Product costing with components purchased in countries with high inflation

Hi guru,
I have the following problem. My company produced in Italy but buy some component from India, that is a country with high inflation.
When I run the product costing for a finished product in Italy, in which way I can consider the high inflation in India? My doubt is that I can have a wrong product costing because the value of component is not correct
Thanks
Regards
Raffaele

Hi
Product costing allows recursive BOM with certain restrictions. Kindly check the following link for more information on recursiveness:

JList of components you can interact with

Does anyone know how to populate a JList component with components you can interact with? The renderer you create to render the elements just uses the component paint method to paint the component but you can't click on it etc. e.g. if you have a JList of buttons when you click on the buttons they do not get pressed. Does anyone know how to get a JList of components that respond as if they were on say a JPanel?

Advice product costing implementation

hi guys
my client business is mfg of electro steel,
product costing process 1 purchase of Raw material to Semi finished goods -- follow make to stock
calculate WIP1
in 1st product process is make one stell rod , once comple the process calculate WIP 1
2 from semifinished goods to Finished goods -- follow make to order
calculat WIP 2
in 2nd product process is already steel rod is available some changes base on customer requirement base on make to order,
my qns is how many cost sheets r required,
how many costing variants maintained-
how may costing types and valuation variants r required.
material value calculation is base on moving average price followed
have any documents pls forward to me
pls give suggestion
pls give ur contact no

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

MESSAGE ERROR: WIP a target cost only possible with Product Cost by Period

I work with orders assign to WBS Element (Non-valuated stock).
If I enter confirmation to an order created, and then execute KKAX transaction to calculate WIP, the system shows this error message u201Cu2018WIP a target cost only possible with Product Cost by Periodu2019u201D, but actually the result has been calculated ok.
If WIP is executed collectively KKAO the error message is the same but the result is not calculated
Everything suggests that what we want is possible, but the error doesnu2019t disappear
Does anyone know what could be reason for the error?
Thanks

Hi
Check your RA key and WIP customizing... WIP at target cost is possible only in Product cost by period
Check your settlement rule in Prod Order.. I guess it would be FUL and not PER.. FUL settlement means you are in product cost by order.. There seems to be a mismatch between your settlement type (FUL/PER) and WIP config
Moreover, if your stock is non valuated, do you at all need to calculate WIP for prod orders? I dont think so

Stagebox camera converter and Typhoon Ingest Card lower broadcast video production costs with Ethernet

The broadcast video market is in a transition period between the use of proprietary broadcast-specific networks and Ethernet. The proprietary broadcast video network protocols came into existence because, at the time, Ethernet speeds and standards were not up to the demands of live video production. Now they are. Ethernet-based broadcast networks promise to reduce video production costs by allowing the use of standard Ethernet cabling and switches to ship video from multiple cameras at an event to the production and editing suite. But there’s plenty of equipment already in the field that uses the older broadcast video network standards. Two new products developed by Xilinx Premier Alliance Member CoreEL in conjunction with BBC R&D can adapt existing broadcast equipment to Ethernet networks specifically for venues such as small- and medium-scale sporting events and multi-location live events (like elections).

I haven't the faintest idea. I only use DV, HDV and XDCAM-EX/HD and have never tried it with any (RED) 4K material. I assume it should be sufficient to handle that. But let's be honest, when I increased my raid array from 10 to 12 disks, I did not notice ANY performance gains. The limiting factor must be the PCI-e bus or the Areca controller, that just does not show any improvements from adding a couple of disks. Another thing to consider is that the various benchmark programs widely in use show quite different results.
As an example, here are two images from HD Tune Pro, one for my 2 disk raid0 on the Marvell chip and the other from my 12 disk raid30 array. First of all, HD Tune shows the wrong size, it is not 2199 GB but should be 10000 GB (at least that is what Areca claims as shown in the last picture), second it ONLY performs at around 745 MB/s transfer rate.
The most noteworthy item to look at is the rapid performance degradation of this raid0 when the disks get fuller. An average transfer rate of 165 MB/s is quite acceptable for a 2 disk setup, but seeing it go down to below 100 MB/s when the disks fill up is bothersome. It will not allow you to handle uncompressed HD at all.

Production order with components consumed from vendor consignment stock

Hi expert,
I have a production order with components and some of the components should be consumed from vendor consignment stock.
When the order is created/released : is there a possibility to have those components created with "special stock indicator" = 3 (consignement stock) by default?
Thanks,
P.

Dear Pete,
In my understanding it's not possible to populate this value as 3 - consignment stock in the component overview.This has to be
done manually.
Check in this way,by indicating a value in any of the material master field(for eg ABC indicator in MRP1 view) and if there's some
value,then while saving the system populates for all those materials with this value as 3 by using some user exit or BADI.
I'm not sure,it's only an idea,check and revert

Impleemt Product Costing with out Activity Based Cisting

Hi,
well, i am new bee in this arena.
please guide me, if product cost controlling can be implemented with out activity-based costing.
Regards
Ramakrishna Reddy

Do you want to know: "Without ABC, or without activities?"
The answer in both cases is actually yes, but the implications are slightly different.
You use activities in CO-PC to allocate production-related overheads to a product, but use ABC to implement Activity Based management, which is not limited to Production.

Problems with over/under absorption on production cost centers - GBB AUI

Hi,
I have a problem with over/under absorption on production cost centers after month end closing.
We are using material ledger CKMLCP and actual activity rates from direct cost centers are settled directly to products using GBB AUI account determination.
Unfortunately from time to time there appears a significant balance on production cost centers after running CKMLCP. What might be the reason? I have analysed line items on cost centers but cannot find any answers.
We are using assignment of cost elements to particular activity types (function splitting), and I have checked that all cost elements are assigned to proper activity types.
Best regards,
Karol

Hi,
DP90 is used for Resource related billing, is broad term basically when you performing service that time you have to raise billing on the basis of resources which you had spend for perticular service
DP90 is run on the basis of DYNAMIC ITEM PROCESSOR,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_di471/helpdata/en/59/54fc37004d0a1ee10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
I will tell you one process from the prspective of CS module
Create notification >> Create service order >> Confirm service order >> Resource releted billing (genrates sales document) >> Invoice to customer with refrance to sales document.
Now here DP90 is used to determine material,IN SALES DOCUMENT because CS module don't have billing feature as like SD Billing.
In CS module activities/Operation,but in SD module we speciefy material codes
So DIP determines XYZ activity/operation is ABC material in SD

Deleting old Product cost collectors with variances

Hi Experts
The client is wanting to archive old Product Cost Collectors. There are 3 of them that say that they have unsettled variances. I need to delete these which are in 1999 and 2001
The error message is KO451. I have tried to set this error to a warning but it is not allowing this
Please advise
Kind regards
Dawn

Hi Dawn,
you can check SAP note 140672 in which the procedure to be followed is explained
in case of KO451.
A workaround would be: You can uncheck the indicator 'Variances to
Costing-Based PA' in
settlement profile. Then you can close/archive the order.

Excise Invoice is captured with another Purchase Order

Hi
We have a scenrio, transfer the material from debond plant to mfg plant after imported material in kept in Bonding area. STO po is raised to from imported plant to mfg plant with Imported duties as delivery costs.
Bill of entry is provided for all the materials as one. While capturing the excise amount at line item level is difficult so, captured at first line item level as total because material is Same (Material is Split valuated materials with 3 batches). First GR is done properly but next GR for 2nd and 3 rd line items are refered with earlier Bill of entry, system promprts the error message "Excise Invoice is captured with another Purchase Order".
Please do the needful.
Regards
Mohan

Hi,
Please be informed that for one a GR document wrt PO only one excise invoice can exist.
Ex PO-4500000010
GR no 5000000010
only one excise can exist and if the same excise invoice is reffered to another GR with the same PO system will throw an error message. Please let me know the exact business requirement in detail.

Purchase order report with basic price and Excise duty values

Hi All,
Is there any standard report in SAP to get the Purchase order basic price / qty and its Excise duty values ? Since we are including Excise duties for non - codified items (w/o material master and with cost center 'K') Purchase order and the ed values are added to the cost and the requirement is to see the split up (Basic priceEdEcs+Hcs)for these Purchase orders for the vendors. If there is no std report then please let me know how to link Purchase order table with this Condition value table in query to get the desired report.
Thanks in advance
Benny

Hi,
there is no standert report to fullfill this requierment
you have to create this report with the help of abaer
for that which tax code you are using its importnat thing
for po table EKPO
1. A524 (Normal supply point / Material) it will return condition record number for condition type.
2. KONP (Conditions (Item)) .
3. J_1IMTCHID (Combination of Material Number and Chapter ID).
4. J_1IEXCTAX (Tax calc. - Excise tax rates
5 get the IR no. from RBKP and RSEG, and get the relevant FI doc no. and goto BSET table
for IR number to get from table apply logic for doc type RE ,you will get fi number nad in refernce field you will get invoice number + fiscal year
Map this by refernig on po for which grn and invoice happen
