KP26 activity type / price planning

Hi ,
After giving cost center , activity type , fiscal year and period ,
1) How system automatically proposes plan activity , capacity , Priced fixed etc values ? From where it gets data ?
2)How values entered in plan activity , capacity , fixed price , variable price , price unit , plan price indicator etc affect /calculate activity cost ?
I know SAP help is available , If some one can explain with examples it would be great help .
Let us say I have work center WKCN and I have maintained capacity , scheduling and costing tab . I have maintained plan activity as 102 , capacity as 108 , price fixed as 80 , price unit as 00001 ....Please explain how the next chain of events happen .

In KP26, activity pricing will done for the combination of labor cost center & activity type assigned in work center. Here activity price will be maintained on hour basis or day basis.
In task list or order, work hours will be given for the internal activity. Here for the internal operations, work center & activity type will be defined.
If work hours is 15 hrs & fixed price is 80 INR (as per your example), the total activity cost will be 1200 INR for order (15 x 80).
Price Unit
The price unit is 10 for activity type "Drilling" with unit "Hours".
The price applies to 10 hours of drilling.
The price unit is 1 for activity type "Drilling" with unit "Hours".
The price applies to 1 hours of drilling.
Plan Price Indicator
001:
The price of the activity type is determined automatically based on the planned activity and the planned costs required for this plan activity quantity.
002:
The variable portion of the price is calculated based on the plan activity quantity. To determine the fixed portion, the system uses the capacity and not the plan activity quantity.

Activity Type/price planning

Hi all,
Can any one tell me how acitivty type price automatically update in KP26?
I know if we maintain the long term planning, we can get activity prices automatically, but I don't know the procedure.
Can any one help me?

Ramesh B

you enter long term planning in MD61 for a specific version, which you create in tc omp2
in tc ms31 you create a planning scenario and you link it to the before mentioned version
in tc omik you link a CO version for a planning year with the planning scenario
when the long term planning is in MD61 (check with MD79)
you run MRP for the planning version version (zc ms01)
after that you should be able to transfer planned activities to CO (kspp and kpsi)
calculation of the price is done trough tc kspi
cheers

Activity Type Price

Is it possible to maintain Activity Type Price in Currency other than Co Code and Cont Area?
If yes then How?

Hi,
Check with this.The activity amount you are planning in KP06 & KP26 with activity quantity & after run KSPI the rate will calculate & appear in KP26.
Now when you update the KP06 or KP26 it is based on the costcenter only.
Now do one thing even though your controlling area currency is different,now change the currency in cost center master data.Now do the update in KP06 & KP26 & try withh KSPI now check what curremcy it is updated in KP26.

In KP26 activity types allocation cost element displaying old cost element

Hi,
I changed cost element in activity types. But in KP26, activity types picking old cost element only.
Ex: I changed 9430000002 for Labour activity with old one 9430000001 but in KP26, while planning for Labour activity it is picking 9430000001. so its becoming problem while running CK11N.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Neeraja

Dear Neeraja,
While changing the secondary cost element for activity type, hop you got the following warning message.
So you must check whether the existing data is there or not for that activity type.
One more important thing.
The cost element field is a time based filed.
You can change this field for each fiscal year. For example, you can change the field content for a new fiscal year.

KP26 Activity type mass upload

How to upload details of cost center/activity type for current fiscal year?
while production confirmation following error came
*"a master data for cost center/activity type exists only for the year 2010"*
Thanks&Regards

Inform your CO colleague to do the same. It is not a PP activity to upload rates.
But if you're the CO person & want to know how to do it, then do a search in CO forum, there will be quite many threads on it.

Activity types with zero prices.

Hello all
I'm trying to to assign a cost centre to a work centre. I understand that we need to do the activity type price planning for the cost centre before we assign it to the work centres.
The situation is, the activivty types are not planned for few cost centres and the prices are not determined yet for those activity types for those cost centres for the moment. I'm trying to do lsmw to load work centres and it would not let me assign those cost centres as there is no activity type price planning done for those cost centres.
Is there any way that we can create these work centres and assign them to cost centres without actually doing any planning for the activity types.?
Many thanks

They need to have prices. Maintain 0.01 just so that you can load your master data.
Subsequently you can go back and change them to the prices they should be.

Costing for activity types in CS

Dear All
Hope you all are doing well.I want to perform costing on service order based on activity type for Customer Services. These activities should be assigned to service material. How can activities assign to service materail? Currently I have configured valuation catagories , assign cost elements to value catagories, define activity types,Price planning for activity type and assign these activity types to work center.
Your immedite response is higly appreciable
Thank you,
Nomi

Dear All
Really sorry for late reply! DIP Profile helps a lot in Configuring Quotation and Billing document. What I did was
1. I create activities with the help of CO consultant and give price to the activities type.
2. Setting performed for DISPLAY OF COST in Maintenance and Service       ProcessingBasic settings for these activities.
3. Assign Cost element for these activities.
4. Assign these activities type to the work center.
5. Define Services Materials for each activity type so that they can be displayed in my quotation and billing document.
6. Assign services materials to DIP Profile as such:
u2022     Define planned cost u2013 Total Record as source.
u2022     In Material Determination for profile I assign each of my service material to Transfer cost and Quantity and assign respective cost and revenue element of that activity type to the Service material.
When I create a service order with revenue u201CSM02u201D.I do not specify service material. I assign my activities types in operations and when I calculate costing it sums up all the revenue in costing for planned costs but when I create quotation and billing document for the service order it shows individual material for each activity type and its amount on item data and total is displayed in header data against EK01 condition type moreover planned and actual cost are displayed in service order.
The problem is, I have not create any condition record nor assign these condition type to my pricing procedure as value is arising from activity type.
Which condition types can be assigned to pricing procedure so that they can pick up the value of the activity type?
Thank you
Nomi

PS: planned costs by activity type

Hi experts,
I have a problem about an activity type.
I have created an activity type and planned it on a cost center. This activity type is inserted in a work center with standard formala key "SAP003".
I insert my activity type in an internal processing of WBE and I calculate costs for this internal processing.
When I see the cost report of internal processing, the system returns this message: "No costs were calculated for the activity".
Why? Is it correct?
Thank you
Nicola

Hi Ashish Jain,
I have planned activity type/price with the transaction KP26, but the system doesn't return any value in planned costs of WBE.
Why?
Thanks

How to add new row in KL02 trx - Activity type control data

Hi guys.
I am not a FI-CO consultant, but I want to add a row since KL02 transaction within a cost center, with a new fiscal year. When you access KL02 (change activity type), you set the activity type, then press Master Data and the basic screen appears. If you press the Display planning control button, you will see the "Display Activity Type Control Data" List. I wanna add a row for a specific cost center here, because the cost center I refer has not 2011 as fiscal year. I tried to use, since basic screen of KL02, use the Change planning control button, but when I set my cost center and 2011 as fiscal year, the Save button is inactive. Furthermore, I tried to press the Period screen and a message appeared "No data has been entered yet". So I dont know how to add one row for a cost center in the Planning control (Activity type control data) list of the KL02 transaction, specifically for an activity type. Do you know? Thanks in advance

Hi,
The list of cost centers in which the activity type is planned is given in KL02 under planning data. In order to add a new cost center to this, you need to enter the activity type in transaction KP26 for a particular year.
Goto transaction KP26
Give version - 0
from period 1 to 12
year - 2011
cost center - mention the cost center
Activity type - mention activity type
goto overview screen F5 and add the plan price for the activity in the cost center. This step will automatically add new row in the activity type control data.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Ram

Activity Type Master Data

In Activity Type master data we found these options allocation cost element feild.
1     Manual entry, manual allocation
2     Indirect determination, indirect allocation
3     Manual entry, indirect allocation
4     Manual entry, no allocation
What is its relevance? . When to select what?.
Please give example.

Hi,
We are using an activity type for Direct labour. eg of how we have defined the Master Data is below:
ATyp category - 1
1 is selected if Activity types use plan activity quantities. If you are going to plan the quantities for Activity type thru KP26 and then the Activity cost thru KP06 before calculating the Activity price thru KSPI, select 1.
Price indicator - 1
Act. price indicator - 5

Difference between types of plan data

Hi Friends,
BPS
1. Cost Center Planning: Costs and Allocations
2. Cost Center Planning: Activity Type Prices
3. Cost Center Planning: Cost Center/Activity Type Prices
4. Cost Center Planning: Cost Driver
For the above types of data, I like to understand what is the difference them.
For type 1, I understand it is for primary costs.
For type 2 and 3 they are related / same type of data. So what is the difference between them?
For type 3, seems like combo of types 1 and 2.
For type 4, I am not sure what it is about.
Questions I have:
1. Why is it only primary costs. Where is secondary costs?
2. Type 1 costs is identified by cost elements of costs centers. But type 2 is by activity, quantity and rates ( i think). And costs calculated. So, is this type of cost outside the cost calculation of type 1 such that to get wholistic cost picture, need to add types 1 and 2 at least? Thus, are they mutually exclusive.
3. Now, how does the same apply to type 4?
4. What is the purpose of type 3?
Hope you could advise me friends
Regards
Michael

Hello Michael,
Different types of CO planning relate to how an organization is using SAP Controlling functionalities. Activity represent typically internal labor/machine provided by one department (cost center) to a production order, project network etc. depending on the type of organization (production activities or project-driven operation etc.). Activity price would set per cost center for time of periods (months), representing standard price for valuation of actitivities.
More CO documentation attached:
