Cost Collector for REM

Dear All,
can anybody explain me the total configuration for cost collector.
only i tell u which i have done yet.
i have made a rem profile and assigned it to a fert.
now please explain me what should i do to run Repetititve manufacturing.

Dear Shoaib,
1.The default order type for creating product cost collector for the REM related materials will be RM01.
2.For creating the product cost collector generally a production version or else (BOM and routing) is required.
3.Product cost collectors can be created using KKF6N and using the same T code pre.costing can also be made.
4.For a multiple list of materials the product cost collectors can be made using KKF6M.
5.Preliminary costing may be made using MF30.
For making prod.confirmation through MFBF,you need a product cost collector as this the cost collecting object in REM.
Now come back with your further queries.

How to maintain One product cost collector for multiple materials and configuration setting

Hi experts,
my requirement is that i want to maintain one product cost collector for multiple materials ans also i want to know the configuration setting for the same.
I have used KKF6N but it is not working in my case. I went through KKF6M also but there i found multiple cost collectors.
please guide me in the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shripad,
you cannot assign same Product cost collector to different material.
Because you creating cost collector for material combination of material /production version,material /Bom Routing.
so please create individual cost collector for every material.
if you have any query kindly revert back.
Please mark the answer as helpful if it is helpful to you.

Product cost collector for sales order related production

Hi Friends,
This is Azam and here i am new to this discussion forum.
we are in situation that use diffrent variant for configurable material in sales order related production,
I would like to have some information about use product cost collector for this kind of sales order related production,
also I want to know difference between prelimanary cost estimate or cost estimate for sales order?
Please co-operate me.
I would be highly appriciated if you can respond at the earliest.
Thanks
Azam

Hi,
Here, for each sales order item, you will have sales order cost estimate. This enables the system to compute the variances once the actual costs are booked against the production.
In the case of preliminery cost, we get the preliminery cost for production order as a plan cost and is not being used for the computation of variance but only for comparision purpose which is very marginally used.
Trust this helps much and do encourage our efforts!
Cheers!

Error while creating product cost collector in REM ?

HI, all SAP expert,
I have to run repetitive manufacturing .
I create work center of category production line and use in rate routing of semifinished material.
In mm02 -- mrp 4 view of semifinished material , i select rem profile , production version.
Now I create product cost collector ( t-code kkf6n) for semi. material by giving order type (yrem), production version after enter it shows error
Error in number management (notify your system administrator)
in help it shows

Dear Nitin,
Check whether is the number range maintained properly for the order type RM01,check the config setting in T Code
KOT2_PKOSA.
This is related to CO Module.
Check and revert back.

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.

Automatic product cost collector in REM

Hi,
Could someone please let me know if there exists any functional module / BAPI to create product cost collector auomatically in background ?
Many thanks
Regards
Seshu

Hi Satish,
Thanks for the response,
I have come across a functional module KK_F_PKOSA_CREATE which creates product cost collector.
Have you / someone in the forum come across this functional module ?
Also please let me know if we can schedule KKF6M in background for all REM materials and plants to create product cost collector ?
Look forward for the response
Thanks

Abolish product cost collector for production order

Dear Experts,
we use for some production order types the product cost collector. Now we plan to abolish them and change the settlement for production order. Which things do we have to pay attention? Do we have to finish our running production orders first or is it possible to change customizing during running production process. Thanks for your hepl!
Best regards
Steffen

Hi Ajay,
thank you for your answer.
We have tested two variants:
1. new order type, so we can process two separate settlements, for orders with PCC and the new orders without PCC. After archiving of all prodorders with pcc, archiving of pcc it should be possible to switch back to old order type.
2. change customizing without finishing existing orders, settlement for existing orders, all orders which already have been processed will be settled by pcc (status pcc usage in order header) We have not be seen any strange system behavior.
We use the pcc collector for different order types in different plants and want to abolish plant by plant. In this time the pcc will still be customized/exists.
Best regards
Steffen

Cost collector for claim

Hi Experts
I am unable to create cost collecter for claim (internal order CL01)
I have ensured maintenance of configuration with respect to cost integration.
I did not find the place where the internal order type CL01 and claim type are assigned.
Please suggest if i missed any specific setting.
warm regards

You must implement a BADI inorder to create a cost collector....you can read the relevant information here

REM Product cost collectors and Production version

Hi All,
Can some one pls let me know
What are the product cost collectors in REM and how to create the product cost collectors ?
What is the production version and the difference between production version and controlling version?
Thanks & Regards,
Bujji

Dear Bujji,
A product cost collector is a cost object in Product Cost by Period that collects the periodic actual costs incurred in the production of a material. It can be created in txn KKF6N.
[Product Cosr Collector|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
[Product Cost Collectors: Collective Entry for Repetitive Manufacturing |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
A production version determines the various production techniques that can be used to produce a material. It defines the following information:
Alternative BOM for a BOM explosion
Task list type, task list group, and group counter for assignment to task lists
Lot-size restrictions and period of validity
A material can have one or more production versions.
It can be defined in the Material Master (txn MM02) in one of the following views:
MRP 4
Work Scheduling
Costing 1
The costing version is a different issue. It is a costing parameter and is used to save several cost estimates for the same material, with the same costing variant and the same costing date (e.g. in oder to cost the material several times with minor changes without creating new costing variants).

Antje

REM profile Product Type - Cost Collector Order Type

Hi all,
I am trying to create a Repetitive Manufacturing Profile, at that time standard Production Type PKMN is automatically arriving from table V_T437S_GES.
and I would like to assign the cost collector order type (self defined) to the REM profile which I am going to create.
where I need to assign the cost collector order type for production type "PKMN" while creating REM profile.
If I copy the exisiting REM profile and I am able to get the cost collector order type that I am able to see in TABLE : T437S (Repetitive Manufacturing Profile Table). If I create the REM profile newly, I am unable to get the cost collector order type in the table T437S.
So please guide to the self defined cost collector order type for newly creating REM profile.
Thanks in Advance

Madhan,
Order type "PKMN", is internally defined by SAP. Forr all cost accounting purpose, we would be using standard order type "RM01" when creating a new product cost collector for material. If required you can create your own order type say "ZM02" using transaction KOT2, please remmember you need to create with order category "05"- Product Cost Collectors.
This new Order type can be used when we are creating product cost collectors for a material.
I really dont find a reason why a new Order type is required to be created. Can you explain why?

Prasobh

Mass transaction for maintaining cost collector

Hi experts,
Is there any mass transaction for maintaining Cost Collector.
Regards,
( Rajneesh Gulati )

HI,
You can maintain Product Cost Collector in mass maintanance in following transaction :
KKF6M Create Multiple Product Cost Collectors for Production Versions
Enter Plant, No of materials you want to create Product cost collectors enter in multiple selection , enter order type as RM01 which is default for REM and then execute so system will create Product Cost Collectors for all production versions.
Follow above procedure & revert in case any doubt.

Report for settled costs of product cost collectors

Friends,
Is there any report where i can see all the settled costs for cost collector for previous period. I can see individual costs through KKBC_PKO but i need one for all the cost collectors in one report.

Sridhar,
As always you got a answer. Thanks. i tried this before but missed running KKRV before this. Now this is good.

Essence of product cost collectors

In REM
what is essence of product cost collector (KKF6n), {As I understand production cost collectors
are cost carrying elements}, but needs to have more insights like how it captures
production costs ( i.e through activities, price maintained in accounting view....)
Does it make any difference if product cost collector is executed before MRP run, or it has
to be executed only after MRP run

Dear Eshwer,
1.Product Cost collector is one of the master data in REM scenario.
2.This product cost collector is no where related to MRP.
3.Product Cost collector is used as a cost object in REM scenario,which means all the cost will be
booked under this product cost collector for that material.
4.Whatever the confirmations that are done in MFBF or MF41 or MF42N,the cost will get debited or
credited accordingly for that material and the impact will be seen in the product cost collector.
5.This product cost collector will be having an order number which will be used for order settlement and
variance calculation.
6.For creating a product cost collector you will require a production version.
7.so whenever you do an assembly or activity or component backflush,the cost will be booked under
this product cost collector.
8.So as such there's no relation between MRP and a product cost collector.
I hope this pints will help you to some extent.
Revert back with your further queries.

Cost collector

Hi expert's
Give some tips the function of cost collector in PP

Dear Ja ck,
1.In case of discrete manufacturing ,the production order serves as the cost collecting object.
2.In case of REM - a product cost collector acts as a cost collecting object.
3.It's possible to use a product cost collector as a cost collecting object in the case of discrete
manufacturing if required.
4. You can decide whether the costs related to a production order are collected in the production order
or in a product cost collector.
You decide where the costs are to be collected by using the Cost Collector indicator in the order type-
dependent parameters in Customizing for Shop Floor Control, by choosing Master Data -> Order ->
Define Order Type-Dependent Parameters.
If the indicator is set, the costs are collected in a product cost collector. In this case, you execute a
periodic product costing. The preliminary, simultaneous and final costing occurs at product cost
collector level. In this case, you determine periodically the work in process and variances.
If the indicator is not set, the costs are collected directly in the production order. In this case, you
execute an order-related product costing. The preliminary, simultaneous and final costing occurs at
production order level. In this case, you usually determine work in process and variances with reference
to the lot.
More about product cost collector:
1.Product Cost collector is one of the master data in REM scenario.
2.Product Cost collector is used as a cost object in REM scenario,which means all the cost will be
booked under this product cost collector for that material.
3.Whatever the confirmations that are done in MFBF or MF41 or MF42N,the cost will get debited or
credited accordingly for that material and the impact will be seen in the product cost collector.
4.This product cost collector will be having an order number which will be used for order settlement and

5.For creating a product cost collector you will require a production version.
6.so whenever you do an assembly or activity or component backflush,the cost will be booked under
this product cost collector.

Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

Hi SAP Gurus,
How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
many thanks!

problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.
