Urgent issue on... Product costing

Hi all,
I am working for a process industry, Here my client is having a fixed amount of mechine cost and Catalyst cost which would be amortized on monthly basis to the production orders.
apart from those costs laboratory cost is also charged on monthly basis to total quantity of production to arrive at cost per metric ton.
How can we charge this? shall we need to use any activity type for this?
this is not charged at the workcenter level but can be charged at production order level for the total quantity produced on monthly basis.
Please advise..
Any help will be greatly appricited..
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Kumar.

  • Actual Activity allocation and Planned and actual activity comparison issue in Product Costing

    Friends,
    I have tried to explain the issue i am facing currently under Product Costing......
    1.Cost Component Structure
    10 – Material
    20 – Labour
    30 – Diesel

    Dear Rajneesh,
    I have made the changes as suggested....
    It seems now my Order Cost analysis and Product cost analysis are showing the same figures.
    I have also maintained cost center splitting structure for ELE30 Activity allocation.

    In my case actual activity confirmed is 3.1 for 2 orders in period 5
    Order 1 - QTY 2
    Order 2 - QTY 1.1
    Total actual Electricity exp is 1150 in period 5
    followed procedure to post actual activity on product is mentioned below
    KSS2 Actual cost splitting - Result as expected 1150 for ELE30
    KSII Actual price determination - Result as expected 3.1 actual confirmed QTY for ELE30 with actual price

  • Error while adding  the issue for production (item cost not found)

    Hi all,
    The scenario is,
    when the user is trying to add the issue for production system is showing error item cost not
    found.The item which is issued is Inventory + purchase item with manual issue method.The valuation
    method for that item is FIFO.since the valuation method is FIFO,error related to item cost should
    not occur.
    Since the valuation method is FIFO.Item cost error should not occur.
    The error related to item cost must not occur at the time of issue for production.

  • Issues adding variable production cost

    Hi
    I am having issues to find the correct way to add production cost.
    I know that basically a labour item that has cost in master data (Standard method) is added to the BOM and will then be added to the production order. However, this is a fixed cost, and even the same cost for every BOM/production oder.
    How can I add variable cost to the production that i can easily change at the end of the production?
    additional ...: I do receive invoices from external companies for the production/assembling - mostly some weeks after the production. Ho do i enter them into the system? Is there a way to link the received invoice to the cost of a production order?
    Thanks for your help
    Franz

    Thanks for your answer!
    Here's what I am going to do ... maybe someones interested in this too:
    - Create an item with standard cost evaluation and a standard cost of 1$ (I plan to use this in BOM for production cost and purchase, mainly)
    - Make this item a non-inventory, sales- and purchasing item
    - Add a price to the price list (needed if used in sales and BOM sales calculations)
    - Add the item, with a quantity relative to the production cost (external work) to be added, to the BOM / production order (i.e. 15.5)
    - Use the item to issue a PO for this external work
    - The production cost will be included in cost calaculation of item
    - The invoice for the external work can be added to the system and the item does not have to be reevaluated

  • Product costing issues

    1)what is different bitwen with quantity structureand with out quantity structure?
    2)what is valvated stocks and non valvated stocks?
    3)what is the need of cost component structure , how many segments can be define in cost component structure?
    4)how we are going to do work ing progress in product cost
    5) what are the status in order, types of order?

    Dear Pradeep,
    1.Material Is Costed with Quantity Structure
    This indicator determines whether the material is costed using costing with or without a quantity
    structure.
    This setting can be found in Costing1 view in the material master.
    Use
    If you usually cost materials using costing with quantity structure, turn on this indicator.
    If you usually cost materials using costing without quantity structure, do not turn on this indicator.
    You can change the indicator in the material master record at a later time.
    Procedure
    If you always cost your materials (including raw materials) using costing with quantity structure, you
    should turn on this indicator. This improves performance, because the system does not search in vain
    for existing cost estimates without a quantity structure for every material when it explodes the BOM.
    Therefore, only turn on this indicator if you normally cost the materials using costing without quantity
    structure.
    Regardless of the setting, you can cost a single material with or without quantity structure. However,
    you should bear in mind that this setting is always used in the costing run and in mixed costing
    (creating procurement alternatives).
    CK11N and CK40N is used for costing material with quantity structure.
    KKPAN is used for creating material cost estimate without quantity structure.
    2.Valuated stock is the stock of the materials maintained in value basis,it may be under Restricted use
    or non-restricted use .
    Nonvaluated materials (UNBW)
    Nonvaluated materials are managed on a quantity basis, but not by value.
    5.status in a production order are for Eg,
    REL  Released               
    PCNF Partially confirmed    
    PRC  Pre-costed             
    BCRQ Order to be handled in b
    GMPS Goods movement posted  
    MANC Mat.availability not che
    PDLV Partially delivered    
    SETC Settlement rule created
    So after performing each business funtion the status of the production order changes.

  • Product costing by sale order(urgent)

    Dear all,
    1. Please tell me all the configuration steps to do product costing by sale order.
    2. Also please tell me how to test it after configuring.
    3. Please explain me the end user part also.
    I will award full points.
    Thanks & Regards,
    A.Anandarajan.

    Hi,
    Product cost by sales order is useful when  a finished product is manufactured  for a specific customer rather than for the normal make-to-stock inventory. You can use the Product Cost by Sales Order component in the following situations:
    When you are manufacturing in-house with reference to a sales order in complex make-to-order production
    When you are purchasing customer-specific trading goods with reference to a sales order and reselling them to your customers
    When you are providing services whose costs are assigned to a sales order
    When you want to collect the sum of the actual costs incurred for the sales order item on the sales order item (standard cost of goods manufactured of sales plus variances) For detailed information, refer to the sections Valuated Sales Order Stock and Settlement in Product Cost by Order or Period.

  • Issue Relating to Power Cost in Daily Product Costing

    Hi,
    We are doing daily product costing. Here we want to allocate the power units of service to production cost centers proportionately on daily basis. Can anyone tell me is there any option in SAP and we need to go for development.

    hi,
    Power usage or cost can be apportioned only monthly wise not possible on daily basis. U can run the distribution or assessment cycle only for month wise, but not on daily basis.

  • Issue with Standard Cost estimates / Material Ledger

    Background:
    We have been using SAP for the last 5 years with Material Ledger active. Due to a number of reasons, we have not revised its standard cost estimates from 2001 till now. This means that at month end, we do not mark and release prices as recommended, nor do we mark prices and use dynamic release.
    What Happened:
    A new material called PFSW3 was made. This is a FERT. Before production
    could start my team released the standard cost estimate for this material. Production was now able to proceed without problem. Then, when the time came to sell the material (VF02), SAP again raised the error 'cost estimate not found'. On checking the standard price in MM03, we discovered that the future cost estimate was missing. So we created and marked a new cost estimate in the middle of February 2007.
    Problem:
    When the first sale took place, SAP released the marked cost estimate and posted a Price Change document to adjust for the new standard cost. I understand this was due to dynamic release. Now, when month end came, the system settled all the production orders of material PFSW3 but did not do multi level costing on it.
    Internal Investigation:
    My team has determined that the material PFSW3 has price determination 2 set by mistake. All our other production materials (HALB and FERT) are
    set to price determination 3 in the material master (accounting view).
    Questions:
    To sum this situation up,
    we need to know why the material PFSW3 was not marked closed in its period status (CKM3) at the time of closing through CKMLCP?
    What are the implications of not closing this material in Feb 2007 (current period status is showing 'Quantities and values entered')?
    How can we close this material this month?
    The future cost estimate is again missing for PFSW3 in March 2007 and I
    fear we are going to face more problems as this material is sold to customers.
    Please respond this is an urgent issue.

    Dear Shumyl,
    Please, have a look at Note 645083 - Material period status set to "Closing Entry Completed" that might help to closing your material in previous period.
    Hope it will be useful.
    Regards,
    Flaviano.

  • Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
    Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
    When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
    By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
    Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
    Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
    And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
    Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
    many thanks!

    problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.

    The settlement profile used requires you to define a distribution rule for Order. For period 009 2008, however, you have not created a distribution rule for Order.
    Procedure
    Create a distribution rule for Order without a validity limit, because, if the distribution rule does have a validity limit, the system always issues this message in the period following the last valid period.
    You can also use a different settlement profile that does not require such a distribution rule, or change the settlement rule used.
    Can any one help where exactly i need to maintain this.
    The settlement profile settings are fine.
    I am getting this error only after i have changed the scenario to Reproting point back flushing

    Dear Suryanarayana
    Please check the corresponding settlement profile for product orders.
    In most of the cases message KD059 means that no distribution rule is assigned to your production order.
    This is not an error, but the system design. In order to avoid message KD059 you will either have to enter settlements parameters and a distribution, or change settlement profile for valid receivers in transaction OKO7 from 'settlement required' to 'Can be settled'.
    I hope this helps resolve the issue for you. I wish you the best in your endeavours.
    Kind Regards,

  • Product Costing  - Message CK 318 ()

    Hi Experts,
    While executing product cost calculation for material YYY we had warning message CK318 - Cost estimate for material XXX contains errors -> Planned price). XXX is a component used in YYY and the message was issued because we did not have price for XXX. We are now able to proceed with standard cost release for YYY.
    As I remembered previously, if you have an error in lower level, the higher level material would have been costed with error too. Seems that this is no longer the case. 
    I am not sure if this has changed in standard system in ECC 6 or we have to change message control for this message from Warning (W) to Error (E) but it seems the system reaction is not logical to me.
    Thanks for shedding insights into this.

    HI Teck,
    Can you go to OKKN, and quantity structure tab and check out the 'transfer active std cost meates if material costed with errors check box?
    Best Regards

    Please help me how to fix above problem.
    Thank you.

    Check following points,
    Probably material might be split valuated,Check price is maintained for all valuation types including header in MM60.
    Check price is maintained in info record.
    Check type of procurement in MRP2,it will be external procurement - F.
    Do product cost estimate using KKF6N.
    Check production version is maintained in MRP4 ?
    Check throughly all masters vendor,info record & material master.
    It will solve the issue.
