Is Costing Model (ECP) Transportable

Team,
I need to create near to 100 forms in CKCM for using in Easy Cost planning. Is the costing models created in CKCM is transportable to production server? While creating I didnt get any transport request and as per BASIS people its a transaction data and cannt be moved to production.
what is the best practice following while using costing model; how the testing and quality check is performed for such forms if we are directly creating it in production.
Thanks in advance
Reg/ Tony

Thanks
Summarizing for future reference
Step 1
Transfer the Characteristics to Target system- Use CT10 to download the Characteristic list and LSMW with object 0150 to upload
Step 2
Use SE38 and CKECP_EXPORT_MODEL in original system and SE38 and CKECP_IMPORT_MODEL in target system
Points to remember
Ensure that all the values are available in target system like Unit of Measurement etc
Ensure the cost element is defined
Ensure the material numbers are same in both systems

ECP Costing Model Load

Hi Experts,
I am currently tryin to develop a solution to create a large number of ECP costing models from inputs provided in a spreadsheet. Is there any way to do this without having to manually key the data?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Glenn

Hi
Your ABAPer can throw some light on the possibility with BDC.
This cannot be done with LSMW.

Easy Cost Planning: Calculation Row (Business Process) in Cost Model Derivation Rule

Hi All,
The Requirement:
Using the Cost Model I am able to do up to Sub-Total Value. I tried with Calculation Row (Business Process) in the Cost Model Derivation Rule, but could not succeed.
I tried with Base Planning Object, but the formulas are different for other scenarios. Which require 5 to 6 Base Planning Objects are required to be created to get the total amount for a single line item, in the construction project there will be more than 10,000 line items and it is very difficult to maintain the data and also it is time consuming.
Can you suggest me, how to map the requirement?
Best Regards,
K. Rajendra Prasad Rao

You need to check the following for the material cost to appear in network costing:
1. Check whether costing variant is assigned to the network or not.
2. Check whether costing relevancy indicator is checked in material component assigned to the network.
3. If costing variant exists, check the valuation variant and strategy sequence for material valuation.
4. Go to the material master and see whether price is mentioned or not.
I would suggest you to use Network costing, Also note network costing are recorded in Co version '0' so if you have maintained your ECP for '0' version, there is a chance of both the costing getting added up.

Cost Model

Hi Experts ,
i am using ECP for one of my requirements and it is a construction project .I have created characters (Lenght , Bradth and depth) for one of the cost models and for one line item (First line item )in the cost model let us say for an example , For concreting a column i enter the respective values for character (Length , Breadth and depth) and the quantity in the form of values are picked from these three characters as defined in the derivation rule.
When i am trying to enter the values for the second line item for the beam, the system i is picking the first values which were entered for Characters for first line item .
Please let mw know whether am i missing some thing in this process as my requirement is i want to use the same characters but the Values that are being entered for each line item shall vary .
Please help...

Hi Judy,
May be you can try to automate the process of calling the sub divide function by modifying the derivation rules. You can create a characteristic called " No. of items" ( Numeric ) and use it in the planning form. In the derivation rule, use Type as "Costing model" and enter the same Costing model in the "Object". In activation you can define the value with respect to this characteristic.( say XYZ = 3 ). you will have to configure in such a way that if user enters 3, then three Planning forms will appear..if entry is 4 , then four costing models will get populated.
With this arrangement, the costing models will populate automatically , thereby reducing the user workload.
Hope this helps.

Content model and transport in system using different repository

Hi experts,
In our development environment, we generated a content model for incoming post document
storing in a content server.
As the content model have been generated for this specific repository, I assume that this content model
will not work properly in an other environment using a different repository if we transport it. Am I correct?
Is it possible to change directly the content model assignment to a new repository in the target environment?
Or we have to generate a new content model in the target system using the initial content model as a template and assigning the
correct repository? In this case, we will have to maintain each content model in all the differents environments...
What are the best practises to handle this situation?
Thanks in advance for your help !
Regards
Frédéric

Dear Frederic,
It is possible to transport such model. You will just need to change the setting of the storage category to point to the new content server in the new system- transaction OACT. Storage category is attribute called STORAGE_CAT in the virtual PHIO class of the content model( ends with **V).
Please note that the content model should be transported in its creation language.
Best Regards,
Pragya

Delivery costs in stock transport order

Hi,
Check the following things
1. Make sure manual entry is allowed for Delivery Costs Condition
2. Make sure PO is not yet processed or no subsequent documents exists for the PO so that you can manually edit the PO using ME22N.

Freight Cost in Stock Transport Order

Hello:
We have requirement where we want to include freight charges into inventory valuation of material in receiving plant of stock transport order. Is it possible using shipment cost document of LE-TRA module?
If yes, How can I do it??
Also, I want have different pricing conditions like washing charge, Demurrage etc. These pricing conditions are included in pricing procedure. Can I post value of these conditions in different G/L accounts? If Yes then How??
Also I want to crate a multi dimensional freight rate condition using Distance, Weight. How can I do this?
I will really appreciate your response or any docs you have on this subject.

Hi dev,
We did something similar last week. To charge the freight cost to the receiving party we did a manual service entry sheet for that.
We created a separate Po with Transport vendor and the receiving plant and account type is Z shipment costing and service item description as intercompany freight.
You will specify the limit of the amount here, and specify the G/L account here. Now create the service entry sheet withthe freight amount and settle.
I think you can follow the similar thing with additional lines for your requirement for other charges.
Since we want let the receiving plant pay the freight we didn't create the shipment cost document of LE-TRA.
Let see if any other suggestions comes.

Freight cost within Stock transport order

Hi MM experts,
We have created a stock transport order to shift material from one plant to other plant and want to book the freight cost while receiving the same material at receiving plant during MIGO.
The problem we are facing is, that no accounting document gets generated by the system while doing MIGO against delivery created for STO
The prompt response for the same will be highly appreciated please.
Regards,
Pawan Khurana

Hi
I believe you might be using STO without delivery.
In case of stock transport order, the material document associated FI document will be generated during GI.
So, please display the GI document (mvmt type 351) and check for the FI document.

Shipment Cost Document (LE-Transportation)

Hi
After flagging the Transfer check box in the Settlement Tab in item details of shipment cost document(VI03), the Purchase order(ME23N) and Service entry sheet(ML81N) are automatically getting generated. PO and Service entry sheet numbers can be seen in Service Procurement tab.
Question 1: When I separetely look into PO, I am unable trace back the flow. I mean, there is no reference of Shipment cost number in PO.
Question 2: I want the service entry sheet to get on hold/not accepted status so that i can add the list of services performed by the Forwarding agent / service agent mentioned in Shipment cost document.
Question 3: Is there any configuration setting which makes only to create a PO automatically and not the Service Entry sheet ??
Note: This subject is a mix of Transportation (Logistics Execution) and External Service Management (Materials management). The moderator of this forum can take a call on placement of this thread under suitable section.
