Fixed base overhead calculation on output quantity

Dear Guru's
I want to calculate the overhead @ fixed rate on the basis of output quantity of finished goods.
For the said purpose, I am using quantity based overhead calculation in SPRO. The overhead rate "C110" is being used with dependency D010 (Overhead Type/Overhead Key). Here i have maintained the fixed amount per tonne basis with overhead key "SAP1".
I have maintained the overhead key SAP1 in material master's. But still it's not calculating and not displaying anything in the line items. Also to my surprise, no error is displayed at the time of production order and standard cost estimate.
Please help me on the above issue.
A detailed help stating what possible errors I may have done would be helpful.
Thanks,
Sumit

Hi
Lets assume you choose Output (KG) to absorb the overhead
1. You need to create an Activity Type called PRDOVH and assign it in the PP Work center... Assign the cost element of this act type to a separate cost component in OKTZ
2. While creating the Routing, the Activity Qty = Operation Qty for this Act Type... i.e. If you are creating routing for 100 Units, specify the Act Qty for PRDOVH as 100...
3. The Formula in the work center will be fully variable for this Act Type.. i.e. the Act Qty should change in proportion to the Qty Confirmed....
4. The PP Guys will confirm the operation in PP... This Act Type will also get confirmed along with it
5. Now calculate Act Price KSII as usual and run revaluation... From this point onwards, follow the normla procedure which you follow in month end

Output calculation (on the basis of running hour and quantity)

Dear Guru,
scenario:
we have 6 work center and activity type cost will be calculated on basis of output quantity.
ex : work center 1:activity cost: Rs 100
output :100 nos(quantity)
total cost : 100*100= 10,000
like this we are calculating the cost of every workecnter
required sceario :we want to calculate 4 workcenter cost on basis of output quantity and two on the basis of running hour
please help me where we do the changes .
thanks in advance for your suggestion

Not sure if I understood your query, but based on what little I understand you would need to use a formula which has only duration as parameter & not operation quantity.
Eg: Refer to standard value key - SAP4, which has SAPC00 as a parameter.
Using this you can multiply the cost with the hours irrespective of the operation output.
Do a test in your sandbox & if it meets your need adopt in PRD.

Overhead Calculation not display

Hi,
Please tell me while I do Overhead Calculation through KGI2, inspite of successful posting I cannot find overhead calculation figure which has posted to GL accounts. There is no errors, update successful and I click the icon to get the result but it does not shows line items. As per our scenario we use sales order costing. In sales order level costing is calculated and overhead shows properly as Material overhead, Admin overhead, production overhead ans Sales and Distribution overhead as configured in Cost componenet layout and cost sheet. In costing sheet Material cost is maintained under base as Total Cost. So overhead should calculated on Total cost of Material cost but it calculates on Variable cost. In KP26 I have tested both either fixed and variable cost price. Still it calculate on Variable cost inspite of cost sheet base is maintained on Total Cost. We use % Overhead calculation.
After sales order we prepared production order and final confirmation is made on production order's quantity issued. After that while I run 4 cycle which are Overhad calculation, WIP calculation, variance calculaton and settlment of production order then in first step I found Overhead calculation output does not appear. Even I cannot find any error also. What is the reason ?
Best Regards,
Samrat Roy

Dear,
Check your origin group & material unit of mesaurement is same.
some time in costing sheet origin group is maintain in different unit & for materail it's maitain in other unit of mesaurement.
You can see unit of measure for material in Additional data - unit of measure.
Check BOM component material unit also.
Check same unit of measure is maintain in KZS2
I hope above will useful.

How to configure QTY per TON overhead rate for Output material

Hi,
Kindly advice me how to configure Per TON overhead rate on Output material?
Thanks
Supriya

Hi Supriya,
Whethere the system is calculating Overhead on the basis of Input Raw Materials or on the basis of Output Materials, completely depends on the Cost Element what you assign in the "Base Row".
If it is to be on Qty Consumption of Raw Materials, then, you need to assign the RM Consumption GL Account in the Base Row. If it is to be on the Output Quantity produced, you need to assign the GL which you created for External Settlement (22 category).
*Note: SAP only accounts for input materials and activities with units of quantity for quantity-based overhead that are updated in CO. Assigning the Output Qty GL will help you only for Actual Overhead calculation.*
Pls revert back for further explanation...

Fixed 30 Days calculation for any month..Not working fine when Split Occurs

Hello Everybody,
I am stuck with an issue..which is creating problem when there is a split..in Normal Conditions it's working fine...Kindly help me out on the same.
We have to calculate the Salary on 30 Days fixed basis and not on calender days...
eg For January Salary will be calculated based on 30 days and not on 31 days and for Feb also on 30 days not on 28/29 days..... Every thing is working fine for normal payroll i.e without any splits..
 But if there are any splits in the month then calculation for 2nd split goes wrong ....
 Eg. person is hired on 02feb 2007 and he got re-org on 17 feb 2007 with basic as rs.10000
As per Clients requrement it should be calculated as :
for period 2nd Feb 2007 - 16th Feb 2007 : 10000 * 15/30 : Working Fine in SAP
for period 17th Feb 2007 - 28th Feb 2007 : 10000* 14/30 : Not Working Properly In SAP calculation is done as 10000*12/30
We want it to calculate as 10000* 14/30
Kindly let me know wat can be done :
1 How can i write PCR..if that needs to be change
2. If user exit then how shall i go about the same
if some body has any 3rd option let me know...

Cost center planning for overhead calculation

Gurus,
I have a doubt regarding the cost center planning for overhead calculation.
My scenario is:
There is a service cost center from which a certain percentage I want to allocate to the products as overhead. Now while doing so I have created a cost center and a cost element of type 43 (internal activity allocation). This cost element is the base for overhead calculation. Also I have created one cost element of type 41 (overhead rates). I have defined the credit (of cost sheet) with the cost element of type 41 and the cost center as mentioned.
Now I am facing a problem while planning the cost center with cost element type 43 through KP06.The system is throwing the error message: 'Cost element xxxx can only be used for activity input'. My understanding is we must carry out the planning for the cost center to allocate a certain percentage to the product cost estimate. If I am not allowed to use the cost element of type 43 to plan, what should I use for the planning?
Request your suggestion.
Thanks in advance!
Snigdho.

Hi
Since you mentioned catg 43 cost element, I thought you are using Activuty Type
To apply overhead on the product during CK11N, you need not plan any value on the cost center... The values planned in the cost center can not be used as a BASE in your costing sheet....
It goes like this
1. Your cost estimate has BOM + Routing
2. So, the cost elements that you would see during CK11N, can be broadly classified into 3 types
a. Primary cost ele - Material Consumption accounts for BOM components
b. Secondary cost ele (Catg 43) - If you use any actvity type in the routing
c. Secondary cost ele (Catg 41) - These cost elements are parasites... They need some basis to calculate the overhead value... That basis can be either the (a) or (b) above.....
I think, what you are planning to do is Plan Primary cost ele in a cost center and trying to use the same as the Basis.. That wont work!
What you need to do is
a. PLan the values in the cost center, say, 100,000 USD
b. Absorb it on the basis of 2.a or 2.b
If 2.b is not applicable in your case, since you are not using activity types, then 2.a is the Only option left for you
Hope it is clear....

Overhead calculation not happening after using Overhead key and orgin group

overhead calculation not happening after using Overhead key and orgin group.
There was a runtime error earlier related to u201Cdefine credit u201C IMG node under costing sheet component and we have applied SAP note 769946 and that error was gone out of the way
We want to apply/add Overhead to SFG/FG materials.
We are using PP order with PCC(product cost collector) as the cost object , i.e costing by period.(system ECC 6)
But our problem is with material standard cost estimate process.
We have assigned overhead keys to the percentage rates in costing sheet for material standard costing and assigned the origin groups to the credits of costing sheet. But after running the cost estimate overhead is not taking into account for standard cost calculation.
In the define credit entry table key field is valid to date strangly and actually system should allow one than one entry with same valid to date and same sec.Cost element(type-41) for different cost centers.
But if we without using overhead key and origin group, the entire cost in that supporting cost center will come to all materials (SFG/FG) and we can not distinguish between different product materials(SFG /FG).
We have checked all things as mentined below.
Firstly that the correct costing sheet is assigned to the valuation
variant.
That the costing sheet is entered for the appropriate material type:
Finished and semi finished or material components.
All of the above can be checked and verified via transaction OKKN.
In addition make sure that the base value maintained is present in the
costing, for example the base may include an Origin group, is that
origin group part of the materials being costed?
Similarly if the base is found and values exist how is the overhead
rate of the costing sheet set up, is it valid etc.
And finally do a similar check for the credit.
we doubt this as a programm error...
So, request all experts to have ur feedback..

Dear,
Check your origin group & material unit of mesaurement is same.

Actual overhead calculation

Dear Friends
During project execution, system always checks for the budget availability (Availability control is configured). For material & services, system will check availability on GR/IR quantity & service acceptance. The I'll have to run CJ44 for overhead calculation. I just want to know, is there any way that CJ44 can execute automatically, once you do GR/IR & service acceptance with respect to network activity? Or can we configure it to run periodically (May be twice a day) in the background?
Thanks

Hi,
goto CJ44>system>status> pick the progrma name>SM36>enter job name>click on step>enter the program name and variant save it and back>click start condition> enter specific dates and save it>click on job selection enter the job name which is already created and execute...

Changing base for calculation of Tax

Hi All,
SAP standard delivers 0001 condition type in Tax calculation procedure as base for calculation of Tax. condition type 0001 picks up 0PR0 as base for calcualtion of tax. Can someone tell me how does system picks up 0PR0 as base for calculation of tax as i have to change the base of calculation.
Any hint would be a great help.

I think I had the cart before the horse on this problem. The correct way to look at this is what is the best way to get the correct "Net Book Value" and not the correct tax depreciation posting as it never actually gets booked.
By knowing the incorrect Beginning BV, the rate depreciation is applied in year 1 and finally the desired Net BV value at the end of year 1 for tax purposes I am able to calculate the correct Unplanned Depreciation for tax to make everything work out correctly.
correct beginning tax BV $1,200
Beginning Asset Book Value $1,800
depreciation $360 (20% of BV)
Unplanned depreciation $?
Net BV for tax at end of Yr1 $960 ; or 1,200 - (1,200*.2)
With the know values above that makes my unplanned depreciation for Yr 1 to be $480. Year 1 and all following years depreciate correctly after the Unplanned Depreciation is posted.
I am marking this as resolved unless someone sees an error in my thinking.
Thanks,
Jeff

Wrong base amount calculation for entry tax

Hi,
We want to capture entry tax in PO with condition type ENT1. The issue appearing for the condition is that the Base value calculated to calculating the ENT1 is (Base Value + Excise + 2 * VAT). Where as the propser calculation should be (Base Value + Excise + VAT).
For example -
Base Value - 1000
Excise (BED + ECS + SECESS) - 10.3
VAT (4%) - 4
Sub Total - 1014.30
Entry tax (2%) - 20.29
Where the entry tax getting calculated is 20.37 considering VAT as 8 (2 * 4). We want the entry tax as 20.29.
How can we achieve this?

Hi Vikas,
Please check in OBQ3 what is the "From" field of JEC1 and JSEP. This should be the step denoting JMOP.

Problem in overhead calculation of production order after TECO

Dear All,
Just for reconfirmation can you tell me what is the actual sequence of steps used in Closing of Production order i.e
First we have to do TECO of an order and then we have to calculate Overhead.(KGI2).
I am asking this question because i have observed that order which are get TECO before Overhead calculation, if you see the cost analysis, system will not update overhead value in order and the difference get posted in Variances after settlement.
If we have to do vice versa then there will be the problem as user do the TECO of an order as an when production order completed, overhead calculation is the work of costing department and they will do it at month end only hence system will always post variance for the overhead value.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Shayam

Hi,
Normally, you need to check the transactions allowed when the status TECO is set. However, status is set only when the sequence of the steps are completed during month end. Transactions like the WIP, variances, settlement etc as you may have bach jobs running to set the status.
Kind Regards

GL ASSIGNMENT OF ACTUAL OVERHEAD CALCULATION

Dear Gurus,
for actual overhead calculation, i go through transaction CO43.So just after executing for the plant based on the period, system automatically post all the orders to the specific GL a/cs. so i want to know where the exactly GL assginments happen, so that the system automatically post to those specific GL a/cs.
Kindly suggest asap.

Hi,
The automatic assignment is normally done through OKB9 for a cost Center; Order, Profit Center.
