Costing Key & Component split in the COGS in COPA

I have done settings for accessing the Standard Cost Estimate using Costing Keys in Profitability Analysis. However, while going through the the Sales Invoices posted, I do not find that the components from the cost estimate is not appearing with any values as the split of the COGS. I dont know where I am going wrong ? Where I can check about any missing setting ?

Hi Nikkitha ,
If you have to have the COGS in COPA and have cost component split.. please ensure that following configurations are completed..
1. KE4U - Valuation Strategy 001 should be there .- (DETAILS Tab) assign 001 to Qty Field ABSMG and tick "Mat Cstng" indicator
2. KE4U - In (Assignment Tab) Please Assign 001 to PV=01 and Record Type = F
3. Create a Costing key in KE40
4. Assign Costing key to mat types in KE4J or KEPC
5. Assign Cost Comp Split to Value Field in KE4R....
Please ensure that in KE4R .. you have select correct cost component structure and populated the value fields where the costs will flow..........

Cost component Split not transferring while costing using Spec Prc Key

Hi Fellow CO consultants,
I have come across an strange scenario in my work could you help me on it . We are using special procurement key to get the prices between cross company code costing while doing costing run the Materials which have the cost component split from KKPAN (costing without quantity structure ) we find an strange behaviour of update of the costing price .
scenario 1:That is Using KKPAN the FG materials are costed with fixed and variable cost and are marked (future ) but not released in the Production plant . Now while doing the CK40n at warehouse level the Cost component split is correctly picked up the receiver plant using the Spec Prc key properly the fixed and variable cost split .
But
Scenario 2: Using KKPAN the FG materials are costed and then price is released and the material price is at current standard price .Now while doing the CK40N run the cost component split is not picking the variable and fixed contribution its picking up the Total price of the material .( this behavior is observed only in materials done with KKPAN other materials with quantity structure provides the variable and fixed itemization even in the current price of the material ) The prerequsite of the transfer control statergy is set as fist to check the future price for the fiscal year and next the current price of the material if no future price exist. The cost component split and the costing variant are the same .
Appreciate your thoughts .. on helping Scenario 2 case why does the cost component split take the fixed and variable cost while the price of the material is in Current.
regards
GK

Dear Prasad
Try masking costing variant too at assignment to plant and co code.

Error in CK11n - The system could not determine a cost component split for

Hi All,
When i run CK11n i have following error:
The system could not determine a cost component split for the internal activity with activity type 502000 of cost center 10100.
Procedure
Check the master data for activity type 502000 of cost center 10100. It is possible that no activity price calculation has been carried out for the cost center.
could any one give me solution
Thanking you.

Well, did you run activity price calculation for the relevant cost center(s)?
The CCS you're using for product costing (either your COGM split, or the auxillary) has been marked as a "primary" cost component split. It wants to break secondary costs down into their cost components, and assign those components to components in its own structure.
Wihout a planned CCS for the activity, this isn't possible. (This is normally calculated by KSPI during planning.)
Either calculate an activity CCS is KSPI, assuming that all the prerequisites are in place for that, or uncheck the "primary cost component split" indicator in your costing variant configuration.

Cost Component Splits

Hello,
We're using Special Procurement Keys in order to transfer cost estimates in a production plant to a DC. These cost estimates currently all come over with a full cost component split. For plants that do not belong to the same company, we don't want to see the cost component split at the receiving plant.
Is there any way to use Special Procurement Keys or Transfer Control so that Intercompany plant relationships don't transfer the cost component splits?
Thanks,
Nick

Hello Nick,
In SAP Product Costing, the cost will allway be stored in cost components and it will be tranferred in similar way to to higher level and tranfer to another plant. Even earlier we have faced similar issue. The better way is to understand how the system stores and do work around.
Hope this helps.

Actual Cost component split - Per PO

Dear ML Experts,
We have activated Material Ledger and Actual costing/ Actual cost component split in our implementation. The standard cost is based on delivery costs and there is no manufacturing involved. In order to test ML, we created some POs and did a GR and IR for those POs. When I look at the Material Price analysis on the Price Determination Structure View, I can see the Price differences per transaction (Goods receipt, Invoice receipt).
But when I go to the Cost component View (Actual), I cannot drill down into the individual transactions. I am able to see the actual cost component split only at the summarized level across multiple transactions. I can see the category Purchase Order under Receipts, but I am unable to drill down to see the actual cost component split for the individual transactions (goods receipts, invoice receipts). Did I miss anything on the configuration? The client wants to see the price differences per cost component per transaction and actual cost component split per transaction.
Is it possible to view this information using standard configuration? Would I have to change the controlling level in order to achieve this?
Can you please provide your advice?
Thanks,
Balram

Hi Balram.
If you have access to an IDES system, you can see a Cost Component split like this:
As fas as I know, this is only for educational porpouses. In the standard System, its not recomended have the detail of the split per movement, due to the huge amount of data genereted. There is a Flag that control this, in a Txxx table (i dont have access to the system right now).
If you really want this functionality, write SAP in the marketplace, and I guess their response is exactly what im saying.

Activating Cost Component Split

Hi People,
I have to do some tests and for while i need to activate the "cost component split" in the path:
\IMG\ Controlling\ Product Cost Controlling \ Actual Costing/Material Ledger \ Actual Costing \ Activate Actual Cost Component Split (by valuation area)
I would like to know if there is some impacts for that and
if we have some problems to revert, becuase at this moment it is only a test.
Thanks,
Rosana.

Hello Paul,
Thanks for your answer.
We already use "material ledgder" but we don´t have activate component split. But look, what I am talkin is only one transaction (that I said before), becuase I have to do some test inside the aplication BW and it is a prerequisite.
I would like to know what is the impact to activate the component split on that transaction I said before.
It is only a test, but I don´t know if I put a flag in that transaction, the system will create some table internally.
And other thing I don´t know is, if It it is possible to reverte the activation (only in that transaction) that I would update and if there is some impacts.
Thanks a lot.

Need to de-activate Actual cost component split

Hi All,
I need to de-activate Actual cost component split in the test client.
It has been activated by my testing associate by mistake.
Please let me know the do and donts if anyone has done this de-activation before.
I could not find any relevent OSS messages or consulting notes on this topic
We are using ML Actual Costing and Multi Currency - without actual cost component split.
Thanks in advance,

Cost Component Splitting in Joint Production

Hello.
I meet a trouble in the cost component splitting for the co-product.
I tried to creat a BOM like :
                             A                       B
                              C (CCS1)           D(CCS2)
the raw material C&D are in different cost component,and the manufacturing matertials are A&B.
and I set the apportionment structure like A(CCS1 100%,CCS2 50%)   B(CCS1 0%, CCS2 50%)
Then i run the CK11N,and the result is correct.
But the problem is as following:
when I creat a BOM like :
                             A                       B
                                          E
                              C (CCS1)          D(CCS2)
the raw material C&D are in different cost component,and the semi-product matertial is E,then E is producted for finished product A&B.
and I set the apportionment structure like A(CCS1 100%,CCS2 50%)   B(CCS1 0%, CCS2 50%)
then i run the CK11N,and the result is wrong.
whatever i set the apportionment structure,the result of the CCS is A (CCS1 50%,CCS2 50%),B(CCS1 50%,CCS2 50%)
anybody can tell me how i can get the correct result?
                                                                                Roc

Hi
Make cost splitting structure and assigne to Production Cost Center.
Run Cost splitting KSS2 for cost splitting according to activity types.

Auxiliary cost component splitting issue in CK11N

Hi Friends,
We are using primary cost component split for the auxiliary cost component structure for getting more information. We have a machine cost in the main cost component which is split in three auxiliary cost component i.e. Energy, Maintenance and depreciation.
My belief is that with the activation of primary cost component split the costs have to flow from cost center in its primary cost element form to this cost component structure.
With the current data that we have, the cost component split is seen for all the three cost elements in the auxiliary cost component split u2013 But we are not able to trace the source of this amount as we do not have any splitting structure in place, the plan costs are only for Energy not for Maintenance and depreciation.
OKES Configuration:
Selection for assignment:
Cost Element               GMACHINE (only for Energy)
Activity Type     MACH
Splitting rules:
10                                        21     Equivalence Numbers Planning
Machine 0.64 is splitting into as follows Depreciation 0.41, Energy 0.12 and Maintenance 0.11
I am afraid from where splitting happening for Energy and depreciation and there is not receiving   splitting rules.
Appreciate for quick reply
Thanks

Hi to Evrybody,
I am trying to configure Primary Cost Component Split,, but I am confused what are the technical steps to configure such a structure 
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/en/7e/cb7e8643a311d189ee0000e81ddfac/content.htm
There are several requirements how to configure in SAP Primary Cost Component Split:
1)You assign a cost component structure in the CO version in Cost Center and Process cost planning! Which Cost Component Structure? The Primary Cost Component Structure or the Cost Component Structure?
2)You determined the prices through planned price iteration!                                                                 We set this indicator in the CO Version itself?
3)You define a Cost Component Structure for Primary Cost Component Split of Product Cost Planning! How do we define it, via simply checking the check in OKTZ?
I want to understand when you create Cost Component Structure and Primary Cost Component Structure, which one of these 2 needs to be assigned in the CO version in Cost Center Accounting? And the other thing is I do not make the difference between Cost Component Structure and Auxiliary Cost Component Structure? Could you please shortly describe what is the difference? Other thing is when you create Primary Cost Component Structure and its components, DO THEY INCLUDE ONLY RANGE OF PRIMARY COST ELEMENTS OR IT IS A TECHNICAL STEP ONLY TO CHECK THAT CHECK IN OKTZ FOR Primary Cost Component Split. Let me know, thank you very much for your help and cooperation again!

K/834 no standard cost estimate and ke435 costing key 000 does not exist

Hi ,
scenario as under we have following type of materials
normal Material that has cost estimate
Configuarable material
Material without cost estimate -prices are updated thru MR21 (as some legacy system calculated the price)
There are many company codes and use one or more above category of material. further we have common Material type and valuation class.
we need cost component split to get updated in COPA and for that i create 2 costing key one for normal and other for normal one and developed an enhancement (KEPC) that check whether material is configurable or not. based on that it assign 001 or 002 costing key
it went well but failed for material that has no cost estimate and got error K/834.
To tackle same we insert further logic to check for normal material whether cost estimate exist, if yes then assign costing key 001 else ignore it. configurable material logic remain as it is. it working fine for normal and Configuarable material but normal material without cost estimate resulted in error KE435.
need to know:
-at first place why system generates K/834 error for enhancement - earlier we were using assignment rule (KEPC) where we use valuation class and assigned costing key 001, it worked for normal one and ignore configurable one and normal material without cost estimate. I haven't changed costing key rule and exclusive error is not marked .
- any other way to tackle besides resetting message class from error to warning or changing Materila type or valuation class as that is not acceptable due to other complexity.

Atul

Hi,

What is meant by costing key?

Dear Experts ,
while releasing the billing document to accounts , i am getting error like
Valuation with material cost estimate: error, The system looked for the material cost estimate using costing key "002", as defined in the Customizing settings for CO-PA, incomplete due to FI/CO interface
what is meant by costing key?

rajakarthik

Hi,
In Costing based Profitability analysis you define costing keys. A costing key is a set of access parameters which are used in valuation to determine which data in Product cost planning should be read. In the costing key you attach the costing variant.
In the costing key you specify whether the system should read the current standard cost estimate, the previous standard cost estimate or the future standard cost estimate or a saved cost estimate.
The configuration settings to determine this costing key is as follows:
Assign costing keys to the products u2013 Three costing keys can be attached to a single product for a specific point of valuation, record type, plan version.
Assign costing keys to Material types
Assign costing keys to any characteristics u2013 You can use your own strategy to determine the costing keys. This is through user defined assignment tables.

Missing I/C cost key

Hi All,
I have a scenario and testing for Dropshipment. I have created a order and Delivery.GI completed and try to process the Invoice i am getting the error saying that " Missing I/C cost key". Its having the Billing block in the delivery header.
I f i remove the block in the delivery and save the document and its populating the block immediately.
Please help me in this regards..

Transfer of COGS to COPA

Hi,
This is a third party sale scenario, Vendor (K) is selling to the Customer (D) & invoicing thru our client (X).
Now in this case, ideally vendor incoice value whould be the COGS for this sale. And it is happening rightly, at the time of GR for Vendor's PO debit to the COGS, trading goods account & credit to the GRIR account.
But if you look at the COGS from COPA, report KE24 the COGS value is from the material master at the billing invoice quantitty.
Can somebody help me in finding out where we do the configuration for the price update in COPA. And also kindly let me know how to change the COGS value in COPA.
Thanks & Regards,
Raghava

Hi
Do you produce the Product "ih-house" too and you use Product cost estimation?. If so, check whether you have valuation stategy assigned to that product or to any combination of characteristics in COPA Valuation

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 )

Production Overhead
Power - Main
Stores,Spare,Consum
Repairs & Maint
Lease & Hire Char-PM
Power - Auxiliary

we done the plan for Amount and Qty by KP06,KP26 and update plan price but system not calculate the cost component splitting in cost estimate as per planning while only one item showing for all cost to Production Overhead cost component
Production Overhead cost component which assign the secondary cost element which is assign to activity type 400
can any one help me to how we can resolve this issue
Please find attached document

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.

Cost component split: incorrect allocation of by-product generated

Hi everyone,
I have a question involving the costs of by-products generated and their allocation on the cost component split.
Suppose that a production order, besides the main product, also generates a secondary product. By-products in standard system are confirmed with movement type 531. In transaction OMJJ this movement is linked to key GBB / ZOF. This key is assigned to a G/L account and this account is assigned to a cost element in OKTZ.
Example:
GBB / ZOF > G/L account 1000 > Cost component 10
Thus, the by-product generated should be allocated to the cost component number 10.
However, this does not happen. These costs are allocated to another cost component. This is because SAP ERP appears to use the key GBB / VBR to calculate the cost component split.
To summarize: for accounting purposes the system uses the GBB / ZOF (which is correct!), but in the cost component structure the system seems to use the GBB / VBR (which makes the costs of by-product being incorrectly assigned).
GBB / ZOF > G/L account 1000 > Cost component 10 (used ONLY for accounting purposes).
GBB / VBR > G/L account 2000 > Cost component 20 (it seems to be used in cost component split). INCORRECT!
Can anyone confirm whether that statement proceeds?
Regards,
Kelson

Hi
This behaviour is corect.... Consumption accounts are used in Cost Comp Str (CCS)
GBB-ZOF is actualy sort of COGM accounts specified in GBB-AUF which is used to Credit the order at the time of GR from prod order
Just the way, AUF is not used in CCS, ZOF is also not used...
You need to maintain separate account in GBB-VBR for the consumption of By Products... For this, the val class of By products need to be separate
Else, if yu dont wanna do this - have a separate Origin Group in the Mat Master of By products and You can assign the Combo of GL Account + Origin Group to a separate Cost Component
