Fixed & Variable cost of the Material at CK11N

Hello Experts,
Before posting this thread, i have gone through several threads about my query. Still I have a doubt.
Material Cost always should be Variable. Cost Component Structure OKTZ also the Inventory Valuation would be Variable Cost as per as Std SAP.
But where as the Raw Material Price control would be "S" & the Cost Component Structure of OKTZ having Inventory Valuation Fixed + Variable Cost then what would be the effect..?
I have run a SCE for a Material & both Material having standard price 140.6 & 1.09. Then how come the Fixed Value shows here as 10.37 & 0.9 & How can it be divided into Total & Fixed Value..?
Regards
Raj

Dear Raj,
Please check the following settings in OKTZ:
Materials are of 3 types:
Finished: Valuation (Fixed + Variable)
Semi Finished:Valuation (Fixed + Variable)
Raw Materials: Variable
Why Inventory Valuation (Fixed + Variable) for Finished Goods:
It contains material price as well as overheads.
Overheads may contain fixed portion also in addition to variable nature.
So Finished goods valuation should be (Fixed + Variable).
For Raw materials valuation should always variable:
You can make the settings in OKTZ as mentioned below:
Please check these settings and change the settings accordingly.
Hope this will helps you.

Update of cost in the material master

Hi all,
From the purchasing point of view,In the normal process Cost in the Material master gets updated from purchasing documnents automatically.In this case,manually if the cost is changed in the purchase order affects the cost in the material master.My requirement is this should be done automatically after receiving the vendors confirmation of list of material costs.There may be chance of change in the cost of the materials.so the costs of the materials which were changed should get updated in the material master automatically(VPRS).
Ie changing of the costs of the materials in the purchase order should be reduced .How this will done??
If we have more than 2000 line items in the purchase order,it will be quite little bit difficult to update each material cost in the purchase order .
Thanks in advance..
Regards...VM

Hi,
Normally material will be valuated with two types of price controls S -standard price and V-moving avaerage price.
A std price as its name indicated it is std and will not chnage.
A moving average price will chnage accordingly with the change in the material price.
Normally it will be better create a info record for the material and vendor combination for the plant or purchase organisation with a info update indicator in the purchase order will serve your pupose .
With the proper settings at SPRO system creates info record during creation of PO if it does not exist or updates the existing record if it has one with the latest price details in the form of last purchasing document so that these details get defaulted during creation of PO.
However you can create a outline aggrement so that a PO can be created with reference to that.
Or you can create a condition record for the price for your combination so that it can get defaulted.
The price which is there in PO will not be defaulted to material master.
Or time to time you can review the prices and maintain via MR21.

Inclusion of planned cost to the material while Invoicing

Hi Everyone,
We are facing a problem, kindly guide me to solve it:
We are purchasing 'X' Material (split valuated) through a Purchase Order in which we did not provide any planned cost.
But after GR we came to know that planned cost should also have been entered in the PO. But in the PO, while creation we did not select any planned cost line for the item. So after approval of PO and GR, we were not able to enter any planned cost.
Now while adding up planned cost during Invoicing through MIRO, we are facing an error message:
Error saving valuation data for material P1S002 0002
Message no. M8829
Diagnosis
Error occurred when the system tried to save the valuation data.
Please guide me how to do invoicing by including the planned cost and booking the planned cost in the material.
Thanks and Regards

How to add the purchasing overhead costs to the material costs

Hi,
I have a requirement to add the purchasing overhead costs like transportation costs to the material costs so that the costs is added to the material costs and update my material price accordingly.
Can u tell me how to do it for both standard price and MAP price?

Hi,
Please attach a accrual key in customization (Pricing procedure) to the overhead condition type you use.

Fix custom cost in the billing document.

The client wants to add a fix custom cost for some of their customers in the invoice. Normally in the SAP system one delivery document and one invoice is created per purchase order number of the customer entered in sales order. Purchase order number is a splitting criteria. But several sales order items can be shipped at once . In the system for 5 different sales orders of the same customer 5 different delivery documents and 5 different invoices are created but they want to combine them and print one invoice and in the invoice they want to include the fix custom cost for the specific customer. Now they combine several sales orders of the same customer in one delivery note and invoice manually in excel without printing from SAP. How can they add fix price in the invoice and combine these 5 different invoices in one invoice when printing?

Go to copy control VTFL, select your delivery type and billing type and click on magnifying lens on top left. There maintain as follows:-
Copying requirements:::::: 003
Determ.export data::::::::::blank
Assignment Number::::::::blank
Next select your item category there and maintain the following routines
Copying requirements:::::004
Data VBRK/VBRP::::::::::007
Apart from the above, while combining 5 deliveries to one invoice, you should also ensure that following are unique in all preceding documents
a) Payer
b) Inco Term
c) Payment Term
d) Account Assignment Group
e) Actual GI Date
f)   Billing Date
g) Exchange Rate in case of exports
How can they add fix price in the invoice
Go to V/06, create a header condition type without any access sequence. While creating billing, key in manually this condition type and value.

Item no does not have a Variable Cost on the Cost Detail screen

Hi,
Item no does not have a Variable Cost on the Cost Detail screen. If you use the Product Cost Model, it does have a variable cost. We need to determine the reason for this nonccost. Any idea of what would be the reason is.
Thanks,

Hi Friends,
I, my self resolved the issue. by considering the following 3 rd strategy in
For Activity Type/Processes: Considered 3rd strategy as below:
Activity Types/Processes: 1 plan Price for the Period, 6 Most Up-to-date Plan Price
and 2 Plan Price as Average of All Fiscal Year Periods.
Now it has been resolved.
Thanks all.
Now it is closed.

Fixed & variable cost!

Hi,
Could anyone show me how fixed and variable cost are treated in SAP
In case commercial enterprise, (not implementing Product costing sub-module), how to take care fixed and variable cost ?
If it possible, could you show me the documents relevant my concern!
Thanks very much for any help!

Thanks Ashok,
Yes, I am clear what you mean now.
But My concern is mixed-cost (semi-fixed or semi-variable), how the system dealt with this?
For example:
salary of sales man: Cost element 627000
fixed salary: 500
If he sells more than 20 product a month, he will receive 10 for each addition one.
So 500 is fixed cost, and the bonus is variable.
This CE 627000 is called mixed cost element.
In many cases, the accountant can not know which part is fixed, which one is variable as my example.
So at the end of period, she will use some ways to calculate
And, another problem i care: except drawing statement , what more can SAP do about fixed & variable?
Thanks very much Ashok!

Hi,
You can go by the following path:
SAP Easy Access>Accounting>Controlling>Product Cost controlling>Product cost planning>Information System>Detailed reports>For Material>CK86_99 - Costed Multilevel BOM & CK80_99 - Cost Components
I hope this is of help to you.

Variable Cost And Fix Cost Planning

What are the settings and are they in Product Costing sub module to be able to clearly see the difference in movement of fixed and variable costs for the activity types in the cost of a product. (Product Cost with quatitiy structure CK11N)
At present, in our settings, even though we have broken the rates as fixed and variable for the actitiy types in cost center planning, there is absolutely no impact in product cost for this. All costs move like variable costs.
Best Regards.

Check in Cost component structure for cost component for the attributes.
For Activity cost type attribute you must select the control parameter as fixed and variable costs radio button.

Fixed and variable cost element's cost

hi,
i would like to clarify. need your kind advice.
1) can direct cost has both fixed and variable cost? can have example?
2) can indirect cost has both fixed and variable cost? can have example?
3) direct cost only happens in direct cost center and indirect cost only happens in indirect cost center?
4) can direct cost center assign to fixed cost element and variable cost element? Likewise, indirect cost center assign to fixed cost element and variable cost element?
thanks

Hi,
As per my understanding
Direct cost to a department could be variable or fixed.
Example: A supervisor in the X department would be a direct cost to the Dept A department. Since the X salary is likely to be the same amount each month regardless of the quantity of products manufactured, it is a fixed cost to the department. The supplies furnished to the X department will be a direct cost to the department, but will be a variable cost to the department if the total amount of supplies used in the department increases as the volume or activity in the department increases.
Indirect cost is the Power used to operate a production machine.
Example: The cost of the Power is variable because the total Power used is greater when more products are manufactured on the machine. Depreciation on the production machine is also an indirect product cost, except it is usually a fixed cost. That is, the machineu2019s total depreciation expense is the same each year regardless of volume produced on the machine.
As you can see, costs can be direct and indirect depending on the cost object: product, department. The cost is fixed if the total amount of the cost does not change as volume changes. If the total cost does change in proportion to the change in the activity or volume, it is a variable cost.

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

Excise Duties should be added to the material cost

Hi all,
Here my Client place comes under excise exception. Here they are not going to avail excise credit. Also there is no utilization. If the material is procured from outside then the vendor will charge the excise amount as he comes under excisable place. So in this case my client wants to track the excise duties paid on the materials and they want the register updation also. Meanwhile they want the excise duties to be added on the Material cost. So I have maintained J1ID settings for the materials & vendors also I have maintained FV11. Here in this case the excise duties are not adding up to material cost.
For Ex: I am procuring a Material ABC from a Vendor. My PO price will be 100.
Qty=1EA
PO Price=100
BED=16
Ecess=0.32
SEcess=0.16
In Normal case my Inventory cost of the material will be 100.
In this case my client wants to be 116.48 should be the material price and at the same time the 16,0.32&0.16 should post to the respective CENVAT Clearing account at the time of MIGO & MIRO.
Can anyone please suggest me how to handle this issue?

hi Manju
As i understood that your plant is in the area which is under Tax exempted. See you have two option from excise point of view.
1. Either mantain the conditions through FV11 and call the same in your PO through Tax code and country combination.
Mantain the J1ID and manatain material chapter id combination material type and the no of gr and credit allowed it will hit your excise register in migo while you do GR as per the material type mantained in J1ID. But here you cant add the duty amount to be get added on Material Value.
2. You mantain the condtion in the FV11 go for key combination tax code and country, inventorised condition type for eg JMIP inv BED condtion mantain the desirable rate their which would be 14% from now. Create PO with the suitable tax code and mantain J1ID AND DO THE GR IT WILL GET ADDED TO YOUR MATERIAL VALUE.
Also if you cant avail the credit on the output material you cant accumalate credit in your register also accumulated credit can't be carry forward in the next financial year.
Reward if usefull

Transportation cost before the reception of the material in MIGO (Stock in transit)

Does it exist a way to make a reception of materials in transit and post the transportation cost before the reception of the material in MIGO ?
The material is own of company before to be receipt in plant. We need to pay the transportation before that material is arrived at plant.
As the value is an important cost, we need that this cost be linked with the cost of the material. We can put a condition, but it does not work if the material in not receipt in MIGO. We can enter a subsequent debit memo, but the invoice of the reception should be enter in the system and by the way the reception too. So how should we process to link the transportation cost with the material if this material is not received at plant and by the way in MIGO.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
As of my knowledge, system will allow to process the shipment document - create shipment cost document and vendor invoice also, even before doing GR for the PO. Please check the scenario and revert back if you are getting any error.
If you want the shipment cost as delivery cost, refer the note: 427944 - Info: Shipment costs as delivery costs during goods receipt
