Extraction of actual cost in the project

hello all,
Kindly suggest if any function module is available to extract actual cost incurred in the project? The actual cost includes the cost of material consumption, activity confirmation, Fi posting. The intention is to get the total actual cost on the WBS at one place.

PS - Report on Planned v/s actual cost of the project

Hi,
I have a client requirement on the above subject. In Report S_ALR_87013542, Under actual cost the system is taking both the Revenue and Actual cost booked on the project. Is there any other report wherein the system shows only the actual cost booked on the project so that planned V/s Actual can be compared.
Rgds,
Prasad

Hi,
You can also refer the report S_ALR_87013543 - Actual/Plan/Variance Absolute/Variance %. This will give the reports based on cost elements. Morever plan cost Vs actual cost can be obtained from Project Infosystem report (CN41/ CNS41).
In fact the report S_ALR_87013533 is a hiecherachical report for plan & actual cost of project.
If the system is calculating wrongly both revenue & actual cost under actual then you need to check Cost elements asignments & value category details.
Hope this will help you.

Actual Cost Posting Into Project

Hi,
I need clarification about actual cost flow into Projects in a typical customer project scenario. The business process is as follows. Projects include engineering, procurement & manufacturing of equirpments. ROH items are procured from external vendors & issued to HALB / FERT for in-house manufacturing. Purchase orders are being created w.r.t. WBSElements & same for production orders also. Please suggest me what will be flow of actual cost posting into WBSElement in this process. Is there any configuration required for this.
Thank you in advance.

ROH items are procured from external vendors & issued to HALB / FERT for in-house manufacturing
You have to use the MM Purchase order functionality, make GR to inventory and issue to the production orders.
Purchase orders are being created w.r.t. WBSElements & same for production orders also.
Ideally you may be better off in recieving, storing and issuing to WBS or production orders
Please suggest me what will be flow of actual cost posting into WBSElement in this process.
You can create WBS for capturing all engineering costs. Procure materials and debit WBs for actual consumption. Create production orders for manufacturing equipments and settle them to the WBS elements.
Is there any configuration required for this.
In order to settle the production orders to WBS, the settlement profile assigned to the order type shall permit WBS elements,

Planned cost in the project

Hi,
I have created a project using Assembly processing with strategy 85. The planned cost of the project per month is say Rs 50,000/- The duration of the project/ internal activity is for 6 Months. The scenario is the planned cost is fixed for each month.i.e Rs 50,000/-. I have maintained 'Plan Price for the period' in the costing variant to get planned cost equally distributed over 6 months. But the report shows (S_ALR_87013532) the planned cost is divided over 6 months (Rs 8,333/- for each month)
Could any one help me in resolving the issue.
Rgds,
Prasad

Hai Shrikrishna
Kindly check in the Costing Tab of the Workcenter which u are referring in the Network Activity.
In the Costing u need to maintain the valid Controlling area , Cost center , Act.type.Int.Processing (Key identifying the activity type used in other types of internal processing in costing like networks) and Formula key for costing (Key which refers to the formula used to determine costs per activity type).
Unless these are not maintained cannot get the Actual costs(not planned).
Based on the hours (planned) mentioned in the workcenter , work to be confirmed(CJ20N/CN25/Cn27) to convert the planned hours into costs.
ENJOY SAP PS.

How to post costs to the project?

Hello
I need to post costs to the project for testing purposes. Please tell me how as I am not PS consultant
Any costs to any period
Thanks

Hi Comandante,
Release Project first, then Execute MIGO transaction.
Selection Goods Issue, against Others.
select movement type 221 Q.
Check the availability of stock for any material in MMBE for same plant which is assigned in the WBSE/Project.
Enter material, qty, WBSE, Plant and storage location and then Issue material. Check the actual cost against WBSE in CJI3.
As suggested by robert, you can post actuals in the project but you have to run more transactions.
Hope this helps you !!

Actual cost at the time of Goods Receipt

Hi All,
When I create Goods Receipt, I am getting actual cost in WBS Element. As per customer request, When I do the Goods Issue then only actual cost has to come to WBS Element.
1. Is it due to statistical cost element cretaed for inventory account (BalanceSheet account)?
2. If statistical cost element not cretaed, will commitment raise?
(Or) Am I missing any configuration settings?
Regards
Suresh

Actual cost in the workplan task screen (hierarchy) not show value.

Hi all,
Could you advice me about actual cost if I want to show in the workplan task screen (hierarchy).
Thank you.

Well, then just check the master data setting in Query designer--> choose 0Costcenter and check the properties > choose advanced tab> under filter value Selection during Query Execution . check for these options
1.Only Posted Values for Navigation
2.Only values in Infoprovider
3.Values in Master data table
4.Characterstic Relationship.
You need to choose the 3rd opitions as you need to read the master tables for 0costcenter.
Hope it helps,

Distributing Actual Costs to the Product Level

We are using Material Ledger at my client and we have some things such as Freight, Depreciation etc. being added to the standard cost as an additive cost. For the actual values for these is it possible to include this in the ML actual cost without having to go through MR22?
Thank you

Hello,
I think you need to rethink the scenario. Freight should have been added to the material cost at the time of procurement and depreciation should flow from cost centers. Another alternate can be that you post actual freight and depreciation both in cost centers , define activity for them , plan them as well and use formula based planning templates to allocate so that they are build up in the cost estimate as well and in actuals they are actualised through the cost center route.

Actual cost value in report CJI3 & s_alr_87100185 report is not matching

Hi,
We are executing the report CJI3 & s_alr_87100185 for month of December.
Values in the both reports are not getting matched.
Please help me...
Regards,
Pradip Shelke

Dear Sam
While using the standard report CJI3 - Project Information System - Actual Cost, choose the column "Business Transaction" and apply a filter for "Not Equal To" KOAO - Settlement.
It will display only the actual cost for the project excluding the settlement line items.
Hope this helps...
