MR22 - Actual Cost Coponent Split

We have implemented material ledger and actual costing and for some costs in the cost component structure we will be updating material ledger and at month end actual cost by using MR22.
For example if freight charges for a raw material is standard: $10 and Actual $11, then in MR22 we will post the difference $1 to that material. Then during actual costing we expect this to show up in the actual cost of the raw material and flow down to the FG with price determination 3. Is this how the system works? Or is there a better way to do this? Does using MR22 have any disadvantages?
Would really appreciate any help
Thanks

Hi Markhoward,
You can change it by using t-code CKMLCCC - Manual Change of Cost Component Split.
Plz check the "Note 881740 - Notes on the use of transaction CKMCCC"

Report painter/writer for actual cost component split

Hello Gurus,
Any of you guys ever explored possibility of creating a report using report painter or writer that can give both Standard and Actual cost component splits in one report? Is it even possible without custom ABAP involvement?
Thanks
RG

Hi Raghu,
After your reply, I am getting a doubt..
Have you Activated Material Ledger? When you say Actual Cost Component Split, are you talking about it what you get in Actual Costing/Material Ledger?
If yes, then you can map your cost compnents for Actual Costing in the path SPROControllingProfitability AnalysisMaster Data Valuation--Setup Valuation using Material Cost Estimate -- Define Access to Actual Costing / Material Ledger
Further, there are no standard reports available in COPA. Try to build a report comprising two columns, 1st column with the value fields which are mapped for Standard Cost Components and 2nd column with the Value Fields which you have assined for Actual Costing under the above path.
You will be able to get the comparison...
Pls don't hesitate to call me for further assistance....

Actual Cost component split - Per PO

Dear ML Experts,
We have activated Material Ledger and Actual costing/ Actual cost component split in our implementation. The standard cost is based on delivery costs and there is no manufacturing involved. In order to test ML, we created some POs and did a GR and IR for those POs. When I look at the Material Price analysis on the Price Determination Structure View, I can see the Price differences per transaction (Goods receipt, Invoice receipt).
But when I go to the Cost component View (Actual), I cannot drill down into the individual transactions. I am able to see the actual cost component split only at the summarized level across multiple transactions. I can see the category Purchase Order under Receipts, but I am unable to drill down to see the actual cost component split for the individual transactions (goods receipts, invoice receipts). Did I miss anything on the configuration? The client wants to see the price differences per cost component per transaction and actual cost component split per transaction.
Is it possible to view this information using standard configuration? Would I have to change the controlling level in order to achieve this?
Can you please provide your advice?
Thanks,
Balram

Hi Balram.
If you have access to an IDES system, you can see a Cost Component split like this:
As fas as I know, this is only for educational porpouses. In the standard System, its not recomended have the detail of the split per movement, due to the huge amount of data genereted. There is a Flag that control this, in a Txxx table (i dont have access to the system right now).
If you really want this functionality, write SAP in the marketplace, and I guess their response is exactly what im saying.

Material Ledger Active - K088 Settlement doesnt use Actual Cost Comp Split

Production Order quantities are all scrap (in confirmation) thus order balance contains Consumed Materials and Activity Allocation
When KO88 Settlement is run, the system uses Standard Cost Component Split to allocate the residual to Cost Components instead of the Actual Cost Component Split
When we run the flow trace, the message says:
"Splitting according to output material S-Price CCS"
Expectation was that costs would flow according to Actual Cost Component split.
There is note 756167 - This note activates the update of the actual cost component split information in the material ledger document when you perform the order settlements.
However current release is 604, so its expected that this is already applied.
Any help or insight on how to settle using Actual Cost Component split is appreciated.

The second option you mentioned of using separate value field for transferring the standard cost component split from the actual cost component split is the way SAP designed this integration between CO-PA and the Material Ledger. But 40 value field for cost component split is excessive. CO-PA allows up to 120 value fields maximum, so I agree it does not seem prudent to use 80 of them for this purpose.
I suggest you reexamine the level of detail you think may be needed in CO-PA and try to use CO-PC reports at the cost element level to report on more detail. Keep the CO-PA view more aggregated and you can stick with the standard solution for comparing standard to actual costs in CO-PA.

Need to de-activate Actual cost component split

Hi All,
I need to de-activate Actual cost component split in the test client.
It has been activated by my testing associate by mistake.
Please let me know the do and donts if anyone has done this de-activation before.
I could not find any relevent OSS messages or consulting notes on this topic
We are using ML Actual Costing and Multi Currency - without actual cost component split.
Thanks in advance,

Actual Cost Component Split for cross company code transfers.

Hi,
My issue is as follows.
Production process spans across 2 company codes.
Goods are produced in production company code, transferred (via stock transport order) to marketing company code and sold to customers from marketing company code.
Stock transport order follows sales scenario i.e.. marketing company code creates purchase order for goods from production company code and production company code bills marketing for the goods.
Actual costing / Material ledger is implemented in both company codes.
We would like to roll-up (transfer) actual cost component split from production company code to marketing company (in a similar way as in product cost planning in cross-company scenario).
However, due to the fact that the transfer between the companies is in fact a "sales" the goods in marketing company code are seen as externally purchased and the only cost component we can create is based on PO conditions. But we want to get the info about production cost component split.
Once again this is for ACTUAL cost component split.
I would be grateful for any ideas.
Thanks,
Szymon

Hi Udo / Szymon.
I have a question about this issue.
In the sap help about multiple valuations / group costing:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/7e/cb848443a311d189ee0000e81ddfac/content.htm
Its not clear if this can roll up the Actual CCS? or what it do? My question is because i read the documentation of bussiness function: LOG_MM_SIT,and also the book *Actual Costing with The SAP Material Ledger*
states that we can handle the rollup of actual cost component split inter-company only with this BF active.
Could you clarify about this?
thanks!!
Arturo.
Group Valuation
Goods movements between affiliated companies not involving intercompany profits are processed using the group view. This view determines the actual cost of goods manufactured for the group, and does not include any intercompany profits. You can, however, display internal profits as delta profits in the legal and/or profit center views.
When you define cost components, you can specify that internal profits between company codes and/or profit centers are shown in detail in the cost component split. You activate these delta profits for the group valuation in the attributes of the cost components.
For each cost component structure, there can only be one cost component under which the delta profit is shown. This means that neither the legal view nor the profit center view can have more than one cost component for the delta profit.
To cost multiple values, you define a costing type for each valuation approach in Customizing for Product Cost Planning. You use the costing type to specify which valuation approach you require. You define each costing type in a new costing variant and carry out a cost estimate with this costing variant.
Group Costing and Multiple Valuation Approaches
In-Depth Detail of the Value-Added Chain: Partner Cost Component Split
You can display in detail the costs of materials and services of every company department in the value-added chain for every stage of the production process. The partner can be traced for every material used. To do this, you define a partner version, which enables the value-added portions of each manufacturing level to be displayed in detail. For further information about this, see Partners and Direct Partners.
The group cost component split can be displayed according to your partner definition. You can display the cost structures of the partners hierarchically according to your requirements, such as the company code segments on the highest level and the plant or profit center segments underneath.
To display partner cost component splits, define a partner version in Customizing and enter it in the costing type.

Raw Material Costing with Actual Cost Component Split

Hi All
I have requirement to split inventory RM Value with material component and Freight cost, all config done and looks well if I check at CKM3N cost component view, material cost $100 and Freight $20, I GR the inventory with freight cost, since I'm using actual costing when journal freight cost go to Price Difference account. But after actual costing closing why the system can't split the variance update to freight cost component? is this the standard SAP behaviour?
Please help for the solution
Regards
Luiz

I see that you want to split your material cost and freight cost. you need to check the following:
Is your current standard cost estimate support this structure i.e do you have seperate cost components for RM and Freight.
If not first you need to change cost component structure and as mentioned by owen you to map the purchase condition type to the origin group and cost component structure.
Then system will do the same for the actual costing

COPA Costing key for actual cost component split

Hi,
I would like to allow the users to specify different period/year in the following screen every month when they do the COPA revaluation. However i noticed this screen is part of customization and cannot be changed by the users without a transport. As such how can we allow the users to change the period/year by themselves every month?

Hi Sanjay Ram,
Whatever the marked one i.e. period/year is used especially when you want to consider the PUP or actual cost the material for that specific period only. As you know it can not be changed in every period.
So, for that purpose only we have the above one i.e. period a/c to line item, by this system is going to pick the PUP or actual cost of the specific period for which the line item has taken place (the line item that may be billing or settlement)

Actual Cost Component Split Datasource

Hello all,
Did anyone work with 0CO_PC_ACT_10.
I am using 0CO_PC_ACT_10 datasource to feed Infocube 0COPC_C07, we have loaded data period wise and based on actual costing run and we are validating data with ECC using CKM3.
My aim is to get for category ending inventory (EB). Single level price differences and quantity is matching with CKM3 values but multi level price differences are not matching.
I have tried searching in SDN and related sap notes but couldnu2019t find anything appropriate.
Kindly assist and please let me know if you need anything more.
Thanks,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh ,
The datasource 0CO_PC_ACT_10 uses the extractor - KKBW_CCS_BW_GET_DATA to extract its data .
And in the extractor - KKBW_CCS_BW_GET_DATA,
i could locate these tables - ckmlhd and ckmlmv011 .
So you can check these tables for your information .
You can also have a look at this :

Fixed and Variable Breakup of Actual Cost

We have implemented Material ledger and also activated actual cost component split. We are getting the actual product cost at month end. In the costing cockpit we get the Peiodic unit price(Actual cost) as well as std price of the material. But In costing cockpit we are not able to get the breakup of Fixed and variable. Whereas we are getting Fixed and varible breakup when we check cost component report in ckm3. But there, we can see individual material wise fixed and varibale breakup.
Can anybody help me so that I can see the Actual Fixed and variable cost for all the products at a time?
With regards
Mukesh Poddar

Fixed price, is the fixed costs - I usually see it in relation to Overhead..
Fixed costs remain, whether you manufacutre or not.
Say you are deciding whether to out-source an assembly, If you outsource, VARIABLE cost will be saved, Material, labor for that assembly, Overhead representing fringes for that labor, the electricity to run that specific machine. However, you will still have fixed costs of: Management Salary (although some of that can be variable); insurance on the building; heating and cooling for the building; realestate taxes.
If the cost to make "in house" is 150 each and the vendor is going to charge you 100, thi is only a true saving if your fixed costs are less than 50.
SAP allows you to separate fixed and variable costs so that you do make/buy analysis, budgeting, etc
Hope this helps

Activating Cost Component Split

Hi People,
I have to do some tests and for while i need to activate the "cost component split" in the path:
\IMG\ Controlling\ Product Cost Controlling \ Actual Costing/Material Ledger \ Actual Costing \ Activate Actual Cost Component Split (by valuation area)
I would like to know if there is some impacts for that and
if we have some problems to revert, becuase at this moment it is only a test.
Thanks,
Rosana.

Hello Paul,
Thanks for your answer.
We already use "material ledgder" but we don´t have activate component split. But look, what I am talkin is only one transaction (that I said before), becuase I have to do some test inside the aplication BW and it is a prerequisite.
I would like to know what is the impact to activate the component split on that transaction I said before.
It is only a test, but I don´t know if I put a flag in that transaction, the system will create some table internally.
And other thing I don´t know is, if It it is possible to reverte the activation (only in that transaction) that I would update and if there is some impacts.
Thanks a lot.

Material Ledger: Cost Component Split (Elements) table CKMLKEPH

Hi All,
Whats the use of this table, what information get updated in this table while creating invoice.
Message was edited by:
Alexander

Hi Alexander,
CKMLKEPH belongs to material ledgers actual cost component split database:
Differences from Actual Costs to Standard Price
Entries per material, update, cost element structure, kind of difference and level
Created per any update where occur differences
so if ML is active with actual CCS and your invoice has a price diference than CKMLKEPH will store the split of the price difference posting.
it is related to CKMLKEV.
this note gives some further links

Product Costing: Actual Cost by Component

Hi SAP Gurus,
Products are manufactured in plant X, and have all the standard cost components (MP, DL, FOH, etc.) that one would expect of internally-manufactured skus. Traditionally, these products were shipped from Plant X to Plant Y and then to Plant Z. Once sold out of Plant Z, the actual Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) in the system likewise includes costs for MP, DL, FOH, etc.
However, last year we started also selling product directly from Plant Y. On Looking in ZCO_ACTUAL_COST(Actual Cost by Component), we see that, when sold, a given SKU is treated as a purchased finished good. That is, all of the standard costs & variances associated with the sku are aggregated into Purchased Finished Goods, a materials account. Because SAPu2019s actual cost has zero for all other line items (i.e. DL + FOH), the system generates favorable variances that eliminate these standard costs.
Please note that the issue is not standards (which appear to be fine) but actual cost allocation upon sale of the product.
Summary : The issue is that product sold out of Plant Y is incorrectly treated as a purchased finished good, instead of as an internally manufactured item.This is an issue because our materials costs are then overstated and other costs are understated
How to show the product sold from Plant Y as internally manufactured Item. (with Cost Components M+P, DL.FOH etc) like how it was showing for product sold from Plant Z?
Regards
Jaswanth

Hi Ajay,
In the material master for the material, I verified that the Price control is set as S( Std price) for both the Plant Y and Plant Z.
And the issue here is with the Actual Cost component and not the Std cost component. Can you please clarify where in MRP view for Plant Ywe need to set the indicator as transferred from Plant X.
Also I verified that the valuation class for Plant Y and Plant Z is different, ( For Plant Y it is set as Mfg Fin goods and for Plant Z it is set as Purchased Fin goods). Is the Actual cost component split has any relation with this Val class setup.
This is how the Actual Cost component looks
Mat No   Plant   Raw Mat Packaging Mats Pur Fin Goods Direct Labour FOH
   A          Z         XX              XX                     XX                         XX            XX
   A          Y           0                 0                     XX                          0                0
All the cost for Plant Y is rolled to Pur fin goods.
Kindly give your inputs

Actual Costing concept in Material Ledger

Hi
Masters , can any body please explain the concept of Acutal costing in material ledger i think that involves the following steps:
1 Activate actual costing.
2.Define userdefined names for receipts and consumption
3.Assign user defined names for receipts and consumption /
for the above 2 and 3 points what is the purpose we have to define and assign user defined names in coantrolling level selecting the B+ Procurement and V+ Consumption.
thanks in advance

Hi,
Actual costing is a huge concept. It is difficult to explain the concept in few words
Please go through the following link for detailed informaton:
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/COPCACT/COPCACT.pdf
Configuration Points:
Path: IMG>Controlling>Product Cost Controlling --> Actual costing/Material Ledger
1. Activate Material Ledger for valuation areas
2. Assign Currency types to Material Ledger Type
3. Assign Material Ledger Type to Valuation Area
4. Configure Dynamic Price Changes
5. Define Material Update Structure
6. Assign Material Update Structure to a Valuation Area
7. Activate Actual Cost Component Split
8. Activate Actual Costing
Coming to your Questions 2 and 3. they are required to be created if you want your own Controlling level for transactions that you would like to differentiate in the material ledger, further than the standard system offers. Normally we don't use unless there are some specific business requirements
Some key points would be:
ML records all receipts, consumptions and variances for each material.
ML gives overview for each material of the starting balance, receipts, consumption, variance and ending balance.
ML calculates the actual cost for each material u2013 finished goods, packaging.
If a material has BOM, variances of lower levels are rolled up to next higher level up to finished goods, to calculate actual cost for raw material, semi finished & Finished goods in ML as unit price.
Calculated actual cost at end of month can be used as standard price for next period in the material master.
SAP MM is on standard price based costing, ML can do monthly average costing.
Direct settlement of all kind of price differences / exchange rate difference/ to materials at the end of the period.
Once activated , it is not that easy to deactivate although possible with implications like not having historic data.
Cannot be used in isolation : All the plants within the company code shall be material ledger active.
Material Price change is not possible after first transaction in that period.
Using material ledger, inventory in US plant in Canada will be available in USD and CAD
Hope this would help you.
Best Regards
Surya

Difference between Actual Cost and Allocable costs in splitting KSS2

I have Cost splitting structure results with me(KSS2)
What is the difference between Actual Costs, Control Costs, Allocable Actual, Actual cost balance and which amount will system consider for calculating the rate with dividing the activity rates.

Hi,
In Splitting Structure KSS2 There are two Costs One is Target Cost (Planned) and Control Cost (Actual Cost)
In Variance Calculation U will See Target Cost (Planned), Actual Cost, Allocated Actual Costs.
Target Cost = Planned Cost
Control Cost = Actual Cost
Actual Cost = Actual Cost
Allocated Actual Cost = Actual Cost of the Output Qty. This is Actual Credits from Activity allocation. This is Actual Credits from delivery of Stock.
Hope you are Clear.
