Planned issues against a Product Cost Collector

Hi, I am very new to Product costing and currently looking to find out the planned quantities that are there against the actual quantities that are issued through a Product Cost Collector for producing a Semi finished good maintained in Kg. Any help?
Thanks
Deepankar

Hi
The issue is solved.
The problem was on our end that some of the transports were missing. Ajay was right and those transports were missing.
Thanks Ajay.
Really appreciate it

  • Assesment To Product Cost Collector

    Dear All
    Do you know how to do assesment from cost center to Product cost Collector based on activity quantity that input by Production planning modul?
    Thanks

    Dear Shankar,
    As you explained it's not possible to perform GI through MIGO or MB1A against a product cost collector.
    In case if you want to post the extra component consumption,use component backflush radio button in
    MFBF and select do you want to post as per the BOM components(select the radio button for Propose
    components according to BOM) or else you can enter the components manually (by selecting the radio
    button for No BOM explosion).
    I hope through this can post the components,because the cost gets booked in the product cost collector.
    Check and revert

  • Product cost collector for sales order related production

    Hi Friends,
    This is Azam and here i am new to this discussion forum.
    we are in situation that use diffrent variant for configurable material in sales order related production,
    I would like to have some information about use product cost collector for this kind of sales order related production,
    also I want to know difference between prelimanary cost estimate or cost estimate for sales order?
    Please co-operate me.
    I would be highly appriciated if you can respond at the earliest.
    Thanks
    Azam

    Hi,
    Here, for each sales order item, you will have sales order cost estimate. This enables the system to compute the variances once the actual costs are booked against the production.
    In the case of preliminery cost, we get the preliminery cost for production order as a plan cost and is not being used for the computation of variance but only for comparision purpose which is very marginally used.
    Trust this helps much and do encourage our efforts!
    Cheers!

  • Error while creating Product Cost Collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    While creating Product Cost Collector I am getting the following Error:
    Enter a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit
    Message no. KD059
    Diagnosis
    The settlement profile used requires you to define a distribution rule for Order. For period 009 2008, however, you have not created a distribution rule for Order.
    Procedure
    Create a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit, because, if the distribution rule does have a validity limit, the system always issues this message in the period following the last valid period.
    You can also use a different settlement profile that does not require such a distribution rule, or change the settlement rule used.
    Can any one help where exactly i need to maintain this.
    The settlement profile settings are fine.
    I am getting this error only after i have changed the scenario to Reproting point back flushing

    Dear Suryanarayana
    Please check the corresponding settlement profile for product orders.
    In most of the cases message KD059 means that no distribution rule is assigned to your production order.
    This is not an error, but the system design. In order to avoid message KD059 you will either have to enter settlements parameters and a distribution, or change settlement profile for valid receivers in transaction OKO7 from 'settlement required' to 'Can be settled'.
    I hope this helps resolve the issue for you. I wish you the best in your endeavours.
    Kind Regards,
    Brendan

  • Transfer of Costs in Product Cost Collector to COPA

    Dear Experts,
    Please can you advise me on this current issue I'm having. Below is a description of problem:
    Customer is currently using report designed in COPA (KE30) to derive P&L report for using Plant as a characteristic.
    This was being done at a time when Product Costing functionality was not being used
    All costs (administrative, sales and production costs) were being collected in cost centers
    At end of month assessment of cost center values to COPA is executed (KEU5)
    Customer is then able to derive P&L report per Plant characteristic
    However with implementation of Product Costing, all Production related costs are captured in Product Cost Collectors and not Cost Center
    Hence we have no way of assessing or transferring total production costs from Product Cost Collector to CO-PA
    We have tried to configure FI/MM PA transfer structure (KEI1) and default account assignment (OKB9) for automatic transfer of costs on goods receipt/issue, however this is not working because the product cost collector is used as the default account assignment for the transactions
    So far only material cost valuation of sales/billed materials are possible (which does not address concern)
    As a result we have a gap and customer is unable to derive P&L by Plant from CO-PA.
    Can you advise if there is a way out, in order to have all Production Cost transferred to CO-PA.
    Thanks,
    Ola.

    Hi Ola
    Your Cost centers would be categorized as below
    1. MFG Cost Centers (In Plant)
    2. Service Cost Centers (In Plant)
    3. Few Cost centers (outside plant) Eg: Sales, Marketing, Sales offices etc
    At period end
    1. Allocate the Costs from SER CC to MFG CC using Distribution / Assessment cycle.
    This will make SER CC as zero
    2. Calculate actual activity price in MFG CC (KSS2 / KSII)
    3. After this, do revaluation of PCC using CON2.. This will make balance in MFG CC as zero
    4. Allow the Variances to be updated to COPA by ticking the "Variances to Costing based COPA" in your settlement profile
    5. In short, what remains for you to allocate to COPA is the 3rd category of CC.. i.e. you should allocate those CC to COPA whose cost is not included in the cost of product using COPC module

  • CO88 - Collective Settlement Processing for Product cost collectors

    Hello Gurus,
    I have couple of Settlement related problems. Please advice if you have any solution to fix these problems.
    1.We are using CO88 - Collective Settlement Processing for Product cost collectors but some of the cost collectors are not settling fully. Where as the same cost collector settled individually without any problem.
    2. Some cost collectors are settled but very small amounts are still there as un-settled.
    Thanks in advance.
    Vishwanath.

    Hi
    Welcome to SDN! We hope your 1st experience here is good
    Issue 1: It depends on the error that you got at the time of settlement... Many times, when a PCC is being posted to from Production while you are trying to settle, it can give you error...
    later on it can be settled w/o any issues
    Issue 2: Ideally there does not remain any amount after settlement.. May be the amount which you are seeing pertains to the next month.. You can shift to periodic view using CtrlShiftF11 and see if any balance really exists

  • REM Product cost collectors and Production version

    Hi All,
    Can some one pls let me know
    What are the product cost collectors in REM and how to create the product cost collectors ?
    What is the production version and the difference between production version and controlling version?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Bujji

    Dear Bujji,
    A product cost collector is a cost object in Product Cost by Period that collects the periodic actual costs incurred in the production of a material. It can be created in txn KKF6N.
    [Product Cosr Collector|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
    [Product Cost Collectors: Collective Entry for Repetitive Manufacturing |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
    A production version determines the various production techniques that can be used to produce a material. It defines the following information:
    Alternative BOM for a BOM explosion
    Task list type, task list group, and group counter for assignment to task lists
    Lot-size restrictions and period of validity
    A material can have one or more production versions.
    It can be defined in the Material Master (txn MM02) in one of the following views:
    MRP 4
    Work Scheduling
    Costing 1
    The costing version is a different issue. It is a costing parameter and is used to save several cost estimates for the same material, with the same costing variant and the same costing date (e.g. in oder to cost the material several times with minor changes without creating new costing variants).

  • Product Cost Collectors not settled to GL's during Period end Close

    Hi,
    We are using the repetative manufacturing process. We have an issue with our repetative manufacturing orders, during the monthly period end close.The product cost collectors WIP is not been settled to GL's.
    The normal production orders are been settled to the GL's and both use the same settlement profile.
    Can anyone suggest where could be the problem?
    Thanks,
    Srini

    Hi,
    In the SAP standard (as per the transaction codes indicated by you) it is not possible to include multiple plants. Either you have to execute for one Plant or for all plants. Probably, in Test run you can execute for all Plants and check the results, and then decide.
    Thanks

  • Abolish product cost collector for production order

    Dear Experts,
    we use for some production order types the product cost collector. Now we plan to abolish them and change the settlement for production order. Which things do we have to pay attention? Do we have to finish our running production orders first or is it possible to change customizing during running production process. Thanks for your hepl!
    Best regards
    Steffen

    Hi Ajay,
    thank you for your answer.
    We have tested two variants:
    1. new order type, so we can process two separate settlements, for orders with PCC and the new orders without PCC. After archiving of all prodorders with pcc, archiving of pcc it should be possible to switch back to old order type.
    2. change customizing without finishing existing orders, settlement for existing orders, all orders which already have been processed will be settled by pcc (status pcc usage in order header) We have not be seen any strange system behavior.
    We use the pcc collector for different order types in different plants and want to abolish plant by plant. In this time the pcc will still be customized/exists.
    Best regards
    Steffen

  • Target costs on Product cost collectors

    Hi,
    we have a problem with target costs on product cost collector.
    For the product cost collectors which are existing from long time, it is not updating target costs as soon as backflushing(Goods issue and goods receipt at same time) is done.
    For the product cost collectors which are created newly it is updating target costs as soon as backflushing is done.
    so we would like to know exactly at what point of time target costs will be updated on product cost collector.
    Thanks,
    Santosh Malisetti.

    Hi Rich,
    After researching little bit we found that its a standard functionality for product collector's not to update target costs until we do the variance caluculation. But there is one special case. When a new product collector is created it will update the target costs when backflushing(GI and GR ) is done, but this will happen during first month only. once this product cost collector has participated in variance calculation process, it will not update the target costs when backflushing is done,
    until it participates in  variance calculation again.
    Thanks,
    Santosh

  • Profit center in Product cost collector

    Hi,
    We need to change the profit center in the product cost collector after the actual postings were made. SAP does not allow to change the profit center. So any other work around solution for this issue? Can somebody help me with this?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raghava

    Hi Bhuvaneswari,
    We are having a situation,
    The issue is to change the profit center for the product collector after the actual postings were made. Now the big problem is there is no PA transfer structure defined to execute the settlement for these product cost collectors and then change the profit center. Can you give some work around solution for this? And also what about the postings made previously.
    To give more insight,
    In the order type, Settlement profile is maintained
    In the Settlement profile, Allocation structure is maintained
    How do you link the settlement profile / allocation structure to the PA transfer structure?
    I can not settle the order (Product cost collector) as there is no PA transfer structure
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raghava

    Hi Leo,
    Can you elaborate your issue, like when did you get the error exactly?
    If it is the error you got while creating Product Cost Collector, then this is not the right Forum to post.

  • Product Cost Collector

    Dear All,
    I have four different prod. version of a single material and i am using product cost collector as Repetitive manufacturing is there.
    so i make 4 product cost collectors and run preliminary cost estimates for all these versions. and also i have run standard cost estimates for one version (001)to settle standard cost on material. So whenever i run kkbc_pko report for planned vs actual cost analysis then if in actual i am using version 004 for PRODUCTION, THEN TARGET COST COMES FROM VERSION 001 (FROM STANDARD COSTING RUN ) AND ACTUAL FROM VERSION 004. which arises so many variances.
    actually i want to have target cost from same version and also actual cost from same version so that i can see actual variance.
    How is it possible.

    Dear Shoaib,
    Plz Refer the below link
    [Standard cost estimate run with more than one PV;
    Hope the above helps you

  • Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
    Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
    When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
    By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
    Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
    Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
    And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
    Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
    many thanks!

    problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.
