Dear,
Identify the PA settlement structure assigned to Assessment cycle using transaction KEU2 and then check this PA settlement structure in transaction KEI2. Here assign the cost element to the value field for valid assignment.

Difference between value category and cost element

Hi I am new to SAP Pm.can anyone explain me the difference between value category and cost element and how are they linked with examples

HI Pallavi,
Value Category are use to devide your total cost in to diffrent elements for example Material, External Services, Internal Services etc. If you dont have any value category configured then all cost will show together.
Cost Element are the cost collector where your cost will be booked means different cost under different Elements.
So What you need to do You need to create one Value category Like material or any thing then you need to assign all Cost Elements which will be used to book cost related to Material or that perticular category. You can assign Cost Element directly, range or as a group to these category under SPRO.

Cost Elements and COPA Value Fields

Hi All,
Should all the cost elements created in CO be assigned to value fields in Costing Based COPA?
I am a bit confused . . .
Regards,
Ravi Kumar

Hi ravi,
Basically fist you understood, how the values are flowing into the CO-PA. ie When ever billing document generated co-pa document generates automatically. based on your condition type and account keys.
While defining pricing procedure, they mapped the conditon type against releavant account key.
Based on the releavant account key they assigned releavant cost element under VKOA.
Against these condtion types they assgined value filed under KE4I in co-pa.
This is the way system will capture cost elemetns under copa. KIndly revert in case any issue.

Manual/Autometic creation of cost elements in chart of accounts field

Dear Friends,
While creation of Chart of accounts (OB13) under Controlling Integratiion tab
thers is two options are there.
1 manual creation of cost elements
2 autometic creation of cost elements.
While creation of cost elements if we select
(MANUAL CREATION OF COST ELEMENTS) what will happen???
(AUTOMETIC CREATION OF COST ELEMENTS) what will happen?
What is the main difference between about two fields?
Thanks in advance,
Mallika

Hi,
MANUAL CREATION OF COST ELEMENTS - Cost elements maintained manually. A push button is available for
this purpose, with which you can go directly to the related cost
element.
AUTOMETIC CREATION OF COST ELEMENTS - Cost elements maintained automatically. When you save a new G/L
account, the related cost element is automatically created. A prerequisite is that a default value for the cost element category
has been set up for this cost element. If no default value is found, the system will not create a cost element.
You can make default settings via :
Cost Element accounting --> master data --> cost element --> automatic creation of primary and secondaru cost element --> make default settings

There are values for cost element 80000 that are not assigned to any line I

Hi,
While calulating WIP I am getting below error:
There are values for cost element 80000 that are not assigned to any line ID
Message no. KJ161
Diagnosis
Not all values for the cost element are assigned to a line ID.
Procedure
Assign the cost element to a line ID. If you don't want to include the cost element in results analysis, assign it to a line ID of category N.
You can access a detailed list of unassigned cost elements as follows: Start results analysis in the individual processing mode (transaction KKA1, KKA2, or KKA3). Select the field Full log. Execute the function. On the next screen, choose Logs -> Parameter List in the menu. A list is generated. The unassigned values are shown at the end of the list.
If cost element "+++++++++" was shown in the message, this is because in the assignment of costs and revenues to line IDs, you have not used a cost element other than the full masking "+++++++++". In this case a presummarization eliminates the information on the cost element.
Cost Element 80000 is of type 43 Internal activity allocation, I have Masked this in OKGB as below:
Controlling Area = FLGP
RA Version = 0
Masked Cost Element = 000008++++
Masked Cost Center = ++++++++++
Masked Activity Type = +++++
ReqToCap= COS (Secondary Cost)
I have Configure OKGA also but still system is giving error.
Please help me to understand.
Regards,
Vivek

I was wondering if you could help me I am trying to configure the RA key for Refurb orders and when I go into txn OKGB for the Assignment of C/E for WIP there is sample config already there which I copied. But I am having difficulty getting the KK1A to work I am getting the message as outlined above. Could you explain how this OKGB works and how to configure it a bit more fully. In my sample config there is a ReqTOCap section and in it there are letters like ABR, EK, FK, EL what do they mean. This is a screen shot of it. I am not sure how to go about this entirely so any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated. Can you suggest a good resource or documentation you may have, would be greatly appreciated.

Assign direct material cost to value field in copa while issue to Prod orde

Dear All,
My requirement is like this:
There are some 16 material groups from A to P each containing some materials(finished goods).
I want to allocate overhead to different material groups(Charecteristic in copa) in COPA using the periodic assesment cycles. I am able to allocate overhead(admin & sales cost) to different value fields in copa from different cost centers.
I want to analyse the product cost and also the profitability of each material group in COPA using Report painter. Iam able to pull all the costs which i assign to value fields using assessment. But, i am NOT able to get the direct material cost which is issued to production orders using BOM.
My question is whether we can assign the direct material cost to any user defined value field(material cost value field) while the material is being issued to production orders. Is there any automated way where we can directly assign the direct material cost to value field in copa while issuing the material to Production orders.
Pls explain me whether we can do it. if yes how?
Thank you very much in advance.
Regards,
Vishnu

PA is a Profitability analysis tool. That means it gets updated when a sale is made, not before. (Except for settlements and assessment of overheads.)
Goods issues for production gets updated in CO-PC, and needs to be analysed there. If you don't, you loose all the inbuilt tools for variance analysis, cost estimate comparisons, Wip Calculation etc. To the best of my knowledge, a Profitability Segment cannot be used as a cost object in Production Planning, because amongst others, you need to be able to capitalise the produced materials to stock at the end of the production run, or to WIP at the end of the Financial period,which is not possible with PS.
Similarly, overheads are recorded in CCA and needs to be analysed there.
If one goes against these big groupings in SAP, you always run into problems.

*Message no. K9050
Diagnosis
You maintained several characterisic values for characteristic Cost Element in layout maintenance or in the entry screen for planning.
Within these characteristic values
individual values appear more than once
individual values are included in an inteval

These duplications and overlaps are not forseen in planning.
System Response
The entries for characteristic Cost Element are rejected.

Hi,
Step1. Go to CJ40.
enter in the cost planning area->Select the topmost line item->Primary cost.
Then Extras->Group Display--> Cost element
Is it the same what you have checked in the KAH2?
Step2: Then check Extras---> Error Log
Step3: Then check Extras--->Diplay Profile
Step4: Now Go to Tcode: KP34 and check the layout assigned to WBS elements: Cost element/acty inputs and make sure the check mark is present against it in item column.
Step 5: Now check Extras--> Display Profile.
Make sure its same as that of Step4.
Hope its useful.
Reward points if useful.
Thanks..

Activity types cost Elements not reflecting in Cost Centre Report.

Hello SAP Gurus,,
1. Here we are facing one issue in Zreport. total is not matching, compare with KSB1.
Values are more in Zreport, in other words activity type cost elements are not reflecting in Zreport, but it reflecting in KSB1.
example: flow from PM module.
Actually we had used logic based on the Cost Centres, in that cost centre by taking Object number and it passes to COEP table, then we are getting values as same as KSB1.
As per investigation i found that the object number is differ from COEP table and CSKS table.
Exapmple : 1410000 object number in CSKS table, 1410000EL in COEP table, thats why in Zreport these values are not reflecting.Finally our requirment is , Zreport values should same as KSB1 vlaues.
2. We need same functionality as same as KSB1 for match code or drop down menu functionality for Cost Centre Group and Cost Element Group, but while user wants select from match code or drop menu (F4), as of now i didnt given any logic to abap for match code functionality or drop down menu (F4),so in this case which logic or table i have to use.
So please give me inputs or logic how to over come the above points.
Regards,
Raj.

The OBJNR field structure is as follows :-
AABBBBCCCCCCCCCCDDDDDD
AA = object type eg. KS (cost center)
BBBB = controlling area
CCCCCCCCCC = cost center
DDDDDD = activity type
Based on the structure, you will be able to filter the relevant cost center/activity types. You can also use other fields eg. cost element, partner object, source object, value type, etc. to get your desired figures as per KSB1.

Cost elements for WIP (TCODE : OKGA)

Hi All,
I am working with Production Order wip calculation, varaince and settlement.
In the RA key configuraion,(for WIP calculation)In OKGA, tcode we define, the cost elements for a perticular line id, for WIP calculation.
I wanted to know, what is the purpose of these two cost elements.
If I execute line item report, I dont see any value on these cost elements, after wip calc and settlement.
However, I see the work in process on it, in the layout. I want to know, the exact purpose of these cost elements assignment.
Is there any internal controlling document that is getting posted?
Regards
SR

Hi Swastik,
Those cost elements (category 31) are used to calculate and store WIP values at the detailed level of so called line IDs.
Line IDs are groups of cost elements that were posted to production order.
For example you can calculate and store WIP separately for Raw Materials, Semis, Activities and overhead.
You can also settle them to different GL Accounts via mapping in txn.OKG8.
Hope it helps,
Szymon

Value Field Analysis

Hello gurus
Actually i am not a consultant but i have query, like the client where i am working with has recently implemented SAP. But the problem is that CO and FI is not Reconciled so they told me to find the differences and their possibilites. Can anyone tell me how i can find the G/L mapping against value field like in specific value field which G/L are mapped. Kindly tell me any T-code or the process for this.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Hassan Ali

Hi..
The system uses the flows of actual values to transfer data from other module to value fields in CO-PA.
You should understand the flows of actual values through the below sap help portal site to find the G/L mapping against value field.
Flows of Actual Values - Profitability Analysis (COPA) - SAP Library
In case of Billing Documents, Values in billing documents are assigned to condition types in SD, accounts in FI and value fields in CO-PA.
You can use t-code KEAT to reconcile the data between FI and CO-PA.
Refer to http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_07/helpdata/en/40/c52df80d1e11d2b5cf0000e82de856/content.htm.
In case of Direct Postings from FI, all assignments of values and quantities to the value fields in costing-based CO-PA are defined using the PA transfer structure "FI“ through the following IMG path: Profitability Analysis->Flows of Actual Values->Direct Posting from FI/MM->Maintain PA Transfer Structure.
Refer to http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_07/helpdata/en/7a/4c3aba4a0111d1894c0000e829fbbd/content.htm?frameset=/en/7a/4c48c64a0111d1894c0000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
In case of Periodic Overhead Allocation, the cost of cost centers is transferred into co-pa using PA Transfer Structure for Assessmentof co-pa cycles.
Refer to http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_07/helpdata/en/7a/4c3ac74a0111d1894c0000e829fbbd/content.htm?frameset=/en/7a/4c48c64a0111d1894c0000e829fbbd/frameset.htm

Statistical Cost Element / category 90

Hello all:
I have create statistical cost element with category 90 .
I assign one cost center to Asset too.
Then I do f-90 to acquisition asset already, it really debit my G/L reconciliation (which I have stat cost element =90)
but which report I can see report total of this stat cost element ? with cost center that I assign in G/L?
Standard cost actual /plan report (S_ALR_87013611) not show the value of statistical cost element???
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Manthana

Hi,
that is right, the S_ALR_87013611 (report 1SIP-001) is only selecting value type 4. You can copy the report 1SIP-001
and create a customer-defined report in GRR1. After that, you can add the value type 11 to the column definition
in GRR2.

Greta
