Standard Cost Estimation

Dear All,
Yesterday we taken the costing run for all 5 plants, in this 5 plants we have problem with 3rd plant.
During costing result the price is Rs. 69 Rs.
However it is release with Rs. 2.8 only in Material master
Previous price in Material Master is Rs. 12,500/-
But in Material master shown Rs. 500/-.
So, Any one could you guide me how can i solve this problem.....
Thanks for Advance....
Thanks & Regards,
Chandrababu.B

Dear Adi,
Exactly your right.....,
The Costing Lot Size = 25 in Material Master
Before Marking = 69.97
After Release = 2.80
Here the calculation is 69.97/25 = 2.80
As per your suggestion i checked it.....
Thanks a lot Adi....
Thanks & Regards,

Standard cost estimation after goods movement when material ledger is activ

Hi!
our client is activated material ledger, for some materials standard cost estimation is done till marking but not released.
goods movements have been posted for those materials.
Now system is not allowing to release the standar price for those material in the current period, as material ledger expects same price for entrie period.
what is the alternative way to update the standard price for those materials ( with out reversing the goods movements).
regs,
ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
When you are using Material Ledger, after goods movemnets for materials, no need to change the standard cost estimate as Actual costing run will take care to derive the PUP price.
If there is no standard cost estimation release for sold materials (e.g.FG), you will get an error message duirng the billing document release to accounting. To aviod this error, if you are using split valuation (valuation types) and mixing ratios (CK91N & CK94), try with the below steps:
Create a new valuation type for the same material
Crate CK11N & CK94,
Run CK11N
Run CK24.
Then release the billing document.
Let me know if you need more details.
Thanks & Regards,

Standard Cost Estimation Functionality removal from S.O.

Hi Friends,
I would like to know, is in SAP system there is an option to remove funcionality of auto Stadard cost Estimation i.e. we don't like to make Standard cost Estimation at the time of Sales order creation.
Can you Please tell me about this feature.
Rgds, Krishan Raheja.

Hi,
I am talking about the Cost Estimation happens, as it shows the cost via menu path---> Extra --> Costing. Further, the system will make the accounting entries for consumptions/Receipt w.r.t. to cost calculated vai this estimation. VPRS condition is not having the same prices as calculated in Costing. Further, the stock will also remain with same prices as calculated in price.
Can you please suggest, if there is any option, so that we can omit this costing calculation and system make consumption/receipt entries with the values in material master.
Rgds / Krishan Raheja.

The split (i.e., 70% & 30%)during standard cost estimation (CK11)

Dear All,
A component(Y) in the BOM of X is manufactured in house (70%) & procured directly from vendor (30%).
Can we have the split (i.e., 70% & 30%)during standard cost estimation (CK11)
Based on the cost we deside to make or buy.
Please explain the procedural steps in arriving at this solution.
Regards,
Kumar

Dear Mr.Kumar,
For any material in the material master , for Price
Control indicator in Accounting 1 View we can either
maintain S or V.
For In House Manufactured materials we maintain S
(Standard price) & for Sub contracted or bought out
items we maintain V(Moving Average price).
During cost roll up & release as far I know we cant
split like 70 & 30% and we can do the costing.
So either you have to use the moving average price for
both inhouse & bought out.
Because 1 material cant have both standard price &
Moving Average price.
Because bought out item's doesnot have standard price.
If your vendor is ready to give the material(Finished
product) using the same amount which you spend for
producing inhouse,then no issue,you can use
standard price.But Practically it doesn't occur.
I hope this will help to clear your doubt.
If useful reward points.

Routing during Standard Cost Estimation

Dear all,
We are executing the Standard Costing using t_code CK11N for a finished product,,,for the same we have maintained BOM, but no routing has been created,,
so, during execution of Standard Costing system is prompting a msg: No routing could be determined for material AUBF0018 (green indicator not an error msg), so if we try save the costing a success msg: "The cost estimate is being save" is being prompted,, but the standard cost did not get updated in material master.
what would be the cause? Is routing essential prior to standard cost execution,,, as our Client says that without routing also they could excute/update the standard cost earlier,,, why this problem is occuring? is there any thing need to be defined in customization for routing not to consider during standard cost estimation,
Please help us in this regard,
thanks
Kumar

Dear Urendra,
1.After executing the costing run with quantity structure in CK11N and saving the datas,it only saves the cost estimate.
2.Marking and release should be done using CK24.First the same has to be marked and then using the same T Code you have to
release it,only after this steps it get's updated in the material master.
3.In your case you have done only CK11N and not CK24.
4.Moreover the routing get's picked automatically by the costing variant that you use,in your case even though there is no
routing,the systems throws the message before saving,but the status will be saved with errors.
Check with this and revert back.

Difference in the Material variant BOM Qty during Standard Cost estimation

Hi SAP Experts,
We are trying to estimate the cost for the material variant, but the BOM exploded
during the cost estimation, the quantity differs slightly with the BOM exploded
during CU50.
What might be the reasons for difference.
Please give your valuable Inputs.

Standard cost estimation along with departmental transfer

Hi Friends,
I will like to have the overview of the
1. departmental transfer price.
2. CKM3N (i.e. material price analysis, what is the difference between activation and non activation of it.)
3. KB21N (Direct activity allocation)
What are their connection in estimating the standard price.

Hi Friend
1) Transfer prices
Transfer price is a price used to valuate the transfer of goods and service between profits centers. Precondition is that you have Material Ledger active
Legal View = Company Code
                                             Parallel Valuation Approach
                                            /                       |                     \
                                    Group                Legal               Profit Center
- If currency type 32, transfer price is active
- Internal moves are always valued at procurement price
2) CKM3N
Before you activate Material Ledger you would have the option of S or V Price control, however when you activate ML you   can value Materials at "periodic unit price", this price takes into account all the transactions of a material in a period(i.e goods movements, procurement etc..) and then at the end of the period revaluates the Material with a new periodic unit price.
3) KB21N
Allocation in general means taking cost accumulated on one object and allocating it to another, usually a cost center.
Direct Activity Allocation is where you use transactions KB21 (KB21N) to manually allocation costs from the cost collector (e.g. Order) to a specific Cost Center. The activities can come from PS or from CATS Activity Recording. These activities are assigned to an order/wbs/network. And from there via the transaction KB21/KB21N they are allocated to a specific cost center.
I hope the above information helps.

Declan

Error: no product cost estimation possible, at the releasing for accounting

Hi Guru,
while releasing for account in billing document for the finished product.Shows Error as:"no product cost estimation not allowed". Thou I cheked configuration checking of costing key in COPA and costing variant of relevant one looks fine. Plz guide me further more configuration and basic settings needed in to solve this task.
Thanking u in advance
Murali.

Pawan,
Thanks for your quick reply.
I have done those change also, still it is coming same as " No Product cost estimate was found". check you costing key 100 in COPA configuration. i have checked costing key configuration , in that costing varinat PPC1, Costing Version 1, Period/Indicator as "Current Standard cost estimate Acc. to entry in Material Master" .
How to fix this, guide me

Regarding Cost Estimation

Dear All,
While doing the Cost estimation for a Product i am getting the below mentioned error..
Cost estimate for material W275271299NEW / plant LEP1 is incorrect
Message no. CK168
Diagnosis
The system found errors in the cost estimate of material component W275271299NEW from plant LEP1.
System Response
The results of raw material cost estimates that have errors are not used in the product just costed. Only cost estimates that do not have errors or that were released are used in cost rollup.
All assemblies that contain material W275271299NEW from plant LEP1 in their structure are indicated as incorrect.
The message sets the costing status of the assembly to 'costed with errors'.
Procedure
Eliminate the error at the highest low-level code.
The Material W275271299NEW is Scrap material. That is generated at the time of Production. this material i have mentioned Negative in BOM.
Regds,
Janardhan.

Check with your Practice for Matrices,Technical refererence models, Governance policies, standard templates for requirement gathering etc.

Material ledger and standard cost estimate

Hi Gurus,
When standard cost estimate is done in a scenario, where material ledger is activated, does the entire stock get revaluated andl post a credit in my P/L? Is it possible to keep my inventory(FG and SFG) at periodic unit price ie at the actual manufacturing price over a longer period say 3 years? Please fill this gap in my understanding.
Best regards
Vimal

Hi Vimal,
Material ledger uses the standard price as 'preliminary price' always during the current month, independent of the question if a new standard price was estimated and released.
But: After period end, when the actual price is calculated the posting will adjust the inventory and P/L accounts to the actual price, with posting date in the recent period.
That means if you have a material that was manufactured once and then consumed over a 3 year period, and during that period you calculate the same material in a standard cost estimate with changing results, that would mean: Looking back at any month during the 3 years the consumption and stock values will be valued at the actual price of manufacturing. But during the currently open period it will always be valuated at the price of the last released cost estimate.
I hope I understood your scenario correct...
Best regards, Udo

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.

Actual costing/standard costing

Dear all,
can anybody sugg me what is actual costing&standard costing.and what's difference between two.
regards
usha.

Dear UshaRani,
Standard Cost/Product Cost = Materials Cost(Raw Materials Cost Semi Finished Materials Cost)
Activity Cost(Operation Cost)
1.For all your ROH - Raw materials maintain price control indicator as V and enter the value as Planned
Price 1 and Planned Price Date 1 under Costing 2 View - Planned price tab.
2.For all your Inhouse manufactured semi-Finished(HALB) and In house manufactured Finished materials
(FERT) maintain price control indicator as S and dont enter any value directly in accouting view.
3.For activity's cost(Operation Cost) comes via ---> work centre in which the operation is performed.
4.A cost centre and an activity type where a rate has been maintained for that cost centre and activity type
(T code KP26) will be linked to the work centre under costing tab.
5.As per the operation time,the cost is getting calculated.
6.Overhead cost is the indirect cost which's spend during production.
7.So when the cost rollup is taken using T code CK40N (or else using CK11N estimating & CK24 for
marking and release) all this cost gets added and the materials standard cost is calculated and same is
marked in Costing 2 view under Current Planned price column.
8.Standard cost estimate is done for FERT materials so that automatically the system does for Semi-
Finished products also.
9.Actual Costing is nothing but the value of the materials( Raw-materials cost) when production
confirmation is made for the operation.
10. Say there's a raw material X whose planned price is Rs 10/,so while doing GR for this material Let's
assume for a quantity of 10 the value is Rs120/-,so now the actual value becomes 120/10 = Rs 12.
I hope this will help you to some extent.

System is not converting unit of measure ment while doing cost estimation.

Hi All,
System is not converting unit of measure ment while doing cost estimation.
Now i am explaining system setting. based on this kindly help me.
Our Base Unit of Measure Measuremnt in Material Master is M2 (meter square) and We have maintained Unit conversion in Master as 1 PC is <=>2.5 M2.
We are running costing for 1 M2.
Producion we are doing in Peaces (PC) . and i maintained Std Value for for Machin and Labour for PC only. and we maintained charge quantity in phases also.
While running cost estimation system is not converting std value of machin & labour into M2.instead it is showing full machin and labour time and value.
System showing PC value for M2 Cost estimate.
Can any one let me know where i am missing.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sahil

Hi,
as per your explanation: 1 PC (piece) = 2,5 sqm (m2), standard values for "labour / machine" maintained per PC.
I guess within T-code CUNI, the unit PC does not allow any decimal places (means there can be only 1 piece, 2 pieces, 2 pieces but not 1 and a half pieces, 2,63 pieces,...)
Now if you are running plan cost estimate for quantity 1 sqm (m2) SAP picks the "labour / machine" values for 1 PC (and not for 1 / 2,5 = 0,4 pieces) as decimal places for unit pieces are not allowed so its up-rounding.
Run cost estimate for 10 sqm (m2) which should be 4 PC and the result should be fine.
Best regards, Christian
