Settlement of Cost Center And Production Order Variance

Dear All
I have just started to learn SAP Controlling. I am able to get hold of some materials on Controlling. May I request the experenced forum memebers to please explain the following
1. How data flows from FI to CO and PA
2. When cost center and production orders are settled, how the variance are settled and which accounts/ modules get effected
and a source where I can get some material on this topic. Your immediate replies and valuable peice of advice will help me a lot
Thanks

Cost center to production order

hi friends
i have material cost on a cost centere A, i want to allocate thru assessment cycle from cost center to production orders. when i enter production order nummbers in ksu1 in allocation cycle as receiver, system give an error that it is "No valid receiver enteries exist".
sapians

Hi,
You have to check two things before executing this assessment cycle.
1. Check the allocation structure whether you have assigned the assessment cost element and
settlement of cost element to ORD (ticked in by cost element box).
2. In KSU7 you have filled the allocation structure field and received field and tracing factors.
Have a check of the cycle before saving.

PM Order Settlement to Cost Center(real) & Internal Order simultaneously

Dear Experts.
I have a request from client to settle 100% of PM order to Cost Center (real) and internal order (statistical) simultaneously. The purpose of statistical orders is to capture all the expenses (electricity, water, security charges, maintenance, etc...) location-wise.
PM Order settlement through statistical IO will contribute to the maintenance aspect, and other expenses will be captured to statistical IO through financial GL posting. Hence each location will have a unique statistical order maintained.
In the settlement Profile, I have maintained Order and Cost Center elements as "Settlement Optional" Under "Valid receivers". But the system doesn't allow this settlement. As per my understanding SAP allows settlement (100%) to go only to a single object.
Appreciate your inputs on this matter.
Thanks,
thushantha.

hi,
Please check how you maintained the real object in the settlement rule.
You must maintain both the cost center and internal order on the same assignment line such as:
CAT:     Settlement receivers
ORD      ORD_Number   Cst_Center_number         100%   PER
The system will correctly generate KI178 if you have the following:
CAT:     Settlement receivers
ORD      ORD_Number                              100%   PER
CTR      Cst_Center_number                       100%   FUL

Report showing total costs pr. cost center and internal order..

Hi FI Gurus,
Do any of you know a standard report, which can display G/L, Company code, Period, total cost in local currency, cost center and internal order. The report should be at summarizational levet (not line items) and we should be able to sum costs at cost center and internal order.
Finally we should also be able to transfer the report to BI via an extractor etc.
Thanks for you help

Cost center for Production Order

Hi all,
We are now not able to get a report of Material consumption cost, Cost center wise. It is Because cost center is not linked to Production order or not linked to material issued to production order. Can we get the cost of material cosumption for production order cost center wise. Please give us a solution.
With Regards,
R.Mahendiran.

Hi,
Prod order is linked with controlling, for the direct costs like material cost linked with accounting view, costing view and secondary costs are linked with costing tab in work center and inturn workcenter is assigned to cost center, and for the prod order controlling part you will be assigned to the costing variant in transaction OPL8, if you remove this you can't get any reports.
To understand the difference
201 - Goods issue against cost center. Means you create reservation through MB21 and do posting of cost directly at cost center.
261 - Goods issue to Production order. Means you create a reservation through Production order and do posting of cost to Production order. When cost settlement of production order is done cost from production order will get transfered to cost center mentioned in settlement rule of production order.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.

KO88 - Error when settling for Cost Center AND Auc for the same Internal Or

Hi Experts,
We need to configure Investment Internal Orders that could settle to both Cost Center and Auc, but each assignments with different Source Cost Elements
We did the following:
1. Created Auc Class
2. Created Investment Profile "IMOBIL" and assigned to Auc Class, flagging Auc
3. Created Allocation Structure "CV" with two assignments:
01, Source = Cost elements 7000000000 to 7999999999, receiver AUC "by cost element"
02 Source = Cost elements 4000000000 to 4999999999, receiver CTR "by cost element"
4. Created Model Order, filling the Investment Profile IMOBIL created in step 2.
5 Created Settlement Profile ZCV0001, assigning Allocation Strucutre CV, allowing CTR and AUC for receivers, default receiver is "FXA", doc type "AA".
6 Created ORder Type CV01, assigning Settlement Profile ZCV0001.
When I post only for Asset Expenses (Source Cost element 7, Assigment 01), the settlement through KO88 correctly settles to AUC, and also creates the settlement rule for cost center (i'm using the strategy to create from Responsible Cost Center).
But when I post for Asset Expenses (cost elements 7, receiver AUC) AND General Expenses (Source Cost element 4, receiver CTR), KO88 generates an error KD506, saying that for Assigment 02 - AUC I didnt define a settlement cost element.
1. Assignment 02 is not AUC, is CTR;
2. I flagged "by cost element", so I don't need a settlement cost element. And also, I was able to post to AUC when the source posting was only for cost element 7.
Did you face any problem like this?
I cannot find out what is the missing configuration, or if it is a program error...
Kind Regards
Mayumi Blak

Hi Ajay
I already created Source Structure and assigned to my Setllement profile (so I assigned Allocation Structure AND Source Structure).
I don't understand when you say that I need to assign the Source Sutrcture in each rule....because the Source structure is in the Settlement Parameters valid for both rules...
When I post to Asset Expenses only for the internal Order, the 2 rules (CTR and AUC) are created when I run KO88 (but only AUC rule is settled). This is OK.
The problem is when I post for both General Expenses AND Asset Expenses, the system is not recognizing that I have 2 source structures, neither is findind that for CTR AND AUC the Settlement cost elements are the original cost elements.
I'm thinking about changing message KD506 to warning, do you know if this can help?
Kind Regards

Cost Center and Internal Order report

Hi,
We are trying to design an account structure using Cost centers and statistical Internal orders. So any invoice would be booked on REAL Cost Center and a STATISTICAL Internal Order. Can I pull up a report based on the cost center and also the internal order?
Our other requirement is to report the values on the statistical internal order along with the values on a profit center ( can be any profit center belonging to the company). Is there any way to develop a report using special purpose ledger or ABAP that can achieve this requirement.
Any help on this issue will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkat

In t code KOB1 - Order line items, you will get details of cost center as well. For this you need to display field Aux. acct assignment_1.

Assessment of Cost center to Production orders

Hi,
I would like to run assessment of overhead costs of Production Departament to production orders.
However, I get such warning message when creating the cycle:
"System error: An invalid transaction was used to check whether or not a business transaction is allowed. The transaction Assessment of Overhead costs is not allowed for object type 'Production order'"
"You cannot carry out the requested function for object ZL. 10000001.
Procedure
Please contact your system administrator."
What settings are needed to allow assessment to production orders. I heard that it is possible to make an assessment of CC to production orders.
Best wishes,
Karol

Hi,
I managed to activate assessment to Production orders in BS12.
I activated business transactiun RKIU for PP orders object.
Now it's possible to allocate costs from Production Department CC to production orders.
However, I have some problem of other nature.
When I do the standard price calculation - the Overhead costs from Production Departament CC are calculated as % overhead using costing sheet. It is done by cost element with cost element ctg 41.
The actual Production Departament CC overheads are allocated using assessment. Other cost element with cost element category 42 is being used here.
How will the system calculate production variances in this case?
Do u think it is possible to match these two different cost elements?
Will this CE with 41 ctg be considered during variances calculation and if yes - which variance category will it be.
I am uncertain about that, cause in normal cases - activitity CE or materials consumption CE are the same in actual and target. In my case overhead CE are different in actual and in target.
Can u help me with that?
Best wishes,
Karol

Plant maintenance order settlement to cost center

Hi,
I have a requirement from the client that PM order costs should be settled to Cost center (real) and credit the order line with statistical cost center.
1. Consumables GL is debited at the time of goods issue with refrence to PM order , cost center is not updating in this line item
2. Settlement rule maintained as cost center receiver which is mentioned in the PM order and after settlement consumables GL is getting credited with Order and debit to cost center mentioned in settlement rule , statistical cost center is not updating in credit line
My client requirement is
Statistical cost center should update along with Maintenance order at the time of goods issue for consumables GL (Debit)
Statistical cost center should update along with maintenance order at the time of settlement for PM order (Consumables GL credit with statistical cost center and maintenance order and the same GL debit with settlement receiver cost center (real)).
If i provide cost center in account assignment at the time of Goods issue , system is updating the cost center along with order , however at the time of settlement both cost center and order are not updating in credt line item and the cost is lying in the order without settling.
Please advise any configuration setting or user exit to meet the above requirement.
Thanks,
Sreedhar

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for the update.
If i give the cost center in acct assignment in MB1A it is taking , is there is any option to default the cost center either from PM order or thru some other setting.
I have tried both substitution and OKB9 , however system is not defaulting the cost center from this settings.
Please let me know if there is any other option to default the cost center in MB1A.
Thanks,

Restriction for cost center and IO

PL account 520000 to 520010 is restricted to post to IO and cost center together, how to design CO validation and show error messgae, for example, 520010 can only be posted to IO or cost center, but can't be post to both cost center and IO.
do we need user exit?
thanks

TC: OB28. Environment->validation.
Create a new validation under "Line Item" section.
Attach step 1 under the new validation.
prerequisite: (g/l account no>=520000 and g/l account no < 520010)
check: cost center="" or order =""
message: type "E", message text could be like "account no &1 must be assigned both cost center and internal order"
Attach step 2 under the new validation
prerequisite: g/l account no=520010
check: (cost center="" and order="") or (cost center not equal to "" and order not equal to "")
message: type "E", message text could be like "account no 520010 must be assigned either cost center or internal order"

Varaince settlement and costing sheet in REM and Production order

for REM, repetetive manufacturing, what's the difference between REM and production order in terms of variance settlement and settlement profile design? what's the difference between process order and production order in terms of variance settlement and settlement profile design?
for actual overhead(fixed and variable), can it be calculated automatically by costing sheet? user is very angry to input actual overhead by jounal entry. also how about plan scrap, how to define it in configuration? besides order confirmation, where can I input actual scrap?

For variances, there is no difference between the 3 diferrent orders. The settlement profile can also be the same. The real difference from a CO perspective concerns the calculation of WIP and the settlement rule. Process orders and production orders normally use a full settlement rule (though periodic settlement is also possible) and WIP is calculated based on actual cost. Repetitive orders only use periodic settlement and WIP is valued at target cost.
From an overhead perspective, there is no difference between the 3 types of orders. Overhead sheets are assigned through the costing variant and costs are applied through period-end process.
Plan scrap is maintained in master data, either in material master, routing (receipe for process orders), or bill of material. Acttual scrap usually happens based on the quantity of components issued to the order during confirmation or by the amount of scrap reported during confirmation. If you are backflushing components, as you normally would do for repetitive, then you can adjusted the consumed quantities by doing an additional goods issue to the order (movement type 261).

Production order variance settlement to cost centers/internal order

Hi,
I am looking to configure the settlement of production order variances to cost centers/internal order. Is there a way to do this in the settlement profile. Would appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Ram

OKO7 will allow you to configure the Settlement Profile by selecting valid receivers.
This should be done with/or by FICO.
Then test, test, test
