PM work order estimate cost

I wanted to ask regarding "Estimated cost of work order"
Ponit 1- In Transaction IW32 (change work order) change the Estimated Cost field so that it does not u201Cgrey outu201D after the work order has been released. This field is available for data entry while the work order is in the CRTD status but cannot be accessed once the Work Orders changes to REL status.--is it possible to change the estimated cost after Work order released
Point2 - If ponit 1 is not possible, an alternative is to have the planned cost of the work order auto fill the estimated cost field if no value is entered when the release flag is executed. (that means can we take planned cost as estimated cost automatically if estimated cost field is blank)
our clints want these two functionality. please any body know on thes issues let me know.
thanks in advance for your help

Prakash,
Estimated cost field in work order is free text field
In work order header tab cost field, you can make mandatory setting via OIAN for all order types
Thanks

Hi Kiran,
The error message clearly says that "Cost Center validity starts from 01.10.2014" i.e. in the future period.
Change the cost center from period in the past date and try.

Work Order to cost center settlement with line item detail

Iu2019m having difficulty finding a method to settle from a work order to a cost center with line item detail. When an order is settled with KO88 or KO8G the total value for that work order/cost element combination is combined and posted to the cost center as a lump sum with the description of CTR\######. Users would like to see the individual values that posted to the work order in a cost center report such as KSB1.
I donu2019t see anything in the settlement rule, settlement profile or allocation structure that will allow line item settlement from work order to cost center. Is line item settlement possible when settling to a cost center? Is there an alternate way to see these expenses as line items in KSB1?
Thanks,
Jeff

Thanks Christian,
We've defined an allocation structure that we use for Project System and Work Order settlement and have Receiver Categories established as FXA, CTR and WBS with "by Cost Element" checked. Work order costs do settle to the cost center entered in the settlement rule, the problem is it combines all items values as a single amount when posting to the cost center.
For example:
expenses post to the work order under cost element 500000 for $500, $200, $300 and cost element 600000 for $250 and $250. The settlement rule says to settle to cost center 170000. When the settlement takes place cost center 170000 is debited $1000 to cost element 500000 and $500 to cost element 600000. We would prefer to see individual posting of $500, $200, $300 to 500000 and $250, $250 to 600000.
Thanks,
Jeff

The additive cost can not display on the work order plan cost

dear friends
first i run the ck74n for the additive cost ,second i run the ck11n for cost estimate ,i can see that the additive cost update to the standard cost successfully ,at last i run the ck24 mark and release the standard cost,but when i raise a work order ,i can not see the additive cost in the plan cost ,i do not know the reason ,do you have some suggestion
thanks

Hi
This behaviour is expected and standard...
In Std cost estimate, you have the option of inputting components manually in CK74N... But the actual costs in Prod order will come either from Material issues/Activity Confirmations or manual postings from FI... There is no option to enter additive costs in actuals.. Hence, there is no option of "additive costs" in the Planned costng variant of Prod order
If you enter any additive costs in CK11N, It is done because you cant estimate it through Qty Structure.. But, during actuals, the actual costs are all available through Material issues/Activity Confirmations.. hence, the additive costs does not apply here

Work Order & Activity Costs

Iu2019m extracting the underlying SAP tables so I can populate a Data Warehouse with Work Orders information and I have identified the following SAP tables:
u2022     Work Order tables: AFFL, AFKO, AFPO, AFRU, AFVC, AFVU, AFVV, AUFK, AUFM
u2022     Bill of Material tables: MAPL, MAST, MKAL, PLAS, PLKO, PLPO, STAS, STLO, STPO
u2022     Activity Cost tables: CKIS, CKIT, COST
u2022     Other tables of interest: CHRD, CRTX, CSLA, CSLT, CSSL, JSTO, PLMZ, RESB, S022
With the Work Order & Bill of Material tables I can identify the actual & target materials quantities & costs and I can also identify the actual & target activity / resource time spend. The problem I have is that I canu2019t detect the join between the Work Order tables and the Activity Cost tables, so there must be a table (or two) missing that creates this link.
Will you help?

Thank you for your assistance. Finally found the table that best answered my question in COEP.
Discovered lots of useful tables along the way.

Work orders planned cost report

Hello
In our organization, works order can have two types of settlement receivers (cost centers or internal orders). To report planned cost by receivers, we create automatically groups of works orders (by receiver) and uses standard transaction S_ALR_*.
But it works only if settlement is not modified.
Does one of you know a better way to report those costs?
Thanks

Hi,
I don't want to report planned costs by maintenance objects but by receivers.
For exmaple: i have 2 work orders on the same receiver (cost center 1)
WO1 CC1 11/2011 500u20AC
WO2 CC1 11/2011 600u20AC
I try to report planned cost for CC1

Settlenent of Work Order on different WBS

Dear expert,
In PM Order (IW31) , operation tab i have a list of operation for that different activity types are mintained
against the work center , i want to settle the different operation against the different WBS elements
for ex. 0010 to 0050 operation on one WBS element
and 0060 to 0100 operation on another WBS .
at the same time the no. of operation is more than say 100
In settlement rule it not practical to give % for every WBS as no of WBS are also more.
My problem is how to settle the every operations against different WBS as n... number of operations are there.
Rahul

Hi,
Its not possible to settle different orders on different WBS as WBS is defined at teh header level.
But two other options you can try:
Define activities types in work centre and these activities types will work as a linkage between work centre and cost centre. So for perticular activities used in work centre and then usd in work order the cost can directly be moved to cost centre operation wise.
More you will get if you go to teh costing tab of the work centre. In that case your cost will be directly settled to a cost cenre not on WBS.
Or you can create a sub orders for different operations. there you can deifne WBS based on same operations.Means WBS 1 for main order and itz corresponding operations , then create a sub orders for seconf group of operations with other WBS.

Work order( maintainence order) settlement

hi,
i want to know whether the cost center used for settlement of work order and cost center assigned to work center are same or not. please help me with this. can anyone give some examples of scenarios.
thanks,
Monica

Monica,
Settlement: Example from SAP - Help
The following example illustrates the creation and processing of an order from the point of view of order settlement.
The Order
In a clarification plant, three pumps are to be cleaned in the pumping station. All three pumps are installed at the same functional location.
Planning and Planning Data
The planner creates an order, enters the functional location C1-B01 (pumping station) as a reference object and enters the three pumps in the object list. The order is to be settled to the pumping station cost center, which has the number 511. This means that all the costs posted to the order for cleaning the three pumps will be settled to cost center 511 when the job is complete.
The order data comprises the following:
Data on the Performing Work Center "PSC" (pump fitters):
Entry
Number of persons performing the job : 2
Performing cost center (= cost center of the employees performing the job): 909
Activity type: Cleaning
Planned number of work hours per person per pump: 1
Cost of activity type per hour: $ 150
Total planned work hours: 6
Total labor costs: $ 900
Data for Scheduled Material:
Entry
Consumption posting to the amount of: $ 150
Releasing and Processing the Order
Once the planning stage is complete, the planner releases the order for processing.
The employees from work center "PSC" start the work:
They withdraw the material scheduled for the order from the warehouse. Actual costs of $150 are incurred for the order and are debited directly from the balance sheet account.
The employees confirm the length of time they worked on the order. It took them a little longer than planned, so that the resulting actual costs posted to the order are $1050. These costs are credited to the performing work center.
Situation After Completion of the Work
After the work has been completed and the order settled, the debits are as follows:
Balance on the order: $ 0.00
Debit to the receiver cost center 511 (pumping station): $ 1200.00
Hope this gives you a fair idea as what it should be, Reward your points if this was helpful.

Prasobh

Actual costs posted to work order without maintaining costing variant

hi,
i havent maintained costing variant for work order(maintenance order) type i used to create the work order. so when i posted goods issue, how does the actual costs get posted with out maintaining the costing variant for work order type. what is the role of costing variant configuration in work order type settings.
thanks,
monica

Hi monica,
Costing variant forms the link between the application and Customizing, since all cost estimates are carried out and saved with reference to a costing variant. The costing variant contains all the control parameters for costing.
The configuration parameters are maintained for costing type, valuation variants, date control, and quantity structure control.In costing type we specify which field in the material master must the price be updated,
In valuation variant we specify in what order the system should go about accessing prices for the material master planned price, standard price, moving average price etc. Further which is the price which should be considered for activity price. How the system should select BOM and routing.
assign points if useful

Order BOM Cost Estimate

I am working in an MTO environment i run order bom cost estimate immediately after creation of sales order. When I save the estimate, value against condition type EK02 gets update in sales order.
As far I know EK02 is a statistical condition, value in the EK02 is not used in price determination however condition type EK01 is used in price determination.
I want to understand that what happens when we save order bom cost estimate. And fields gets updated with this. And how the value in EK01 is used in price determination.

Hi
EK02 stores the Sales order cost estimate... The PGI and related goods movement happen at this value... This field helps you identify whether the PGI value posted in accounting docs is correct or not...

Work Order Cost Rolling Up to WBS Element!

Hi everyone,
I created a Project A with WBS structure in PS (not statistical WBS structure). And then I assigned a work order to one of the WBS element A.0001. I did not post any cost to the WBS element directly. I only charged $1000 to the work order. Now when I use CN41N to generate the cost report and I found the $1000 in work order rolled up to WBS element A.0001 ($1000 showed at work order level and also WBS element level). Then I settled $1000 in the work order to a WBS element C.0001 in Project C. When I run CN41N again to see the cost in Project A, the $1000 still showed up at work order level, but it did not show up at WBS element level A.0001. I need the cost to roll up at WBS element level also, so this is a big problem for me.
I did several test. Assigned another work order to this WBS element A.0001 and charged another $1000 to the work order. Then I settled them to cost center directly instead of to WBS element. The $1000 showed up at the work order level and also at WBS element level (the cost rolled up from work order to the WBS element in that report). Then I tried to settle to GL account, the cost will roll up to WBS element too.
So I found only when I settle the cost to WBS element, the cost won't roll up. I think it might be a configuration problem. Does anyone know where I need to configure in order to let the cost roll up to the WBS element after I settle the Work order to a WBS elements?
Really appreciate your help!

Hi Martina,
This is awesome, very helpful! Now I know how to deal with it.

Work Order Costs

Hi Experts!!
We need a report on the work order costs, however, we have some non-valuated materials in the components list. We are trying to pull the costs of the non-valuated materials from the Purchase Info Records and show that costs as part of the Warehouse Issues Actual cost. I thought this would be a custom report - Please let me know if any standard report is available or any way of tweaking the standard report.
Also I am able to see the Actual/Planned costs of the order on iw33 costs tab. I am trying to find out if there is any standard FM that i could use to get the work order costs. Also is there any infosets that i could use to pull the data for the jobs costs in my custom report.
Regards,
Yuvi.

Hi,
Have a look at transaction IW3M(Goods movement for order),It might be easier to modify this to pick up the Last PO price (Or Info rec price) for the non valuated materials.
Have a look at FM PM_WORKORDER_COSTS_LIST this will list out the costs at the value category level and also show the total costs, very similar to what IW33 shows.
The costing information can be picked up from table PMCO.

Work Order & Cost Center Commitment Management

We have a business requirement to be able to view our work order commitments (Reqs and POs) from the work order as well as from the cost center assigned to the work order via a settlement rule. Our business users do not like the work order collecting all of the costs instead of the cost center where they perform their cost controlling.
The actuals will settle to the cost center eventually but without the commitments they have no way of planning for future costs. Commitments management is activated for both the cost centers and work orders involved. I am open to any suggestions on how to achive this requirement. Thanks!

Any thoughts?

Issue with Cost center in PO and Work Order

Dear Expert,
I am facing an issue with respect to cost center in Purchase Order and Work Order. The PO is made against a work order. There are two cost center associated with the work order. One is updated under u201CAdditional datau201D field and other is at u201Clocationu201D . So the cost center in PO should essentially be the same one mentioned under u2018locationu2019 field of work order. So the issue here is that while creating PO, the cost center is picked from the u201Cadditional datau201D field of work order not from u2018locationu2019 field of WO.
Is there any exit available that needs to be implemented for overriding the cost center in PO or any other way of solving this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Deba

Hi,
I guess that there is already some user exit or enhancement in place, since this doesn't sound like standard SAP (picking the cost data from additional data, or even having it there).

Transfer Costs from AUC to Work Order

Hi,
Pre go-live balaces where loaded directly to the AUC, as opposed to the Work Order then settled to the AUC.
All of our capital reporting is done at work order level, therefore I want to transfer the balance from the AUC to the work order and then re-settle the work order back to the AUC. At present we cannot see the legacy costs relating to the capital project against the work order.
Is it possible to transfer costs off the AUC back to the Work Order?
Thanks
Jonski

Andres,
Yes you could accomplish it through the process you had mentioned.It would probably be the simplest way to accomplish your requirement as well.
