Movement 543 F always take sales order as cost object

Dear sap expert,
I run MTO scenario.
In one of my step before a product become finish good, the semi finish good need to sent to subcon vendor (the material need another process outside company production line).
The good issue journal is happen when we good receipt finish good from vendor.(FI team make it that way).
When posting good issue, MM use movement type 543 F.
The GL number for issuing material is 300196.
The problem is , movement type 543 F always take sales order as cost object even though I already delete the sales order when good issue to subcon vendor using tcode MIGO (good issue to vendor).
And I already settiing PA tranf structure of the GL account to a value field and also already setting OKB9 so the GL can automatically post to profi segment (COPA).
MM team also already set default setting layout 543 F for sales order as SUPPRESS.
But, still when run MIGO, the system still take sales order as cost object not to COPA (profit segment).
But, if i use 543 E with same dafault setting layout as 543 F, it works (the GL is post to COPA not sales order).
How can this happen?
What should I do to make the GL post to COPA not sales order when using movement type 543 F?
Please kindly help.

Hi Anu
If you are in MTO scenario and your sales order is defined as a cost object, then the system behaviour is correct..
Check if the following settings apply in your case...
1. Go to sale order, procurement tab
2. Check whats the req type
3. Go to OVZH and check whats the req class assigned to this req type
4. Go to OVZG and check whats the acount assignment cateory in req class
5. The account assignment catg would be having consumption posting field as E

Sales order being cost object

Dear All,
I need to make myself understand as I read few post which quite confusing.
Why sometimes sales order can be cost object for certain processes but not for some processes? In this case, GL can be cost element and also not a cost element.
Why third party order and MTS, sales order is not cost object whereas MTO, sales order is cost object?
thanks

Hi,
Below information helps you to understand the difference between MTO and MTS further:
MTO:
You will receive an order, it can take huge time to deliver this sales order, you need to follow the legal compliance on Revenue recognition, the functionality of Result Analsysis which is possible when the sales order is a cost object provides you the flexibility to manage the revenue recognition methods (OKG3). You can track the costing by Sales Order.Finally the costs and revnues are transferred to CO-PA.
MTS:
You will manufacture a product and send back to stores. You will receive the Order later, and you will pick the goods from the stores and delivers to the customer. Revenue recognition directly when the Billing is done together with costs.directly in CO-PA. No individual lot based costing required.

Sales Order Vs Cost Object

Dear All
I got this information in SDN, please find the statement. Is it correct? Sales order is normally Cost Object. Below information he menctioned, If Sales Order is Cost Object.   Can u explain.
If sales order is cost object (or if sales order stock is non-valuated) you can't perform WIP or Variances for production order. You can just execute the settlement for the production order to sales order associated with this.
Regards

Dear Althea Madigan,
Thanqu for ur prompt replay, As per as ur discussion
       Production Order is in Process then, the production order become as a cost object
      If the Production Order is delivered, then Sales Order is a Cost Objet
      If Sales Order is delivered then it will settled as per settlement rule.
Here What is the difference between Producion Order delivered and Sales Order delivered.

How settlement rule will be created for Sales order with cost object

Dear Experts,
We are using product cost by sales order with valuated stock. In addition we are not using COPA
We also consume some materials at sales order level and at the end of month we want to do the result analysis and settlement for the same amount. In this case can any on explain how system will behave regarding settlement of sales order cost and what entries will get pass in the system.
In our case we have done below activities...
we have created sales order,
All production order activities completed till final GRN including month end activities
Material consumption against sales order
Result analysis executed
At the time of sales order settlement, system throwing error (Sender doesn't have valid receiver, please create settlement rule for sender object)
Then i checked in sales order there sales order settlement rule not defined.
I guess this settlement rule need be generated by system automatically. If not, please let me know the process of it.

HI kishore
the reason is that sale order always carry the revenue and production order and production period carry the cost .
cost you can settle to the Material and even management want to be settle the cost to material only in production order OR period
but in sales order when u sell the product it carry the revenue not the cost and management want see and analysis based on profitability segment are profit center level .
Prerequisites
If CO-PA is active, the system generates a settlement rule when you create the sales order. The settlement rule determines whether data is settled to other objects or other areas in Controlling. In accordance with this settlement rule, the relevant data is settled to CO-PA.
If CO-PA is not active, create a settlement rule. This settlement rule that you create manually normally contains a G/L account as a receiver (such as 399999). You can also settle costs and revenues or results analysis data to objects with revenue.
You can also settle the cost of sales calculated in results analysis to a fixed asset or a cost center. To do this, you must add to the allocation structure the results analysis cost elements under which the cost of sales is updated to the order.
The settlement rule includes a distribution rule for the sales order item. The distribution rule is made up of a settlement receiver, a settlement share, and a settlement type:
The settlement receiver (such as profitability segment or G/L account) specifies the object to which the actual costs and revenue of the sales order item are settled. The settlement receiver can be proposed through the settlement profile.
The settlement share defines the percentage or the equivalence numbers used to distribute the costs to the individual settlement receivers. The settlement share for sales order items is usually 100%. A settlement share of 100% is preset in the system.
The settlement type specifies full settlement of the sales order item. This ensures that all the data on the sales order is available for results analysis.
Settlement still takes place in each period. The revenues and the cost of sales are transferred to CO-PA by period, and the work in process and the reserves are transferred to FI.

Error in CO88 for SFG cost rollup to FG (MTO Sales Order is Cost Object)

Experts,
I am getting Error in CO08 as No price could be determined for material/batch 7000000001/ plant 1000Message no. CK465
Lower level materials (Semi finished goods) not costing, when I am creating production order against Sales Order for Finished Goods.
I have BOM & Routing for Both Materials as well as it is costing well at sales order level. When Material have Quantity Structure (PP Maters) why system searching for price in material master? Is it require do the any config for cost rollup.
Plz give me the your valuable solution for rectify the error.
Please do the needful.
Thanks & Regards
Bhagirath

Hi,
When the MTO is created from sales end it will create the Planned order then it will convert to Production or Process order.
Once the production do GR or confirm Produced QTY the stock will go to Sales stock not to inventory stock.From there the sales can do PGI to customer.once PGI has done the account entry for the customer account will take place automatically.
Once the production completed the Production order need to calculate for the variance & the Settlement need to be done for the production order against the Material which you produced & sale to customer.The difference & variane amount will post to Price difference & moved to Product cost of the material automatically & COPA entry will be done automatically.
The MTO Material need to run for the Cost estimate also.
The WIP can be calculated & difference can be posted against the production order & the material which you produce.
The Process is same as the Make TO Stock scenario.Only the difference is the Production will get generate automatically when the MTO order get created & the stock will post to sales stock automatically.Rest the CO part is same as MTS scenario.

Sales order prod costing error and extracting the cost $ value

We are doing sales order product costing via custom program which internally calls FM CKKA_Costing_Process, CK_F_SD_ORDER_CALC and all other std processes and calculates the cost. In the event of error, the calculated dollar value is getting cleared. Is there any way we can find and extract the cost $ value in case of costing error?

Owen,
That's fine. Not worried about the error. But business needs the cost calculated with the error. Is there anyway we can get the cost $ while error. VA02 costing returns error too, but we have the cost updated.

Sales order vs costing variant

hi
in production order ,in OKKN we take costing variant for standard cost estimate and calculate in CK11N and released then is updated in order CO01 through costing variant in OPL1 here we select 2 costing variant PLAN and ACTUAL. ok
for sales order in VA01we will calculate costing in menu -extra- costing--
1. is it standard cost estimate like CK11N,
2.while creating CO08 for sales order here we enter production order type PP01, in this order type already costing variant PLAN and ACTUAL would have assigned for oder type
so how it calculate plan and actual
or
first we have to configure all production order setting upto CO01 and after taking production order goods receipt then we we have to create sales order setting like requirement class,type,VA01 and CO08.
plz tell me sequence for sales related order
thank you
sowmya

Dear Sivani,
I think that in your MTO scenario Sales Order item is not a cost object. And hence, the production shall be done thorugh a production order and the actual costs of material and activities, overhead shall be compared with Sales order cost estimate. The production order shall be settled to FI and COPA. FI and COPA captures the variances. At the time of billing, the COPA gets the Revenue, COGS and its components. If that is the case the following building block shall be handy in configuring your requirement. Pl go through the same and revert if you need further input.

Settle Sales order to cost center?

hi all,
is it possible to setlle a sales order (delta between revenue and costs on the sales order) on a cost center?
I know I can allow in the settlement profile to settle on a cost center - but does it makes sense?
I know normally the sales order is settled to CO-PA, but actually we do not use CO-PA.
--> What could/should then happen to the revenues and cost on the sales order? Remain there?
One idea is to maintain the settlement profile "not to settle".
Any ideas or experiences how to deal with this situation/settings?
Thx in advance

Dear Friend,
I was researching on the same issue. The Sales Order can be settled to the Financial Accounts and you may check the detailed SAP document in this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/90/ba81d2446711d189420000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
Though it is quite late reply, let me know if this serve any purpose.

Sales Order/Variant Costing: Plz suggest

Hi Gurus,
My scenario is that the company is making machine tools -
A machine is assembled from about 60 sub-assemblies (60 sub-assemblies in BOM).
Which can be produced in-house or purchased. Each of these sub assemblies have
further child sub-assemblies. This BOM explosion may happen till about 4-6 levels.
In some cases, the suppose the customer already has certain machines which have
say servo motor sub assemblies from Seimens. He would prefer his new machines to
have same servo motors (so that maintenance is easy for him or say his trust lies
in servo motors of 'Seimens' make).
So, at the time of making the order for purchase of a new machine,
the customer may negotiate the scope of supply of parts/sub-assemblies as well.
As a result -
1. Some sub-assemblies (say about 25 of the 60 in the BOM) will be purchased by
the customer at his own end and provided to the machine tool company to be fitted
into his machine. (e.g. he will purchase directly from Seimens and send it to you
to be fitted into his machine.)
2. Some sub-assemblies may be produced by the the machine tool company in-house.
3. Some items may be purchased by the machine tool company from their vendors though
they can also be produced in-house. (e.g. you may decide to buy the sub-assemblies due
to shortage of time for production or there is request from the customer that please
use particular hydraulic components of 'Vickers' make).
In addtion, the customer may also ask for commercial quotation for the machine based on any
of the above permutation combinations (e.g. what will be the price of the machine if you procure all the components or what will be the price if he provides one or more materials). We would also like to view
profitability with respect to each order. How do we do that ?
We are in a position to freeze all this data at the time of punching the sales order.
We will then run MRP.
The MRP should provide the following -
1. Planned/production orders for materials to be produced in-house.
2. Planned orders/purchase requisition for materials to be purchased from Vendors.
3. Some PR (or return sales orders or some other document) to get material from the Customer
so that we are able to follow-up incase he delays sending the materials.
4. In case the sub-assembly is to be purchased the system should not give production orders for its child parts.
Kindly suggest how to map a solution of this scenario.
Shud I make Sales order BOM or variant configuration or what ?
Thanks and Regards,
-V

Hi Vishal,
I suggest that your cost of BOM is so dynamic and everything is driven by the Customer, it is better to go for Make to Order (Make to Sales Order) where you can cost it as per the customer instead of having a Std cost.
But inspite of having Sales order BOM, your requirement would drive each sub-assembly would have a make or buy decision (Procurmenet types - Both), so you might need to go ahead with Split Valuation where you can maintain one valuation with Inhouse Production and another valuation with External Procurement.
I dont think Variant would suit your requirement.

Suraj

Sales Order BOM-Cost of Sales issue

Dear Gurus
Standard Sales Order BOM supports either Pricing Inventory control, Delivery at Header level (Item category group ERLA) or All these at Component level ( Item category group LUMF).
I have a scenario where in Header is Intangible and Relevent for Pricing only. However Down the level parts are relevent for Delivery and Inventory control.
I am exploding the Sales Order BOM with Item category group ERLA. However When I do Billing only for Header I do not get Cost of Sales as there is no Cost in Header. I cannot bring Down the level components in Billing as these are not Billing relevent.
Just To Clarify it more these are Cost is not posted in COPA as Protability analysis documents are only generated with Billing.

Vendor invoice for sales order delivery cost condition type

Dear SAP guru,
We have a scenario where we have added certain delivery cost in the sales order as condition type. There will be an accrual posting out of this condition type. We have defined the vendor code in the condition record.
The question is how to generate an invoice on this vendor with reference to Sales order, as there will not be any purchase order for the delivery cost.
Thanks in advance.
Rama

did you already apply note 1585042
Symptom
You create a Sales Order with multiple third-party items. The system
automatically generates an MM Purchase Requisition with multiple line
items. Each of these line items can have a different fixed vendor
(field EBAN-FLIEF).
In the Customizing transaction VOV7, the Sales Item Category (usually
TAS for Third Party) has the field ALEKZ 'Create PO Automatically'
selected. Therefore, one or multiple follow-on Purchase Orders will
also be created from the Requisition data during the same Sales Order
creation workflow. The system creates a separate Purchase Order for
each fixed vendor (supplier) found among the Requisition items.
During this ALE PO creation, if one of the Requisition items fails to
successfully create a PO, the next relevant PO created may have an
incorrect vendor in its header. The vendor in the PO header may not
match the fixed vendor that was designated in the Requisition line item.
Solution
Implement the attached code corrections. After this correction,
regardless of whether one of the Requisition items fails to generate a
PO, any PO that is successfully created during the process will have the
correct assigned vendor.

Default alternate bill of material in sales order for costing

Dear all,
I am fico consultant
My client is having mto scenario in which sales order costing is used ,But there are frequent changes to bill of materials to manufacture a finished product i.e adding or deleting the bom components as per various
reasons best known to them.So as a result of this there are vaiances between planned and actual costs,
Now when i am running sales order costing in va02 it is taking only original bom (quantity structure and routing)and costing is done on that basis,but the fact is alternate bom was used So What is to be done to make a costing on the basis of alternate bom and what control is to be exercised for bom preparation and costing tob effective.
As i am using result analysis for inventory valuation using 01 method i.e revenue based method in that planned costs/actual costs are used for calculating cost of sales and wip ,because of above shortcomings my wip calculation would be affected.
Kindly provide valuable suggestions
Thanks and regards

Results analysis for sales orders- actual costs/ revenues - (kka3-kkak)

Hi, i have a problem when I execute the individual results analysis for sales orders (kka3) I can see actual revenues and actual costs, however when I execute the collective processing (kkak) for the results analysis I don´t see these (actual revenues and costs). Is it normal? How can I see these in the collective processing?

Could be one of these possibilities:
1) Controlling Area set is wrong
2) You're input parameters are insufficient to get that sales order. Check Order Type etc you input in the main screen
3) The master data is wrong which is not allowing the link to the Sales Order. You would have to check each field thoroughly.
You will have to probably do a lot of checks before you resolve this. This isn't normal btw....you should see all Sales Orders
Assign Points if useful....

Sales order based costing

1) How to caluculate the cost based on the sales order.cost Estimate with quantity strcture is possible or not
PLEASE LET me know the status.
with Regards
Srinivas

Hi,
In Product Cost by Sales Order, costs are normally collected on sales order items.
The quantity structure term is relevant to Production Orders which carries BOM and routing and your scenario is make-to-order.
For each sales order item, you can plan the cost of goods manufactured or the cost of goods sold. The costing results can be used as a basis for pricing in the SD component.
To be able to plan costs for sales orders, you must do the following:
Define a costing variant and a valuation variant.
Define a costing sheet for the calculation of overhead rates.
Make sure that the MRP group in the MRP 1 view of the material master record specifies a requirements class that has account assignment category "E" (make-to-order) and that allows costing.
In the requirements class, use the "Costing" indicator to specify that costing is allowed or updated and whether the planned costs are updated.
In the requirements class, you also specify whether your sales order stock should be valuated or nonvaluated with the "Valuation" indicator.
Results analysis at the end of the period is only required if you are using a nonvaluated sales order stock.
To carry out results analysis, you must do the following:
Define a results analysis key
The results analysis key controls whether an object is selected for results analysis or WIP calculation. The results analysis key is defined as a separate default value for each requirements class.
Define a results analysis version
The results analysis version determines which of the results analysis versions are relevant to settlement. This is particularly important in multiple valuation.
Choose a valuation method
The valuation method controls which formula is used to calculate the results analysis data.
To be able to settle the results analysis data to Profitability Analysis, you must define a PA transfer structure that assigns the results analysis data to value fields.
To be able to settle the capitalized costs and the revenue in excess of billings and the reserves to Financial Accounting, you must:
Set the indicator "Financial Accounting" in the results analysis version
Define posting rules
The posting rules assign the results analysis cost elements under which the results analysis data is updated on the order to G/L accounts (such as the finished products inventory or the reserves for unrealized costs (balance sheet) and the inventory change account or the expense account for reserves (P+L)).
