KSII doesn't recalculate activity rates

Hi,
I've taken the following steps in order to configure cost splitting through activity types:
Configured transactions OKEQ and OKET
Created an activity type in KL01
Created a splitting structure in OKES, defining cost splitting to a certain group of cost element and an activity type
Associated the cost centers to the splitting structure in OKEW
Planned activity rates in t-code KP26
and, after real expenses posts...
executed transaction KSS2 (and it seems to be ok. The activity type appears on the details screen, etc.)
executed transaction KSII (as a test)
But, the real price isn't recalculated. The activity price planned (KP26) was:
Capacity: 176h - Unit.P $ 200,00.
Real posts were:
5h of activity (that generated posts of $ 1.000,00), and $ 5.500,00 of fixed costs in the period.
So, I'm trying to recalculate the activity rates in order to split the other $ 4.500,00 not alocated.
But, KSII doesn't update the activity rates. It keeps the planned values.
Is there any other configuration I'm forgetting?

All the relevant screens...
KL02
OKES
REPORT
KSPI
KSS2
And after KSII...
KBK6
KSTB

Activity Rate change

Hello Gurus,
I want to know how to change the activity price rate manually and also
Last month production order also I want to change the new activity rate (confirmed orders)
Can anyone give me the clarity on this,
(because I have confused on the below t code KP06,KP26 ,KBK6,KSII,KPSI,MFN1)
Regards
Sri

Hello Sri
Changing the price in KP26 now will not serve any purpose. You can not run the standard cost run at back date. The standard cost takes the planned activity price (if so configured). So your standard cost will remain the same. As far as charging to production orders is concerned, this will be taken care of by the revaluation. It does not make any difference if you update the KP26 plan and then confirm the production orders and then run the revaluation or you run the revaluation now. The total amount of the activities will be the same.
So I suggest you run the cycle for revaluation at actual prices rather than changing the KP26 rate. For the next month you may update the KP26 plan. The T. Codes you use for the entire cycle are as below:
KSU5 Execute actual assessment cycle (If you have assessment cycles defined)
KSS2 Actual cost splitting
KSII Actual price determination
CON2 Actual revaluation of orders
This is a month end process.
Trust this helps.

ACTUAL ACTIVITY RATE CALCULATION

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to calaculate actual activity rate based on plan hours......
I know that we can splitt the actual cost based on plan hours by selecting splitting rule 22...
Now im doing actul activity rate calculation through ksii...
Then system considering actul hours confirmed in production for actual activity calculation.....
Pls suggest me.
RAM

Thank you for prompt reply.
Suppose this month we have produced only . 10 finished products.... But actual capacity is 20..... What ever cost moniterd by the production cost centers will be loaded on total 10 products only at the time of revaluation of production orders if we calaculate actul activity rate based on actual hours....... so the cost of the product is getting increased... so that he want to calculate actual rate aslo with planned hours..... Is there any other solution for this..
Pls suggest me ...... its very urgent.

Trying to nstall Photoshop CS2 on a new PC with Windows 8.1? Adobe uploaded me a version that doesn't require activation, but it doesn't work!

Trying to Install Photoshop CS2, which I bought several years ago, on a new computer with Windows 8.1? Adobe uploaded me a version that it says doesn't require activation, but it doesn't work!

Your advice to use the serial number provided by Adobe is right on point.
The only thing special I've done that's not typical is that I have UAC disabled, which does serve to make a system more compatible with older software (and with old geeks like me who prefer to be full-time admins).
When I installed Photoshop CS2, it just went in and worked. I didn't think twice about it.

Material ledger activity rate revaluation account determination modification

Scenario:
SAP ECC 617
Material ledger activated with activity rate revaluation (i.e. cost center over/under absorption posts to ML and not to production orders)
Standard SAP setup has PRV transaction key used to post both multi-level price differences to inventory and to capture the offset to the cost center clearing entries (GBB-AUI) causing the values to get comingled in the same account
Question:
For reporting purposes I would like to determine a unique account for the activity rate revaluation entries. There is no relevant general modifier available for transaction key PRV. Is it possible and practical to modify table T169A for a specific value string / field name combination that represents this material ledger transaction? If so, what is the combination? Or will this cause major issues with ML processing?
I'm trying to find a creative way to fill this gap without account substitution.

Hi Eric,
This is an interesting one.
Modifying value string might be an option but in my opinion is quite a serious "brain surgery" on the system :-).
You may want to try another option.
In SPRO -> Controlling -> General Controlling -> Organization -> Maintain Versions
for version 0, Controlling Area Settings, Settings for Each Fiscal Year in tab Price Calculation there is field Revaluation.
One of the options there is 'Own business transaction'. With this option posting to sending Cost Centre resulting from actual activity price revaluation will be posted with different Business Transaction (although same secondary cost element as original activity allocation).
In reports you can separate postings based on Business transaction.
It definitely works for Activity Update 1 (revaluation of production orders).
I'm not sure if it works for Activity Udate 2 (no revaluation of production orders).
Please let us know the results of your investigation.
Regards,
Szymon

Planning Layout for Activity Rate

Hi
My Client is a German Company. Controlling Area currency is EURO, It has operations in India also.
For India, required to create BDC for Activity rate planning.
1. Is it necessary to create separate Planning Layout for INR currency?..I did not find any currency in standard layout.
2. Please explain how it works. whether it takes Cost Center currency or Controlling Area currency?
Regards
Pradeep Veer
Edited by: Pradeep Veer on Feb 9, 2011 7:13 AM

Hi,
The standard setting for the leading currency plans the transaction currency for costs and the controlling area currency for prices. This is the Standard design. Please review 100379 & 183556 for further information on this.
Please pay attention to the following section of note 100379:
'Note: you can only change these settings in the following Transactions: KP97 (as of Release 3.1I) and KP98 (as of Release
4.6), as well as CP97 and CP98 (as of Release 4.6C). However, you should only carry this out after you have taken Note 183556 into account.'

Could you confirm that ALAC doesn't play sample rate of 96 kHz?

Hi,
Could you confirm for me that ALAC doesn't play sample rate of 96 kHz? Because my codecs converter, regardless of what sampling I set up gives me 44.1 KHz in ALAC.
Thanks

Really? Can you back up that. It should be easy to prove. if it really is so. What kind of files don't fulfil that?
Newme,
Simple enough to demonstrate. If you take a WAV 96/24 and use iTunes to convert it to Apple Lossless and then back to WAV (using "Automatic" setting in both cases), you end up with a significantly smaller file. Something gets lost.
Asking this because DSD files can't actually be tuned into other formats without losing data. Whether there is actually anyone that can hear the difference is another matter of course :-)
Wasn't referring to DSD, but it is an interesting question. The usual lossless formats, ALAC and FLAC, are designed to improve on the inefficiencies of PCM encoding as is used in WAV, AIFF, and audio CDs. DSD is a horse of a different color, as it is not PCM based at all.

Process after planning activity rates in CO

Hi:
My question may sound very basic to you but please bear with me as i am new to this process. I have defined planned activity rates for two cost centers in CO.. Now i want to do the PP process using these cost centers. These cost centers contains rate for FOH,VOH and LABOR. I want to do PP process because only then i will be able to create standard cost estimate run and actual price calculation with variance analysis. We open process order as we are in fast moving consumer group company. Please guide me through the process. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Br

Hi,
If standard cost estimate is your goal, process orders have nothing to do with it.
Afterwards, you will be able to do cost object controlling, to control production costs.
These subjects are vast, and I don't think that you should expect to learn them in such a forum. Nevertheless, provided that your CO settings for standard cost estimate exist and are correct, on the PP side you need to have the so called "quantity structure", which basically covers your variable costs; in other words, a BOM and a Master Recepie.
In the phase of a MR you use a resource; you should link the cost center to the resource, and the avtivity type to the phase standard values.
Then you are able to run the SCE. There's also a later procedure of releasing these estimates.
Production cost controlling is even more complex.
In general, I think that it is a good idea that you get help from a knowledgeable person in the beginning.

Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium, it cost more than €2,000. When I recently tried to re-install it due to having to reformat my hard drive I could no longer activate it over the phone or online.
When I rang the help number it directed me to the downloadable versions that don't require activation. Great! UNTIL I realise Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional is only available for Windows as a download.
Where is the download for the Mac Version as it not included in the bundle either. This is extremely urgent. Thank you in advance.

To maswatson
The answer to your question of March 12, 2015 – "Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation[?]" – is … nowhere. That doesn't mean it's not available to you, however. I have successfully installed several CS2 programs and Acrobat 7, on two computers.
The hard drive on my MacBook Air crashed recently. After a new drive was installed I had to reload various programs, including CS2 Premium. I used the original disks and the serial number on the package.
When I tried to open InDesign, however, I got an "Activate Using the Internet" message which led to an "Activation Server Unavailable" message that gave me three options, the last of which was "Click the Phone Activation button to activate the product over the phone." I called the toll-fee number and heard the following recorded message: "We no longer support activation issues over the phone."
So I searched the Web, figuring that others had encountered and solved this problem. Eventually, I found "Creative Suite Help / Download Acrobat 7 and OS2 Products" at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I also found "How to Fix Adobe’s “Licensing for this product has stopped working” Error by Aaron Nelsen at http://hijinksinc.com/2010/01/20/how-to-fix-adobes-licensing-for-this-product-has-stopped- working-error/. He writes "… you MUST delete adobe_00080000_tsf.data and adobe_00080000_event.log" which is found in /Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/FLEXnet. So I did that.
I also deleted Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, and Photoshop CS2 from my Applications folder. I did not delete Acrobat 7 or GoLive.
After clicking on "English" at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#, I downloaded Illustrator CS2 for Mac, InDesign CS2 for Mac, and Photoshop CS2 for Mac. I was not able to download Acrobat 7 because the only option is for Windows. As you know, there is no download for Mac.
Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, and Photoshop CS2 all opened without any problems. When I tried to open GoLive, I got the same "Activate Using the Internet" message I got at the outset, when I tried to open InDesign. I proceeded, and now have a 30-day trial. The same limitation has been placed on Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, because I downloaded them, whereas GoLive was installed from the CS2 disks.
Next, I opened Acrobat 7.0 Professional – the one installed from the original CS2 disks. It works fine.
BOTTOM LINE: If you want Acrobat 7.0 Professional, install Creative Suite using original CS2 disks, then delete the other CS2 programs from those disks. If you want Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, Photoshop CS2, and others, download them from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I am hoping this explanation will help you. I feel great sympathy for you because the "answers" you received have been obtuse and clearly less than helpful. (I requested a "Yes," "No," or "Don't know" answer to a very straightforward question, but didn't get it.)
My experience tells me that the answer to your question "Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation[?]" – is … nowhere, but you don't need to download it. It's on the original disks and it does not require activation. That's why Adobe did not included it with the Windows version at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I hope this answers your question, solves your problem, and ends your frustration.

Activity rate mismatch

1) I have set a manual price for the labour hour activity as 50.30 (Fixed 48.30 and variable 2) GBP however the standard cost estimate has calculated a total value of 937.20 for a quantity of 30 hours which means the activity rate used is only 31.24
Why is there such a mismatch?
2) How can i check the labour hours activity rates used in the CK11N itemization view?

Activity Rate Planning

Hi,
i wanted to know that is there any way where system proposes the activity rate for the next month.
For Example..we have maintained activity Rate for Period 1 in KP26, for the next period i.e. 2 before updating the same in KP26 is there any functionality available where system proposes the activity Rate for the next period.
If it exist the how it works.
Regards,
Vivek

HI,
what do you mean "propose"? You can do the CO-OM planning process and calculate activity rates (maybe for the whole fiscal year) or enter the rate manually for all periods of a fiscal year at once, but a "proposal" from SAP does not exist for your next months activity rate.
Best regards, Christian
