Product Cost Price

I need to be able to include a cost price when setting up a product, this is so when I export orders via Custom Reports I can, using a spreadsheet, work out the profit on each line item etc.
I have tried using a custom field but these are not included in the report generator.
Is this possible in BC?
Thanks
Paul

Good thinking, but those options are not available in the Custom Report
- Customer Report. Therefore are not included in any export.
I need to export:
Invoice No, Product, Cost Price, Sale Price, Total Price.
I can export everything but the cost price as their is no field to enter it.

Product Costing using Moving Average Price of FERT & HALB

Dear Experts,
My client wants to use Product Costing functionality by using Moving Average Price instead of Standard Price on Finished Goods & Semi Finished Goods and as per my understanding, SAP recommends to use Standard Price on FERT & HALB.
I know if we use moving average price instead of standard price than there will be no concept of variances. Can anyone tell me more about what are the pros and cons of using moving average price instead of standard price in Product Costing?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Zain Bashir

Hi Zain
Let's take an example
You have V for Mat A
You create 3 Prod orders in a month
Order 1 - Qty 10 - variance 100
Same for Order 2 and 3..
At month end, you sold 20 pieces and 10 is in stock..
When you settle order 1, system will compare order qty and stock.. It will match I.e. 10 = 10... Hence variance of 100 will be posted on stock
Same will happen for Order 2 and 3... Ideally, only 100 should have posted on stock... but in this case 300 of variance will be posted on stock...
This is what the note mentioned by Arturo tells, but not so clearly
Hope this helps

Actual Cost of Product with Price control "S"

Dear Gurus,
Is there any report available where we can know the Actual Costs of Materials with Price Control "S".
In the material master field the actual cost in the "Moving Price Tab" of the material with Price Control "S" is available, but is there any report available for plant level?
Thanks & Regards,
Amit Dhanurdhari.

Hi Amit,
-- Under Standard Costing, you value your inventory at Standard Costs and any variances in Production Process will be settled to Price Difference Account. You will not be able to find out actual cost per unit. In Multi-level BOM scenario under Standard Costing (CO-PC), variances don't get rolled-up to the next level, only costs get rolled-up.
-- Under Actual Costing - Material Ledger, You will be able to find out the Actual Cost per Unit. Variances get rolled-up to the next level.
To explain difference between Standard Costing in CO-PC and Material Ledger briefly....
You have given Price Indicator as "S" in the material master of "X" material (semi finisher or finished) and you are doing Standard Cost Estimate for arriving at Standard Cost per tonne. Let's say, the Standard Cost per tonne is Rs.1000/-
Now, when you created production order for 10 tonnes and received output of 10 tonnes (GR). But the total cost incurred on that production order is Rs.1100/-. In this situation, actual cost per tonne is Rs.110.
But, because you are following Standard Costing, When you post GR against this Production Order, inventory will be posted at Standard cost only, i.e., Rs.1000/-. and the balance of Rs.100 will be posted to Price Difference Account. (and parallally the variance of Rs.100/-) will flow to COPA.
So, it is clear that, though, at Production Order level you can see the actual cost, at "material" level, you will not be able to see the actual cost per tonne.(as long as you are using only Product Costing and Standard Costing)
Alternatively, if you maintain Price Indicator as "V", you will able to get the Actual Cost per tonne at material level, but there will be no scope for establishing standard cost and comparison with actual thereof.
But, the same is possible if you are using Material Ledger (CO-ML). If Material Ledger is active, you will be maintaining "S" in the material master, still, the variances will be settled inventory and you will be able to get the actual cost per tonne. (bothe Standard cost estimate, actual cost per tonne will be possible).
Pls revert back for further explanation

Transfer price (Internal Reveue to be allocated to Production cost Center)

Hi Sap Gurus.
My cleint using tranfer price without activiation material Ledger. The internal revenue should not reflect in Fi. For that we have created ztable and we will be able to transfer the stock between profit center and we are getting internal reveue to the sending profit sender and expenses to the receiving profit center finaally balance become a zero,(we are maintaing same gl account while doing transfer price). Now expense in receving profit center should consider as part of produt costing. how to allocate this expense to the production cost center when there is no balance.
Example
SENDING PLANT 1 MATERIAL 123456 MM PRICE (10) TP 15
RECEIVNING Plant 2 Material 123456 MM PRICE (10) TP 15
While taking STO system is posting with material master price 10, but in the production if they are using that material system should take 5 also . 10 is the cost and 5 is overhead.
help me out?

These are some few things I found out. Below is the result of a test I carried out when I tried to create a Settlement Rule for a statistical order.
Statistical order may not contain a settlement rule
Message no. KO188
Diagnosis
Order 12770, for which you are trying to create a settlement rule, is statistical.
System Response
Statistical orders cannot have a settlement rule because they cannot be settled.
Procedure
You could possibly remove the statistics indicator from the order (only if nothing has been posted to it yet).
I may be wrong but I have determined that, for production orders, you will have to use Standard Production Order Type and not a statistical order. The object class has to be production as well.
You will only be able to create a settlement rule if it is not a statistical order with the assignment category as ORD. Also, in your order type: Internal Order - Production, under general parameters, you will have to assign settlement profile 30 which is production order.
You may have to define planning profiles for co production orders, costing variant, valuation types. Maintain order types using KOT2. Example:
Order Type: PP01 Standard Production Order
Order Category: 10 PP Production Order
Number Range Interval: 1000000000--19999999999
Settlement Profile: abc
CO Partner Update: Semi-Active
Check of Classification
Next Maintain Settlement Profile: ABC Standard Production Order
Check off "To be Settled in Full
Default Allocation Structure: E.G: EB
Indicators: check off: 100% Validation. % settlement, equivalent numbers
Valid Receivers: 1 for most
Document Type: OS Order Settlement
Create Allocation etc.
Hope this gives you some pointers as to how to proceed.

Production costs for material with price control V

Dear all,
Can anyone pls tell me, how will the costing occur for a material produced in-house and having price control 'V' ? I am not able to see the target costs.
Also kindly tell me the settings to be done in CO, like target cost version, valuation variant, costing variant, etc.
Thank you,
Shrenik

Rather than giving my own versions I have compiled here SAP inputs. Pl let me know if you require any clarifications:
Costing variant has the following components:
<b>Define Costing Types
Define Valuation Variants
Define Date Control
Define Quantity Structure Control
Define Transfer Strategy
Define Reference Variants</b>
<u>Costing type:</u>
In the costing type, you define the purpose of a material cost estimate by specifying, for example, which field in the material master record the costing results can be transferred to:
Update Cost Estimate
Standard price Standard cost estimate (01)
Tax-based price Inventory cost estimate
Commercial price Inventory cost estimate
Price other than std price Modified standard cost estimate or
current cost estimate
No update Any cost estimate
Define Valuation Variants:
Define Valuation Variants
Here you create a valuation variant containing the parameters required for valuation of a cost estimate.
You also specify which costing sheet should be used to calculate overhead.
Valuation Strategies
Material valuation
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices from the accounting view or costing view of the material master record to valuate materials. You can also access prices from purchasing info records and condition types.
For material cost estimates, you also specify whether additive costs can be added to the selected price.
With configurable/configured material components and with procurement alternatives, the sequence defined here is ignored if the strategy "price from purchasing info record" was selected, in which case that strategy is always executed first. For more information, refer to the SAP Library in the component Product Cost Planning under Raw Material Costing or Mixed Costing.
Activity Types / Processes
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in activity type planning or actual activity price calculation in Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to valuate the utilized activity types and business processes.
You also specify which plan/actual version is used.
Subcontracting
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record. In purchasing, quota arrangements are used to create a mixed price for materials that are manufactured with external vendors with parts provided by the customer. You can specify whether the quota of the individual vendors that are entered in the source list for the material to be processed should be determined through the planned quota arrangement or the actual quota arrangement.
External processing
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record or routing operation for valuation of the external activities.
Strategy Sequence
You define the individual valuation methods for the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of the material components you define a strategy sequence that reads the fields of the material master record in a particular sequence such as:
1. Planned price 1
2. Standard price
3. Moving price
The first price that is not zero is used to valuate the material component.
Target versions:
Target cost versions are used in the following ways:
In variance calculation:
To control which variance (total variance, production variances or planning variance) is calculated
To valuate unplanned scrap( scrap variance)
Unplanned scrap is valuated in the period-end closing activities when the variances are calculated. You can specify in a valuation variant for WIP and scrap which cost estimate you want to use to calculate the target costs for the valuation of unplanned scrap. You assign the valuation variant to target cost version 0 if you want to include it in the valuation of scrap.
When you are using a cost object hierarchy with active distribution, you use the target cost version to control which cost estimate the system uses to calculate the target costs, which are used as the basis for determining equivalences for actual cost distribution.
The actual costs collected at the level of the hierarchy are distributed across the orders in accordance with these equivalences. This distribution is proportional to the target costs for the cost element under which the actual costs are written. Actual costs for material costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for the origin group, such as for the material, if you have entered an origin group in the costing view of the material master record and have set the indicator Material origin, for example.
If no target costs were calculated under this cost element, enter a cost element group in the target cost version. The actual costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for this cost element group. This cost element group should be complete. If costs were updated under a cost element that is not in this cost element group, no distribution is possible.
You can calculate equivalences on the basis of SAP standard target cost versions 0, 1 and 3.
The standard system supplies the following target cost versions:
Target cost version 0 ( total variance)
The amount of the total variance generates a posting in Financial Accounting during settlement.
For this version, select actual costs as the control costs and standard cost estimate as the target costs.
Target cost version 1 ( production variance)
For this version you choose actual costs as the control costs and planned costs as the target costs.
Target cost version 2( planning variance)
With target cost version 2, the costs from the preliminary order cost estimate are interpreted as control costs.
For this version, select planned costs as the control costs and current cost estimate as the target costs. You cannot calculate planning variances for the product cost collector.
Target cost version 3 (production variance of the period)
You compare the planned costs of the period calculated on the basis of an alternative material cost estimate (such as a modified standard cost estimate) with the actual costs of the period on the basis of the yield delivered to stock in the period.
The base quantity for variance calculation is the yield.
For this version, you choose the actual costs as the control costs and the alternative material cost estimate as the target costs. To determine the alternative material cost estimate, enter a costing variant and choose a costing version.
The target cost version specifies which data is to be compared. The target cost version also specifies which variance variant is used and therefore which variance catagories are calculated. You can define a different target cost version for each controlling area

Standar cost and product cost collector not updating the new price

Hi,
Created Standard cost estimate for one FG product and runned the product cost collector. Based on that consumption delivery everthing is made. Later on the work center and activity type changed in routing. Now i am trying to run the standard cost with new activity price (due to work center change) for the current period, system is showing only the previous rate(previous period) and it is not updating the new price becuase of already we have created the product cost collector.
Can any one give the suggestion for how to update the new price in standard cost as well as new price updation in product cost collector.
govind.

Hi
1. If the original cost estimate was run in the current month - Then you cant re-release cost estimate unless you reverse it from CKR1
If the cost estimate was of previous months - then you can definetely release it again
2. In cost collector, you need to manually cost it again using the Preliminary costing feature... Your cost coll will then show 2 cost estimates i.e. One from Original date to current date-1, and 2nd from Current date to 31.12.9999

Product Cost under Moving Average Price

Hi Sapians,
Please guide me how to configure Product Costing & the users steps to test the same. Here client wants to work in Moving Average Price.
Regards,
Vikas

Hello Viki,
This question can not be answered in this forum simply because its not issue based and we can't help you with each step. Yes product costing can be done using moving average price and you can do so in the Valuation and Account Assignment section in materials management. However, moving average is not a recommended approach for internally manufactured goods and it may result in allocation of the previous period's variance on the valuation of the products in the next period. You can find more on this on SAP Library and you can download the SAP's best practices configuration guides from the SAP website for help on configuring.

Product Costing standard price

Dear Experts,
I am new to costing. I have done costing it s working fine. But the costing price hit in future price instead of hit in standard price.
And how can we diffreciate Planned and Actual price in material master or costing level.
Thanks & Regards,
Venkat.

Hello Venkat,
If the costed standard price is getting updated to other field than Standard price, you configuration setting for costing type will be wrong.
check with costing type is linked to your costing variant through T-code OKKN
Then go to costing type T-code OKKI, check which field is given for price update. It should be " Standard price"
Let me know if this helps
thanks

Activity Output prices/Product Costing

Hi Guys-
We have created-Machine Hours as activity type.But while doing KP26-how do arrive at unit cost/price of this activity type.ie-on what basis will this activity be costed?
Thx

Hi SR,
Let's go to the basics of Costing.
What is Machine Hours? Why have you created it?
Machin Hour Activity is created for measuring the cost incurred for running the particular Machine. As you must be knowing, each activity (Labour , Machin Activity) involves some cost for the organisation.
In case of the Machin Hr, the cost may be depreciation , consumables , cutting oil, electricity consumption required etc. You can add many more depending on the client requirement. Discuss with the team members also. They can give you info as per their requirement.
The total of the above cost for the company divided by the total machine hours consumed will give you the Machine Hour Cost.
Hope this helps you to understand the concept.
Regards,
Gov

Product Costing - Message CK 318 ()

Hi Experts,
While executing product cost calculation for material YYY we had warning message CK318 - Cost estimate for material XXX contains errors -> Planned price). XXX is a component used in YYY and the message was issued because we did not have price for XXX. We are now able to proceed with standard cost release for YYY.
As I remembered previously, if you have an error in lower level, the higher level material would have been costed with error too. Seems that this is no longer the case.
I am not sure if this has changed in standard system in ECC 6 or we have to change message control for this message from Warning (W) to Error (E) but it seems the system reaction is not logical to me.
Thanks for shedding insights into this.
Teck

HI Teck,
Can you go to OKKN, and quantity structure tab and check out the 'transfer active std cost meates if material costed with errors check box?

sir, i know manufacturing order configuration step but i do not sales order configuration.
in the sales order also is same as manufacturing order like first we have to make planning cost , the planning cost should be updated to material master and next configure the actual cost.
for first step- costing variant -okkn
next -costing variant -opl1
for sales order also same we need to update planning price first- what is costing variant
for actual cost - what is costing variant

Please help me how to fix above problem.
Thank you.

Check following points,
Probably material might be split valuated,Check price is maintained for all valuation types including header in MM60.
Check price is maintained in info record.
Check type of procurement in MRP2,it will be external procurement - F.
Do product cost estimate using KKF6N.
Check production version is maintained in MRP4 ?
Check throughly all masters vendor,info record & material master.
It will solve the issue.

Product costing Cycle run for first time to complete backlog

Dear sir,
In my Company we went live in April 2011 and since then we never did settlement of Product costing as process was not stream line , but now (in Aug-2011) it is stream-line and we wanted to do Proper costing Cycle run & settlement too.
Can you please let me know that how to proceed further, what precautions must be taken and whether we have to do settlement for April till July or directly we can go for settlement of last month July-2011.
Please let me know detailed steps,
Thanks & Regards,
Ashutosh

Hi,
Settlement will be done on period basis in you're case June month is closed and now open periods are July and august.
so the production orders can be settled collectively in CO88 for July month.
and for costing run i.e standard cost estimate you need correct BOM and Routing.
after doing settlement of production orders do costing run.
it's not mandatory that settlement should be done. even you can run the costing with out settlement.
costing run will consider the raw material prices ,activity prices sub-contracting price etc..
after considering the above prices after releasing the costing run it will update the actual price in the material master of the header material.
for indual material=CK11N and CK24
Collectively=CK40N
For the materials with Price indicator V(header materials) settlement is important here no cost estimate.
settlement of production order will leads to change the price in the material master. so here no Standard cost estimate..only settlement.
revert me if any issue
Regards,
Ravi

Automation for actual input of utility rate in Production Cost centers

Dear All,
Currently we have a process where we are downloading actual rates through KSII for each location and rates calculated are inputed through KBK6 for all individual production cost centers by activities ,so my requirement is whether there is any procedure where downloading and uploading can be eliminated and actual rates calculated by system directly loads on to the production cost centers.
Kindly provide any suggestions
Thanks and Regards
vijay

Hi,
If u run KSII, system will give a message "Do you want to post the results of price calculation?" if u click on YES , it will automatically update in your KBK6. Pl. Check once.
