is it can view single fiscal year.
Hope you would be helping in this regard.
Thanks n Regards

CO data extraction: report table CO object product cost accounting

In R/3 I have a report which has been created with the Report Writer (tCode GR31). It uses a library based on the report table CO object product cost accounting (KKBC).
The interesting aspect is that this library contains the characteristic sales order number (KDAUF). Using it as well as other characteristics (cost element, value type, results analysis version), the key figure total costs SWKG has been restricted (in the BI meaning) in a variety of ways, giving several restricted key figures.
I am looking for the corrisponding content objects in BW which could allow obtaining the same result. My issue is that all the objects I've found apparently don't have the detail of 0DOC_NUMBER.
After reading the manual page <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/cb/149b3979e90e1be10000000a114084/frameset.htm">InfoCubes in Controlling</a> I've considered the following InfoCubes:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/64/0a6937adf79120e10000009b38f842/frameset.htm">CO-PC-OBJ: Cost Object Controlling</a> (0PC_C01)
It contains only the data of cost elements linked to production orders. As a consequence, the costs elements linked generically to the customer orders are not present. Please notice that the navigational attribute 0DOC_NUMBER is an attribute of 0PRODORDER.
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/33/6db6385443bd7ae10000009b38f8cf/content.htm">CO-OM: Costs and Allocations (Delta Extraction)</a> (0COOM_C02)
It contains all the cost elements, thus also those which are linked to the customer orders. Unfortunately the data are not at the desired level of detail, being aggregated with respect to 0DOC_NUMBER. When a cost element is linked to a production order, the characteristic partner object (0PIOVALUE) contains the production order number. However for those cost elements which are linked to sales documents, the characteristic partner object has no value.
Do you have any idea what DataSource could give me all the data I need, currentrly extracted in R/3 through the KKBC reporting structure?
Cheers, Davide

Hello all,
the thread Business Content for Product Cost by Sales Order by Christian J explains the very same problem I'm facing - in a much clearer way. Unfortunately his issue hasn't been completely solved.
Has anyone any idea about it?

Please put a cost object with valid JV data for GL accoutnt (line 001)

Dear All,
When the user is trying to post ASKBN, They are getting an error saying "Please put a cost object with valid JV data for GL accoutnt (line 001)"
So we tried to look up the error, and the WBS, Cost center, profit center and JVA details are all available in place. Still cant understand why this error comes. And why the system is asking to put JV details when they are available.
On checking, WBS has an AUC and AUC has the cost center which has the JV details and PC details. So I think everything is in place.
Can someone help please and let us know if we are missing anything else that needs to be checked ?
Thanks,
Hari Dharen

Dear Hari Dharen,
if something else in missung you'll get a error message if you run ASKBN in testmodus.

The performance of Distribution of Cost Object Hierarchy Costs.

Dear SAP Gurus.
I am checking the function and the performance about Cost Object Hierarchies distribution with Control Through Variance Key.
The number of production orders assigned to COH is about 100,000 per month.
All orders will be closed at current month and new 100,000 production order will be assigned to COH at next month.
My concern is about performance of Distribution of Cost Object Hierarchy Costs
because a huge number of orders will be accumulatedly assigned to the Cost Object Hierarchies.
I think that the COH will be distributed with not bad performance.
(Actually I want that to be OK.)
What's your opinion about that?
Sincerely.
Mahnkwi.

Hi Mahnkwi,
Sender-/receiver-relations should definitely be below 1:1000 or even below 1:500. This depends on other factors like general size of the hierarchy and data to be processed as well. This hierarchy needs to be restructured. In case you do this the
distribution needs to be reversed first.
Below are some other hints on performance in KKPX
- Parallel processing should be used.(note [386508|https://css.wdf.sap.corp/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=0000386508])
- Switch off detail lists since the consume lots of memory.
- Old orders should be archived.
Note [77718|https://css.wdf.sap.corp/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=0000077718] also explains tips to avoid the memory error for transaction KKPX or KKPY. As note explains, you should consider
whether a distribution of the cost elements according to their origin is required; if not, the corresponding indicator should not be set in the costing view of the materials.
If many error message is issued in the error log, this may have bad effect on the memory of your server. In this case, you should make these error message "not to be displayed" by message control in IMG.

Declan

How to populate the sales order as a cost object in cost element posting

When posting sales to a cost element the error comes up stating Account ******** requires an assignment to a CO object.
This comes from the sales (repair) order and I would like to pass the sales order and line as a cost object.
Could someone please tell me where I would make the configuration to pass that into the accounting document?
Thank you,
Sergiy

Snavaneetha,
unfortunatelly I don't have access to any CO consultants that could help me on this one. We are a small company so I am an unofficial CO consultant for time being
Anyway, maybe I should post this one on the CO forum as well.
I looked at the material master and I don't see the field for the GL account or cost element anywhere like you said. I do see the account assignment group and that's where my account determination procedure determines the right one to use, and it is trying to post to the account I need it to post but I get the above error, for some reason the sales order that I am billing for does not get passed at a cost object to this cost element account during billing.

Cost assignment-Multiple cost objects being selected by default from the EP

Hi,
I have created an expense report from the Portal and entered the cost object - a WBS element and saved the report. Now, when I check in table: PTRV_SCOS, it shows me the cost object assigned are - both - the WBS Element as well as the Cost center. This is incorrect as there should be only one cost object - either the cost center or the WBS element. However, when I book the expenses from the backend, it works fine. Only the WBS or cost center is displayed in the table mentioned above. Anyone has any idea as to why this is happening?
Many thanks in advance for your efforts.
Cheers guys.
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi All,
First of all, thanks for your responses..
Right, about the issue, what I explained here was that I am indeed assigning only one cost object: the WBS element. The issue was that even though I am assigning only the WBS element, it was also assigning the cost to the cost center by default. I did some R&D and found the solution to the issue (I was also asked to look for OSS notes but was not satisfied that this issue needs an OSS note to be applied so tried my solution). The issue was in table: T788M (allocate costs to variable account assignment). Here, I created an entry and called it USERGROUP_2 (just a random name) and assigned the variable cost objects (only the WBS and the Cost center) to be displayed. In the next step, I assigned this usergroup to the country in quesion feature (TRVCO). By doing this, I tell the system that only these cost objects are to be considered when an employee wants to assign the cost object. If the system sees that there is no value from the drop down to choose from, it picks up the default cost object (cost center). This was a simple issue that I had to rattle my brains on... but the solution I mention above worked like a hot knife going through butter...
If you guys face this issue, please try this else feel free to get in touch with me on my number below.
Once again, thanks for your responses.

Cost center and Cost element.

Hi all,
I am in an urgent need to understand the relation between cost center and cost element. Please provide me with their individual information as well as the link they share. An existing relationship table between the two, if any, ...then plz mention.
Thanks & Regards,
Naresh

Cost Element: cost element is an individual which carry cost like salaries, wages, power expenses, etc.. These Cost Elements are Two types
1. Primary Cost Element
2. Secondary Cost Elements
Primary Cost Element will carry cost form FI to CO (Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc)
Seconday Cost Elements carry cost with in CO to different Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc
Cost Center: Cost Center is an individual which contain collection of costs. For example Admin is a cost center, it contain costs like Salaries, Power, Rent, Stationary etc,
With this following report you can retrieve cost elements given a cost center controlling cost center accounting information systems reports for cost center accounting plan/actual comparisons

Sale of Material - Assignment to Cost Object Error

Dear Forum,
The users while trying to do the PGI, encountered the error - "Account xxxxx requires an assigment to Cost Objet". However, when we check the Material Master, for doing the OKB9 maintenance, we get the message 'Costing View' not maintained for thie material. How could be the reason and how can we address this issue.
Another issue is that the posting is going to the wrong GL Account, which is mentioned in the aforesaid error message. How can we check the MM Account Determination to verify the correctness of the GL Account for posting of the Cost of Sales at the time of PGI.
Thanks for the help.
Regards

Hi,
Use transaction code: KA02: enter G/L account xxxxx(Cost element) and in default acct assinmt TAB,assign the Cost Center and save.
Now try ur transaction.
OR
Check the field status of the account in FS00. If this account requires CO object as mandatory then check whether a cost element is created or not , this error normally occurs when CO object is mandatory but relevant cost element is not created.
Example: CO object may be cost center, cost element, WBS element
OR
Use t.code OKB9 and assign G/L account to cost object with ur company code and save.
For more check the link

For 2nd issue
Check VAY in OBYC under GBB

General Cost Object

Hi there,
Anyone familiar with the General Cost Object out there please? (referring to KKC1 - under "Intangible Goods and Services" from the SAP menu.
*Background*
I am looking to a further dimension (cost object) to breakdown/attribute costs; a cost is now attributed at a GL account, a cost center and an internal order; for some reason i need to have a further cost objective; i found the "general cost objective" and thought of them as a solution altought they are indicated for "intangible goods and services" which is not my case...
*So far..*
I have created cost object with Tcode KKC1, quite straightforward and posted a journal to a GL account / Cost center / Cost Object (I left to one side the internal order for the time being)
*Issue 1*
- the KKC1 is asking for a Profit Center as part of the Cost Object master data (mandatory field);
Question: can this field be customisable in the IMG and be left blak? we have a 1 to 1 association betwen CC and PC, the same cost object should be used on many CC;
*Issue 2*
When I try to build the report in report painter to extract the info from the journal using Table CCSS, the 3 caracteristics ( GL account, Cost Center, Cost Object ) are not available whithin the same report; I can only extract GL and Cost Center or Cost center and Cost Objct; same problem using KSB1 ( single posting for cost center ) or KKCS (single posting for cost object)
*Question*: is there a table or some setting i am missing in creating a report painter to extract simulaneously values by GL, Cost Center and Cost Object?
*General Question*
Is there any other "object of CO" i can use to achieve the goal highlithed above?
TA!
Domenico

HI,
question 1: if the cost object is used for different cost center/profit centers, assign the general profti-center to this cost object (or Dummy PRCTR). Even if its possible to leave it "blank" it does not solve your problem.
question 2: don't know, but sounds not so easy...
question 3 (general question): No
I used cost objects once for the same reason you are describing it and it was helpful, but I never had the issue with report painter...

Assign Cost Object to Bal. Sheet Account???

Hi experts;
     I found at my customer site that they set the fields of WBS element, Cost Center, Profit Center and Network are applicable with Bal. Sheet accounts at the time of Document entry like F-02.
     When I discussed with them that the B/S accounts should not be linked to any cost object and cost objects are only for the P/L accounts they said yes that is right in general, but they do that with some certain accounts like the Accrued Revenue to know exactly how much is expected to be collected from each project.
     But also as far I know that through the Document Split function on system I can get such result because if we assigned a Cost Obj. to a P/L account the system assign it to the other line of the document entry if it is B/L account, but I did not practice the Doc. Split before.
     So can someone kindly advice wither such process is correct or not? and if not, does it has any wrong impact if they insisted to do it? And does the Doc. Split can really help in such matter?
Many thanks in advance;
Best regards;
Ahmad Mahmud;

Hi Ahmad Mahmud,
The below is taken from SAP Note 75978 - Cost element type 90
"Cost elements of category 90 were introduced with 3.0 to enable an availability control on an internal order assigned to a fixed asset even with directly activated asset acquisitions. This functionality is guaranteed by SAP and will be enhanced by the planning of these cost elements in Release 4.0.
The check, however, that cost elements of category 90 can only be created for asset reconciliation accounts, has only been made since Release 3.0F. Before, it was possible to create any balance sheet accounts as cost element of category 90. Since cost elements created this way were not covered by functionality provided by SAP, various errors may occur when you post to these cost elements."
As you can see SAP does not support cost element type 90.
However I used them on e few projects and never have any problems.
Just to give you an example of the reasons they are sometimes needed:
- you need to record production quantity in CO-PA. You will create cost element type 90 for your inventory account. Every GR from production order will update quantity in CO-PA.
The question about splitting is quite ineteresting.
Maybe one of the NewGL experts can help you here.

Szymon

Actual cost distribution in cost object hierarchies

Hi all,
I cannot distribute the actual costs collected on a cost object hierarchy since the costs are retrieved from an assessment cycle with a cost element with category 42 (assessment).
I would like to assign my production cost centers balances to cost object hierarchy and then distribute it with transaction KKPX - Distribution of cost object hierarchy costs.
Would someone have any idea how I could proceed?
Thanks in advance.
