No of. assessment/distribution/reposting/Activity allocation in a month..?

Hi,
Pls. let me know how many times we can do cost centre settlement  in a month..
1. In case of assess
2. In case of Distribution
3. Incase of reposting
4. Incase of Activity allocation.
Generally I guess we can do it only once.
Thanks & Regds,
Kasi.

Hi Kasi Kancharla
There is no limit to do all these activities.
We can do as per our requirements.
Pl letme know any further information.

  • Modify posting period in KB65 - Internal Activity Allocation reposting

    Hi Gurus,
    I have lots of documents originally created in CATS.
    The user who did the CAT7 transfer made a mistake and put in posting date (01.03.2010) on the selection screen of CAT7. All items have been posted on 01.03.2010 instead of the original date of the records in CATS.
    When I try to repost these items in KB65 and modify the posting date to February, 2010 the system issues an error message (BK214) that the new posting period is earlier than original and it is not possible to modify.
    Message BK214 can't be switched off either.
    Is there any chance to bypass this? Or any other idea how to modify the posting date of these items from March to February?
    Thanks,
    Jeno

    Try KB21n......we used to change the activity allocation through this transaction.....should work in your case

  • Activity Allocation Reposting BAPI

    Hi,
    I would like to run Activity Allocation Reposting using a BAPI. I could not find one in transation BAPI. Does any of you know of such a BAPI?
    Thnx,
    Avihay

    Hi Avihay,
    I believe you can use BAPI_ACC_ACTIVITY_ALLOC_POST (sorry, that's for plain posting, for reposting I'm afraid there is no BAPI, but you can call a transaction).

  • Allocation vs assessment/distribution

    Hi,
    1 May I know what is the difference between allocation VS assessment/distribution?
    I may think that allocation is ONLY from cost center to another cost center?
    assessment/distribution is ONLY to another cost element?
    2 what tcode to use for allocation and assessment/distribution?
    Please advise.
    thanks
    rgds

    Hi,
    To me it is not general, I have to understand that before I can start doing.
    I really hope I can get advice of the difference between
    allocation VS assessment / distribution.
    I would like to know if there is any difference of allocation against assessment or allocation against distribution.
    hope can get advice.

  • Assessment,Distribution-Control Message

    Dear  Gurus,
    This is Ram chartered Accountant. I am newly joined as Sap Consultant.
    I knew normal Costing Overhead allocation, assesment, distribution but i am unable to understand that one from sap point of view.
    Can any body explain or provide material regarding assessment,distribution,allocation  from the point of configuration with  practical examples
    Thanks in advance
    Ram

    Dear Vamsi,
    Thanks for your information.   But still i have some doubts regarding when we should we define statistical key figure and when we should define activities?
    What is the difference between these two items?
    Is there any situation we should use both statistical key figure and activity allocation?
    What all screens required to configure before running assessment and distribution cycles. 
    I  did one assesment cycle but its giving error.  I will explain what assessment cycle i did
    cost centre Assemble amount i want share between Machine1 and machine 2.  For that i created Stastical key using no of employees
    I created the cycle using statistical key i.,e no of employees
    when i run the cycle it is showing the error
    "Sender base in period 001 is 0; therefore, no allocation is possible
    Sender base in period 002 is 0; therefore, no allocation is possible" 
    LIke this 12 messages are coming

  • Costing run and activity allocation

  • Direct activity allocation

    hi,
    in KB21N, we can define allocation for cost center, prof segment, sales order or wbs.
    i have few points need clarification.
    1) in KO01, we also can define settlement rule for cost center. Why need to allocate using KB21N?
    2) what is the difference between KB21N against allocation(assessment/distribution)?
    thanks
    rgds

    Settlement Rule and assessment/distribution are done as part of periodic activity for moving cost from cost center/order to another cost object.
    Whereas KB21N direct activity allocation is used for posting credit to the cost center based on the quantity information entered. Typically the timesheet of the labor time spent in the cost center for each activity is entered and the cost is transfered based on the same.

  • Internal order, reposting and allocation

    Hi
    pls tell me the difference between real oreders and staatical orders in internal oreders
        and
    difference between allocation and repostings
    Regards
    venkat

    Hi,
    Statistical objects are used when you want to post your document on two or more objects. In this case, only one posting is real and the others are statistical that you can see in reporting. If you define your object (internal order) as statistical, then by default, every posting on it would be statistical and you will have to assign also a real CO object, cost centre for example.
    Reposting is internal CO document which transfers costs from one object to another. Allocation is more complicated process of distributing costs via relevant tools such as assessment, distribution, settlement, etc. Anyway, it's not SAP term, but rather an accounting one.

  • Activity allocation

    Dear Gurus
    I have a situation: Employee's like GM works on different locations e.g., Plant A & Plant B.  Both Plant A & B have different Cost Centers.  I want to distribute GM's Cost on both Centers (Activity Allocation).
    Is is possible? if yes then how?
    Kindly guide in detail.
    regards,

    The IT0027 (Cost Distribution) screen captures the WBS & cost distribution details which the salary of the student will be charged to. Hence, if the same student is being hired in more than one dept, he/she will have to be appointed under different personnel numbers because each dept has its own WBS vote. Enter the following data:
         (i) Co. u2013 u201C01u201D for NUS (fixed value)
         (ii) WBS element. u2013 EOM WBS vote number (E.g. C-XXX-000-002-001). You can search for WBS by description, e.g. LAW. This will return you with all WBS having the word u201CLAWu201D in it.
         (iii) Pct. u2013 Percentage of funding from the WBS vote. Normally u201C100u201D

  • What is meant by assessment & distribution

    Hi all SAP Experts,
    can you explain this threads.
    Thanks,
    Tulsi.

    Hi,
    ASSESSMENT
    A method of internal cost allocation by which the costs of a sender cost center are allocated to receiver CO objects (such as orders and other cost centers) using an assessment cost element and on the basis of the keys defined by the user.
    The SAP system supports the following:
    Hierarchical method (where the user determines the assessment sequence)
    Iterative method (where the system determines the sequence of assessment using iteration).
    DISTRIBUTION
    A business transaction that allocates primary costs.
    The original cost element is retained in the receiver cost center.
    Information about the sender and the receiver is documented in the Controlling document
    Mainly assessment is used for allocation of costs within the controlling and Distribution is used allocation of costs both within and outside the controlling i.e. in FI also.

  • Assessment & Distribution

    Hi,
             What is the meaning and difference between Assessment & Distribution.
    Its Urgent.
    Thanks in Advance
    Yours
    S.VINAYA KUMAR

    hi vinay,
    3 Differences between Assessment & Distribution:-
    a. Performance of System - Assessment takes lesser time.
    b. Visibility of Sender - In assessment, visibility is lost.
    c. Primary Cost Elements - Distribution is used only for Primary Cost Elements, whereas Assessment is used for Primary & Secondary Cost elements.
    Activity Types & Statistical Key Figures can be related to as base in Assessment/Distribution between senders and receivers.
    Assesment & Distribution
    Bouth of them are used to transfer the cost form one cost center/object to another.
    Assesment
    Using of this you can transfer the cost form one cost center/object to another by Secondary Cost Element.
    Steps
    1. Goto KSU1
    2. In the first step create cycle and date
    3. in the second step give text
    4. in third step give segment and way of assessment and assessment cost element under that give from which cost center and from which primary cost element you want to transfer the cost under give to which cost centers you want to transfer the cost.
    5. mention your versa
    6. in fourth step give amount are %
    7. save all
    8. now go to KSU5 and exquet it
    Distribution
    Using of this you can transfer the cost from one cost center/object to another by Primary Cost Element.
    Steps
    9. Goto KSV1
    10. In the first step create cycle and date
    11. in the second step give text
    12. in third step give segment and way of assessment under that give from which cost center and from which primary cost element you want to transfer the cost under give to which cost centers you want to transfer the cost.
    13. in fourth step give amount are %
    14. save all
    15. now go to KSV5 and exquit it
    The Basic difference between an Assessment and Distribution is:
    1.Assessment is done for Secondary Cost elements and Distribution is done for Primary Cost elements.
    2.When you do a Assessment it creates a seperate Line Item, where as Distribution does not create a seperate Line Item. For Exp: when a Cost say salaries is transferred from X to y,when doing an Assessment, it creates a seperate Line Item in the salaries a/c of Y clearly showing the amount transferred from X, but in case of distribution, it just merges the expenses.
    3.KSV5 is used for Cost Center Distribution and KSU5 for Assessment Cycle. 4KE2 is for Distribution Cycle for Profit Center and 3KE1 is for Assessment Cycle.
    Hope this will give you a clear picture.

  • Iteraton in Indirect Activity Allocation

    Hi All,
    At the outset, I WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY N PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2009.
    Issue:
    There are around 15 Service and Utility Cost centers and about 50 Administrative Cost Centers.
    The cost to be planned for these cost centers includes Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. But in SAP, Cost Element Planning for these cost centers in KP06, will allow only planning of Fixed Cost because there is no activity planning for these cost centers.
    IS THERE ANY WAY TO PLAN VARIABLE COST IN ACTIVITY INDEPENDENT PLANNING?
    For Service and Utility Cost Centers above, I created activity types and could plan both Fixed and Variable costs.  But, Clientu2019s business process demands iteration to take place among Service and Utility Cost Centers. Once the system does the iteration, then what ever the cost Per Unit comes in each of the Cost Centers is considered to be their final Per Unit Cost of services.
    I created Plan Cycle for Indirect Activity Allocation. But there is no u201CIterationu201D possible in that. The Activity Type Category in Plan is 2/3 and in Actual u201CBlanku201D (As in Planning).
    Because there is no Iteration available in Plan Indirect Activity Allocation, I created cycle for only Service Cost Centers (to get the Service Cost Per Unit) and Assessment Cycle to allocate the cost from Service Cost Centers to Production Cost Centers. When I run the Indirect Activity Allocation cycle, the system is allocating the cost from sender Service Cost Center to all Receiver Cost Centers by taking the Ratio of SKF instead of considering the Actual SKF Value.
    Example:
    Sender Service Cost Center A has Planned Activity Quantity of 1000 hr and Planned Cost of USD 100000. So, Planned Cost per Hr is USD 100. The receiver Service Cost Centers B, C, D has consumed 10, 20 and 30 hours respectively and balance of 940 hours were consumed by Production Cost Centers.
    My Plan Indirect Activity Allocation Cycle is as followsu2026
    Sender Cost Center       Receiver Cost Center     RTF
    Service Cost Center A      Service Cost Center B     10     
                   Service Cost Center C     20
                   Service Cost Center D     30
    So, I expect the system to allocate cost of USD 1000, USD 2000, and USD 3000 from Cost Center A to B, C, and D respectively.
    But I found the system taking the ration of B: C: D i.e., 10:20:30. So, the allocated amount isu2026
    To Cost Center B = (10/60)* USD 100000
    To Cost Center B = (20/60)* USD 100000
    To Cost Center B = (30/60)* USD 100000
    Though in u201CTarget=Actualu201D (which is based on u201COperating Rateu201D) method iteration is possible, this method is not suitable for clientu2019s business process, as, the actual activity hrs will be calculated by the system automatically based on the changes in output of final receiver cost centers. (Ex. When I do Plan Reconciliation).
    I seek your suggestion regarding this.

    Hi Srikanth,
    Did you get a way to plan varriable costs in activity independant planning? Even I am looking for a solution to the problem. Let me know if you found out a way to do it.
    Thanks

  • Training and event management - Internal Activity Allocation for Attendees(PV18)

    Dear all,
    I run the PV18 transaction (Internal Activity Allocation for Attendees). Lets imagine that I successfully allocated 1000 EUR in the CO module. Then I realize that it was a mistake, and I want  to correct this by sending -1000 EUR to CO.
    My question is: how can I do that? Is PV18 capable of doing this? Or this has to be corrected manually in CO module?
    Thanks

    >>I tried to create it and the system generated a message about using the allowed name space.
    if it is a warning message, I think, you can go ahead & create the HRTEM entry in TTYP table.. you can check if this will let you get past the Activity Allocation.
