Production cost in SAP
Hi,
i have calculated the standard price of product in SAP. but at the end my production cost seems very high and i don't understand why
this is what i did:
first i upload the budget in the system in KP06 for the full year
i upload the quantities of activities in KP26 for the full year also
then i run the assessment cycle to bring the budget at the level of the "production cost center"
then i splitted the budget per activity in KSS4, to get the budget of each activity/cost center.
i calculated the price of activities in KSPI.
then i run CK40N, to calculate the standard price of the different product.
but my problem is that:
why when i make the sum of all the production cost for all the product, i don't find again the initial budget i put in the system?
thanks for your comments
Hi SAPXPT,
Try transaction RKACSHOW, see note 28145. RKACSHOW shows all the tables that are updated on an order.

Product Costing in SAP Retail Solution
Hi experts
I have a question about product costing in SAP Retail (SAP ECC 6.0).
In material master data (Tr. MM43 - Tr. MM42) Product Costing view for Logistics:CD sheet is activated.
Although, for Logistics:Store sheet is not activated.
In customizing, we have tried to activate the Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet, but there no standard dynpro to use it. So, we have some doubts:
- Do we have to create customer (Z) dynpros in order to activate Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet?
- Does SAP allows Product Costing functionality in SAP Retail solution?
If both answers are YES, i have another doubt:
- In our business scenario, the store is supplied by the Distribution Center. So, does it make sense to run product costing for
a articles in a Store?
We think it makes sense to apply product costing functionality in Distribution center. In order to analyze deviations from
Standard costs to real costs. But we are not sure about Stores.
Does anyone have experience in customizing product costing functionality for a SAP retail in a Logistics:Store?
Thank you for your time

Product hierarchy in R3 is termed as Merchandise category hierarchy in SAP IS retail
But in R3 Product hierarchy is not used much but Merchandise category hierarchy that is termed as MCH is a basic thing reqd for defining master data that is article master data which is nothing but material master in R3
As i said Product hierarchy levels are available in R3 also but not much used
Merchandise category hierarchy levels is most commonly used in SAP IS retail
What we call material group in R3 is same as Merchandise category in SAP IS retail and material in R3 is article in Retail
Merchandise category hierarchy levels
Say a Retail mall has merchandise items
Under merchandise there are 2 divisions Food and non food
Under nonfood say there are 2 divisions say hardware and apparel
Under apparel there 2 divisions say Mens wear and ladies wear
Under mens wear you have t shirts,shirts and pants etc
Here t shirts,shirts and pants etc are individual articles
Menswear and ladies wear are material groups
Hardware and apparel are merchandise hierarchy level 1
Food and non food merchandise hierarchy level 2
Retail mall is merchandise hierarchy level 3
like that hierarchy levels are commonly defined and used as a must to have efficient master data in SAP retail and the maximum no of hierarchy to have ideally is 6 apart from Merchandise category
In our example we have defined three levels
The same functionality can be used as product hierarchy in R3 also but doesnt been put in to use much
In Retail the no of articles a store is going to manage to be will be huge hence this sort of seggregation is needed there must
For more clarity try to post this in retail forum(Trading industries)

Co-Product and By-Product Costing in SAP PP Scenario
Frds,
Somebody can tell me, settings/enhancement in PP for Co-Product and By-product Costing along with Header Material?
ThanxYou have posted in a wrong forum. This should have been posted in PP forum

Dear Gurus ,
can someone provide me the list of CO Product Costing related SAP TABLES please . Full points will be assigned .
Regards
DeepeshDeepesh,
There are many tables / structures used in product costing by SAP. The primary being:
KEKO - Product Costing - Header Data
KEPH - Product Costing: Cost Components for Cost of Goods Mfd
Between these, you should be able to find cost component values for all your materials.
However, if you are looking at customizing tables, look at TCK*.
There are still more tables out there - e.g., for costing run (KAL*), for material ledger, for unit costing (CKIS, CKIP, CKKS). Have fun exploring.
Remember to assign points if found useful.

SETTING DELETION FLAG FOR PRODUCT COST COLECTOR:
Hi Gurus, could you please help me with this question:
We need to turn off the repetitive mfg
indicator active for a group of materials. this in order to replace product collectors to production
orders.
When I tryed to set the deletion flag for product cost colectors, SAP
Shows this message :
"THERE ARE STILL UNSETTLED VARIANCES FOR ORD 710040".
Cheking Note "421710 - Check report whether "Deletion flag" status can
be set" I found the program COPC_COSTOBJ_REORGCHECK , this program
shows that I have Unsettled variances since 2004...
The order have a settlement rule PER, So I can't settle 2004
variances.. checking the note 421710, I Found that other way is to turn
off the field indicator "variance to costing-base PA" in OK07.
Must I turn off the field "variance to costing-base PA" temporaly, in order to close de cost colectors ?
there are another program or report that I can use in order to settle the old variances?

Hi,
Is it possible to do product costing in SAP BI?
Has any one done this.
We have scenario as mentioned below.
The system landscape consists of SAP ECC plus some other ERP running with Oracle as DB.
The BOM is maintained in the external system. Product planning is executed in excel and the derived standard cost is updated in the external system. The actual qunatities for production, RM, PM consumption is available in the external system. The actual RM PM rate is available in SAP. The overheads are booked in SAP FICO.
There may be need of cost allocation to be done in BI.
How can it be done?
Please advise.
Thank you.
DeepakHi
How are calculating the Previous Period Data selection?
Have you defined an abap routine in the infopackage?
When it has loaded 50000 records, check in the Monitor, for what PERIOD data selection, the load has happened.
You can check the data in source system through RSA3 transaction.
Thanks. -

Hi Guru's,
I am new to Product Costing and I have few questions,
If any one can give me the ways I can resolve these issue,
I would appreciate there help.
Please find the questions below,
1) I have scenario where BOM has 10 items and in that I am not required to use one of the material. that may be a RAW or Halb etc.
This is only for particular scenario where I don't use that material, In other scenarios we use all that present in the BOM.
2) BOM have 10 items and I have one material which is $5 and I need this material from another Profit center and that is $6,
so how can I charge this material cost to $6 in the BOM.? (One way is doing mixed costing) if you can suggest any more ways to do it
3) In BOM one item is $10 but we want to cost it only 70% ie: $7?
only for 1 scenario we cost 70% of that material in BOM for all other scenarios we cost 100%.
Please help.
Regards
ChandraSantosh,
I think may be I was not clear on my question,
(1) I have scenario where BOM has 10 items and in that I am not required to use one of the material. that may be a RAW or Halb etc.
This is only for particular scenario where I don't use that material, In other scenarios we use all that present in the BOM.
STEP 1 .CHECK " DO NOT COST" OPTION IN COSTING 1 VIEW OF THE MATERIAL.
STEP 2. RELEASE COST ESTIMATE.
STEP 3 . SET BACK " DO NOT COST" OPTION IN COSTING 1 VIEW OF THE MATERIAL FOR NEXT COSTING RUN.)
Every time changing in the material master is not possible because we use same material as a component for other FG's.
and in this particular BOM we not only use it for this scenario but also for other scenarios where we use it as a component.
((2) BOM have 10 items and I have one material which is $5 and I need this material from another Profit center and that is $6,
so how can I charge this material cost to $6 in the BOM.? (One way is doing mixed costing) if you can suggest any more ways to do it
NO NEED TO CHANGE MATERIAL COST IN BOM.
IN BOM, SELECT MATERIAL FROM THE DESIRED PLANT / PROFIT CENTER.))
Can you give me more details on this please...........2 questions.
(3) In BOM one item is $10 but we want to cost it only 70% ie: $7?
only for 1 scenario we cost 70% of that material in BOM for all other scenarios we cost 100%.
1)IN BOM, MAINTAIN THE REQUIRED QTY AS 70%.
2) DO COSTING RUN.
3) SET BACK THE CHANGES IN BOM FOR DIFFERENT SCENARIO.)
For this particular scenario there are 10 materials and in that only one material Halb price is 10 at qty 1,
and I want this cost to be $7 ie $3 less than the original price in material master.
example:
material cost: $10 and qty is 1.
in the above scenario i use same material and same quantity ie $10 qty is 1.
but i want this material price to be 70% price ie $7 in the PO.

Encryption of standard SAP field (product cost)
Hi,
My client would like to encrypt product cost-related fields, and I was wondering how to encrypt the field much like you would a credit card number of password.
Thanks
BrianNot sure if the encryption is in the GUI so users don't see it or in the database so DBAs can't access it.
One way to encrypt it is through DB encryption methods such as TDE for Oracle. If you are Oracle shop, TDE is in your license and you can use is as of Oracle 10.2.0.4.

Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector
Hi SAP Gurus,
How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
many thanks!problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.

Error while creating Product Cost Collector
Hi SAP Gurus,
While creating Product Cost Collector I am getting the following Error:
Enter a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit
Message no. KD059
Diagnosis
The settlement profile used requires you to define a distribution rule for Order. For period 009 2008, however, you have not created a distribution rule for Order.
Procedure
Create a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit, because, if the distribution rule does have a validity limit, the system always issues this message in the period following the last valid period.
You can also use a different settlement profile that does not require such a distribution rule, or change the settlement rule used.
Can any one help where exactly i need to maintain this.
The settlement profile settings are fine.
I am getting this error only after i have changed the scenario to Reproting point back flushingDear Suryanarayana
Please check the corresponding settlement profile for product orders.
In most of the cases message KD059 means that no distribution rule is assigned to your production order.
This is not an error, but the system design. In order to avoid message KD059 you will either have to enter settlements parameters and a distribution, or change settlement profile for valid receivers in transaction OKO7 from 'settlement required' to 'Can be settled'.
I hope this helps resolve the issue for you. I wish you the best in your endeavours.
Kind Regards,

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 BashirHi 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

Product costing valuated sales order stock
Hi all,
We are in complex mfg & currently re-vamping all the ERP SAP instances ( totalling 13 company codes into one single)
All 13 units( who use NON Valuated scenarios for cost object controlling) wil use valuated sales orders & projects. The old 13 companies will be trated as profit centers with transfer pricing functionality ( Multiple valuations)
My issue is to get a product cost for sales order in <b>profit center view</b> ( plan cost) exactly same as to the marked standard cost itemisation of the FERT material.
We mark & release the std cost in Jan & the client wants to have the same itemisation of the cost ( with same values) even if they create a sales order in 2nd or 3rd or last quarter. ( As you might be knowing that the sales order wil always cal;culate the values as per the current qty structure date. In Std SAP date control, there is nothing which allows us to cost exactly the same cost estimate as marked & released in JAn)
Could somebody pls give pointers as how to get this sales order plan cost itemisation exactly equal to prevously marked & released itemisation ?
We use the Std costing variant ( Costing Type = Profit center valuation) with Std date control.
Thanks in advance to all of you,
Warm Regards
DhirajHi,
If the sales order stock is valuated, you have immediate access to its value in Financial Accounting. The assigned accounts are debited and credited as a result of the valuated goods movements. From the viewpoint of MRP, the sales order stock is available for the sales order only.
If the sales order stock is not valuated, it is managed via a cost collector. The system does not carry out invoice verification postings for goods movements, and you cannot obtain an overview of how the stock is valuated until the end of the settlement period in Controlling.
Valuated sales order stocks have the following advantages:
The full costs are available at each manufacturing level.
All goods movements are immediately reflected in Financial Accounting
Assign points if helpful
