Driver used in cost distribution

Hello everybody,
Once cost from cost centers has been distributed to activities, i want to know from which resource driver the cost has been allocated. its possible obtein this information?
Thanks
Regards

Yes, you can use the gridvalue called "ActivityValue"
ActivityValue is dimensioned by Line item / Responsibility Center / Resource Driver / Activity
Using ActivityValue you can show which line-item costs are allocated through which activity driver to which activities.
p.s. the ActivityValue shows costs on activity level before any reallocation/reassignments took place, so they can be different then the SummaryActivityValue.

Infoset query of vendor payments at the cost distribution level

We would like an infoset query of vendor payments at the cost distribution level of the document. The issue seems to be joining vendor to the document cost distribution lines.
1.) BSAK + BSIK can be combined with an infoset data structure but only contain the vendor line of a document; the cost distribution lines are not in the tables.
2.) BSIS + BSAS can be combined with an infoset data structure but lack vendor data and joins (to a vendor source) are not an option with data structures. Vendor data added with an additional field is too slow to be a primary selection field.
3.) Logical data base KDF in an infoset returns only the vendor line of a document, not the cost distribution lines.
4.) Logical data base BRM in an infoset can have vendor from BSAK/BSIK attached by an additional field but performance is too slow to be useful. Joins are not an option in a logical data base infoset.
5.) Complete data is lacking when table joins between document cost distribution tables and vendor data tables are possible, (SPL actual line item table & BSIP or FMIFIIT & FMIFIHD). BSIP lacks AB documents (reversals). FM tables lack general ledger only documents.
6.) BSAK and BSIK together have complete vendor data but joins of both to a basis table do not work well. Left outer joins are too slow, inner joins won’t work since the tables have mutually exclusive data.
It would be ideal to have vendor in BKPF, like FMIFIHD has, but it isn't a field.
Does anyone know of any other options? I have seen the helpful thread on How to Read BSEG Efficiently

Cost distribution SRM to R/3 - based on VALUE

Hi all,
We are working on SRM 5.0 and R/3 4.7.,ECS
In shopping cart when the cost dsitirbution is sleected as "VALUE",when the corresponding SRM PO replicates to R/3,the cost distribution always changes to percentage/quantity....Why is that R/3 system recognises the cost distribution only for quantity or percentage???
Also we are now upgrading iur R/3 system to ECC 6.0.Is the above issue resolved in ECC or still persists in ECC 6.0 too???
Has anybody encountered the above issue??Please share experiences.

I am curious as to if you got this resolved. When we upgraded, I was hoping that we would finally get to use distribute by value between SRM and SAP without it converting over to percentages. I have worked with OSS and the discussion forum to come up with a resolution but no luck yet.

Transferring data to new (replacement) hard drive using time machine

My MacPro has crashed and after replacing the motherboard with no improvement, Apple thinks I will likely need a new hard drive. The cost of new drive and labor to install it is covered by Apple Care, but not for the technician to transfer to the new hard drive all the software data installed subsequent to purchase.
I have Time Machine on a second hard drive. Assuming that this drive is OK, can I transfer the data myself from Time Machine opened at a point before computer crashed?

Hi V.K., was just reading your instructions for jumper25 about transferring all info to a new HD and had a question. I am in the same situation where i have bought a new 320Gb to replace the OEM 120Gb in my MBP. Everything is very straight forward from what you have posted but i only have the original Tiger 10.4.9 install DVD and I am running Leopard 10.5.5. Will I be able to use my Tiger install disk and then use my TM back up even though it Leopard? Or will I need a Leopard install disk to complete? Also is there another way around this problem if i can not use the Tiger disk such as mirroring the 120Gb disk on to my 320Gb?
Thanks in advance for your time and expertise.

Cost distribution in Extended classic scenario

Hi All,
We are in SRM 4.0 using extended classic scenario.
When we create a purchase order with cost distribution, it gets copied to backend system. But the partial invoice field in backend PO is always having the value "Distribution in sequence".
In configuration for account assignment category, it has been defaulted to "Distribute proportionately".
When we checked with SAP they told that for SRM POs it will always be distribute in sequence. It has to be distributed while posting MIRO. This value is hardcoded in SRM PO transfer program. It is very strange and moreover this is a essential functionality which needs to be in SRM.
Any one using extended classic scenario, could you please tell me how you are handling multiple account assignments?
Please help me.
Thanks,
Arun

Friends,
If you are using cost distributions in extended classic scenario, then could you please check and let me know the value that you are getting in the "Partial Invoice" field in Account assignment tab of backend PO.
Please help.
Thanks,
Arun

Diff in IT 0027 and IT 1018 ie.. Cost Distribution

Hello Experts,
My Earlier thread is not found.... so opening another thread........ ( My Question was about -> What is the diff between IT 1018 and IT 0027? If anyone could explain with an example would be great)....
Correct me if i am wrong, from the earlier replies i got an impression of..... we use IT 1018 if we want to distribute costs at the level of position or org unit...... and IT 0027 if we want to distribute by employee.....
I saw for the IT 0027 subtypes like Wage/Salary, Travel Expenses, Planned Cost Distribution, Planned Effort etc.,.
Can anyone explain me with an example in what scenarios will we be using each of thse subtypes.....
Also, what would be the functionality if IT 1018 and IT 0027 in case of concurrent employement???
All inputs are appreciated......
Thanks,
Janga K.

Cost distribution on infotype 15

We have our cost distribution assigned to our positions; we do not use IT0027. In some cases, we want certain types of payments to be posted to a specific cost center and fund. We enter these payments on IT0015. When I try to use the maintain cost assignment on the infotype, I get the following message:
"Account assgn Functional Area is active in HR on 09/06/2009 and must therefore contain a value"
The functional area is also set up on the cost distribution at the position level. What are we missing that is preventing us from using this functionality on IT0015?
Thanks in advance for the guidance!!

Thanks.
The functional areas are defined using transaction PO13, infotype 1018, field FKBER.
I removed the cost distribution on the position and left only the account assignment, IT1008, on the position. I tried entering the cost distribution on IT0015 with and without an IT0027, and I receive the same error message as before.

Cost distribution within the group companies

Hi Experts ,
Need your thoughts on what would be the best approach for the scenario explained below :
We have a parent company and three other companies within the group. In total 4 company codes. There are some expenses which are booked under parent company and should be later (at month end ) to be distributed at fixed % to the other 3 companies within the group as during the time of entry it is not feasible to separate the transaction at co code level or is time consuming activity. In what way we can distribute such cost and ensure it reflects in FI reporting also so that P&L shows correct distributed values. Also there are some assets which are commonly shared by all the assets so the depreciation also needs to be shared with the companies in the group. ECC 6.0 being implemented . I tried using distribution but is not giving desired result.
Thanks
Sunil

Hi Sunil Mane,
What cost objects distribution between different company codes?
T-CODE:OKKP Have you selected cross-company-code cost accounting? I think this is a preconditon of cost distribution between different company codes.

Hours not populated in the Table C1 (Cost Distribution) in Time Evaluation

Hi All,
I am entering Time info along with the Reciever Cost Center, Internal Order and other info in the CATS Time sheet and transferring the saved details to HR Time Mgmt & CO. Later when I run Time Evaluation (PT60 using schema TM00) for the person his Cost Distribution info is getting populated in the Table C1.
Then when I go to the Time Evaluation Results Table (B2 Cluster) thru transaction PT66 and want to check the details for the employee under C1. I see all the Reciever Cost Center, Internal Order info. I double click on the TReciver Cost Center to see how many hours getting charged to it, it shows 0.000
even thogh I had entered 4.00 hours against the Reciever Cost center in CATS.
Can someone direct me in a step by step way as to how to overcome this anamoly.
Your suggestions are highly welcome.
Regards,
Aslam

Hi,
I hope you are using transaction CATA to transfer to HR and Controlling.
When you transfer entries from CATS to HR to which Infotype the hours get transfered?
Could you clarify me on this?

Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail.

Hi
I got an e-mail stating that Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail, and that mine was one that may fail and to book an appointment with Genius to click here. So after making an appointment we then took out iMac to the shop affixing thirty minuets before appointment time and had to Waite until 12-45hrs. When we were told that we would have to leave the Mac with them for two to three days to replace the hard drive.
Can anyone advise, is this normal to make an appointment only to find that when you get to the Genius department in the Apple shop they then say because of the amount of iMacs that have come in today it will take days to replace?

Hi mende1
Thanks for replying but when anyone makes an appointment surely the work should be carried out then not to be told to come back days later especially when you have traveled over one hundred and fifty miles to get to the shops. It may have been a free replacement but the cost of petrol for the journey comes to more than one hundred euros.

Hide Cost Distribution button in SRM SC screen

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement where in we need to hide the cost distribution,copy to clipboard,etc..buttons in the cost assignment section of shopping cart screen . we are using SRM 5.0
Is there a way where we can make this invisible without making any changes to the standard code.
Any Help in this regard will be highly appreciated
Regards
Vidya
Edited by: Vidya Pankaj on Oct 27, 2009 12:21 PM

Implement BADI BBP_UI_CONTROL_BADI method BBP_SC_UI_CTRL for Object type BUS2121.
Do a check on the iv_fieldname parameter and set the cv_invisible and cv_input_ready to the value you need.
The fieldname for the distribution is called GV_DIST_IND (to get you started).

Costing run of SFG and FG by using 2 costing variant In Same c codeandplant

Dear CO Experts,
I Have Semi Finished Goods (SFG) and Finished Goods (FG)
At the time of Costing Run I don't want to add Admin& Selling Distribution Expenses for SFG.
For FG, I want to add Admin& Selling Distribution Expenses. So I created 2 Cost sheets and Assigned to 2 Costing Variants through 2 Valuation variants.
For Example
SFG Cost Sheet1
Material                       100
Internal Activity Cost       10
SFG Cost                    110 (By using 1st Costing Variant)
FG Cost Sheet2
Material                         10
SFG                            110
Internal Activity                5
                                   125
Add: Admin& Sd Exp      25
(125*20/100)             -
FG Cost                       150 (By using 2nd Cost Variant).
How to run Mark and Release in Same Perid two costing variants. Please give you valuable inputs.
Thanks&Regards

Hi!
To determine an overhead percentage rate using the overhead key, you
need to
1. assign a costing sheet to your order or valuation variant for
     costing.
2. enter in the assigned costing sheet, overheads that use the overhead
     key field. based on over head keys, over head rates can be defined.
3. assign the overhead key to an overhead group.
4   enter the overhead group in the material master record for the
     material to be produced.
I think the above process will work for you.
