Material cost estimate and mateiral cost estimate with quantity structure

Hi sap guys,
What is the difference between material cost estimate and material cost estimate with quantity structure

Hi
Both are in one way the same.
Material cost estimate can be calculated as
1. Material with quantity structure
2. Material without quantity structure
You can get more insight into it at the following link

Error - Material cost estimate with quantity structure

Hello Gurus!
Can anyone please help with the following problem:
Im trying to do the material cost estimate with quantity structure, but the system is throwing back the message " There is no exchange rate for exchange rate type P on 1.01.2008: CHF -> EUR".
This happens because I have a subcontratation in my routing in CHF, and in transaction OB08, and I dont had defined that rate (type P CHF EUR).
I need to know if there is any solution to the system assumes other Type of Exchange Rate (the last real exchange rate that I have introduced in my system, not the planned!)
Points will be assigned to the suitable answer.
Thanks in advance.
Mary Jane

Hi Sridhar
Thanks for your reply.
In OKEQ for the version 0, I have the rate type M.
I don't understand why the system throwing back the message " There is no exchange rate for exchange rate type P on 1.01.2008: CHF -> EUR".!
Do you know why?
Thanks and regards

Material cost estimate with quantity structure (tcode: CK11N)

Hey dear friends.
I donu2019t know in which forum I should put my question above.
In fact, Iu2019m new to SAP PM module.
Iu2019m trying to create material cost estimate with quantity structure (tcode: CK11N) for a material u201CXu201D.
This material is manufactured.
While running the transaction CK11N, I got an error message.
After analyzing this error message, Iu2019ve realised that somebody had assigned wrong activity types to cost centers which are linked to this material in tcode: CR03, tab: costing.
So Iu2019ve changed and assigned the right activity types.
Then, Iu2019ve tried to run the tcode CK11N again. But the system still brings the wrong activity types and seems to ignore the ones that Iu2019ve assignedu2026
It seems like the old activity types still linked to the cost centers somewhere else than in tcode CR03u2026
Any idea about what am I mising ?
Thank's in advance.
Bahia.

Dear Bahia,
If its rate routing means,i guess you must be working in REM scenario.
So goto CA22,delete the existing operation and then assign the same work center in a new
operation,check what activity types is it proposing in the rate routing,if its reflecting correctly means
save the datas.
Also goto KKF6N--->click the change mode icon and then calculator button to create a preliminary cost
estimate and then save the datas.
One of our forum friend has asked you to check the production order read PP master data once
again,but understand there is no production order concept in REM scenario,only planned orders.
Then come back with your queries.

Material Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure (How to download)

Is there a standard report or feature available in SAP to download the material cost estimate with quantity structure?
Currently we have to print screen and it is very tedious and can't do analysis with those screenshots.
Please advice.

Hi,
There is a standard report you can use - S_P99_41000111 - Analyze/Compare Material Cost Estimates .
With this report, you can report the standard cost estimates for a range of materials.
Good Luck!!! Assign points if this was a useful input to you.
Thanks and Regards,

Costing run and premilinary cost estimate

Dear All,
Is it possible to run cost estimate and premilinary cost estimate for a product cost collector back dated. I mean for 01.03.2007. I know it is not possible. But anyother way out.
ranga

Hi Rangarajan
I think it is possible in future date and not backwards.
Thanks

Defferece between cost centre and Master Cost Centre

Can any body explain defferece between cost centre and Master Cost Centre.
Appreciate your help.
Kavitha

Hi kavitha
I dont think there is difference between Cost centre and master Cost Centre.
It may be Possible that under Cost Centre Hirarchy One Cost Centre is at Top node and other is Child of that Cost Centre.
Thank YOu.
Thank YOU.

Digits Of Significance/Rounding Issue-Cost Estimate With Quantity Structure

I have an Excel based BOM which includes Material (Yield) Qty, plus a scrap factor. This adjusted yield is then multiplied by the Unit Price to get the Extended Amount. An example from my file is:
Material 10-0766 = yield of 1.824 sq ft less 4% scrap 0.07 sq ft = adjusted yield 1.897 sq ft * 1.836 USD/sq ft = Ext. Amt of 3.483 USD.
In SAP, I created a BOM via CS01 with this material as a line item, 1.824 as the qty, UOM is FT2 (sq ft) and I added a Assembly Scrap of 4% with the Net ID indicator checked. When I create a cost estimate via CK11N (in our SAP AFS 6.0 sandbox), the itemization for this material reads: qty of 1.897, total cost of 3.48 USD.
The math all works, but the resultant USD amount in SAP is short by .003 USD. I realize that USD currency is configured to only 2 decimal places, and that is fine. But, I thought that the calculations that costing was doing was retaining all the digits of significance past the 2 decimal places being shown, rather than rounding off to 2 decimal places. There are 24 materials in this BOM, and the total delta between my Excel sheet total (17.647 USD) and my SAP estimate (17.63 USD) is 0.017 USD. If I look at each item, the cumulative difference is due to each line rounding off to 2 decimal places.
The units of measure (via tcode CUNI) are all configured to show display 3 decimal places (field DECAN) and round to 5 decimal places (field ANDEC).
Does anyone have any information/suggestions around the precision in my SAP cost estimate? Am I stuck with these differences, or is there something I can do differently to prevent them? I know I can increase digits of significance in Activity Price Calculation, but I can't find anything similar in Product Cost Planning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
To achieve you have to run the costing run twice once normally.
Secondly you create an alternate BOM 2 by having the same alternate BOM 1 and remove the 2 materials which you dont want.
Execute the costing run, provide the details required in the Costing data screen, press enter, go to the Qty structure screen give the details of the Alternate BOM 2 in the BOM details and execute the costing run.
Save the cost estimate, which would be have been costed without the values of two materials as you wanted by using the alternate BOM 2.
Then use CK24, select the option "other prices" to release the cost estimate for the commercial price only by selecting the indicator of commercial price 3 only.

Costing sheet and standard cost estimate

Hi
I am trying to use Costing sheet for overhead calculation .
But in costing run I am not getting the overhead amount calculated .
I created the costing sheet and assigned that to valuation variant .
Where from the actual / Plan values being picked up for over head calculation .
More over I need to understand on what basis the %age for overhead can be calculted to be aborbed to material cost .
In costing run I am having ZERO values for overhead .
I have followed the following steps
Costing Sheet: Components
Define Calculation Bases
Define Percentage Overhead Rates
Define Quantity-Based Overhead Rates
Define Credits
Define Overhead Keys
Define Overhead Groups
Even then the Production overhead is not being calculated at the time of Cost Run
for standard cost estimate .
regards

Do you enter overhead group in the material master.
Key that groups together materials to which the same overhead is applied.
Procedure
In costing with and without quantity structure, and when costing production orders and run schedule headers, you can apply percentage overhead charges by means of an overhead key if you:
Assign a costing sheet to your production order or run schedule header, or to the valuation variant for the cost estimate
Enter overhead charges in this costing sheet that use the overhead key field
Assign the overhead key to an overhead group
Enter this overhead group in the material master record of the material

K/834 no standard cost estimate and ke435 costing key 000 does not exist

Hi ,
scenario as under we have following type of materials
normal Material that has cost estimate
Configuarable material
Material without cost estimate -prices are updated thru MR21 (as some legacy system calculated the price)
There are many company codes and use one or more above category of material. further we have common Material type and valuation class.
we need cost component split to get updated in COPA and for that i create 2 costing key one for normal and other for normal one and developed an enhancement (KEPC) that check whether material is configurable or not. based on that it assign 001 or 002 costing key
it went well but failed for material that has no cost estimate and got error K/834.
To tackle same we insert further logic to check for normal material whether cost estimate exist, if yes then assign costing key 001 else ignore it. configurable material logic remain as it is. it working fine for normal and Configuarable material but normal material without cost estimate resulted in error KE435.
need to know:
-at first place why system generates K/834 error for enhancement - earlier we were using assignment rule (KEPC) where we use valuation class and assigned costing key 001, it worked for normal one and ignore configurable one and normal material without cost estimate. I haven't changed costing key rule and exclusive error is not marked .
- any other way to tackle besides resetting message class from error to warning or changing Materila type or valuation class as that is not acceptable due to other complexity.

Atul

Hi,
It resolved thru enhancement

Costing BOM and Mixed Costing

A product which is manufactured in-house has more than one production version. Each production version has its own BOM and Recipe. To calculate a blended standard cost, we will use mixed costing functionality and assign ratio to each production version. However we want to copy the BOM usage 1 (production) to BOM usage 6 (costing) and make changes only for costing purpose.
Hence each production version will have a BOM for production and equivalent BOM for Costing as follows:
Production Version/Procurement alternative
BOM for Production
BOM for Costing
1
Usage 1 / Alternative 1
Usage 6 / Alternative 1
2
Usage 1 / Alternative 2
Usage 6 / Alternative 2
If a process order is created with Usage 1 /Alternative 1, how does the system know to compare actual cost with procurement alternative with Usage 6 / Alternative 1 for the purpose of variance calculation?
Thank you,
Siva

Hi
Welcome to SDN
You dont have option to specify the Valuation type in BOM i.e. in the BOM of B, you can only specify A as the Input material... You cant specify C1 or C2
Hence, as a result, costing uses only the average price of C1 and C2 which is maintained in the Mat Master as a PLanned price
MIxed Costing as well as Split Valuation for Material B makes no sense in this case....
If you still want to have Mixed Costing & Splt Valuation in this case - You need to create one more material for Mat A i.e. Separate Mat codes for C1 and C2.. however, it will have its own challenges during MRP as to which material should be ordered, etc

Cost Updating and Standardized cost difference apportion

Dear All,
1、 Cost updating：Standardized cost or average cost change is updated across all sub-inventory simultaneously, but the update should exclude the inventory that lends stocks (we do not want to update the cost of lending stock).
2、Standardized cost difference apportion：Standardized cost difference apportion is operated manually without system support (we want to do the apportion when stocks are delivered).
I am stuck up with these question ..
please let me know the solution or the workaround to achive this
Appriciate your help
Thanks

Hi Abhishek,
Further to discussion on the subject,
Find enclosed link which elaborates the accounting
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/08/513e4243b511d182b30000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
In a nut shell u can consider that cost elemnts are providing u the documentation for Financial reporting & legal entries of a company.
Cost centres are cost collectors for different expense/revenues generated within the organisation with repsct to controlling part (Internal documenation) of the compny for better controlling the business scenarios.
Further cost centres are used for product costing.

Cost Center and res cost center

Hi team,
When i am going to settle the cost of PM Order , COst center pick from Equipment sonly. Then what is the use of assignemnt of cost center in work center.
thanx in advance

Hi,
How do I call you? SAPPM is not appropriate!...
You are attaching one cost center to your work center that supplies required resources (activity types) to perform the maintenance - in IR01. That cost center is to maintain the rate of the resource (Activity types) ie. Rs.500 / Hr or day - in KP26.
Whenever you are utilizing a resource from a work center, system refers the cost center / activity type combination to determine the cost. Based on no. of hours or days utilization, the planned cost / actual cost are determined from the Wctr, Cctr, Acttypes.
These are so called Source of cost center.
After completing the order, the cost incurred are with the maint. order. Now we need to settle to a cost object, it may be a cost center / WBS / Contract / PSEG etc.. depends on your business requirement. You may use a cost center as a Cost receiver / cost object to observe your maintenance cost of an Equipment / Func loc / or its group.
As a whole, the work center / cost center is used to determine the cost (Source). Equipment cost center observe the cost of maintenance(receiver).
Hope this description gives required clarification . If not, Revert back.

Difference between master cost centre and sender cost centre

Hi All,
could you please tell the difference between master and sender cost centre.
I want this information very urgent.
Thanks rakesh

Hi!
The master CT is a default Ct in your system.
In this case the logical pair for master is the "child" cost center -> primary and secondary cost centers..
The sender CT is a different thing logically -> this will be credited while posting. The sender is the one who claims money.
To this type the logical pair is the receiver cost center. While posting the receivers cost center will be debited.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Zsolt
