Target costs on Process orders not calculating

Hi All,
We have released standard costs for all the materials. We have also done Goods receipt for the process order but still the TARGET COSTS are not getting updated.
Can some one tell is any specific config present for the same.
We need to fix the process orders but how?
Thanks,
Hari

Dear Harihara,
<b>You must have all manufacturing master data associated with your manufactured material(s) set up.</b> This includes bills of material, work centres, routings, and activity prices. If you are charging overhead, you must also have maintained the costing sheet and the material master overhead key field.
Hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Naveen.

Target Cost in Process Order not calculated

Hello,
In Process order, after deliver of FG the target cost is not getting calculated,
Could you please help me why the target cost is not calculated in process order.
I have configured all setting for WIP and Variance

Hi,
Target costs are only calculated after goods movements have occured on the order, the Target Costs are then calculated during the Variance calculation.
Target costs will only be calculated after the first goods receipt has been posted to the order. Also you have to ensure that the information to calculate target costs exists on the system in particular in OKV6.
This estimation is based on the customizing for the Target cost version in transaction OKV6 as in turn will the "real" calculation of the Target costs via the variance calculation.
So in OKV6 the Target cost will be based on preliminary costing on the order, an alternative cost estimate or the current standard cost estimate. Importantly if the choosen option is not fulfilled e.g. no current standard cost estimate, the target costs will not be predicted or calculated.

GR Cost not updating as Target Cost for process orders

Dear SAPians,
We are facing an issue in Target Vs Actual cost reporting for process orders. We are creating a process order after cost estimate of that material and doing the confirmations for activity cost. After that, GR has been done for the finished goods of that process order. That GR entry is updating the Actuals values but not updating the Target cost. When I am checking the standard report KKBC_ORD, I am getting the following figures.
Cost Elemnt Text     |     Target Cost     |     Actual Cost     |     Target Vs Act
Inventory Chnge FG     |     0     |     1,472,205.60-     |     1,472,205.60-
Packing Matrl Cons.     |     1,148,142.37     |     1,252,752.68     |     104,610.31
Raw Material Cons.     |     60,463.91     |     50,688.29     |     224.38
Semi-Fin Matrl Cns.     |     181,934.68     |     367,959.56     |     186,024.88
Labour Cost Activity     |     39,735.36     |     39,862.80     |     127.44
Machine Cst Activty     |     41,611.75     |     43,153.01     |     1,541.26
That 'Inventory Change FG' entry is showing the GR posting updating actuals and not target cost. This is causing huge difference in target vs actual cost that will affect the profit and loss figures ultimately.
What am I missing here? What should I do to update the GR amount in Target cost as well.

Dear,
Target Cost on Production Order or Process Order is shown only when Variance is Calculated.
So please calculate the Variance, system will show the Total Target Cost.

Target Cost in process order

Dear All,
I have activated the version 0 only and the valuation variant for the actual cost has been assigned as plan price for the period for both of variants of plan and actual. when the order confirmed the actual cost is alone gets updated the target cost is not getting updated for the process order. Kindly advice.
Regards
Vasantha

hi vasantha,
the target cost is been update in two ways that is by copying the previours year actual or by manual planning with regards to the cost objects.
if u have the previours year actual to be copy t code OKKP select the copy actuals, so that it copy the actual as planning.

Std Costing and Actual costing at process Order

Hello Friends,
Followings are the client requirements, Please give me your ideas :-
1 . Costing variant is same for all three - costing run, process order (plan and actual), means there is no prices variance on process order level. ( material at std price, Activity plan price, overhead fix%)
2. Alongwith this above client also need to capture actual result (material at MAP, activity at monthly actual price, overhead fix %)
In this case there is price and usage variance can see.
Now as I think that both scenarios are not possible on process order level. According to me we can do by a customize actual costing cockpit.
Need your openion that do we have any option thru standard funcations of sap to get this requirement. If you need any other explanation , please do let me know.
Thanks
Ravi

Thanks friends. I have done.

Stock should kept in block till Process order not settled

Hi,
My client requirement is like, untill process order not get settled, confiremd stock against process order sholud not transfr or consumed from storage location.
Please let me know the best possible solution.
Regards
Rakesh

Hi,
There is no direct control of order status on the relevant stock.
Either do GR to quality stock or block stock & utilize the same after order settlement.
Also use batch management to trace the order specific GRN.
Could you pls tell us why does your client require this?
Is that client is going for MAP in case of SFG & FG?
Hope this helps you.

Process order variance calculation not taking the GI+Activity confirmation Cost

Hi,
Process oder was settled in the Month of June,2014. Accounting document was generated,but system only considered the GR cost. System was not considered the GI as well as activity cost on variance calculation. Variance posted GR= Variance.
22nd June,2014 Variance calculated, on 30th WIP entery also reversed with the same amount.
1st July,Order done untecho and no transactions are posted in the Month of July.
Now they would like to settle the Process in the Month of July. system is throwing the error " Status DLV/TECHO reversed after settlement period 006.2014"
Order status was TECO PRT CNF PRC CSER BASC BCRQ CRF No variance calculation status.
Any one faced any similar issue , please suggest me how to proceed.

Hi,
Please check SAP Note 386816 for error KV181.
In general it is recommended to use the Cost estimate of the Process Order (Planned Cost Estimate) for the WIP at target calculation. In additional please pay attention to SAP Note 386816 which explains this procedure and which prerequisites must be met to calculate WIP at targets or the scrap variance. Even if the group counter of the routing is different you can still calculate WIP at targets but only if the message type of message KV181 is set to SPACE by Customizing settings.
Hope this will a bit help to you.

Process order variance calculation

Hi All,
We have Sub- Assemblies which are currently set up in the system as purchased, sub-contracted sub-assemblies. this is how we will procure these the large majority of the time. There will be instances, however, where we will need to build them in house. but when we run cost estimate and mark and release sytem is using sub-contract Quantity structure in cost roll and when we producing we are using different Quantity structure like like BoM and Routing.at the time of variance calulation we are getting errors becuase of conflict in cost estimate Quantity structure and process order Quantity structure.
How can i solve this issue?any help is appreciated...
I'm getting the following error..
Message no. KV181
Diagnosis
This message tells you which quantity structure was used by the cost estimate that calculated the target costs, and which quantity structure was used in the actuals.
The cost estimate that calculated the target costs did not use the quantity structure used in the actuals.
This means that the cost estimate used a different combination of task list type, task list group, and group counter than in the order itself (such as the production order).
Example:
Suppose the target costs were calculated in the standard cost estimate for the material, and that the standard cost estimate for the material is based on the routing identified by task list type N, task list group 50000309, and group counter 1.
Now suppose the production order specifies a routing identified by task list type N, task list group 50000309, and group counter 2. This would lead to the error.
System Response
The system cannot calculate target costs for the valuation of work in process or scrap.

Standard costing in Process order for external operation

Hi SAP - PP gurus,
Need your expert suggestion on the current scenario. We are having a sequence of operations in a process order. One specific operation is used to trigger subcontracting activity for completion of some services.
while calculating the total planned & actual costs & variance costs for the process order as a whole , we are not getting the desired results.
The planned cost is not getting calculated or variance is not populated correctly. what might be the problem or is there any alternate solution to approaching this scenario.

I do not have an 'expert' response for you - but I can share my experience and maybe both of us will learn the 'truth' before too long.
In the external processing - indicator in the control key for a phase/operation in a recipe - when it is set, the system requires that either a Purchasing Information Record or an Outline Agreement # and Outline Agreement line item # be entered. If I enter a PIR, the data from the PIR is loaded into the external op fully. This results in a proper cost roll-up and proper processing.
If I use an Outline Agreement + Item # - the system expects me to copy all this detailed information into the remaining General Data fields (that were populated automatically when I used the PIR). I don't have to enter anything except the OA + Item numbers. But if I do not enter a price - then I, like you, get less than acceptable pricing because this operation is NOT priced (I do get a warning - this leads me to believe that SAP will not be populating these fields - the warning is to remind ME to do it --- I want the system to do it since I am specifying the OA + item numbers).
I have searched help and now have posted an OSS note for the answer to this: The PIR does what I want (it has to be created prior to application of course), but because External processing is merely a service and can't be specified by Material # and it only works per Material Group # - then I only have the chance to enter one price per Material Group - and that is insufficient in my situation (I have about 50 materials per each group and each item can have a different price). So I have to use OAs - and not having them able to trigger auto copying into the external op phase - this causes a lot of extra work and risk of data inaccuracy (mis-keying the price, etc.). There does not seem to be a fix - so I think the manual application in the ext op will be your recourse.
Let me know if you have learned more.

Target quantity in process order

Overhead Cost in Process Order

Hi All
I need your expert inputs / suggestions to apply the correct method of calculating overheads in process order.
Requirement:
To calculate
a. Labor cost
b. Overhead Cost
c. Depreciation Cost of Machine
in a process order. Also .b. and .c. are dependent on labor time entered (a.)
What I have done:
I am new to PP and CO, so with my limited understanding I have done the following:
1. Created activities for labor, overhead cost and depreciation.
2. Created secondary cost elements
3. Created Standard Value Key
4. Added all the parameters (Labor, OVH, DEP)
5. Created a formula for these parameters
6. And used them in Resource and KP26
Problem:
With the above setup I get three values (Labor, OVH, Dep) to enter in the process order confirmation. However I need just one field : Labor time, for all the values to be calculated.
As OVH and Dep should use the same time as for Labor parameter but with different rate (as mentioned in KP26) is there a way out where I can just show Labor variable to be entered to the user and other two use that time also!
Or if you feel there can be different approach for the overheads and depreciation to be calculated kindly write back
Thanks in advance
-Rahul

Hi rahul
I understand you want to use same formula for cossting for the
a. Labor cost
b. Overhead Cost
c. Depreciation Cost of Machine
Then in work center-> costing tab you can mention same formula for the overhad and Depreciation which was using for labour cost.
Please check and come back.

Process order not picking up a batch...

Hello gurus,
I have created a process order for a mater FIN in which iam using a RAW...but when i create a process order for the FIN and go to MIGO to do a GI, its not picking up a batch of RAW automatically and instead i have to pick a batch manually...
Any suggestions much appreciated
Sri.

HI
1.you have to assign the batch in COR2 for the components.
or
2.you have to use batch determination process
COB1 - is used when you want to do Batch Determination in Production / Process order itself.
MBC1 - is used during Goods issue / Goods Transfer
For doing Batch Determination on the basis of any characteristic you have to maintain sort rule.T.code is CU70.

Scheduled finish date for process orders not updating in BW

We are having problems with the scheduled finish date (GLTRS) for process orders. When the process order is already released, changes done in R/3 on the scheduled finish date will not result to a delta hence data in BW is not updated. Table AFKO, where data is coming from, is always updated with the changes though. 2LIS_04_P_MATNR is used in extracting the data.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? We are looking for possible ways on how to have a delta whenever there are changes on the process order even after it is already released.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Hi Donna,
If I've understood your problem correctly, you can increase the load frequency as Sriee has pointed out.
If you want latest data frequently and if you are on BI 7.0 then you can look at Real Time Data Acquisition(RDA)

Changing BOM-items in Process Order not allowed

that Hello,
Mi client is asking me if it is posible, once created a Process Order, upon modifying the order (COR2), that the user can not change any of the cuantities and batches of the material list (BOM) updated in the Process Order.
Is there any way one can protect the material list from being modified once created, or once liberated the order?
Is it posible, moreover to just protect the BOM ítems updated in the Process order but let the option open to add exta BOM ítems manually.
Is there a userexit or a Badi one can use to acomplish this?
Thanks for any reply.
Aart

Hi Aart,
Yes, you can use BADI to protect the BOM items from not to change the BOM items in Process order.
In one of our project we have taken the help from the ABAPer, has has done the same thing.
Then we have acheived the same requirement.
You check with the ABAPer, he will help you for the requirement.
Thanks

Planned cost for process order

Can we see the planned order cost of a process order before confirmation?If can how is it done?
