Group Assessment cycles

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to create Group Assessment cycles and run them together at month-end?
We are on SAP 4.7C.
Pls reply.
Thanks

Hi,
I would re frame the question, the requirement is to run multiple assessment cycles together, when you go to an assessment cycle in KSU5, and on the top goto Extras --> Cycle --> Cycle run groups, you get the group the cycle belongs to. I can also create a group and assign multiple cycles to this group similar to a Cost Center Group.
Now is there a method I can run this cycle groups at once.
Thanks.

Cost center Group & Assessment cycle

We are running CC reports for CC groups X and Y - Report GR55, Report group 1000 - Run in both currencies Pesos and USD by running in both currency modes.
Requirement:
1) How can we see the net balance in CC reports after assessments out = 0 in both Pesos and USD currencies.
2) Where we can see the link between Cost center Group and Assessment cycle.
Thanks,
Raju

Hi,
1) You will see the credit entries in the report after the assessment is run. Here, report should have configured in such a way, you can see both debit and credit entries.
2) If you have assigned the KSB1 Actual cost line report to the report, you can doubte click and see from which cost centers the values have flown through assessment.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

eg: in the selection screen if user enter the costcenter group ........ program needs to get all the costcenters in the group and run the cycles for those costcenters.
can any help me with .. how to get the costcenters when user enters costcenter group in the selection screen.
any suggestions would be helpful.

Assessment Cycle Receiver Group

Hi,
I have created Product Group in Receiver Tab in CO-PA Assessment Cycle. Here I want to automatically add Products to Product Group whenever new products are introduced as the volume of creating new products are more. Pls suggest

Hi Varsha,
As you know how to create a set (group) for product, there why don't you create a group (set) with a sequence of expecting future (from ---- to) eg: 1 to 999999999 or A to ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, so that when you add a new product, which we will be added into your receivers in KEU2 also.
As you posed a question I tried with profit center group and it worked fine.

HDI unlock assessment cycle run group

When I try to ru assessment cycle I am geting error mesage . How Do I unlock it so I can run it manualy? here do I lock it and unlock it.
Message no. GA562
Diagnosis
You want to start cycle A00004 10/01/2004. However, cycle run group 0000 is locked by user . This can happen if user is running a cycle from flow group 0000, or if the cycle is assigned to another flow group, but has dependencies with th flow group for cycle A00004.
System Response
Processing is stopped.
Procedure
Wait until cycle run group 0000 is no longer locked and start your cycle again.
You can lock a cycle run group either by executing a different cycle or manually reposting a document during indirect activity allocation.

Hi,
Try this. go to KSU5 and extras-cycle-display cycle. then select the cycle. choose go then select the cycle group and select the overview button. here you can see the sub tree and see whether any dependency is there for the cycle. If so you have to run according to the sequence.
Hope you go the answer.
All the best.

COPA Assessment Cycle using KEU5 for multiple controlling areas

Hello All,
There is an organization with operations in several countries. There is a separate controlling area for each country. There is one controlling area, for instance, for Germany and another for Netherlands.
A problem is encountered while executing transaction KEU5 for multiple controlling areas in parallel. For instance, when one user from Germany executes KEU5 for an assessment cycle for Germany controlling area and at the same time another user from Netherlands tries to execute KEU5 for a cycle for NL controlling area, the user from Netherlands encounters an error message u201C'Cycle XXXX 01.02.2008 cannot be started because run group 0000 is locked'.
Apparently SAP allows assessment cycles for exactly one controlling area to be executed together. This poses a problem since the organization plans to implement SAP in several other countries (There will be one separate controlling area for each country as per the organization structure adopted by the company).
Any ideas, views or suggestions on the aforesaid issue would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Soumya

Hi Soumya,
Did you find any text in SAP Documentation saying that "SAP does not allow cycles belonging to different controlling areas to be executed at the same time"...?
Pls find the following text from SAP Help...
Parallel Processing of Cycles of an Allocation Type
Use
Parallel processing of cycles results in considerable time savings. To process cycles of one allocation type in parallel, they must be assigned to different cycle run groups.
You define the cycle run groups in the cycle header data. You also assign cycles to the cycle run groups in the header data.
To process the cycles of a cycle run group in parallel, start the cycles one after the other, if required, in different sessions.
You are carrying out a cross-company code cost accounting and want to perform the actual assessment in the individual company codes in parallel. Create a cycle run group for each company code and assign the appropriate cycles to these groups. You can then carry out the actual assessment in the individual company codes in parallel.
When you execute a cycle, you can start a consistency check. The system checks whether you are allowed to execute the selected cycles in parallel.
Though I didn't come across such requirement, I feel, my earlier suggestion will work out...

Assessment cycles, gr55 and ke30

hi there,
we have many assessment cycles, cost objets, report painter, Z and COPA reports. I am sure we cant transport master data but can have transport requests for config in IMG. Can we transport the sets/ reports from DEV-QA- Prodn? I am referring to gr31/gr51 and COPA reports?
Also can we transport the assessment cycles along with their segments?
Thanks.

Hi,
Report Groups and reports in report painter can be transported from DEV-QA-PRD. You can do this using T.code GCTR.
You can also transport sets from DEV-QA-PRD. Go to GS02 Change sets. Mention the set you want to transport and then go to utilities in menu bar. Under utilities you will have the option of transport which have transport request has sub node.
Please assign points if useful.

Assessment cycle

Hi guys. I need help on how to create gl assessment cycle step by step. I created a cycle using FAGLGA11 but i keep getting an error message that the sender and receiver doesn't exist. Is there something that I am missing. My goal is to do profit center assessment to transfer costs from one cost center(service) to 8 cost centers (production) and post the costs into one GL account. Please help , its urgent.Thanks for your help.
Moderator: Please, read and respect the rules of SDN

Hi Sridhar,
You have defined is ok, further you have to give the selections in the Receiver Tracing Factor - Reveiver Rule / Var portion type.
You have the following options:
1. Receiver Rule - You want to transfer the variable portions / fixed amounts / fixed % etc.,
2. Var. Portion type - On what basis you want to split the sender amount from 201 to receiver cost center group Actual costs / plan costs / actual Statistical key figures / plan Statistical key figures.
Unless you dont do the selections it would not be able to identify the sender and receiver.

Runtime Analysis in PA Assessment Cycle

Dear All,
I have run an PA Assessment Cycle in with "Flow Trace On" and "Run Time Analysis On".I have a 3 part question
A) I seek your help in understanding the following and correct my understanding(stated in small brackets) if i am wrong
     1) Before Selection (Start Time of the Cycle)
     2) After Selection (Database Selection)
     3) After Iteration (???)
     4) After Oldkey (???)
     5) After Post (???)
     6) No Of Sender Values in Database (No of Senders in my Cycle and for which Master data exists in Database)
     7) No Of Receiver Values in Database ( No of Unique Combination of Receivers in the Database CE4XXXX table)
     8) No Of Allocating Senders (Out of the Senders stated in Point 6, No of Senders that are actually sending Values)
     9) No Of Allocating Senders (Out of the Senders stated in Point 7, No of Receivers that are actually receiving Values)
    10) No Of Line Items(???)
B) When i run the same Cycle in Test Run and Update run there is a huge difference in time and the Values for the items 6~10 points also differ( i am the only one working on the test system and there is no other data posted posted apart from this) so what is the reason for difference.
C) If i am running on a HANA COPA Accelerator, will the change in the receivers (stated below) have an impact on the read time (logically yes, but need some expert opinion also)
     1) No of Characteristics (Ex: Unitil now Profit Center alone, from now on PCTR, Product, Div, Dis Chl)
     2) No of Characteristics Values (Ex: Unitill Now PRTCR Values are A,B and C From now on it will be A~Z)
Request your valuable inputs. And my apologies for a very long question.
Thanks & Regards
Surya

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for your comment. But that is not compliant to my question. I didn't do any configuration in KEPA and assign any characteristics groups for assessment cycle. However I really don't know why only one characteristics(Product:ARTNR) is suppressed and so I cannot input any value into that characteristics for actual assessment cycle.
I will appreciate your kindly help.
Best regards,
Ivan

Problem in Actual assessment cycle.

Hi Team,
We are using assessment cycle to distribute the cost from utility cost center to production cost center, after cycle execution we found the cost in debit side of the production cost center with assessment cost element. And also we are using the substitution is that the cost which is coming on the assessment cost element will flow to FICO reconciliation GL. We created 5 sets of assessment cost element groups( depreciation secondary cost element group, Admin OH, Store spares, Salary wages & power & Fuel) which correspond to five 9 series reconciliation accounts.
The 5 reconciliation GLu2019s are as follows:
1. Depreciation                90102003
2. Administrative overheads     90102004
3. Store spares.                90102005
4. Salary & wages                   90102006
5. Power water & fuel.           90102007.
After assessment cycles when FI team runs the transaction F.01 for the above GLu2019s the cost is appearing. Which is the consolidated cost which is distributed from utility cost centers is there any way to get the primary cost element wise breakup of the above five heads. This is the requirement raised by the FI team kindly advice.
Regards,
Ravi.

Hi Ravi,
have you come up with any solution?
I have found, we can use substitution rules in New GL- CO reconciliation to fix assessment issue. In fact, we have to maintain multiple substitution rules or table to get correct P&L by primary cost element. This is pretty much possible.
My issue is, we are using COPA. COPA dont have distribution option.
Let me know if anyone has better option than substitution. because I don't want to loose my primary cost element information.

How create a 'set' of accounts (PCA assessment cycle (3ke1)

Guys hi,
I need to build a PCA assessment cycle between profit centers. (3Ke1)
The equivalent of cost element group in CCA cycle (KSU3) is apparently a 'set' in PCA, which I imagine is a group of FI accounts.
Do you know how create those sets? (couldn't find anything of the sort in the FI account master data !?)
Thanks for your time

Bapi for assessment cycle

Hello everybody,
I would like to use a standard bapi (or at least a standard function module) to entry values of assessment cycle segments (senders, receivers, percent....)
Does anyone know if such a standard bapi exist ?
Thanks for your help, you'll be rewarded.
Philippe

You can use KGAL_CREATE_CYCLE. Look for function group KGALRFC.
I think they are not officially released, but I used them in a project successfully.
Kind regards

COPA-Assessment cycle KEU5

We have run cost center -assessment cycle for a cost center group and all the cost of the profit centers are distributed to respective costcenters.And now we goto COPA-Assessment cycle KEU5 and run the cycle for the cycle with same cost center group as sender.
System posts a difference amount of positive amount in the credit side of each costcenter of that group.Which reduces the credit value and shows in over/under absorption.
Please suggest where from the system is finding the difference when all the costcenters are with zero value as cost is distributed thru CCA assessment cycle.What differences will a cycle run in co-pa determine.Please suggest.

Hi,
Actually, the Sales overhead and Corporate expenses which are captured in the Cost Center shall be allocated to the COPA. All other expenses captured in other Cost Centers shall be allocated to the Production and shall be absorped into the products manufactured. Hence, the same Cost Center shall not be used as sender in both the cycles. If we use like what you described, it will definitely result in over absorption that is more credits. Hence, please describe why need to add the same Cost Center group in both the CC cycle and Copa CC cycle.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

COPA Assessment Cycles Issue.

Dear All,
I have an issue with assessment cycles through COPA.
I have created assessment cycles for transferring the cost from cost center to products. So Maintained the sender cost center and cost elements but i maintained the receiver charecteristics which is not executing.
We have many charecteristics in copa report. But client has given the percentages for products only to distribute the cost from cost center to Products.
How can i achive this with proper execution of assessment cycles.
Regards,
Prakash.

Dear Prakash,
Check in Tcode KE24 whether values are posted for the combination of receivers you have mentioned in Assessment cycle. If the values are not posted for the combinations as receivers, system will not post the values through assessment cycle.Restrict the receiver characteristics for e.g. company code, Material Group etc.

Makrand

KSU5 Assessment cycle execution error

Hi,
I am getting an error while executing the assessment cycle through KSU5.
I have defined the sender from one Cost center group and one cost element group. similarly assigned a receiver cost center group.
while executing the assessment cycle in test mode getting the error " .... does not include any senders.".
Can some one suggest the pre-requisites for KSU5.
Thanks & Regards

Hi
1. Check Secondary Cost Element and its Category
2. Assessment Cycle - Sender/Receiver Tab : Sender Cost Centre & Cost Elements Range From & To / Group, " which were not included "
Regards
