Costing run for material - std. cost estimate

Hi all,
The scenario is as below:
I have a material (halb). I have maintained a BOM. Now, i donot have a routing, but i just use a reference operation set.
In this case, when i run the standard cost estimate (t code CK11N), the master data is read. But, since no routing exists, so the activity costs wont be read. So what should be done in this case, so that the costs as per the activity in ref. operation set is also captured?
Shrenik

Shrenik,
If the Referance Operation Set is standard and same is going to be used always, please enter that details of the Ref. Opn Set in the costing 1 view of the material master under Quantity structure data.

Costing run for materials with special procurement key

Hello,
Since moving to ECC6, the costing run for materials with special procurement keys is not pulling the marked price from the materials the special procurement keys point to. Only the released prices are pulled.
Example:
Material A, plant A has a future price (costing 2 tab) of 100 and a current price of 99
Material A, plant B has special procurement key Z1 (costing 1 tab) which pulls the costing from Material A, plant A
In our old system (46c) the costing run for Material A, plant B would pull 100.
In ECC6, the costing run for Material A, plant B pulls 99
Anyone that can push me in the right direction?

Hi,
Based on the info provided thus far, the result that you notice in ECC 6.0 is right as it is picking the current standard price based on your setup.
Now why it is picking the future price in 4.6c, well for that you will have to do a detail check as in which variant is being used etc. I would suggest you to work with your CO personnel on this. Do a costing run for this particular material via CK11n using the variant which you mentioned & see the results.
Or if you can upload the screenshots (picasaweb or some other portal) of the valuation variant you're using in 4.6c, along with Acctng view 1 & 2, costing view 1 & 2 details of the material it would help to have a better understanding.

Costing run for a material with alternative BOM

Hi Friends,
My requirement is to have product costing for a material with 3 different BOMs, in CK11N i can change the alternative BOM number to have costing run for 3 differesnt boms, but in ck24 how to proceed, My client requirement is such that the standard price should be the average price of the costing run from 3 different boms, and they are not interested in manual price change in MR21
Regards,
Arun Kumar R V

Hi Arun,
You can have a Standard cost estimate based on only one of the alternative BOM and Routing. This alternative is selected based on the business ie., whichever alternative is generally used in production frequently. This will be the std cost and whenever you do the production using the other alternatives, the difference in cost will be captured as Variance.
There is no option of having average or cost estimate for each alternative at the same time.
There is absolutely no use in maintaining price in MR21 for an in house produced material, since during Prod Order process the planned costs will be arrived at based on the quantity structure of BOM & Route only.

Costing run for the material in Physical distribution Plant

Hi experts,
There's a material both creates in productoin plant 1000 & physical distribution plant 1999. (same material number)
However, BOM & routing only create in prodution plant 1000.
How do we copy BOM & routing (in prodution plant) for the material creates in Physical distribution Plant and excute costing run for it? (we need to excute costing run every month, so standard cost for the material in productoin plant 1000 & physical distribution plant 1999 needs to be the same every month.)
Thanks in advance.

HI AO
1. There is no standard feature to copy the BOM/Routing from Plant 1 to 2...
While creating in PLant 2, you can give the reference of Plant 1.. Or you can use some BAPIs to do the same
2. If you want same std cost in Plant 2 as in Plant 1, then easier way would be to create a Special Procurement Key and assign the same in Material master - Costing View of Plant 2 (1999)
Follow the steps below
1. Go to OMD9
2. Click on New entries: Enter your Plant = Plant 2 (receiver plant) "SP Pr Type" = Z1 and Proc Type = F;
3. Under Special Procurement Secrion
Enter U as special procurement and Plant 1 in the Plant Field (Transferring plant)
4. Save this entry, and in Mat Master of Plant 2, specify Z1 as Special proc key in Costing view (NOT MRP VIEW)
5. Run CK11N in Plant 2... and release from CK24

Extractor 0CO_PC_PCP_03: diferent costing runs for the same material

Hi, experts.
We are extracting data with 0CO_PC_PCP_03 extractor, but some materials do not return any record.
If we use CO standard transactions, we can get the values for all materials, but with the extractor just few materials are returned.
We are filtering the extractor with the costing run name and costing run date, but some materials are not extracted.
This is occurring for a specific month only. We have extracted data for other months / costing runs and the same materials appears in CO transaction and in extractor result. The different thing with this problematic month is that there are other costing runs of the same type (costing variant), for a higher date.
It seems like the extractor just can extract the last costing run for a material / month. Any idea?
Thanks,
Henrique Teodoro

Hello,
I have an update in my findings. Few days ago, R/3 user ran a new costing run for a set of materials, using the same costing variant / costing version used one year ago. And now, when I extract the costing run created one year ago, materials present in recently run set don´t appear anymore. I ran this same costing run weeks ago and the material are ok. After the new costing run with the same costing variant / costing version, they are gone from extraction.
Seems like this extraction just can return the last costing variant / costing version for each material. Or maybe the table key that stores this data are costing variant / costing version, instead of costing run / costing run date.
Anybody have any knowledge or experience on this?
Thanks,
Henrique

Costing Run for all Hub Plants

I just want to understand from you regarding your Monthly Costing Run for all Plants.Actually we have Plant 5000 (Ruwais) which is our Manufacturing Plant having BOM.
We have two other Plants 7000 ( Shanghai ) and 7100 ( Singapore ) these are our Hub Plants not Manufacturing Plants and having no BOMs.
When we run our Monthly Costing Run for Plant 5000 using TCode (CK40N), its completes smoothly without any error.
We have to create a material cost estimate in monthly basis using TCode (KKPAN) before we execute cost estimate for both Plants 7000 & 7100.
We see these runs at the months end as very time consuming and we are not manage on time set for such update in SAP as part of the month end procedure.

Hello Yasir,
In our system I see that PC01 and PC02 are the same for cross plant costing:
1 - Future Cost Estimate - valid for fiscal year
2 - Current Cost Estimate - no age restriction
3 - Previous Cost estimate - no age restriction
If your system is set this way, then for cross plant costing, it does not make a difference which one you use.
If all plants are in one company code then the currency should be the same in all, so P rate should not be an issue.
Take one part number: What period and FY is your current cost estimate? What are the validity dates?
go to CK11n, input the part number; hub plant number and create cost estimate.
On the Tab "QTY STRUCT." you should see only Special procurement data, the plant number should be the mfg plant.
Look at the Costing Structure. Top level should be the part in hub plant.
The first level below should be the part in the mfg plant.
theTosts should be the same and I would expect it to be the same as the current cost estimate. (Pay attention to the currency)
If the first level from the mfg plant is not the same as the current cost estimate, you will need to figure out where that cost estimate is coming from.
If you would like to send screen shots of your cost estimate screens, give me your e-mail and I will contact you with pictures of what I expect to see.

Costing run for co-product

Hi friend,
I have 5 different finished materials each having 2 same co-products. i could do the costing run for the finished materials, but how to the costing run and standard cost estimate ( i.e ck11n and ck40n) for the 2 co-products. the co-products does not have BOM and routing.
Regards,
Arun kumar R V

Hi
Sub Co-Product will be costed based on 'Apportionment and Source structure' which is maintained in Main Co-product material master.
For example material 'A' has two co-products 'B' and 'C'.
BOM and Routing will be maintained for material 'A' only.
(BOM will contains 'Rawmaterials as well as co-products')
In Material Master of 'A' we have to maintain how to apportion this Qty structure of A to B and C also.For which we required source structure which is need to create in IMG.

User Exit for Material Plan Costs

I have an escenario where the client needs another option to calculate the material plan costs, but need to identify the correct user exit.
In transaction OKYF exist the option "U Valuation Price with User Exit" but need the user exit to use.
Hope to receive information soon...
Best Regards...

Hi
you can use unit costing for material option for this...
Automatic netowrk costing for material component
you need to maintain proper costing variant for material component in config.
in projects assign material then select material -edit - cost - unit costing.
which will get reflected in network cost in CJ40.

Creating Costing Run for Multiple Plants

Hi,
Is it possible to create a costing run for multiple company codes in a controlling area, instead of creating separate costing runs for each company code?
Thank-You

Christian,
I understood it and my answer is for different company codes.I did it for one of my client.
Let me review the scenario on system.
Traci,
I will get back to you on this by Tuesday(2nd March).
Thanks.Ashok

Costing Block for Material

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem, when I am costing one material thru T-code CK11N, Following error is coming "Costing blocked for material: CXXXXXX001.
Posting not possible. Do you want to cancel? Threre is no do not cost at the plant level, there is no deletion flag, There is no block in source list, there is no block in X plant sp material status in material master.
What may be the reasons, kindly help me. Full points for helping answers.
GR

Your most likely problem is that somebody else was working on the material at the same time - then you cannot lock it for updates.
Wait until the person is finished with the change, and try again later.
Or ask a friend in basis to look at the lock entries on the material master and find out who is locking the material.

Costing items for material 21000001 in plant 204A without cost element.

Dear Friends,
Kindly suggest solution to below problem,
Costing items for material 21000001 in plant 204A without cost element.
Message no. CK597
Diagnosis
The itemization for material 21000001 in plant 204A contains valuation-relevant items without a cost element.
System Response
The costs of these item(s) cannot be included in the cost component split. This means that there will be inconsistencies between the cost component split and the itemization.
Procedure
Check the log for further system messages for material 21000001 in plant 204A. Correct the error and carry out costing again.
Thanks

Thanks
The error has been resolved..
In master data itself.
For co-products , the version category was not maintained.
Moreover in BOM,
The items which were coproducts were not Ticked as co product.

Cost Run for Raw Material taking Standard Price instead of Moving Price

Hi all,
We ran a material costimate with normal components FG>SFG>RM. The RM price Control is set to
V (Moving Average Price) and for SFG & FG it is S(Std. Price). After we run CK11N, the price for
RM in Material Master changes as per Moving Price. We found that the RM Component is
costed based on Standard Price and not on the previous cost run Moving Average Price. After
certain period, if we again do cost run, the sytem is again picking up the standard price for costing
not the revised Moving Price. We have checked the Valuation Variant in the Costing Variant, where the strategy given is 1. Moving Average Price 2. Standard Price. We also tried to change the
sequence as 1. Price as per Purchase Info Record 2. Moving Average Price and 3. Standard Price and
also 1. Standard Price and 2. Moving Average Price. Our requirement is when we run the cost estimate the raw material has to pick the price of previous moving price stored in the Material Master. Kindly tell us where to set the indicator.
Thanks,
Sadashivan

Hi Srikanth,
Problem solved. I checked the sequence in Valuation Variant and modified in Valuation Variant for Plant which I have not set previously and now the system is working correctly.
Thanks,
Sadashivan

Costing Run for Configurable Material

Hi,
When I try to run costing run CK40N for KMAT material, I am geting information "No materials selected" for the 'selection' flow-step.
Below is the Error description.
No materials selected
Message no. CK277
Diagnosis
Due to the costing variant used, no materials could be selected for the cost estimate.
System Response
No materials were selected.
Procedure
1. First, check that the materials you want to cost exist.
2. Then go into Customizing and check the costing variant, the reference variant, and the transfer control. If the plant changes, a suitable transfer strategy must be entered in the transfer control belonging to the reference variant.
Thanks in Advance,
Shiva

hi Shiva,
It is not possible to do the cost calculation for configurable materials in CK40N or CK11N.
To do the product costing it is mainly required the BOM and Routing, but in case of configurable materials the BOM and Routing are not fixed(here Super BOM/Super Routing are used with valid object dependencies which may result in "n" number of material variants)
To do the costing for configurable material you can use t code - CU50 (configuration simulation)
Here in CU50 you can select the characteristics values which ultimately selects the valid BOM and Routing required for variant production and do the costing and check.

On costing run, Raw material price in Std price field is getting updated

Hi All
When i am executing costing run (CK40N) for a FG, the price field in Std price for a raw material is getting updated.
We are maintining price control as "V" in case of raw material.
Is this right? if not, how can this be avoided.
Regards
Rakesh Hase

HI Ian,
Given enough time and money, anything is possible....
You do not say which industry you are operating in. In some SAP industry solutions the functionality you describe is available - if I remember correctly IS Mill Product has something like that. It is available for use by companies that for example make copper cable. They get a regular copper price from an exchange.
But it would be relatively simple to get a feed from an exchange with the daily closing price, and then write a little program that will read that file and post an MR21 transaction to update the price.
