Maintenance Cost Budgeting

Hello,
I have created a maintenance Plan. the strategy is BPMWEK. Total of 52 weeks. I have inserted one operation in the task list which is assigned to the maintenance plan with time line of 2 hours.
When i do the maintenance cost planning using tcode IP31, the system is calculating total hours as 106 instead of 104(52 weeks * 2hours). Why is it so?

Narendra Bora

Check for Maintenance Cost Budgeting

Dear All,
From EHP 5, there is one button in Order create/change screen called "Check for Maintenance Cost Budgeting", but couldn't find any documentation regarding it. I want to know total functionality of that button. Can anyone help me regarding this?

From Solution Browser:
Functionality Enhancements
For critical, high-value maintenance orders, it is essential for the planner to check to see if enough budget provision is available for maintaining a technical object. Based on the results, the planner can request approval for the order and the cost controller can approve the work. The budget forecast is retracted from the maintenance cost budget. Actual utilization is calculated based on past orders and work in progress.

Maintenance Cost Budgeting - MCB

Experts:
Currently, I installed the MCB application on the BPS and PM BI building blocks. Now, I read some oss notes and nformation in help.sap.com, sap best practices, etc.
I must say, thhe planning areas from the business content are ready to fire up. There is a business process defined as follows:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/bpx-manufacturing?rid=/business_maps/guid/
Unfortuantely, the sub tasks under the main processes were not provided.
I am seeking a step by step instructions on the MCB budget process.
I would like to hear from people that already have implemented this tool.
Regards
RAP

Vidya:
I am sorry for this late reply. Unfortunately, SDN didnu2019t inform about your enquiry.
Anyhow, yes we implemented MCB and it is operational. Well, it has its own way of doing things. As a tool, yep it is OK cheap compare to an IP implementation.
Yes, I have some documentation on how to customise (available in the Internet), some demo on how to use the tool (not available in the Internet). Please disclose your Email address and I will send it to ya.

Cost budget report in local currency

Hello all,
I would like to use a statistical project to link maintenance costs to a budget that is maintained in PS. The functionality is all there. i'm now trying to find a proper report.
Currently I'm doubting between 2 options:
Option 1:
CJ30: budgetting in object currency
CJE0: reporting in Controling area currency. Translate to certain currency.
Problem: This always leeds to conversion issues:
budgetted 10000 ---> report shows 9940.
actual cost: 9000 -
> report shows 8340
Option 2:
CJ40 for planning on costelement level
S_ALR_87013543 in object currency
Problem: CJ40 is planned in Controling area currency
What I want is the following:
CJ30 or CJ40 in object currency
Report in object currency where.
Does anybody have an idea how to handle this?
thanks in advance,
Peter

NAG,
Thanks for your help. I have copied a standard hierarichal report and i'm now trying to add object currency as a key.
I have added the selection characteristic object currency in the characteristic tab, but that's not working. Ca you maybe gvie some more specific tips or if you have a certain link where i can find more details about configuration of a report?

Total Maintenance Cost

Dear All..,
What is the best way to capture total maintenance cost (Only material+service cost) in a single PM order.
- What if budget is mentioned in the order?
- How should be the settlements happend?
- Is it possible to capture service cost through budget and material cost just allocate to cost center without affecting the budget?
Waiting for your valuable inputs..
Thanks in advance...

Hello,
You can capture total maintenance cost (Only material+service cost) in a single PM order by using the WBS element in oreder.
In this WBS Element you can maintain Activity for Only material+service cost.
- What if budget is mentioned in the order?---> You can Control it by WBS release functionality.
- How should be the settlements happend?-->Settel the Order Against the WBS
- Is it possible to capture service cost through budget and material cost just allocate to cost center without affecting the budget--Using this WBS not possible.

Maintenance Cost Settlement on Profitability Segment

Hi, Can anyone tell me, that how can we settle our Maintenance Cost from PM to a Profit Center. In my company there is a Cost receiver defined as Profitability Segment and available in Settlement Rule. Can anyone explain, what does it mean. Are we settling out Maintenance Cost to profit Center directly or somewhere else.

Abhishek Sharma,
Yes, you can settle a Profit Segment.
Have a look at the Settlement Profile assigned to your order type (IMG: Maintain Settlement Profiles).

Error in CREATE_DRAFT_FINPLAN Plan Type: Approved Cost Budget. Before you c

I am getting below error when I call "pa_budget_pub.CREATE_DRAFT_FINPLAN"
api to create a COST budge
do I need to call any other API to create PLAN_TYPE.
pls. help me if anybody has an idea
Project: 60040107; Plan Type: Approved Cost Budget. Before you can create a plan version for the plan type, you must add the plan type to the project.

Can you add the plan type in the project or template? That would be better than an API call.
These need to run to perform a budget upload...

Is it possible to create financial plan for cost budget when ?

Hello Experts,
I am in situation where customer is currently using budgetory control enabled features and creating / maintaining cost budgets using oracle Form based budgets. Now after using for so many years, suddenly they choose not to use it. Instead they want financial plans to use for cost and revenue budgeting.
When We have run UPG : Upgrade budget type process it results into no data found and cannot able to help me in upgrading financial plan.
I think if the budgetory control is enable then we must need to create the cost budgets using Oracle Smart Forms. Am I rght?
If I am right then what would be work around? As I cannot ask them to create a new project & close exsting project because lots of PO & REQ are still open.
Lets say though they wanted to closed those PO & REQ and wanted to disabled budgetory control option on project they must need to diasable encumbrance acconting from Ledger. In that case what would be the overall impact? And what is gurantee whether system allow them to updgrade the budget to financial plan?
Has someone trapped and escaped from such kind of situation ever before?
Please help...
Thanks
:-)

Hi Dina,
The patch is nothing doing great but disabling the flag from the table which in turns enabling the budget types to be upgraded to financial plans very smoothly. Once updgraded, the budgets values are easily available in financial plans for reporting and further processing.
In this org, Customer is not using budgetory control functionality but in another org they are using it.
What I have learn in this situation is had it been all the budget types been upgraded first and later use in budgetory control, this situation would not have been arrived.
Thanks
:-)

Can I do plant maintenance cost planning in functional location wise?

Dear Experts,
My customer plans to prepare annual plant maintenance cost planning in "functional location" wise.
Can this be done?
If yes, what are the steps?
regards,
Abraham

Abraham,
You could do it indirectly in ECC using a cost centre for each FLoc. You can then plan the costs in the cost centre
