Production order settlement in case of non valuated material

Hello guys,
Our client wants some of the materials have to be non valuated. These materials are raw materials and SFG also. We can assign UNBW material types to those materials.
I have created one material for test purpose. It doesn't contain the accounting view so as no valuation class. BOM of it , doesn't contain any component as client doesn't want to show any consumption on production order.While creating the order for that material system asks for the settlement rule. I skip that step and create the order. I do GR for the same.
My question is, is production order settlement essential for these orders? What if we don't settle the order. No activity type has been assign to the work center.
Kindly give ur valuable inputs.

Hi,
No need to create material as UNBW type.
Normal ROH, HALB, FERT material type we can achieve this.
In the BOM of FG or SFG goto item detail screen there is a tick mark in costing.
Remove the tick by OS23 - BOM status.
Now you can do your production as regular. But cost will not get update.You can do regular settlement also.

Non Valuated material accounting posting

Hi friends ,
While reading the help of NON Valuated material ...I come across the below statement.
"The stock of a given material is only managed on a quantity basis, an account assignment must be defined in the purchase order. However, this account assignment does not result in the goods receipt being posted to consumption/usage. Instead, it results in the costs being debited to the account assignment object."
From this statement , my expectation was ...
In case of VALUATED MATERIAL (like spares etc) and Account assignment K in PO , system will automatically determine the GL from OBYC against GBB / VBR keys , but here at my end system is not picking this GL in PO line item and asking me to enter the GL along with Cost center and other account assignment details.
Similar details like GL and account assignment is asked by system for NON Valuated material also.
In both cases , entered GL is getting debitted ... therefore looking for the perfect explaintaion of SAP HELP statement given above.
Regards
Shrey

Ok ...
Now my understanding is like
In case of VALUATED MATERIAL with Account Assiged PO (say K) , system will pick the GL automatically from GBB / VBR and in case of NON VALUATED MATERIAL with Account Assigned PO (Say K) , system WILL NOT pick any GL and You have enter it Manually in PO line detail (Account Assignment Tab).
AND IN BOTH CASES GL in PO Line item ( Account Assignment) will get debitted and GR/IR gets Credited at the time of MIGO.
The Only advantage of using NON VALUATED material is ...... system will also update Qty and which can issue to any cost center in future ( to track Qty ) ........
BUT IN CASE I remove "QTY UPDATE" tick from NON-VALUATED Material type ( for my valuation Area) , then I am expecting system will not update any Qty and in THAT CASE BOTH material type (VALUATED AND NON VALUATED) will behave in similar manner , except (automatic) GL determination at PO level.
is this right ?

Importance of Profit centre filed for non valuated material

Importance of Profit centre filed for non valuated material material master

Hi
Profit center field in case of non valuated material is useful, only if your consumption a/c is not a cost element. In this case, it takes PC from mat master
Else, if takes PC from the CO object in which the GR is accounted.
However, your screen layout in MM might have defined PC as a mandatory field in MM01.. For this, you need to contact your MM consultant

Open Prod. Orders = Convert Non-Valuated material to Valuated material

Hello,
We have converted from Non-Valuated Materials to Valuated manterials in Stock.
But now, we are concerned with Open Production Orders - which have Non-Valuated Materials already issued to the order.
We would like to find out how do other companies handle this type of scenario.
Is there a tool or program that can be used, please advice.
Many thanks in advance,

Rio,
We have used Production orders when we want to convert 1 material number to another material number. It is a good & robust process. It allows the business to capture the cost of converting 1 material to another material with all the labor and or machine costs.
In your case I assume you may be using an unvaluated material as component & adding some labor or machine time to arrive at your Valuated material. Seems like a normal & straightforward process.
Anothe option is to do a standard Transfer posting using Material to material transfer ( mov type 309). It allows to transfer post materials that have same material type. But you may have to check if it allows to convert unvaluated (UNBW) to unvaluated (HALB) material type or not.
But fisrt option is a good process.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Account Assignment Category in Rework Order for non valuated material

Friends,
We created non valuated material for rework. I want to accumulate the rework cost. When i am trying in CO02 = Header = Settlement Rule where the category is MAT but I want it to be ORD.
How that category is changed to ORD, so that I can able to accumulate cost with respect to order?

Hi,
Whether you are creating the rework order with material? Actually rework order is supposed to be created without material with transaction CO07. Here in this case you have to define the account assignment category ORD in settlement rule.
In some cases to meet the requirement we can create the rework order with material also through transaction CO01/CO08, but in this case the account assignment category will be MAT by default. Therefore you cannot change it to ORD.
Hence you need to create rework order to have account assignment category ORD w/o material only.

After production order settlement, where does the cost go?

Dear Experts,
I understand after we did the "order settlement" for production order, the cost will be settled to material manufactured from the said production order. Say, the total cost is $10,000 to produce 1000 units of finished goods (FG), then the cost settled to each individual FG at $10 each, am I right? Where can I see the settled cost in the material master?..
I checked in the cost center report, S_ALR_87013611, I can see the cost Credited from "production" cost center with a breakdown in settlement cost element such as machine hour, setup and personnel hour. I understand the other side of Debit was to the production order, and only after order settlement, I'm not sure which cost center will be Debited.
That would be the CO side, how about the FI, would there be any cost posted to the GL side after production order settlement to the material?
Please advise..
regards,
Abraham

Hi Abraham,
It's not the button i mentioned. I was just trying to take u to the accounting document from the settlement screen. well just drill down the settlement screen and u'll get it. No big deal.
But more important is the concept. I'll share my understanding here. (cost by production order)
Any value that flow into controlling module should have a cost object. Here production order is the cost object.
First u create a production order (cost object) for say 1 unit of X with a std price of Rs. 10
Std price comes frm material master as a result of std cost estimate
U start production - Raw materials are consumed - 2 qty x Rs.3.
Entry RM Consumption Dr Rs. 6    Inventory Cr Rs.6 (Prod order is debited with Rs.6)
Activity (Let's say machine hours - 3 Hrs x Rs.2) According to the routing it was 2 hrs but actual production took 3 hrs.
Entry - None - But production order is debited with Rs. 6.
When production is complete for 1 qty of X, entry flows
Finished Goods Dr Rs.10    Change in Stock Cr. Rs.10 (Production order is credited with Rs.100
Abraham, now visualise both sides of the production order. It will have debit of Rs.12 and credit of Rs.10.
Now accountant sees the production order and confirms the values are ok and puts the status of TECO to the order. which means the order is technically complete.
Now when u run the order settlement, this production order is picked up by the system (due to it's status). System sees difference between debit and credit of Rs 2.
So it cedits the production order with Rs. 2. Now both debit and credit of production order is equal (Rs.12)
Entry Price diff A/c Rs,2     Change is stock A/c Rs.2
Now this rs. 2 is settled to COPA. It does not flow to material.
Reason: in a std costing system materials are valued at standard cost and
Hope this helps. Do revert in case of doubts.

Production Order Settlement

Dear All,
When I am trying to settle production order ( T.code: KO88 ) I am getting the error as
Moving average price for material is negative: 100504 2300
Message no. M8783
Kindly suggest remedies for this.
Rgds
Srini

Normally what happens is that when you have a material with price control as moving average instead of standard price. The moving average is updated when you do production order settlement
In your case, the settlement is trying to bring down the price to negative. Check this would resolve yr error.
You might want to change the materials from moving average to standard or check why the settlement is taking your moving average to negative.

Production order settlement variance button

Hi,
I check the settlement of production order and would like to clarify.
In the settlement rule, the account assignment category is MAT, when double click the rule or click settlement variance button, it shows category PSG.
why there are 2 settlement? for settlement to asset, there is only 1 and no settlement variance button.
so why production order settlement has 2 settlement?
Thanks

Hi,
On settlement of Production order, two documents gets created one is Accounting document for posting the variances to Accounts and the Profitability analysis documents.
This is because, when COPA is activated, the Sold quantity in copa is valuated using the Standard cost estimate.
For eg: if the SCE of X material is 100 Rs. and Billed quantity is 10 Qty, this billed quantity is valuated using the 100 rs and 1000 Rs is transferred to COPA as COGM.
But when production is carried out, the actual cost can be different from that of SCE. I,e it can be 120 Rs.
Hence there is a difference of 20 Rs with which inventory is being valuated less in both Accounts and also in COPA. Hence the same is settled to the respective module on the settlement of Production order so that you have FI and COPA gets reconciled to that extent.
But Asset settlement we are valuating it with full amount of acquisition. and there is no standard set for the same. Hence the result.

Production order settlement to post wip

Hi,
My understanding on production order settlement is to carry out 2 task :
variance posting in the case the operation is complete
cr p&l change in stock
dr p&l price difference
and also
WIP posting in the case the operation is not complete yet.
cr p&l change in stock
dr balance sheet wip
WIP calculation is done in KKAX / KKAO and posting is done in KO88.
Now my question is, in KO88 setting I do not see any setting to tell the system to do the WIP posting. I only can see the setting to post to variance only.
and OKG8 is to set which account to post to.
So how KO88 know to post WIP?
Thanks

Hi,
KO88 transaction code is used for both WIP and Variance settlement.
It is the Order status which decides whether KO88 settles variances or WIP.
When the Order status is Released, Partially delivered, Partially released, KO88 gives you WIP
When the status is Delivered or TECO it gives Variances. Hence this is the link which we establish in the WIP configuration OKGC and in OKG8 we link the GL accounts for WIP.
For variance we assign in OBYC, PRD transaction
Thanks & Regards,

Production order settlement accounting entry

Hi,
Can u gibve some link what is production order settlement , and how the accounting entry is generated, our PP person have done the settlement in april 2010 but accounting entry are not updated in the corresponding g/l account how to check this.

Production order settlement is just a process of closing the order after goods recipt (production) is being booked in system
Production order settle the costs to CCNs from the orders. It doesnt have any entry unless under / over absorption. In that case following entry will be generated (i.e. of difference amount)
Inventory Change Dr. To Inventory & vice a versa as the case may be of under/over absorption.
If you go thru MB5B for the material, you will find the same without any Mvt. type.
Hope it is clear.

Error while doing production order settlement

Hi frds,
When I am doing the production order settlement, I am getting the following error
" There are no accrued amounts; settlement is not possible".
The status of the order is TECO CNF DLV PRC BASC BCRQ GMPS MANC.
Rajnish

Rajnish,
Please check if there is cost balance for the order, to me it looks like the order is already settled. In the order display mode (CO03) menu bar Goto->Costs->Balance.
If balance exists then the problem may be related to the settlement period used in the Intial screen of transaction KO88. Please check the cost incured period and use the same period as settlement period.

Auto Production Order Settlement

Dear experts,
Please advise how to implement the auto production order settlement (configuration, exit)?
i need to automatically carry out the settlement procedures (in the background?) as soon as the production order gets the 'TECO' status.
I searched for similar question but not answered
http://scn.sap.com/thread/463939
Thanks for your kind suggestions in advance.
Best Regards,
Gary

Hi Gary,
What I meant here was, let's assume you have 10 plants where TECO would be done for Prod. Orders
Assuming that you split the batch jobs based on the number of the open Prod. Orders in a plant and then have them run once a day to avoid excessive use of system resources.
The program can be found with search string *CO88* in SE38.
The settlement would happen for the Orders which has the TECO status as per the standard SAP design, only difference would be that the once having no changes would be ignored and with the newly TECOed Prod. orders would be considered for the settlement.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
Production order settlement is done to capture the variance and the WIP to the header material of production order. On execution of the settlement the entries for FI will be posted with respect to variance and WIP
