Six activity types in a Resource but require more splits

Hi,
We got a limitation on the number of activity types to be assigned to the resource(work center) as such there shall be limitation on the splitting of Costs in cost component structure as well. So to tide over the difficulty, We can have one more dummy resource for utilities for assigning another six more activity types.
But without this arrangement of having extra resource, how template allocation aid in this. Pl explain in detail. Is there any way other than template allocation?. To be precise in my query, we need to use activity type for machine hour for splitting Repair & maintenance exp and Factory admn expenses, etc.
For your kind info, I do not want to use costing sheet due to its limitations.
Regards,
Ashok Singh

Hi Ashok
There is a way... Take your PP consultant for a good dinner at a Five Star Hotel
Well, I had to face a similar situation and the PP guys had a lot of reservation against confirming an extra operation... What we agreed to was as below
1. I made them agree to maintain a 2nd operationin Routing...
2. PP guys wont confirm this operation... This would be confirmed in a batch mode at the period end.... However, in my case, the activity qty in 2nd operation was based on a formula i.e. based on the Qty confirmed in the 1st operation....
If you wish to adopt this approach, you may have to confirm the Standard Qty....
3. The solution was that I used BAPI BAPI_PRODORDCONF_CREATE_TT... I created a Z T code which would execute Date / Plant wise....
I gave all the options like executing in test mode first... checking the result and then posting in update mode
It would confirm the 2nd op in all those Prod Orders in which 1st operation was confirmed.... Ofcourse, it took 2-4 months to stabilize.... But now, it is running smoothly for over 2 yrs

  • CRC3 shows six activity type

    I want to confirm eight activity type in order confirmation, do i need to use 2 orders? because CRC3 only allow six activity types.
    any better solution? thanks
    I was given eighty process order which are already confirmed, is there any report which can show activity confirmation hours for these orders and then download to excel?

    In Process Industries you need to add setup as standard value, in order to calculate costs for this activity.
    The activities you can confirm in a phase are related to the standard value key of the resource of the phase / operation.
    So, if there are 8 or 9 different activities, you should need to define two different standard value keys
    first , for activities 1 to 6
    second for the 7th and 8th activity.
    Crete two resources, the main wiht the first SVK and the sceondary with the second.
    Use both in the master recipe / order , in the same phase, the second as secondary resource. You will confirm up to 12 activities.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to Book Activity Type to the Cost Center

    Hi Guys
    How should I put Activity type and a value to it in the cost center.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Use T.code KP26.
    Here enter the version as '0' & then enter the activity type, cost center & then click the overview icon in the top.
    A new screen will appear, here you can enter the fixed/vairable price.
    This activity type is to be assigned in the work center (T.code cr02), costing tab.
    Hope this helps, pl. reward.

  • Resource - cost center - activity type

    Hello,
    I can see the link Resource - Cost center  (in the resource master data)
    I can see the link Activity type - cost element
    I can see where the activity type's planned cost is done, for such or such cost center
    I cannot see the relationship Resource - Activity type
    isn't there any direct link or is it only an indirect link, through the cost center
    Thanks for your help

    I need to post 2 diferent type of costs to 2 different accounts (cost elements) my question is what impact is if I mantain in one resource with cost center 1000 2 activity types, one is also linked to CC 1000 but the 2nd is linked to CC 2000
    In the costing tab at the Resource there is a field for the cost center so my question is what are de implication with this cost center and the link between the activity types and the cost centers
    you can maintain 2 cost element for two activity.
    But you can't combine two cc in one resource
    then you need to create two resource, one with cc 1000 and other with cc 2000,
    the second question is, I have to maintain these 2 different cost at the time of confirmation, Is it correct that I mantain the cost of an HOUR in KP26 so when the confirmation happens I just have to say in COR6N that 15 hours were used so based on rate given in KP26 system will calculate and allocate that cost properly, Is this how it works?
    as per the formula in OP54, assigned in resource with respect to activity.
    at the time of actual booking, system will calculate the actual cost of the activity ( as per the formula maintained in resource)
    Also I want to ask if like the activity described before I can have 2 of these attached to the same work center and same phase? I know I can have up to six per Resource but how is the confirmation done, in one step at COR6N you give the 6 parameters to each of the activities or you have to go one by one and saving in this transaction??
    In resource for each activity ( parameter) you need to assign formula and activity type, while creating process, system will copy all the parameter and formula in process order, while booking  in cor6n system will copy all the parameter.

  • Multi Resource Scheduling MRS - How to exclude certain Maint Activity Types

    is there a way to exclude orders that have a specific maintenance activity type.  We have standing work orders that in reality we should not have appear on the planning board.  Well, we really shouldn't have any standing orders but we do.
    Has anyone had this issue and been able to solve it.   thanks, Linda

    While a lot of MRS configuration includes maintenance activity type as a way to refine the circumstances in which something occurs (e.g., stretched assignments), that is not the case for defining which demands will be brought into MRS.  However, while not positive, I believe "BAdI:  Integration of Maintenance/Service Order with MRS (ERP)" can be used for this purpose.

  • Postings are made to old activity type but not new in Process Order.

    Hi friends,
    We have created old activity type and assigned. However, the postings are made to old actity type.  There is no plan price for new activity type.
    So please suggest whether I missed any thing here.
    Thanks,

    Your information is very vague, and incomplete.
    I assume you created a new acivity type, and not an old one? Where did you assign it? KP26, KP06, C203?
    Did you recalculate your plan activity prices? KSPI. Download new qties? KSPP....

  • No costing Sheets But activity types

    One of my client is implementing overhead costs without using costing sheets instead they are using activity types Can any body could brief me how this could be possible?
    Points would be awarded
    Thanks in advance

    as mentioned in my last response:
    Or you can have two activity types : LAB and LABOH
    price each one with the desired rate
    The costing formula in the workcenter whould have LABOH use the same field (LABOR HOURS) as LAB uses.
    In transaction OP54 my labor formula (SAP007 in the work center) Is:
    SAP_03 * SAP_09 / SAP_08   which means:
    Labor * Operation quantity / Base quantity
    I use the same formula for overhead -  so that it uses labor hours
    this means that a confiramtion of labor hours will supply the labor hours for OH calculation

  • Activity types - resource related billing

    Hi,
    I am not much aware of Controlling areas. I would like to know how the rates are determined for the number of hours entered in the time sheets for time writing.iIcame to know that it's done using activity types. Could anyone explain me what are activity types and in which transaction we maintain the rates.
    Thanks and regards
    Aparna

    Hi Aparna,
    Activity types are those which we plan for Production Process. For example for manufacturing the product we need labour hours, machine hours, Setup hours etc this r the activities which we plan while running the production process.
    We plan this activities in t-code KP26, By taking cost center and actvity types.

  • 1th Activity type confirmed copy value into 2th Activity type:

    Hi  Gurus.,
    I had a problem in production order confirmed (PP-PI), COR6 transaction
    I need what 1th Activity type confirmed (value) are copied in 2th Activitiy type cofirmed inside the one order production, so, both value corfimed are equal and the same time, I had customization all the parameters in resources who standard value key, Formule for processing capacity requirements in concordance with standard value key and the calculation of costs of a work center's activity type.
    But in the cofirmation Activity (COR6) the user´s key put Quantity in first Activity manually and execute (enter), and this first quantity activity don´t population the second field activity type.
    Insite the Resource the costs formule is:
    Activity type one:  ZPP001
    Activity type two:  ZPP001
    Capacity calculation formule: ZPP001.
    What happen about this fault?
    Best Regards.,
    Julio César Villegas

    Hi,
    You do not get Second Activity same as first Activity in this scenario.
    When we give value in First Activity manually for say about 10 Hrs, it doesn't copy to Second Activity.
    As you said Activity 1 and Activity 2 are have same activity types and formulaes then also it will take Actual Values from Master Recipe and will be displayed.
    If you want to achieve your requirement you should get ABAP help to write Program. you can use Enhancement.

  • Confirmation of activity types in CO11N

    Dear Experts,
    I have a small issue, while confirmation of production order in CO11N the activity type for the actual quantity is confirming but our requirement is that if we are confirming the half quantity means partial quantity, activity should also be confirmed for the half quantity.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Alok Tiwari

    Dear Bhupendra Singh,
    First of all thank you very much for your reply.
    I am trying to do the way you said but it is not happening.
    My requirement is if the production order quantity is 10 each and planned activity is 10 min for labor and if i want to confirm partially 5 each then the activity to confirm for labor should automatically propose me 5 min.

  • Confirmation of activity type in Process order -Impact in FI.

    Dear All,
    On doing a confirmation of a activity type for a process/ Production order - values get posted to secondary cost element which has been assigned to a acitivity type.  This means only a impact in controlling but not in FI
    How woould the booking happens in FI ?is it not required to book in FI, if yes, why.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks.

    Hi Daya
    1. You can calculate activity price for plan in KSPI and for actual KSII for respective CCtr and activity type...but some times people manually update price at KP26 directly which in my opinion is not right way because price is either more or less than the real calculation in KSPI and KSII...
    2. However in your case price is directly updated in KP26 against activity type..when confirmation is done in order this rate * activity qty is your value posted in order level and at the same time respective CCtr is also credited by this amount which you can see in CCtr report
       Example:  CCtr  XXXX01
                       Activity type 999999
                       Sec cost Element for activity type 999999 (43 cat)
        Suppose you have booked FI entries for some expenses like Salary in F-02/FB50...against CCtr XXXX01   So your CCtr XXXX01 is debited by Salary amount and this amount will be absorbed in product through activity for which you need  activity price and confirmation.
        FI entry is booked your expense in GL a/c Salary and same time debited your CCtr through CE salary....Now when you charging this expense in product through prod order you are doing it through confirmation of activity qty which in turn calculating value by taking price from KP26 and qty from confirmation.

  • Activity type in time sheet

    Hi all,
    In PS we donu2019t capture any cost. In such case, While entering timesheet, the system through an error message, to enter sender Activity type and it is not allowing to enter timesheet.
    Now, what should be done to skip entering activity type and enter timesheet without entering activity type?
    I guess it is controlled through work center, by not maintaining costing tab, but the system does not allow to save the work center without entering the cost center under costing tab.
    Please suggest, in entering time sheet without activity type
    Thanks,
    Chandru

    Hi,
    Go to --> SPRO --> Cross Application Components --> Time Sheet --> Settings for all User Interfaces --> Time Recording --> Choose Fields -->Data Entry section --> Activity types
    Double click and in reference to data entry profiles we can restrict the entry for the activity type whether it is required / Display / Hide / Input.
    Check and confirm whether the problem is solved
