Variance Calculation for Prod order

Deal All
I have problem when run prod order variance calculation (KKS2) for period 8 why the order for period 9 is also calculated ?
why this happen ?
Thanks and regards

Hi Aditya
The program is designed in a way that all open prod orders are considered in it.. however, variance will not be calculated on it
For eg: You calculate Var in 009 for period 008.. Prod order created in fag end of 008 and processing started in 009... During var cal, system will give an error for this prod order saying "Only rem variances can be calculated for it" or some error of that sort
you can ignore this error... I got a note released from SAP for this error.... however, that note is under reconstruction now and hence not available
You can raise an OSS msg mentioning note no 1320759 and ask them when it will be available again

WIP calculation for Prod.order with status TECO

Hello all.
My question is the similar to WIP calculation for Prod.order with status DLV
But I need that
- if the Production order has status TECO - the system calculate WIP
- if the Production order has status DLV u2013 the system settle the order.
1. I try to change u201CStatus Numberu201D in TCODE OKGC. But I have receive two different result:
- if I change u201CStatus Numberu201D for status DLV from 3 to 2, then during WIP calculation of the order with status DLV u2013 WIP have been calculated.
- but if I change u201CStatus Numberu201D for status TECO from 4 to 2, then during WIP calculation of the order with status TECO u2013 WIP have been CANSELED.
2. I try to change results analysis key for status TECO from u201CZu201D to u201CFu201D in TCODE OKG3. BUT during WIP calculation the system create error message KJ 363 which require that results analysis key must be change to u201CZu201D
How can I resolve my problem?

Hi,
I don't have the answer if the requirement is that even after producing the materials, till the time accountant checks the order and does this action, it should remain in WIP. Honestly it doesn't make any sense to me or i have not understood this problem. Anyways as per my current understanding I can suggest the following process for your scenario.
Once production is stopped in between the process, the order should be in PDLV status (partial confirmations happened in the order)
Now go and clear the reservations manually from the production order .( delete the component line items from the order). Now depending on whether you are following WIP at actual cost, system will post the difference between credit and debit of that production order as WIP for the month end process.
Once Accountant okays the entries in the production order, he can do the TECO and settle the order. Now WIP will be reversed and variance will be posted.
To avoid the already produced goods mixing up with your other stock, u might want use Quality Management with the help of your PP consultant.

Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI

Hi...
I have one query reference to Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
I am working on Varaint configuration with strategy 25(Make-to-order for configurable material) with requirement class 046.
I have created sales order ref. to configurable material,subsequently created planned order & then converted to production order.
In production order settlement receiver is SDI(Sales document item).
While doing production confirmation ,variance has been created.
Now during variance calculation KKS2, I have got error message as no suitable settlement rule found for object Order no.
Is there any way to come out of this?Or variance calculation KKS2 is not applicable with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
Pl. guide

Hi
In case of non valuated material, concept of variance does not apply...
Variance is Actual Cost - Cost of Goods receipt posted in stock.. If the later value is zero, your entire actual cost is variance... That is one way of saying it
But, in SAP, var not calculated in case of non valuated material and that makes sense as well.. Since you are in MTO scenario, it would make sense to analyse costs vs revenues @ sale order level as each SO will be unique in itself

WIP calculation for Prod.order with status DLV

Dear experts,
Is there any way to change WIP calculation method for Prod.order status ?
In t-code OKGC:: By default system will set:
Order status      Status number         RA type
REL                          2                             WIP Calculation on Basis of Actual Costs
DLV                          3                            Cancel Data of WIP Calculation and Results Ana
PREL                  1                            WIP Calculation on Basis of Actual Costs
TECO                  4                            Cancel Data of WIP Calculation and Results Ana
I can not change any thing in t-code OKGC (gray after insert: CO, RA version, RA key).
As I understanding: Prod.order with status DLV will not be considered to calculate WIP.
But I want to calculate WIP for Prod.order with status DLV. Could you pls guide me how to configure the system?
Thank you!

Hi,
I suppose it is positive variance as the yield from the order is 10 pieces more than the planned quantity of 1000 and it is always a variance and no WIP involved in this case. It can be settled to FI/PCA and to CO-PA by variance categories (if you have configured accordingly)
Therefore the accounting entry would be:
1. Delivery to stock of 10 pieces:
FG Debit
Change in Stock Credit
2. Variances will post the difference:
Change in Stock Debit
Price Difference is Credit
Concerning the valuation method it needs to be tested before it can be implemented.

Variance calculation for production order

Hello,
I am clarifying what's the selection criteria for settled production orders so that we can carry out the following
close and deletion flag activities.
I am currently in release ECC605. Need to carify the below questions.
1. For production order without header material (dismantle production order), no need to do variance calculation before
settlement,right? Because I found system will respond green light but "no order was processed", this kind of production order
won't possess "VCAL variance calcaulted" system status.
2. For all production orders created with header material, vairance calculation is a must, even the variance is 0.
So the production orders will possess "VCAL" status after variance calculation transaction is done.
Thanks for your help in advance.
B. Regards,
Nancy

How does input variance and output varia.nce will be calculated on the settlement of production order after TECO.
VARIANCE CALCULATION DEPENDS ON CONFIGURATION IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS,
1) VARIANCE VARIANT - DETERMINES WHAT VAREIANCE CATEGORIES ARE CALCULATED, E.G MATERIAL PRICE , USAGE, LABOUR RATE , USAGE VARIANCE ETC..
2) TARGET COST VERSIONS
3) VALUATION VARIANT FOR WIP AND SCRAP
Can we check in KOB3 or COOIS.
KOB3 - YES
COOIS - CHECK IN COST REPORT

Error during variance calculation for production order "NO cost estimate "

hi all,
I'm gettin this error message while trying to calculate the variance for a production order. error is "No cost estimate for material xxxx for 01.10.2008.
when i look at material xxx in MM02, under cost estimate for current period there is a value but nothing for previous period. So i'm guessing the the Cost estimate was not run of this material? am i correct here?
Now if i try to run cost estimate for material for the missing periods using CK11N, i get an error "cannot save for past period"
Could some one tell me how can i get a prior year estimate into the material master?
I tried CK40N and CKN1 but just cant get it to work...
Thanks heaps

Hi Tom
unfortunately there is no easy way to get a product cost estimate for a past date. One of the reasons for this would be inconsistant product valuation.
You could in theory create a cost estimate in a current date and use an ABAP or manually adjust the valid from and to dates directly in the tables (e.g. KEKO). To do this in a production environment would be restrictive off course.
The standard cost estimate is the basis for the target costs so as an alternative you could look to change the configuration of the target cost version in OKV6 to either of the following:
- Plan Cost/Preliminary Costing (that is the plan calc done on your production order)
- Alternative Material Cost Estimate (one that is not necessarily a product costing that is set for marking and release).
I hope this is of some help.

Actual activity price calculation for production order

Hi
Can any one guide me in how many ways we can assign actual activity price calculation for production order?
I knew only one way by assigning PPP2 costing variant?
I have another doubt is: if we don't mention any material valuation indicator (moving average, standard) in valuation variant, how system will calculate material prices? is there any other way, to recognize the prices by system?
regards,
Ramesh B

Dear,
Costing variant PPP2 is linked to some valuation variant inn OPL1
System will check the valuation of material and activity according to this valuation variant
For material valuation there are many stg acceding to which system will take the price the raw material,
Valuation strategy for material component
Strategy sequence that determines the valuation of the materials used in the cost estimate.
Use
The materials are valuated using the price in the material master record or the values calculated in a material cost estimate.
Procedure
You can enter a single strategy, or you can enter multiple strategies in the form of a strategy sequence. If you enter multiple strategies, the priority of the strategy determines what price or what values are selected.
Examples
Assume that the following strategy sequence is entered for material valuation:
1. Planned price 1
2. Standard price
3. Moving average price
If the system finds a value in the Planned price 1 field (costing view), this value is taken as the value for valuating the material.
If the system does not find a value, the value in the Standard price field (accounting view) is used.
If the material does not have a standard price, the system uses the value from the Moving average price field.
if you have not mentioned, then system will give error that "valuation stg not found"
Valuation strategy for internal activities and processes-
Strategy sequence that determines how internal activities and processes are valuated in costing.
Use
The activities and business processes used are valuated with the prices from Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to determine the production costs or process costs. The prices can either be calculated iteratively through price calculation, or entered manually by the user.
Procedure
You can enter either a single strategy or more than one strategy in the form of a strategy sequence. If you enter more than one strategy, the priority of the strategy determines which price is selected.
Examples
The following strategy sequence is entered:
1. Actual price of the previous period
2. Plan price of the previous period
3. The most current plan price
If the system finds a price for the activity type, this price is used for valuating the internal activities. If no price was calculated for the previous period, the plan price from the previous period is used to valuate the activity type.
If the system cannot find a plan price for the previous period, it looks for a future plan price, using the next price in the posting period to valuate the internal activities. For example, if plan prices have been entered for periods 2 and 3, and a plan price is calculated in period 1 for period 4, the system uses the price from period 3 in accordance with the valuation strategy Most up-to-date plan price.
Again if you have not mentioned, then system will give error that "valuation stg not found".
You can use any costing variant for actual (PPP2)and planned(PPP1) according to your requirement.. check in OPL1

GR for Purchase order and GI for prod. order simultaneously

Hi Guys,
My client current has an external system, which does both GR for puchase order and GI for Prod. order at the same time. He is now migrating into SAP and he wants the same functionality. Do you have any idea how to do this.
For eg., Pick list(CO27) will pick and issue the components to production order, if the component is in inventory. if it is not there, it will give error.
Can we add, if material is not there, it should do GR and GI. is it possible with any customer exit in CO27?
Thanks
Srini

Hi,
In KANBAN, we have the possibility to do the GR (Goods Invard) if th container is Full and GI (to the production Order) if the Container is Empty.
It's just a thaught..

Overhead Calculation for Internal Order

Hi Gurus,
I have created one internal order and made the reservations.
I have configured all Overhead Keys and Overhead Groups. I have also maintained the rates for the same.
Now while i m running the overhead calculation for internal order, I am getting below stated result:
Y141 Machine Cost 5000 INR 100 KG Rs. 555.27
Y142 Labour            60    INR 100 KG Rs. 1110.54
Y143 Utility              60    INR 100 KG Rs. 2221.08
Y144 QC/QA Exp     5000 INR 100 KG Rs.4,442.16
Now u can see that overheads are doubled evrytime. I have made the configuration perfectly. I m demn sure abt it.
But i think i m lacking somewhere because such kind of ridiculous overhead should not come.
Pls help me in this regard.
Hope to get back u frnds!!!!!!!!

Need a Badi to look the good issue status for prod order before good receipt in MIGO

Hi ,
Need a Badi to look the good issue status for compoents for prod order before good receipt in MIGO.
Example : There are 10 comps need to be issued to production order to make any assy but 6 comps were issued
and remaining 4 comps are not yet issued.,in this situation if I try to do goods receipt for prod order through MIGO.,system should populate the warning
message saying still goods issue are pending for prod order.
Please advise .
Thanks
Prasad

Hi Prasad,
Before trying with a BAdI, have you tried to control this behaviour thru the Order confirmation parameters (OPK4)?
Note that you can have a termination in case of having problems in the goods movements..
Take a look of this and the SAP help:
Termination of Confirmation if Incorrect Goods Movements
Controls if the confirmation is terminated in the event of incorrect goods
movements.
Use
This enables you to terminate the confirmation in the event of incorrect
items, for example, to prevent postprocessing records.
Dependencies
The indicator is only evaluated if either no process control key or one
process control key has been stored that enbles the goods movements to be posted
in dialog AND for which the "provide error handling for goods movements"
indicator is active. If there are incorrect goods movements, the system behaves
as follows:
A log is issued that gives information on the incorrect goods movements
If these incorrect goods movements are determined by inventory management,
then the option of correcting these errors is offered in the error handling
If the correction is not successful, the confirmation is terminated
Kind Regards,
Mariano

RE G.I Problem for prod order in MTO

Hi All,
I am having stock as sales order stock in unrestricted. when I want to issue goods for prod order in MTO through MIGO. when I am checking I am getting the error as sales order stock not available. Any solutions for this Issue.

Vachanala,
If the stock is assigned to the perticular sales order & line item, the error won't be there.
Agin check the stock in MMBE, & ensure that it is assigned to that perticular sale order number & line item.
If it's not there then do the assignment to the desired sales order with movement type 413 E in t code MB1B.
Hope this helps you.

RA/WIP/VARIANCE for Prod Order

Hi,
Could any one please tell me How to see RA/WIP/VARIANCE on a Prodction order which is in TECO?
I mean to say when RA was carried out what was the amounts , when WIP was carried out like that.
on our Production order (which is DLV and TECO) Total Target costs are Zero, and Total Actual costs are showing in full amount, why we are not seeing any Target costs?
Please explain,
Regards,
Sandhya

Hi Sandhya,
When you carried out the WIP at the period-end (KKAX), you will be able to see the WIP Value. Once you settle that Order, WIP get posted to FI.
Pls check the GL Line Items report to see the Values. You can find the GL's used for WIP in configuration of WIP.
Target costs are nothing but Standard Cost of Actual Production taken place. Pls check if there is Goods Receipt done or not against that Production Order for which you found no Target Costs.
Pls check and revert back...

Avoid variance calculation on product order

Hi experts,
i have a question. We have a material with cost estimate with quantity structure, cost estimate is release. All cost components in cost component structure are in inventory valuation. On the product order are then target costs. When material is producing, one component of BOM (cost element XXX) is not consumption on product order. When i start variance calculation, SAP calculate variance to this one component (cost element XXX) and by settlemnet of order, posting variance to FI. But this thing i don´t want. It is possible prohibit calculation of variance for this component of BOM - cost element XXX on product order? It is possible prohibit settlement this variance to FI? What i can do for it?
Thanks a lot,
Gustavo

Hi,
i must settlement product order, so i need variance calculation. So can i settlement variances to FI only for some components of BOM and one variances of one component leave on procuct order? Or can i settlement variances of one component of BOM to other cost centrum than others components (alternatively under other cost elements)? Maybe substition.... If yes, how?
Thanks a lot,
Gustavo
