OM:Cost of Goods sold work flow customization to take it from concerned office in the place of inventory org

Yes FOX can be difficult to achieve things that are simpler than simple
The way you described, it will only search fo a standard price on the same currency.
Try to set the currency as changeable characteristic and then search prices for each possible currency.
standard price value = {standard price, currency1} + {standard price, currency2} etc..
The possible currencies could also be filled in a variable which is read at runtime.
Don't know an easier way!

Cost of Goods Sold not flowing to CO-PA

Dear Experts,
I have assigned VPRS (statistical condition type) to CO-PA value field in KE4I,but when I create billing document,the COGS value is not flowing to COPA.
Can anybody help me as WHAT is missing in configuration for not flowing COGS to CO-PA?
Treat it very...... .
Regards
Su

Hi,
Can anybody explian the logic behind the documents triggered by the system in the following scenarios?
At the time of PGI:
COGS A/c Dr to FG Stock A/c (Accounting Document)
COGS A/c (CO Document and No COPA Document)
At the time of Billing
Customer A/c Dr to Sales A/c (FI Document)
Sales A/c-PSG for Sales A/cs (CO Document)
All the line items relating to Sales Revenue (CO-PA Document)
So finally in FI under P&L,COGS A/c in Debit side and Sales in Credit side appears as Customer and FG Stock comes under Balance sheet.
The above said entries are correct and Standard SAP behaves the same.

Report which can give Inventory cost & Cost of Goods sold

We need to track below information for each material
- Previous Month Inventory
-Current Month's Cost of Goods sold
Then we calculate
Financial Days on Hand = Previous Month Inventory / Current Month's Cost of Goods sold / Working Days
Any SAP Reports which can give this information

Hi,
I m not sure whether single report could suffice your requirement.
this is just a suggestion.
please run the MC.9 report and switch it into the monthwise.
you will get the inventory monthwise but this could mean you have to run it multiple times if you need for each material monthwise. but at least try this for one material and check.
for the COGS for this month you need to know how many deliveries are made and then sum up those materialwise. you can check sales reports on this and you might get the details. then you can apply your formula.
in case you dont want to do this then you need to create Z/Y report with the help of ABAPer. here i will suggest you to call the std reports and then display them into a ALV grid with your layout.

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?
HTH,

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 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...

I need help experts!!!

Cost of Goods Sold Calculations

I have a planning folder where the user first enters a company code, a currency and a profit center into the respective variables. In the subsequent template user enters material SKU along with planned Sales Quantity and planned Average Selling Price (ASP). I load standard prices for all material from R/3. I have two FOX formulae running in the background as soon as the user saves his/her entries. First one calculates product revenue, which is (ASP * Quantity). This one works perfectly fine. The second formula needs to calculate Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), which is (Standard Price * Quantity). This formula fails miserably. As far as my understanding goes, in order for a FOX formula to work all the characteristics that are not in the parameter group between the standard price record and the quantity record should match exactly. If there is an inherent mimatch between the records then you try to take care of the mismatch in the FOX formula by hard coding. The quantity records have SKU, company code, profit center, currency (!yeah, currency!), units of measure. Whereas the standard price records have SKU, distribution plant, currency. I understand that I can put # sign for company code and profit center in the FOX formula for selecting a standard price record, but unfortunately the currency of the standard price record may not be the same as that of currency of the quantity record since many materials are sourced from a distribution center outside the company code!! So the simple multiplication of Std price * quantity is not working!!!
I think of two options here.
1. As it doesn't make sense to populate currency field for a quantity record, I should move the currency variable into the data field for ASP records only. This way I can put # in currency field for quantity record selection. But the downside of this is that instead of posting quantity and ASP in one record into the cube, two seperate records get posted when user saves the data. As our users plan on 10000 different SKUs across the globe, this may not be a good idea unless the option two doesn't work.
2. There must be a way to make the FOX formula work even with the mismatch of currencies between quantity and standard price. I need your inputs in this regard.
If someone could also explain whether or not my understanding of FOX formula is correct, that would be great. As always, I would appreciate all the helpful inputs with points.

Yes FOX can be difficult to achieve things that are simpler than simple
The way you described, it will only search fo a standard price on the same currency.
Try to set the currency as changeable characteristic and then search prices for each possible currency.
standard price value = {standard price, currency1} + {standard price, currency2} etc..
The possible currencies could also be filled in a variable which is read at runtime.

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!

Cost of goods sold for trading goods

In my company Cost based copa is configured.
We do manufacture and sale the goods, also we do trading to goods. for manufacturing goods the standard cost estimation is released but for trading we are not doing std cost estimation. In SD pricing procedure VPRS condition is incorporated to get cost of good manufactured. Now i want the cost of goods sold for Trading material to flow to co-pa.
How do i do it?
Do i need to create and release the std cost estimate for trading material? or there is any way i can manage the cogs to flow to co-pa actual cost.
Regards
Sanjay Petkar

One way is certainly to create standard cost estimates for the purchased products. Depending on your costing view qty structure and MRP view procurement settings you can use either CK40N or costing without qty stucture.
If you want moving average, then you need to exclude the purrchased material type from looking for a cost estimate in COPA, and then you need to link VPRS to your cost of sales key figure in PA.

Cost of Goods Sold in IS Oil

Hi Friends,
Could someone help out with what technologies/databases are being used to capture and maintain the Cost of Goods Sold? (e.g., SAP MM examples or something else) ?
I am working on a downstream project for an oil major and would like to determine which technology would be best for storing the cost of goods sold information.
Thanks
Sam

Hi Sam,
Cost of goods can be determined by any business software.I am big fan of SAP so I will suggest that SAP SD(Sales & distribution ) module will suit best to sales applications.You need to have SAP FI also to cater financial transactions.
Actually SAP ERP package conatins different blocks to cater different needs.
Some of important functionality provided by SAP is
Procure to Pay = SAP MM
Order to Cash = SAP SD
Hire to Retire = SAP HR
Cash to Paymane= SAP FI and these are very much integrated features.
Please see the link mentioned

there are lots of brochures /white papers link are available on this page which will give you fair amount of idea about this..

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

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
