COPA Assessment Plan creation

Hi ..
I'm having a scenario whereby .... I'm trying to select Assessment CElem in the Segment Header tab ... when I try to select ... I receive a message in bottom " No valid assessment cost element have ben created " does this means I have to create in CO module ?
In this case I have a value field VV009 Marketing Cost, in which Assessment CElem has to be matched ? Please correct me if I'm wrong ...
What should be my next due course of action ...
Please advise
Nathan

Hi
You are wrong. You have to create a secondary cost element with category 42.
I am not sure what you mean by your second statement. Normally you assess certain costs from cost centers to a value field like VV009 Marketing Cost. You also need to mention the secondary cost element also.
This would solve your error.

  • COPA Assessment Cycles and FI Period closing.

    Hi Gurus,
    I have question related to the COPA Assessment cycles.
    We have closed the FI Period 03 and running the COPA Assessment cycles. while running the same, for few of the assesment cycles are completed and for the rest of the few  cycles it is error out stating the Period is closed.
    Why it is running successfully for few cycles and why it is complaining for Period closing for the others. We are on ECC 6 Version of SAP.
    Error out cycles contains Cost accounts and Asset Account GL Accoutns.

    Hi:
    If your CO allocation has some external postings (like GL or fixed assets) or generating some intercompany documents, then it needs FI to be open also. It happens sometimes if the allocation goes external so it would need fI period to be open also. If FI is close but CO is open, it would only work for CO specific allocations and others would error out.
    Please check the cycle/segment which is in error. If it is suppose to hit FI, then FI (OB52) and CO (OKP1) periods should be in sync.
    Thanks.

  • Value Transfer through Characteristics in COPA Assessment

    Dear All,
    Here I am getting one issue regarding Revenue doubled in COPA Reports, not matching between FI & COPA reports because of SD condition types problems some of billing documents posted double revenue in COPA reports.
    Now I want re-post extra revenues from Product/Customer Characteristics to Dummy Characteristics, how to solve this issue.
    I tried in COPA Assessment, but not possible because senders only Cost Elements or Cost Centers.
    My requirement is at month end we have to run TDD (Top Down Distributions) with reference of Actual Revenue. If I run TDD entire COPA report will show wrongly.
    How to solve above issue please help me.
    KBR

    Hi Reddy Anna
    How can double amount get posted in COPA alone and not in FI? Please check that
    May be you are seeing double because you are displaying both currency types in COPA report (Op Conc and Comp Code)
    However, if its truly genuine double amount, reverse the document and repost after making corrections in SD Pricing procedure.. Use KE4S

  • CO period locked - can we unlock period and do COPA assessment?

    Hi Friends,
    CO period has been locked for last month, but some of the cost center assessment to COPA has not been carried out last month, resulting in amount lying in cost center itself.
    Could you please let me know whether we can unlock last month in CO through OKP1 and perform CC assessment to COPA now through KEU5? What impact or issue it would create if we unlock and perform COPA assessment now.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Dwarak.

    Hi,
    That's purely dependent on your business requirements. If the client wants to keep the period closed as he already published the financial figures, he might not be happy of having some updates afterwards. So, every opening of the period should be authorized by him. There are no technical aspects in this issue.

  • COPA Sales Planning issue

    Hi,
    We are uploading COPA sales planning price and quantity to derive the Revenue.
    Revenue = sales planning price * quantity
    Currency = USD (as default 2 decimal places)
    In Excel file we maintained planning price = USD 1.561 and Sales Quantity = 50000.
    The expected results in KEPM after upload is = 1.561 x 50000 = 78050.
    Once uploaded the results in KEPM shows:
    Planning price = USD 1.560 & Quantity = 50000
    The results is = 78000.
    FYI - the planning layout is Integrated Excel and field for Sales Planning Price have been set to 3 decimals.
    This have caused differences in reporting. Is there a way to make SAP calculation accept 3 decimals instead of 2 decimals.

    KEPM will display the currency decimal places based on settings in table TCURX. In this case, only 2 decimal places allowed for USD even though the planning layout have been set to >2.

  • PWB : Installment Plan Creation Letter

    Hello Experts,
    I am working on a PWB for Installment Plan Creation form. After completing the development I noticed the correspondence type as 0005 and events aassigned to it as 708 (Print - ISU_PRINT_INSTPLAN_0708) and 709 (Creation - FKK_SAMPLE_0709).
    But when I create installment plan for a customer using FPR1 I fail to encounter this event while debugging. Hence I am not able to trigger this form. Also after completion of FPR1,  FKK_INSTPLN_HEAD gets populated but DFKKCOH is not yet populated and FPCOPARA fails to save the entered details before scheduling as they fail to retrieve any records from DFKKCOH (Correspondence table).
    Please advice if I am doing something wrong or I have possibly missed any configurations.
    Kind Regards.
    Vinay Kabde.

    Hi Vinay,
    I think the events 708 and 709 have not been assigned to the correspondence typpe 0005 in the configuration.
    You need to assign the events against the correspondence type in the following SPRO path-
    Financial Accounting->Contract Accounts receivable and payable->Basic Functions->Correspondence->Define Correspondence Type.
    Choose Correspondence type as 0005 and click on the control button.
    Under the events tab, you need to maintain the following-
    Event concept-Event Concept from Contract Accounts receivable and payable
    Print Time-708
    Creation Event-709.
    If you are using a customised application form for the instalment plans, you also need to assign the customised application form under the following SPRO path against the correspondence type 0005-
    Financial Accounting->Contract Accounts receivable and payable->Basic Functions->Correspondence->Define Application form for correspondence
    Hope it helps....
    Thanks,

  • How to analyse the Receiver Tracing Factor in COPA Assessment cycle -KEU5

    Hi
    While executing the COPA Assessment cycle,we will get receiver tracing factor.My client wants to know how we got that.How can i analyse that Receiver tracing factor?Kindly advice me...
    How can I recalculate the tracing factor for assesstment?
    For example, Actual Assessment Cycle RS_A01 under Segment ITCMFG2AD uses Variable Portions Rule for Receiver tracing Factor with Value Field of 62 Sales.
    The intent of this assessment was to be allocated based upon sales dollar values however when I review the test calculation, it appears the tracing factor is in billions of dollars when our monthly sales are in the million of dollars range.
    Supriya

    Hi,
    If Receier Tracing Factor Rule is Variable Portion, then please also check the Receiver Weighting factor (the last tab in the assessment cycle, it normally is 100 for the receivers.
    Secondly also check if there is different currency setting in CO Area & the Operating Concern which translates into different figures.
    Hope this works.
    Regards

  • COPA-Assessment cycle KEU5

    We have run cost center -assessment cycle for a cost center group and all the cost of the profit centers are distributed to respective costcenters.And now we goto COPA-Assessment cycle KEU5 and run the cycle for the cycle with same cost center group as sender.
    System posts a difference amount of positive amount in the credit side of each costcenter of that group.Which reduces the credit value and shows in over/under absorption.
    Please suggest where from the system is finding the difference when all the costcenters are with zero value as cost is distributed thru CCA assessment cycle.What differences will a cycle run in co-pa determine.Please suggest.

    Hi,
    Actually, the Sales overhead and Corporate expenses which are captured in the Cost Center shall be allocated to the COPA. All other expenses captured in other Cost Centers shall be allocated to the Production and shall be absorped into the products manufactured. Hence, the same Cost Center shall not be used as sender in both the cycles. If we use like what you described, it will definitely result in over absorption that is more credits. Hence, please describe why need to add the same Cost Center group in both the CC cycle and Copa CC cycle.
    Trust this helps much!
    Cheers!

  • COPA Assessment Cycles

    Hi Guru,
    I really need some help with setting up COPA assessment cycles in 6.0.  I have used the best practice guides but unfortunately they were to lazy to be thorough.  I am using transaction code KEU7 to create the cycle.  I have attached a few segments to the cycle and added the sender/receiver (cost centers, companycode) details aswell. I checked it before saving the cycle and i got no error messages.  Now when i execute the cycle through tcode KEUB i get errorr/warning messages saying that "no valid sender entries found" and "this segment does not contain any senders".  I am not sure what i am missing and what i may be doing incorrectly.  Can someone please help me understand how to rectify this issue.  I am extremely generous with rewarding points!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Shaun

    Hi Smith,
    Basically we created copa cycles in KEU1 and execute through KEU5.Find that recivers are product hi-erarachies, In our orgainisation  Corporate oh are be charge to products through copa cycles.
    Coming to your problem,When ever you define new copa cyle you find the error in differet ways.
    1) NO VALID SENDER FOUND  for segment means, Go to the segment there is an button ie consistancy chek box.Click on the check box System returns relavant segment.Observe that segment contains valid senders and revicers are produtc hierarachies or not.
    2) Other wise go to the segment and clik on find button, give the cost center, cost elements.Observe secondary cost elements and rules.
    3) other wise you can directly execute the co-pa cycle and click on segments.Here you can easily find that sender contains valid recivers or not.Basically these kind of error message will appears still now there is no Transaction passed to that products..
    I hope you understood.

  • COPA Assessment issue

    Hi
    I have set up a COPA Assessment (KEU1) using "variable portions" as the tracing factor. However, when I go to execute the assessment (KEU5) I get an error message GA733 "The segment contains no receivers". However, I have set up my receiving characteristics and value field correctly and do no see where there could be a problem.
    I have checked OSS Notes 61370 and 180993 but neither seems to resolve this.
    Has anyone had this problem before, or know of a resolution?
    Many Thanks

    There are two more notes 97087 and 128538. You may want to check them as well, provided they apply to your release.

    and your assessing to profit center 2000
    you booked actual cost $9000 to cost center 1000 and profit center 1000
    when you assess the posting like this
    Cr:$9000 to CC 1000 and PC1000
    Dr:$9000 to PSG and PC2000
    postings are going to be in PCA also.
    Hope this helps you.

  • COPA Assessment Cycle

    Hi,
       I prepared one copa assessment cycle(T.code : KEU1) with a receiver type -Variable portions / Revenue with Billing type (F) . When i run the COPA Assessment cycle , i got a message that no sender values found. I created some revenue entries in the period 12 and some Cost center related expenditure.
      I prepared another cycle with receiving type as fixed amounts. When i run the KEU5 , The values are perfectly flowing.
      Any inputs on this. Thanks in advance.
    Thanking You,
    D.K.Lakshmi Narayana

    Hello Pran,
    With reference to your Error
    1) Please check the value of Sender. I think it is 0.
    2) In second case please add the reported GL in allocation structure KF which you are using.
    Hope this will help you.
