URGENT........ACTIVITY TYPE AND THEIR ASSIGNEMENT TO WORK CENTER!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Friends,
I have A REAL URGENT REQUIREMENT as far as activity type and assignment to Work Center is concerned.
I work for a client who is a manufacturer of Paint equipment. I'm responsible for capturing the cost of an assembly activity of spray guns, which is the last step of routing. However, there are 4 processes/steps of routing which are outsourced to the subcontracting vendors. we recieve the facbricated, anodised guns which are assembled in our factory.
I need to get the cost of assembly, which I have created as an actvity type in KL01 and planned for the same using KP26. However the system is throwing up errors related to costing, and I'm not sure about the assignment areas in work center.
And above all I'm not sure of various fields in KP26 like capacity field and what do we assign.
can anybody help me with the series of steps for me to be able to pick up the cost. or if there is any sort of material in this regards, plz mail it to: __ email removed by moderator

Hi,
You need to do the following:
1) Create an Activity type for the Assembly activity.
2) Define a Work Centre in PP (T-Code CR01) which represents the location where the Assembly is carried out.
3) Define a Cost Centre corresponding to the above Work Centre.
4) Plan for the Activity quantity for the combination of the Cost Centre and Activity type (KP26)
5) Plan for the Overhead Costs which are incurred on this Cost Centre which need to be included in the Standard cost of the Assembly.(KP06)
6) Assign the Cost centre & Acivity type to the Work Centre in CR02.(This is possible only after you do 5 above)
7) Execute the Plan price calculation (T-code KSPI)
After you do all of the above, when you do the Costing Run, all the relevant costs will be picked.
Ofcourse all the relevant master data for PP like BOM, Routing with the relevant assignments of materials to operations, etc should be in place.

Assign points if useful

Report to see user type and roles assigned to users in EP?

Hi,
a) Is there any reporting mechanism in EP? Any specific report which throws up user types and roles assigned to the users? There is an option of 'Export' in the user management role but unfortunately it does not give information on User Type.
b) If the group is assigned a role, How can we see ( in any report) the roles assigned to a group? In the 'export' option of the 'User Management' this information does not come.

By default Portal UME comes along with the installation of portal.
Sometimes we may integrate external users using LDAP. At that time users come from ABAP stack or some active directories. But you can also create users in the portal UME. The purpose of using LDAP is to maintain the users centrally rather than creating again in portal.
You can check them in user administration->identity management and search for the users.
THere you can see some users will be from UME and some from LDAP.
User Admin tool is nothing but User Administration only.

Thanks in advance.

Activity type and CAT2

Hi friends,
my client have employee who had activity type for 2009 (ACS001) and we planned this activity type with cost center(2114200001) in kp26.
Belong 2010 year this person should not post in this activity type(ACS001), but other person with different cost centers can post in this activity type. So we not planning there cost center in kp26.
But the problem is when person create mistake and post in cat2 for this activity type(ACS001) some hours for 2010.
The system create only warn messages 'No activity prices exist for 2114200001/ACS001'.
When employee push enter the system accept record.
So i think that we have several decision:
1.With user rights to restrict activity type(ACS001).
2. Create new analysis period for ACS001. Now this period is from 01.2005 to 12.2999year.
and split in to periods 1 period 01.2005 - 12.2009 and 2 period from 01.2010 to 12.2999.
3.Create validation in HR
4.Change messages type BK - 057 from warn to error. Here i think that is impossible.
So how what type of decisions is better, and flexible?

HI,
2 possibilities:
1: OBA5 change message control, you can set this message to "ERROR" on SAP-user level.
2: If the combination of cost center 2114200001 and act. typa ACS001should not be used anymore in FY 2010 create a new validity interval for both masterdata and use the field "cost center category" in cost center master data / activity type master data to "unlink" cost center / act. type.

How to use Assignment Enforcement(Work Center Maintenance)

I thought that I was not able to start SFC in the work center which Assignment Enforcement is set in Enforced.
However, SFC was able to be begun and to be completed by using POD in the following situations.
Is the mistake found in my way to use Assignment Enforcement?
Product A can use just resource RSC01 in operation PR001.
Resource RSC01 is assigned to work center WC001.
I set Assignment Enforcement in Enforced.
And No user assign to work center WC001.
I start SFC at operation PR001 and resource RSC01.

Yousuke,
Let me quote the guru of ME first:
"The Assignment Enforcement option only applies to the actual assignments made in SWA (Rich Supervisor Work Assignment). If any assignments were made in SWA, then those will be enforced as defined by this rule. There is still one validation that is performed no matter how this option is set: The operator must still be in the W/C to perform the work in the Rich POD. We donu2019t want users from WC1 working in WC2, ever. That is why we always make this validation, even if the rule is set to None."
So, in case you use Rich POD, SWA and Assignment Enforcement option, then you should see the error message caused by Assignment Enforcement.

HR assignment to Work center

Hi All,
I am having few queries with the above subject.
My customer is asking that he will assign persons(from HR) to the work centers. and based on the assignments done he want some functionality like
1. At the time of operation confirmation through CO11N in the person field only assigned persons(in Work center) should be available
2. At the time of capacity availability check system should check the person attached to work center only. e. g. suppose two persons for 8 hrs are assigned to work center then if order need 18 labor hours, in this case system should tell that capacity is not available. and then if third person added to Work center master then it will tell capacity is available.
Now my question is :
Whether above requirements are possible? if yes then please please tell me how to do?\
Millions of thanks in advance.

Hi Jigar B patel,
Well Work center is the main integration part for both PP and HR OK.
As your requirement is to maintain the responsible person for the work center follow the path:
1) SPRO -
> PRODUCTION -
> BASIC DATA -
> WORK CENTER -
> GENERAL DATA -
> DETERMINE PERSON
    RESPONSIBLE.
2) GO TO THE PARTICULAR WORK CENTER YOU ARE USING THROUGH T-CODE CR02 OR CR03 OK.
    THEN GO TO THE TAB CAPACITIES TAB DOWN THERE ARE PUSH BUTTONS THE VERY FIRST ONE IS CAPACITY BUTTON
    PRESS IT -
> YOU WILL GO TO CAPACITY HEADER SCREEN -
> ON THE TOP YOU CAN FIND PUSH BUTTON CALLED
    AVAILABLE CAPACITY PROFILE -
> ON THE TOP OF THE YOU CAN SEE A GRAPHIC PRESS IT THERE YOU CAN GET AN
    IDEA OK.
   I hope it helps you.

Activity Type and Cost Element Assignment wrong

The cost element appearing in Transaction code KP26
( Activity type planning), should come through the master data of the activity type.
What I am observing in my system, that for the combination of the Cost center and Actvity type , in KP26 the same cost element is not appearing as per the master data of Activity type. And also the cost element filed is gray. It is happening for 2008 financial year only.
How to correct this problem?
Is there ant note to be applied.?
Kamlesh

This is normally a result of changing the CE while the Activity Type was active and in use (planned against and/or activity confirmed for some production orders).
One solution is to curtail the activity to the end of the period you are in and create a new one from the following period. Just beware that you may need to change the routings, splitting rules, etc. as well.
Cheers.

Use of activity types and cost splitting

Hi All,
We would like to track activities for cost centers, but don't necessarily have the need for a sending cost center/object. I understand in a traditional manufacturing set-up, you have sending and receiving cost objects that incorporate the use of activities. Our business is a service that we provide, not a tangible product that we produce.
Here is the scenario. We have activities that a cost center performs. Cost center 1 will perform 2 types of "pick-up" activities, so this would require two activity types. Throughout the course of the month, the activity quantities would get posted to the cost center. So my first question is how can you post only quantities to a cost center--what is the t-code? We're not concerned with incorporating an activity price, we just want quantities.
Second, as primary costs get posted to the cost center in FI, we want to split the costs onto the activities. I have researched t-code KSS2 and can't seem to split the primary costs based on the activity quantities. It keeps refering to target costs, which I don't really want to have to worry about.
What we're trying to do is a makeshift ABC scenario. Since the use of true abc seems almost non-existent, there's not much info out there on it. Does anybody have any good docs on abc in SAP?
Thanks

Hi,
1. I understood your case in this way .
Cost Center A performs 2 activities . The cost center collects cost by Fi posting through out the month.
Now you want the activity type should nt have price , only it should have quantities.
And now you want to allocate the cost of the cost center to other object by activity types.
If i am right..
then instead of activity types why not create SKF(statistical key figures) . At the month end by t.code Kb31n post the activity qts. for combination of cost center and SKFs.
Then as per your requirement run allocation cycle.
The kind of you are planning , in that case activity types to be converted as cost object ( it can be done in control area setting) and then you want to allocate.. seems to be little complicated..
Hope i understood and in turn i conveyed the message properly..

Field Activity Type and Service Point Type from CC&B

Our customer is migrating their CIS to CC&B. It is my understanding that the CC&B Field Activity Type is similar to CIS Service Order without the Service Point Type. (Service Point Type is Water or Electricity)
The two valuescome from CC&B in their own fields.
QUESTION: Does MWM 1.5.0.8.1 and ORS need these fields to be concatenated from CC&B or are these fields automatically concatenated via the router before the field order is created in MWM and then sent to ORS?

Almost forgot - by default, it's one-to-one....but you can change this behavior.
In the direct integration from CCB to MWM, the MWM Field Order Type is actually CCB's "JOB_CD" (which is a characteristic on the Field Activity Type). You could set the same value for "JOB_CD" for numerous Field Activity Types in CCB.

Activity Types and Allocation Cost Element

Hi
What are the impact of having same Allocation Cost Element for different Activity Types. Is there any where we use this condition. SAP allows to have same allocation Cost Elements to different Activity Types, but i did not understand where we can utilizes this feature.
Thanks
Sivaram

Hi Sivaram,
in WIP customizing OKG5 you can assign specific cost center/activitity type combinations to different line-IDs, even though the same cost element is used. By this you can e.g. differentiate the value flow of one cost element in 2: one for capitalization, the other for non-capitalization.
Personally I would not recommend to use this and stick to the rule "one activity type - one cost element" - makes it easier for IT and controlling departments.

Activity Types and Cost Centres

Our PP is not yet live now.
While going through the system settings, it is found that many activities (approx. 15 for indirect expenses also) are planned in the Production Cost Centres.
However, these activities are not included in the master data of the Work Centre. Only one activity type is mentioned there for machining.
Then, what is the purpose of other activity types planned if they are not mentioned in the Work Centre ?
Is there any other way these activity costs will appear in the Cost report ?

Hi,
You are almost on the right line, activity quantities will be triggered in the cost center report based on the routing master and through the confirmation from the production orders.
For the creation of the work center - Activity Planning KP26 is required. Cost center/Activity
where we can plan the activity quantities.
Prior to that KP06 is required to plan the primary cost combination of (Cost Element/Cost center/Activity Type) where we can plan the cost.
Based on the above information we can calculate the plan price - KSPI
Based on the confirmation from the production orders activity quantities will be updated in the center report. cost will be updated with actual postings in the cost center.
So that you can calculate the actual activity price.
Please look into the blog for better understanding:

I Am looking for an app free app that will allow me to type and edit my homework. I am using a 7.1.1 version of I pad. I have a wireless printer from Walmart hp envy 4502 which is working great. Appreciate any input

Only two devices on our plan, so not so much an issue. And I have found myself using it much more than I thought I would when we got them (also first smart phones for both of us). Even got my wife to use hers for checking email while we were out of the country (big step forward for her ). I'm very interested in the ApplePay, but will want to wait a bit before diving into it. And since both phones are still in great working order, will likely wait a bit for the upgrade (sometime next year?). Will depend, I suppose, on the kinds of deals we see and what the plans turn out to be for updating my iPad and getting here one.

Material type and account assignment group relation

Hi,
Getting an error while creating material master save. Account assignment Zx can't be with Material Type Zxxxx.
Please advise where is the link maintained between material account assignment group and material type.
My material is Z service material.
As I no for plant,industry, material type valuation class quanity update tick required but that is for stockable materials which is not the case above.
Thanks

HI,
You can make the field Account Assignment Group of Material Master as inactive.
But it depends up on Plant, Industry Sector Type and Material Type.
You can do this in IMG --> Logistic General --> Material Master --> Field Selection
Or
use SHD0.. give T-code MM01. and you can deactivate the field.
Hope this helps you.
