Production costs full absorption

Hi,
I have few service cost centers and production cost centers.
At the month end we are allocation service cost centers expenses to production cost centers using various statistical key figures.
At the month end we want to absorb full cost in production cost centers.
for that we are first KSII transaction code.
Still we find some amount in cost center as under absorption with minus value.
how can we absorb full value?
We have not activated splitting in OKTZ?
Please guide me

Hi,
Any suggestions?

Over Absorption in Production Cost Center.

Dears,
We are getting the over absorption in cost center after doing of actual price calculation settlement. we have done the following transactions at month end. eventhough we are getting over absorption (i.e., credits are more than debits) Credits are activity costs are transferred from production cost center to production/process orders or product collectors.
KO8G settlement of internal orders to cost centers.
KSV5 execution of distribution cycle.
KSII execution of actual price calculation.
CON2 revaluation at actual prices.
CO88 Settlement of Production/Process Orders.
Even after doing of the above trnasactions we are getting over absorption.
kindly advise me in order to resolve this issue.

Hi Divraj,
The same issue i am replicating in the development server i created one assessment cycle i gave one service cost center as sender and one cost element group, the group contains 10 primary cost elements(GL's), i done postings with 10 gl's respect to this service cost center, in my assessment cycle i gave one assessment cost element in segment header the sender rule is posted amounts, the receiver tracing factor contains variable portions, actual activity and no scaling, in receiver i gave cost center group contains 4 production cost centers, sender values is share in 100%, version is zero the receiver tracing factor tab contains variable portions as actual activity and one activity i maintained, the receiver weighting factor contains 4 production cost centers and factor percentage is 100%.
Now i execute the assessment cycle in KSU5 i am getting senders in cycle but receivers i am getting zero, when i took the actual activity, variable portions and no scaling i have to maintain activity price in KP26 and this cost center i have to maintain in process order that is fine please explain me how the cost will distributed to production cost center please explain the procedure in detailed.
Hopefully i will get clarity on the concept................

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

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
Dhiraj

Hi,
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

Flow of product costing

Hi All,
Iam new to controlling area. I want to know the entire process flow of product costing and what are journal entries reflect in this flow.
Thanks,
chandu

Hi,
The requirement of batch wise capturing of costs can be achieved by creating a separate production order for each batch of production. The production order captures all the cost, which are incurred during the production process. The details of each cost are as below.
1.For every batch of production a production order is raised in the production department. The production order contains the details of BOM and recipe.
2.The Bill of Material (BOM) details the raw material and packing material in the required portions that are required for production.
3.The recipe contains the detail process of production activity including resource such as manufacturing machineries, equipment. Each operation is assigned to its resource and each resource assigned to relevant activities such as Labour, fuel, power etc. (maximum of six parameters for each resource). Each resource is attached to a cost centre.
4. The recipe and BOM are copied to production order automatically when the order is created. The quantities of materials and activities are determined at standard levels (Planned costs).
5. A production order may contain several phases and each phase requires individual confirmation.
6.Once a phase in production process is complete the production person gives his approval by the way of confirmation.
7. At the time of giving confirmation he inputs the actual quantities incurred for material and activities. Using these inputs the Actual Cost can be arrived.
8. From controlling module, the planned rates of activities are uploaded on periodical basis. monthly or annually. The cost of material is taken at Moving Average price.
Once the batch production is complete the production person gives his final approval to the order as u201CTechnically completed (TECO)u201D.
9. At the month end / period end all these process orders are settled at the costing department.
10. The settlement results in calculating the overheads on predetermined rate and transferring the total cost of the production on to the finished product. The following entry is generated
Finished goods stock Account Dr
To factory output Account Cr.
11.The work-in-process is calculated based on the status assigned to production order. If the order has a status of u201Cu201CTechnically completed (TECO)u201D. the work-in-process is not calculated, but the order will be totally settled.
12.The standard cost of finished product is released at the beginning of every month. The standard cost is calculated based on the Bill of Material and recipe defined independently for each finished and semi finished product.
13.The variance is calculated on the difference of standard cost of material and the actual cost incurred in the production.
14. When the actual cost of power, fuel, Labour are accounted against respective cost centres in the month end, the system automatically determines the under absorption or over absorption of production costs. This difference cost will be apportioned to all the batches on a predetermined basis.
Revaluation of Production orders
Initially cost planned in cost centre accounting against activity types are used for valuating the materials that are produced. At the month end when actual cost are booked from financial accounting, revised activity price calculation is carried in cost centre accounting and with this prices the production orders are revalued. The revaluation is carried to the extent of difference between planned vs. actual activity prices. The revaluation production orders will not be carried, as production orders will be settled Immediately.
The actual cost of every batch is determined using above process. A report is generated to know the cost for each batch.
The standard cost fixed with each customer for each product is maintained in a separate database. The Costing department should compare these details with the actual cost of production and identify the difference. Accordingly a Debit/Credit note can be generated.
Once a standard cost estimate is created, it updates the material master with that rate.
Cost Object Controlling is an area in cost accounting that assigns the costs incurred in the production of company activities (such as internally manufactured materials) to those activities. Cost Object Controlling supports you in:
Reaching make-or-buy decisions
Determining price floors
Performing complex cost analysis (such as target/actual analysis)
Determining inventory values
Cost component Structure:
A control of how the results of activity price calculation or material costing are stored.
In Product Cost Controlling (CO-PC), the cost component structure determines the attributes for passing on the following costs:
Material costs passed on to material valuation as the standard price or inventory price
Product cost components are
Material
Accessories
Power
Fuel
Sal & wages
Depreciation
R&M/ Stores
Others
Admin OH
Standard Cost Estimates (Applicable for trading activity)
At the start of the fiscal year standard cost estimates will be released based on the planned raw material prices and planned manufacturing overheads. These standard prices are updated in the respective material master. These cost estimates are run only for make-to-stock materials.
The various components of cost are incurred in producing a product is captured. The following cost components are considered for materials cost, consumables and fuel, direct
Labour cost, utilities. Repairs and maintenance gases, depreciation, administrative overheads. A costing sheet will be created to capture administrative overheads cost which are not absorbed in the products as activity cost but are to be considered for inventory valuation In the first step planned activity outputs for each cost centre are planned, then planned cost that will be incurred against each activity type and primary cost element are planned, by carrying out activity price calculation the planned price of each activity is arrived. These activity types are entered in the work centers and routings. When cost estimates are created, system captures material cost from the prices mentioned in material master. The manufactured overheads are updated from the activity cost planned in cost center accounting.

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.

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.

Remaining balance on production cost centers - GBB AUI

Refer to OSS 183250 and note 186485.
If you dont specify in the settlement profile for the production order that the variances are not transferred from the production order into CO-PA, you will settle the variances to <b>CO-PA twice</b>: once from the production order (broken down into variance categories), and once from the sales order item. The settlement rule still references the material and not the sales order item.

Product Costing SAP TABLES

Dear Gurus ,
can someone provide me the list of CO Product Costing related SAP TABLES please . Full points will be assigned .
Regards
Deepesh

Deepesh,
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.
