Re: Transfer Assessment Cycle

Hi,
Can anybody tell me how to carry out an export of an Assessment Cycle (defined in KEU3)? I do not mean to excel, but i mean so that it can then be imported into another sap system.
Regards,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,
Go to KE3I, select 'cycle' and include your cycle in the change request.

*     Suggest me how to get those results in SAP
If possible What are the senders and receivers and Skfs/ Activity Types to be maintained..............?

Hi
Assessment cycles are used to transfer costs from one cost center to multiple cost centers (KSU5) or from a cost center to multiple PA segments (KEU5). You cannot use plants in an assessment cycle.
Maybe if the data you have given is available in COPA then you get get the required info using a formula in a KE30 report

Assessment cycle

Hi guys. I need help on how to create gl assessment cycle step by step. I created a cycle using FAGLGA11 but i keep getting an error message that the sender and receiver doesn't exist. Is there something that I am missing. My goal is to do profit center assessment to transfer costs from one cost center(service) to 8 cost centers (production) and post the costs into one GL account. Please help , its urgent.Thanks for your help.
Moderator: Please, read and respect the rules of SDN

Hi Sridhar,
You have defined is ok, further you have to give the selections in the Receiver Tracing Factor - Reveiver Rule / Var portion type.
You have the following options:
1. Receiver Rule - You want to transfer the variable portions / fixed amounts / fixed % etc.,
2. Var. Portion type - On what basis you want to split the sender amount from 201 to receiver cost center group Actual costs / plan costs / actual Statistical key figures / plan Statistical key figures.
Unless you dont do the selections it would not be able to identify the sender and receiver.

Assessment cycles

Hello all,
I have the following question regarding assessment cycles (KSU5) customized in KSU1 with Sender rule = 1.Posted amounts and Receive rule = 2. FIxed amounts. The issue is when you execute the KSU5 and the cost center sender is lower than the rule, for example, cost center sender has 100 euros and the rule gets that the cost center receiver will have 200. The system does not check the fixed rule against the total amount from cost center sender, and it transfer 200 and not 100.
Please, could you help me?
Thanks for your attention.

Hi,
What you have described is the standard behavior
Sender rule "posted amounts", receiver rule "fixed amounts"
The sender rule is not taken into account (nothing is read from the database). The fixed receiver amounts are credited to the sender with ALL cost elements of the segment definition. Assessment: the assessment cost element or the assessment cost elements of the allocation structure. Distribution: All cost elements of the segment definition for the sender in Sender/Receiver Tab.

In KEU9 - plan assessment cycle, receiver   ' company code' means what

Hi
In KEU9,    plan assessment cycle for copa,   in RECEIVER there are many eg...product, WBS , company code.
How does the assessemnt   happen for   receiver ' company code'
Thanks

HI,
To reflect all the actual costs from Overhead Cost Controlling in Profitability Analysis, you need to transfer the cost center costs which are not directly attributable to the production process. You can transfer these costs to any profitability segments you wish and thus assign them to any level of your contribution margin hierarchies.
That way you can assign them to the level that best reflects the cause of the overhead.
For example, you can assign the costs that arose in the marketing for a certain customer group to that particular customer group in CO-PA. Similarly, the fixed costs and the excess costs in production should be assigned to the products or product groups that caused these costs.
If you assess the overhead costs to Company Code level, then in your KE30 report these costs are available at Company code level which you can't drill down to lower level.
Hope this helps.

Difference between Distribution and Assessment cycle

Hi,
Can any one help me regarding the above(Difference between Distribution and Assessment cycle)
Thanks in advance
Rajani

HI,
Assessment:
Assessment was created to transfer primary and secondary costs from a sender cost center to receiving controlling objects. During assessment, cost centers or business processes can be used as senders .n The receivers for an assessment can be a cost center, WBS element, internal order, cost object, or a
business process. You can restrict the number of receiver categories in customizing. n Primary and secondary postings are allocated at the end of the period by means of the user-defined
key.
n During assessment, the original cost elements are summarized into assessment cost elements
(secondary cost element category = 42). As the system writes fewer totals records, the assessment
has a better performance than periodic reposting and distribution.
n Line items are posted for the sender as well as for the receiver, enabling the allocation to be recorded
exactly. The system does not display the original cost elements in the receivers. Therefore,
assessment is useful if the cost drilldown for the receiver is not important, for example, as in the case
of the allocation for the "cafeteria" cost center.
n Similar to distribution, the partner is updated in the totals record during distribution.
n You can reverse assessments as often as required.
n You use the Cycle -Segment method to define sender-receiver relationships.
Distribution:
Differences between periodic reposting and distribution are due to information content and
performance.
n For periodic reposting, no separate credit record is written on the sender for the cost element in the
summary report. Instead, the totals record for the cost element is reduced on the debit side, which
means that the original debit amount can no longer be checked there ("unclean credit"). However,
during distribution, the system writes a totals record for the credit ("clean credit"). The information
on the receiver is the same for periodic reposting and distribution ("clean debit").
n Compared with periodic reposting, during distribution, the system also updates the partner in the
totals record for the sender. This means that the partner can be displayed in the information system
on the totals record level.
n As fewer totals records are written during periodic reposting, performance is better than during
distribution. See customizing for an example with figures that illustrates this aspect. Under utilities,
make settings for the SAPscript text display, then call up the text by choosing Periodic reposting,
Distribution, or Assessment from the menu.

KEU1 assessment cycle to PA

Hi,
After running the assessment cycle (KEU1), where can I see the amount , it is not showing any amount in value field, but if I use PA transfer strucure it shows balance in value field in PA, but i is not showing nothing in value field when I run assessment cycle, where can I see this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
After running of COPA assessment cycle sucessfully (KEU5), the amounts automatically moved to Values fields in COPA report. When you execute the copa report you will get the these figures.

Through Assessment cycle can we post costs through Primary cost Element

Can we Send the Costs from Sender Cost Center to Receiver Cost Center by using Primary Cost emlement which is created with Cost Element Category as1 and by executing Assessment Cycle (KSU5)
Thank you all

Hi Naga,
1. Do you want to transfer the cost in the Cost Element which is of category 1 OR
2. You want to use that Cost Element as a cost carrier in Assessment?
In case 1, YES, you can transter the cost
In case 2, NO, you must create secondary cost element with category 42 for this purpose.
Pls revert back for further explanation

COPA Assessment Cycle using KEU5 for multiple controlling areas

Hello All,
There is an organization with operations in several countries. There is a separate controlling area for each country. There is one controlling area, for instance, for Germany and another for Netherlands.
A problem is encountered while executing transaction KEU5 for multiple controlling areas in parallel. For instance, when one user from Germany executes KEU5 for an assessment cycle for Germany controlling area and at the same time another user from Netherlands tries to execute KEU5 for a cycle for NL controlling area, the user from Netherlands encounters an error message u201C'Cycle XXXX 01.02.2008 cannot be started because run group 0000 is locked'.
Apparently SAP allows assessment cycles for exactly one controlling area to be executed together. This poses a problem since the organization plans to implement SAP in several other countries (There will be one separate controlling area for each country as per the organization structure adopted by the company).
Any ideas, views or suggestions on the aforesaid issue would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Soumya

Hi Soumya,
Did you find any text in SAP Documentation saying that "SAP does not allow cycles belonging to different controlling areas to be executed at the same time"...?
Pls find the following text from SAP Help...
Parallel Processing of Cycles of an Allocation Type
Use
Parallel processing of cycles results in considerable time savings. To process cycles of one allocation type in parallel, they must be assigned to different cycle run groups.
You define the cycle run groups in the cycle header data. You also assign cycles to the cycle run groups in the header data.
To process the cycles of a cycle run group in parallel, start the cycles one after the other, if required, in different sessions.
You are carrying out a cross-company code cost accounting and want to perform the actual assessment in the individual company codes in parallel. Create a cycle run group for each company code and assign the appropriate cycles to these groups. You can then carry out the actual assessment in the individual company codes in parallel.
When you execute a cycle, you can start a consistency check. The system checks whether you are allowed to execute the selected cycles in parallel.
Though I didn't come across such requirement, I feel, my earlier suggestion will work out...

Assessment Cycle - Detailed Line Item Report

Hi,
The users have run the Assessment Cycle for allocation of costs from one cost center to various other Cost Centers. They now want to view the line item report, giving the details of cost allocations performed and the cost centers. Could you please advise as to how can we get this report?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ragini
Thank you so much. The Report is quite valuable in analysing the results of assessment cycle and cost allocations. (Points assigned).

Cross company code posting in assessment cycle

Friends,
I developed one assessment cycle to send from Cost center A ( company code A with USD) to Receiver cost centers B ( company code B with CAD) and Cost center C ( Company Code A and USD), When I do the assessment cycle and check the details it is showing me 100% taken out of sender and assessed to B and C. But when I check cost center report of Cost center A, the credit is not same as the debits ( i made the cycle to take out 100%). When i drilled down in the credits ( sent from assessment cost element), I see object currency to be different from transaction currency ( should be the amount that needs to be credited) even though Object and transactions currencies are in USD.
Any input on why object currency value will be different from transaction currency value even though both are in USD? Is it something because of cross company posting with different currencies? Thanks in advance

Hi,
check SAPNET note 549430 it describes the system beahivour and what you can do.

COPA Assessment Cycles and FI Period closing.

Hi Gurus,
I have question related to the COPA Assessment cycles.
We have closed the FI Period 03 and running the COPA Assessment cycles. while running the same, for few of the assesment cycles are completed and for the rest of the few cycles it is error out stating the Period is closed.
Why it is running successfully for few cycles and why it is complaining for Period closing for the others. We are on ECC 6 Version of SAP.
Error out cycles contains Cost accounts and Asset Account GL Accoutns.

Hi:
If your CO allocation has some external postings (like GL or fixed assets) or generating some intercompany documents, then it needs FI to be open also. It happens sometimes if the allocation goes external so it would need fI period to be open also. If FI is close but CO is open, it would only work for CO specific allocations and others would error out.
Please check the cycle/segment which is in error. If it is suppose to hit FI, then FI (OB52) and CO (OKP1) periods should be in sync.
Thanks.

Run PCA Assessment Cycle under New GL

I'm on ECC6.0, and I'm trying to run PCA assessment cycle using FAGLGA15, I've created the PCA assessment cycle. But I got the warning message saying " no valid sender found", I checked table FAGLFLEXA, the sender profit center has values which I posted through FB50 , anybody has encountered the same issue?
please advise.

Hi,
In NewGL, all actual data is saved under version '1' by system design. You can see this in FAGLFLEXT-RVERS.

Doubt in assessment cycle

Hi All,
I have the following doubt in assessment cycle :-
Consider the following scenario. There are three cost centres :- D015, D020 and D025 .
An assessment cycle is being created where D015 is the sender and D020, D025 are the receivers . A cost of 1,00,000 is assigned to the cost centre D015. As per the assessment cycle, the cost centres D020 and D025 will get 50% each of the cost that is assigned to cost centre D015. I created a secondary cost element 824030 and performed the assessment. After the assessment, when I reviewed the actual line item report in ksb1 transaction, I found that under cost element 824030, each of the cost centres D020 and D025 had a cost of 50,000 each . Under cost centre, D015 the net amount after the assessment was 0 .
I created another secondary cost element 825030 and performed the assessment again with 825030 as the assessment cost element, with D015 as the sender and D020, D025 as the receivers of the assessment. As per this assessment cycle too, I maintained the same percentage ratio - cost centres D020 and D025 will get 50% each of the cost assigned to cost centre D015 .
After running the second assessment cycle, when I reviewed the actual line item report in ksb1 transaction, to my surprise, I found that under cost element 825030, cost centres D020 and D025 had 50,000 each . Under D015, the net amount was 100,000 - .
My question here is after performing the first assessment, when there were no costs in D015, how did a cost of 100,000 be allocated to cost elements D020 and D025 ?
In an assessment, costs are removed from one cost centre and placed to another cost centre. When there are no costs in a cost centre, how are costs being allocated to another cost centre.

Sushanth Hulkod

Hi,
My cost elements are different in my first and second assessment. In my first assessment, my cost element is 824030 and in my second assessment, my cost element is 825030 . In both the assessments, D015 is my sender and D020, D025 are my receivers.
When I ran the cost centres : Actual / Plan / Variance Report, the output that I see is :-
Under D015 :-
                         Actual Costs            Plan Costs              Var.(Abs)           Var.(%)

Cost center Group & Assessment cycle

We are running CC reports for CC groups X and Y - Report GR55, Report group 1000 - Run in both currencies Pesos and USD by running in both currency modes.
Requirement:
1) How can we see the net balance in CC reports after assessments out = 0 in both Pesos and USD currencies.
2) Where we can see the link between Cost center Group and Assessment cycle.
Thanks,
Raju

Hi,
1) You will see the credit entries in the report after the assessment is run. Here, report should have configured in such a way, you can see both debit and credit entries.
2) If you have assigned the KSB1 Actual cost line report to the report, you can doubte click and see from which cost centers the values have flown through assessment.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!
