Mass change of profit centers in Product Cost Collectors

Gurus,
My client has a requirement of mass change of Profit Centers in Product Cost Collector (Transaction Code KKF6N). Is there any way of doing this using LSMW or anything else?
I had tried with LSMW Recording, but there is a particular production version associated to profit centers in KKF6N tranasction, because of this I couldnt go to particular production version and update the profit center.
So, Is there any easy way doing this?
<REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thanks,
Kalikonda.

  • Profit center in Product cost collector

    Hi,
    We need to change the profit center in the product cost collector after the actual postings were made. SAP does not allow to change the profit center. So any other work around solution for this issue? Can somebody help me with this?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raghava

    Hi Bhuvaneswari,
    We are having a situation,
    The issue is to change the profit center for the product collector after the actual postings were made. Now the big problem is there is no PA transfer structure defined to execute the settlement for these product cost collectors and then change the profit center. Can you give some work around solution for this? And also what about the postings made previously.
    To give more insight,
    In the order type, Settlement profile is maintained
    In the Settlement profile, Allocation structure is maintained
    How do you link the settlement profile / allocation structure to the PA transfer structure?
    I can not settle the order (Product cost collector) as there is no PA transfer structure
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Profit center change in product cost collector

    Hi All,
    I would like to know what precautions we should take for mass changes of profit center corrections in the "Product Cost Collector".
    I want to make  same profit centers in material master and in product cost collector for that we need some  report on "Product Cost Collector" or table name so that we may compare the profit center in material master and Product cost collector in order to make them in sink.

    Hi All,

  • Change the profit centre in the cost centre master after a year

    Hi All,
    Could you'll please let me know whether it was possible to change the profit centre in the cost centre master and if i did what will be the implications.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Vandana

    Refer transaction code OKEG.
    You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity    
    types, and business processes with time dependencies. You can make        
    changes at any time for any given time interval. Data storage also takes  
    place with a time reference. In this way, a master data record can have   
    multiple database records storing different information.                                                                               
    The smallest interval is one day. To ensure data consistency, you cannot  
    change each field daily. The timeframes in which you can change a field   
    depend on the field functions, which are fixed by the system and cannot   
    be changed. Master data maintenance includes an automatic check for each  
    field's time-based consistency, resulting in individual time-based        
    maintenance for each field.                                                                               
    The following dependencies are supported:                                                                               
    o   Not time-based                                                                               
    o   Day-based                                                                               
    o   Period-based                                                                               
    o   (Fiscal) year-based                                                                               
    This function provides an overview of the time dependencies of           
    individual master data fields during master data maintenance, along with 
    checks and storage of consistency timeframes. You find this information  
    in the "Time dependency" column.                                                                               
    If you use fields requiring characteristics greater than one day and     
    which are changed for the system lifetime of the object, the system      
    automatically creates a new database record for this processing          
    interval, and changes the time-based validity of existing records. The   
    change is logged in the master data record with the time reference.      
    However, a great number of changes in multiple timeframes will result in 
    a correspondingly great number of data records.                                                                               
    Fields which you can change freely (indicated in the DAY column) can     
    possess different time dependencies only if you mark them additionally   
    as historically relevant. This activates the time-based updating for the 
    records.
    Object 1000 has one master data record created with a fiscal year of 12 
    periods and the cost center name AAAAAAAAAA. During master data         
    maintenance, you change the cost center name in period 5 to BBBBBBBBBB. 
    The system reacts with one of two options.                                                                               
    o   "Name" is marked as historically relevant. The existing master data 
         record for periods 1 - 12 must now become three records:            
         1000   01-04   AAAAAAAAAA                                           
         1000   05      BBBBBBBBBB                                           
         1000   06-12   AAAAAAAAAA                                                                               
    o   "Name" is not marked as historically relevant. The existing master  
         data record remains intact, with the name changed for the entire    
         existence of the record:                                            
         1000   01-12   BBBBBBBBBB

    1. Is it possible to change the settlement rule for the Product cost collector?
    2. If yes, Could you please let me know the procedure to do this?
    3. If no, what is the alternate as I want to change the CAT from MAT to ORD.
    Your help is very much appreciable and Thanks in advance for the help.

  • Error while creating Product Cost Collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    While creating Product Cost Collector I am getting the following Error:
    Enter a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit
    Message no. KD059
    Diagnosis
    The settlement profile used requires you to define a distribution rule for Order. For period 009 2008, however, you have not created a distribution rule for Order.
    Procedure
    Create a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit, because, if the distribution rule does have a validity limit, the system always issues this message in the period following the last valid period.
    You can also use a different settlement profile that does not require such a distribution rule, or change the settlement rule used.
    Can any one help where exactly i need to maintain this.
    The settlement profile settings are fine.
    I am getting this error only after i have changed the scenario to Reproting point back flushing

    Dear Suryanarayana
    Please check the corresponding settlement profile for product orders.
    In most of the cases message KD059 means that no distribution rule is assigned to your production order.
    This is not an error, but the system design. In order to avoid message KD059 you will either have to enter settlements parameters and a distribution, or change settlement profile for valid receivers in transaction OKO7 from 'settlement required' to 'Can be settled'.
    I hope this helps resolve the issue for you. I wish you the best in your endeavours.
    Kind Regards,
    Brendan

  • 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

  • Settlement Parameters on Product Cost Collectors

    The basic config on Product Cost Collectors has settlement to a material.
    1) Does someone know how to change the settlement rules to settle to a GL account or Order for new materials
    2) For old materials, does someone know how to change the settlement rules. SAP - I believe in HELP and in note 388457 says you cannot change the setlement rules.
    Thanks

    Thank you for responding.
    Unfortunately, even if you create a new profile and allocation structure, you cannot change it on the order.
    I later found in SAP HELP that the settlement profile on cost collectors cannot be change.  That was also verified by oss 388457.
    But, I was hoping I was wrong or there has been a further change

  • REM Product cost collectors and Production version

    Hi All,
    Can some one pls let me know
    What are the product cost collectors in REM and how to create the product cost collectors ?
    What is the production version and the difference between production version and controlling version?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Bujji

    Dear Bujji,
    A product cost collector is a cost object in Product Cost by Period that collects the periodic actual costs incurred in the production of a material. It can be created in txn KKF6N.
    [Product Cosr Collector|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
    [Product Cost Collectors: Collective Entry for Repetitive Manufacturing |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
    A production version determines the various production techniques that can be used to produce a material. It defines the following information:
    Alternative BOM for a BOM explosion
    Task list type, task list group, and group counter for assignment to task lists
    Lot-size restrictions and period of validity
    A material can have one or more production versions.
    It can be defined in the Material Master (txn MM02) in one of the following views:
    MRP 4
    Work Scheduling
    Costing 1
    The costing version is a different issue. It is a costing parameter and is used to save several cost estimates for the same material, with the same costing variant and the same costing date (e.g. in oder to cost the material several times with minor changes without creating new costing variants).

  • Product Cost Collectors

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what is exactly product cost collectors and what is the impact on the production orders and cost?
    If there is a BOM change, we will just create new production version and new product cost collector. We will not update the standard cost. Is it that the new production orders will pick up the new cost based on the product cost collector? even though the standard cost was not up to date? What will be the impact to the accounting?
    Kindly please advise. Thank you.

    Hi,
    Following link will be useful:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/5f/1faba54aee11d189740000e8322d00/frameset.htm
    A few points for reference:
    - Product Cost by Period, Product is the main cost object.
    - Actual costs can be collected on the PCC
    - No settlement rule for a mfg order linked to a PCC
    - In PCC, the components in the BOM picks up the price from the material master
    - If Std Cost Est is not upto date, then matls in PCC will take existing / old price
    - So the FG Preliminary cost estimate will not match with its Std Cost
    - Moreover inventory valuation may vary if std cost est is not up to date
    - The Valuatin variant specified in the Costing variant actual of the PCC is used to valuate the data confirmed for the mfg order.
    - This costing variant results in a temporary prelim cost est for the mfg order. This preliminary cost estimate cannot be saved.
    Integration with Mfg Order:-
    If you have specified in the order type of your mfg orders that the costs should be collected on a PCC rather than on the mfg order, the system creates a link to the PCC when you create a mfg order for the corresponding combination of characteristics (such as material / plant / production version). The mfg order receives the status PCC (product cost collector). This status prevents costs from being allocated to the manufacturing order.
    The above might give you some lead.

  • Abolish product cost collector for production order

    Dear Experts,
    we use for some production order types the product cost collector. Now we plan to abolish them and change the settlement for production order. Which things do we have to pay attention? Do we have to finish our running production orders first or is it possible to change customizing during running production process. Thanks for your hepl!
    Best regards
    Steffen

    Hi Ajay,
    thank you for your answer.
    We have tested two variants:
    1. new order type, so we can process two separate settlements, for orders with PCC and the new orders without PCC. After archiving of all prodorders with pcc, archiving of pcc it should be possible to switch back to old order type.
    2. change customizing without finishing existing orders, settlement for existing orders, all orders which already have been processed will be settled by pcc (status pcc usage in order header) We have not be seen any strange system behavior.
    We use the pcc collector for different order types in different plants and want to abolish plant by plant. In this time the pcc will still be customized/exists.
    Best regards
    Steffen

  • Standar cost and product cost collector not updating the new price

    Hi,
    Created Standard cost estimate for one FG product and runned the product cost collector. Based on that consumption delivery everthing is made. Later on the work center and activity type changed in routing. Now i am trying to run the standard cost with new activity price (due to work center change) for the current period, system is showing only the previous rate(previous period) and it is not updating the new price becuase of already we have created the product cost collector.
    Can any one give the suggestion for how to update the new price in standard cost as well as new price updation in product cost collector.
    govind.

    Hi
    1. If the original cost estimate was run in the current month - Then you cant re-release cost estimate unless you reverse it from CKR1
    If the cost estimate was of previous months - then you can definetely release it again
    2. In cost collector, you need to manually cost it again using the Preliminary costing feature... Your cost coll will then show 2 cost estimates i.e. One from Original date to current date-1, and 2nd from Current date to 31.12.9999

  • Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
    Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
    When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
    By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
    Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
    Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
    And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
    Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
    many thanks!
