Is it possible to make a planning on a cost element group?

Is it possible to make a planning on a cost element group? I have created several cost element groups with the appropriate hierarchy. Now my aim is to try to allocate cost on an element cost group.
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Best regards
Pascal Cuenin

Yes you can - There are multiple ways of doing it.
If you have the BPS module, you can do it over there - If you want to do it in R/3, you can there too. Go to KPZ3 to view previous budget planning for Cost Center Groups.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,

  • Planning at cost element group level

    Is it possible to plan values  at cost element group level instead of at cost element level in CCA?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Yes it is possible. In t-code-KP06 Cost Center/Activity Input planning, we can select input values in the combination of individual Cost Center-wise OR Cost Center Group-wise and  individual Cost Element-wise OR Cost Element-wise. Here if you give Cost Element Group as your input value, you can plan cost for each Cost Element.

  • Planning for Assessment cost element

    Hi
    How we can do the planning for Assessment cost element ?? why it is different from other secondary cost element planning.
    Thanks
    Deepak

    both are two different things in term of business applications.
    When you know exact amount to be planned at cost center level then this is SCE planning and when you dont know exact amount then that can be done through assessment planning.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Planning on Cost Element group

    Hi Guys,
    I have a PLAN Query with costelement in the rows and i am extracting costelement group hierarchy from R/3 and using the hierarchy on the costement in the rows.
    Now i have a requirement users want to enter the PLAN data at the costelement Group level but NOT at the costelement level BUT the problem is COSTELEMENT GROUP is a TEXT Node.
    How do i handle this situation.
    Shashi

    Hi Shashi,
    Create 2 Char - 1) Cost Element Group & 2) Cost Elements.  Using External Hierarchy button in the char IO maintenance, select Cost Element Char as an external Hierarchy in the Cost Element Group char.   And then create a separate Hierarchy on the main basic char Cost Element Group.
    Before you build the hierarchy maintain master data for both char..
    Hope this helps.

  • Forecast for planning over the Cost element/Cost center with KP06

    Hi all
    I'm searching a idea: one of our chief controller need to insert a "forecast" of budget inserted over the various cost elements/cost centers using the transaction KP06. THe problem is that he don't want lost the budget because he can need the reload the previous budget data during the year if the actual situation change. Obvisiously the insertion of the forecast overwrite the budget data over the version 0. This forces us to download over a file the budget and archive it, and reload it eventually. But this solution, a part the programming effort, don't permit to have both the data at the same time in the system. Exist a pratical customizing solution in CO for manage a "forecast"? Our release is 46c.
    thanks
    Davide

    Thanks Pascal.
    Some questions (i dont' have a CO background ):
    >execute charge transferts and plan distribution in the new >version
    Can you explicate me these concepts (or the transaction used for make this, probably I know this but in italian the name is different)? The KP47 copy the value over the single cost element or only the total of cost center?
    >KP98 is the transaction to copy postings from version 0 to >another version. In this case version 0 is the template.
    Are you sure? The KP98 have the description "Copy by actual version to planned version", the KP97 "copy from planned to planned"
    thanks in advance

  • COST Element Based Planning

    Hello All,
    We are trying to plan cost of WBS Element based on cost elements.
    what we are trying to do -
    > CJ40, we want to plan on cost element level so on clicking the button "primary costs" (or via the menu: "Extras -> detailed planning -> Primary costs") we end up in an error message saying -
    Group INT-2 does not contain any entries
    Message no. K8004
    Diagnosis
    Group INT-2 does not contain any single values. You cannot use it in planning.
    System Response
    The SAP System rejects the planning layout and your entry.
    Procedure
    Use either a different group or enter values for group INT-2.
    CONFIGURATION for Planning Profile (T Code - OPSB) for the planning profile used in WBS Element Primary cost element group assigned is INT-2.
    Question2
    - Does cost element planning influenced by the cost element group assigned in the planning profile.
    - How to solve this error.
    Points assured.
    Warm Regards,
    Jatinder Bansal

    this is because in planning profile (Txn OPSB) you have INT-2 as cost element group and there are no cost elements assigned as pointed out by Venkat
    use transaction CJR2 instead of CJ40 and then plan for any cost element group or cost element that you already have

  • Planning on secondary cost element_cost category 21(internal settlement)

    Good Day
    I would like to know whether it is possible to do planning on secondary cost element with a cost category 21
    The internal cost element is used to settle order costs or project costs to objects in Controlling (CO), such as orders, profitability segments, cost centers, and projects.  I would like to allocate a plan value to the secondary cost element because the cost element is found in a sttlement profile for a Plant Maintenenance(PM) work order and at the period end the actuals is moved from PM order to the internal order settlement cost element.  However this is a problem cause the planning values is allocated to the primary cost element and the actual values are posted to the cost element with cost catergory 21 during order settlement.
    Please advise and if possible give me a workable solution to solve my problem.
    Regards
    Ropetra

    Good Day
    Thank you for you response.  I would like some more detail on the following:
    Please can you advise me as to where and how you set up the settlement for planned values on the secondary cost element_cost category 21(internal settlement)

  • How can I make a Splitting in Cost center accounting by Cost elements?

    Hi experts:
    I have defined a splitting structure and I would like to split the cost bettew fixed and variables cost.
    To to that I have defined two different assignments and in the selection for each assignment  I have completed the "Field label" with:
    In the first assigment I would like to have only the "fixed cost" and I did the next:
    1. Cost element (I have entered a Group) the cost which is in this cost element group is 4.000.0000 euros
    2.- Activity type (I have entered a Individual value)
    In the second assignment I did the same but with a different Cost element group (the original amount was 6.000.000 euros
    The problem is that when I have executed the transaction to do the split, the system split the 50% of the total cost (10.000.000 euros)  to each assignment.
    How can I make if I want that the system split the cost based only in the "cost element group" which are defined one of them for the "Fixed cost" and the another one for "Variable cost"??
    Are there any method which can split a total Cost for a Cost center based only in the cost amount for a cost element group??
    Thanks a regards!!

    sry. im not from the united states, and I never think to spell when posting on forums
    Your site's customers will think of it, and they will regard such errors as the mark of a sloppy vendor, not a sloppy webmaster.  And I'm not sure what being from the US has to do with anything.
    I want to position the container in the center while having absolute positioning, is that possible?
    I have doubts, I've seen a lot of people saying that u can't center a container with aboslute position.
    Then you should remove those people from your circle of trust.  Of course it's possible.
    Make the container relatively positioned, and centering with an explicit width and auto left/right margins.  The inner absolutely positioned elements will center along with their positioned ancestor.

  • Planning on WBS elements without cost elements

    Hi all,
    we are trying to implement the planning solution where users will be able to plan on individual WBS elements monthly but without providing a breakdown on cost elements. Standard SAP planning profiles allow to post plan values on WBS elements in annual view without cost elements. But when you want a monthly view the system you need to click on primary cost elements planning first.
    Is there any way to plan monthly but at cost object (WBS) level only?
    Many thanks,
    Roman

    Hi Eli,
    thanks for your response. We will be using budget functionality for budget purposes but at the same time we will need to use planning on different versions. I believe there are no versions for budget.
    One of the idea to minimize cost element planning is to introduce like a planning cost element to use with all planning postings and then include this into the same cost element group with the rest of cost elements for plan/actuals comparison reports.
    If you have something in your mind I would appreciate your input.
    Thank you,
    Roman

  • Cost Element missing in FAGLFLEXT for some PCA Plan records

    Hi Gurus,
    We have uploaded a PCA plan and can see the same in GP12NA. I see the planned values (GLPL) in FAGLFLEXT from SE16 under the correct accounts for 0L ledger for the correct company code and the fiscal year. I noticed a difference in the data
    1) For the revenue elements (11 and 12 Categories) the 'cost element' field is not getting populated in FAGLFLEXT. ('Account' is populated.) Is it expected?
    2) We have a Z library report that was built on FAGLFLEXT. The report uses the cost element groups to pull in the data and hence the 'Actual Values' are pulled in the report but the 'Plan Values' are missing. (Because of point1)
    Any pointers on how to fix this?Could you please suggest the places i would need to look to fix this?
    (I've checked that the plan vesion is activated for 2011)
    (The report has version Z2 as one of its parameters.)
    Regards,
    Erp.Warrior

    Thanks a lot for your replies.
    Waman: I've looked up the Note 983835 - NewGL planning: Cost element field (COST_ELEM) initial.
    This note talks about the Cost element not getting populated during planning. My question / confusion is in my case, the cost element is getting populated for some of them and not getting populated only for cost elem category 11 and 12.
    Is this note intended for this issue?
    Ajay: I've tried re-planning and still found the same issue. Thanks for your inputs. I'll analyse about the Note that waman has referred to and then may be go to SAP as suggested by you.
    Please let me know if any of you have any other suggestions as well.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    In case you have done detailed planning for your project you can specify whether you want to copy the detailed planning data using this check box.Planning done using cost elements is called detailed planning in PS. CJR2 is the transaction to do that. For more details you can hit F1 on the field and check.

    Thanks
    Kishore

    Hi Kishore,
    We can plan Sales Revenue through T-code KEPM-Edit Planning Data or through T-code KE13N by Uploading CO-PA-Sales Plan in Quantity and Revenue terms. Here we have to set  different Plan Layouts for Quantities and Revenues. After successfully uploading the data file,  we have to transfer the Sales Plan data to SOP in T-code-KE1E.  Then We can check the values by Co Code, Plant, Product-wise and Customer  in T-code KE25-Display Plan line items.

  • Transport of planning layouts and planning profiles (CO - Cost Center Acc.)

    Dear Experts,
    I am new to SAP CO and would like to transport new planning layouts and planning profiles. Therefore I clicked on transport and the following customizing task is added to my transport request:

    -> ke34

    The transport worked without error.
    Unfortunately none of the layouts arrives in test environment.
    Do you have any idea of what I could have forgotten?
    Thanks a lot!!
    Thomas

    After you have released the transport request, the objects of the request are available in the target system and the target clients. If you want to carry out a client copy within the same system, proceed as follows:
           1.      Log onto the system in the desired target client.
           2.      Start the client copy (Tools > Administration > Administration > Client Administration > Special Functions > Copy Transport Request; transaction SCC1) and enter the source client and the number of the transport request.
           3.      Then start importing the objects.

  • The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive

    Hi All,
    we are using the assembly backflush in the MTS REM process. we are need to do the reporting point backflush
    if we tick against the RP backflush. what will be the effect in the process while confirmation.
    i read the sap library . it say like
    The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive manufacturing.
    is it correct.
    Thanks
    VRaj

    Hi mangal,
    i did all the setting as you said. but when click on the reporting point.
    system thru error
    Error reading reporting point information
    Message no. RM111
    Diagnosis
    The repetitive manufacturing profile is set for the reporting point procedure. However, either no reporting points exist for the material or they are incorrect. Two common reasons for this are:
    The repetitive manufacturing profile has been changed in the current session.
    You have not defined any milestone operations in the routing.
    When creating the product cost collector, no reporting points were created.
    Procedure
    Two alternative solutions are possible:
    Assign a repetitive manufacturing profile with no reporting point procedure to the material in the material master record.
    Recreate the reporting points by recosting the product cost collector. To do this, the following prerequisites must be met:
    In the material master record, in the production version, you must enter a routing under either detailed planning (first priority) or under rate-based planning (second priority).
    Milestone operations must exist in this routing. The system ususally automatically creates the reporting points from these milestones when creating a product cost collector or when creating a production version.

  • Is it possible to make a .MOV file "un-downloadable"

    Hi there...
    I have a weird question - is it possible to make an online video (.MOV file) "un-downloadable"?
    I work at a college and a professor wants to post some videos within the school's public site. But, because of his concern with copyright, he wants to make it so the videos are impossible to download to the viewers' local machines.
    Is there any type of setting or code that can be put within the .MOV file that would allow this to happen?
    Thank you so much for any feedback you have!

    Any browser viewed QuickTime file will be "cached" (stored on the viewing computer). This is how browser work (they keep a copy of every page element) to help speed up viewing.
    QuickTime 7 (Mac and PC version) even allows the user to set the size of this cache so movies can be viewed while "off line".
    True "streaming media" (served with special streaming server software) is not cached on the viewing machine so no local copy is made. Streaming Server (QTSS) is free software available from Apple.
    What your school probably really wants is a way to prevent "copies" of your files being used. This is nearly impossible as anyone that views the file could use screen capture software to get a copy. Even the true streaming version.
    I use Snapz Pro.
    You could use some type of "log on" Web page to help limit the audience.
    You could also use "skin track" movies which make screen capture a bit of a chore.

    My example will open in QuickTime Player. Even Pro users are prevented from saving or editing the file because it is protected by an AppleScript droplet "Save As Un-Editable" and modified for Tiger and QT 7.
    Hope this helps you decide a plan.
