Cost component in cost estimate

Hi all,
In cost estimate with quantity structure, costs assigned to one of my cost components do not appear in the correct group.
This only happens for a group that should include semi-finished costs. The correspondance in the customizing is correctly made between the cost element and the cost component and when looking at itemization, the correct cost element is displayed but no cost component is shown.
I assume the problem may arise from the fact that my finish product use elements from other cost component, e.g. raw material, packaging,...
Would someone have any idea on this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Cost component split costed with value of zero

Hi,
We have ML activated for the Plant/ Valuation area.
We have Company Code Currency type -10 and Controlling Area Currency type - 30. Both Currencies are different.
I have maintained in OKYW, the company code and costing type and Valuation variant.
When I am running the cost estimate for the material and Plant I am getting the error..
"Cost component split costed with value of zero".
I have also checked that the cost element is assigned to Cost Component split and is active.
I am not able to find out what is the reason for the error. I am stuck up and not bale to run the cost estimate.
Please help/ suggestion.
regards
Kami

Dear Kami,
This error is probably caused by the currency conversion. Error CK 240 is raised if
a) cost component split in co-area currency is zero
b) the costing variant is used for standard price update
c) cost component split in co-area currency is stored on database
(this is a customizing setting of the costing variant)
There are 3 ways to proceed:
1) use a greater costing lot size for the raw materials with CK 240
--> costing value in CO area currency will be greater 0
2) disable saving of cost component split in co-area currency
3) deactivate coding of note 927372 --> please review note 1004727 for details.
Kind regards,
Antje

How to Maintaining Cost component under cost component structure?

Hi Gurus,
How to Maintaining Cost component under cost component structure?
I am using OKTZ trx for cost element and cost component maintaiance but when i am trying to maintain the cost element and corresponding cost comp , i am not able to find a cost comp on F4 help.
Plz let me know , ur guidance will be rewarded ..

Using command:
ASSIGN COMPONENT idx OF STRUCTURE struc TO <fs>.
For example:
DESCRIBE FIELD pi_output TYPE pi_output COMPONENTS lv_columns. "For number of columns
DO lv_columns TIMES.
ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF
STRUCTURE (name of structure) TO <l_fs_output>. "<l_fs_output> - field of structure
DESCRIBE FIELD <l_fs_output>... "with other options.
ENDDO.

Cost component or cost roll-up issue

Hi
This is with reference to new issue that surfaced in costing recently. In the company I am working for cost component structure setup is like this : 1) raw material is considered as variable cost 2) activity as fixed and when it rolls-up cost of semifinished will have both fixed and variable since fixed and variable are active for semifinished and that's way its set up for finished goods.
The above set up was designed based upon existing business process. As per that process raw material is always procured from external vendor. Recently for the one of the new plant the process changed a bit i.e. raw material is manufactured. Now the manufactured and purchased raw material flows to same GL account. With the existing set up the system allowed to create product estimate and PREM cost for both manufactured and purchased raw material. But recently the system started giving an error saying that fixed cost field is not activated for raw material. The error makes sense but we don't understand how it worked before and what triggered this error now.
Did anybody come across this issue?
Thanks
Joseph

Hi,
May be for the material in new plant, you may have some fixed cost , through some activity type etc.. Please check.
You can always change your cost component in OKTZ to allow for fixed cost also. But we careful while doing this , as after this you wont be able to see the pased saved data in cost component view. As based on cost component strcuture SAP alling the cost value field in KEPH table and it fixed and variable are stored in two different vaue field in KEPH.

Cost component structure - cost elements for FERT and HALB (TC:OKTZ)?

Hi all,
our cost component structure has the following structure (TC: OKTZ):
1 Raw materials
2 Human ressources
3 Production
4 Material Overhead
5 Production overhead
6 external activity
(this settings are conform with SAP standard - copy from cost comp. structure 01)
To cost comp 1 "raw material" we assigend the relevant (primary) cost elements (consumption raw mat, e,g, steel, wood...).
My question is: In case we insert/post e.g. a semi-finished product to the production order from stock (accor. bill of material), where (in which cost comp.) do I have to assign the relevant cost element? I guess this should be the account "inventory change unfinished product? (maintain in TC: OBYC for transaction BSV according val. class)
Is it correct to assign this cost element to cost comp structure "raw material", because actually it is a semi finished product which is picked up from stock to convert /process further? To problem is, if this cost element is not assigned I get an error in CK11N/CK40N
I hope my wording is not to abstract...
Thanks in advance...
best Regards

Hi..
You don’t need to consider the cost element of production order settlement and production notification.
Cost component structure need the cost element of production order’s debit.

Raw Material Cost Estimate - No split between cost component

Dears,
I need to execute a material cost estimate considering the Purchasing Info Record (PIR) where 3 different conditions are present:
1) PB00
2) FRB1
3) RUC1
The scope is:
- linking PB00 to cost component 1
- linking FRB1 to cost component 2
- linking RUC1 to cost component 3
Cost components are already created.
I did following steps:
- creation PIR with these 3 conditions (transaction ME11)
PB00 10,00 EUR @ 1 KG
FRB1 2,00 EUR @ 1 KG
RUC1 3,00 EUR @ 1 KG
- link condition types to origin groups (transaction OKYO)
FRB1 linked to FRB1
RUC1 linked to RUC1
- link origin groups to cost component (transaction OKTZ)
PB00, is linked to cost component 1 without origin group, but using only account coming from T030 table
FRB1 is linked to cost component 2 using origin group FRB1 and the same acocunt used for condition PB00 coming from T030 table
RUC1 is linked to cost component 3 using origin group RUC1 and the same acocunt used for condition PB00 coming from T030 table
At this moment, when I try to execute the cost estimate with transaction CK11N, the split is not done, and all condition types (all amounts) are linked to cost component 1. The set-up done in OKYO is not considered by the system.
In the material master there's any origin group, if I try to fill in origin group FRB1 all condition types (all amounts) are linked to component 2, and if I try to change the origin group in the material master from FRB1 to RUC1, all condition types (all amounts) are linked to component 3 --> this means that the set-up done OKTZ is correctly considered by the system to link the origin group to the cost components.
The problem is that the system reads the origin group from the material master, instead of transaction OKYO.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks and Regards,
Jody

Pl verify following two things -
Check valuation variant.
Strategy sequence should have 'L - Price from purchasing info-record' and Sub-strategy should be 'A Quotation price via condition table' or 'B PO price via condition table'.
OKYO setting should have valuation variant associated with your costing variant, along with other details (dont leave that field blank).
Let us know if that works.

Subodh

Material Ledger : Cost component split different in CO PC and ML

Hello SAP People,
In ML cost component split I don't have the same split that in CK13N COPC.
History
We changed the cost component structure in OKTZ, because we wanted to split on two different cost component the cost of Copper :
-     Copper
-     Primes :Premium cost (transformation cost for producer) on copper.
In CK11N the split is OK and we can read the new cost element corresponding to premium cost.
To split the costing tool goes on the purchase info records to read condition type that are different for copper and premium.
The problem we have is that when we run Material ledger we are not able to see after a good receipt a similar split in the cost component view.
We already run MLCCS_RESET and MLCCS_Startup programs this month and created new Raw material after. But it seems the ML do not take care of this and all the actual cost (I stop to single level) are on the copper cost component and there is nothing on Premium cost component.
We just run single level on ML for current month.
Could you please help me to explain why we are not able to obtain the correct split between Copper and u201CPrimesu201D

Hi Marco,
yes, these both are independent from each other. You will have no issue when these are different.
It is very typical that you want to report different kind of information for activities as for materials.
A typical setup might be
Activity                                   Material
Asset depreciation                   Raw Material Cost
Room cost                               Energy
Labour                                     Production Cost
labour overhead                      Production Overhead
Electricity                                 Packaging
When you use the activity for the production of a material (confirmation CO15) the assignment goes normally to a single cost component in the material, above for example into production cost. This is controlled by the cost element. Only when the primary cost component split is activated and a transfer structure betweeen both is maintained you could achieve
Asset depeciation, Room Cost, Labour overhead -> Production overhead
Labour -> Production Cost
Electricity -> Energy

Hi,
We are in developing phase for Product costing for coal mine project ,
we have raise coal material with Non component BOM , and Routing is only one activity with 400- Raised Coal Qty-MT ,
We upload the plan with Production cost center -activity type and cost element ( as per cost component -we have 10 cost component as per below )

Hi,
Here I am providing the necessity and importance of splitting structure, will share the configuration steps once you go through the following and get the comfort level.
                  Expense Analysis and Splitting in Manufacturing Cost Centers
Introduction In SAP Cost center work as a cost responsibility center, where all the expenses and cost are stored and analyzed for the purpose of management decision making.
The cost could be fixed or variable in nature. The difference between variable and fixed costs can be made in various ways in product costing in CO module.
Fixed costs represent the static costs incurred by the organization, which doesn’t change on the basis on manufacturing activities, which remain constant irrespective of production activities like rent for the premises, salaries of office staff etc.
On the other hand, variable cost varies based on the level of production activities; if production activities increase then variable cost also increased like electricity consumes raw material charges etc.
However all the variable cost doesn’t vary in direct proportion by quantity of goods produced.
In this document will try to define; how the Expenses analysis and splitting of cost done in manufacturing cost centers.
From controlling prospective, fixed cost remain constant regardless of operating activities, but if these factor changes, variable cost will fluctuate.
Basically raw material costs represent variable cost, but in this document main focused will be given to distinguish fixed and variable activity cost.
The segregation between fixed and variable cost is optional and is derived from the configuration and master data configured in cost center accounting and overhead accounting.
Activity Price:
There are different methods that could be used in cost center accounting to determine the activity price. The simple way is the manually enter “Fixed” and “Variable” Activity cost (KP26).
However there are other methods used in Cost center Planning and Budgeting that automatically calculate the fixed and variable activity price.
Here the focused will be given on Planning and Budgeting activity and automatic calculation of plan activity rate in cost center.
This method aggregate planned costs by cost element and capacity by plan unit to calculate the activity price.
Activity independent costs are segregated among different activities based on Splitting Structure, while activity dependent cost directly used for the purpose of variable activity rate calculation.
Fixed Activity Cost:
In product costing all those cost, which doesn’t vary based on the activities in manufacturing cost will represent fixed cost.
In a manufacturing cost centers there may be two or more activities performed.
To calculate the activities rate, the fixed costs are distributed to various activities on the basis of Splitting Structure defined for cost center.
Variable Activity Cost:
Variable activity cost, which directly depend upon the activity type and fluctuate based on increase or decrease in manufacturing activities. In SAP variable activity cost are directly linked to the respective activity.
Activity Prices: Fixed and Variable Split
In Cost Center Accounting dividing the cost between Fixed and Variable requires appropriate split to be made in the cost entered for the activity. The process is described below:
i. Variable cost would be planned at activity level and expenses should be maintained at cost element in the manufacturing cost center by assigning activity and cost element combination.
In other word, the expenses should be planned on Activity type at the time of primary cost planning (KP06).
Then the variable activity rates are calculated on Total cost planned at Activity divided by Total number of activity planned at that cost center (i.e. capacity in KP26)
ii. Fixed cost would be planned at independent of activity type. These costs are maintained in KP06 at cost element level on manufacturing cost center.
Then the fixed costs are distributed on various activity types on the basis of Splitting structure defined at OKEW.
In Splitting Structure we define the rules, how the fixed cost will be distributed to Activities. For the purpose of this document, considering split of fixed cost on the basis of Capacity maintained in KP26.

Display Dept. amount in Std cost estimate cost component view

Dears,
During implementation of Repetitive manufacturing, my customer Requirement is to have 4 activity types:
1- Utilities : (Elect-water-GAS ... Etc)
2- Labor : (salary - bonus ..Etc)
3- Depreciation : (Depreciation exp)
4- other : like (maintenance .. Etc)
he wants that so he can know this classification of the above costs liek depreciation per material in the standard cost estimate so my question is:
Is it applicable to display the above requirement and using only 2 activity types
Labour and machine
and use the cost component structure to display the above req ?
as an example:
in CK11N : if i switch to cost component view to display the depreciation amount and Etc
Thanks and best Regards,
Ahmed Samir

Salaam Ahmad
You have both choices.
You can go with 4 act types or go with 2 and use costing sheet for the other costs
I will prefer 4 act types

CO-PA Cost Component do not match with Standard Cost Component Values

Dear Members,
The CO-PA Cost Components (as mapped through KE4R), do not match with Standard Cost Component values for the Group Currency. In local currency the values match.
System is correctly picking up VPRS value, both in local currency and Group Currency, which is equal to the total of Standard Cost Components however, it is the Value Fields linked to the Standard Cost Components in Group Currency that do not match.
In KE40, the Indicator is 4:Released Standard Cost Estimate matching Goods issue Date.
I have verified KEPH/CKMLPKEPH tables. The values are same as that of VPRS.
Any help/clues?
Regards
Satya

Hi,
In case of billing documents the group valuation approach is managed in the data structures of the legal valuation in additional value fields. To control costs and revenues in the different views separately, you must create additional value fields and assign them to the data structures.
The field contents must be filled via the CO-PA user exit, they cannot be entered by assigning conditions to value fields. The profit center valuation is updated in a separate ledger. No separate value fields are necessary.
The exit to be used is function module 'EXIT_SAPLKEII_002' ( enhancement COPA0005 ). Within the exit you have the complete SD data avaialble in the tables 'T_ACCIT' and 'T_ACCCR'. The conditions can be found in T_ACCIT and the corresponding values ( linked via 'POSNR' ) in table T_ACCCR. The PA line item and the corresponding SD item in table ACCIT
can be mapped via the line item field 'RPOSN' and the field 'POSNR_SD' in table ACCIT.

Standard Report for Materials Cost Component Structure - PO Condition Type

Dear experts,
We are using below cost component structure (CCS) for materials:
- Direct materials
- import duty
- import handling
In which, all those above CCS are achieved through below condition type in Purchasing Info Record. When doing the standard cost estimate through costing run, we have successfully grouped all those condition types into their respective CCS. The problem is, while executing the standard report of "result of costing run" (S_ALR_87099930), the sytem groups all those three CCS into CCS "Direct materials" only.
I have tried different standard layouts, but still got no way to show all those CCS separately in the standard report.
Please kindly suggest what approach should i take
Thank you very much
BR, Erwin

Hi
Check cost elements assigned to structure. For this go to transaction code OKTZ and select your CCS and double click on Assignment Cost Component-Cost element interval.

Report painter/writer for actual cost component split

Hello Gurus,
Any of you guys ever explored possibility of creating a report using report painter or writer that can give both Standard and Actual cost component splits in one report? Is it even possible without custom ABAP involvement?
Thanks
RG

Hi Raghu,
After your reply, I am getting a doubt..
Have you Activated Material Ledger? When you say Actual Cost Component Split, are you talking about it what you get in Actual Costing/Material Ledger?
If yes, then you can map your cost compnents for Actual Costing in the path SPROControllingProfitability AnalysisMaster Data Valuation--Setup Valuation using Material Cost Estimate -- Define Access to Actual Costing / Material Ledger
Further, there are no standard reports available in COPA. Try to build a report comprising two columns, 1st column with the value fields which are mapped for Standard Cost Components and 2nd column with the Value Fields which you have assined for Actual Costing under the above path.
You will be able to get the comparison...
Pls don't hesitate to call me for further assistance....

Primary cost component split not happening

Hello Experts,
I am trying to create a Primary cost component split for Products with following settings
1. Creation of Primary cost component structure "1N" and marking it as Primary cost component
2. Assigning the Primary cost elements to the Cost component structure
3. Assigning the Primary cost component structure for the Company code and Plant
4. Assigning the Primary cost component structure to "Version" under "Price calculation" tab.
5. Activity type with Activity type category "1- Manual entry, Manual allocation" and Price Indicator "1 - Plan price, automatically based on activity"
6. Activity output planning for Cost center
7. Primary cost planning for the Cost centers
8. Activity price calculation. (Update run) - Prices are changed in KP26 also
9. After all the above steps I checked report S_ALR_87013644, Plan price is existing in the report as mentioned in SAP note: 1658589
After all the above steps, I tried running Cost estimate for a product. I am getting the error message
Cost element 90001 is not assigned to a cost component
Message no. CK239
Also, I am getting a message
No structure could be determined for internal activity TEB (M0001)
Message no. CK694
Therefore the Cost component is showing only the Material component.
Where "90001" is a secondary cost element. I am not sure why system is still searching for Secondary cost element where we have assigned Primary cost component structure. I also ensured that Primary cost elements used in planning are all assigned to a Component in Cost component structure.
I checked for SAP note "1736332", which is not applicable for my system version. Current version of SAP_APPL is Release 606 and Support package SAPKH60607.
Please help. Am I missing any settings.
Thank you in advance.
Muneer Ahamed N

Hi Muneer,
Please check whether you have maintained cost center splitting structure properly and assigned to the respective cost center for which you have maintained output planning and input planning.
This splitting structure is much required because there only we maintain the relationship between primary cost elements and activities.
Coming to your first message, yes system expects maintenance of secondary cost elements also in the cost component structure which is not primary CCS.
Inorder to show primary cost component structure view:
First, system calculates the direct activity cost in terms of secondary cost elements...
Next, it verifies the cost center splitting structure you made,
Then, system is going to convert the direct activity cost in terms of primary cost elements based on the splitting structure and Finally displays the primary cost component view
I suppose second message speaking about cost center splitting structure only, please go through it carefully
Other than these whatever the process you specified is right only..
Regards...

Copy standard cost with Cost Component from another material

Hi,
I need to copy standard cost from another material not only total price but also details of cost component split. I try to used transaction CKUC with procedure of "explode material cost estimate" but the reference material use "mixed costing" and isystem stop explosion.
There is another procedure in order to make this copy? I can not use special procurement because are different codes (material A / Plant XXX copy froma material B /Plant XXX).
Thanks for your support.
Mic

Hi Chandra,
thanks for your suggestion, it works but only if I explode a level ... material "B" contains two mix codes that also contain their mixes. So system shows this message "Mixed cost estimate explosion in level 2 for material xxx" and "Mixed cost estimate exists: maximum of 2 explosion level (s) possible".
So Is not possible to copy and esploded a standard cost with multi level mix?
Thanks

Itemization does not match cost component split

Hi,
I need your help or could you please shed some light as to how to fix .
A new Overhead was created, in order to add expenses to the pricing of the product. For it a variant of different pricing to which is used currently was created, and so for maintain a historic one of the information.
In addition, in the cost component Structure an adjustment of the configuration was carried out, this was done because the previous the cost component Structure contained 18 elements of costs, which the most of the elements were specified as fixed and variable costs, therefore the system only permitted the addition of 2 more elements (SAP only permits 20 elements of fixed and variable costs), nevertheless was necessary to create a total of 23 elements of costs. For it the previous elements have to be modified and to change some elements as variable costs, specifically the elements corresponding to the accounts of materials. using tcode OKTZ
The addition of 5 more elements of costs, corresponding to overhead elements, where the type 41 costs classes were configured from the plan of surcharge created.
After carrying out the changes and to transport them the client of production, when i execute the T-code ck13n an inconsistency in the previous pricings was generated, because the cost component Structure was modified and the the following one Nº message was showed: CK869 " Mat.XXX in plant XXX: itemization does not match cost component split, the report of itemization shows different values to the reports of Costed Mutilevel BOM and of Cost Components. Additionally to the error shown by the system, also is observed that to the Cost Components report a cost in the new elements of overhead was added, even when the calculation of previous cost did not contain the determination of overhead.
In order to fix the error, I modified the cost component structure as it was before and the created another cost component structure with the required changes requested by the client specifying that it should start to be current this year. However after that change the error message nºCK869 continue: Mat. XXX in plant XXX: itemization does not match cost component split. Adding to that error message, the cost of the finished product changes with reference to the calculus of the previous product after modified the configuration and that is because the cost of the semifinished product is not being taken the values of the row material, and it is appearing with cost 0 and the only value that is taking on the matter are the costs of the activities types.

If you want the message to go away then you need to mark and releasse the estimate. However, there is no requirement that you do this. The message you are getting is an informational message only. You can continue without re-costing the item. If you do re-cost the material the new cost estimate will reflect and changes you've made to the components, so there is a good chance you will get a different value with the new estimate. So if that's ok, go ahead and mark and release the new estimate.
