COPA reporting using costing keys

Hi,
I am using costing keys to access the different cost estimates in COPA. I have done the necessary configuration - created valuation strategy and assigned a point of valuation and assigned two costying keys - one for current and one for future costs. I have also mapped my value fields to each cost component. I mapped the one value field twice (representing each costing key) to each cost component.
My question is, when it comes to reporting, how do I show the values seperately that correspond to each costing key? Since I have the same value field being valued with current and future cost estimates, how are these shown separately in the COPA report? Or do I have to use two different value fields per cost component?
Much Appreciated

Just read the SAP documentation which says that you need to enter different value fields for the different costing keys (up to six).
Thanks to those who attempted.

Is it possible to merge 10 BI reports using one key?

BI reports are based on Opportunity Id, and each report contains 5 different Ids, hence 1 single report will be splitted in 5 different reports based on Opty Id it has. Now for the same Opty Ids it does have different reports as well, so for 1 Opty Id if there will be 10 different reports, then all those reports should be merged in a single PDF.
In the "PDF Document Merger" section, no such functionality is mentioned to split the report based on a Key and then merges them. The requirement is to merge the reports in a single PDF File only, based on the Opty Id. As Customer has explained , they have 5 different reports, and 2 Opty Ids. So their final expected outcome is 2 reports by Opty Id, whereas each report will contain 5 different reports one below the other in a PDF file and print them.
Please advice how to proceed.

i would set up a report, or more if you have more levels of reporting.
have it take the parameters you are splitting and then merging on.
from jdeveloper, write a webservice app that will:
a create a recordset of the parameters you want to pass to the reports.
loop through the recordset and run each report.
put the output file names into an array (or an inputsteam array).
feed that array into pdfDocMerger.
you can optionally renumber and password protect as well.
then you create a script that runs the java program

Capturing COGS in COPA without VPRS and Costing Keys

Hi all,
We have 20 branches selling across india and corporate office is controlling all
the branches.
So when billing is done thru a particular branch, Corp. Off does not want branch people to view the cost of goods which is captured thru VPRS in condition screen of billing document. So VPRS has been removed from pricing procedure.
In the above scenario we can transfer COGS using costing key and transfer the standard cost to COPA.
But for the materials for which there is no standard cost (like trading goods) how the cost of traded goods will flow to COPA without using VPRS condition.
Please help me out.
Regards
Ramakrishna

Hi,
Good morning and greetings,
For trading goods, normally a purchase order should be prevailing for procuring the same and selling it to the customer with a markup...When you do the goods receipt using MT101, using a substitution rule you can transfer the cost to the profitability segment which is product hierarchy and you can capture the cost of the material without a VPRS pricing condition and a standard price in the material master.
Please reward points if found useful
Thanking you
With kindest regards

Costing Key & Component split in the COGS in COPA

I have done settings for accessing the Standard Cost Estimate using Costing Keys in Profitability Analysis. However, while going through the the Sales Invoices posted, I do not find that the components from the cost estimate is not appearing with any values as the split of the COGS. I dont know where I am going wrong ? Where I can check about any missing setting ?

Hi Nikkitha ,
If you have to have the COGS in COPA and have cost component split.. please ensure that following configurations are completed..
1. KE4U - Valuation Strategy 001 should be there .- (DETAILS Tab) assign 001 to Qty Field ABSMG and tick "Mat Cstng" indicator
2. KE4U - In (Assignment Tab) Please Assign 001 to PV=01 and Record Type = F
3. Create a Costing key in KE40
4. Assign Costing key to mat types in KE4J or KEPC
5. Assign Cost Comp Split to Value Field in KE4R....
Please ensure that in KE4R .. you have select correct cost component structure and populated the value fields where the costs will flow..........

What is meant by costing key?

Dear Experts ,
while releasing the billing document to accounts , i am getting error like
Valuation with material cost estimate: error, The system looked for the material cost estimate using costing key "002", as defined in the Customizing settings for CO-PA, incomplete due to FI/CO interface
what is meant by costing key?
regards
rajakarthik

Hi,
In Costing based Profitability analysis you define costing keys. A costing key is a set of access parameters which are used in valuation to determine which data in Product cost planning should be read. In the costing key you attach the costing variant.
In the costing key you specify whether the system should read the current standard cost estimate, the previous standard cost estimate or the future standard cost estimate or a saved cost estimate.
The configuration settings to determine this costing key is as follows:
Assign costing keys to the products u2013 Three costing keys can be attached to a single product for a specific point of valuation, record type, plan version.
Assign costing keys to Material types
Assign costing keys to any characteristics u2013 You can use your own strategy to determine the costing keys. This is through user defined assignment tables.

Table for KE30 COPA report

Hi,
I have written COPA Report using t.codes KE35 and KE32 for KE30 COPA report...some values are not pickup
Could u tel me KE30 Report ...reffering on which table of CE1 table or else ? so that i can try .
Thanks & Regards.
Vinu.

Hi Vinu
To reconcile your output of KE30 with actual posted values
1. Ensure that you have covered all posible record types in your report definition
2. Ensure you have covered all value fields and none has been missed out
3. Check if you have specified any char value which is filtering the output so that all values are not displayed in the output
Identify the value field where the values are not matching, say, Sales Revenue....
Now execute your KE30 reports and drill down by product or customer and compare side by side with KE24.. Check in which product or which customer is the issue.... Adopt this mechanism and you will possbly come to know of the true reason

Decimal Places is not showing in Qty field in COPA report

Hi,
I have made a COPA report using one form that I have made it through TC:KE34.
I have used ABSMG for Sales qty in my report.
What I am observing in report, the qty is not showing the decimal places for exmaple 6.032 MT but it gets round over to 6 MT.
I want the system should show the 3 decimal places for the Sales Qty.
How to do resolve this.
Regards
Kami

Hi Ajay,
No this is somthing new you mentioned. I havent tried to change the number format after executing the report.
Please let me know how to do that. I am using Object ALV to display the report and I am not getting any option in the menus to change the number format.
Also I noticed one thing, In other output format like drill down report its coming correctly , only in Object ALV output format its showing the rounded values.
Please let me know the path.

COPA cost estimate using costing sheet

Dear Experts,
I have done the relevant copa configuration related to Material cost estimate using costing sheet. I have maintained all the condition type required in the costing sheet.
Can anyone plese help me out with the Transction code which I should run to do the material cost estomate using costinbg sheet. And also how I can link the estimated material cost in my Profitability analysis report.
Thank you
Regards
Paul
Edited by: Paul01 on Dec 20, 2010 1:31 AM

Hi Paul
What is your purpose?
1. If you just want to fetch the material cost estimate (std cost) in COPA, then what you are doing is not correct...For this,
a. KE4U - Valuation Strategy 001 - (DETAILS Tab) assign 001 to Qty Field ABSMG and tick "Mat Cstng" indicator
b. KE4U - (Assignment Tab) Assign 001 to PV=01 and Record Type = F
c. Create a Costing key in KE40
d. Assign Costing key to mat types in KE4J or KEPC
e. Assign Cost Comp Split to Value Field in KE4R
2. Costing sheet in COPA is used for doing some calculations during billing and updating the same to COPA... For eg: you want to add 2% of your Std cost as Freight to COPA (Statistical value)... This can be done using Costing sheet...
In order to use Costing sheet in COPA,
a. Create a Costing sheet - (You already did this)
b. KE4U - Val Strategy 001 - (DETAILS Tab) Against Valuation Strategy 001 - Assign this costing sheet against "Application = KE" and Qty Field = ABSMG.. Do not check "Mat Cstng" against this indicator..
So, if you want to use Costing sheet in COPA, your KE4U may have 2 entries under the "DETAILS" tab..
(1) As per 1.a and 1.b above
(2) As per 2.b above

COPA Report- Cost Elements

Hi All,
We have done the required configuration for COPA. We have created a COPA (Costing Based) report as well. The client wants this COPA report to be run for the first quarter of 2008 i.e. April 2008 to June 2008.
However, discount values for the said period are not flowing to this report.
Verification reveals that, no cost element is created for "Discount Given" GL Account. Hence, only revenues, from billing document, are being posted to CO area. The same values are updated in COPA also.
As per my knowledge, unless Cost Elements are created values won't flow to CO and COPA.
Can anybody help me to overcome the problem. . . ?? i.e. How to get the values in COPA report for the said period . . .
Thanks in advance . . .
Regards,
Ravi Kumar

Hi
Your understanding is perfect we need a cost element for transfering the data to CO and COPA.For flow of values to COPA from SD we need to make the following config.
Create the GL account with cost element category 11 or12
Map the discount condition type to COPA value field.
Also it is very diffucult to identify the discount region wise customer wise etc.Since it is posted to one GL account.
To overcome come this issue I guess the only option is to cancel the billing documents,maintain the config and the again create the billing documents.As you said the volume of transactions are high you can consider using LSMW for cancelling and recreating the billing documents.

Maintenance Cost Key Figures in MCI3 and MCI8 Reports

we are using ECC6 EHP4 version. Maintenance Cost Key Figures in MCI3 and MCI8 Reports are not reflected the cost as given in different value categories in work orders. I have configrured the PMIS "Assign Value Categories to Maintenance Cost Key Figures" and Valuation Cateogies are also rightly configured. is it some bug or am I missing some thing. Please help

Thanks for your help.
I checked transaction code OMOS. all infor structure are on monthly update which is fair. however, I rebuilt the info structure through folllowing navigation path and it worked.
believe ur info structure S070-MCI7 is not getting update correctly , suggest u to run a statistical update via

Change in Key figures for COPA report

Hi
We have changed some formula using T.code KER1 for a element of Key figure scheme which is used in COPA report.
How do we find out which all COPA reports will get impacted by this change.
Regards,
Rams

that key figure mapping helps you to map the value fields to the std fields (the ones that are included in the std COPA content cubes.) So that you dont end up creating ur own Zfields in BI to correspond to the value fields. If you have a functional guy how can do the mapping or help u do it - go for it .... orelse you can always create ur own Z objects, so that you dont have to go back to source system to figure which IO refers to which value field.

Defination and use of key figure in copa

dear experts,
   i'm new to co-pa.
   can anyone explain to me the defination and use of key figure in copa??
many thanks
mu

Hi!
Generally you use key figure for defining calculated values for use as tracing factors for cost center assessment to COPA.
    You can use for this t.code KE2K as define calculated values as reference values.
For Ex.
Key Figure R1 contains below value fields through formula :
R1 = ERLOS + VV00 + VV01 + VV02
where ERLOS = Revenue
VV00 = Exports Revenue
VV01 = Domestic Discount
VV02 = Exports Discount
So, this key figure you can use as a base for tracing factors for cost cetner assessment to COPA.
Hope it will clear to you. Pls ask for any further query.
Thanks & Regards,
Taral Patel
