How to Capture Logistics activity in overall Product costing?

Can anyone guide me and suggest me some ideas for capturing the logistics activity (both material inward and outward) to adding it to the overall product cost.

Sorry in fact, it was a typographical error.   CO forum is the ideal forum to get suitable suggestions.

  • How the Trading Goods mapped in to Product costing and COPA in Controlling

    Dear Experts,
    I have a trading goods scenario in my client. How the mapping into Product Costing and COPA.
    They just purchase FG products from Vendors and Sell to their Customers, they received FG Products to Main Plant from Vendors and then sends to Branches from Main Plant, In between some expenses accured like Transport, Fright etc. this is my scenario.
    How the settings to be made in Product costing and COPA.
    I am waiting for your favorable reply.
    Thanks,
    KBR.

    Hi Bhaskar
    I believe branches are also created as Plants
    You have 2 choices....
    Choice 1: If the Freight amount is known @ the time of Transfer from Main plant to Branches, include the same in STO so that inventory value in Branch = Purchase Value + Freight amount
    CHoice 2: If thats not possible, then inventory value in Branch will be same as the Main plant... The expenses incurred on freight needs to be posted to a cost center... Then allocate them @ month end based on revenue / Quantity sold etc using KEU5
    Whichever choice you make, Product Costing is not relevant and required as well... You dont need to do any CK11N
    If you want to see in COPA Purchase value separate and the Freight, etc separate - Then choice 2 is the route for you

    This code could work to capture the desktop screen:
    Dimension d = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
    Image imgs;
    try{
         Robot r = new Robot();
    Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0,0,d.width,d.height);

  • How to add depreciation and interest in product costing?

    how to add depreciation and interest in standard cost estimate and actual costing in product costing ?

    Hi,
    WHy the admin and sales overhead will be deited to cost of product. The cost of product should include only the factory related direct cost and overhead cost .. not the sales and admin ovehead. exp. for those treat them as period expense and pass on the same to COPa and there those can be analysed there..
    I hope i am clear..

  • How to Close Planned Over Heads in product costing

    HI,
    We are maintaining planned over heads through KP26 and Costing sheet.Kindly tell me how to close planned over head wether it is periodicall closing or other?
    Kindly provide me the guide lines  how to do this Planned overheads closing in the system?How many ways are there to close planned overheads in the system?
    Kindly adviice me?
    Thanks
    Sunitha

    Dear Sunitha,
    To run the Cost estimate or close the planned overhead KP26 and Costing Sheet is not enough you have to move forward and you need to define Cost component Structure (OKTZ) Path: SPRO > IMG > Controlling > Product Cost Controlling > Product Cost Planning > Basic Setting for Material Costing > Define Cost Component Structure. After maintaining cost component structure you need to define Costing variant T.code OKKN Path: SPRO > IMG > Controlling > Product Cost Controlling > Product Cost Planning > Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure . Here you copy PPC1 standard and create your own costing Variant.
    After Maintaining the Configuration go to T.code CK11n and run your costing and if it is correct then save it. To update Price in MM run T.code CK24 and release Material and update it.
    thx.

  • How to capture screen activity? (screen&audio to video file)

    Hello,
    I have to capture video desktop activity (including audio) to a file using JMF. I spent hours and hours searching this... a have studied a lot of classes, examples BUT I don't know how to bind them... how to record the actvity. My project is to record screen activity, upload on a server and finally control my computer remotely from an applet (or from another java desktop application). I will use HTTP streaming (what I record I upload on a server, then stream it to the client)
    Can someone show me some hints or code for modifying JVidCap example from Sun? Someone else on Sun forum said he could do it but did not say how...
    I just want to modify the video capturing so that I get the screen actifity recorded. I read nearly all examples possible including Screen Grabber...
    Please help me!
    I also have those two classes to get the screen activity as datasource... from [Screen Grabber|http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/ScreenGrabber.html] example but I really don't understand how to implement them in my application because there is no method returning a datasource object... (or probably I don't know how to use them):
    (DataSource and LiveStream class)
    I hope someone can bind them or help me to go on on this project.... it is so important to me ...

    Thanks A LOT for info. I really apprectiate it. This is my code... many mistakes I think... I have a NullPointerException.

  • How to capture content activity log from DMP?

    Hi There,
    I try to implement content activity log from DMP. The information that I want to get are DMP IP, Conent File Name (video or jpg file), open date/time. The only way that I can do is sending http command direct to DMP (http.file via port 7777).
    Is it possible to implement Syslog server to get those information from DMP?
    Thank you
    Panya

    Hi Panya,
    There is a feature called "Proof Of Play" which was created exactly to track what the DMPs are playing, you can find the documentation at the following link:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_2/dmm/user/guide/signs/proof.html
    Is this what you are looking for?

  • Activity Output prices/Product Costing

    Hi Guys-
    We have created-Machine Hours as activity type.But while doing KP26-how do arrive at unit cost/price of this activity type.ie-on what basis will this activity be costed?
    Thx

    Hi SR,
    Let's go to the basics of Costing.
    What is Machine Hours? Why have you created it?
    Machin Hour Activity is created for measuring the cost incurred for running the particular Machine. As you must be knowing, each activity (Labour , Machin Activity) involves some cost for the organisation.
    In case of the Machin Hr, the cost may be depreciation , consumables , cutting oil, electricity consumption required etc. You can add many more depending on the client requirement. Discuss with the team members also. They can give you info as per their requirement.
    The total of the above cost for the company divided by the total machine hours consumed will give you the Machine Hour Cost.
    Hope this helps you to understand the concept.
    Regards,
    Gov

  • How to Book Activity Type to the Cost Center

    Hi Guys
    How should I put Activity type and a value to it in the cost center.
    In the Assessment Cycle I am getting the error as the reciever : Cost Center has Activity type assigned to it but there is no value in the Activity type.
    Can some one help me out on how the activity is initially linked to the Cost Center.
    and how will we put activity value in the cost center.
    Thanks in advance
    kranthi

    Hi,
    Use T.code KP26.
    Here enter the version as '0' & then enter the activity type, cost center & then click the overview icon in the top.
    A new screen will appear, here you can enter the fixed/vairable price.
    This activity type is to be assigned in the work center (T.code cr02), costing tab.
    Hope this helps, pl. reward.

  • Transfer price (Internal Reveue to be allocated to Production cost Center)

    Hi  Sap Gurus.
    My cleint using tranfer price without activiation material Ledger. The internal revenue should not reflect in Fi.  For that we have created ztable and we will be able to transfer the stock between profit center and we are getting internal reveue to the sending profit sender and expenses to the receiving profit center finaally  balance become a zero,(we are maintaing same gl account while doing transfer price). Now expense in receving profit center should consider as part of produt costing. how to allocate this expense to the production cost center when there is no balance.
    Example
    SENDING              PLANT 1                  MATERIAL  123456         MM PRICE (10)   TP   15
    RECEIVNING        Plant    2                  Material      123456         MM PRICE (10)   TP   15
    While taking STO system is posting with material master price 10, but in the production if they are using that material system should take 5 also . 10 is the cost and 5 is overhead.
    help me out?

    These are some few things I found out. Below is the result of a test I carried out when I tried to create a Settlement Rule for a statistical order.
    Statistical order may not contain a settlement rule
    Message no. KO188
    Diagnosis
    Order 12770, for which you are trying to create a settlement rule, is statistical.
    System Response
    Statistical orders cannot have a settlement rule because they cannot be settled.
    Procedure
    You could possibly remove the statistics indicator from the order (only if nothing has been posted to it yet).
    I may be wrong but I have determined that, for production orders, you will have to use Standard Production Order Type and not a statistical order. The object class has to be production as well.
    You will only be able to create a settlement rule if it is not a statistical order with the assignment category as ORD. Also, in your order type: Internal Order - Production, under general parameters, you will have to assign settlement profile 30 which is production order.
    You may have to define planning profiles for co production orders, costing variant, valuation types.  Maintain order types using KOT2.  Example:
    Order Type:  PP01 Standard Production Order
    Order Category: 10 PP Production Order
    Number Range Interval: 1000000000--19999999999
    Settlement Profile: abc
    CO Partner Update: Semi-Active
    Check of Classification
    Next Maintain Settlement Profile: ABC Standard Production Order
    Check off "To be Settled in Full
    Default Allocation Structure: E.G: EB
    Indicators: check off: 100% Validation. % settlement, equivalent numbers
    Valid Receivers: 1 for most
    Document Type: OS Order Settlement
    Create Allocation etc.
    Hope this gives you some pointers as to how to proceed.

  • Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
    Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
    When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
    By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
    Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
    Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
    And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
    Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
    many thanks!

    problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.

  • How we calculate product cost  without taken activity type

    Respected sir,
    pls tell me without taking activity type costing can we calculate product cost? is it possible through Overhead costing to  calculate product cost?
    or if we taken quantity base costing how we calculate each product cost?
    please help me.......
    Than'x
    Dhananjay

    Hi
    Without Activity type you cannot calculate Operation cost. It is not good practice. Why you want to do like this. Please explain.
    I think Over head cost can be calculated without operation cost.

  • How to capture planned cost

    Dear experts ,
    please help me in the following scenario.
    At one of our location we have PP-PS scenario. production order is made for production in PP module.
       in that location mostly JOB production is done, there about 30 % of the total cost of equipment is given to outside contractors. our problem is how to capture that cost in budget ( WBS system is being followed ) in PO WBS is assigned.  we have created an activity and rate is maintained in KP26 for that activity so that planned cost is arrived at ( we have to capture the planned cost in production order) , our problem is in WBS amount is coming twice
    1)as remaining order plan in WBS and the available budget amount is getting reduced
    2) when the SR is made again the same amount is appearing in the commitment in WBS.and the available budget amount is reduced once again
    our requirement is budget what is to be done so that budget amount is not reduced twice , we also want to capture the planned cost in production order.
    Thanks and regards
    sanjiv

    HI,
    Inorder to get all the actual costs on activity which is actually on WBS. You can do an enhancement. This enhancement should find the all POs against PR which belongs to an activity and will repost the costs that is being posted on WBS on GR to the concerned activity.
