Target cost for a Production order

Hi
How to get Target Cost for a production order?
Thanks
Naga

Well Naga, Right now Im on HR implementation , but I programmed same kind of requirement two years before , but I got planned cost and actual cost .
I also notice cost analysis" the cost is not exact , it wont read the value from KP26 of that particular month .
Here I am talking about 4.5b system.
You can find the sales order ref on production order, and your production order is made up of your different kind of material like scarp, raw, semi-finished etc
Here are the steps I followed .
1- I read the material which you can see in material component on production order in Co03.
After that I take the qty and also multiply by the cost at which machine is posted .
I have that programs, as I need to find out . Ill post you later .
But you have to read the tables afko,afpo,afru,caufv,cost ..etc
Do you see information structure I refer you , If i am not wrong this CO3 ( cost analysis ) report use report painter ( Tr.Gr51,Gr52 ) . you can also see by going in to said transaction which information structure its populating . Thisll also help you.
Hope thisll give you idea!!
<b>P.S award the points.!!! DOn`t forget :)!!!!</b>
Good luck
Thanks

Transfer to PA the target costs of a production order

Hi everyone,
How can I transfer to PA the target costs of a production order?
Thanks
Cátia Pereira

Hi
1. Check your settings in KE4U - Strategy 001 must be assigned to PV=01 and Rec Type F
Tick the "Mat Cstng" indicator and assign COPA Qty Field ABSMG
2. Assign costing key to Mat Type in KE4J or KEPC
3. assign Cost Comp Str to VF in KE4R
4. Assign Value Fields to your variance categories in PA Transfer Structure....
Tick "Variances to Costing Bsed COPA" in your settlement profile

Target cost for co-products which can be substitute

Hi,
Is there somebody who is working with co-products which can be different each time you consume raw material?
Here is the situation when we want to analyse variance Actual vs Preliminary cost.
We use Production Order with Co-Products.
When we create a Plan Order, the order costs and qty are calculated for the order header.
Actual costs and qty are charged to the order header as they are incurred.
PLAN:
Main co-product   900 PC
Co-Product A         50 PC
Co-Product B         50 PC
                           1,000 PC
Consumption:
Raw material         250 PC
ACTUAL:
Main co-product    800 PC
Co-Product A        100 PC
Co-Product B        100 PC
                           1,000 PC
Consumption:
Raw material         260 PC
An apportionment structure is used to apportion the costs and qty to the primary products and co-products.
PLAN
                                                          Raw Material
Main Co-Product   90% * 250 PC = 225   PC
Co-Product A          5% * 250 PC =   12.5 PC
Co-Product B          5% * 205 PC = 12.5 PC
                                                            250 PC
ACTUAL
                                                          Raw Material
Main Co-Product   80% * 260 PC =   208   PC
Co-Product A         10% * 260 PC =    26   PC
Co-Product B         10% * 260 PC =   26   PC
                                                            260 PC
Variance calculation and settlement are then performed at the level of the order item, not at the header level of the order.
Here is the target qty calculation made by the system.
Main Co-Product 250 PC * 800/900 * 80% = 177.78 PC
Co-Product A        250 PC * 100/ 50 * 10% =    50.00 PC
Co-Product B        250 PC * 100/ 50 * 10% =    50.00 PC
                                                                           277.78 PC of raw material
Since variance calculation is performed at the order item level, that means you can not substitute one Co-Product by another one.
In our business, we can substitute Co-Product by another one. In this example we planned to make a total of 1,000 PC finished products and we produced a total of 1,000 PC finished products. So the target quantity for the consumption of raw material should be 250 PC, not 277.78 PC as calculated by the system.
Any idea?

Hello Ajay,
I think i am missing some thing here. For Configurable product or VC materials there is no standard cost. Costing tab 2 standard cost is zero.
When a make to order sales order is created with this VC materials, based on system settings and quantities system picks up the correct BOM and routings. Through costing funtionality with in sales order , the sales order need to be costed and marked.
This sales order cost is used for valuation of material movements including 101 from corresponding productuon order and 601 for delivery.
As far as i know for VC material target cost has nothing to do with Standard cost, because there is no standard cost at all for the material.
Please clarifty
thanks

Target costs for product cost collector

hi,
can anyone tell me when are the target costs updated for product cost collector. it is after we post actual costs or after we calculate variance.
Thanks

Hi Elaine,
Thankyou very much for the Information. In our case when we create new product cost collector and cost it and post actual costs to it, system is showing target costs on the product cost collector even before variance calculation but for product cost collectors which are existing from long time system is not showing target costs after we post actual costs. we have created new cost component structure recently and its active from april 1. does this have any impact on the target costs. Please let me know if you have any idea on this.
Thanks,

In house mfgd. raw materials for a production order- Cost capturing

Hello Experts,
The scenario is as below:
Client wants to manufacture in house some of the raw materials for a production order of sub assembly. These raw materials are made from scrap, with some manhours spent on it. After making them in house, these are handed over to stores for kit preparation.
The planner wants to create a stock of these materials (without making individual prod. orders since there are many of these). One option is, planner can do the cost centre issue reversal (202 movement). But the raw material cost is also getting captured in it from the material master.
From costing point of view, the cost of raw material should not be included since it is made from scrap. Only the cost of man hours spent is to be accounted for.
Please help as to how to map this scenario. For capturing cost of man hours spent, we can include a routing for it in the production order of the sub assembly. But how to eliminate or exclude the material cost. All inputs from your side are appreciated. Thanks in advance
Regards,
Chetan.

Hi Chetan,
Your scenario has some major issue.
1. You cannot produce RAW material in SAP.
2. The cost of material produced inhouse will be different than that of original RAW material.
3. There will be some cost effect in the final finished product if you consider this inhouse produced material for product costing of finished goods.
We have similar scenario with my client and here is what I have implemented.
1. Create a new HALB type part number for the inhouse manufactured RAW material. This will ensure that you assign Routing and BOM to same and can capture the COST for the same.
2. Creating new material will enure that the product costing for inhouse produced RAW material is done.
3. You can create single Production order for the same as you only have to capture cost. This depends on your Business scenario.
4. Once you have inhouse produced raw material, you can create alternate BOM for the FINISHED Material with this new Part number in BOM.
5. Create Production Version for the two BOM and ask Planner to select the Version 2 if he requires new part number in Production Order. I assume that this case would genrally appear in very small numbers.
6. Now coming to product costing for final assembly. Since we are going to reuse scrap material to create the new part number, only activity cost and component cost will be used to determine cost. This cost will be less than that of RAW material cost.
So we always suggest our customer to consider OLD part number to determine the PRODUCT COST of final material. BUT business will have to take a call on this.
Do let me know if u need any thing else.

GR for a Production order to be controlled on actual /planned cost

Hi,
               When I do a GR for a production order I want to restrict the GR if my actual cost of materials consumed for the production order is less that 80 % of the planned cost of that production order. There is no provision for restricting the above.
When GR is done for a partial quantity of the production order, the system should consider and compare the GR quantity material cost against the same GR quantity Planned cost in the production order. If the GR quantity actual material value is less than 80% of the GR quantity material planned value, then the system should stop the GR to stores.
Eg:
Production Order for 10 Units of material X
BOM for X are Material A, B and C
Planned quantity to manufacture 10 units of material X is: A 10 unit, B 10 Unit, C 10 Unit
                                The planned value for the material BOM is : A 100
                              B 75
                              C 25
                                     Total Value to manufacture material X is Rs .200
Case 1
If only 5 units are manufactured using the production order.
The GR to stores must be allowed only after the system check the total actual materials consumed in the production to produce 5 units exceeds 80% of the 5 units planned material cost.
Planned Material Value               Actual Material Value
A. 510 = 50                         A. 59 = 4
B. 57.5 = 37.5                         B. 56 = 30
C. 52.5 = 12.5                         C. 52 = 10
Total planned material Value is Rs 100            Total actual material Value is Rs 85
The above case shows that the actual material consumed in the production order is more than 80% of the planned materials. So, the system should allow the GR to stores.
It should check only material cost only.
Case 1I
If 10 units are manufactured using the production order.
The GR to stores must be allowed only after the system check the total actual materials consumed in the production to produce 10 units exceeds 80% of the 10 units planned material cost.
Planned Material Value                    Actual Material Value
A. 1010 = 100                         A. 109 = 90
B. 107.5 = 75                            B. 56 = 30
C. 102.5 = 25                                     C. 52 = 10
Total planned material Value is Rs 200          Total actual material Value is Rs.130
The above case shows that the actual material consumed value in the production order is less than 80% of the planned materials. So, the system should not allow the GR to stores.
It should check only material cost only.
CAN ANY ONE SUGGEST ME ON THE ISSUE
Regards
Madan Mohan

Madan,
Try using the userexit in enhancement MBCF0002.
(A) Now the Planned cost can be calculated from the RESB table passing the Order no. For all the line items in RESB calculate the planned cost = Price * Qty.
(B) For actual costs take it from AUFM for mvt type 261. The fields DMBTR will give you the value. Sum for all line items.
Now suppose the GR bing done now is 5. This you will get in the user exit. In the exit check from CAUFV whta was the GR already posted. Say this is 2. So the total GR is 5 + 2 = 7.
Planned cost for 7 = (A) / Order Qty * 7
Actual cost = (B)
Compare planned and actual and give yr message,

Authorization for Cost Analysis in Production Order

Hi,
Can I maintain the authorization for displaying cost analysis in production order.
I try to create transaction variant....into ZCO02 and ZCO03
but in COOIS it is still branching to CO02 when changing and CO03 when displaying.
I want to disable the cost analysis view in production order so PP people can not access it.
is there any idea?
Please help.
Best regards,
Freddy Ha

Hi,
as i know K_ORDER is authorization for internal order.
We have activate the check in SU24,
but when we tried to trace the authorization when CO02 -> GOTO -> COST _> ANALYSIS
this auth K_ORDER is never check.
Did I miss something here?

Target cost calculation in Process Order based on Variance Calculation

Hi all,
I have a question on Target cost calculation in Process Order. My understanding is, the Target Costs gets calculated when the confirmation and GR is made for the Process Order.
But if the confirmation/GR is not done, whether the target costs gets calculated for only the activity types after the Variance Calculation (KKS2).
I have two scenarios. In one, the target costs got calculated for the activity types without the confirmation/GR after the Variance calculation.
In another scenario, the target costs are not getting calculated for the activity types without the confirmation/GR if I try to do the variance calculation in KKS2.
SO i want to know which scenario is correct?
Can anyone answer this question?
Thanks and Regards,
Brijesh

Hi,
In general, the target costs are calculated once you deliver the order.
Target costs for the components and the activities are updated only once you deliver the order and the target cost for the finished product gets updated when you do the variance calculation.
Consider your scenario number 1 - you said the target costs got calculated for activity types without confirmation / GR after variance calculation.
Now, if the order is not having any status like PDLV, DLV or TECO it will not calculate the variances in the first place.
Your second scenario is correct - without GR the system does not calculate any target costs. Also it will not calculate any variances because the order status is still not DLV.

Transaction code to post Target costs to a Repetitive order

Hi,
Could you please let me know the Transaction code to post Target costs to a Repetitive order or Product cost collector?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,
Question 1. To check how the systems valuates the Order.While in CO03
1. Click the "control data" tab and take note of the costing variant under header Costing in the field CostingVariantPlan
2. Tcode OPL1 ( Costing variant manufacturing orders) Double click the same Variant you have on the Order.
3. Click on the Valuation variant
a. Material val. : gives the priority of prices used in valuation
b. ActvityTypes/Processes: gives the priority of prices used in valuating activities & business processes.
Question2. What determines wether Variance is calculated on the order is the status of the order and not the overlapping over months. Variance will on the order will only be calculated if the status is either DEL(Delivered) or TECO( Technically Completed) any other status will not trigger variance calculation even if it has a variance key.

Target cost zero in process orders

Target cost is zero in process orders...
I did investigation on the forum and folks have suggested could be standard cost is not released at the time of process order release...
I need help in setting that configuration...
regards

Check if you have released Std cost estimate. If No release it if Yes then check if the process order material is having any GR Qty. Becuase Target costs are planned costs for actual production.

What is target qty in process /production orders?

Hi Experts,
I am doing a report that needs to display the quantity and costs (target / planned / actual) of each component in the process /production orders. Through tcode COR3 --> given a process order# --> Goto -- > Costs, I can see total target qty / total planned qty / total actual qty for each component. But I can only find planned qty and actual qty from tables COSS, COSP, RESB. Where to get target qty ?
Can anybody explain to me what is exactly the target qty? Any tables to get target qty? Or any FM to get target qty?
Thanks a lot.
Yu

Dear,
Definition: target costs
Product Cost Controlling (CO-PC)
The costs expected to be incurred when a specific quantity is produced.
In Cost Object Controlling, the target costs are calculated on the basis
    of the planned values of a service unit (such as the planned cost of a
    production order) and the control quantities (such as the yield
    delivered to stock).
Target costs can be used for purposes such as:
o   To determine variances
o   To valuate work in process
Total Target Costs
Total value of the target costs.
Calculated with the following formula:
Total target costs = Target cost debit + Target cost credit.
Use
Target costs are the planned costs adjusted to the actual operating
    rate.
The target debit on a manufacturing order is the sum of the
    activity-independent planned debit of the order and the
    activity-dependent planned debit of the order multiplied by the actual
    quantity of the order.
The target credit of a manufacturing order results from the goods
    receipt postings to stock. The delivered actual quantity is valuated
    with the planned price according to the price control.
The total value of the target costs is the sum of the target debit and
    the target credit.
The target costs are calculated during variance calculation and updated
    to the database.
The target costs cannot be shown until you have performed variance
    calculation for this target cost version. The target credit for the
    calculation of the total variances and production variances cannot be
    calculated until an actual quantity for an order exists after a goods
    receipt posting.
For the calculation of variances, the target costs are compared with the
    control costs.
Dependencies
The calculation of target costs depends on the selected target cost
    version.

Selection of Costing Sheet in Production Order

Hi friends,
I have one query, details of which are as follows.
Costing sheet in Requirement Class - Blank
This requirement class assigned to Requirement type which was derived in Sales order through Material master and hence Costing sheet in Sales order is blank.
Costing Sheet in Valuation variant (Plan) is Z0010 which is assigned to Costing Variant (Plan). It was assigned to Order type.
Costing sheet in Valuation variant (Actual) is Z0020 which is assigned to Costing variant (Actual). It was assigned to Order type.
I have created a new Valuation variant T01 in which Costing sheet is blank. It was assigned to a Particular Plant.
When i am creating the Production order with reference to the Sales order in that Particular plant, system is deriving the Costing sheet as per Valuation variant (Plan) which is common instead of picking from the plant specific valuation variant.
So, its calculating overheads and is impacting our Goods receipt valuation (In this plant, GR Valuation is as per Plan cost of the Production order).
I tried different combinations, and finally observed that it is picking the Costing sheet from the valuation variant (Plan) which is common and not Plant specific.
Is this system behavior correct as per SAP Standard?
Kindly advise on the same
Regards
Madhusekhar Gupta G

Hi Madhu
1. Production order gets coating sheet from the valuation variant assigned to order type
2. The valuation variant that you assign to Plant is for standard cost estimate only
3. For your case, create a new costing variant without costing sheet and assign the same to the order type for this plant
You can assign different costing variant to the same order type per plant

Material cost charge to Production Order from Cost Center / Work Center.

In Production Order Environment, is it possible that goods are issued from Storage location to Cost Center / Work Center, and in turn charged to Production Orders.
Scenario. Transformer Manufacturing.
Production Order size : 100 Units
Steel (Kgs) per Transformer : 3 Kgs
Total Steel required for Production Order: 300 Kgs (100x3)
In the process of manufacturing of a Transformer Steel or Core winding is the first process step.
Even though the Steel required for above said Production Order is 300 Kgs, the minimum issuable lot size from stores is 2000 Kgs.
Is it possible in SAP ECC 6.0 that the Steel of 2000 Kgs is issued to a Cost Center / Work Center, and later charged to production order based on actual Consumption in the said Cost Center / Work Center.
Regards, Replies and Sugestions shall be appreciated
Madhu

Thank you for the reply,
However, the scenario that i had in mind was a bit different from what you had conceptualized.
Scenario - These transformers are basically for loading on to Inverters & UPS, The max weight of the transformer range from 15-30 Kgs. and they dont have an external casing of steel as seen on Indian Electricity Board transformers. Multiple production orders are processed at a single time in the Plant as per Customer specifications.
The general process followed for manufacture is as follows:
1. Core Winding u2013 This process takes place in the core winding department. Steel reels are loaded on to Winders and individual cores of approx 5 u2013 30 Cm Diameter are produced. (Multiple reels of Steel are stacked one on top of the other onto a pallet.) Usually issue of steel from stores happens pallet wise. The pallets of steel generally weigh in excess of 2 tons.
In the present situation (Non SAP Environment) the entire pallet of Steel is issued to the Core winding department and later the Output is charged to multiple Production Orders, based on the records of the Core winding dept. Since in general the steel content in the FG ranges from 3- 25 Kgs multiple Production Orders can be catered to from one Pallet of Steel.
2. Core Laithing. The wound cores are laithed so as to make the sides smooth.
3. Core Annealing u2013 Heat treatment process.
4. Core Insulation. u2013 Insulation of the annealed cores with insulating material.
5. Primary Winding. u2013 Copper is wound as per the BOM Specification. The issue like that of Steel also arises in the Copper winding process. Here also the Cooper comes in Spools which far exceed the requirement for any Production Order. The minimum issueable lot for Copper from Stores is one Spool. The current practice followed is that the Cooper is taken in the name of the Copper winding department and later charged to individual Production Orders.
6. Primary Soldering.
7. Mid Insulation.
8. Secondary Winding
9. Secondary Soldering
10. Shielding
11. Final Insulation u2013 Same issue with insulation too, since the insulating material comes in rolls.
12. Testing.
13. Potting & Drilling - Process of pouring a chemical compound in the center of the transformer, which helps the transformer to later be loaded on an Inverter. The same issue with like of Steel, Copper & Insulation arises here too, since the chemical compound comes in big containers capable of meeting production requirement for a week.
14. Packing
15. Transfer to FG Inventory.
One of the suggestions was to issue the entire 2000 Kgs to the Production Order and then return 1700 kgs after completion of the Production Order based on actual usage. However, in my opinion this option might not be practicable because, assuming that I get another / multiple Production orders in between the issue of 2000 Kgs and return of 1700 Kgs, issue to the new Production order will not be possible if the stock in stores was only 2000 Kgs initially. In case assuming that the material is available in stores for the next production order, the situation could worsen in case of receipt of multiple production orders.
Hope, I have explained the scenario & issue being faced.

Madhu

Cost center Vs production order dates
