Costing of phantom in a BOM

Hi all
I'm trying to cost a material which has a phantom component in the BOM.
Can someone clarify if the phantom needs to be costed at all..? I mean, does "no costing" indicator need to be set in costing 1 tab of material master..?
Can someone explain this please?
Thanks very much

Hello -
A phantom material does not need to have a standard cost becuase the costing program will ignore that particular material when calculating for the upperl level item. Instead, the cost of the components that make up the phantom assembly are taken into consideration. Any labor that is stored in the routing for the phantom assembly is also ignored if one exists.
Hope that helps.

Costing a Phantom

We are implementing WIP and BOM with the use of phantoms.
At the moment can not configure the system to show the costs of
the phantoms at previous levels at the subassembly or finish
good, somebody handle phantoms in previous levels and how made
the configurarion to make the cost roll up at the last level.
Regards from Mexico.

Not sure if i understand the question, however if the question
is
"Can i roll up the costs of phantom items by rolling up the cost
of it's components and routing for phantom"
Yes you can do this in 11i, by setting up parameters in BOM.

Phantom item without BOM

Hi experts,
In 2007 A, when a production order contained a Phantom item that did not have an associated BOM an error was thrown and the BOM could be created then. In 8.81, no such error is generated and these can slip by. Am I perhaps missing a checkbox to get that error again?
Thanks

Actually that error did appear on a second Phantom with no BOM, so we're not sure what happened on the first one.

Standard cost with material with alternate BOM and Routing

I have a set up where the same material can be manufactured in 2 different production lines and each production line has two different BOMs and Routings. If I want to have a blended standard cost for the material what are our options?
We do not want to do split valuation.
thanks a lot

Hi
You can different PCC (Product cost collector) for both lines of the same product (Product cost by period).
You can define a production process within a product cost collector for each line of production with a combination of BOM and Routing. TCode KKF6n. It would generate a order number for each production process.
You can use each order within the PCC for each production line to capture the costs for seperate lines.

Item cost in Bills of material(BOM)

How to see item cost(FIFO, Average) for all raw material when constructing BOM. I feel strange why SAP is calling out from price list since price list consist of purchase cost or selling price rather than actual inventory cost based on inventory valuation method?
Regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
What about using the "Last Calculated Pricelist". Would'nt that carry forward the Valuation Price? You would need to run a "Update Parent Prices Globally" to update the latest Valuation of the Item. Please check on this as I am not 100% sure of it.
So try this as it may work.
- Create a pricelist called "Valuation Pricelist" and base this pricelist on the "Last Calculated Pricelist" and at a factor of 1.
- Set your Components Item's Pricelist as the "Valuation Pricelist" on your Item's BOM.
- Set your Parent's Item Pricelist also to the "Valuation Priclist" on you Item's BOM and click the orange arrow/triangle button to update the "Parent Product Price" value.
- Update the BOM
- Run a full Production cycle and see what your results are and this should have a "Total Variance" (between your "Actual Components Cost" and your "Actual Product Cost") to zero $0.00
If I am correct, this should carry the total components' values over to that manufactured parent's value.
But every time you purchase a component ("Recieve"), you will need to do an "Update Parent Item Prices Globally".
Try this and let me know what your results are.
Thanks

Mass Maintenence of cost relv indicator in the bom

Hi all,
I have a huge number more than 10000 of bom components for which i have to correct / change the cost relv indicator from " " (not relevant) to "X" (100 % relevant).
I think i can do it by cs20. But how??? Shall i have to enter one by one material (component) as an reference object in the initial screen of cs20. OR through one shot I can do it??? HOW??
Regards,
MANISH

Hi
I do not think your problem will be addressed by CS20.
You may have to write small programe to carry out this.

Costing for shearing orders without BOM

The client is into sheet metal stamping. The input materials for pressing are steel sheets in different sizes. Each FG can be produced from only one specific sized sheet.
These sheets are ideally to be procured directly in the required cut sizes. But in case of unavailability of the sheets in the required size, and due to high requirements, these sheets are obtained by carrying out shearing activity. In this, the required cut sizes are obtained by shearing other larger size sheets. Also, some other off-cuts might be produced while carrying out the shearing.
This being the regular scene here, we have defined the sheets as HALB.
But the possibilities of making a particular sheet from the other available sheets are vast. Again from a single sheet many other sheets (as co-products) are possible to be manufactured along with scrap(as bi-product). This makes it impossible to make any BOMs for the particular sheet.
The problem for this scenario is in costing. We can create a order showing the material to be produced, the co-products and the bi-products (All entered manually in order) but we are not sure how the costing will happen.
The material being HALB is given the price control S, and being BOMs are not maintained, the prices are not updated through costing run.
We have tried with both the price controls S and V. In both cases the costs of the materials are not updated through production orders.
Can you suggest some answer as to how the costing of the sheets would happen?

Hi,
As per your issue, you are not maintainnig both Co product and By product in Header BOM. instead your are adding the both material during the prodution order creation.
But Prerequisites is for both, should be defined as line item for Header material Bom.
1.Co product cost will be inclued in production order
For costing of co product u have to defien apportionment structure in material master ,to specifiey how the total costs should be distributed over the main product and the co-products.
2.By product cost will be Deducted from Production order cost.
For details information see the following SAP link,
url=http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/b1/c04fc6439a11d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]Co product & By product[/url]
One more clarrification , for
" This makes it impossible to make any BOMs for the particular sheet" - why, if you shearing a sheet from larger one, u will have stock for required size sheet for Material .... why dont u create BOM...
once u create BOM it will solve your problem. if it usefull reward othrewise ignore

Cost Relevance Indicator default in BOM

Hi All,
The cost relevance indicator is by default X in the BOM. I have defined a new cost relevevance indicator as Y. How can i default the new indicator in teh BOM
Appreciiate your support
Regards
Tehseen

Hi,
Reason of making a new costing relevance indicator.
Our management wants to add 10% extra cost in that is calculated in Quotation. Also the 10% must only be applied on paperboard items of the BOM. The same BOM is used in Quotation and Sales orders. So i have defined a new indicator Y with 110%. I have changed all paperboard items in the BOM as Y. This solution works fine in the Quotations. But when i calculate cost in Sales order, the same 110% get applied on all paperboard cost which we dont want. In sales order we want 100% cost. Both sales order and quotations have diffrerent costing variants. Further please also explain that while i run CK11N, it calculates cost only based on indicator X which is ok. I want the same cost calculation in Sales orders. We are using condition EK02 to calculate cost in Quotation & Sales Orders.
Appreciate your support

PCM 10 Export Cost data via batch processes (BOM model)

Hi there,
Is there a way to schedule batch processes to export PCM Cost data ?
Regards.

Hi,
In fact, the Console utility provided with PCM enables tasks to be run from a console, so no user interaction is required.
It’s initiated by running the PCMConsole program file located by default in the C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\PCM.
Using command-line statements, you can establish “jobs” (or scheduled tasks) to run commands against the various applications at a time of your choice.
You may create the required commands manually, or alternatively, use the Console Wizard utility, which is provided to assist you with generating and correctly formatting Console commands and command files.
The program is run in conjunction with a series of commands and parameters that are executed on the PCM model server. Commands can be run:
• from the command line or
• from within a batch file.

BOM in SAP SRM?

Hi,
Can you please help me answer:
Which possibilities are there to use bills of material (BOMs) in SAP SRM 5.0 or beyond? We are using Material Master data replicated from MM in SRM Extended Classic Scenario?
Is there any documentation available? I have not been able to find any.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Johan

Can 119 phantom asslys at one bom level create problem in product costing

I am going through a scenario where there r 119 phantom assemlies at one bom level. Can this create problem in product costing? It has been told to me by somebody that there can not be more than 99 phantom asslys at one level of bom? Is that true? My problem is that when i am doing product costing it is showing error-" too many dummies at bom level". Is this related to no. of phantom asslys at one bom level?

HI bala,
all the materials are costing relevent. I thik this problem is releteted with no. of phantom assemlies allowed at one bom level.
I had 119 phantom assemlies at bom level 3 of a varient material. At that time it gives me abap runtime error during product costing.
Now I have removed special procurment key 50 from material master of 20 number of phantom asslys. so now there r now 99 phantom assemlies at bom level 3.
I have taken costing run and its not giving error.
so i reached to conclusion that statndard limit of no. of phantom assemlies at one bom level can not exeed 99.
Now customer requires 119 phantom assleys at this level 3 of bom.
So can u suggest me whether i should contact sap to increase this limit for this perticular case?
will they solve my problem or there is any other solution to this?
please reply.

Production consumption variance w.r.t. Costing BOM

Dear Sir / Madam,
Our client is using BOM usage 1 as well as BOM usage 6 i.e., Production BOM and Costing BOM.
Consumption of Raw materials and MRP happens based on the BOM usage 1.
Costing of FG happens using BOM usage 6.
Users want to have a variance report between the actual raw materials consumed v/s the BOM components in the Costing BOM in value as well as quantity basis.
If the costing BOM says 100 components and the production consumption happens for 110 components then the difference must be highlighted to them in the variance report.
We have ML activated. Kindly help.

Hi
1. Create one more costing variant and valuation variant...
The Qty Structure Control in this Costing Variant should refer to Costing BOM
Also, assign this costing variant to Version 1...
2. Run Cost estimate using this Costing Variant and save it in Planned Price 2 or 3 field
3. Create Version 0 and Version 1 for target cost calculation (IMG > CO > Prod Csting > Cost Obj Contr > Prod cost by order > Variance calculation)
Version 0 will be based on Costing variant which releases Std Cost
Version 1 will be based on Valuation variant which releases the cost to Planned Price Field

Issue with update of BOM by Variant Config - Cost relevant indicator

Hi All VC Expert,
We are facing an issue with the update by reference characteristic of the field STPO-SANKA Cost relevancy indicator on the BOM.
We are on SAP ECC 6.0 release 700 on Oracle
Hot Package
- SAPKA70015 on ERP Cross Application componenent
- SAPKH60013 on SAP-APPL Logistics and accouting
We are using material variant
We are on the first level of configuration
Classically, we built a procedure to set X to this data base field as below :
$self.STPO_SANKA = 'X'
We assigned this procedure to the relevant items
Here is the result we have:
At the creation of the Plan Order, this is not working
At the creation of the Prod Order, this is not working
When we do a Reload PP master data, this is working very well
On CU50/VA02 when we check the trace, the procedure is executed.
Do somebody have an idea or already facing this and solve it ?
Thanks in advance for your appreciated help.

Hi Fabien. Did you solve your problem?

Alternate BOM in Sales BOm Costing

Hi,
When we create sales order with alternate sales BOM we face a problem.I am using Alternate BOM 5 in sales order .But Costing is happening for Alternate BOM 1.By default Costing is taking Alternate BOM1 irrespective of alternate BOM i am using in sales order.
At the time of sales BOM costing system should take alternate BOM5 .how to do this?
Regards,
Guru

You can use Mixed Costing for this. Maintain Procurement alternative by CK91 & Mixing Ratio CK94 for the version you want to cost
