Stock Material Consumption and Costing Behaviour

Dear All,
I have created a Maintenance Order and issued a stock Material on it. So, MO is carrying a cost e:g 1000.
After GRN process, the Plan cost should convert into Actual Cost but its not doing so. Can anyone guide me how can the Total Planned costs be changed into Actual Costs ??
Best Regards
BK

Hi,
Go to Tcode OIOF and check Actual var. calc is assigned or not for ur order type and plant.

Batch wise actual material consumption and activity cost

hi
my client is steel industry, client requirement is heat wise actual material and machine cost. Heat is a batch number, how i can check batch wise actual material consumption and machine cost.
regards
imdad

Hi Imdad
Whats the batch definition in your case?? have you designed One batch per Prod order or One batch per GR?
If its one batch per Prod order - you can directly see the prod order.. however, chances are less for this as Steel company might be using PCC i.e. repetitive mfg
If its one batch per GR - Then you will have to track using the Confirmation no because each Confirmation will trigger the Goods Issue and Activity Confirmations...
Using Table AFRU - You can track the individual Confirmation no and also the Activity Qty confirmed....COSS / COSSD will have the Activity Cost
If any goods mvt are posted during the Confirmation, you would see a Mat Doc No populated in the field "Mat Doc"

Reg. price maintenance in material master and Costing

Dear Experts
I have maintained price for material in material master and costing,but when I create PO price didn't come from anywhere. Pls help me.
Thanks
Rajakumar.k

Dear Rajakumar,
The values that are maintained in the material master in costing view is considered only for costing
purpose.
Say while doing the cost estimate for a material using CK40N,a costing variant will be used and say For
Eg,PPC1,for this a valuation variant will be linked ,as per this valuation variant for costing purpose the
first priority would have been given to the planned price in the material master in costing 2 view.
So this value will be considered only for costing purpose.
For procurement related things you have to maintain a purchase info record for a material + vendor
combination in ME11 and a source list in ME01.
In the purchase info record you can maintain a price for buying the material from that vendor.
I hope this will clear your doubts.
Check and revert back.

PP-MM-FI integration for Non-Stock material consumption

The client is expecting a simple solution for a Std SAP process which is LIKE subcontracting....but actually not.
The requirement is to set up a process of external operations using a NonStock (NLAG) material ( which will have no physical stock updation when GR is done). This material is a part of BOM with item category N. The material will have S price control. ( Must from business requirements). PR gets created from process order --> converted to PO --> then 101 and simultaneous automatic consumption gets debited to order. (with a price = PO price). PO has a account assignment F and item category blank Standard).
Question - This behaviour is not desired. The "Std cost" should be used in posting a consumption posting..& the rest ( PO price less Std price) should be shown as purchase price variance in a different acount. How to customise this break up ? Is there way in MM pricing conditions or something else ?.
Pl note that there is no stock entry...only consumption will be debited with GR offset at PO price. Also at invoice verification, the price if different should be posted to price difference account ( which is not assigned to process order...it is directly going to COPA).
Might be a very simple SAP solutions / answers from MM /PP......so that we avoid the ABAP development for reposting..
Could somebody help pls ?
Regards
Ram

Hi,
Since Material is Non-Stock Material so it is must to maintain the Account Assignment Category in PR or PO for this Material. And once you maintain the Account Assignment Category in PO and do GR w.r.t. this PO then it will not consider the Material Master Price (Standard Price) since there is not any Stock Account Entry during GR, it will hit the Expense Account. And Price Difference Account will get debited only if Stock Account will come in picture.
So following Accounting Entry will get generated;
During GR (MIGO);
Expense Account - Dr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr
During LIV (MIRO);
Vendor Account - Cr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Dr

Vehicle total consumption and cost report - Fleet Management

Dear All,
I have created a Fleet object having multiple fuels i.e. Gasoline and CNG and entered transactional data using IFCU transaction. My client need to know how much Gasoline and CNG was consumed for the Fleet Object and cost incurred for the fuel consumption. In MCIZ report it shows the total fuel consumption counter reading for the vehicle regardless of different fuel types.
Is there any standard report to view the said information?
Thanks & Regards,
Saif Ali Momin

The following method may work for you
Divide the distance by the litres used to get the km/litre
Convert the km/litre to L/100 km i.e. divide 100 by km per litre
Convert km/litre to miles per gallon i.e. multiply km/litre by 2.825
Fuel conversion formula table
To convert Formula to use
km per litre to litres per 100 km divide 100 by km per litre
km per litre to miles per gallon multiply km per litre by 2.825
litres per 100km to miles per gallon divide 282.5 by litres per 100km
miles per gallon to litres per 100km divide 282.5 by miles per gallon
litres per 100km to km per litre divide 100 by litres per 100 km
miles per gallon to km per litre multiply miles per gallon by 0.354
km to miles multiply km by .62137
miles to km multiply miles by 1.6093
gallons to litres multiply gallons by 4.546
litres to gallons multiply litres by .21997
Hope this of help

Material ledger and cost estmate

Hi all
Can any body tell me the impact on material ledger of deleting the current standard cost estimate from material master? The requirement has come for change the current standard cost from material master whom we have released on 01.01.2008 and now today at 07.01.2008 we want to change this. All the transactions for material in current period I have got the reverse. Now I will delete the cost estimate from T_code CKR1 and than the new standard cost will releases from today in same period. At month end we are going to run the actual costing. Would be any problem in actual costing?
Thanks and Reagrds
Vinay Thakre

thanks Pascal for prompt response,would you please advise my below understanding to ML and actual cost
1)CKMLCP - Edit Costing Run to create costing run to calculated periodic unit price
2)Because there are some activities in CKMLCP,we have to respectively execute CKMF / CKMG/CKMJ / CKMH / CKMI for each activity of costing run
3)after costing run with CIMLCP,SAP will use calculated periodic unit price to revaluate inventory for previous period,and the price indicator S automatically changed to V for previous as well.
4)SAP will generate FI cocument to adj inventory and consumption cost after "post closing"
5)there is different periodic unit price for each closed period
5)the price indicator for closed period is always V,the price indicator in current period is S

Future scheduled changes to material lotsize and mrp behaviour

Hi,
I have scheduled changes for a material in lot size for the next month and and also the lotsize key of periodic lot sizing procedure of weekly lot size from daily total to weekly total and also mrp type pd to p1.
when I run mrp then for the first changed month it is giving the changed lot size and weekly total and for the other future months it is considering the old lot size value and weekly total.
to display the new lot size what I have to do.
Thnaks and Regards
Ramana

Hi Vivek,
If I'm correct The changes will be made active on the scheduled date i.e. on 1st of october in our case using MM13. then the new lot size will be dispalyed in material master. if this is the the case untill unless the scheduled date comes I can't expect MRP to give me new lot size propsals.
But for materials with a long lead time foe ex 60 days I want to schedule new lot size data for the 60th day onwards and till that time old lot size data has to be taken. I want to get procurement proposals with old lot size for the coming sixty days and then with new lotsize after the 60th day onwards and I want run MRP for a period more than 6 months starting now and so that i can give procurement proposal to the vendors accordingly in future and present. Is there any way to acheive this.
Thanks and Regards
Ramana

Stock material will be taken as Non stock material

Hi All,
I have a query regarding Material master description ,even though the material master is maintained for particular material description user directly enters the description of the material so that he could not able to find the MMR for that particular description while creating purcahse order this
1.creates a duplicate of that material description & also
2.Stock material will be taken as non stock material against the cost center.
Please help me out
regards,
Patil

Hi Malyadri,
My issue is due not getting the material master for a requried material description the user directly entres the material description in purcahse order description filed and procures the material due to this the material will taken as non stock material as it will be booked against cost center.
...So please help me out how to stop this i want when the user is entering directly the material description the system should through a message saying that particular descripton material master exsits.

Material Ledger : Actual Cost settlement to Consumption Accounts

Dear CO Experts,
We are aware that when we run CKMLCP, all variances (in the Price Diff GL Account) due to Material Prices flutuation, diff in Standard & Actual Cost of Production, etc. would finally get settled to Consumption or Stock Account in its appropriate ratios.
Consumption Acount GL is a Cost Element with Cost Category as 1.
There can be cases, when there are diferences in Production Order, due to fluctuations in Prices or Actual consumption is more than standard consumption.
When a Production Order is settled the difference is posted to Price Diff Account.
When a Material Ledger (Actual Costing) is executed, Price Diff Account is targetted to be Zero. The Price Diff is then splitted in Stock & Consumtion Account in its appropriate ratios.
Main Question :
Since, Consumption Acount GL is a Cost Element with Cost Category as 1, what shall be the CO Account Assignment Object, when the ML value is settled to Consumption Accounts.

hi merchant..
   1. Price diff between stnd and act is initially goes to PRD a/c through OBYC setting at the time of GR/Invoiceing/Issue if mat is set as S&3.
   2. In case of mat set as V&2 idially there should not be any diff but may arise some small amount due to "no or less stock qty" at the time of invoicing.
3. When CKMLCP is run these price diff & order settlement diff splitted to cons and stock as you mentioned.
Now your question :
" Since, Consumption Acount GL is a Cost Element with Cost Category as 1, what shall be the CO Account Assignment Object, when the ML value is settled to Consumption Accounts"
    Cons GL is cost element cat 1 for capturing mat mov for Issues to orders/cost centres,oth co obj for primary posting at stnd price.
    Now at the time of CKMLCP run you revaluate the materials and price diff are splitted to cons & stock and goes to mat to calculate act cost (stnd +/- prd).
I think this will give you some light on your issue.

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

Material and cost center

Hi,
May I know where is material kept?
As I understand, only when consumption of materail, it is debited to cost center. So before consume, the material is in inventory.
I would like to know if in inventory, then it is not belong to any cost center? then why in profit center?
thanks

Hello
1) Yes it is possible to debit cost center when the material is consumed in the cost center. An example of this is consumables which are consumed against cost centers with movement type 201. This is because these materials are not part of the BOM and pretty in nature.
2) Whenever wages and salaries are booked the relevant cost centers are debited. Here the wages account is debited (so also cost center) and bank/wages payable account is credited. When we do actual production we charge direct labour to Manufacturing orders as an activity. This is only a CO entry where the cost center is credited and the manufacturing order is debited.
3) Profit center is a responsibility area means the person who is managing the profit center is not only responsible for the profit but also responsible for the return on investment. Investment means total of current and fixed assets - liabilities. There may be two profit centers say A and B with investments of 1000 USD and 5000 USD. Both make a profit of 200 USD. So when we see the ROI then A is much better then B.
So to find the total assets which includes stock, we need to maintain them profit center wise. This is the reason why the profit center field is available in material master.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.

Subcontracting scrap, component consumption and service cost booked to vendor

Hi,
Our client is issuing 100 pieces of component "A" to subcontracting vendor to manufacture finished product "B". In MIGO, we are receiving finished product B and consumption is booked for 100 pieces of component A . Invoice is paid to the subcontracting vendor for the service cost.
Later, we realized finished product did not met the quality standards and decided to scrap out the finished product B. This is scrapped and stocked out using std. SAP using 551 mov type. But the client want to charge scrap cost of finished product B, service cost (Job work cost) and the consumed components (A) of 100 pieces to subcontracting vendor. How to map this challenging scenario in Std. SAP.
Regards,
Sat

No need to create subcontracting PO.
Just create a standard PO, use material as FG (Material B as per your scenario)
Enter the vendor (whom you want to charge for it)
Let me explain the scenario:
1. You have created a subcontracting PO for vendor X, FG material B and component A.
Subcontracting service charge = Rs. 10.
Price for Material B = Rs. 50
Price for material A = 30.
2. You have done GR.
Now the FG material B is in your stock. (Here, you have done 551 movement type). Right ?
Now just do not do 551 movement type. Leave the stock as it is.
3. Then create a standard PO for material B and vendor X, give the price = (10+50+30) 90 and tick the return option in PO line item.
4. Then do goods receipt. Movement type 161 will be automatic posted in system and stock will be consumed from your storage location.
Then accounting entry will be
Stock account Credit
GR/IR account Debit.
5. Then you can do credit memo to vendor from MIRO with the reference of this PO. Then the accounting entry will be
GR/IR account Credit
Vendor Account Debit.

Material Consumption - receipts and Issues

HI guys,
i have an issue with material consumption
Initial stock = 0
Purchase order    =1000 kgs - Rs 100000
goods receipt       = 1000 kgs
Total stock         = 1000kg
Goods Issue       = 1000kg
Total stock         = 0
Invoice receipt    = Rs 102000
the extra Rs 2000 will go to price difference account.
this happens very often with our client. if the extra costs are hitting price diff account every time, my issues consumption will be different from raw material receipt values.
it will not update my raw material price. (maintained in MAP).
my raw material consumption will be different from what i received. what is the solution for this.
this happens in imports also. where in u will receive clearing agent, port dues, other frieght charges when the material stock is zero. so the whole value will be posted to price diff account. what abt my price updation?
Regards,
Edited by: Girish on Aug 21, 2008 6:13 PM

Hi,
You can not avoid the postings in Price difference A/c if enough Stock Coverage is not there.
But you can post the Price difference value to the Material Account using "Materials" Tab in MIRO
To activate "Materials" Tab in MIRO, go to SPRO > MM > Logistics Invoice Verification > Incoming Invoice > Activate Direct Posting to G/L Accounts and Material Accounts

Unit Cost of non stock material - Hubwoo Catalogue

Hi Team,
There is one requirement to transfer the the cost of matrial from SAP PM to ArcFM. Here the materials are assigned to the operations in the PM order. Here we want to transfer the service cost and material cost of the particular operation to the ArcFM ( ie an external design tool) to estmate the total cost involved for the particular operation.
Here the unit cost of the stock material can be get from the material master. But for nonstock material, a hubwoo catalogue is maitained. How do we get the unit cost for the this material?
There is an interfece we have to develop to transfer the service cost and material cost from the SAP to ArcFM. Hence we have to get the unit cost of the non stock material here.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shyjith

Hi,
Yes, you are right but in material master price is not updating, many times I have been assigned the same material as a non stock and at every time I have maintained the planned price on order level but it is still maintained as "0" value in material master,
what is the standard process?
what settings need to be made to get automatically planned price or last purchased price for a non stock material?
