Direct & Indirect Breakup after allocation to COPA

Dear All
We have an issue with COPA allocations.
Allocations happen in two steps.
1. Allocation of indirect cost centers such as head office costs  to actual  cost centers(branches)
2. Allocation of costs in the real cost center(Branch) to COPA products.
Here the management wants to know the product cost breakup, of direct and indirect.
However we cannot track the initlal flow of  costs from indirect cost centers to actual cost center once the costs are allocated to the product.
Kindly let us know if anyone has handled a similar situation.
Thanks
Gayani

In the structure you would use a cost element group "All but indirect". This cost element group you should define using two intervalls of cost elements.
If your cost element for the allocation of indirects is say "500000", create the cost element group for "All but indirect" with the intervalls
000001 - 499999
500001 - 999999
The structure would then have to assignments, one for cost element "indirects" and one for cost element group "All but indirects"
Therefore, no updates to the structures are needed when new cost elements are created as long as they within the number range defined in the cost element group

  • What's the diff betweeen Direct & Indirect Activity All

    Hello Experts,
    please lemme know the diff between Direct Activity Allocation & Indirect Activity Allocation.

    Hi Hussein,
    Direct Activity Allocation and Indirect Activity Allocation
    Hi Joshi,
    Direct activity allocation involves the measuring, recording, and allocating of business services performed. To do this, you must create the relevant (measurable) tracing factors (allocation bases which can be used as cost drivers). In Cost Center Accounting these are known as activity types. Activity allocation occurs, for example, when business transactions are confirmed or when posting activity quantities to accounts. The system multiplies the activity produced by the price of the activity type.
    To do so, for the cost centers or business processes involved, you must plan activity types either using prices set manually or using subsequent iterative price calculation.
    If the receiver of the activity allocation is not a cost object (such as, cost center, business process, or internal order), then the following applies: If no price was set manually, then the plan price is used. If you have not executed an iterative price calculation, then the manually set price for the activity type is used for direct activity allocation (the price in the plan/actual (000) version).
    If the receiver of the activity allocation is a cost object (such as, a production order or a product cost collector), then the price used for valuation is determined according to the valuation variant (which is linked to the cost object for the simultaneous costing via the costing variant). If the receiving cost object is not linked to a costing variant for the simultaneous costing, then the plan price for the valuation period is used.
    The service cost center "Plumbers" (1000) performs 2 hours of the activity type "Repairs" for production cost center "H" (5000). The plan price for the repairs activity type is USD 15 per hour. In direct activity allocation, this price is valuated as follows:
    2 hrs X 15 USD/hr = 30 USD
    The u201CPlumbersu201D cost center is credited with this amount and the HI production cost center is debited correspondingly.
    Indirect activity allocation can be used to automatically allocate planned and actual activities.
    You can specify keys to allocate activity, which is not possible when you use manual activity input in the plan or actual activity allocation. In addition, if calculating the sender activity quantities involves too much time or expense, the system can determine the activity quantity inversely based on the activity of the receivers.
    If you execute indirect activity allocation without completing planning for the combination cost center/activity type, you must activate the actual price indicator in the activity type master data.
    A special type of indirect activity allocation for actual allocation is the plan=actual activity allocation. In contrast to other types of indirect activity allocation, the plan=actual activity allocation allows for a multiple level activity network to be determined iteratively with the operating rate as the tracing factor.
    You can choose between two methods of indirect activity allocation, depending on the activity types category. These methods are determined for each segment and can be combined in one cycle.
    Activity quantities can be determined on the sender object:
    For certain activity types you can determine the total activity quantity for each sender. These are category 3 activity types, Manual entry, indirect allocation.
    Using indirect activity allocation, these posted activity quantities are distributed by the senders among the receivers defined in the segment according to their allocation bases. The corresponding segment must use the sender rule Posted quantities. Any receiver rule can be used, with the exception of Fixed quantities.
    The Quality control cost center uses 1000 hours of the Testing activity type. This cost center provides activity for the cost centers Goods receipt and Finished products. Allocations are made on the basis of the tracing factor Number of test items (TI). These are 4000 items for the Goods receipt cost center and 6000 items for Finished products. This corresponds to an activity input of 400 hours for Goods receipt and 600 hours for Finished products.
    The price per activity unit for the Quality control cost center is 50 USD/hr. This results in activity output costs of 50,000 USD. The receiver cost centers are debited with the following costs based on the tracing factor TI.
    Goods receipt: (50,000 USD X 4000 TI) / 10,000 TI = 20,000 USD
    Finished products: (50,000 USD X 6.000 TI) / 10,000 TI = 30,000 USD
    Pls revert back for futher explanation...

  • Video and audio (in one direction only) deteriorate after about 90 seconds

    I begin a two-way video chat as normal, both parties can see and hear clearly. After about one and a half minutes of normal video chat, the person on the other end suddenly starts getting a highly pixelated image of me, and they start to lose chunks of audio from me. Meanwhile I continue to get a very nice clear video and audio from them. We usually end up closing the chat, because they are unable to hear or see me enough to continue.
    The first 1.5 minutes or so is always clear, it starts after that. I always receive good audio and sound from the other party throughout the chat. I have never had problems receiving video/audio.
    It happens with most (but not all) people I connect to. I am in California, and I always have this trouble when connecting to a relative in Connecticut. I have the problem again with one relative in Sydney Australia, but not with a different relative in Sydney. These are just a few examples by location.
    I have repeatedly tested my connection speeds, and I have good up and down speeds - more than the minimum requirements. (My speed today is 8200 kb/s Down, 1309 kb/s up).
    I have also tried:
    Checking my Quicktime settings - (set to 1.5 Mbps T1/Intranet/LAN)
    Bypassing my Airport modem/router, by connecting directly by ethernet to my Comcast cable modem (which has no router built in)
    Replaced the cable modem with a brand new one.
    Changed locations - tried it at a friend's house, still had the same problem.
    So, I think I have isolated the problem to my PowerBook. This PowerBook used to do iChats really well for at least 18 months. I have been having this issue for about 5 or 6 months now. I have no idea what the problem could be. Any tips would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Martin
    My setup:
    ISP: Comcast Cable (Cable modem)
    Apple Airport Exteme Base Station
    Powerbook G4 1.67Ghz, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB HD
    O/S: Tiger 10.4.10
    iChat 3.1.8 (with Chax)
    External iSight camera

    With Comcast.
    Try rebooting the Modem.
    This seems to refresh the connection in some manner.
    Also speak to them. They may not admit any connection management but thing may "magically" get better.

  • Addition of values after allocation logic instead of overwrite 7.50.05 NW

    Hi Gurus
    I am writing an allocation logic where I am allocating some values in a ratio of sales. but there is already some value in the fields i am allocating into and after this logic, the new vales are overwriting the existing one. But my requirement is to add those values in exsting values. Please let me know how to do it.
    as a work around, I am copying the values into a differnt account, then running the allocation on that one and then adding this into the original account. is there any easier way for this.
    Regards
    Swathi

    Hi Swathi,
    Overwriting is the nature of planning. So, not only allocation overwrites results - all planning functions do this. The only exception is if you do multiple calculations in same construct - those will be added. Reason for this is, that user can run same planning function multiple times and you don't want those results to add up.
    So, if you want to summarize what was there before allocation and after you have to have additional Dimension, DataSrc for example, and have values in that Dimension different in existing data and in allocated. This will keep them separate. In report, do not show break-down by that additional Dimension and you'll see total of the old value and the new one.
    Please let me know if this is not what you were looking for.

  • Get the count of number of people reporting to Manager directly/indirectly

    I have the following Manager / Employee hierarchy.
    Manager -> employee
    A -> B (B is reporting to A)
    A -> B -> C (C is reporting to B and B is reporting to A)
    A -> B -> C -> D(D is reporting to C and C is reporting to B and B is reporting to A)
    How can the get the count of total no of person reporting to A either directly or indirectly.
    My count should be like that.
    A -> B (count - 1)
    A -> B -> C (count - 2)
    A -> B -> C -> D (count - 3)
    appreciate any inputs..

    Hi
    You need to run something like:
    SELECT ENAME "Employee", CONNECT_BY_ROOT ENAME "Manager",
    LEVEL-1 "Pathlen", SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(ENAME, '/') "Path"
    FROM EMP
    WHERE LEVEL > 1
    CONNECT BY PRIOR MGR = EMPNO
    this is based on the EMP table and connects every employee to their top-level manager

  • What is the Common Practise of Direct/Indirect Exchge Rate for USD LC in SG

    Dear Experts,
    I am from Singapore and I have customer wants to have local currency in USD Currency, because they have 80% of business transactions are in USD.
    If customer chooses to have local currency which is different with the stay country currency, what should be the suitable Exchange Rate Posting? Direct or Indirect?
    The issue here is when customer gets exchange rate from Bank, Bank will provide them "Direct exchange rate" from Bank's perspective. This "Direct Exchange Rate" is actually Indirect for customer because customer is using USD as LC.
    What is common practise in this type of scenario?
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Lay Chin

    Hi Lay Chin,
    the application uses LC for everything, including exchange rate calculations, reconciliations etc & all financial reporting, including tax, P&L, balance sheet etc. Is it allowed in Singapore to submit such reports in a currency different from the official currency of the country?
    Please note that you will not be able to change the LC/SC setting of the database once you have transactions &/or have exchange rates defined.
    Even though most of the trading is done in USD, wouldn't your customer be happy with having the correct currency as LC & use USD as SC?
    All the best,
    Kerstin

  • Direct X Problem after Parallels Installation!

    This is extremely urgent and any help would be apppreciated!
    I was running Bootcamp with Windows Vista smoothly until I decided to install Parallels 4.0 on my Mac 10.5.8. After installing Parallels, it loaded my Bootcamp installation which sort of freaked me out and so I closed Parallels without doing too much. When I booted Vista today, I tried running games that requried Direct X or enhanced graphics and they are not working! These games used to work fine before I had installed Parallels! I even tried fixing the Bootcamp installation by repairing the drivers through the installation cd that came with Leopard, but I still get the same problem!
    An example: I try running Project64, and it gives me a Direct X error 8876086A, stating that plugins are missing.
    Some games crash back to desktop without any error.
    *Please help!*

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    I admit I never allowed Parallels to use my BootCamp Windows, but this sounds to me like Parallels has somehow altered the state/version of DirectX in your BootCamp Windows, since Parallels only has support for DX 8.1 .
    Have you run a 'DXDiag' to check the DX system on your Vista ?

  • SQL  statement to fetch direct && indirect reportees from cutom table

    Hi All,
    I need to write a query to fetch direct as well as indirect reportees those exists in the hierarchy for a given manager id. I have custom table with two columns emplid,supervisorid.
    For example
    Emplid SupervisorID

    028 030
    030 050
    If I give SupervisorID='050' in the where condition, results should have all of the employees. If I give 025 then output should be 022,113,112,111 similarly for 022 the result should be 112,111.
    Can some body help me in writing SQL select statement?

  • How to find direct & indirect BW hierarchy nodes?

    Hi Group,
    Is there a class or function module that would allow me to find the direct and indirect sub-nodes in a hierarchy?
    For example, I have a time and version dependent hierarchy for company (coming from SEM-BCS).
    I would like to pick a node (node A) and find out all the direct and indirect nodes beneath node A.
    HIEID
    + Node A
    + + Node B
    + + Node C
    + + + Node D
    + Node E.
    So if I input node A, I would get back Nodes B, C and D but not E (E is at same level as A).
    I can loop through the hierarchy tables and find this, but I'm curious if there is an existing FM or method to do this already.  No sense in re-writing existing code.
    Thanks in advance,
    - Chris

    Thanks, that FM is very useful.
    Because the hierarchy I was working with originates in SEM-BCS, I was able to use the BCS master data factory to ultimately get what I needed. 
    The BCS delivered logic can be viewed in CL_UC_SSCR_GENERATE_GUI and method PROCESS_USER_SELECTION.  It uses the BCS selection context + the consolidation group (aka Hierarchy Node) to determine the lower level consolidation groups which must also be provided in the selection criteria when querying data. 
    It's more complex than seems necessary, but it's using the BCS hierarchy data rather than the BW hierarchy data, which is probably a good thing.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Maps Directions not working after upgrading to iOS 5

    So I upgraded to iOS5 and now two things happened:
    It now uses the Chinese version of Google, instead of the international English that I had before. So now I can only see the Chinese street names in Shanghai, instead of both Chinese and English names before.
    The directions do NOT work now!! I tried emailing directions from the site maps.google.com, and they do show up on iPhone Maps. I can even calculate different type of directions (car, walking, public transit) on iPhone of the emailed directions. It just doesn't work with directions created on the iPhone itself.
    I hope somebody can help me with these two problems.
    Thanks!!

    BACK TO ENGLISH AND CHINESE LIKE BEFORE!!!
    YES APPLE OR/AND GOOGLE FIXED IT.
    now works with and without the VPN.

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!
