Uploading cost element cost planning figures

Dear PS Masters,
How can we upload the cost element cost planning figures in Project System instead of entering them manually in transaction CJ40

It would be better if you could get in touch with your ABAP guys and ask them to help you out in this. Else you could search the internet and you will find lot of links that explain LSMW step by step.
Better consult your ABAP consultant.

Forecast for planning over the Cost element/Cost center with KP06

Hi all
I'm searching a idea: one of our chief controller need to insert a "forecast" of budget inserted over the various cost elements/cost centers using the transaction KP06. THe problem is that he don't want lost the budget because he can need the reload the previous budget data during the year if the actual situation change. Obvisiously the insertion of the forecast overwrite the budget data over the version 0. This forces us to download over a file the budget and archive it, and reload it eventually. But this solution, a part the programming effort, don't permit to have both the data at the same time in the system. Exist a pratical customizing solution in CO for manage a "forecast"? Our release is 46c.
thanks
Davide

Thanks Pascal.
Some questions (i dont' have a CO background ):
>execute charge transferts and plan distribution in the new >version
Can you explicate me these concepts (or the transaction used for make this, probably I know this but in italian the name is different)? The KP47 copy the value over the single cost element or only the total of cost center?
>KP98 is the transaction to copy postings from version 0 to >another version. In this case version 0 is the template.
Are you sure? The KP98 have the description "Copy by actual version to planned version", the KP97 "copy from planned to planned"
thanks in advance

Go to CJR2 t-code select the layout 1-702 and enter the wbs, cost element, periods, year and version and execute the transaction. Then enter the values and save.

In controlling secondary cost element cost is considerble for financial rep

in controlling secondary cost element cost is it considerble for financial reporting requirment. In controlling for pm orders based on planning in kp26 they are booking man hours activity price. when at time of confirm of the order planning converted to actual.
Client is giving activity price based on primary cost, when we plan the activity price It will double booking what we incured in primary cost. let me clarify for financial report requirment can we consider secondary cost or not

Hi,
Secondory cost is a re allocation of Primary cost. It should not be considered if you are considering primary cost. Secondary cost is used for analysis and should not be confused with Primary cost
Ex. Cost gets collected to cost centers, The activity is a carrier which carries cost to Process/ production order. So that doent mean that the cost is gernerated twice once you book the financial and second when you acutally allocate the cost.
In controlling we allocate the cost in a more meaningful way to get the required analysis which will support the decision.
So both the cost should not be considered
This may be useful

For financial report requirment can we consider secondary cost element cost

For financial reporting requirment can we consider secondary cost element cost to profit and loss a/c

In our senario _ cost is booking cost centers and revenues booking concern profit centers .
for Financial reporting requirment can I include secondary cost to profit and loss a/c
what is the impact on the report
exp: salary booking in primary cost,than Per hour man hour cost computed by costing dept for allocate to concern department
it is cost center activity price we specify in kp26 at the time of pm order confirm it will confim the activity quandity price will from planning area only, so for salaries in primary g/ls already captured, if we consider secondary it may double booking

Cost Element Cost center breakup

How can i craate a report painter report for Cost element, cost center breakup???
pl help in creation.
Regards
Reddy

Go to GRR2. Double-click on the row All Values under Cost Elements/Costs Centers. Remove cost center in the pop up screen and click on the check mark to continue. Now, create another column for the cost center. Bear in mind that, you can only do this in the copy you created.
Please disregard my earlier suggestion. Because if you do, it will change the whole format of the report and will not produce a suitable result.

Cost Center & Cost Element Excel Planning Profile Error - KP06

Hi,
I have created a layout for cost center/cost element planning.after that i have created planner profile.but while saving the generic file,i am getting the below error and not able to save that.Kindly advice me.
A later upload is not possible with this layout
Message no. K9363
Diagnosis
The layout cannot be used for an upload. This can be caused by one of the following situations:
The layout does not contain a data field that is ready for input.
The layout has a lead column that only contains the text for the characteristic value and not the characteristic value itself
The layout contains formulas
The layout has a complex lead column and contains empty lines.
System response
If generic file names have already been created (that is, an upload is intended), the file description cannot be saved.
Procedure
If you want to use the layout for an upload, configure it accordingly.
If one of the last three situations is the case, the layout can only be used for manual planning and not for an upload. In this case, remove the generic file name.
Thanks
Supriya

Hi Supriya,

Delete Cost Element after Plan data posted

A user created Cost Elements in error and posted fiscal 2010 Plan data, however the business users wish to track these particular accounts by profit center, not by cost center. We'd like to delete the cost elements so users will not be prompted for cost center when posting to these accounts.
But even after reversing the plan data, we are not permitted to delete these cost elements with KA04, - hard error cites records existing in Table COSP.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Yes, you can't shorten the validity to exclude the posting data from the system, even though you made the balance zero by posting off-setting entries to that particular cost element.
Yes, shortening the validity works the same way as deletion.
Hope this helps.

COST Element Based Planning

Hello All,
We are trying to plan cost of WBS Element based on cost elements.
what we are trying to do -
> CJ40, we want to plan on cost element level so on clicking the button "primary costs" (or via the menu: "Extras -> detailed planning -> Primary costs") we end up in an error message saying -
Group INT-2 does not contain any entries
Message no. K8004
Diagnosis
Group INT-2 does not contain any single values. You cannot use it in planning.
System Response
The SAP System rejects the planning layout and your entry.
Procedure
Use either a different group or enter values for group INT-2.
CONFIGURATION for Planning Profile (T Code - OPSB) for the planning profile used in WBS Element Primary cost element group assigned is INT-2.
Question2
- Does cost element planning influenced by the cost element group assigned in the planning profile.
- How to solve this error.
Points assured.
Warm Regards,
Jatinder Bansal

this is because in planning profile (Txn OPSB) you have INT-2 as cost element group and there are no cost elements assigned as pointed out by Venkat
use transaction CJR2 instead of CJ40 and then plan for any cost element group or cost element that you already have

Summary Report by Cost Element/Cost Center.

Hi SAP Experts,
Could you please help me in generating the following report.
I/Customer need the cost center + the cost element + the dollars + the quantity (SKF) + the currency - in the same report.
Could you please tell me from which table I need to retrieve the above fields.
Thanks for all your help in advance
Regards,
Rajkumar.

Hi Akhilesh,
Thanks for your help. Your answer helped me very much.
The customer wants summary report by Cost Element i.e
SKFActual(SKF Qty)Cost CenterCostElementDollars+Report Currency.
First 2 fields (SKF+Actual - SKF Qty) we got from S_ALR_87013611 report. Then we double clicked on SKF then it will take to KSB1 transaction code(as said by you) there we got the rest of the fields.
Currently we are developing the same Custom Report but it should show by summary i.e by Cost Element.
Could you please tell me what Tables and Data types we need to refer?
Again, I wish to hear from you soon.
Thanking you,
Regards,
Raj

Cost element/activity type planning upload

Hi,
When doing the cost element/activity type planning upload via KP06, can I assign only one characteristic in the element definition level? Because I want to put in the excel upload layout the cost elements, cost centers and activity types. But ECC 6.0 is allowing only one characteristic in the element definition level. Has anyone encountered this problem?
Thanks and best regards,
Thess

Hello,
This is controlled by planning are in your planning profile. You need to use "Cost ctrs: Cost element/activity inputs" planning area for this purpose.
Hope you are conversant with Integrated excel upload.
To do integrated excel upload of cost center plan data.
IMG ==> Controlling ==> Cost Center Accounting ==> Planning ==> Manual Planning User Defined Layouts - Create your own layout or copy from standard layout and change it.
IMG ==> Controlling ==> Cost Center Accounting ==> Planning ==> Define User Defined Planner Profiles
Copy the SAPALL to ZSAPALL. You cannot change SAPALL as it is standard.
In ZSAPALL planner profile, select proper planning area and enter your layout.
Tick Integrate Excel.
Once the popup for KP06 comes, you need enter the data and save it. It would generate the file name.
With the same file name you need upload the plan data by using KP06.
In KP06
Extras ==> Excel Planning ==> Upload
Select the file as prepared in accordance with format at the time of generating the file name.
Hope this solves your problem.
Please let me know if you need futher help.

Ravi

Planning on WBS elements without cost elements

Hi all,
we are trying to implement the planning solution where users will be able to plan on individual WBS elements monthly but without providing a breakdown on cost elements. Standard SAP planning profiles allow to post plan values on WBS elements in annual view without cost elements. But when you want a monthly view the system you need to click on primary cost elements planning first.
Is there any way to plan monthly but at cost object (WBS) level only?
Many thanks,
Roman

Hi Eli,
thanks for your response. We will be using budget functionality for budget purposes but at the same time we will need to use planning on different versions. I believe there are no versions for budget.
One of the idea to minimize cost element planning is to introduce like a planning cost element to use with all planning postings and then include this into the same cost element group with the rest of cost elements for plan/actuals comparison reports.
If you have something in your mind I would appreciate your input.
Thank you,
Roman

Sales Pricing without Inquiry using detailed Cost element Planning

Deal All,
I need to use use Sales Pricing without Customer Inquiry to Genrate Quatation from Project.
In my project client is asking to use deatiles cost element planning for same. So, let me know
Weather its possible to use Detailed cost element planning for doing Sales pricing in DP82
or Do we need to use ECP only to do Sales Pricing??
Also, let me know if there will be any change in RA method also.
regards,
Atul

Hi Atul,
You can use any of the cost planning method (i.e Details cost element planning, ECP or Network Costing) to create Quotation using DIP Profile.
Coming to the second point..any effect on RA calculation..This Quotation creation process is no where effects RA calculation.
basically for creating Quotation usign DIP Profile, there should be cost element wise planned cost required.
Hope this clears you...
regards,
Hari.
