Input Quantity Variance and Input Price Variance for Production Order

Dear All
I am running variance program KKS2 for calculating variance of production order. for Activity variances are coming under input price variance and input quantity varinace but for material the variances is now shown separately for quantity and price rather it is shown as variances total amount. Can someone help me in know why material quanitty variance and price variance not shown separately
Regards

How does input variance and output varia.nce will be calculated on the settlement of production order after TECO.
VARIANCE CALCULATION DEPENDS ON CONFIGURATION IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS,
1) VARIANCE VARIANT - DETERMINES WHAT VAREIANCE CATEGORIES ARE CALCULATED, E.G MATERIAL PRICE , USAGE, LABOUR RATE , USAGE VARIANCE ETC..
2) TARGET COST VERSIONS
3) VALUATION VARIANT FOR WIP AND SCRAP
Can we check in KOB3 or COOIS.
KOB3 - YES
COOIS - CHECK IN COST REPORT

Error while calculating variances for production order

Hi Gurus,
while calculating variances for production order i am getting the following error
"Cannot calculate scrap variances" ( Error message)
" no standard value estimate for material" (Warning message"
A standard cost estimate exists for the material at the date mentioned in the error in released status.
Please give solution for the error.
Thanks in advance n Regards
Arul.

Is there an itemization, generated for the cost estimate used to calculate the target costs?
Does the material components listed in the BOM of the cost estimate used to calculate the target costs, assigned to the operations in which they are used. Otherwise it is not possible to correctly report the variances and scrap when operations are confirmed.
Does the order for which the variances are calculated have a valid variance key. ?
Does the order have the status DLV (delivered) or TECO (technically completed). If the status was withdrawn, any variances and scrap variances are canceled.

Actual activity price calculation for production order

Hi
Can any one guide me in how many ways we can assign actual activity price calculation for production order?
I knew only one way by assigning PPP2 costing variant?
I have another doubt is: if we don't mention any material valuation indicator (moving average, standard) in valuation variant, how system will calculate material prices? is there any other way, to recognize the prices by system?
regards,
Ramesh B

Dear,
Costing variant PPP2 is linked to some valuation variant inn OPL1
System will check the valuation of material and activity according to this valuation variant
For material valuation there are many stg acceding to which system will take the price the raw material,
Valuation strategy for material component
Strategy sequence that determines the valuation of the materials used in the cost estimate.
Use
The materials are valuated using the price in the material master record or the values calculated in a material cost estimate.
Procedure
You can enter a single strategy, or you can enter multiple strategies in the form of a strategy sequence. If you enter multiple strategies, the priority of the strategy determines what price or what values are selected.
Examples
Assume that the following strategy sequence is entered for material valuation:
1. Planned price 1
2. Standard price
3. Moving average price
If the system finds a value in the Planned price 1 field (costing view), this value is taken as the value for valuating the material.
If the system does not find a value, the value in the Standard price field (accounting view) is used.
If the material does not have a standard price, the system uses the value from the Moving average price field.
if you have not mentioned, then system will give error that "valuation stg not found"
Valuation strategy for internal activities and processes-
Strategy sequence that determines how internal activities and processes are valuated in costing.
Use
The activities and business processes used are valuated with the prices from Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to determine the production costs or process costs. The prices can either be calculated iteratively through price calculation, or entered manually by the user.
Procedure
You can enter either a single strategy or more than one strategy in the form of a strategy sequence. If you enter more than one strategy, the priority of the strategy determines which price is selected.
Examples
The following strategy sequence is entered:
1. Actual price of the previous period
2. Plan price of the previous period
3. The most current plan price
If the system finds a price for the activity type, this price is used for valuating the internal activities. If no price was calculated for the previous period, the plan price from the previous period is used to valuate the activity type.
If the system cannot find a plan price for the previous period, it looks for a future plan price, using the next price in the posting period to valuate the internal activities. For example, if plan prices have been entered for periods 2 and 3, and a plan price is calculated in period 1 for period 4, the system uses the price from period 3 in accordance with the valuation strategy Most up-to-date plan price.
Again if you have not mentioned, then system will give error that "valuation stg not found".
You can use any costing variant for actual (PPP2)and planned(PPP1) according to your requirement.. check in OPL1

Price/Quantity Variance in Production Order

Hi
How does Price and Quantity Variances are calculated for a Production Order?
Regards
Kailash

Hi Kailash,
The variances relating to Input Price and Input Quantity are calculated on following basis...
Input price variances
Input price variances are caused by differences between the planned and actual prices of the materials and activities used.
The system can only calculate input price variances if quantities were specified in addition to the planned and actual costs. The following conditions must be met for this:
You need t turn on the Material origin indicator in the costing view of the master record of all materials that have a large influence on your costs. Uniform units of measure must be assigned to all input materials. That is, material costs can only be totaled under a cost element when such costs are carried under the same unit of measure.
If you have defined primary input price variances in Customizing, the system will calculate input price variance percentages and update them with reference to the operation. When you start the variance calculation process at the end of the period, this data will be canceled and the input price variances calculated by multiplying the difference between the planned price and the actual price by the confirmed quantity. If the confirmed quantities are incomplete or do not exist, input price variance percentages will be shown.
Input quantity variances
Input quantity variances are caused by differences between the planned and actual consumption quantities of materials and activities. You need to turn on the Material origin indicator in the costing view of the master record of all materials that have a large influence on your costs.
As a whole, if you want to see input quantity variances and input price variances, you must make the following settings:
Turn on the Material origin indicator in the costing view of the material master record.
Turn on the Record quantity indicator in the cost element.
When it calculates the variances, the system does not check whether the Record quantity indicator is turned on. If quantities are not recorded, however, it is not possible to calculate quantity variances. If the Record quantity indicator is turned on, a warning message is issued if you do not enter a quantity in consumption postings.
Pls revert back for further explanation....

Regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders

Hi,
I have a issue regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders.
Actually I am having a Z - Function Module in that i am passing production order number other details to
make the Goods Reversal happen.
The code for the above is as below:
 i_mvtit-material = wa_mdfa-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = 'ZWIP'.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg. "New
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = '262'.
 i_mvtit-xstob = 'X'.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = '03'.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
The Above code does the Goods Reversal but then i will update one Z Table with fields like
Production Order Number[AUFNR], Number of Reservation[RSNUM], Item Number of Reservation [RSPOS], Material Number [MATNR], Requirement Quantity [BDMNG], WBS element[PSPNR] etc. If Above BAPI runs sucessfully.
That is happening correctly.
But Then actual issue is i have do Goods Issue for those Z-Table records.
There i will give Production order Number's & Storage Location in Selection-Criteria.
Then i need to do Goods Issue for that order.
The code i had written as follows.
* POPULATE VALUES FOR BAPI CALL
 i_mvtit-material = i_zpsi7603_01-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New

 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
 EXPORTING
 wait = c_x.
 READ TABLE i_return INDEX 1.
 IF i_return-type EQ c_s.
 DELETE FROM zpsi7603_01 WHERE aufnr = i_resb-aufnr AND
 rsnum = i_resb-rsnum AND
 rspos = i_resb-rspos.
 ENDIF.
If i run above code for Goods Issue it is giving error can anybody tell me what changes i need to do to make it work.
The Error Message i am getting is as below:
Qty and / or "delivery completed" ind. or final issue ind. are missing
Error Number for the above is : 264.
Can anybody solve my issue.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Hi,
Thanks boss.
It is working now correctly.
The issue is the i_mvtit-XSTOB should be equal space in case of Goods issue while incase of Reversal it should be equal to X.
Thanks for ur efforts.
I had awarded you points.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Abolish product cost collector for production order

Dear Experts,
we use for some production order types the product cost collector. Now we plan to abolish them and change the settlement for production order. Which things do we have to pay attention? Do we have to finish our running production orders first or is it possible to change customizing during running production process. Thanks for your hepl!
Best regards
Steffen

Hi Ajay,
thank you for your answer.
We have tested two variants:
1. new order type, so we can process two separate settlements, for orders with PCC and the new orders without PCC. After archiving of all prodorders with pcc, archiving of pcc it should be possible to switch back to old order type.
2. change customizing without finishing existing orders, settlement for existing orders, all orders which already have been processed will be settled by pcc (status pcc usage in order header) We have not be seen any strange system behavior.
We use the pcc collector for different order types in different plants and want to abolish plant by plant. In this time the pcc will still be customized/exists.
Best regards
Steffen

Variance calculation for production order

Hello,
I am clarifying what's the selection criteria for settled production orders so that we can carry out the following
close and deletion flag activities.
I am currently in release ECC605. Need to carify the below questions.
1. For production order without header material (dismantle production order), no need to do variance calculation before
settlement,right? Because I found system will respond green light but "no order was processed", this kind of production order
won't possess "VCAL variance calcaulted" system status.
2. For all production orders created with header material, vairance calculation is a must, even the variance is 0.
So the production orders will possess "VCAL" status after variance calculation transaction is done.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Nancy

How to maintain minimum price limit and maximum price limit for a condition

Hello Gurus,
Goodmorning,
How to set minimum price limit and maximum price limit for a pricing condition type where we will do this ?, is it possible to set in VK11 ?
Note- I can see minimum and maximum setting in condition type pricing - in SPRO but not seen anything in VK11 condition record maintaince . so how to maintain in condition record( VK11-Minimum limit price and Max limit price )
Looking for your inputs
Thanks in advance

How to compare the variances of production order type and get report

Hello All,
I want to compare the variances of production order type wise.
for ex. i want variances of order type PP 01 and PP 02 in a single report.

Hi Sachin,
You have to maintain summarization hierarchies to achieve this.
1. Maintain summarization hierachies with hierarchy level - order type in the t.code.KKR0
2. Generate the hierarchy in KKRC
3. Run the report KKBC_HOE

Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI

Hi...
I have one query reference to Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
I am working on Varaint configuration with strategy 25(Make-to-order for configurable material) with requirement class 046.
I have created sales order ref. to configurable material,subsequently created planned order & then converted to production order.
In production order settlement receiver is SDI(Sales document item).
While doing production confirmation ,variance has been created.
Now during variance calculation KKS2, I have got error message as no suitable settlement rule found for object Order no.
Is there any way to come out of this?Or variance calculation KKS2 is not applicable with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
Pl. guide

Hi
In case of non valuated material, concept of variance does not apply...
Variance is Actual Cost - Cost of Goods receipt posted in stock.. If the later value is zero, your entire actual cost is variance... That is one way of saying it
But, in SAP, var not calculated in case of non valuated material and that makes sense as well.. Since you are in MTO scenario, it would make sense to analyse costs vs revenues @ sale order level as each SO will be unique in itself

Issue in Exporting the Sales Price List and Purchase Price List for the Materials from SAP Business ByDesign (SAP Cloud)

Hello Everyone,
I would like to have a discussion on the issues, which I am facing at the time of Exporting the Sales Price List and Purchase Price List for the Materials from
SAP Business ByDesign (SAP Cloud).
(1). Sales Price List :
We have maintained Customer Group Specific Sales Price List for the Materials in the following Location.
Location :         Product and Service Portfolio Work Center > Pricing > Price Lists > Customer Group Specific Price List (Type of Price List)
Target :             We want to export the entire records in some reports or excel sheet.
Records :          Number of Materials in the Customer Group Specific Price List is more than 2,00,000
Issues :
                                     (A). In the SAP Business ByDesign Screen we can filter by number of records but we can export till 50,000 records.
                                             And if we are trying to export records more than that limit, then it throws "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error".
                                     (B). We could not find any SAP standard reports in Product and Service Portfolio and/or Business Analytics Work Center
                                            for getting the entire record set of the Sales Price List, so that we can have the entire set of records together.
Searching For :
                                      (A). Is there any SAP reports or data source available for getting the entire Sales Price List records?
                                      (B). Can we have any other filter conditions for exporting the Sales Price List records in a single shot or module wise?
(2). Purchase Price List :
We have maintained the Purchase Price List for the Materials in the following Location.
Location :           Product Portfolio Work Center > List Prices > Active List Prices (Type of Price List)
Target :               We want to export the entire records in some reports or excel sheet.
Records :            Number of Materials in the Purchase Price List is more than 4,00,000.
Issues :
                                       (A). In the SAP Business ByDesign Screen we can not see more than 10,000 records and the actual number of
                                               records are more than 4,00,000. We could able to download the records till 10,000 but that is not sufficient.
                                               We want to export the entire records in an excel sheet.
                                       (B). We could not find any SAP standard reports in Product Portfolio and/or Business Analytics Work Center for

Expected yield variance in production order creation

Dear sir
pl tellme ,where i have to capture the expected yeld variance.
for thisbelow given reasion i have to capture the expected yeld variance
Total confirmation quantity not equal to planned confirmatio.
The confirmed quantity for this operation is not equal to the planned quantity to be confirmed
The quantity confirmed until now for this operation is greater that the planned quantity to be confirmed.
pl tell me
thanks and regrds
Baswaraj

Hi raj,
At the time of order creation system shows Delivery tolerance in goods receipt tab since you maintained at Material Master level But Expected yield variance will be Zero (System doesn't know how much you are going to confirm).
After Doing Final confirmation with clear reservations indicator and goods movements, System calculates the difference between actual order quantity and confirmed quantity at operation level in percentage. System updates the same in Production order. In your first order you got 0.2-. That means based upon operation yield confirmation, your expected yield i.e. GR quantity is 0.2% less than the order quantity. At the time of GR, system proposes the quantity you confirmed at operation level, but not the order quantity.
Where as coming to second order your conformed quantity is same as your order quantity. Hence system is not showing any expected yield variance in production order.
Check it with different order quantities.
Regards,
Venkat.V
Note: At the time of operation final confirmation in CO11n, if you select Confirmation Type Final confirmation and the Indicator Clear Open reservations, Irrespective of operation quantity UOM system proposes Expected yield variance in CO02 after conformation.

New operation for production order - change operation quantity not possible

Hello all,
we want to create a new operation for a production order.
So we go to CO02 and to the operation order overview screen.
But when we add a new operation, the system will not let us determine the operation quantity for the new operation, the system will just take the quantity from the operation before.
How can I determine the qty by myself?
Thanks
Anne

You can do another way also. You change your routing with new operation quantity and save it in CA02. NOw you go to CO02 and read master data in funtions, then the new operation quantity will definetly come in to the production order.
