Profit center in Product cost collector

Hi,
We need to change the profit center in the product cost collector after the actual postings were made. SAP does not allow to change the profit center. So any other work around solution for this issue? Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks & Regards,
Raghava

Hi Bhuvaneswari,
We are having a situation,
The issue is to change the profit center for the product collector after the actual postings were made. Now the big problem is there is no PA transfer structure defined to execute the settlement for these product cost collectors and then change the profit center. Can you give some work around solution for this? And also what about the postings made previously.
To give more insight,
In the order type, Settlement profile is maintained
In the Settlement profile, Allocation structure is maintained
How do you link the settlement profile / allocation structure to the PA transfer structure?
I can not settle the order (Product cost collector) as there is no PA transfer structure
Thanks & Regards,
Raghava

Mass change of profit centers in Product Cost Collectors

Gurus,
My client has a requirement of mass change of Profit Centers in Product Cost Collector (Transaction Code KKF6N). Is there any way of doing this using LSMW or anything else?
I had tried with LSMW Recording, but there is a particular production version associated to profit centers in KKF6N tranasction, because of this I couldnt go to particular production version and update the profit center.
So, Is there any easy way doing this?

Thanks,

Assesment To Product Cost Collector

Dear All
Do you know how to do assesment from cost center to Product cost Collector based on activity quantity that input by Production planning modul?
Thanks

Dear Shankar,
As you explained it's not possible to perform GI through MIGO or MB1A against a product cost collector.
In case if you want to post the extra component consumption,use component backflush radio button in
MFBF and select do you want to post as per the BOM components(select the radio button for Propose
components according to BOM) or else you can enter the components manually (by selecting the radio
button for No BOM explosion).
I hope through this can post the components,because the cost gets booked in the product cost collector.
Check and revert

Profit center change in product cost collector

Hi All,
I would like to know what precautions we should take for mass changes of profit center corrections in the "Product Cost Collector".
I want to make same profit centers in material master and in product cost collector for that we need some report on "Product Cost Collector" or table name so that we may compare the profit center in material master and Product cost collector in order to make them in sink.
Regads,
Raj

Transfer of Costs in Product Cost Collector to COPA

Dear Experts,
Please can you advise me on this current issue I'm having. Below is a description of problem:
Customer is currently using report designed in COPA (KE30) to derive P&L report for using Plant as a characteristic.
This was being done at a time when Product Costing functionality was not being used
All costs (administrative, sales and production costs) were being collected in cost centers
At end of month assessment of cost center values to COPA is executed (KEU5)
Customer is then able to derive P&L report per Plant characteristic
However with implementation of Product Costing, all Production related costs are captured in Product Cost Collectors and not Cost Center
Hence we have no way of assessing or transferring total production costs from Product Cost Collector to CO-PA
We have tried to configure FI/MM PA transfer structure (KEI1) and default account assignment (OKB9) for automatic transfer of costs on goods receipt/issue, however this is not working because the product cost collector is used as the default account assignment for the transactions
So far only material cost valuation of sales/billed materials are possible (which does not address concern)
As a result we have a gap and customer is unable to derive P&L by Plant from CO-PA.
Can you advise if there is a way out, in order to have all Production Cost transferred to CO-PA.
Thanks,
Ola.

Hi Ola
Your Cost centers would be categorized as below
1. MFG Cost Centers (In Plant)
2. Service Cost Centers (In Plant)
3. Few Cost centers (outside plant) Eg: Sales, Marketing, Sales offices etc
At period end
1. Allocate the Costs from SER CC to MFG CC using Distribution / Assessment cycle.
This will make SER CC as zero
2. Calculate actual activity price in MFG CC (KSS2 / KSII)
3. After this, do revaluation of PCC using CON2.. This will make balance in MFG CC as zero
4. Allow the Variances to be updated to COPA by ticking the "Variances to Costing based COPA" in your settlement profile
5. In short, what remains for you to allocate to COPA is the 3rd category of CC.. i.e. you should allocate those CC to COPA whose cost is not included in the cost of product using COPC module

Standar cost and product cost collector not updating the new price

Hi,
Created Standard cost estimate for one FG product and runned the product cost collector. Based on that consumption delivery everthing is made. Later on the work center and activity type changed in routing. Now i am trying to run the standard cost with new activity price (due to work center change) for the current period, system is showing only the previous rate(previous period) and it is not updating the new price becuase of already we have created the product cost collector.
Can any one give the suggestion for how to update the new price in standard cost as well as new price updation in product cost collector.
govind.

Hi
1. If the original cost estimate was run in the current month - Then you cant re-release cost estimate unless you reverse it from CKR1
If the cost estimate was of previous months - then you can definetely release it again
2. In cost collector, you need to manually cost it again using the Preliminary costing feature... Your cost coll will then show 2 cost estimates i.e. One from Original date to current date-1, and 2nd from Current date to 31.12.9999

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.

How to maintain One product cost collector for multiple materials and configuration setting

Hi experts,
my requirement is that i want to maintain one product cost collector for multiple materials ans also i want to know the configuration setting for the same.
I have used KKF6N but it is not working in my case. I went through KKF6M also but there i found multiple cost collectors.
please guide me in the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shripad,
you cannot assign same Product cost collector to different material.
Because you creating cost collector for material combination of material /production version,material /Bom Routing.
so please create individual cost collector for every material.
if you have any query kindly revert back.
Please mark the answer as helpful if it is helpful to you.

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 flushing

Dear 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,
Brendan

Profit Center deriviation from Cost Center

Hi all,
I have just configured CCA and PCA for one of our new company code.
I have created 3 cost centers like A, B, C and subsequently same have been created as profit centers too.
Maintained the profit center in the cost center master data.
No other derivation rules has been configured so far.
Now i am trying to do a expense posting with F-02, after entering cost center, system is updating profit center field with a dummy profit center only.
Even i f a changed the dummy to normal profit center, again system replacing the normal PC with dummy PC.
I want like...when i enter CC as A, then i need to derive PC also as A for the line item. ( For both expense items as well as revenue items).
Please suggest.
Regards,
Srinu

Hi Chintan,
Thanks for your quick response.
We have already implemented the said SAP note.
Let me explain my requirement again.
We have IOA, CCA, PCA active in our system.
For every expense or revenue line item Internal order is mandatory.
apart from we have 3 cost centers and 3 profit centers ( 1:1 )
in cost center master , profit center is assigned.
1) users are going to decide the cost center, while posting FI direct entries only. So while doing F-02, they will enter CC, and IO manually and at the same time PC should derive from cost center master data ( as it is 1:1 only).
2) as specified above, we have IOA, CCA, PCA active. In this case IO, CC, PC are to be set as mandatory fields for Field Status Groups G004 and G029?
Please advise...
Regards,
Srinu

Use of Product cost collector in REM

Hi All,
I am new to PP module, I got some doubts when working on costing of the product.
1. In REM scenario why do we need an extra step of creating product cost collector ??
2. when a product is produced will the prod cost collector is used for both debiting(raw and semi) and crediting(finished prod) ?

Dear Reddy,
1.Product cost collector is the cost collecting object for a period based production or in a REM - repetitive manufacturing
scenario.
2.Without having any product cost collector you cannot carryout production confirmation(assembly backflush) for a product.
3.So for all the products for which production confirmation will be declared requires a individual product cost collector.
4.Prior to this you require a production version for the material.
5.Production version and a product cost collector is also the master data for a REM scenario.
Now check and revert back.

How to see materials which donot comes under product cost collector

hello every body,
can any one help me in finding materials which donot comes under product cost collector.
thanks for all the people who are supporting me
regards,
Bh.krishna mohan

Dear Krishna,
1.Usally the product cost collectors will be maintained for the materials which are executed using a REM scenario.
2.Check in table MARC for the materials for which REM profile does not exists(means this field should be empty) for a given plant.
3.After executing download this and if needed pass it to MARA table to get the FERT and HALB materials.
4.So only those materials for which REM profile is empty ,the product cost collector does not exists.
Check and revert with your queries.
