OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account (OECOGS) workflow

Hi all
I am new to apps and workflow, Can any one tell
1) when OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account (OECOGS) workflow will run after the "workflow backgroud process" request (or) at the time "workflow backgroud process" request? ( when we transfer the data from OM to AR we will run this "workflow backgroud" concurrent Request. But i dont know when this (OECOGS) will run)
2) Can any one help to find out which exact package trasfering the data from OM to RA_interface_lines_all

For 1):
When a workflow is launched (create and start) from anywhere in the application a form or batch program, the workflow will continue to process all activities until it finds an error or it is explicitly defined to deferred the current activity. In that case the activity will be put in a workflow queue, so that later on the worfklow background process resumes such activity till the workflow is completed or again an error is hit or the activity is explicitly defined to be deferred.
So basically when a worfklow is launched, it will process as much as it can till it is completed. The background process will progress a workflow when it did not complete in the original kick off; otherwise it is not needed to run the background process to complete a WF.
Yes, the status monitor is a good tool to tell what stage a workflow process is at.
For second question you might need to open a forum thread on the involved functional groups.

Cost of Goods Sold by Cost Elements Accounting

EBS Version: 12.1.3
Is it possible to define the COGS (OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold) to capture Cost of Goods Sold by Cost Elements ?
The way the cost is built through the WIP process is through Cost Elements:
* direct material,
* direct labor,
* manufacturing overhead
* material overhead
* etc...
All these elements are captured separately in WIP and in separate accounts.
Is it possible to keep in separate COGS accounts (COGS -Direct Material, COGS Direct Labor, etc.) and not just be lumped into one Total COGS account at the time of sales order issue.
Is It possible with SLA Customization (derivation rules, etc.)? or modifying workflow?? I need detailed solution please!!!
I need the information in SLA, i don't care if not possible in material distributions.
Thanks...

Query about Inventory Cost of Goods Sold Account Generator WF Customization

Hi
We are trying to Customize the 'Inventory Cost of Goods Sold Account Generator' workflow for our client in Oracle Applications 11.5.10 instance.
We have successfully uploaded the modified workflow and changed the GL Account Generator Process to point to the Custom Workflow.
Database is bounced after this change, but the changes are not taking effect.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
You shouldn't need to bounce the database for any changes to take affect (although if you were experiencing the "existing state of the packages has been discarded" error then it would clear that).
Switch on debugging so that the workflow is persisted rather than being run in forced synchronous mode, and then see what route the process is taking. If you open the workflow from the database via workflow builder, are you seeing the correct version?

OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account problem?

Hi,
I have a requirement to set override segment4 of COGS which logic come from Customer Sales Channel lookup values DFF (in this case = 611) if sales channel = "MASS".
What i did is after Get CCID from the Order Type Id, i created a new function that set the hidden attribute FND_FLEX_SEGMENT4 with the lookup values mention above to override the segment4. Then after that call Validate Code Combination.
But after debugging the code using cogs_11i.sql from Metalink, segment4 was not get override as shown below :
New Segment 4 : 611 => come from debug output message
Return CCID : 151814
Concat Segments : 3101.3203.02I.212.74010001.000.0000
May i know how to overcome this problem? Appreciate your help.
Thanks & Regards,
Fendy

Hi,
Standard workflow "OM : Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account" has following steps:
1/ Start generating Code Combination
2/ Get CCID for a line
3/ Copy Values from Code Combination
4/ Validate Code Combination
5/ End generating Code Combination
If I want to modify the segment4, the custom function to set the attribute FND_FLEX_SEGMENT4 need to be inserted just after the step "Copy Values from Code Combination" (NOT just after "Get CCID for a line").
Is it what you have done?

Receiving Error Message : Cost Of Goods Sold Account Generation Failed

Hi All,
We need some assistance with this issue...for a given item when the Customer RMA order Line is being received into a given organization/sub inventory/locator we are getting this error message in the Receiving Transactions Interface ( RTI ) as mentioned below.
Cost Of Goods Sold Account Generation Failed with error :RVTII-030: Subroutine rvtiicreate() returned error
Cause: Subroutine rvtiicreate() returned an internal error.
We checked for this item in the organization the Cost of Goods Sold Account has been defined in the Costing Tab in the Item-Org Assignment and this GL account is also enabled on the GL side and is Active.
The scenario is like this :
1. Firstly this item is shipped out on an Outbound order line to the customer location and we checked for the valid Sales Order Issue transaction against this item for this order. We checked for its Inventory Distributions as well.. these look to be valid.
It shows : Inventory valuation account is decremented while the Deferred Cogs of Goods Sold account is incremented.
2. Then this item is being entered on Return order line and after booking the order line . It goes to Awaiting Return status. Next the user tries to attempt the Receipt for the Customer RMA order line for this item we are getting the error mentioned below in the RTI tables :
Cost Of Goods Sold Account Generation Failed with error :RVTII-030: Subroutine rvtiicreate() returned error
Cause: Subroutine rvtiicreate() returned an internal error.
Coudl someone please assist us with this issue as this is happening in Production instance ..that would be very helpfull of you..
This is an urgent issue

Cost of Goods Sold account determination by customer type (inter-company)

We have a business need to separate the the cost of goods sold be customer type. Specifically separating the inter-company cost of goods sold from the 3rd party cost of goods sold.
The standard COGS account determination in GBB/VAX only allows for differentiating between material valuation class.
Has anyone attempted this before and what method worked?

For those who may need an answer to this, our solution was the following:
1)       Created new types for SO, SO Item, Sched. Line, Delivery, Delivery Item, Billing type
2)       Created new Pricing procedure
3)       Created new movement type Y61/Y62 modeled after 601/602
4)       Mapped Y61/Y62 to account modifier ZAX.
5)       Mapped GBB/ZAX to the new account.
Benefits, they now have better view of the orders going inter-company. It is flexible enough to adjusting prices for intercompany separate from standard orders, even though for now it is a straight copy of cost. They are able to remove the sales/use tax, from the calculations. They are able to plan with these orders separated out. Plus, this will standardize their process for inter-company.
Hope this helps someone.
Cheers!

Account Based COPA Cost of goods sold and Revenue Split

Dear Experts,
We are using account based copa in a automobile company.
As per the requirement when a car is sold, depending on the customer request the car goes for a conversion. like adding Radio, Seat cover, etc
As per our setup we have different profit centers for vehicle and Parts(radio, seat cover etc) and in this case radio, seat cover, etc are the classes of the material vehicle(not separate material).
After the vehicle conversion there is a sales order raised which goes to profit center derived from vehicle material master.
As per the reporting requirement I need to spit the Cost of good sold and revenue by vehicle profit center and parts profit center for COPA reporting purpose
Is there any way to do this in standard SAP? Or I need an exit?
Appreciate your response and please let me know in case of any clarification.
Many thanks
Roy

Substituting Cost of Goods Sold Account Profit Center

Hi
I am using Sales Order substitution to change the Profit Center according to Sales Org + Product Hierarchy + Customer Group + Acct Asst Grp. This perfectly replace the Profit Center in Sales Order. The Profit Center from Sales Order is perfectly flowing to Outbound Delivery.
While doing PGI, in accounting document, Cost of Goods Sold line item is not getting the profit center from outbound delivery. It post COGS line item with Material Master profit center. We want profit center of Cost of Goods Sold line item is same as Sales order / Outbound Delivery.
I checked SCN, everyone provided the solution of using FI Substitution to change the Profit Center of COGS line item.
Is it any other way it can be achieved? if FI Substitution is only the way, can anyone provide the sample code, so that it can be developed fast.
Thanks

Posting of Commission Exp to calculate the Cost of Goods Sold

Hi Team,
I do work in an automobile manufacturing organization and is new to SAP FI module. I have a business requirement which I need to fulfill; I would appreciate if all you gurus help me with finding the solution.
Business Scenario: at present, we are posting the following entries to record the commission we paid to dealers for selling vehicles.
Commission Exp (DR)
Customer (CR)
Customer (DR)
Dealer (CR)
With these entries we are not been able to track the commission based on vehicle variants i.e. Toyota GLI, XLI etc.
New Requirement:
To calculate the Cost of Goods Sold for a variant, I need to track the commission expense based on vehicleu2019s variants. Please help me in finding the solution.
Thanks

Thanks for quick response.
Let me give little more details of type of commission entries we have
1) Normal Commission - Fixed commission variant wise and is derived from SD.
2) Additional Commission - No predefined formula, this is totally based on top management discretion. Management decides how much would be paid to a particular dealer.
3) Sliding Commission deduction - Deduction of certain amount from commission on late payments.
4) Additional Sliding Commission - Payment of additional commission based on early payment terms.
Currently, FI department is calculating all these figures on Excel sheets and then post a JV for each type of above mentioned commission.
How can I configure the system to calculate these amounts automatically without involving Excel Sheet help?
and how to post these amounts variant wise along with dealers and customers.

Cost of Goods sold in cross company sales

Hi ,
We have a situation where we need to transfer goods from one company code and site ( Company A ) to another company code and site ( Company B )at the cost price of company A. We are creating a purchase order for this goods from Company B to Comapny A and in turn a sales order is issued for this from Company A.We pick up purchase price in PO from as the Per unit cost of comapny A.
The issue arises here about in the delivery from company A where the cost of goods sold in delivery is done based on the total stock value divided by the quantity sold as this is SAP method of calculation and this does not always match with the per unit cost. Currently we are passing this difference as discounts.
This is the best we could achieve where by we have been able to satisfy the business need of having no difference on the purchanse price of company B and sales price of company A.
My question is : Whether is there any more effecient method of achieving the desired result without having the difference which we are currently passing on as discounts ???
Would really appreciate any help.
Thanks and Regards,
Kartik Shah

Hi Raj/ Mahendro,
Thank you for sending me the reply. I will briefly explain you the our process. The purchase from external vendor is done in warehouse belonging to one company code. The purchase is done at Moving average price but normally for an article there are no price variations. Goods receipt in warehouse is done after adding freight and insurance onto the cost of article.This is the value at which we want to transfer to another site in anotehr company code.
Now the replneshiment requirement from the other site which belongs to different company code raises a PO on to the warehouse. This PO picks up the article price (KOMV-KBETR) as the MAP from the warehouse (MBEW-VERPR). However the field MBEW-SALK3 for the warehouse is not exactly the quantity multiplied by MAP.It is actually the VERPR field which has the value based on the field SALK3 divided by the stock quantity and rounded off to the two decimal places. There is slight variation here itself due to the rounding of the total stock value and then again rounding at the per unit price.( Both the above fields of MBEW)
What we are doing on the sales order is to pass the MBEW-VERPR as EDI1 and the sotck value for the quantity ordered ( ZDEI a new condition) by the site as MBEW-SALK3 divided by the total stock at that point and multiply by the quantity ordered. So due to rounding differences there is difference in the value of EDI1 and ZEDI . Again during the billing from warehouse this condition ZEDI picks up the stock value based on the quantity delivered.
Since there are minor differences due to the rounding of values between per unit price and the actual stock value this are being passed off as discount and the payables by the ordering site and receivables from the warehouse are the same. Cost of goods sold from warehouse is the actual stock value being sold which is the revenue for the warehouse.
Even if we use the standard SAP stock transport order with billing how could we ensure that we do not have even this minor differences.
Doing away with another document is not the requirement since we already have automated the process of sales order creation from the pruchase orders.
Do you think we can achieve our requirement using SAP standard process? Except for this rounding differences we are fine with the current process as well.
Do Look forward to your answer.
Warm Regards,
Kartik Shah

Cost of Goods Sold - Cost Element asking Cost Object

Dear All,
We have defined a G/L account :500000 (Cost of Goods Sold - Field Status Group:G030).
Normally we should not create it as a cost element,but when CRM consultant does a transaction ,system asks that GL account :500000 not created as a cost element,Hence that time I have created as a cost element.
Now every time ,system is asking for cost object for this cost element.
As you all know that ,we can maintain in OKB9,but in our scenario,we have more than 3500 Cost Centers,which is not possible.
Can anybody share as how to resolve this issue?
Regards
Subbu

Thanks Mr Ajay for understanding my question.
As I told mentioned in my initial question that I have created the GL:500000 (COGS) when CRM/SD issues the stock for delivery.
What my FI done is that the same GL (500000) is assigned both in GBB-VAX and GBB-VAY as per the client requirement.
Now suggest me as how to come out from this situation?
If I need to do Validation ,request you to give your guidance as how to do it as I never done.
Thnaks in advance.
