Relevant for Costing - Price Update

Hi,
SAP standard is offering Price Update for Inventory Costing through 'Relevant for Costing' against which price factors (50%, 75%, 25% etc.) is maintained.
1. We would like to use this to devalue the inventory values on a particular basis. What transaction do I need to execute to devalue.
2. I am using one material in BOM for SFG/FG, wherein I am entering the "Relevant for Costing' key. (50%). However, I am not able to see the result. The consumption is getting posted @ 100% rate and the cost of RM in FG is also 100%. It should have been 50% as per my understanding.
Am I missing any link. Please guide me to resolve this issue.

Hi Swapvik,
Pls check in your Costing Variant--> Valuation Variant --> Price Factors..
Here, Costing Relevancy is "X" for which you need to maintain your Price Factors. Pls check your entry and let me know..

Actual Costing: Alternative valuation : "Relevant for Costing" indicator

Hi:
We are using alternative valuation in our Actual Costing
We would like to know the use of the "Relevant for Costing" indicator. (XPCP field).
Documentation said: "If you set this indicator, the results of the alternative valuation run can be used in the standard cost estimate for the material." But there is not a clear explanation in the online doc or other info sites.
How does it works? What is the exact meaning of "can be used in Standard cost estimate"?
How can we get these values from Product Cost planning?
Best Regards:
Manuel

Manuel,
If that Field is checked, it should update the Planned Price in the Costing 2 Tab of the Material Master Record. I did not try this though.

Reversal of Cost Price Update and Price Change MR21

Dear SAP experts
Recently (on 1st of this month) i did cost price update for all my FIG items. Later i realized that some of FG items cost price was not accurate. So i want to delete cost price of those items and update price by using T code MR 21
When i try to cancel these items cost price by using T code CKR1, i am getting error message that particular material current or future standard price is avialable and i am unable to move further
Please guide how to delete current cost price of these items and update cost price by using MR21. Please note these items does not have any BOM and basically are contract manufacturing items
Thanks in advance

Hi Vedsai
When you use CKR1, it does not give error.. It just gives a warning message
Enter your Plant / Mat in CKr1 and select "Current cost estimate" or "Future Cost Estimate" as the case may be
If any warning comes, ignore it and press enter.... It should reverse the cost estimate
Now update from MR21 or preferably use CK11N again
Note: If at all it gives any error in CKR1, check in T code OPR4_CK if this msg can be converted into warning message

Standard cost price update

Can anybody tell me in details the logic behind the standard cost price update.
Regards
Amitava

Hi.
1.After did the cost estimate in ck11n . you need to update the cost for the current period. then only it will update in the MM02 under the costing view.
2.In the update the costing , 2 steps need to do
a. MARK the costing . give the period for which you need to mark the costing. and execute in ck24
if you done . the price will update for the future period . you can see this in the MM02 under costing view / std costs
It means thats you do calculate and mark the cost but it will show in the future period in MM02 COSTING VIEW. . but you are not release this cost as the current period cost. so you are still in the old period costing only.
b. RELEASE the costing in ck24 itself. If you release the costing , then the costing will be show in the current period in mm02.

Change of Costing Variant in Marking Allowance for CK24 price update

Dear All,
In CK24, price updation previously i had selected one costing variant for one particular material and released the standard price. Now, I am trying to do price update for a different material for which I used different costing variant for doing the material cost estimate. Now when I am going to Marking Allowance in CK24 for that particular company code the previous costing variant is only displaying. But now for the current material that is not the costing variant for which i need price updation. It is just displaying the old costing variant.
Please let me know how to change the costing variant for the same period.

Hi Srikanth,
1. IMG: Logistics - General, Retail Pricing
Define list variant and assign items
              Enhance or create a new list variant with list field VKP01
2. IMG: Logistics - General, Retail Pricing
Texts for list fields
              Adjust the text for the list field, for example, PP old
3. Define a new SD condition type ZEKA, for example as a copy of VKP0 (Transaction V/06)
              You can create this new condition either as a separate condition or if it is always determined together with, for example VKP0, you can define it as a condition supplement of VKP0. You achieve this by not assigning an access sequence to ZEKA but including it in the condition supplement schema (schema VKP000 in the standard system) instead. In addition, assign the supplement schema of the main condition (master data subscreen, for example schema VKP000). The main condition must be contained in the calculation schema used so that the condition supplements can be found.
4. Insert the new condition type ZEKA in the sales price calculation schema (Transaction V/08)
              Enhance the schema (assignment per pricing type) with the new condition ZEKA. In the standard system, we deliver schema WWS001 and WWS002. You can insert ZEKA at the end of the schema as a statistical condition.
5. IMG: Logistics - General, Retail Pricing
Control - control per list field, allowed costing levels
              For the sales price calculation schema used, you must set control parameters for the list fields EKPNN and VKP01.
List field EKPNN: In the lower subscreen (Saving list fields in master conditions) enter the new condition type ZEKA (application V). If the new condition type has an access sequence, that is, it is not used as a condition supplement, then you must specify in screen 'Allowed pricing levels' the condition tables in which ZEKA should be stored.
List field VKP01: In the mid subscreen (Transport calculating schema data for list field), specify ZEKA as SP condition type.
Note: if you want to send ZEKA for example in the assortment list as a condition, then you must also enhance the schema for calculating the sales price (VKP001, VKP002 or VKP003 in the standard system) with ZEKA.
If still not working ping me,

Cost price update

Hi guys
i have a problem in updating cost price for all finished goods
we set in MM for all Raw Materials, process chemcials and packaging materials as moving average price and semi and finished goods items as standard
our raw material and packaging items changes prices once in a month based on international market prices. when we started SAP we updated these items prices and that price showing standard price field.
now when i updated FG cost price it is taking standard price cost for BOM and updating cost price and is not giving accurate costing. everymonth cost price is same since it is not taking moving average field price which is correct one
so guide me everymonth how to replace standard price field with moving average price field in MM so that cost price of the finished product will be accurate
total items are more than 4000 so please do not guide me to change manually by using MR21
Regards
Ved sai dut

Hi Ved,
Please check the priority of strategy sequence in the Valuation variant assigned to your Costing variant in Tcode OKKN. The first priority might have been set to standard price. So, Change it to 'Moving average price' and the system will read the prices in the Moving average price field in the material master.
You DO NOT have to use MR21 or change any material prices or use material ledger. If you set the priority to moving average price, the system automatically reads those prices in the BOM items while costing.
Hope this should resolve your issue.
Regards,
Vishnu.

Costing Price updation

Hi all,
In all the below options, which price is updated in costing tab while saving Production order or Sales Order ? i.e. standard price or moving average price.
Case 1:- Valuation variant has "standard Price" for Material valuation
Option A): Procurement Type is E; Price control in Material Master is S
Option B): Procurement Type is F; Price control in Material Master is S
Option C): Procurement Type is E; Price control in Material Master is V
Option D): Procurement Type is F; Price control in Material Master is V
Case 2:- Valuation variant has "MAP" for Material valuation
Option A): Procurement Type is E; Price control in Material Master is S
Option B): Procurement Type is F; Price control in Material Master is S
Option C): Procurement Type is E; Price control in Material Master is V
Option D): Procurement Type is F; Price control in Material Master is V
Regards,
Vaibhav Gawade

Hi,
Procurement type (E, F, etc.) will have impact only up to the calculation of the cost. It will not play any thing for Price update.
The below link may help you for getting an idea for the Material Valuation with Price Control as Standard and Moving Average price.

Issue in creating Invoice when route is not relevant for shipment cost.

Dear All,
We are facing a problem while creating an Invoice. The route used in shipment in not relevant for shipment costing. Shipment type is relevant for costing. So in normal scenario if I don't remove the tick mark from "Shipment cost relanace" at shipment type and proceed with Invoicing I get error as " SHipment costing is not complete", which is correct. The scenario works well if item/s in delivery are not batch split.
But, if items in delivery are batch split and "shipment cost relevance" check is not removed from shipment type then, only batch split items get copied in invoice. Header item is deleted and invoice gets saved, which should not happen.I don't get error in this scenario.
How should I make the error in invocie work in case of batch split items also? Could anyone please let me know?
Thanks!

Dear Manmeet Mohan K,
Can you please check the copy controls in between delivery document to invoice(VTFL)
Thanks&Regards

Selection indicator for costing line items in production order

Dear all,
Do anyone know how to change field "AFVGD-SELKZ" of operation inside producion order? Any user-exit or standard program?
As content of field "AFVGD-SELKZ" is carried from routing. But is it possible to change in production order level?
Please kindly adivce.
Cheers,
Karen

Karen,
Let me give some more additional inputs, for an operation to become relevant for costing there are 2 options.
1. As Ramanujam suggested - Control Key.
2. In the Routing operation details you have a field to mark an <b>operation costing relevant this field takes priority over control key in defining the costing</b>. This field can be found in the operation details - General Data section of routing.
<b>Some tricks,</b>
What i mean here is a control key may not be relevant for costing, but still if this field is marked as costing relevant or percentage costs then this is the priority.
if this field is marked not relevant for costing and if the operation has a control key relevant for costing then in this case control key takes priority.
In short what i meant is that you need to consider both "Control key" as well as the operation costing relevancy defination field.
Hope this helps your understanding in resolving your problem....Reward your points if so,

Prasobh

Relevancy to costing

Hi,
I entered a component in the order and in general data maintained "1 Not relevant for costing"
When i do Goods issue to order both the planned costs and Actual costs are appearing
So What is the meaning of "Not relevant for costing" and where the costing does not take place ?
Thanks & Regards
Alagesan M

Hi,
As thyagarajan told, Not relevant for Costing is applicable only for plan costs.
Once you assign the material, before releasing or saving the order, change that Costing Relevancy. This is nothing to do with Material Master.
This is order based setting as this field is applicable for Order costing.

Cost price Problem for repair FG.

hi,
Business scierio-
Mat "A' Done GR aginst Production order, Now the Same FG undergone the repair, we use to do Creating New FG Mat "B" and making old FG (mat "A") as a component of Mat "B" .
Note- for every FG we having the BOM (universal).
Now the Problem is- Components used in Mat "A" having Valution is MAP (CP), but the FG Valuation is Standard price (Selling Price).
During issue of Mat "A" to floor the selling price get updating in the cost price GL account During repair process.
What should i do to get the actual Cost price for Mat B.
Is it require to change the valuation of the Old FG i,e Mat "A" in to actual Cost Price before issuing to floor?
Waiting for reply
Veera.

While creating cost estimate with Qty Structure, first BOM is exploded by the system & prices are picked up from material master as per this sequence.
Ideally, the 1st preference should be - valuation according to price control in MM.
so that if a material is valued at MAP, it's MAP will be picked up for costing & if valued at Std Price, it's std price will be picked up.
In your case 1st it will check for Planned Price 1. If the system finds a value in the Planned price 1 field (costing view), this value is taken as the value for valuating the material & so on.

Amol

Table for Valuation Price from USER EXIT - Cost Estimation

Hi All,
Can you let us know from where the system picks the price for VALUATION PRICE from USER EXIT when we have following setting in valuation variant
1.Valuation Price from USER EXIT
2.Price from Purchasing Info Records
3. Planned Price 1
Sub Stratergy.
1.Effective Price from Purchase Order
2. Net Quotation Price
3. Gross Quotation Price.
Now when we execute CK11N for a material, the system displays a cost price as 316 Euro/ unit.
But Standard price is 290 euros, info record price is 294 euros & planned price 304 euros.
Our previous cost estimation ( period 1, current period is 5) was 316 euro/unit (which was not correct), so deleted the cost estimation with CKR1 and try to rerun the cost estimation to update the value (new price), but still the system is picking the old price.
Can you let us know from where does(transaction code & table) the system is picking the old values.
In CK11N Material valuation (Valuation tab) its showing as Valuation Price from USER EXIT.
We have activated Material Ledger with price control "s"and we in ECC 6.0.
Do suggest.

Hi,
Where & how can i find the exit.
Do suggest.

Price update step in Costing run to other prices probelm - Very urgent ...

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me why does it updates only 1100 materials prices to commercial price though costing has been carried for 7900 materials? I have selected the price to be updated to commercial price 1 and as said above only 1100 only are shown under materials and 6800 materials are shown as still open in my costing run
I have looked into it, it appears to me that its becos of materials without quantity structure, their prices are not getting update to other prices
If anyone has any clue or infact a solution for this issue, please do help me
Thanks in advance
Kumar

Hi Suraj,
thanks a lot for ur quick reply. I think ur reply has answered most of my question, however in my costing run I have selected all the materials in my plant, meaning the materials which are purchased (no quantity structure/raw materials)also. So from ur reply I understand that for the raw materials or materials with no qnty structure the prices are not updated in the material master to other prices but, if it is a std cost estimate, mark, release process then it updates the future, current stnd prices right?
Please confirm me on that, bcos I have used a different costing variant from a regular one that I use for std cost est. I have defined the variant with costing type "ad hoc for commercial price" and with update as "other than std price". I want to make sure is the problem discussed above is due to my costing variant customization or is it bcos in price update function materials with no qnty sturcture are not updated in material master?
Your help is highly appreciated
Regards,
Kumar
