Re-allocating Actual Costs and Actual Work from one project to multiple projects

My company would like to track costs in one project and then re-allocate those costs to multiple projects. Example: An end user would submit a timesheet against a task named 'Analysis' for Project A. Once accepted and published, the
costs for those hours would be subtracted from Project A and 60% of those costs would be transferred to the 'Analysis' task for Project X and 40% of the costs for those hours would be transferred to Project Y.
We believe we can accomplish this through reporting, but before we go this route, we wanted to make sure there was not a logical, supported way in MS Project Server to complete these actions. Could a script be developed to accomplish this?
Thank you!
Tasha

Out of the box Project and Project Server do not support this. However with VBA anything is possible. You could also use PSI to work directly with project data in teh Server db but that would take much longer to develop. Check you can do what you want
in VBA then you can use the result to spec the server version afterwards.

Project POC to determine actual cost and actual revenue

Dear all experts,
please help me on the following issue.
i am working on a project for sales.
the project actual cost and actual revenue will be determined by the project POC.
i have read the SAP help about project progress.
but it confused me.
my first question is how can i caculated the actual POC?
is there a standard predefined way to solve it?
please give me some hints or suggestions.
thanks a lot.
Judy

Hi,
Can anyone detail the steps involved in carrying out RA with Valuation Method 7 with progressive value analysis. Here, we can give a percentage of POC into the system as certified by the Engineers unlike Valuation method 3 where the POC is calculated on the basis of actual costs incurred.
In the case of valuation method 3, only revenue is analysed by the system with reference to the POC and necessary entries are posted as Revenue surplus or Revenue in excess of billings. Whereas in the case of valuation method 7, both the revenue and costs are analysed and necessary provisions are made both for revenue and costs.

Judy

PLM table for Internal Order budget, Actual Cost and Actual Hrs

Dear all
In cProjects version 4.0, we have integration with existing ECC 6.0. We create Internal Order manually and assign it to cProjects.
One cProject having one Internal Order.
Resource Planning part is managed in cProjects while Actual Time keeping(CATS with reference to Internal Order), budgeting of Internal Order, Material and Service Procurement which is done against Internal Order is managed in ECC. ECC and PLM are separate systems.
We have RFCs established to transfer actual hrs, budget and actual cost data from ECC to PLM.
Which is the ABAP table in PLM where we get linking of cProject with Internal Order and also actual hrs, budget and actual cost data in PLM system?
Thanks & Regards
Ashish

actual hrs, budget and actual cost data in PLM system?
Its not there, actual hours can be found in DPR_Task but it needs to be transferred by running a report.
The planned cost etc is also calculated at runtime and passed on to Costing object in ECC (Int order/PS)
Actual hours will be in CATSDB in ECC
needless to say actual cost will also be there in ECC and not in PLM, PLM only displays at runtime based on RFC.
If you want to try, Break the RFC and try to check the Evaluation..

Copy and Paste Formula from One Cell to Multiple (How?)

I am aware of the "autofill" function by dragging the bottom-right corner of a cell containing a formula.
However, I cannot possibly do this if I want to copy the formula and paste it into 10,000 cells.
If I specify a range of cells to paste the copied formula - only the first cell gets it. I have seen this problem in previous iWork for a long time but am surprised Apple has not improved it (or made it obvious enough for me to get it at first sight).
Thanks!

Hello
It's really boring to read several times the same comments: +When I use Autofill on formulae to copy them into empty rows I end up with little red triangles saying it isn't a valid formula. In Excel and Lotus 123 I can just use Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to copy and paste into as many cells as I want, why not Numbers?+
Here we are not Apple employees so you are loosing your time and also the time of all of us reading your posts.
Of course we may let them unread. But as old helpers, we always assume that when someone post something, it's to ask a question to which one of us may give a answer.
Your flames are perfectly useless.
If you wish that Apple take care of your opinion, go to "Provide Numbers Feedback" in the "Numbers" menu and describe your wishes.
Happily, one poster make me laugh when he wrote that "this anomaly is a long time one in iWork".
I really don't understand how an application which is in version 1.0 or 1.0.1 may contain a "long time" anomaly !!!!
And the only responce I may give to all of you is: *if you can't live with this feature, stay with E…l.*
*We will not miss you !!*

Joining Actuals and Planned Work from Project Server

Hi,
I have an SQL based query which returns Actuals and Planned work from Project Server; however a number of records (generally generic resources based on the ResourceIsGeneric column) are excluded. I believe this is because my Actuals query does not return
generic resources as we are joining both sides of the query on ResourceUID. I have included a snippet below - is there a way to join Actuals and Planned work so I can return all Resource data?

Hi,
you pasted just part of your query, e.g. is declaration of @ParamTable missing. Without complete query, it is difficult to see, what you are trying to do.
Could you please provide complete query?

So is there any other way to get these Actual costs and
from where i can find the Planned Costs

WBS Element Actual Cost and 'Detailing the Value Type ' issue

Hello BW Experts ,
I want to extract the WBS Element Actual Cost and Revenue.
I have selected the data source 0CO_OM_WBS_6 .
In this data source there is a field Detailing the value type ' 0VTDETAIL.
As per SAP BI Help if the value of this field exists between 1 to 4 then it is actual cost of WBS ( also Key figure Category 0METYPE should be 1000 for actual cost and for revenue it is 1001).
value 4 of 0VTDETAIL means CO Activity Allocations.
When I see the data from this data source in RSA3 , I could not get any WBS whose 0VTDETAIL is 1 to 4 and Key Firgure Category as 1000, value type = 10.
Is there any other data source I should select in order to get actual cost for WBS ?
I can see the settelment cost whose 0VTDETAIL = 5 through this data source in RSA3.
But I want to see the data for the Actual Cost whose 0VTDETAIL = 4 .
What could be the reason ?
Thanks in advance .
Amol.

Dear Oscar,
Thanks for your response,
The Actual Cost posted by our Functional Consultant is USD 250, but i am getting the Total Actual cost is ZERO (Sum of -250 +250) as i shown above.
the posted actual cost is +250, finally we need this figure only,
if i do restriction on Sender receiver Indicater field with S than i will get Actual Cost 250, but in SAP standard RKF for Actual Cost there is no restriction on Sender receiver Indicater field (S & H)
I hope you got my point now.
Thanks

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,
Judith

Hi,
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.

Rahul

hi ,
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

Target Cost and Actual Cost

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 advance

Dear 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.

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
with regards,
K Rama Krishna

Hi 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,

In IW32 no Planned Cost and Actual is showing Zero

hi,
In IW32 no Planned Cost and Actual is showing Zero,since activity type is mentioned.
how it could be displayed.
Thanks

Dear Sharma,
1. This is regarding Maintenance order, frist you confirm by clicking on the operations tab-> double clicking on the work center->click on costing tab, check here activity type, activity unit is maintained.
2. then in in KP26 check the activity price in the current period.if it is zero u will get zero
3 then in the order click on components, if components are consumed also check the component price in material master.
this will resolve your issue

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,
Tapan

Hi 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
