KSII activity prices not calculation (actual)
Hi
During Actual Price calculation KSII following is error message :
All activity prices are manually entered
Message no. KP211
Diagnosis
All activity prices in controlling area HGC, fiscal year 2011, and version 0 were determined and set as manually entered prices.
In actual price calculation, all plan activity prices, meaning those calculated automatically (activity price indicator 1 and 2) and those set manually (activity price indicator 3), are treated as if they have been set manually.
System Response
The SAP System cannot calculate activity prices automatically.
Processing is cancelled.
Procedure
Check your activity type planning. To calculate the activity price automatically, you must set the activity price indicator accordingly.

Imdad
Hi Imdad
Go to KL02 and set your Actual Price Indicator so that it allows to calculate Actual Price through system
There are 2 such fields - Plan Price Indicator and Actual Price Indicator... I think you have presently chosen MANUAL price indicator

Activity price not getting updated at Production order
Hi All,
I have made activity dependent planning at cost centre and calculated the activity rate. The activity rate is showing correctly for the cost centre in KP26, but while confirming the production order (CO11N) the the activity price is not getting updated in production order. But material price is getting properly updated at production order.
Plz help me in identifying the possible areas of mistakes.
Regards,
BKDHi,
Please check the Period for which you have created the ht activity price is same as the period in the conformation. In the workcenter in which you are confirming please check whether the activities are assigned to the work center.

Moving average price not calculated properly
Hi,
For a consumable material moving average price(MAP) is getting calculated wrongly.
There are 2 goods receipts taken in Jan'08 and Feb'08 at a unit price of 1250 and 1450 INR.
Then there are around 10 Goods issues for a cost centre, Mvt type 201 taken for next few months.
The MAP value has been calculated properly after the Goods issues.
Again there was a goods recipt in Oct'08 for 1275 INR.
The goods issue done in Nov'08 has created a problem and it has calculated wronlgy i.e. instead of Rs. 800, the system has calculated issue price as Rs.3500.
No value has been changed in MR21. No PO's has been created between these days.
Can anyone help us...??
Regards,
RamyaHi Ramya,
You have informed in your thread that "for a consumable material..", If a material is procured for direct consumption, the consumption accounts in Financial Accounting are posted when the goods receipt is entered . The total quantity and value of existing stocks of the material are not affected. There is no Goods Issue.
Now, if you procure the material for stock, then changes in Material Valuation due to goods receipts and invoice receipts are carried out automatically (ofcourse manually also) when the relevant transaction is posted.
The extent to which the stock value changes depends on the sequence in which the goods receipts and invoice receipts are posted. The SAP System allows for both possibilities:
- When goods are received before the invoice, the stipulations in the purchase order are used as the basis for posting.
- When the invoice is received before the goods, the details on the invoice are used as the basis for posting.
So, please look into the Invoices and the relevant GR/IR clearing account details. You may get a clue there.

Actual activity price does not exist for cost center / activity type
Hi,
We are trying to upload the time sheet related data(number of hours an employee workred on a project) ect from Non SAP to SAP.
We have used a customized program and have loaded the data from se38.
All this HR data will be saved in CAT2
Later we transfer the time related data into SAP FI/CO using CAT7.
+When tested with a couple of employees time sheets, they got uploaded in SE38 proerly and when transfered it through CAT7 it was properly taking the hour*rate is cost and was reflecting in the respective cost element.
For a few time sheets in SE38 we were getting an error saying that the cost center(100501)/ activity type(EAT001) does not exist for 2010.
Hence we have taken, FY 2010, the cost centes and activity types in KP26 and have given the planned Activity as 1. No planned cost in KP06.
We have run the price calculation forr the FY 2010.
Then we were able to uplaod the time sheets, but when we tried to transfer the data through CAT7, it throws an error saying no activity price exist for cost center 100501/ activity type EAT001. If I ignore the warning an proceed, no amount is being calculated.
When uploaded employee time sheets before, all the cost were getting claculated and were entering into the respective cost elements, but now no amounts are being calculated and it is taking Zero.
When checked the previous years data i.e, 2009 all amounts are fine, in KSII I can see the activity quantity filled with some numbers in 2009, where from are they comming? I have checked KBk6 nothing was mentioned.
PLease assit
Regards,
shilpaHi
I never used CAT* though, but the error means that you need to maintain a activity price in KBK6 (Actual price)

Activity price calculation without activity not possible.
Hi,
I got the following error when I execute KSII ;
Activity price calculation without activity not possible.
Message no. KP230
Diagnosis
A program error occurred during activity price calculation. The SAP System could not determine the activity price for activity type 250902 in cost center 25093015 because only costs were entered, not activity quantities. The SAP System calculates the activity price by dividing the costs by the activity quantity.
System Response
The SAP System sets the activity price to zero.
Procedure
Inform your system administrator.
Please advice why the error occured?Hi SAP Genes,
I am finding an error in One of our Product line "HPI India" where our Cost of Sales Accounting actual COGS cost is very less in comparison with the standard as in the past.as it is marked, as expected as we set it up in the begining of the Year we use Standard Cost we use Aug-July FY, only we are facing this error for this FY 11-12.
Please take a look at the COGS for HPI. which is marked in Blue all these cost are Highlited, The actual COGS cost is very less in comparison with the standard as in the past.
And for rest of the Product Line item is working fine,
Please suggest me the cause, i am attaching the Analysis sheet as well for your guidance.

CK11N :: Activity Price calculations
Hi Friends,
During the costing run in CK11N transaction, we are facing a little bit issue with activity value calculation. System is providing accurate times as per routings and also displaying correct rate as mentioned in activity, but during calculation, it is making something else value.
e.g. for an activity according to routing system is calculating 0.04 Mins, which is accurate, and displaying activity rates as 148.89 Inr/Hr. According to calculations, system should calculate as
148.89 / 60 * 0.04 = 0.10, whereas system is generating the value of 0.15.
Can you please suggest how system is calculating the values and are we doing some wrong calculation or we have to make some another way for calculating the activity values.
Your kind response is appreciable.
Rgds, Krishan Raheja.Activity Price is calculated on Interative basis. See whether you have run the Actual Activity price calculation through TC: KSII.

Activity prices in KP26 used for actual and plan in version 0
We plan activity prices via KP26 in version 0. We then plan activity consumption via KP06, and run the plan reconciliation via KPSI.
During the year, we need to update the activity prices used in actual activity allocation. This price also comes from version 0.
When we change the activity price, the planned amounts change also. We are looking for a way to maintain a separate price for actual activity allocation.Ajay,
Your answer definitely sent me down the right path...thank you!
For other's benefit, these are the steps I took to make this work:
1) set the "Purely Iter. Price" indicator in plan version 0
2) import planning layout 1-N01 from client 000 (OBKF)
3) add planning area "Cctr: Manual actual prices" to planning layout SAPALL (KP34)
4) add planning layout 1-N01 to planner profile SAPALL (KP34)
5) create and run custom program from note 551309 to add cost element field to the input screen in KBK6 (SE38)
6) transport planning layout for planning area "Cctr: Manual actual prices" (OKEX)
Now we can plan a price in KP26, and maintain a different price in KBK6 which is used in the actual activity allocation.
Thanks again,

Activity Price in Cost Component Structure
Hi,
After costing run I have updated Activity Price in KP26.. I want to see latest activity price in Cost component structure e.g. Labour Activity and Machine Activity..cost for this a) Is it require re-costing run? b) how can we calculate activity price? e.g. total base qty/confirmed qty *no.of hrs. can you please corret me my formula I have maintain in KP26 capcity 500 and fixed price 10. I am able to see machine hrs. 6 in Resource data..
Thanks
SrinuHi Srinu,
Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
Use S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).

Higher activity price in cumulative run in Material Ledger
Hello,
Scenario:
The company is using material ledger and doing periodic run. After the periodic run, company post financial transaction and run cumulative run to take impact of financial transactions.
During cumulative run, system is using actual price of the last month and revaluation the cumulative qty with this price. Due to no catual activity, the prices are very high. Due to this, system is revaluating cumulative quantities of all months with very high price (of last month).
Please suggest to resolve this issue?

Actual Activity Price calculation; KSII
Hello,
I am trying to calculate actual activity price but the system does not calculate the price though I have soecified the appropriate price indicator '5' in the Activity type master record.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!Something doesn't seem right here. You created an Activity Price and plugged in the Plan Fixed and Variable price for the Activity in KP26.
So why are you running KSII now? KSII is for Actual Activity Price Calculation, run at month-end after all your POs have been closed and activities booked.
Can you provide additional info.?
Cheers. -
KSS2 KSII Actual activity price calculation
Dear Grus !
I want to carry out actual activity price calculation. I assigned activity type act 100 to act500 to different cost element, and also assigned splitting rule 12.
also entered activity plan price in KP26. cost element planning in KP06.
When I carry out KSS2, system distribute cost of one cost element to activity types according to the target cost maintained in KP06. I want the result that cost distributed as maintained in the splitting rule.
is there any specific configuration that i missed?
Thank you all ~
LynnCheck whether you have maintained the Equivalence number for the activity type and cost center combination in KP26.
Also you have to run the KSPI before running KSII, because KSII result is the iterative one.
Hope this will help you.

KSII actual activity price issue
Hi All
I want system to calculate the activity price automatically after running KSII and should update it in KBK6 so that i can revaluate production order with actuals by running MFN1. Now i have done all the configuration required and my plan cost are getting updated after i run KSPI and same is getting update in KP26 and are also showing in KBK6 under plan cost nd can be seen in Cost center reports under plan cost. Problem is with actuals
I have been reading the forum regarding this issue and all the inputs given by experts is been checked but i think iam missing something either a step in calculating the actuals or may be some tick in configurations
Kindly let me know the solution for an issue iam facing .
Thanks in advance
InvinHi Surya
I had already done the setting in OKEW and all splitting structure configuration. Base on that my plan cost is been distrbuted in two different activities. Planning has been done in KP06 and after doing that only i ran the transaction KSPI.
But ya you got a point thats what iam feeling that there is some thing missing in my config settings which i already mentioned in my earlier posts.
What is the prb iam not able to recoganize kindly if you can give me some detailed information what could be the reason?
For your information i would like to tell briefly what i did so far:
1. IN configuration i defined splitting structure Say T1
2. then by selecting T1 i cllicked in assignment and assigned splitting rule say T10
3. then by selecting T10 i clicked on "Selection for assingment" in this screen i mentioned only one cost element say 55000000 in "from value" "to value" and in activity type i mentioned "from" 106010 "to" 106030
4. then i clicked back icon and selected "Splitting rules" which is T10 in my case and method i mentioned is "12- Activiy quanitity" and checkd the box called "Wt- Weighting Indicator"
5. then i selected my rule T10 and clicked on "Selection for rules" and here i mentioned my version that is 0
6. then i did config setting "Assign Splitting Structure to Cost Centers" over here i assined this rule to only one cost center say 31010401 in parameters i selected version radio box and entered 0 there
These all what i did in configuration settings
Now after this i did planning KP06 entered my cost center that is 31010401 and only mentioned my cost element which is 55000000 with my activity type 106010 and 106030 here i didn't took 106020 in consideration. Now these values are coming in my cost center plan report on debit side and then i ran KSPI cost got splitted in both the activiy types in credit side in planning section of cost center but the prb is the same which you know Actuals are not coming
Kindly put a light what could be the reason?
Thanks

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 BDear,
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
