Cost Centers for Work Orders

HI Guru's,
I have an issue with work orders for our maintenance team. The orders are being settled to the incorrect cost center. I believe this is happening because they have not been set up correctly. Please can you tell me if there a way to transfer these into the correct cost center? and how can I change the set up on these work orders?
Please can you help.
Best Regards,
Yasmeen

It sounds like you need to change the settlement rule on the work orders so they settle to the correct cost center. Go to IW32 -> Goto->Settlement rule
To move previous postings, you can do an CO only reposting using transaction KB11 to move CO postings to the correct cost object.
Good luck!

Cost Centers for Work Centers

Dear All,
In our senario we have defined 30 Work Centers required. here the Activity are only for 2 (labour, Mechaine Hr). In KP26 we have to maintain the Standard Price. How can we build a logic in this. Can we create 30 Cost Centers. Y becoz each end eavery work center have the different price for Labour. for EX;
WC1 - 150 Labour Cost
WC2 - 180 Labour Cost
WC3 - 190 Labour Cost
Like this we have to calculate. I hope it is required to create 30 Cost Center to assaign wot Wrok Centers. Here we are going to KP06. We have a standrd pirce to calculate.
Regards

Dear Raj,
IF the business is interested in capturing using different cost centers means then you can create individual cost center and
assign it to the work center and define the rates in KP26.So only one activity type will be there but different cost center.
The otherway is creating multiple activity types say LABH1,LABH2....and creating different rates for the activity type ans same
cost center combination in KP26.But here the challenge is you have to assign the activity types properly under costing tab
against the formulas.
Check and revert back with your queries.

Actual costs posted to work order without maintaining costing variant

hi,
i havent maintained costing variant for work order(maintenance order) type i used to create the work order. so when i posted goods issue, how does the actual costs get posted with out maintaining the costing variant for work order type. what is the role of costing variant configuration in work order type settings.
thanks,
monica

Hi monica,
Costing variant forms the link between the application and Customizing, since all cost estimates are carried out and saved with reference to a costing variant. The costing variant contains all the control parameters for costing.
The configuration parameters are maintained for costing type, valuation variants, date control, and quantity structure control.In costing type we specify which field in the material master must the price be updated,
In valuation variant we specify in what order the system should go about accessing prices for the material master planned price, standard price, moving average price etc. Further which is the price which should be considered for activity price. How the system should select BOM and routing.
assign points if useful

Error reading material cost estimate for sales order (KE292)

Dear All,
I have an issue with billing. we are posting july month transactions, the material cost is maintained through MR21. When releasing billing document for accounting we are getting error message like"Error reading the material cost estimate for sales order "11"
Message no. KE292
Diagnosis
In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), the system tried to valuate item 000010 of sales order 11 by reading the corresponding product cost estimate.
However, no product cost estimate could be found for this sales order item.
The system accessed product costing for product AMLFP011011XX00P using costing key YB3 as defined in the
CO-PA Customizing settings.
System Response
The system cannot process the document any further.
Procedure
Check your Customizing settings."
We cross checked with other client as a current date and we ran cost estimate through CK40N with same material. and we posted entries. Here it is working fine. but in above process it is not working. Can you pls guide me where i missed.
Regards,
Nagaraju,

Hi,
When the Costing Key is assigned to the material types in the COPA customizing, then system expects Cost estimation when billing is released to Accounts.
If you dont run cost estimation but update the material master through MR21, system will not accept as in the Costing key configuration you must have selected the Current Standard price field for the valuation.
Hence, try to run cost estimation and then do releasing.
Thanks & Regards

Cost centers for reveneue

Hi,
can we use cost centers for revenues and cost both?
Thanks!

Hello,
In general, Cost Centers are not meant for revenue posting. They are meant for expenses. However, you can allow them by your cost center category. But, this is not industry best practice.
Cost center, WBS element and Internal Orders are real CO objects, where the real postings will flow.
Profit Center is always statistical only (statistical means just for information postings) - These postings are like shadow postings.
When you give two real CO object for posting like Cost Center and Internal Order (Real), then real postings will go to Internal Order (Real) and statistical postings will flow to Cost Center and the profit center assigned to Internal Order. Cost center will modify itself to a real or statistical based on the other CO object given.
Hope this is clear.
Regards,
Ravi

Automatic settlement for work orders.....Plant Maintenance....

Hello everyone,
In plant maintenance, does anyone know how to setup automatic settlement rule assignment for work orders? We know how to do it for internal orders already but the concept doesn't work for work orders. We are on release 4.6C
Thanks,
Chris

hi
while maintaining the settlement profile you can define the default oject categors as CTR and in the equipment master you have to specify the cost center, and if you create maintenance order then settlement rule will be automatically created
if you want some specific cost center as default irrespectiv of equipment then you have to use the customer exit
IWO10027 User exit: Generate user-defined settlement rule

Different Cost Centers for Different Line Items in a single Reservation

Hello Gurus,
When we create a Material Reservation, we give the cost center at the header level and that cost center is accounted for each of the line items in the reservation. But when the reservation has many line items which depend on different cost centers, there is a need to enter different cost centers for different line items in the same Material Reservation. How can this be done? Please suggest.

Hi,
It's a standard restriction in SAP functionality where one reservation document can only accommodate one cost center.
You can not maintain multiple cost centres for individual line items.
You have to create seperate Reservations for each cost centre.

Ankit

Hi There, I have a simillar problem as above, however I would like a list of all G/L Accounts with profit centres and cost centres as well. Is this possible? Reason being that I have many unassigned cost centres and need to link them to profit centres.
Is there also a mass processing list to see which G/L accounts dont have primary elements assigned?
