Planning Process of Costing Sheets - Standard Cost Estimate

Can some one please explain which planning values costing sheets will pickup when processing standard cost estimate
Thanks.

For frozen standard cost (both legal frozen standard and profit center standard), maintaining planning costing sheets are used
KZZ2 (Percentage Overhead Type/Plant) and
KZM2 (Quantity Overhead Type/Plant)
Both [' will pickup when processing standard cost estimate']
The prerequisites are first check the following:
MM03 - check material standard price
CS03 - check material BOM
CA23 - check Rate Routing
KP27/KP26 - check/update Production Activity Type Price

Process Order Creation without Standard Cost

Hello All,
I need a functionality.. If standard cost is not released for a period , system should not allow me to create a process order in the certain period.
Is any standard configurations allow me to achieve this????
Thanks & regards
Mahesh

Mahesh,
Standard SAP allows creation of order without Std cost estimate. Only in REM you could make it give error.
However I suggest you could implement the exit PPCO0006.
In this the function module EXIT_SAPLCOZF_003 contains the import parameter CAUFVD_IMP which has material number (MATNR) and plant (WERKS). Pass these to table MBEW and get the value of STPRS (std cost). If this value is 0 then give the error.
Hope this is useful....if so reward points and close this thread.

OPM Process Execution and OPM Standard Costing for Poultry Business

I have a business requirement from the client at their Poultry Processing plant where the client feels that the OPM Execution steps are too cumbersome until closing the batches. The client wants to maintain minimum number of batches in Production: one for Primary, one for Secondary and one for Further Processing, rather than having multiple batches based on different formulas. There are 3 main types of processing which can be briefly described as follows:
A.) Primary Processing:
Live Birds (Ingredient) become Whole Dressed Chicken with Neck, without Neck, Liver, Heart, etc... (40 Finished Products)
e.g. Live Birds (Broiler) -> Whole Dressed Chicken with/without neck, Whole Dressed Chicken with/without neck, etc.
B.) Secondary Processing:
Only one type of Whole Dressed Chicken (from Primary Processing) become Chicken Cuts (80 Finished Products).
e.g.[Scenario B1] Whole Dressed Chicken (Broiler) -> Drumsticks, Thighs, Wings, Breasts, Backbone, etc.
[Scenario B2] Breasts -> Filets and Deboned Breasts (2 FGs)
[Scenario B3] Thighs -> Thighs in Plain Bag
Please note that the Whole Dressed Chicken is also sold as a Finished Good as well as an Ingredient for the Secondary Processing.
C.) Further Processing:
Chicken Cuts become 40 Finished Products
e.g Filets -> Chicken Nuggets, Chicken Fries, etc...
The client is using Standard Costing method for its OPM Financials and all the finished products (160 Products in all) are having different production cost. Please note that 1 kg of Chicken Wings is not equal to 1 Kg of Chicken Thighs. Different body parts have different costs. In order to alleviate the maintenance of multiple batches per day on the production floor, the client wishes to have minimum batches. We therefore would wish if you can confirm the below approach to be correct?
a.) OPM Process Execution:
==========================
EITHER should I (Option 1):
a.) Create ONLY 3 Formulas for Primary, Secondary and Further Processing . The 3 Formulas will have all the processing line Finished Products grouped together (as per the scenarios explained above). Formula for Primary and Secondary Processing can also combined together, reducing it to only 2 batches to maintain per day.
b.) Can set any Quantity Values for the Ingredient, Product and By-Product in the Formula details with ANY Cost Allocation (amounting to a total of '1') in the Products section
c.) Set the Validity Rules as 'PRODUCTION' for the 3 Recipes
d.) Complete the steps defined in the 'OPM Cost Management' (as described below)
e.) Create the 2 or 3 batches and record the appropriate quantities at the end of the day before closing the batches
OR should I (Option 2):
a.) Create MULTIPLE Formulas (above 100 formulas) for Primary, Secondary and Further Processing based on the different products processed.
b.) Can set any Quantity Values for the Ingredient, Product and By-Product in the Formula details with ANY Cost Allocation (amounting to a total of '1') in the Products section
c.) Set the Validity Rules as 'PRODUCTION' for the 3 Recipes
d.) Complete the steps defined in the 'OPM Cost Management' (as described below)
e.) Create the MULTIPLE batches and record the appropriate quantities at the end of the day before closing the batches.
b.) OPM Cost Management:
========================
Whether (Option 1 or Option 2) selected, the below needs to be set for OPM Costing:
a.) Define multiple formulas (above 100), as in Option 2.
b.) Set the Quantity value to be '1' for the Ingredient, Product and By-Product in the Formula details with the appropriate Cost Allocation in the Products section
c.) Set the Validity Rules as 'COSTING' and 'PRODUCTION' for each Recipe
d.) Run Cost Rollup at least once so that the products can have an item cost per unit
As per me, for the purpose of Costing, it would be imperative to have multiple batches (created one time only) with appropriate Cost Allocation in the Formulas and the ‘Recipe Use’ in the Validity Rules should be set as ‘COSTING’. Then, setting Profile Option 'GMF: Use Only Costing Validity Rules for Cost Rollup' to 'Yes'. In this way, we are sure that the different products in the formula with correct Cost Allocation will have their Item Cost calculated after performing the Cost Rollup. AND, for the purpose of operations, we can only one combined formula of Live Birds (as Ingredients) to yield -> All FGs for Primary and Secondary Processing with Cuts. But, this time, the ‘Recipe Use’ in the Validity Rules of the Recipe should be set as ‘PRODUCTION’.
I want to confirm which approach (Option 1 or Option 2) is more appropriate in terms of Operations and confirm that the above proposed steps are correct with no circular reference (as certain finished products are also used as ingredients for another product in the Secondary Processing)?
Thanks and regards

Hi Raveesh
I am implementing OPM R12 in Poultry Processing business, I think option 1 (Create 3 formulas/recipes/batches) is more appropriate. In my case we are using actual costing (Moving Average) as a costing method.
I have set the profile option GMF: Cost Allocation Factor Calculation to be "Dynamic" to calculate the batch cost allocations as a ratio of actual quantity of each product produced to the total production batch output quantity and I have used OPM Financial Cost Allocation process to allocate GL expenses on different products based on Fixed percentage % according to product "value" where Filets has a return more than wings.
Can you please share your knowledge in this business area and confirm to what extend my approach is correct ??
Thank you and best regards

Planed cost and standard cost

hi sap guru's
What happens when u dont flag balance in local currency in gl master?
What is diff between planed cost and stand cost where will u give standard cost in MM?

Hi Ramu,
Generally the only balances in local currency will be checked for balance sheet items because it is mandatory to submit the balance sheet in local currency for outsiders/govt.
Standard Cost in the constant cost for a material. Planned cost is cost for the material for the future period. We will give Standard Price in Accounting 1 view of the material master.

Include Tool cost in Standard cost of material

Hi
I have a scenario where we use consumable tools in manufacturing the end product , which is 'nut'. We use roughly 80 tools in the manufacturing process. Each tool has its life. For eg. Tool A will be used to manufacture 10,000,000 nuts. The production lot size is usually 900,000 and the tool will be used for more than10 production orders.
Since the tool is being reused for various production orders, i have problems in bringing its cost. I cannot give 0.1 pc as the unit of measure for tool is per piece. If i give 1 piece, since its being reused, the cost will not be accurate and there will be huge variance.
Any ideas on how to deal with this?
Thanks

Hi,
is there an operation for tool usage within the production order where time confirmation happens?
And correlates the tool usage with the time confirmed?
If yes, post the tool consumption to the cost center that is a assigned to the work center that is used in this operation and in the cost center (plan) activity rate cover the tool cost overall.
Result: Each time confirmation valuated with the activity rate contains a portion of tool cost.
best regards, Christian

Use of Costing Sheet in Cost Center Master Data

In the Template tab of the cost center master data there is a provision to mention Costing Sheet under the heading Overhead rates.
How does it work? Does it work for actual or plan?
I want to use ACTUAL assessment cycle between a sender cost center and few receiver cost centers. I want to add % overheads to the expenses posted on receiver cost centers. Can I do this by mentioning a costing sheet in ther sender / receiver cost center?
If yes then how? If not what is the alternative?

VRB

Cost sheets--PRODUCT COSTING

Hi Friends,
In Product costing i have two scenarios-- MAKE TO STOCK AND MAKE TO SALE ORDER.
For make to stock the costing variant will be PPC1
AND for make to sale order the costing variant will be PPC4
we can give different cost sheets for PPC1 AND PPC4
But in in cost object controlling for the costing variants PPP1 (Planing) AND PPP2 (Actual) we can give only one cost sheet which is used while creating production order.
How to provide different cost sheets(Mak to stock and Make to sale order) here in cost object controlling also?
Any ideas ? Full points will be awarded.
Regards
siva

You are unable to attach separate costing sheets to PPC1 and PPC4 because the valuation variant in the two costing variants is the same. (based on the standard config that I can see)
SAP does not allow the valuation variant for a costing variant to be changed after creation. To get a different cost sheet requires a different valuation variant, which would require building a new costing variant - we did do that and named it ZPC4.
If you want the valuation different BY PLANT, go to the valuation variant tab of your costing variant and look for a selection "Valuation Variant/Plant" (in 5.0 this is a button in the upper left corner of the screen). Here you can make plant specific valuation variant configuration. We use this for manufacturing plants - all plants use ZPC2 costing variant for standard cost to be released, but each plant has their own costing sheet as defined in "Valuation Variant/Plant"
Just remember to test, test, test.
As to this question: In such case make to stock and make to order can not be done in the same Plant--Right? our make to order is for non-valuated stock, so all costs move to the sales at the standard value of the actual quantities used. Depending on what is added to make Cost of good sold, I don't know how you would get the "Actual" on to the manufacturing order so that it would settle to the sales order. - it is after all a manufacturing order. have you tried doing the COGS on the sales order instead of the mfg order?
Obviously this question is a bit out of my usual practice. Someone else may have experience with this. But one other thought to keep in mind with your costing variants - which costing/valuation variant is used to release standard cost for inventory purposes? To me that is the value that you want associated with production orders because mfg variances will generate from that cost.
Hope some of this is helpful

Material Ledger,Revaluation Production Cost Center ,Standard Cost

Hi, I have a problem with revaluation of production cost centers.
Firstly, production cost center expenses are settled via activity types onto the production order at the end of the period. However, CKMLCP revaluate cost centers after the settlement because of using standard price. So cost centers at the end of the period have some amount.
As a result we can not find actual price for production orders.
If I use standard cost in order to consume on cost centers, material ledger revaluates again this cost centers. I dont want this condition. Because this cost center is settled to other cost object before closing.
Thanks.

Hi
Go to the following path in SPRO:
Controlling -> Product Cost Controlling -> Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Actual Costing -> Activate Actual Costing. Double-click on "Actiavte Actual Costing" and change the indicator from "2" to "1".

Scrap costs in Standard Costs without adding scrap factor in BOM

Running one part number, multiple operations in factory.
Need to account for Standard Cost including Scrap, but do not want to inflate BOM using a scrap factor. How can we maintain accurate backflush of matls and capture scrap costs for use in Stds?

If you do not want to consider the scrap qty. in operations but want to consider it only for costing purpose, then create a costing BOM i.e. usage 6. In this BOM you can maintain the scrap. Also ensure the costing variant which you're using has a priority of costing bom over say production bom or universal bom.
Discuss this with your costing person as well.

OPM - Lot Costing versus standard Costing

Is there a flag on the item master or elsewhere that tells me whether an item is lot costed?

Dear Neil,
For externally processed operations/products, you have to maintain Purchase Info Record by selecting
the radio button for Sub-contracting using T code ME11 and you will be maintaing the processing cost in
this Info record.So this will be picked automatically by the system and ensure for that particular
operation(externally processed) the control key should be PP02.
So after doing all these,check once again in CKW1.
Check & Revert back.

Standard cost and planned cost

Hi Gurus,
Can you illustarate the difference between planned cost and standard cost by taking one example.
Thanks&Regards
Janardhan Reddy.p

Hi Srinivas Muthyala,
I would like to confirm my understanding regard the points below also;
1. Production Variance is calculated by using PLANNED cost;
2. STANDARD cost is only the value for benchmarking; and
3. I found PLANNED cost = 0, STANDARD cost = x & MOVING AVERAGE cost = x (in some cases)
that means no issued production order.

Cost Sheet from SAP

Dear All,
I am consulting with Cement Industry client, here we have only one Final Product i.e., Cement. We implemented SAP FI and CO module 2 yrs back but till now they are not using Controlling module properly in SAP. Now they need total costing from SAP, mainly Cost Sheet as per Indian cement industrys format. We are following repetetive manufacturing process, by using Product Cost Collectors. Can any body explain what to check for getting Cost Sheet and useful T.codes please.
Regards,
Prasad

The process in SAP costing is you set a standard cost estimate for a material (say Cement bag) and release it to the material master. The cost estimate shall be with quantity structure (i.e with a Bill of material and routing). This will serve as the standard for all production during the year (or any period you decide). To do this you need to set up a costing variant T-code OKKN)
You also need to design a cost component structure created OKTZ to capture various cost element that would be involved in representing the cost of making the cement bag. This can be tailored to suit the format regulated by the industry.
For e.g
Raw materials to include powder of alumina, silica, lime, iron oxide, and magnesium oxide)
Conversion (kiln operations cost)
Pulverizing
Depreciation (of kiln etc)
Labour cost
Packaging etc.
Once you have assigned, you can run the cost estimate through CK40N collectively or cK11N individually.
Cost sheet or costing sheet within SAP is a terminology used to allocate overheads to products. You can also use this feature (found under SPRO>Controlling>PCP>Basic settings>Overheads) This feature will ensure to transfer cost from cost centers to the products on any preferred basis.

Cost sheet preparation

We have a requirement which needs to be configured in Standard SAP, without using any customized functionality the scenarios is as fallows:
Preparation of Cost Sheet:
Company XX needs to procure material M1 (Like Cartons) for Plant A, plant B which is manufactured by Primary Vendor PV1, PV2.
The price for procurement of material M1 has to be determined using cost sheet
Primary Vendor PV1, PV2 Procures Raw materials and Packaging materials required to manufacture material M1 from Secondary vendor SV1, SV2, SV3
The rates of these materials are added into cost sheet as cost of components.
The rate for these materials varies depending on quota allotted for that particular
Secondary vendor SV1, SV2.
Cost sheet consists of
Cost of Component materials required for mfg Material M1( These components called Feed stock
Materials are procured by secondary vendor)
Working Capital of Primary Vendor
Conversion cost
Discounts
Surcharges
Transportation cost
ETc.....

Hi!
cost component structure is to split your total costs to material ( direct & inditiect), labour cost, over head costs in order to identify seperate costs for analysis purpose. transaction code is :OKTZ.
first you have to define cost component attributes , then assign cost elements for each attributes and then assign this structure to your company code.
while executing the standard cost estimate of materials, total cost will be displayed by splitting the costs according to cost component structure.

Cost sheet without activity(Product costing)

Hi,
In our company code all earlier created cost sheets have activities, which are assigned in cost element group. And in base of the cost sheet, this cost element group has been assigned.
Now in the new process, for which the cost sheet to be prepared, there are only overheads and no activities.
Is it necessary to create cost element group?
Is it necessary to assign the cost element group in Base?
Any activity to be created by assigning zero value in KP26 for routing purpose?
Please suggest.
Prakash.

Hi,
Yes. You need to assign the cost element group where the base cost shall be available to calculate the surcharge on the basis of overhead percentages.
Activities shall not be found in Costing sheet. It is assigned in work center and KP26, you enter the planned prices. That is separate. In costing sheet you need to define overhead percentages.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

Actual costing/standard costing

Dear all,
can anybody sugg me what is actual costing&standard costing.and what's difference between two.
regards
usha.

Dear UshaRani,
Standard Cost/Product Cost = Materials Cost(Raw Materials Cost Semi Finished Materials Cost)
Activity Cost(Operation Cost)
1.For all your ROH - Raw materials maintain price control indicator as V and enter the value as Planned
Price 1 and Planned Price Date 1 under Costing 2 View - Planned price tab.
2.For all your Inhouse manufactured semi-Finished(HALB) and In house manufactured Finished materials
(FERT) maintain price control indicator as S and dont enter any value directly in accouting view.
3.For activity's cost(Operation Cost) comes via ---> work centre in which the operation is performed.
4.A cost centre and an activity type where a rate has been maintained for that cost centre and activity type
(T code KP26) will be linked to the work centre under costing tab.
5.As per the operation time,the cost is getting calculated.
6.Overhead cost is the indirect cost which's spend during production.
7.So when the cost rollup is taken using T code CK40N (or else using CK11N estimating & CK24 for
marking and release) all this cost gets added and the materials standard cost is calculated and same is
marked in Costing 2 view under Current Planned price column.
8.Standard cost estimate is done for FERT materials so that automatically the system does for Semi-
Finished products also.
9.Actual Costing is nothing but the value of the materials( Raw-materials cost) when production
confirmation is made for the operation.
10. Say there's a raw material X whose planned price is Rs 10/,so while doing GR for this material Let's
assume for a quantity of 10 the value is Rs120/-,so now the actual value becomes 120/10 = Rs 12.
I hope this will help you to some extent.

Mangalraj.S
