Flow material product cost to sales order cost and no explosion of structur

Hello,
We have a business requirement - Business is currently performing product costing at material on monthly basis using quantity structure (with help of avaiable bom and routings). Material costing nicely gives the cost with clear split of material cost, labour cost, external cost etc. Then at sales order level we want to do the preliminary sales order costing. The reason for sales order planned costing is, we are performing result analysis revenue based by comparing planned cost. Business is saying, we already calculated the material cost, labour cost at the product level and same should be as it is transferred to the sales order planned cost and we just want to add the overheads.
The cost already calculated should directly pass to sales order and the order should not explode the BOMs again or try to find activity prices from routings. Then with the already available values of material, labour costs, system should only add the overheads via costing sheet.
The cost compenent structure exploded in material should be passed to sales order and not just the total cost.
There are several reasons I believe sap should not allow this behaviour. I seek your inputs to validate the same.

THIS SHOULD BE POSSIBLE WITH "TRANSFER STRATEGIES" - TCODE OKKM.
GO BY THE BELOW GIVEN PATH AND TRY.
READ IMG DOCUMENTATION FIRST, THEN TRY.

Material product cost and transport cost

Hi, all
my scenario,
Company Z Order 100 carton from Supplier A at $15/carton.
Company Z will born the transport cost ie per trip $500.
assumption one trip = 100 carton ($5 / carton / transport)
how can i treat the transport cost in SAP as actual cost per carton = $20 / carton.
please advice
many thanks

Hi
Product Costing is arriving at the Cost of Producing a particular material. For example
Raw Material 1 +
Raw Material 2 +
Overheads
Cost of Labour deployed +
Cost of Other over head like Electricity exp.
Overhead Cost
Overhead Cost like/expenses which are incurred in process of maufacturing or rendering services are Overheads. We can term labour & electricity in process of manufacturing as overheads. Overheads are normally flow into CO thru COst Objects (Cost Center, Internal Orders, Profitability segments)

Question in Product Cost Collectors

Hi All,
I have one question in Product Cost Collectors.
We are using REM and we have multiple products with same BOM routing. Is it possible to assign several materials to to one Product Cost Collector inorder to reduce number of cost collectors.
For example, for routing we can create a Group and assign serveral materials to a group.
Thanks and Regards
Purushothaman

Hi Purushottam,
In REM, it is required to create it for every material.
Even if material has more than one production version, need to create separate Product Cost Collector.
Some more explanation on Product Cost Collector -
u2022 Object in cost accounting used in Repetitive Manufacturing.
u2022 A separate product cost collector can be created for each production version or material. The collected costs are settled to inventory at the end of the period.
u2022 The functions performed for product cost collector during the period end closing process include :
u2022     Work in process (WIP) caculation
u2022     Variance calculation
u2022     Settlement
u2022 In Repetitive Manufacturing, all costs attributed to the production of a material are collected on a product cost collector and settled periodically (period-based Controlling).
u2022 The product cost collector is settled periodically according to the posting period (for example monthly) .
u2022 For a material , product cost collector is made for each version
u2022 The actual cost collected can be viewed through product cost collector.
Hope it is clear now.

Actual cost of product in COPA

Dear all,
I am relatively new to COPA functionality.
The requirement is that actual cost of product should be reflected in COPA and not the planned.
Kindly give me the background also, as in the integration of COPC and COPA.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Sudhakar is completely right in his comments. But, I would not just accept that actual costing is not active, so you have to find a solution without it. Your requirement is a good reason to activate actal costing, and calls for it.
The way SAP foresees to bring actual costs into CO-PA would be:
Activate material ledger / actual costing

Calculate periodical actual prodcut costs at period end
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/ec/f835d7f08311d185810000e8a4bacc/frameset.htm]
Revalue CO-PA at actual costs with KE27
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/f5/0f0739edfcb03ae10000000a11402f/frameset.htm]
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/7a/4c39be4a0111d1894c0000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]
That brings you a completely integrated and accurate solution for actual product costs in CO-PA

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

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!

problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.

Material Ledger,Revaluation Production Cost Center ,Standard Cost

Hi, I have a problem with revaluation of production cost centers.
Firstly, production cost center expenses are settled via activity types onto the production order at the end of the period. However, CKMLCP revaluate cost centers after the settlement because of using standard price. So cost centers at the end of the period have some amount.
As a result we can not find actual price for production orders.
If I use standard cost in order to consume on cost centers, material ledger revaluates again this cost centers. I dont want this condition. Because this cost center is settled to other cost object before closing.
Thanks.

Hi
Go to the following path in SPRO:
Controlling -> Product Cost Controlling -> Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Actual Costing -> Activate Actual Costing. Double-click on "Actiavte Actual Costing" and change the indicator from "2" to "1".

Costing Report summarized production cost by Finished Goods Material

Dear Expert,
I am looking for a report that can summarized the production cost in production order by Finished Goods Material Number.
or a report that can show me the cost components incurred related to a Finished Goods Material.
Can any expert enlighten me? please help.
Thanks a lot.

Hi
I would recommend the product drilldown reports in KKO0...
For this you will have to do settings in OKN0 (Asisgn a Cost Comp Structure and specify the Product Group)
After this, execute KKRV to collect the summarized data and then you can use KKO0 reports
It gives cost of production as per the Cost Comp Str and also the product no, product group, Prod Order etc

How the raw material cost is picked in product cost in case of split materi

how the raw material cost is picked in product cost in case of split material in BOM

Hi
In case of Std cost (CK11N), the planned price or MAP that you enter in the Parent accounting View will be considered for the cost calcualtoin purpose
Parent view means the view which is above the 2 or more valuation types which consists of avg value of all other val types

Complex Product Costing Scenario- Separate overhead rates to same material

Hello- I have a strangely complex scenario at my current client.
They wish to apply different overhead rates to the same raw material (one material number in SAP) which is a part of two different BOMs to the same Semi-Finished product (one material number in SAP). This semi-finished product needs to be costed 2 different ways with 2 different BOMs, routings and overhead rates and then i need to use mixed costing to come up with a blended rolled-up cost to update in the material master of the semi-finished product. I am able to get past all challenges but the only open item is to be able to apply different overhead rates to the same material.
Limitations:
1- We have to use Standard price, not moving average.
2- Split valuation idea thrown out the window.
3- Using 2 different material numbers for the raw materials thrown out of the window.
4- Business area idea thrown out of the window.
basically, coming back to the original issue at hand, the challenge is to be able to apply different overhead rates to one material number in SAP.

Hi
There are available,, But you have thrown them out of the window already
I believe you need to rampup your overhead absorption mechanism... if ovh is dependant on the component, then it should remain fixed/.. however, if it is getting changed bsaed on the parent material, then driver is not the component, but the Parent material
hence, your overhead should be based on Parent material... Assign an overhead group to the Parent material say, 100 and 110 to the 2 Parent materials.... Now you maintain separate % of overhead per overhead group.... BASE would be the raw material consumption cost element
@ Subodh: Do you think above suggestion will work?? I think exit need not be used if I have understood his requirement clear

Table for Material-Cost center-Settlement Rule_REM product cost collecter

I want to generate a report to see for particular material which cost center and which settlement rule is available.
If we go in Product cost collecter (PCC) there we have an option to see settlement rule under header tab, I want to fetch that data for material as selection parameter, can anyone suggest how to get the data as,
Material        Cost Center        Settlement Rule
Thank you.

Product costing of spillit valuated material

Hello,
Please guide me regarding how does Product costing is carried out when input material is spllit valuated.
Thanking You ,
Santosh Rothe

Costing value zero can happen due to multiple reasons. Here are some of the things to be considered.
Did you check master data of material C to see if there are any costs for material C?
What are the valuation strategy for material valuation set up in the valuation variant? Is there any strategy that included price from purchase info record?
Is info record set up for material C in the new system that you are testing?
Did you check activity quantities in routing and activity rates set up in cost center for the period you are running standard costs?
Did you check the formula in the work center costing tab?
Thanks,
Ram
