Hi,
Formula key is used for calculating the execution time of an activity or for calculating capacity requirements or for calculating costs of a work center's activity type. It can be configured in transaction code OP54.
What is the activity type description you are using?
Thanks

What are the control functions of Suitability and setup type key in work center?

Hi all,
Can any1 plz tell me what is suitability and setup type key in workcenter default values tab?
what are the functions controlled by these keys?

Hello,
Control Key in Defaut value keys screen is mainly for defining how the work center will be used in routings.
Almost in all the PP we define same Control key to the work center as well in the routing.
For example in work center control Key PP01 is used to define Routings/Internal proc. activities. When we go to the routing screen even if we do not see our components, work centers or control key we have to manually enter these details ans here control Key will remain the same as it was in Work center.
No. of individual capacity defines how many machines are there of the same type in the work center. E.g if I have 5 CNC machines then I will make One work center and in capacity screen I will put 5 as No. of individual Capacity.

Formula parameter in Work Center for 'Costing' tab

Hi all
In the 'costing' tab of the Work center I am using a formula which uses the operation quantity ' which has field name 'MGVRG'. Is there a way I can use an alternate unit of measure as an operation quanity in the formula? Let us say my Routing is defined in Cases and my operation qty is is in cases but I want to pass on the alternate unit of measure LB which is defined in the Material Master. Is there a way I can do it.
thanks a lot

Hi John,
Not sure if i have understood your query correctly, but when you click on test forumla in the work center it does not display the UoM, so here you can pass the UoM as per your need. In OP52, for SAP_09 you can verify the same.
If my understanding is not correct, please let me know.

PAVILION P6-2002es F11 KEY NOT WORKING. HOW I CAN GET IT working AGAIN

Hi all. My pc isn`t working the f11 recovery key. The partition is right but I can`t restore de system because the f11 key do not work. The system don`t start. How I get use de recovery partition?

I see no mention of trying the Recovery disk set, so I assume those were not made. First thing would be to try to enter the BIOS to see what information is still available. If the PC can do that there might be a possible solution. Report back with results.

I can't type in my passcode on the keypad and can only touch random keys that work. How can I fix this?

I try to type in my passcode on my iPad 2 and will, at times, randomly put in letters I did NOT choose. And when I try to backspace, it acts up and disables.

If you are able to unlock the iPad by entering the passocde, try quitting all apps in the recents tray for starters.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Try resetting the iPad as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Cost element & work center

Dear All,
What is meant by cost element.any link between cost element and work center.how to configure this.Kindly give the steps to follow.
Regards,
Devi

Hi Devi,
Cost element is Classification of the organization's valuated consumption of production factors within a controlling area.
Each cost element corresponds to a cost-relevant item in the chart of accounts.
Primary Cost element & Secondary Cost element.
Primary cost elements are like materail costs, personnel costs, energy costs... where a corresponding GL account exists in FI..to allow costs to flow...
Secondary cost elements are like production costs, material overheads, production overheads, they can be created and administered in only CO. These are used in internal cost allocation, overhead calculation, settlement transactions., it does not flow to FI...
I don't think there is any link between Cost element and Work Center.
If useful reward.

Could not found any usage key in the work center WC001(Use T-CODE CR02)?

my question:
(1) I have created one Work Center WC001 and one Plant HJW1.
(2) I have created one Routing with T-CODE CA01.
(3) Then I use T-CODE CA02 to change this Routing.
(4) When I enter the Head details screen,I click the Operations button to enter the Operations Overview screen.
(5) In the Operations Overview screen list,I input the Work Center WC001 and the Plant HJW1 at the first line and press enter.Then the sap raise error message like below.
(6) The question was: I could not found any usage key in the work center WC001(Use T-CODE CR02)! Could any one tell me the answer or give me some advice to resolve the problem?Thank you so much.
error message:
Work center WC001 plant HJW1 does not exist for task list type N
Message no. CR084
Diagnosis
You want to allocate the work center WC001 to a task list of the type N . However this work center is not intended to be used in a task list of the type N.
Procedure
The usage of a work center in task lists is restricted via the usage key. You define this key in work center customizing and allocate to it those task list types in which a work center with this usage key can be used.
Proceed as follows:
Check the usage key for the work center WC001 in work center maintenance.
If necessary change the usage key in the work center or change the allocation of task list types to the usage key in customizing or
allocate to the task list a work center which is valid for use in a task list of the type N.

Hi
1) Check what task list usage key you entered for the work center in the basic data . If it is 009 then the work center can be used in all task list type.
2) If you have defined and used any other usage key , ensure that for this key , the routing type N is allowed in OP45.

Ramasamy

Work center formula - rounding to zero?

Hi
I have set up a new formula for a work center, using a new parameter Z_BKP5 (Parameter1.jpg). It should be fixed to 2000.
My formula is: Operation qty/Z_BKP5* Variable machine time.
However, if my operation qty is bigger than Z_BKP5 (2000), then I get the result (Test1.jpg), for example 2000/2000*180 MIN => result is 180 MIN
If my operation quantity is smaller, I don't get anything calculated (Test2.jpg). The same happens on Test formula screens as well on planned orders.
Example 1900/2000*180 MIN
Is it some rounding issue? I have tried finding a parameter in customizing for this, but I cannot find anything related. Can this be solved somehow, or is this standard behaviour?
Thank you

Just for future help, I'd expect that means your data container is integer. In that case, it's important to do your multiplications first and your divisions last.
An alternate problem that you can also run into is that you can exceed the max size of the container and get an overflow. Then you need to look at the expected size of the max and min values of each variable and try to work them in alternately so as neither to go below 1 nor above max value.

Activity cost at work center

Dear Exports,
I have a requirement in my project
1. In a work center we have 3 activities. 1. Labour time
                                                                   2. Machine Time
                                                                    3. No. Kgs treated.
I am able to give labour & Machine reates by giving price at kp26. and number of minitus in routing.
But my client wants machine hour rate : no. labours worked X Time worked X rate per hour .
i.e he wanted to give time in labour time activity and no of employees worked in machine time the formula must claculate
Labour time X Machine time(No of Workers worked) X KP26 Price(Per Labour hour).
Can Any body help me please...
Rao

Check if there is an existing WC formula that you can use or create your own formula for the work center.
My challenge (at a different business, so I don't have the exact work in front of me, but I have notes) was Crew size x Machine Hours x Activity rate.
In the routing Operation Details is a section General Data.
There is a field: Number of Employees, field name ANZMA, That is where we populated Crew size
Use an existing formula if possible
Which formula do I use??
    Work Center Basic Data (CR02) determine standard value key
    Go to "Define Standard Value Key" in IMG (OP19); select std value key and click detail button
     Note the Parameter used                                        IMG path: Production>Basic Data>WorkCenter>General Data>Standard Value >Define Standard Value Key
    Go to "Define formulas for work centers" in IMG (OP54); select formula that uses the field parameters required          IMG path: Production>Basic Data>WorkCenter>Capacity Planning>Work Center Formulas>
                     Define formulas for work centers
Not there? Create the formula
     In English - what do you want to calculate?
     Find parameters for the fields in the calculation
     Write formula (op54) Copy from existing formula if possible - spaces in the equation are necessary
                         OP17 is where to create new Parameters.
This is all configuration - with some high leve security (in our system). Configur and TEST CAREFULLY

Re: Work center in plant

A work centre is a place where an activity takes place.
The usage of work centre shall depend upon your work place, i.e. factory, shop etc.
Usage of work centre is for scheduling, utilization, efficiency calculation etc..
work center is created in CR01...
But before starting the creation, the following are to be in the system, so that you can get a better result.
Defien work center category using OP40.
Define the person responsible in config or shoose the standard one if no specific person is not required.
Task lists to be defined using OP45.

In Basic data enter Work Cenetr Category, Person Responsible, Location, And usage of machine are to eb defined.
We can define standard vaue priority here. If we mention as should be enters, then that will be a compulsory field. .
In Default values as per requirement we can put values.
In capacities Processing fromual to be defined. Inside the subtab, we can give details of shift working, break times, capacity utilisation, factory calendar and all.
In scheduling the Process Formula to be given.
In costing field, we have to give the validity period of Machine, Cost center to which this machine attached, also teh relevant actvity types.
