Kindly provie me the transaction code and some inputs on how can i proceed.

Thanks
Kishore

Hi Kishore,
We can plan Sales Revenue through T-code KEPM-Edit Planning Data or through T-code KE13N by Uploading CO-PA-Sales Plan in Quantity and Revenue terms. Here we have to set different Plan Layouts for Quantities and Revenues. After successfully uploading the data file, we have to transfer the Sales Plan data to SOP in T-code-KE1E. Then We can check the values by Co Code, Plant, Product-wise and Customer in T-code KE25-Display Plan line items.

Sales Pricing without Inquiry using detailed Cost element Planning

Deal All,
I need to use use Sales Pricing without Customer Inquiry to Genrate Quatation from Project.
In my project client is asking to use deatiles cost element planning for same. So, let me know
Weather its possible to use Detailed cost element planning for doing Sales pricing in DP82
or Do we need to use ECP only to do Sales Pricing??
Also, let me know if there will be any change in RA method also.
regards,
Atul

Hi Atul,
You can use any of the cost planning method (i.e Details cost element planning, ECP or Network Costing) to create Quotation using DIP Profile.
Coming to the second point..any effect on RA calculation..This Quotation creation process is no where effects RA calculation.
basically for creating Quotation usign DIP Profile, there should be cost element wise planned cost required.
Hope this clears you...
regards,
Hari.

Planning on WBS elements without cost elements

Hi all,
we are trying to implement the planning solution where users will be able to plan on individual WBS elements monthly but without providing a breakdown on cost elements. Standard SAP planning profiles allow to post plan values on WBS elements in annual view without cost elements. But when you want a monthly view the system you need to click on primary cost elements planning first.
Is there any way to plan monthly but at cost object (WBS) level only?
Many thanks,
Roman

Hi Eli,
thanks for your response. We will be using budget functionality for budget purposes but at the same time we will need to use planning on different versions. I believe there are no versions for budget.
One of the idea to minimize cost element planning is to introduce like a planning cost element to use with all planning postings and then include this into the same cost element group with the rest of cost elements for plan/actuals comparison reports.
If you have something in your mind I would appreciate your input.
Thank you,
Roman

Cost Center & Cost Element Excel Planning Profile Error - KP06

Hi,
I have created a layout for cost center/cost element planning.after that i have created planner profile.but while saving the generic file,i am getting the below error and not able to save that.Kindly advice me.
A later upload is not possible with this layout
Message no. K9363
Diagnosis
The layout cannot be used for an upload. This can be caused by one of the following situations:
The layout does not contain a data field that is ready for input.
The layout has a lead column that only contains the text for the characteristic value and not the characteristic value itself
The layout contains formulas
The layout has a complex lead column and contains empty lines.
System response
If generic file names have already been created (that is, an upload is intended), the file description cannot be saved.
Procedure
If you want to use the layout for an upload, configure it accordingly.
If one of the last three situations is the case, the layout can only be used for manual planning and not for an upload. In this case, remove the generic file name.
Thanks

Hello Ravi,
I repeatedly used the following programms Ajay might refer to.
First guess: xx29 might help.
"Best practice?": I would not call it best practice. At least it is SAP-reports and not
customer-specific reports.
I hope it helps.
With kind regards

COST Element Based Planning

Hello All,
We are trying to plan cost of WBS Element based on cost elements.
what we are trying to do -
> CJ40, we want to plan on cost element level so on clicking the button "primary costs" (or via the menu: "Extras -> detailed planning -> Primary costs") we end up in an error message saying -
Group INT-2 does not contain any entries
Message no. K8004
Diagnosis
Group INT-2 does not contain any single values. You cannot use it in planning.
System Response
The SAP System rejects the planning layout and your entry.
Procedure
Use either a different group or enter values for group INT-2.
CONFIGURATION for Planning Profile (T Code - OPSB) for the planning profile used in WBS Element Primary cost element group assigned is INT-2.
Question2
- Does cost element planning influenced by the cost element group assigned in the planning profile.
- How to solve this error.
Points assured.
Warm Regards,
Jatinder Bansal

this is because in planning profile (Txn OPSB) you have INT-2 as cost element group and there are no cost elements assigned as pointed out by Venkat
use transaction CJR2 instead of CJ40 and then plan for any cost element group or cost element that you already have

Planning for Assessment cost element

Hi
How we can do the planning for Assessment cost element ?? why it is different from other secondary cost element planning.
Thanks
Deepak

both are two different things in term of business applications.
When you know exact amount to be planned at cost center level then this is SCE planning and when you dont know exact amount then that can be done through assessment planning.
Hope this helps you.

Cost center planning by functional area

hi gurus,
The client needs to do manual planning in CO (KP06) by cost center/cost element/fund/functional area. This data is later gets rolled up in FM to formulate the budget data. The client wants to enter all the account assignment manually except for functional area. They want that system automatically derive the functional area based on the cost center (one to one relationship). I tried the CO substitution but this functionality is only for actual data and not plan data. Any suggestion how I can derive the functional area in CO planning based on cost center?

Hi,
Functional area is required for cost of sales accounting in Finance. It has got nothing to do with Cost Center planning. Functional area shall not be visible in controlling. Pl update this constraint to the client and go ahead with Cost center/cost element planning with necessary one to one relationship with Fund center, etc.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

Cost Center Budget-Cost element wise

Dear SAP Gurus,
My client needs to create cost center budgets cost element wise. For e.g. Salary paid (code 430000) in Development Cost center (code 9901).
We now use KPZ2 to create cost center budgets and KP06 for cost element planning. Kindly guide.
Regards,
Siva

Hi Ramesh,
Thank you for the reply. I did suggest them to use KP06 but they require some sort of validation when posting an expense (cost element) to and cost center.
For e.g. If the travel budget for Marketing cost center is $1000, they need the system to prevent posting once that amount is exceeded.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Regards,
Siva

Cost Element missing in FAGLFLEXT for some PCA Plan records

Hi Gurus,
We have uploaded a PCA plan and can see the same in GP12NA. I see the planned values (GLPL) in FAGLFLEXT from SE16 under the correct accounts for 0L ledger for the correct company code and the fiscal year. I noticed a difference in the data
1) For the revenue elements (11 and 12 Categories) the 'cost element' field is not getting populated in FAGLFLEXT. ('Account' is populated.) Is it expected?
2) We have a Z library report that was built on FAGLFLEXT. The report uses the cost element groups to pull in the data and hence the 'Actual Values' are pulled in the report but the 'Plan Values' are missing. (Because of point1)
Any pointers on how to fix this?Could you please suggest the places i would need to look to fix this?
(I've checked that the plan vesion is activated for 2011)
(The report has version Z2 as one of its parameters.)
Regards,
Erp.Warrior

Thanks a lot for your replies.
Waman: I've looked up the Note 983835 - NewGL planning: Cost element field (COST_ELEM) initial.
This note talks about the Cost element not getting populated during planning. My question / confusion is in my case, the cost element is getting populated for some of them and not getting populated only for cost elem category 11 and 12.
Is this note intended for this issue?
Ajay: I've tried re-planning and still found the same issue. Thanks for your inputs. I'll analyse about the Note that waman has referred to and then may be go to SAP as suggested by you.
Please let me know if any of you have any other suggestions as well.
Thanks

BAPI KPF6 POST PLAN COST FOR INTERNAL ORDER AND COST ELEMENT

Hi all gurus,
I would like to use in a custom report a BAPI/Function Module that help me to simulate KPF6 in order to post planning costs for internal order and cost element (layout 1-401).
So the input should be:
1) Version
2) period from
3) periodo to
4) year
5) internal order n.
6) cost element n.
7) value
I found a lot of BAPI but don't know the correct one and how to use it (example how to fill the input value).
Can anyone help me on that?
Kind Regards

In additio to the previous I found the BAPI_COSTACTPLN_POSTPRIMCOST but don't know if it's the correct one and how to use it (some example fitting the my case will be very appreciated).
If the quoted BAPI is correct.
I tested it filling all fields as following:
HEADERINFO:
CO_AREA=FFCA
FISC_YEAR=2008
PERIOD_FROM=001
PERIOD_TO=012
DOC_HDR_TX='blank'
INDEXSTRUCTURE:
OBJECT_INDEX=000001
VALUE_INDEX=000004 (hope this point at Interna Order)
ATTRIB_INDEX=000000
COOBJECT:
OBJECT_INDEX=000001
ORDERID=ZO53-08IMZ
TOTVALUE:
VALUE_INDEX=000004
COST_ELEM=3224048
FIX_VALUE= 200,0000
DIST_KEY_FIX_VAL=2
The Return table is set to 0. Nothing happens.....I suspect something related to indexstructure or index is wrong..
Could anyone help me on that?
Kind Regards
