COPA Configuration for In house producction Material

Hi all,
in the normal flow both Revenue and Cost are through value field ERLOS and Material costs or Material External Production. But for the in house production material in addition to the above all the labour cost and maaterial costS, OH Costs are getting posted to COPA. How to avoid this
What is the COPA Configuration required for the in house production material.
Thanks in advance for the valuable inputs in this regard.
Surya

Hi
WHy do you want to avoid it? If material is a trading material - the COGS has only one single figure.. But in the case of In house material, it has a break up like RM, Labor, Overhead, etc
Why do you want to avoid it? I dont think thats correct
Still, if you want to avoid it, remove the value field assignment in KE4R... Just specify the VPRS condition type in KE4I and mapp it to a value field

COPA ISSUE for Cost Splitting of material

Hi ALL,
My client is having some new requirement in COPA for the Promotional items. As they always create new material code for Promotional item which will be combination of more than 1 material sometimes it will be created with the combination of 3/4/5---10 materials.
Now they create seperate Material code for the same. Clients wants to flow the values for the Promotional item to COPA reporting at the parent level i.e. Promotional item and at the Child level also i.e. used material componants for promotional item.
They wants Both level Revenue/Qty/Cost everything to be flowed to COPA. Now they will create sales order for the promotional material and it will have the all values related to promotional material.
Is there any solution for the same to be displayed in COPA reporting in SAP.
Thanks & Regards

Hi
Review this thread... COPA alternatives for posting kits at header(real)&subitem(statistic) level
There is one solution by me and another by Nikolas... Review both and you can make a choice

COPA Configuration for settlement of Production Variances

Hi,
Can anybody explain me detail configuration steps required to settle production variances to COPA in case of Make to Stock Scenario.
Helpful answers will be rewarded with points.
Regards
Milind Nair

Hi
These are broadly the requirements for settling production variances:
1.) The production variances first need to be calculated in CO-PC.
2. Your PA transfer structure must contain assignments of variance categories to COPA value fields.
3. In the settlement profile, you define the variances to be settled and profitability segments should be a valid receiver.
4. The settlement rule to profitability segments is created automatically based on the information available in the production order (product, product group, plant and so on).
5. You must have maintained number ranges for record type "C".
6. The desired form of Profitability Analysis (costing based) must be active in the relevant controlling area.
Hope this is useful

PO Qty in SKU configuration for specific Material Group in PO

Dear All,
I face issue when I do MIGO, which is that unit measure KG can not covert to stockunitstock unit measure PC.
After I checking, I found the following information in tab Qualities/Weights of PO:
PO Quantity                     2 PC     Order Unit <-> Ord. Price Unit        PC <->         KG
PO Qty in SKU               0.000        Order Unit <-> SKU             0      PC <-> 0
What I can configure is "Order Unit <-> Ord. Price Unit        PC <->         KG", but I can not conifgure "Order Unit <-> SKU" for PO to buy material group rather than sepcific material.
Could anybody can tell me how to configure "PO Qty in SKU               0.000        Order Unit <-> SKU             0      PC <-> 0" for PO to buy material group in ME21N?
I am looking forward to your kind suggestion, which is really appreciated!
Cheers!

Does anyone face the same issue before? could you give me any tips if you have such problem? thanks in advance!

Variant configuration for material in sap B1

Hi,
Please explain how item variants can be configured in SAP B1 against materials like SAP R3.
Noramlly all the attributes of amaterial cannot be incorporated in material code which are to be filled at the time of transaction in sale order. Every material is associated with a class which constitutes some characteristics . Those characteristics contain some pre defined value in variant.
Please explain if there is any scope of it in SAP B1.
Regards
Indranil

Hi
There is huge gap is there between R3 and SBO. u cant expect same thing in SBO which in R3.
Basic things SBO is gud for lite manfg company, traders. if u r looking for heavy manfg company then u have to look for addons r SDk with SBO.
Basically in SBo u can segrregrate the items by one item group only, & using some properties & udfs u can make subgroups.
Pls check this thread Slightly same kind of req.:

Quality info records: different pack configurations for same raw material

how can i differentiate different pack configuration for same raw material in quality info records, as one might approved and the other not? that is, besides creating different material master for each packaging?
thanks
Alisa

You need to use the MPN profile functionality that is a standard part of SAP.
In Config under the purchasing define the MPN profile. There are several options you can turn on/off including info records.
You assign the MPN profile to your material. It now is considered by SAP to be an internal material number.
You then create a HERS material type for each separate manufacturer material number you have. You only need the purchasing view for these materials. You can also create purchasing text views, classification and some others if you wish.
In the SAP approved vendors list (AVL), you then assign each manufacturer vendor(s) with the HERS material created.
You create a Q-info record for each manufacturer/HERS material combination.
Now, when you specify the internal material number in a PO, the system will tell you to order the MPN material. When you do the drop down for the material now, it will show you the approved manufacturers allowed in the AVL for the ordering plant.
When the 01 inspection lot is created you will have a vendor number as well as a manufacturer's number in the inspection lot. The DMR can be done by the manufacturer or the vendor depending on how you set up the inspection plan. Q-info record will be used accordingly.
Take a look at it and research it. It's not hard to set up.

Prevent to make PO/PR for In-house items

Can we prevent making PO/PR for In-house items?? As per my understanding SAP Should not allow preparation of PR/PO. Because GL Configuration of for Valuation class for Purchase Domestic & In-house items is different & costing of method also is different. So System should given error msg at the time of PO/PR Creation.
Plz guide..

Hi,
Best way is to follow Jurgen's advice.
Please go to SPRO --> Logistics General --> Material Master --> Basic Settings --> Material Types --> Define Attributes of Material Types
Note that this setting is based on material type.
1) Select the relevant material type by double clicking on it
2) At the Ext. Purchase Orders, choose 0 or 1 if you want. The difference is that with 1, you can still proceed with external purchase but a warning is issued.

In-house finish material Purchasing

HI
we are producing material "A" by ourselfs. Material type is = finish goods   , Material type setting: External Purchae order = 1 ( External purchase order allowed - but warning is issed ) . valuation class = 7920 - Finish goods, Price control = S
as i know, may be we can't put it in "hawa" trading goods class.
This is first and last time, we have to purchase this material from outside.
First Solution:
we did PR, PO, 103, while doing 105 we received following message.
{ "Account determination for entry <compan code> FRE 001___7920 not possible " }    means account determiation is not configured for valuation calss 7920.
where we can define account determination ?
Second Solution:
We can take material on loan : MBIC , Movement type = 971 - Receipt from loan.    and Payment through   AP invoice to vendor.
advise this is correct method or not.
Apart from above things, what is GURU opnion on this. what is Best way to map this in system. ? and method.
thanks \ thomas

Hi chakrapani
means. Guru Opnion is.
we should purchase this material ..   PR > PO > 103, 105 > Invoice . .   regardless of this we are purchasing this material first and last time, because we are producing this material in house
Material having > with valueation class 7920 , price control = S ( Standard ). with MRP maintenance .

KE4J -COPA error for costing key2

Hi,
We use common material type 'ZMAT' for normal Finished goods and configurable Finished material.
i created 2 costing keys and assigned respective costing variants in COPA as under
001 - zpc1 - Standard costing
002 - zpc2 - sales order costing - configurable material
Further i assigned in KE4J as under
10 F ZMAT 002 001
cost component split works fine for configurable material but for normal FG it encounters error message 'KE292'
however if set KE4J as
10 D ZMAT 001 002
then it works fine for normal material that is cost component split is derived properly and also no error occurs for configurable material but there is no cost component split for this material.
Is that something i am missing here. Also why system get hard stop in 1st case and doesn't look for costing key 2.
Regards,
At

Any suggestion - Ajay or professional collegue

Hi
It seems earlier the check box was ticked for "Issue error msg if no cost estimate found"... It was removed later on.. Is that so?
If you have created a SO / Billing doc when the tick was off, it cant give you the error message
I believe right sequence is 002 followed by 001...
In 002 - Tick the exclusive access.. DO NOT tick "Issue error message if not cost estimate found"
In 001 - Tick the :Issue error message if not cost estimate found
This should work in my opinion
Another option., You can also use KE4H and assign costing keys to Individual Material, if the no of mats are not much.... i.e. Say, For Configurable Material, you can assign costing keys to individual Products and for the rest of the materials use KE4J
Last option is to change the Mat Type of the configurable materials... For this, both the material types should be assigned to same valuation class so that you will be allowed to change in the Live System... In future, create all config materials under new material type

MM configurations for SAP AFS System

Hi,
        I'm working in MM configuration for SAP AFS production system, After uploading AFS Materials successfully and also created Purchase order to make a stock for that material, but PO created successfully but not able to do Goods receipts for created PO.
       Errors : Purchase order xxxxx has no items,
Once created sales order for the same material again we got the error while GR but error is different.
      GR is not possible for this PO number.
But material type is ROH , and its external procurement only.
Please let me know when we will get this type of errors.
Thanks and regards
Nisar.

Hi Nasir;
Some possible causes are;
1.     Defining inbound delivery (Or kind of a confirmation) in the PO LI level and not maintaining the document subsequently
2.     Not releasing the PO before the GRN
3.     Creating the PO with a material with Grids (AFS Basic Data Screen) and not maintaining the grid value at item detail level of the PO

COPA derivation for thecombination of Cost center and Cost element/GL accou

Hi Gurus,
In COPA derivation using KEDR i am trying to make a derivation for the
combination of Cost center and Cost element. Here i got following problems
While posting FI document using t.code FB50 system not automatically
updating the fields Cost center and cost element in Profitability
segment. Hence system not posting COPA document. How can i make this
derivation? Is there any note should i apply regarding these.
How can i create cost element as characteristic.
If i configure derivation for the combination of Cost center and cost
element will it be posted with copa document for postings or automatic
postings from MM,HR and FI
Pls provide me solution at the earliest.
Thanks and Best regards,

Hi Murali
Thanks for update
I explain my req clearly
For me segment is Distribution channel field (EXPORT and DOMESTIC)
If GL account is 1000-2000     always                      Export
If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     X then Export.
If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     Y then Domestic.
Based on above REQ i am making derivation using KEDR T.code.
These postings should work for all modules postings such as MM, HR also.
Actually this should work automatically and after saving the transaction we should have copa document also.
But problem is in source fields of derivation we have GL account (HKONT) and Cost element (KSTAR). I am making derivation using either of these.
But after posting document system not giving COPA document.
I found the reason is at GL postings we are giving input to GL account (HKONT) but we took in KEDR source field as GL account (SAKNR). GL account (HKONT) is not updating GL account (SAKNR) field in PSEG screen in Fb50. Even i try with cost element (KSTAR), GL account (HKONT) is not updating this in PSEG screen in fb50.
If GL account (HKONT) updates either GL account (SAKNR) or cost element (KSTAR) at the time of posting FB50
Or
If we have the field GL account (HKONT) as source field in KEDR i hope my problem
Get solved.
If you want further info pls give me your mobile number then i ll call you

Two requirement type determined for PIR of a material

Hi Experts,
I have a scenario wherein for one of the material with stragety 50, when the PIR is getting transferred from one info structure to Demand Management (Version A0) i get two line items for the same demand in MD63. I.e one line item with requriement type VSE and another line item with requirement type VSFB. The transfer is through a custom program.
What could be the reason for this? Why two requirement types are determined for the material? What is the determining factor?
Thanks in advance for the response
Best Regards,
Ganesh

You mean that the two line items in MD63 belongs to the different version ; active and inactive one?
Several things you can check.
1 First check the MC7F whether configuration of your info structure is link to DM automatically (in Sync with Demand Management section). If you create the transfer again, it may have duplicate records in demand management.
2. Do you use the mass processing to transfer the data? If so, please check the activity. If you set the transfer twice, then it is duplicate.
3. Maybe someone maintained them manually and enter the requirement plan. Normally the transfer from SIS will have blank requirement plan. Maybe you can check whether the requirement plan is maintained for any of the lines (in the item tab).
If you can do the screen shot for us, it will be very helpful to analyze.
