Sales Order cost estimate with variant config

Hi
I'm hoping for some advice on costing on a variant material.
I have created a sales order for a variant material and ran a cost estimate to get costs for the sales order. Should this populate a cost condition within the sales order pricing? How can the margin be seen in the sales order?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Ashley
Yes, if you have done your settings correctly, especially Requirements class set up (see the documentation link), then the cost estimate will flow to a condition type in Pricing, usually EK01/EK02 conditions. These conditions are used to calculate sales prices (PR00) in cost-plus (mark-up) scenarios.

However Profit margin as calculated in a sales order comes from VPRS condition (which is based in Material Master) and is the difference of net value and VPRS condition value in normal circumstance.
Hope other more knowledgeable experts will weigh in.

But with maintaining the GIT how to achieve the sales order cost estimate.
I tried to create CE category 90 for GIT, in Cost estimate am getting error CE 90 not supported for Cost estimate.
Kindly help this is kind of urgent req for us

Sales Order Cost Estimates -- Versions?

In our MTS plant we are creating cost estimates each month with different version numbers so they can easily be compared to review cost changes.
This concept in our MTO plant is (of course) a problem.
We would like to create a dummy sales order and on each line list a KMAT and build an "average" configuration. We use variant config, so the sales order bom is built automatically. It also costs automatically. We would like to save this cost estimate and compare it with a cost estimate of the same configuration next month. I do not have an option for version CK51n, nor do I see a Costing Date in KEKO table. Either of these items for MTS would create a second cost estimat and allow comparison.
Is there a way to compare Sale Order Cost Estimates across periods?
Any other suggestions as to how to obtain the required data??
Thank you for all suggestions!!

Any one think of a solution?
thanks

Sales order cost estimate

hi,
While saving the sales order cost estimate its getting the GL account from GBB-ZG0.
as we assigned Balance sheet account its asking the cost element.
can you please explain what is link to get the gl from GBB-ZGO, can we change this to pick from GBB-VBR.
Thanks,
Sudha

Hi,
Are you are working with unvaluated special stock ? In this case, the system is looking for a consumption account via the account assignment category. For example if you are using requirement class ZPJ which uses account assignment category Q. In account assignment Q, you entered account modification VBR. Therefore, the system is looking for an account via the keys GBB / VBR.

Sales order cost estimate not happening because of GIT B/S account

Hi,
Requirement is to have Goods in Transit account in PGI and reverse it in Invoice no issues iwth it.
For the same sales order user wants to get cost using sales order cost estimate.
When i run that am getting following error
Item 00001 : Cost element 14001212 does not exist in CO area 0010 for 10/07/2011
Message no. KK689
Even though i maintain the CE for Balance sheet account with Cost element category 90 its not accpeting.
Can you please help me on how to proceed for sales order cost estimate.
Thanks,
sudha

hi,
if you give a balance sheet account in obyc , you will not be able to create a cost elementin category 01 , accordignly system will give error in sales order costing , as its not able to get correct cost element in cost planning.
if your requirement is just to post cogs to a balance sheet account which is goods in transit and when invoice is done cogs to be posted.
you should actually use revenue based RA functionality on sales order instead of assinging a balance sheet account in obyc.
in this approach;
- first assign a p/l account in obyc and create cost element in cateogry 01.
- create revenue based RA and assign RA key in requirement class.
- in OKG8 for RA category WIPR and your ra key assign , goods in transit account and give a offsetting account which is not cost element (credit entry in offsetting account nullify debit in account given in OBYC when GIT is posted , when billing is done system will automatically post a oppsite entry in both account).
-in OKG8 for RA category COSR give the COGS account and a offsetting account without cost element (credit entry in offsetting account nullify debit in account given in OBYC when COGS is posted).

Sale Order Cost Estimate

Hi,
We have maintained Material BOM (usage 1) as well as Sale Order BOM (usage 5).
When we run the Sales Order Cost estimate, which BOM would be picked for costing the sales order.

Hi,
The issue is not with respect to selection of the Sale order BOM or routing. System is correctly selecting the specific BOM and routing for costing.
However, when we display the sale order cost estimate, when we navigate to the Qty Struc tab and double click on the sale order BOM or Routing Group, it does not take me to the specific Sale Order BOM.
Please suggest.

Sales order cost estimate to be updated in Info Record (ME11)

Hi,
We have two plants: (a) Sales plant and (b) Manufacturing Plant.
At sales plant, sales order (external) is created and for same external sales order we create another sales order (internal) at the manufacturing plant.
At the manufacturing plant we have the option of doing sales order cost estimate (VA02/ CK51N).
We want to update info record (ME11) at sales plant with sales order cost estiamte value at the manufacturing plant. How this is possible? please suggest.
Regards,
Bijay

Hi
Ask your SD guy which routine is used during the pricing.. You need to write ABAP code in the routine in order to fetch the values from the Sales Order cost estimate
usually, the sales order cost estimate is stored in EK02 condition type... You can read the value from EK02 cond type in Mfg plant and update it in Sales plant

AFS grid value/valuation type not picked in sales order cost estimate

Hi Experts,
We have different valuation types in the material master. This is part of the AFS, where each grid value is a valuation type. While making a sales order cost estimate and in one sales order item, we have 3 grid values (valuation types), system is costing only for one grid value and that too for the entire quantity. This way the costing is wrong as different grid values have different BOMs and routings.
Is there any specific setting to have the grid value to be picked up in the sales order cost estimate? Or am i missing some setting? in general product costing settings or AFS product costing settings?
Best Regards
Vimal

WBS planned cost in Sales order cost estimate

HI Experts,
Can you please help me in below:
Will it be possible to include WBS planned cost in Sales order cost estimate.
ETO Scenario
Creating Project and booking planned cost
Creating Sales order and assigned the WBS at line item level
WHen i do the sales order cost estimate it calculating cost from Sales order BOM includeing Chars value for KMAT.
I want to know if there is any way to include the WBS planned cost also in the sale order cost estimate.
Can anyonce please provide inputs.
Thanks,
Sudha

Hi Sudha
Are you saying the WBS Planned cost is in addition to the Sales Order cost estimate? Well, as far as I know, there is no such possibility
you can use Unit Costing feature in Req Class instead of Quantity Structure Based Costing... Then you can enter whatever items you want

CATS vs. Sales order cost estimate

Hi Gurus,
If I sent some hours to the sales order item thru CATS, can I have them in the sales order cost estimate?
Thanks
g

Thanks.
So the one way to have CATS hours in sales order cost estimate is somehow squeeze these hours into the sales order BOM, init?
What is the best way to do? Plan it in the routing and put the actual hours thru CATS into the production order? Or some other way?
Regards

Sales Order costing error to prevent Plan Order generation in MRP run

Dear PP Experts,
We are into sales order costing due to Variant Config implementation.
Problem Statement: After sales order entry /Characterisitc value selection, while saving sales order , SO costing is auto triggered. Many a times one of the new Raw material price is not maintained( Purchase info record), hence SO costing occurs. SO costing is still saved, SO incompletion is not configured , so it is detected when Production order has 'No Target Cost'. This creates inconsistancy in FI postings.
My questions
- Can we set SO imcompletion for SO costing error( Standard Config?)
- Is there a enhancement to prevent MRP from processing Sales order with incompletion log i.e. Prevent MRP from generating Plan Order.
Best Regards,
Jatin

Hello Jatin
You can use BAdI MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA to make the sales order not relevant to MRP.
Check the following document for an overview of the BAdIs available on MRP:
