Cost-apportionment structure using co-products

Hello
We want to use co-products in our production process.
Im not sure how to define the cost-apportionment structure in the header material. I need to define 95% - 5% apportionment structure for two co-products in a Production order
I mark flag "co-products" in the principal material, then press boton "joint production"
I enter the following data:
Number 001 - Descripcion -Source structure (Z1)   (Source structure has Source Tye U (?))
then I press boton "equivalence numbers" and in the dailogbox which appears, I put the two products-codes with their ratio
Material: 1411131  - 95
Material: 1401212 -  5
I expect this ratio to be used upon settlement of the "deltas" in the production order upon month closing.
Im not sure I have to use the field "Assignment"
Thanks for any input

Hi Art ,
I think what-ever you have mentioned is correct ..
Please ensure that you have also defined CO-Product in your BOM and its set up correctly..
Now carry out your standard and actual costing process and revert back if you face any diffulties..

  • Apportionment Structure in Co product.

    Hi PP Gurus,
    What is a significance of Apportionment Structure in Co product?
    How does it affect co product as well as main product?
    PLease give inputs in detail.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    PRADEEP

    Dear Pradeep,
    Apportionment Structure
    Definition
    Determines how the total cost for a material is apportioned to the individual co-products
    For a primary product or process material, the apportionment structure lists the co-products to which costs are to be distributed
    Assigns equivalence numbers to those co-products
    Use
    The apportionment structure can be used to cost co-products in Product Cost Planning and to distribute actual costs (  Preliminary Settlement for Co-Products) in Cost Object Controlling.
    The cost of the primary product or process material is distributed to the co-products on the basis of equivalence numbers. You can also specify the source assignments of a source structure in the apportionment structure.
    Structure
    An apportionment structure consists of the following:
    A key identifying the apportionment structure
    A text describing the apportionment structure
    A list of co-products to which the total costs are distributed
    Integration
    You can maintain the apportionment structure in the following places:
    In the material master record in the MRP view or Costing view
    If you are using the component Production Planning for the Process Industries (PP-PI), the information in the material master record in the apportionment structure is transferred into the material list and from there into the manufacturing order.
    Directly in the header of the manufacturing order
    If you specify the apportionment structure directly in the manufacturing order, you cannot use a source structure.
    When you create a manufacturing order in Cost Object Controlling, the system generates a settlement rule on the basis of the apportionment structure. You can see this settlement rule in the manufacturing order. The equivalences specified in the apportionment structure are transferred into the settlement rule.
    You can also specify an apportionment structure in the production version.
    Source Structure  
    Use
    A source structure can be used to group total costs by source assignment. If you do not use a source structure, the costs must be apportioned equally to all cost elements. Source structures therefore enable you to define distribution rules that only refer to specific cost elements.
    Prerequisites
    You define a source structure in Customizing for Product Cost Planning under Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure ® Costing in Joint Production ® Define Source Structure. You assign a source assignment to each cost element group for which you want to apportion the cost separately.
    You specify the source assignment in the material master record of the primary product or process material in the MRP view in the apportionment structure.
    When you create a source structure, make sure that each debit cost element is assigned to a source assignment. If you are using a cost object hierarchy, the cost elements distributed to the manufacturing orders assigned to the lowest node in the cost object hierarchy must also be included.

  • Error in product costing cost component structure with quantity...

    Dear sap gurus
    I am creating material cost estimation with quantity structure while doing in T CODE CK11N the following error is coming Message no. 213 Cost component structure z9 is not active. But I am not using the particular Cost component structure z9. I am using the standard Cost component structure 01 and I have activated it at OKTZ and the z9 is deactivated. Plz, tell me where I can fix this error
    Awaiting for you kind reply.

  • Use of Product cost collector in REM

    Hi All,
    I am new to PP module, I got some doubts when working on costing of the product.
    1. In REM scenario why do we need an extra step of creating product cost collector ??
    2. when a product is produced will the prod cost collector is used for both debiting(raw and semi) and crediting(finished prod) ?

    Dear Reddy,
    1.Product cost collector is the cost collecting object for a period based production or in a REM - repetitive manufacturing
    scenario.
    2.Without having any product cost collector you cannot carryout production confirmation(assembly backflush) for a product.
    3.So for all the products for which production confirmation will be declared requires a individual product cost collector.
    4.Prior to this you require a production version for the material.
    5.Production version and a product cost collector is also the master data for a REM scenario.
    Now check and revert back.

  • By-product in cost componet structure

    hi
    how i can add by-product in cost component structure. which account will be assign profit & loss or balance sheet.
    imdad

    Hello Imdad,
    You should maintain the GL account that is credited when a By Product is generated. This is the the GL that is defined in GBB / AUF. You should review your settings. If you have mentioned only one account without reference to a valuation class in GBB / AUF and if that is already maintained in OKTZ  then no need to maintain further. If you want to classify by valuation class then you should create a valuation class for By - Product and have a account called 'Cost of Goods Manufactured - By Products' or 'Factory Output of Production - By Products' and assign the same in GBB / AUF in OBYC and create a new line in cost component structure (OKTZ) and assign it there as well.

  • Can sap ps be used for product development  for cost monitoring?

    sap-pp is configured but client insisting for product development they want sap-ps ,can sap ps be used for product development  for cost monitoring in textile industry?and how to configure with reference to sap-pp?
    venkatdas vanga

    Hi,
    SAP PS has good Integration with PP and FI CO modules. So goes well along the ETO scenario.
    The normal process is that Project is created and goes in to design phase , where we design product as per customer's requirement . Design BOM helps in this.Once you design is ready you can generate Production Orders base on MRP generated with reference to Projects.
    All the cost including overheads are charged to the Project as actual cost.
    These costs are later settled to Cost Center.

  • Use of cost component structure

    hello gurus
    what is use of cost component structure and what is the difference between cost sheet and cost component structure .after preparation of cost sheet we going to assign the costing varient like that after preparing the cost component structure where we assign this
    thanks
    prudhvi

    Hi!
    cost component structure is to split your total costs to material ( direct & inditiect), labour cost, over head costs in order to identify seperate costs for analysis purpose. transaction code is :OKTZ.
    first you have to define cost component attributes , then assign cost elements for each attributes and then assign this structure to your company code.
    while executing the standard cost estimate of materials,  total cost will be displayed by splitting the costs according to cost component structure.

  • Target cost is zero in Co-Product

    Leading Co-Product (main Finished Product) : A
    Other Co-Products : B & C
    Maintained the Apportionment Structure and  the apportionment rule  of the three materials is 45,30,25.
    I have done  the standard cost estimate before create product order,It was successful.
    Then I issued goods and recipted goods for product order.
    When I check the costing of the order, I don't find target costs,only actual costs.Why?

    You will  see it after doing GR for Production order.

    this is correction to earlier response.I didn't read carefully,that you aleady done confirmation.
    Please clarify,do you use fixed price to valuate CO product? and Have you seen results after calculating variances for order?
    Confirm back.

  • Apportionment Structure

    Hi,
           I am using Apportionment Structure concepts for Main/Co product concepts.Here I assigned eq. number for main and coprod . per activity , ROH wise and OH wise.But particular ROH is only used for Co-prod only.I dont want it apportion it to main product. How to do it??

    You could use a separate cost element group and then use a separate source structure with 0 for the main product and 1 for the co-product.

  • Cost component structure in CO-OM Reporting

    Hi there,
    we want to run cost center reports, that show us the balance on a cost center per primary cost element, after we have allocated some of the costs from the cost center into production orders.
    I thought this can be achieved by having the tariffs we use for the internal activity allocation been broken into their cost component structure so that on the cost center, the respective primary cost elements are debited by the activity allocation.
    However, this is not happening in my system. While the activity tariffs are correctly calculated with a component split (according the 1SKS-001 report), the standard cost center report still shows the debit on the cost center with the secondary cost element of the activity.
    Does this mean I cannot see the component split of my activities in normal OM reporting?
    Thanks

  • Cost Component Splitting in Joint Production

    Hello.
    I meet a trouble in the cost component splitting for the co-product.
    I tried to creat a BOM like :
                                 A                       B
                                  C (CCS1)           D(CCS2)
    the raw material C&D are in different cost component,and the manufacturing matertials are A&B.
    and I set the apportionment structure like A(CCS1 100%,CCS2 50%)   B(CCS1 0%, CCS2 50%)
    Then i run the CK11N,and the result is correct.
    But the problem is as following:
    when I creat a BOM like :
                                 A                       B
                                              E
                                  C (CCS1)          D(CCS2)
    the raw material C&D are in different cost component,and the semi-product matertial is E,then E is producted for finished product A&B.
    and I set the apportionment structure like A(CCS1 100%,CCS2 50%)   B(CCS1 0%, CCS2 50%)
    then i run the CK11N,and the result is wrong.
    whatever i set the apportionment structure,the result of the CCS is  A (CCS1 50%,CCS2 50%),B(CCS1 50%,CCS2 50%)
    anybody can tell me how i can get the correct result?

  • Activity Price in Cost Component Structure

    Hi,
    After costing run I have updated Activity Price in KP26.. I want to see latest activity price in Cost component structure e.g. Labour Activity and Machine Activity..cost for this a)  Is it require re-costing run? b) how can we calculate activity price? e.g. total base qty/confirmed qty *no.of hrs.  can you please corret me my formula I have maintain in KP26 capcity 500 and fixed price 10. I am able to see machine hrs. 6 in Resource data..
    Thanks
    Srinu

    Hi Srinu,
    Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
    Use  S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).

  • Can we do poduct costing with out using cost sheet  and overhead rates

    Hi,
    can we do product costing with out using cost sheets and overhead rates.
    In that cast , how the cost estimation happens ?

    Hi,
    a costing sheet is used to calculate (on a base) overhead values. If you dont need / want to use this functionality just create/use a costing variant where not costing sheet is assigned.
    Use this costing variant in CK11N or KKPAN, depending if ou have a quantity structure or not.

  • Differance betwen Variable & Fixed and Variable in Cost Component Structure

    Dear All,
    What is the difference between the Variable and Fixed and Variable for the cost component for the Cost Component Structure.
    why we have to take Raw Material Cost Componennt always Variable.  Is any help?
    Regards

    fixed cost is irrespective the level of production the cost remains same. or upto certain level of production the cost the cost will ramain same and after the cost may increase.
    example: rent of the factory building or office buildings remains same irrespective of the operations level.
    variable is with every change in the level of production the cost change.
    example: raw material used in manufacturing finished product. The more finished products the more is the consumption of raw material.

  • Difference between cost component structure and cost component split

    can anyone explain me the difference between cost component structure and cost component split with simple example
    thanks
    santosh

    Hi ,
    cost component structure
    Definition
    Number that identifies the structure.
    Use
    In Product Cost Controlling, the cost component structure determines how the results of material costing are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each material according to cost component (such as material costs, internal activities, external activities, and overhead). If the material is used in the production of another material, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material costs, internal activities, external activities, overhead, and so forth) remains in the system when the costs are rolled up.
    In the cost component split, you also define the following for material costing:
    Which part of the costs are fixed costs
    Which costs are
    cost of goods manufactured and what are sales and administration costs
    Which costs are relevant for stock valuation, commercial inventory valuation and tax inventory valuation
    When the cost component structure is assigned to the organizational units, you can specify that two cost component splits are created:
    Main cost component split
    This is the principal cost component split, meaning that it is used in the standard cost estimate, which can be used to update the material master. The main cost component split can be a cost component split for cost of goods manufactured or a primary cost component split.
    Auxiliary cost component split
    This can exist in addition to the main cost component split, and is not used in the standard cost estimate. It can be used for analysis purposes, in that it can be displayed with the cost estimate and passed on to Profitability Analysis.
    In Cost Center Accounting, the cost component structure determines how the results of the activity price calculation are updated. The cost component structure groups the costs for each activity type of the cost center according to components (such as material costs and labor costs). If an internal activity allocation is carried out, the cost component split (which breaks down the costs according to material, labor costs, and so forth) is retained at cost rollup.
    If the cost component split is not to be retained, you can create a switching structure for the cost component structure for Cost Center Accounting. In the switching structure, you specify which sender cost component goes into which receiver cost component.
    <b>require a cost component structure to calculate prices using cost component split.</b>
    For each cost component structure you define a component such as energy, personnel, or raw materials. The components combine all costs occuring for a particular cost element area. In this way, you ensure greater cost transparency in activity price calculation when putting together the activity type prices - for example, it becomes easier to find how much of the activity price is taken up by the material costs.
    In activity allocation, the cost component structure remains constant, meaning that the receiver takes on the sender cost elements and that the allocated costs are posted in the same cost components in the receiver as in the sender.
    A cost component structure can have a maximum of 40 defined cost components.
    Cost components are assigned to cost elements. You thereby determine which cost elements go to which rows in the structure, and how these components are updated in price calculation.
    Hope ths helps
    Please rewad points
