Service Product Cost & Profitability
Dear Experts,
I am having the following situation.
1) My Service product is relevant for cost but not for CATS entry.
2) Can I maintain a standard cost related to a service product?
I evaluated the option of replicating the service product to R/3 and then maintain an activity corresponding to a service product. This activity will have a cost attached.
But when the service order is saved , it creates an internal order in R/3 but this internal order does not have any information about the service product.
How do I post the revenue and cost for my service order?
Regards,
AmbarishDear Kandan,
1.Product Cost Collector is one of the master data in REM.
2.After material master,BOM,Rate routing,Production versions are created for the HALB & FERT item's,then the next step will be
product cost collector creation using KKF6N.
3.The controlling level for product cost collector will be Production version.
4.For each Production version an individual Product Cost Collector can be created.
5.Without a product cost collector you cannot carryout backflushing for an Inhouse manufactured items.
6.After backflushing,all the cost for producing the product will be saved(getting accumulated) in this product cost collector.
I hope this will clear all your doubts.

Business Content for Product Cost Collector analysis - KKBC_PKO
Hello,
I have a user requirement to setup a report that matches the KKBC_PKO report in ECC.
Is there any business content that can help me do that?
Many thanks,
ClaudioHi,
I guess you shoud check out one of the 0CO_PC_* datasources. Check also the business content for applicaten controlling->product cost controlling. [BCT|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/37/dc143c65b8b800e10000000a114084/frameset.htm]

Product Costing Periodic Analysis
Hi,
When we run "KKBC_HOE - With Defined Summarization Hierarchy" for a particular period, does SAP take into account only the postings made in that period.
There could be open production orders from previous periods carried over to the period under analysis. How does SAP handle those? Will SAP eliminate the postings made to such production orders in previous periods?
Similary, How does SAP calculate plan costs (both material & activity costs) for the period in analysis.
Thanks,
RamHi Kaarthik,
Thanks for your reply. Still, there is some doubt in the way SAP calculates. I not able to simulate what you suggested as it is not month beginning.
For instance let us say that a production order started in period 1, the planned costs are material-$1000, labor activity-$500. At the end of period 1, the actual costs posted to the order were material-$500, labor $100.
So, when I run the report at the beginning of period 2, (only for this period-not cumulative), what will be the planned costs for this order.
Thanks,

Product cost or Product unit cost
Hi,
Does anyone know if there is any standard content for product cost or Product unit cost? Please let me know. I don't know under which area this belongs to ie SD, MM....etc.
thanks
Sabrina.Hi Sabrina,
You can evaluate CO-PC datasources in your R/3 system and the corresponding sources, objects etc. in BC.
Also you may look at Product Cost Controlling Analyses at BI best practice:

CAPTURING OF COST IN PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS FOR BY PRODUCT
Dear Team,
We had a requirement when standard material cost estimate is executed we can get the standard price for main material as well as by product for which values are flowing to COPA (T.code KE30).
The scenario works fine for Main Product, since the actuals as well as Costs are flowing to COPA. Where as only actuals are posting to byproduct as there are no separate cost estimate for Byproduct.
So only acutals are caputured to Profitability analysis.
At present we are manually changing the price of the byproduct material through MR21 which is constant through out the period.
Our requirement:- Since Byproduct doesnt have any separate BOM and Routing, Is it possible to capture this byproducts price to COPA.
or
capturing of COGS for this byproducts price is also ok.
Please anybody can guide me.
Thanks & regards,
SandeepDear Santosh,
Thanks for your early reply.
It might work, Please elaborate.
Request you to send any document if you have any, since i am new in CO.
it was availbale in my user profile.
Thanks & regards,

Costs of the product calculation lack in the profitability analysis
Hello there,
A group of students and I are currently working on a SAP project which is about to implement a full cost accounting in the SAP system (ERP). At first we used a case study reading (Friedl,Hilz,Pedell), some important components for calculating the products like u201Ccosting sheetu201D, u201Ccost component structureu201D and u201Ccosting variantu201D do exist already.
For our project we had to insert an additional primary cost center. For that reason we also added new components (the above given ones). After that the costs for our products could be calculated in the right way. We also booked supplies and stated the quantity of sales. Our problem is that the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) does not show any costs of our cost centers (material input, manufacturing costs, overhead costs) only the earnings. We did not add any u201Cattributesu201D, u201Cderivation rulesu201D or u201Cvalue fieldsu201D but fulfilled all requirements in the Customizing menu (u201CAssign costing key to productu201D, u201CAssign costing key to productu201D, u201CAssign value fields for cost component structureu201D).
The first time when we used the case study reading and therefore another company code everything worked fine. We think that the problem might be that the costing key is not attached to the products.
Thank you for any help and suggestions,
Kind regards!In the same area as where you assign the costing key to the product, there is also an entry where you need to define the costing key. You don'tr mention that you have done that.
In the user menu for Profitability Analysis, there are also a lot of tcodes that will help you investigate the flows of values and derivation of characteristics. They are very helpful in most cases. -

Profitable analysis and cost accounting doc
hi,
May i know why some of billing in vf03 only have cost accounting doc whereas some have both profitable analysis and cost accounting doc in document category when click accounting button.
thanksHi,
Please check the Sales Condition Types assigned to Value fields. May be some of your condition types are assigned to Value fields and some of are not. Go to KE4I.
Also check the PA Transfer Strcuture in KEI2, Whether relevant Cost Elements are assigned to Value Fields or not.

What is BOM? Steps Needed. How is it Related to Product Costing
Gurus,
What is BOM?
How is it related to Product Costing and Profitability Analysis and CO?
Technical help and steps would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Points available.Hi,
BOM (Bill of Material) is a structured list of components (with the object number, quantity and unit of measure) that go into making of a product or an assembly.
Bill of Material can be simple or complex depending upon the structure of the product. And, a collection of BOMs that lets you describe a product or a number of similar products is known as BOM Group.
T code is CK51.
In product costing BOM is used to estimate the cost incurred for the creation of a finished product.
Technically, when u do a product cost run for particular material and if you don't have BOM for the material, the system will give an error.
If useful, assign points.

Product cost by sales order - conceptual clarity required
Hi,
We are a manufacturing company with both Make to Stock and Make to Order Scenarios. In cost object controlling, we have made the settings for product cost by order. Now, the question is whether product cost by sales order is a mandatory setting in MTO scenario. I understand this is a conceptual question but i never got the clarity after reading help files, threads and blogs.
I'll put down my understanding - pls correct me.
If i do the product cost by sales order, there will be a statistical cost object ie sales order. Now every cost incurred (with a component split) will be recorded stastically in the sales order in case of production orders created from S.O.s
If I don't do the setting i cannot get a component wise split for the cost of sales order to do any analyses. but still I'll have the COGS which i'll capture to COPA and take the profitability.
Can you please give me some more clarity on this scenario? Are there any other factors/ advantages/mandates in product cost by sales order?
Best Regards
VimalHi Vimal
Prod Cost by SO is done in the case of MTO.. Here, you have 3 possible scenarios
A. Only Qty i.e. GR from Prod order is tagged to Sales Order.. Sales order is not a CO Object....
This scenario is as good as MTS... Only that GR is tagged to SO....
Your costs are collected on Prod order....
PGI uses GBB-VAX i.e. does not post to sales order... Billing updates revenue and COGS to costing based COPA
B. SO is cost obj with non valuated stock (SAP recommends this)
C. SO is cost obj with valuated stock...
B -
Prod Order is settled upon sales order.. GR from prod order does not update any acc doc
Sales order is settled to COPA.. Here you can use a PA Trf Str where in you have replicated your Cost Comp Str... i.e. You can create as many assignment lines in KEI1 as your CCS in OKTZ and assign each one of them to a separtae value field
No question of variances in this case
C
Prod order is not settled upon sales order.... GR from Prod order updates acc doc.... However, variance from prod order can be settled to the sales order if you create variance account as a cost element... Else, it is settled to COPA
Upon PGI, the COGS is posted to Sales Order as a single line item
Here, in your PA Trf Str, you would create an Assignment line and tick "Qty Billed/Delivered".... This would update the Billing Qty to COPA upon settlement of Sales order
This Qty update will trigger KE4R.... i.e. You need to assign CCS to VF in KE4R for PV=01 and Rec Type = C.... This would update the CCS in COPA as per the Sales Order cost estimate
The Costing Key in KE40 should refer to "Sales order cost estimate" and not "Std Cost estimate"

How to Calculate Profitability Analysis ?
Hi
kishore
This is basically a part of Sales and Distribution Module . can u just revert me back with the Answer .
Regards
kishoreDear kishore
Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) enables you to evaluate market segments, which can be classified according to products, customers, orders or any combination of these, or strategic business units, such as sales organizations or business areas, with respect to your company's profit or contribution margin.
The aim of the system is to provide your sales, marketing, product management and corporate planning departments with information to support internal accounting and decision-making.
Two forms of Profitability Analysis are supported: costing-based and account-based.
Costing-based Profitability Analysis is the form of profitability analysis that groups costs and revenues according to value fields and costing-based valuation approaches, both of which you can define yourself. It guarantees you access at all times to a complete, short-term profitability report.
Account-based Profitability Analysis is a form of profitability analysis organized in accounts and using an account-based valuation approach. The distinguishing characteristic of this form is its use of cost and revenue elements. It provides you with a profitability report that is permanently reconciled with financial accounting.
Thanks

Regarding CO Product wise profitability
hi,
Actually can anybody tell me in CO , system provides us report for productwise profitability, Is it calculate on moving price of product, because we have one requriement where client asking for batch wise/product profitability(not using av, moving price)
Can anybody help me out for this,
Thankshi
yes u will get productwise profitabilty statement in Costing based CO-PA. u can use either moving average or standarad price or u can define ur own costing varinat for calculating material prices only for the purpose of profitability analysis.
