Raw Material Costing with Actual Cost Component Split
Hi All
I have requirement to split inventory RM Value with material component and Freight cost, all config done and looks well if I check at CKM3N cost component view, material cost $100 and Freight $20, I GR the inventory with freight cost, since I'm using actual costing when journal freight cost go to Price Difference account. But after actual costing closing why the system can't split the variance update to freight cost component? is this the standard SAP behaviour?
Please help for the solution
Regards
Luiz
I see that you want to split your material cost and freight cost. you need to check the following:
Is your current standard cost estimate support this structure i.e do you have seperate cost components for RM and Freight.
If not first you need to change cost component structure and as mentioned by owen you to map the purchase condition type to the origin group and cost component structure.
Then system will do the same for the actual costing

Volatile raw material price and actual costing
Hello,
We are investigating the use of material ledger / actual costing in SAP. We have multiple production plants and multiple distribution warehouses that would be modeled as a plant.
We are worried that due to the extreme volatility of our raw material prices and the fact that some of our products have low volume or slow turnover in some warehouses, our cost of goods sold in SAP using material ledger / actual costing will be difficult to explain and not reflective of actual conditions.
For example, if a product is placed in Warehouse A in month 1, receives very little new product in months 2-4, and then we sell a lot of that product from warehouse A in month 4, the cost of those goods will be very close to the month 1 cost. We are worried about how that will affect our cost of goods sold.
We would like to hear from other companies that have similar conditions to see if this really causes any problems using actual costing / material ledger.
Thanks,
JimmyHello,
Thank you for your response. We would like to understand why other companies do not have a problem with this behavior. Our company is concerned that this will reduce visibility of raw material price fluctuations in COGS (and reports that use COGS data), and make it more difficult to explain COGS behavior. Note that we have some reports on COGS data by material.
In our current system, COGS consumes inventory at the average price accross all warehouses.
Thanks,

Dashboard content is not populated with Planned Cost and Actual Cost
Hi
We are working in cProjects 4.0 + ECC 6.0 implementation. I could not get the data for columns in Planned Cost and Actual Cost in cProjects Project Dashboard. I have properly mapped the config settings and created and assigned a Project in PS
Has anybody got this data in the Dashboard?
Kindly suggest the solution

9394712743Hi Rama,
It is difficult to say, where the problem is.
but typically, the causes of the problem are
customizing is set incorrectly or the evaluation is not carried out.
You can run the the evaluation DPR_EVE_BATCH_DPO additionally, please untick the flag 'check the last changed date'.
Hope, it helps.
Kind regards,

What is the impact if we switch from standard costing to actual costing?
Hi all,
what is the impact if we switch from standard costing to actual costing?
what are the changes is needed in costing?
thanks.Hello,
Its an nice idea to switch from standard to actual costing. It would be advisable to make this switch over happen in a new period praferably with a new year. You would need to carry out the settings for material ledger / actual costing and for the accounting settings you may refer to sap note 908737.
Not much costing changes would be necessary to the existing configuration but you would need to activate material ledger and allign your Inventory accordingly. The settings for ML would be relatively simple but the main problem would be handling the inventory that you already have in stock. You would also need to have a proper closing procedure followed by next month's planning approach which would actualise the inventory at the end of the month and decide the methodology for next month's plan valuation. It should be kept in mind for configuring ML.
The closing sequence would be as under:
1. Complete all Cost Center and production order postings.
2. Complete all Cost center Assessment / Distribution
3. Calculate Actual rate
4. Revaluate production orders
5. Calculate WIP
6. Settle Production Order
7. Run Costing Run (CKMLCP)
Material ledger is capable of actualising activity costs and WIP as well and you should configure it according to your need.
You can follow the standard SAP documentations for configurations + Note 908737 for configuring ML.

Hi All,
When is the target cost and actual cost gets populated and from where does the data comes from liek labour,machine,overhead cost comes?
Thanks in advanceDear Friend,
speaking from controlling point of view, target and actual costs will be flown from "costing variant planned" and "costing variant actual" respectively.In above mentioned varinats, whats the process has to be followed to calculate material costs,activty costs,overhead costs etc will be defined. These variants will be assigned in order type dependent parameters OPL8.
Target Costs - In standard cost estimate(ck11n),target cost will be calculated in the following way
-material cost from material master and BOM
- activity costs from routing( for this u need to plan the activity costs in KP26)
- other costs from the definitions of planned costing variant.
- after running the standard cost estimate,u need to mark n release(ck24).
Actual Costs - material costs frm goods issues (via goods mvmts thru MBIA,MB1B etc) against
production/process order.
- activity costs(as per the price u plannned in KP26)through operation confirmation in
COR6N/CO11N.
- any other costs like overheads,cost center issues etc as per the process defined
in 'actual costing variant'.
Hope this will clear your doubt.

Target cost and actual cost not picking in production order
Hello,
The target cost and actual cost is not updating in production order when I display it in CO03 in cost analysis.
Even though we have maintained planned price in KP26.
Please suggest how it can be populated.
Best Regards,
TapanHi Tapan
For Target cost
1. Your std cost must be released before Goods Receipt
2. There must be goods receipt posted on the prod order
3. You must calculate variances in KKS1/2
For Actual Cost
1. Post Goods receipt and Goods issues
2. See if any mat movements are pending in COGI
3. Ensure that operation is confirmed in PP and no entry is lying in COFC

Function Module to find Planned Costs and Actual Costs against WBS element
Dear All,
We have a requirement where we need to find out the Planned Costs and Actual Costs booked against a WBS element, in a year. The costs can be against all the plan versions or on individual plan version.
Are there any function modules to retrieve this value?
Thanks for the help.
Warm Regards,
JudithHi,
The easiest way would be to get the OBJNR for all WBS elements from PRPS and look up RPSCO and summarize for Value type (RPSCO-WRTTP) 1 for planned cost and 4 for Actual cost.
Please let me know if this helps.

IW32 needed Plan Cost and Actual Cost table name
Hello ,
In IW32 transaction Plan Cost and Actual cost in cost tab ---Table Name.
Req: needed plan cost & actual cost table names for particular order number.( For New Report )
Can you please let me know where Plan cost & actual cost get stored in IW32 in Cost tab ( table name / function module name ) or how its get calcualted for particular order number.
Thanks in advance !
Regards
Rahulhi ,
i too had same issue , i wrote following FS for that :
Actual and planned cost from PMCO-WRT00 to WRT12(the sum of values should be considered for actual as well as planned ) for PMCO-OBJNR taken from CAUFV -OBJNR for order number AFIH-AUFNR and also currency from CAUFV-WAERS .
Actual cost will have valuation type PMCO-WRTTP = 4 and planned cost will have valuation type PMCO-WRTTP = 1 , which will be placed in different column
hope this helps

Huge Variance between Target cost and Actual Cost
Hi,
In Product Costing,I am getting Huge variance between Target cost and Actual Cost.It is showing the Target Cost as ZERO.Why i am getting this target cost as Zero? what could be the reason? Kindly help me in fix this issue.
Thanks
SupriyaDear,
First do the GR final DEV for Production order
You need to do the variance calculation in KKS2, then when you save the variance, the target cost is calculated.
Target cost appear after GR. And you will get the Variance also right.
Please try and come back.

Early confirmation of activity - Problem with actual cost updating
Hi Guys...
I have trying to find out solution with trail and error basis but.....
The issue is :
Network activity - Planned duration 100hrs
periodic confirmation taken place .... no problem... actual cost also updated accordinly,
at one point of time, realised that activity is completed with 70hrs effort only.
then I have updated 100% completion.
what is the twist here is:
though I have completed 100% of work with 70% of actual hours, however, system display actual costs equals to 100hrs.
I can not reduce planned hours equal to actual hours. at the same, I would like to see my activitiy completed with 70 hrs and actual cost equal to 70hrs of effort only.
is there any enhancement there so that we can have both display planned 100 hrs and actual as 70 hrs.
and costs also.
Looking forward to hear from the gurus and thanks in advance
Shal award points for appropriate answer.
Regards,
PSRHi,
One probable solution would be using User status which will block additional confirmations. At the point when you know that work is completed within planned hours, set this user status so that no more confirmation is possible, at th same time user will come to know that activity is completed.
Hope this helps.

Std Costing and Actual costing at process Order
Hello Friends,
Followings are the client requirements, Please give me your ideas :-
1 . Costing variant is same for all three - costing run, process order (plan and actual), means there is no prices variance on process order level. ( material at std price, Activity plan price, overhead fix%)
2. Alongwith this above client also need to capture actual result (material at MAP, activity at monthly actual price, overhead fix %)
In this case there is price and usage variance can see.
Now as I think that both scenarios are not possible on process order level. According to me we can do by a customize actual costing cockpit.
Need your openion that do we have any option thru standard funcations of sap to get this requirement. If you need any other explanation , please do let me know.
Thanks
RaviThanks friends. I have done.

Delivery costs with shipment costs
Dear Sir,
I want to capture the delivery costs from shipment cost document.
I did all bellow mentioned settings:
For freight cost to be transfered as delivery cost, the Purchase order need to have a freight condition with zero value. Also the freight condition need to have indicator set in config for 'copy shipment cost'. Once this is set up and shipment cost document created, do PGI and it should create a DCGR document in PO History.
Even after all these settings, i tried but no result. It is not creating ths DCGR in PO History.
Can any body tell me this bellow setting: Where is this exactly. I tried no field with the name Relevant for costing
Shipment cost item categories Under the Shipment cost types and item categories activity, set the Relevant for costing field to A = Relevant for calculating delivery costs (Delivery costs). This results in the shipment costs not being transferred directly into accounting. The accounting is done via the purchasing functionality for delivery costs.
Can any body give me the solution?
With regards
LakshmikanthHi
I think that you have had your question answered so if you are happy with this can you please award points if you want to but mainly can you please mark your question as answered so that it is easier to navigate around the open questions in the forum as the number of pages are growing and growing and it takes too long to go through everything especially if a satisfactory answer has already been given and people like me who want to help will give up and so some people may not get any help.
Thanks for this
