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.

Book revenue on this month but the cost of goods sold need to get from last month

Hi experts,
I have a question about cost and revenue. We have a standing service repair order and a contract to customer. Because the revenue is calculated by flight cycle so maybe when we get the flight cycle information for this month should be the midle of next month. Due to the monthly end close schedule I need to book the revenue on this month but the cost of the revenue we need the get the cost occur last month. For example, current month is May, 2014 and I book the revenue and posting date is May, 31, 2014. But the cost I just want the amount occurred in customer service order(IW31) on Apr, 2014. And the cost occured in May, 2014 should become WIP. Is it possible? Please advise.

How to post cost of goods sold to io per functional area and account determ

1. We create a sales order with reference to a revenue IO with functional area ABC01.
2. We create a delivery document on the sales order and goods issue XYZ.
3. We expect the cost of goods sold for the coal to hit an existing IO with functional area ABC02 based on account determination for XYZ.
4. Instead we see both the revenue and the COGS hitting the revenue IO on the Sales roder.
5. For now, the accountants responsible for those companies have been making journal entries all along to correct the postings.
Please advise what needs to be done for step 3 to happen so that the extra step 5 need not be done.
(IO - internal order)
Thanks,
Venkat

What is the IO you have assigned in the Sales Order please?
Just check the Sales Order - Account assignement, so that you can able to change if there is a different IO.
System won't pick up IO automayically until unless you secify in Sales order to done OKB9 settings.
Chek the above
Thanks

Cost of Goods sold value problem

Dear all,
In a Make To Stock, material use "Moving average" case.
For example
1-Sep: Moving avg = $30
15-Sep: Sales & PGI (A)
30-Sep: Moving avg = $70
30-Sep: Sales & PGI (B)
First of all, I expect the Cost of goods sold for Sales & PGI (A) should be $30, and $70 for (B).
Is that correct?
However, now I have all the Sales & PGI entries created on 30-Sep,
And the posting date is controlled by the Actual GI Date in the Delivery.
And I found that both PGI value became $70!!!
Could anyone explain that to me??? Or could anyone provide me a solution to this?
Many Thanks!
Best regards,
Chris

PLease check this SAP note. I think this will solve your problem
The following example should demonstrate how such prices can come about. The main cause of the steep rise in the price is that a posting, the value of which is externally predefined, results in a stock quantity which is close to zero. Furthermore, goods receipts exist which are valuated with the current moving average price since no external amount is specified.
Example:
Overview:
                                  Quantity        Value    MAP
(1) Initial stock:                0 items        0.00 $   200.00 $
(2) GR for 1st purchase order: +1500 items +300,000.00 $
    Stock after (2)            1500 items 300,000.00 $   200.00 $
(3) GR for 2nd purchase order: +1500 items +330,000.00 $
    Stock after (3)            3000 items 630,000.00 $   210.00 $
(4) GI for the delivery:       -2849 items -598,290.00 $
    Stock after (4)              151 items   31,710.00 $   210.00 $
(5) Reversl of 150 itms from (1)-150 items -30,000.00 $
    Stock after (5)                1 item    1,710.00 $1,710.00 $
(6) Inventory difference        +150 items +256,500.00 $
    Stock after (6)              151 items +258,210.00 $ 1,710.00 $
(7) Reversl of 150 itms from (1)-150 items -30,000.00 $
    Stock after (7)                1 item +228,210.00 $ 228,210.00 $
Detail:
1. In the following, say for material X price control 'V', the moving average price is 200.00 $ and the current entire valuated stock is 0 items.
Assume you have a purchase order of 1500 items at 200.00 $ each. Moreover, 10 partial goods receipts are now posted for each of 150 items for this purchase order, so that material X then has a total stock of 1500 items with a value of 300,000.00 $.
2. Another purchase order now exists of 1500 items at 220.00 $ each. Here also, 10 partial goods receipts are posted for each of 150 items goods receipt. As a consequence, material X now has a total stock of 3000 items with a value of 630,000.00 $. The moving average price is thus 210.00 $.
3. Now let's look at a delivery of 2849 items. This is valuated as follows using the logic of the quantity to be posted * total value / total stock. This leads to a total stock of 150 items with a value of 31,710.00 $. This does not affect the moving average price, and thus remains 210.00 $ also after the posting.
Now consider the following postings:
4. You reverse the first goods receipt under 1. This reversal would valuate the goods receipt of 150 items with a value of 30,000.00 $. As a result Material X after posting has a total stock of 1 item with a value of 1,710.00 $. The moving average price would thus already be 1,710.00 $.
5. There is now an inventory difference of 150 items without entering an external amount. This posting is valuated with the moving average price and leads to a stock quantity of 151 items with a stock value of 258,210.00 $.
6. You now enter another reversal for one of the partial goods receipts cited under 1. This then is valuated again with a price of 200.00 $. This results in the material having a stock of 1 item with a value of 228,210.00 $.
If you now repeat transactions/events 6 and 7, you can imagine that the moving average price grows rather quickly.
Solution
This effect is both from a business and accounting point of view the logical result if there are a lot of goods receipts which have to be valuated with the moving average price and goods issues which in contrast to this are posted with an externally predefined amount.
You can determine tolerance limits for the moving average price variances in Customizing (Transaction: OMC0). Further information can also be found in the R3 guide: MM - Invoice verification and material valuation.

No COPA document for Cost of Goods Sold

I am using both account-based and costing-based COPA. All transactions from SD billing and FI are posted to COPA. However, document type WL (goods issue/delivery) does not create a profitability analysis document even if the profitability segment in the accounting document is filled up with values for the goods issued.
I have also assigned condition type VPRS as a value field in KE41.
What should I do to post the cost of goods sold to COPA?
Thanks,
Agnes

Hello Agnes,
As far as Account-based goes, you do not need value fields, as account-based uses GL accounts to post in CO-PA. So, there is no need to do mapping in KEI2.
KE4I and KEI2 should not have the same mapping.
It is important to keep in mind that Cost-based uses value fileds, and that COGS gets posted at time of billing (whereas FI gets the COGS at time of Goods Issue).
In Account-based, GL accounts are being used, and COGS is posted in both FI and CO-PA at the same time, that is at Goods Issue.
Hoping this helps!

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.

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
http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/erp/index.epx
there are lots of brochures /white papers link are available on this page which will give you fair amount of idea about this..

KE24 line item report is showing a future price in the costs of goods sold field. Can this report be configured to show the actual costs of goods sold from the relevant accounting document.
thanks

Thanks Mr Ajay for understanding my question.
As I told mentioned in my initial question that I have created the GL:500000 (COGS) when CRM/SD issues the stock for delivery.
What my FI done is that the same GL (500000) is assigned both in GBB-VAX and GBB-VAY as per the client requirement.
Now suggest me as how to come out from this situation?
If I need to do Validation ,request you to give your guidance as how to do it as I never done.
Thnaks in advance.

Account Based COPA Cost of goods sold and Revenue Split

Dear Experts,
We are using account based copa in a automobile company.
As per the requirement when a car is sold, depending on the customer request the car goes for a conversion. like adding Radio, Seat cover, etc
As per our setup we have different profit centers for vehicle and Parts(radio, seat cover etc) and in this case radio, seat cover, etc are the classes of the material vehicle(not separate material).
After the vehicle conversion there is a sales order raised which goes to profit center derived from vehicle material master.
As per the reporting requirement I need to spit the Cost of good sold and revenue by vehicle profit center and parts profit center for COPA reporting purpose
Is there any way to do this in standard SAP? Or I need an exit?
Appreciate your response and please let me know in case of any clarification.
Many thanks
Roy
