Cost Components for W I P

HI All,
What are the cost components for the WIP process.
I understand this is been defined in the Overhead key for the Materials in the Production order.
I would like to know the Cost components which are added as the factors of production in the WIP Process.
I can see the cost components in the Costing sheet as a calculation procedure.
Is there any separate transaction code/node/report which gives me the components for the overhead calculation.
Ex: for material X
overhead costs may be:
Admin Oh
Sell OH
Labour OH etc.,
This is required for the auditing purpose as certain overheads like Sell and Admin OH are not be added as the Cost of production in WIP as per accounting standards.
So we need to show exactly what components are adding to the production cost.
I understand From OKTZ- Define Cost component structure will help me.
But, I want the Cost Components for W I P (Work-in -progress)
Pls help me in this regard,
Thanks and regards,
S Sq

In SAP R/3, W I P is a calculation function (t.code KKAO).
The WIP calculation function valuates the unfinished products (work in process).
Work in process is the difference between the debit and credit of an order that has not been fully delivered.
In the Product Cost by Order component, the work in process is valuated at actual cost.
By the way, are you talking about creating/ defining cost elements for WIP calculation in SPRO settings. You can use t.codes KA06 for create / KA02 for change / KA03 for display.

Inter company COGS and Cost Components in COPA

Looked at so many threads but couldn't find a proper answer.
Scenario: Company B in Canada books a sales order, delivering from a Plant in Company A in US. US bills Canada at Cost + Mark up.
In US:
On Goods issue COGS is booked based on std in US (say $10)
On Inter company billing - (Cost + 20% mark up) Inter company receivable is $12, this triggers a payable on Canada side.
In Canada:
We can have $12 booked as COGS when Payable entry is created in Canada through IDOC. so Accounting is OK.
How can I have this COGS of $12 posted in COPA ? Somewhere I read to use two condition types for VPRS, but unfortunately we cant do that as we have revenue recognition activated. only VPRS condition values comes through revenue recognition lines.
Since Delivering plant in US has a Standard cost of $10, VPRS is $10 in sales order and COPA gets the cost components from US plant, which is not correct. How can I have the mark up of $2 reflected in Cost components in COPA ?.
Assuming that I create a standard Cost estimate in a virtual Plant in Canada for $12 with two cost components for $10 and $2. Is it possible to manipulate VPRS on sales order to point to standard cost from this virtual plant and create a costing key to bring the cost split from this virtual plant into COPA. Has anybody tried this ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Krishna
1. Does this material always necessitates a supply from US company??
If yes, then your task is easy.. Create a Costing Key and assign to such materials in KE4H... In this Costing Key, do not tick the radio button "Use Line Item Plant as Cost estimate Plant".... Instead, You can specify the default PLANT to be used for reading the Cost Estimates in the field "Specify Cost estimate PLant"
You can use the above solution in case you go with Virtual Plant also
2. Are you saying that the VPRS in Sales order punched in Canadian comp code is 10 USD because the Delivery Plant is in US comp code?
I dont know how does Revenue recog behave in your case and when does VPRS (COGS) flow to COPA.... As you said, VPRS gets the feed from RR, so will manually manipulating the VPRS in sales order help you??
Anyways, the 2nd solution is as below... Few companies have used it
There is an output type in SD called RD04... I may not be fully right here, you can take it as RD0*... Ask your SD guy to identify the right output type
Using this, When you do the PGI in Canadian Comp code,
................. All this happens in background automatically...............
you can create a Virtual STO on USA Comp code....
USA does PGI and the stock virtually comes in Canadian Comp code
Then PGI happens from Canadian Comp code
................. All this happens in background automatically...............
This is a change in your process... The delivery plant for all practical purposes becomes Canadian Plant (only on paper)... Your Physical process can continnue as Delivery from USA...
This solution was adopted when both the companies were in same country.... Check with your business how far is it possibie for you
3. Last option would be to use valuation exit COPA0002.... I dont know how you would use it considering you have RR in place....
Be very careful in doing this

Actual Values for the Cost Components in COPA - TC - KE4R

Hi,
In TC: KE4R, we are maintaining the value field for each Cost Components from the Cost Components Structure.
And the Point of Valuation is 01.
My understanding is that, when we use this value fields in the COPA report, it will show the value of the standard cost estimate from the cost component structure and not the actual cost that has incurred during the transaction.
Am I correct? If not please correct me.
If yes, then How can I get the actual cost for these cost component structure in the value fields.
Please help.
Thanks and regards

Hi Ajay,
we have a requirement that we need details about what makes cost of sales numbers in COPA.
i know the our VPRS value is flowing into COPA as COGS but now we want that we should have ite detailed breakdown as per cost components.
can you please tell me detailed configuration steps to make this happen so that we can create a new COPA ke30 report which gives us the breakdown of the COGS numbers.
one more requirement is that for purchase parts our client is maintaing price PB00 condition and some other conditions like brokerage, freight etc in the info record for those materials and they want that all these conditions value should add up to show the COGS value for these purchase parts in the COPA report.. how do we do that?
please reply soon...
Thanks in advance,

Breakdown of COGS into ACTUAL cost components

Hello,
I am looking to design a product cost report which gives breakdown of COGS into actual cost components. We use moving average cost for all materials (purchased as well as manufactured) in a make to order environment.
For example:
Sales order - Shipped material A at COGS $100.
Process order # 1 produced material A using input material B and a series of operations defined in a recipe.
Process order # 1 costs: Input material B - $70
Operations cost - $30
Process order # 2 produced material B using raw material C and a series of operations.
Process order # 2 costs: Input material C - $40
Operations cost - $30
So, the results should look like COGS 100 comprise of $ 40 material cost and $ 60 operations cost.
I understand standard cost estimates can be linked to CO-PA fields to get cost component structure. But, we don't use standard costing. We use CO-PA which gives COGS.
Is there something similar to cost estimate to calculate as above? Or, this is a custom development.
Thanks in advance for any pointers / advice?

Help neede to get Cost Itemization for a material

Dear All,
I am developing one report for Cost Component Details. First of all I Fetch Cost Estimate No for the Material from KEKO table then I search KEPH table for its Cost Components here i get 2 entries for a material one is for UPPER LEVEL and One for LOWER LEVEL. And after that i use "BAPI_COSTESTIMATE_ITEMIZATION" to get itemization but my problem is that i am not able to find data for LOWER LEVEL Components. I want both UPPER & LOWER LEVEL itemization for the particular material so i can match overall cost.
So, can anybody help me in this matter.
Thanks in Advance,

RE: (forte-users) Reporting tools/components for ForteApplications?

Hi Robert,
A good place to start when it comes to reporting is Forte Consulting. They
have developed a tool called ReportKit, which is ActiveX integration with
Seagate Software's Crystal Reports tool. Crystal is not really a three-tier
tool (although, your Forte Consultant can probably set it up to mimic a
three-tier tool), but it is a quick, easy way to get quality reports from
your existing Forte applications. If you're interested, give your Forte
Sales Rep (or, better still, your Forte Regional Consulting Director) a
call. They can discuss pricing and scheduling. I've done several
integration projects with Crystal, and I highly recommend ReportKit for
small- to medium-sized reporting requirements. As for costs, I don't recall
how much CrystalReports runs, but I think there are developer licenses and
runtime licenses.
FYI, the actual integration of ReportKit is pretty quick. The more
time-consuming piece of any report tool integration is the design and
implementation of the reports to be used.
I hope this helps.

Hi all,
We are looking for what is currently in the marketplace to enhance the
reporting
capabilities of Forte. Ideally, we are looking for component libraries that
we
could import into our repository. Do these exist?
Currently, I have found six reporting tools that are out there. The

are Actuate, Crystal Reports, Report Workshop from Indus Consultancy
Services, Brio Technologies (SQR) VisualBRIO, Visual CyberQuery from
Cyberscience Corp., and Beacon from Brahma Software Solutions FORTify

If anyone is currently using one of these Reporting Tools for Forte or
any
others, could you give me any indications as to the costs, training, type
of
application using the Reporting tool, would you recommend using the
product
again, does it use wrappering or API, or is it a component based tool, and
any
other relevant information on the product?

I think, SUN is not al all interested in TOOL.If TOOL were just a language and had no market yet, you are probably

an existing and profitable market. Sun still sells FORTRAN, after all, and
continues to put money into ADE development for all its language
products. The real kicker, though, is that I think iPlanet is very clear
that Fusion, now iIS, is a very key product for them. There may be those
who wish it were written in Java and who might lobby for doing a Java
version, but it was clear at the conference that the iPlanet management
recognize that Java just isn't up to the task at this point. It isn't as
if all the iPlanet tools are actually written in Java, after all.
They will only support them for as long as they need.Or, more likely, for as long as they make money.
Now, in response to Microsofts .NET stratagy. We have yet to see how
succesfull this will be, but I expect Microsoft to push this down the

Cost Components (High Importance)

Hallo, SAP'ers!
I'm gonna execute Material cost estimate with quantity structure (CK11N)
I use my own cost component structure with it's own cost components(created by copying several of them from the standard one). I assigned cost elements to these cost components
using Assignment: Organiz. Units - Cost Component Struct I assigned created by me cost component structure to my company code.
the structure is activated.
when I process CK11N, only data in "Raw materials" component are displayed which is taken from material master record of the calculating material.
where can I enter planned data for every cost element in order this data is calculated and displayed for every cost component to which according cost elements are assigned?
Step-by-step recommendations in customizing will be very helpful and rewarded.
Thanks!

Hi Drabkov
Have you created costing sheet
Have you created activity type for production and wages Ex set up,machine,power and labour KL01
Have you planned the activity type KP26
Create work center Cr01 assign the activity and cost center in costing tab with formula.
create Routings CA01
or masterreceipe(if process industry) C201
then run the cost estimate CK11N ,it willcome

Change in finished product inventories / cost components

Hello,
We are in the process of implementing SAP and couldn't get an answer to the following.
Our understanding is that the production cost of each finished product is calculated by SAP based on cost components. After manufacturing, the finished products are transferred to the finished product inventory. The change in finished product inventory account (say 713000) is credited with the production cost of the product.
Instead of having this single 713000 account impacted, we would like to have the change in finished product inventory broken down into several, say 713001 raw material component in finished product, 713002 labour cost component in finished product, 713003 subcontracting cost component etc. Can we get SAP to credit automatically each of these accounts based on the cost component (or group of cost components) information in the system ? How should we configure it ? (is there a link between the cost component or group of cost component and the account)
Many thanks for your help
Best regards

Hi Vincent,
In my understanding you are not clear with the requirement and therefore you are struggling with SAP. Please understand the following:
1. The posting of GL accounts are determined by valuation class in material master. So if you want to post on different GLs please define those many valuation class in MM and assign the correct Valuation class to FG goods.
2. When you confirm the production, SAP post the goods issue (i.e. material you define in BOM) by debiting the Material consumption account and credit the invertory accounts. And also post the goods receipt posting by debiting the FG inventory account and credit the Factory output a/c.
3. Here you have to convience your client that it is best pratice to have one inventory account for one material type, like RM inventory, SFG inventory and FG inventory. Normally we classify the consumption posting in different GLs like Material consumption, Labour consuption, Overhead utilization etc. and that you can define in your cost component structure by grouping the relevent GLs in given cost component items.
4. You have to explain them how SAP works in product costing and how GL documents are posted. You have to also explain them the posting impact in P&L and BS.
I will suggest that you should rediscuss the requirement and explain them the SAP way of valuation and posting. It is a big change management issue and as a CO consultant it is most challenging task.
Thanks and all the best,
Vivek

COGS at standard, broken down / cost components

Dear masters
I went through numerous post but could not find the answer
We here do not have COPA. However I wish to find a report that would break my COGS at standard, into the cost components.
(raw material, labor..)
Do you know of any such report?
We have a classic configuration, with COGS journal entry posted at standard cost when the goods are issued to the customer
(movemnt type 601)
KR - Loï

Hi,
I am not sure whether there is any report of such type.
But you can check the T.Code S_P00_07000139 (Stock Card and Inventory Material Report) which gives the price per unit. In your case it would be standard cost per unit of COGS.
The labour and overhead can be taken from the tables A014 and KONP by matching the condition record number. You can try to create a report through sqvi for the same.

Hari

CO-PC Cost components are not assigned when actual cost was posted

Hi Expert,
I estimate material cost by Tcode CK11N, the result is cost components were assigned to plan cost. It's okay. But, I have a problem when posting actual cost.
After actual cost was posted by confirming backflush, I run Tcode KKBC_PKO to check again, but Cost Component field is not assigned to actual cost.
Please tell me the reason.
Regard,

Hi,
Thank for your answer.
I will check Cost component Structure, and ensure that all cost elements were assigned.
Additional, cost components were assigned to PLAN cost, but not assigned to ACTUAL cost.
Do I have to configure something more?

COPA document created from billing document, cost components are twice

Hi Experts,
Ref Subject line : COPA document created from billing document, cost components are twice.
I have checked the following :
1. Cost Estimate of a material
2. Production Confirmation of the Order
When comparing both of the above, they are same, without variance.
Now when a COPA document is created, we observe the Cost Component Split in Sales Order to be exactly TWICE as compared to Cost Estimate of the material.
May I please request help from you all. What must be the cause & where do i check / rectify.
Regards,
Hussein.

Hi Hussein
If you are seeing double in KE30 Report - May be you are updating both sales order and billing doc in COPA and hence you are seeing 2 line items.. But one of them will be record type A and the other one with F
If the above is not the case and you are seeing double in the COPA document itself - Then See if you have mapped VPRS cond type in KE4I to the same value fields as Cost Comp Split
Also, one strong possibility that you are using Batch Split in SD.. .... Which means your delivery document (VL03N) will have multiple batches of materials being delivered to the customer....
a. In this case, your Item Category for main item (HPOS) and Sub Item (UPOS) has to be different and the Item catg for UPOS should not be relevant for billing / Costs... Note 77414 descirbes this situation and the settings to be done in SD Customizing
b. You may need to apply note 352441 in your system

Cost Components CKM3

Hi....in the transaction CKM3 in the option Cost Components there is one "Cost Component" called "Depreciation" that is definied in OKTZ like "Fix Cost" , but in the CKM3 report by Cost Components "Depreciation" is showing one portion in Fixed field and other portion in "Variable", la portion that is showed in "variable" is one account that is part "Depreciation" component, so, I can´t found why one account this report is showing like a variable cost.
Excuse my english
Thanks
Daniel

Hi,
Maybe the cost elements behind Depreciation are different in Main and Auxiliary CCS, therefore the results may be
different.
Check the Main cost component structure and Auxiliary cost component structure in OKTZ.
Additionally, you may check the actual BOM for Production version. You can see if there the activity Depreciation as
an input in the actual BOM.
Also check table CKMLPRKEPH for this activity, and see where Auxiliary CCS receives the costs from component Depreciation,
and Main CCS receives component Depreciation

Tried unsuccessfully to restore my MBP, running the Mac OSX Lion, to factory settings. I keep getting the "can't download additional components for the Mac OSX Lion" error when reinstalling the OSX Lion. Any tips on how to resolve this problem?

Hello! Tried unsuccessfully to restore my MBP, running the Mac OSX Lion, to factory settings. I keep getting the "can't download additional components for the Mac OSX Lion" error when reinstalling the OSX Lion. Any tips on how to resolve this problem?

Hi
Given that your answer to 1. is 'pre-installed' and 3. is 'No', I think the only thing to do is to take it to an Apple store (ideally the one you bought it from) and have them reinstall it for you.
The intended solution in cases like yours is that you should be able to reboot and install even a wiped disk by using Apple's servers over the internet (you do this by restarting with 'command-r' and choosing 'reinstall Lion'). However if this isn't working for you then you need to get the store to do it. Don't let them fob you off with 'go home and try again'. Have them do it in the shop (you're still covered by Applecare warranty so it should cost you nothing save the inconvenience of the trip and possibly leaving the machine there while they fix it).
A reinstall should leave all your own personal data and programs in place.
Note for future: when you get it fixed, first thing to do is buy a cheap external drive and start keeping a backup (either Time Machine or clone with Carbon Copy Cloner).
