Cost of production

where we manintain COST OF PRODUCTION TYPE in SPRO.i want to change year in cost of production type

Sanjay,
Your question is not clear. There are two type of costing types 1) Production-Planned cost and 2) Production- Actual cost.
Both you can maintain in transaction OPMI.
If any more question then revert us with details.

Cost of Production BOM in Prodcution Order

Hello Experts,
Here is scenario that i need help :
Assume that we have a Production BOM with two components with a price of $10 in the pirce list :
Parent Item: A0001 ( Price of A0001 is $10)
Components : A0002,A0003 ( Price of A0002 is $0 and Price of A0003 is $10)
When we create a prodcution order for A0001 with a quantity 1000 and close , i noticed that in the summary tab of Prodcution Order and noticed that Actual component cost : $10,000 and Actual cost : $0 and Total Variance : $10,000.
Due to this there is variance in Prodcution Clearing Account. Could you please help me a right approach on how to enter correct cost for Production BOM.
Any help will be appreicated.
Thanks,

Actual cost of Production Order settled to Fixed Assets

Dear all,
My client is doing in-house production of moulds (internal order suggestion is not accepted by the client) for which
they have the following
1. BOM
2. Machine hour
3. labour
4. overhead etc
5.plan value
6. actual value
Can i settle the actual cost of production order to Fixed Asset ?
If yes
what are process kindly give me if any process other then the below
1.production order created
2. settlement profile - FA is settlement optional
3. allocation structure
4. Asset created
5 define asset in settlement rule
Kindly give me your valuable input
regards
elango

Hi,
Although i am not CO expert , please check with your FICO consultant who are expert before make the final call.
During settlement to a G/L account or a fixed asset, the system ignores additional account assignments that were manually specified in the distribution rule.
Based on what i know .
you can stipulate that settlement may be made to cost centers and orders, but not to fixed assets.
The Settlement profile is something that you need to create a settlement rule to settle the actual costs of a sender object.
About the Settlement rule is something that contains the distribution rules for the sender. It will define how the way to settle the cost.
Allocation Structure
In the settlement structure you combine the primary and secondary cost elements into groups, in which debits are then posted to the sender objects. For each group, you specify whether (for settlement to a given receiver type) settlement is performed
by cost element or using a settlement cost element.
For example, you might use settlement cost elements:
To document the purpose of an order (such as, repairs or maintenance)
To reduce data volumes (you can combine a number of debit cost elements
under one settlement cost element).

Actual cost of product in COPA

Dear all,
I am relatively new to COPA functionality.
The requirement is that actual cost of product should be reflected in COPA and not the planned.
Kindly give me the background also, as in the integration of COPC and COPA.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Sudhakar is completely right in his comments. But, I would not just accept that actual costing is not active, so you have to find a solution without it. Your requirement is a good reason to activate actal costing, and calls for it.
The way SAP foresees to bring actual costs into CO-PA would be:
Activate material ledger / actual costing

Table of Actual cost of production

Hi Experts,
I m developing one Z report for our client which shud contain Standard cost & Actual cost of production of the sold material for that particular month.
I am following KKBC_PKO tcode for the same.

Can I know which table will have Actual cost details to present in above mentioned report??
Thanks in Advance.

To see the cost of production order after settlement to header material

hello guys,
   In make to stock,we settle the total cost of prodution order on header material,right(if we keep as the default rule( distribution rule in order type)?
     If i want to see that cost of production order which we settled against the header material,where should i check it?should i check in material account or somewhere else?
         Thanking you guys in advance.

Dear,
There is a little missunderstanding in your thought.
If the material of price control S, When you do the GR, the STD cost of material is deducted from production order cost, then when you settle the production order, the variance is settled to variance account/PD account. hence the production order cost balance is zero.
Example- Production order cost is 60000
After GR the production order cost balance is 60000-50000 = 10000.
After settlement production order cost balance is zero.
Now your question is where can i see the production order cost?
You can see the production order cost in the production order itself.
In the production order...cost disply option just filter the origin with test settlement and GR.
Then total up the cost, then you can see the cost as 60000.
please come back if you need more help.

What are options for applying non-inventory costs to production orders?

We have a non-inventory costs that need to be assigned to product produced on production orders. There are two processes -make-to-order and make-to-stock.
Currently we use activity rates to apply labor and burden costs to our production. We use separate cost centers where needed to ensure that we have sufficient granularity to our activity rates applied.
We have a few specific issues where we need to understand the options for applying costs -
1) We have freight and duty costs related to inbound raw material that we want to assign to our final product. The amount assigned may be either a specific amount (or a specific amount per model), or a % of the total cost on that production order.
2) We have material on the production order bill of material that is called out by quantity and we are using discrete backflush, however we have found there are issues with the accuracy of the quantities. We want to have this product ordered using KANBAN (bin ordering) and have the value relieved from inventory when the bin is issued to production. The cost on the production order is envisioned to be an average amount for the product - or an average amount by model.
3) We want to have a portion of cost for production scrap included in the cost of each product produced. (similar to freight and duty).
In all cases- the amount can change depending on analysis from accounting regarding freight and duty costs (these fluctuate depending on the cost savings we achieve with combined loads and depending on the amount of out of country sourcing), the scrap amount may change periodically depending on the initiatives to reduce scrap on the production floor, etc.
We currently use three activity types, labor, burden and tooling. It is my understanding that there is a limitation in SAP that keeps us limited to 6 activity types.
My questions are:
Are we limited on activity types? these are an option to apply additional costs, but may not be the best option if we want to change the amount applied based on model or apply as a percentage.
Are there other options for applying costs that we can explore? I want to be sure we take into account the various options available before we start down a specific path.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

As clarification- we are using standard costing for our raw material. We currently accumulate the incoming freight in a balance sheet account. This is treated as part of our inventory. We have considered using an activity type with a activity added to the BOM to apply the cost to the production order. Then we could use the secondarly cost element data to book an entry to relieve the freight account on the balance sheet.
Because we use standard costing- access to see production order variance is critical and must be maintained in any process we select. We also use COPA reporting- so the costing information must be able to flow to COPA for the specific orders/products/serial numbers.
We are doing make to order (production order / sales order specific combination) but also looking at a make to stock process - so the method to apply costs must take both of these configurations into consideration.
Rajneesh - you mentioned that I am limited to 6 activities in a work center- but does that mean I can have more than 6 activity types in SAP but only 6 activities in a work center/cost center combination?
Thank you.

Transfer of Costs in Product Cost Collector to COPA

Dear Experts,
Please can you advise me on this current issue I'm having. Below is a description of problem:
Customer is currently using report designed in COPA (KE30) to derive P&L report for using Plant as a characteristic.
This was being done at a time when Product Costing functionality was not being used
All costs (administrative, sales and production costs) were being collected in cost centers
At end of month assessment of cost center values to COPA is executed (KEU5)
Customer is then able to derive P&L report per Plant characteristic
However with implementation of Product Costing, all Production related costs are captured in Product Cost Collectors and not Cost Center
Hence we have no way of assessing or transferring total production costs from Product Cost Collector to CO-PA
We have tried to configure FI/MM PA transfer structure (KEI1) and default account assignment (OKB9) for automatic transfer of costs on goods receipt/issue, however this is not working because the product cost collector is used as the default account assignment for the transactions
So far only material cost valuation of sales/billed materials are possible (which does not address concern)
As a result we have a gap and customer is unable to derive P&L by Plant from CO-PA.
Can you advise if there is a way out, in order to have all Production Cost transferred to CO-PA.
Thanks,
Ola.

Hi Ola
Your Cost centers would be categorized as below
1. MFG Cost Centers (In Plant)
2. Service Cost Centers (In Plant)
3. Few Cost centers (outside plant) Eg: Sales, Marketing, Sales offices etc
At period end
1. Allocate the Costs from SER CC to MFG CC using Distribution / Assessment cycle.
This will make SER CC as zero
2. Calculate actual activity price in MFG CC (KSS2 / KSII)
3. After this, do revaluation of PCC using CON2.. This will make balance in MFG CC as zero
4. Allow the Variances to be updated to COPA by ticking the "Variances to Costing based COPA" in your settlement profile
5. In short, what remains for you to allocate to COPA is the 3rd category of CC.. i.e. you should allocate those CC to COPA whose cost is not included in the cost of product using COPC module

Difference between sale order Costing & Standard Product Costing

Hi experts
I wanted to know Importance of Sales Order Costing & standard Product Costing.what are the benefits of these.
Regards
Sandeep patil

Dear Sir,
we are implementing SAP in packing industry. In packing industry in PP Bill of material is frequently change, for this we are implementing sales order costing.
We are doing the following things,
1. we are doing the inquiry at that time we are doing unit costing.
2. On the basis of inquiry we are preparing the quotation. the unit costing done in inquiry flow to the Quotation because we r preparing the quotation with reference to inquiry.
3. Similarly we are preparing the sales order based on quoation and unit costing data flows.
4. Now when we run the MRP it doesnot explode the unit costing material requirement.
Please tell us how the unit costing material data will flow to MRP run.
Please reply.

Material cost in production order plan cost

Dear all,
-we are in sales order cost object with non-valuated stock...
-we have created two production orders from MRP run. First one is for semi finished material and second one is for finished material.
Issue-1
Both production orders not showing material cost in production order plan cost...
Issue-2
When i consumed raw material against semi-finished material production order (261-E), system not gnerated any document and material cost not updated either in production order or sales order...
where should i do changes in configuration to get updated material cost in the production order...
Best regards
Kishore

Hi
Issue 1 : Check Whether Standard cost is present for header material of prod order, and under control tab of order costing variant for plan is present.
Issue 2 : Use 261 instead 261E.

Product Costing and Production Planning

Hi,
Is Product Costing absolutely required before implementing Production Planning, specifically PP orders? My client does not want to plan costs or need any cost estimates. They want to use a PP order to check availability for a BOM, and then issue it out to an external vendor for services. After this material is processed by the external vendor, he would ship it back and we would be doing a goods receipt at the parent level of the BOM. The whole purpose of this is to get the accurate price of the BOM parent which would include all service costs. This parent would finally be sold via the regular SD sales order process. Our Logisitics consultant suggested that the only way this could be accomplished is a PP order. All this looks okay, but he also mentioned that a PP order cannot work without Product Costing and the process cant be accomplished CO-PC. I am unable to grasp why SAP would force us to have costing when the client doesnt need any cost estimates, planning etc. Could any one please tell me if we need CO-PC for this scenario?

Dear SAPFicon,
Technically, to run PP without using product cost planning would cause a lot of problems during business process of production order. Because, once a production order is created then the data structured is freezed in the PO and if there is any missing data it will cause errors. Any errors in production order would stop the following transactions. We never know what would be the error level of the production order. The worst case, the production or should be cancel and start it all over again.
But by using product costing or product cost planning, this is a preliminary step to prevent and eliminate any error of the products tobe produced.
So, ideally, there is one person in charge to ensure that the products which be produced in the production orders are free of error.
So, the product costing is an integrated module that take data from variouse module such as PP, MM, CO, HR.
The product costing use the Logistic master data such as folllowing;
1. Bill of material
2. Routing
3. Work center
4. Material master
How you can say, that running PP without PC will run, while the to run the smooth production order, you need to mandatory parameter in Material Master that belong to Costing area.
Without having product costing, I can assure that your client will trap in a lot of troubles with their business process.
Please see the online documentation for product costing for a better overview or you are welcome to ask again

Scrap costs in production

Hello,
Is there any possibility to post scrap costs during production against the standard costs until the scrap occured without using a special material for making the scrap posting?
For example:
Standard cost production: 1000
No of operations: 4
St cost Op 1: 300
St cost Op 2: 100
St cost Op 3: 400
St cost Op 4: 200
Suppose that scrap occurs at Op 2. In the confirmation we confirm the scrap and want to have the costs posted in FI and CO at 400 per piece.
Which settings do we have to maintain in order to make this possible (without creating new materials).
Thank you for the information in advance
Regards,
Johan

If you do not want to consider the scrap qty. in operations but want to consider it only for costing purpose, then create a costing BOM i.e. usage 6. In this BOM you can maintain the scrap. Also ensure the costing variant which you're using has a priority of costing bom over say production bom or universal bom.
Discuss this with your costing person as well.

Costing the production order for the configured material

We are trying to cost the production order for a configurable item. But the system is not calculating any cost in the production order. Sales order related to this configurable material is costed. What additional setting I need to cost the production order for the configured material ?

Hi Niki
If your SO is costed, thats enough from a System's perspective... Planned cost will be the sales order cost estimate because SO saves the Chars required for the Configurable material
Planned cost in Prod order depends on the Costing variant you have assigned in the order type... Check the error log if there is any error in cost calculation in prod order
