Maintenance cost per production output

Dear All
I have to create report based on Maintaince cost per production output
and this report is company code wise and Fiscal year period wise ,
now i got two different cubes from where i can get that cost
1) 0PM_C01 for Maintenance Cost
2) 0PC_C01 or IC_C03 for Production output in tonnes

Hi,
If the selections used for the query are available in both the cubes,ie company code and fiscal year, then just create a multi cube over it containing both maintenance cost and production output. Map it to the correct fields from the cube and create a report with formula to calculate maintenance cost per production using maintenance cost from 0PM_C01 and production output from 0PC_C01 or IC_C03.
Regards ,
Shyam.

Plant Maintenance - Cost Per Operation

Does anyone know if there is standard business content I can use to display the cost of plant maintenance orders by operation e.g. Operation 010 Cost £10. I can see in in 0PM_C01 that I can get costs per value category but I want it by order line item.
Thanks

Post advertising costs as per product lines

i need to capture cost and revenue as per the product lines(divisions in sd) for tangilble and intangible goods, if i add more profit centers based on product lines then i need to create at least 96 more profit centers.
is there a possibility to generate a report through sd for product line wise report where the cost of goods sold and revenues can b captured product line wise ?

Hi,
I don't think you can get such a report out of standard SAP SD module. What does a Product line represent in SD? A sales area? As you know, Revenue is stored PR00 (usually) conditon type and COGS is stored in VPRS condition type, you could consider creating a custom ABAP report to get margin report based on Product line using these details (table VBAP, KONP etc.,).
Othewise, if CO-PA is an option which you could explore, then suggest CO-PA, for a more flexible/granular reporting.
But, I did not understand the relevance of your thread subject 'post advertising costs as per product lines' with your post. So, as per you, is 'Advertising cost' and COGS are same?
Hope this helps.

Actual Cost of Product with Price control "S"

Dear Gurus,
Is there any report available where we can know the Actual Costs of Materials with Price Control "S".
In the material master field the actual cost in the "Moving Price Tab" of the material with Price Control "S" is available, but is there any report available for plant level?
Thanks & Regards,
Amit Dhanurdhari.

Hi Amit,
-- Under Standard Costing, you value your inventory at Standard Costs and any variances in Production Process will be settled to Price Difference Account. You will not be able to find out actual cost per unit. In Multi-level BOM scenario under Standard Costing (CO-PC), variances don't get rolled-up to the next level, only costs get rolled-up.
-- Under Actual Costing - Material Ledger, You will be able to find out the Actual Cost per Unit. Variances get rolled-up to the next level.
To explain difference between Standard Costing in CO-PC and Material Ledger briefly....
You have given Price Indicator as "S" in the material master of "X" material (semi finisher or finished) and you are doing Standard Cost Estimate for arriving at Standard Cost per tonne. Let's say, the Standard Cost per tonne is Rs.1000/-
Now, when you created production order for 10 tonnes and received output of 10 tonnes (GR). But the total cost incurred on that production order is Rs.1100/-. In this situation, actual cost per tonne is Rs.110.
But, because you are following Standard Costing, When you post GR against this Production Order, inventory will be posted at Standard cost only, i.e., Rs.1000/-. and the balance of Rs.100 will be posted to Price Difference Account. (and parallally the variance of Rs.100/-) will flow to COPA.
So, it is clear that, though, at Production Order level you can see the actual cost, at "material" level, you will not be able to see the actual cost per tonne.(as long as you are using only Product Costing and Standard Costing)
Alternatively, if you maintain Price Indicator as "V", you will able to get the Actual Cost per tonne at material level, but there will be no scope for establishing standard cost and comparison with actual thereof.
But, the same is possible if you are using Material Ledger (CO-ML). If Material Ledger is active, you will be maintaining "S" in the material master, still, the variances will be settled inventory and you will be able to get the actual cost per tonne. (bothe Standard cost estimate, actual cost per tonne will be possible).
Pls revert back for further explanation

HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 - The Really High Cost Per Page

On February 6, 2014 I bought an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 all-in-one, including the OPTIONAL tray 2.
I use it in my home office with five computers. One is a new Apple MacBook Pro OS 10.9.5, another is a three year old HP Laptop on Windows 7, and another is a five year old Dell Desktop still on Windows XP.
I bought the printer to . . . print. I thought I might be a nice convenience to write business correspondence and print an envelope, without the need to change paper, or otherwise touch the printer until I was ready.
The printer is advertised, even in the user manual and box, to be capable of 1200 dpi printing, even though it uses the below average PCL Print Driver and not Post Script.
The printer works fine, but the HP driver and utility software must be written for a different printer. If I put HP Inkjet 20# paper in tray 2, and #10 envelopes in a locked tray 1, I can print at the "best print setting" which still isn't great. But it works.
If I put HP Premium Presentation Paper 32# paper in tray 2 ($8.00 per 100 sheets), and the same quality #10 envelope in tray 1, the printer software loses it's mind. It performs the same on all five computers.
When I try to print a business letter and envelope the print driver and HP utility grays out tray 2, and it grays out the "best" print setting. In short the only choice is NOT to use HP brand papers, or remove tray 2, print the business letters, and then remove the 8.5X11 HP Premium Paper, install envelopes, and print again. Not what I had in mind.
I've been in touch with HP as the printer is still under warranty. They offered a replacement, that will have the same printer an utility problems, or to buy it back at $175.
I bought the original printer for $249, tray 2 for $125, and 5 XL print cartridges for $149. That is a total of $588. If I sell it back to HP check out the cost per page. At $588 - $175 = $413/2742 total pages = 15 cents a page! Owch!!!
There is nothing wrong with the printer as such. The problem is the HP Utility and Driver. When did HP stop using a traditional warranty, and give pennies on the dollar, when they clearly have a software problem, they refuse to fix?

Hi there @Oceankey , welcome to the forums
I understand your Officejet 8600 is no longer copying an entire page from the scanner bed.
I am unsure of which troubleshooting steps you have tried for this problem however, I would suggest updating the firmware (if needed), power resetting the printer and to ensure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help greatly.
Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

Actual cost of Production Order settled to Fixed Assets

Dear all,
My client is doing in-house production of moulds (internal order suggestion is not accepted by the client) for which
they have the following
1. BOM
2. Machine hour
3. labour
4. overhead etc
5.plan value
6. actual value
Can i settle the actual cost of production order to Fixed Asset ?
If yes
what are process kindly give me if any process other then the below
1.production order created
2. settlement profile - FA is settlement optional
3. allocation structure
4. Asset created
5 define asset in settlement rule
Kindly give me your valuable input
regards
elango

Hi,
Although i am not CO expert , please check with your FICO consultant who are expert before make the final call.
During settlement to a G/L account or a fixed asset, the system ignores additional account assignments that were manually specified in the distribution rule.
Based on what i know .
you can stipulate that settlement may be made to cost centers and orders, but not to fixed assets.
The Settlement profile is something that you need to create a settlement rule to settle the actual costs of a sender object.
About the Settlement rule is something that contains the distribution rules for the sender. It will define how the way to settle the cost.
Allocation Structure
In the settlement structure you combine the primary and secondary cost elements into groups, in which debits are then posted to the sender objects. For each group, you specify whether (for settlement to a given receiver type) settlement is performed
by cost element or using a settlement cost element.
For example, you might use settlement cost elements:
To document the purpose of an order (such as, repairs or maintenance)
To reduce data volumes (you can combine a number of debit cost elements
under one settlement cost element).

What are options for applying non-inventory costs to production orders?

We have a non-inventory costs that need to be assigned to product produced on production orders. There are two processes -make-to-order and make-to-stock.
Currently we use activity rates to apply labor and burden costs to our production. We use separate cost centers where needed to ensure that we have sufficient granularity to our activity rates applied.
We have a few specific issues where we need to understand the options for applying costs -
1) We have freight and duty costs related to inbound raw material that we want to assign to our final product. The amount assigned may be either a specific amount (or a specific amount per model), or a % of the total cost on that production order.
2) We have material on the production order bill of material that is called out by quantity and we are using discrete backflush, however we have found there are issues with the accuracy of the quantities. We want to have this product ordered using KANBAN (bin ordering) and have the value relieved from inventory when the bin is issued to production. The cost on the production order is envisioned to be an average amount for the product - or an average amount by model.
3) We want to have a portion of cost for production scrap included in the cost of each product produced. (similar to freight and duty).
In all cases- the amount can change depending on analysis from accounting regarding freight and duty costs (these fluctuate depending on the cost savings we achieve with combined loads and depending on the amount of out of country sourcing), the scrap amount may change periodically depending on the initiatives to reduce scrap on the production floor, etc.
We currently use three activity types, labor, burden and tooling. It is my understanding that there is a limitation in SAP that keeps us limited to 6 activity types.
My questions are:
Are we limited on activity types? these are an option to apply additional costs, but may not be the best option if we want to change the amount applied based on model or apply as a percentage.
Are there other options for applying costs that we can explore? I want to be sure we take into account the various options available before we start down a specific path.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

As clarification- we are using standard costing for our raw material. We currently accumulate the incoming freight in a balance sheet account. This is treated as part of our inventory. We have considered using an activity type with a activity added to the BOM to apply the cost to the production order. Then we could use the secondarly cost element data to book an entry to relieve the freight account on the balance sheet.
Because we use standard costing- access to see production order variance is critical and must be maintained in any process we select. We also use COPA reporting- so the costing information must be able to flow to COPA for the specific orders/products/serial numbers.
We are doing make to order (production order / sales order specific combination) but also looking at a make to stock process - so the method to apply costs must take both of these configurations into consideration.
Rajneesh - you mentioned that I am limited to 6 activities in a work center- but does that mean I can have more than 6 activity types in SAP but only 6 activities in a work center/cost center combination?
Thank you.

Transfer of Costs in Product Cost Collector to COPA

Dear Experts,
Please can you advise me on this current issue I'm having. Below is a description of problem:
Customer is currently using report designed in COPA (KE30) to derive P&L report for using Plant as a characteristic.
This was being done at a time when Product Costing functionality was not being used
All costs (administrative, sales and production costs) were being collected in cost centers
At end of month assessment of cost center values to COPA is executed (KEU5)
Customer is then able to derive P&L report per Plant characteristic
However with implementation of Product Costing, all Production related costs are captured in Product Cost Collectors and not Cost Center
Hence we have no way of assessing or transferring total production costs from Product Cost Collector to CO-PA
We have tried to configure FI/MM PA transfer structure (KEI1) and default account assignment (OKB9) for automatic transfer of costs on goods receipt/issue, however this is not working because the product cost collector is used as the default account assignment for the transactions
So far only material cost valuation of sales/billed materials are possible (which does not address concern)
As a result we have a gap and customer is unable to derive P&L by Plant from CO-PA.
Can you advise if there is a way out, in order to have all Production Cost transferred to CO-PA.
Thanks,
Ola.

Hi Ola
Your Cost centers would be categorized as below
1. MFG Cost Centers (In Plant)
2. Service Cost Centers (In Plant)
3. Few Cost centers (outside plant) Eg: Sales, Marketing, Sales offices etc
At period end
1. Allocate the Costs from SER CC to MFG CC using Distribution / Assessment cycle.
This will make SER CC as zero
2. Calculate actual activity price in MFG CC (KSS2 / KSII)
3. After this, do revaluation of PCC using CON2.. This will make balance in MFG CC as zero
4. Allow the Variances to be updated to COPA by ticking the "Variances to Costing based COPA" in your settlement profile
5. In short, what remains for you to allocate to COPA is the 3rd category of CC.. i.e. you should allocate those CC to COPA whose cost is not included in the cost of product using COPC module

Custom SAP report used to display an average standard cost per material.

Hi All,
I need to implement a report with the following functionality,
This is a custom SAP report used to display an average standard cost per material. Standard cost data is stored in SAP at the Material/Plant level. This report will gather the individual Standard Costs at each applicable plant (restricted by selection screen input and additional logic specified in more detail in the u201CReport Fieldsu201D section) for applicable Materials (restricted by selection screen input; if not specified all materials should be returned) and calculate an average standard cost for each material. The corresponding Currency and Base Unit of Measure will also be displayed.
Additionally the relevant u201CCommodity Code/Import Codeu201D information should be displayed for each material returned. This attribute is also stored at the Material/Plant level. To determine the value of this field for each relevant material, the report logic must retrieve the values stored for each plant. If all values are the same, the value can be output to the report. If not all values are equal, a message u201CNot Consistentu201D should be output. It should be noted that if all values are u201Cnull,u201D a null value should be returned in the report.
Can any one provide me with sample code for the same??
Thanks Debrup.

Manufacturing cost per unit

Hi.. Experts.
My client is in producing Perfumes (Process manufacturing- chemical Industry) and Production wants to know the cost of per unit manufactured in the plant/plants and explains this in form of the following points.
To arrive at manufacturing cost per unit we need to know
1) Per Unit cost of materials inclusive of transport (Raw & packaging material)
2) Conversion cost per unit which will include
a) Energy & other utilities expenses
b) Labor cost per unit (days wages of all in production / units produced)
c) Cost of quality--- including testing outside and chemicals used for testing in plant plus salary per day of people engaged in testing in q.c department.
d) Cost of administration-- employees engaged as well as office expenses like telephone,transport
Please consult me how to configure the above requirements in sap business one.
Regards
Rakhi

hi raakshit
The first point is where would u like to capture these records if its at the time of production order the it is easy
u can create UDF for all related items u have mentioned and fill the value manually and then in the production order either u can write the value manually or u can run A FMS which will sum up all the value and also the value of BoM ITEMS and would reflect in the total field
or if u wana add it in teh sales order i.e u want to show it at the time of sales then u can add all the items in the freight setup
Hope this would suffice your concern.

Scrap costs in production

Hello,
Is there any possibility to post scrap costs during production against the standard costs until the scrap occured without using a special material for making the scrap posting?
For example:
Standard cost production: 1000
No of operations: 4
St cost Op 1: 300
St cost Op 2: 100
St cost Op 3: 400
St cost Op 4: 200
Suppose that scrap occurs at Op 2. In the confirmation we confirm the scrap and want to have the costs posted in FI and CO at 400 per piece.
Which settings do we have to maintain in order to make this possible (without creating new materials).
Thank you for the information in advance
Regards,
Johan

If you do not want to consider the scrap qty. in operations but want to consider it only for costing purpose, then create a costing BOM i.e. usage 6. In this BOM you can maintain the scrap. Also ensure the costing variant which you're using has a priority of costing bom over say production bom or universal bom.
Discuss this with your costing person as well.

Check the cost per hour of a work center

Hi all.
I need to make some calculations to determine if a change in work tools is justified. Basically, on our CNC machines, we have one operation that requires 2 tools of lower value (drilled hole using a bit, tapered at the top with a reamer). Tech department has proposed we switch to a new single tool that replaces the 2 previous, resulting in a faster operation time (drill bit with reamer). I'm sorry, I don't know the correct name of the tools in English, but that's beside the point anyway.
The tool is more expensive than the 2 previous tools combined, but allows for a larger number of holes to be drilled compared to the old drill bit, but less tapers than the actual reamer can do. Assuming the bit does about 1000 holes before needing replacement and the reamer about 5000, I divide the total cost of the tool by the amount of operations it can perform and I get a aprox. cost per hole for each tool. The new tool does about 2000 then needs replacing. Being more expensive, I have worked out that at it's most basic level, the cost per hole is a bit higher for the new tool.
Now, however, I need to factor in the gain from the time reduction. For that I need to know the machine cost per hour.
My question: what TA can I use to check the total running cost for a workplace, given a specific time period, or the cost for a predefined time period? I was thinking of somehow using MM03 for that, but I can't since the TA seems to be pulling a production variant that involves several conventional machines instead of the variant that uses the CNC. If I could somehow get MM03 to pull the correct production variant for calculations, then I could maybe use that. Any ideas?
All help greatly appreciated.

Hi Nuno,
Cost esitmate is done using CK11n.
Cost estimate display using CK13.
The rate per activity can be maintained in KP26 against the cost center.

Record results per Product, not per inspection characteristic

Dear,
Is is possible, in transaction QE51N to record results per product (or serial number) rather than per characteristic?
Today, I can only see a result recording per characteristic. For example: for inspection characteristic 1, I enter all the results for each product, then I go to inspection characteristic 2, etc. I would like to enter my results per products, i.e. for product 1: enter results for inspection characteristic 1, 2, ..., and then do the same for product 2, etc.
Is that possible?
Regards,

That is what I do. I execute the transaction for one particular inspection lot. However, when I enter into the record results screen for this particular inspection lot, I first have to "enter" into one of the master inspection characteristic, and then start recording per product (or serial number). What I would like to have is to "enter" into one product (or serial number), and for this particular product, enter all the master inspection characteristics I have previously defined.
If you still don't see what I mean, can you give me your e-mail so that I can attach an image
Oh yes, and by the way, is it possible to execute the transaction qe51n based on the criteria "production order" instead of on the criteria "inspection lot" or "plant" or whatever. I know that you change it in the layout, but I really can't find the production order on the "hidden fields"

Is traversal calls neccessary in VCS maintenance cost?

Hi all,
I'm looking at a quote for a VCS control and pondering all the maintenance costs.
I can understand it for hardware and various software options but do I really need to pay maintenance for the non-traversal call licenses?
Is that strictly neccessary in order to get support and software upgrades for my units?
Cheers!
Jonas

Yes, you should purchase the maintenance for the complete product (VCS + all the licences).
Cisco could chose to not support your VCS if it was only partially covered by support and maintenance and didn't include coverage on all the installed licencing.
The same goes for TMS, and the additonal Device Licence packs - they incur an additional maintenance cost as well, and while you could just take out maintenance on just the base TMS product, if you're not paying for support for the complete product, Cisco could chose not to support it, or charge you for any time spent.
You'd have to check the fine details of the wording on the actual maintenance contract you sign up on.

We all know licensing cost of OWB is zero as it comes free with oracle DB....
can anyone help me in calulating the maintenance cost of OWB.....what all needs to be considered.
Thanks

Hi
Not all of OWB is free, see the following for details:
