WIP Calculation in SAP

Hello All,
When we are Calculating WIP in SAP i found two things
it is taking all the materail cost from the order for which the raw material has been issued but the stock from the orders were not delivered. I think that is correct since the Stock is still lying in the shop floor and SAP is calculating the WIP from that stock.
But i have a problem in Understanding that WIP calculated for a Specifical Month is not getting reversed on the first day of the next month, but it is getting reversed on the settlement of the Order after complete delivery only.
For Example:
One Production Order ZYX is Created In March 20th for getting the output Material 123
for that we issued raw material A, B,C with total value of 200 EUR on 31st of may we calculated the WIP and it showed the value of 200 EUR in WIP but on 1st of April it is not getting reversed.
next month i.e. April we issued raw material to Order say D,E,F with Total Value of 800 EUR this time WIP is calculated on 30th April for 800 EUR and showing in the GL without any reversal in May 1st.
On 15th of may the Production Order ZYX Had the GR of Material 123 and now at the settlement of Order on the 31st May it is showing the settlement Entry and the addition entry of WIP Reversal for 1000 EUR.
Now i want to know why is SAP not Reversing the entry for every month and why is it getting reversed at the Order Closing Time.
Is it the SAP Standard Process or Is it some thing that can be changed by Customization.
Best Regards.

Hi Christian,
In that case what happens if there is a partial GR for the order for EUR300 on 5th Of May, now the FG stock accounts will get an update of EUR300 and the final standing of the balance sheet on 5th of May will be as follows :-
Balance sheet
FG stock accounts : EUR300
WIP Total : EUR1000
Total BS stock value = EUR1300
This is actually wrong because the total stock cannot be EUR1300 where EUR300 more than total WIP of EUR1000
The right way is when a GR of 300 is happening the system should reverse a WIP value of 300 from the WIP total instead of waiting till the order changes status to DLV or TECO. Only then the BS stock total can be correct as follows :-
Balance sheet
FG stock accounts : EUR300
WIP Total : EUR700
So my question is why SAP is not reversing the value of the GR from the WIP total computed earlier?

Error in wip calculation

Dear gurus,
While diong wip calculation system is giving error
+There are values for cost element 50000000 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.+
What does it mean and what should I do to solve this error
Thanks
Sanket

Hi,
You can find oss notes in the link
https://websmp210.sap-ag.de/
Given below is suggested by oss
Summary
Symptom
When you execute the results analysis or WIP calculation, the system displays the message KJ161 ("There are values for cost element & that are not assigned to any line ID"). In earlier releases, there was only a general information message in this case.
Other terms
KKA1, KKA2, KKA3, KKAI, KKAJ, KKAK, KKAS, KKAV, KKAX, KKAO, work in process.
Reason and Prerequisites
Due to popular customer demand, this general information message was changed into an error message, even if a missing cost element assignment has no effect in some cases.
The cost element specified in the message is intentionally not assigned to any line item ID because the cost element is not to be taken into account.
Solution
For example, you have the following options to eliminate the problem in WIP calculation and results analysis and have the system ignore a cost element:
1. Option
Adjust results analysis Customizing so that the system no longer displays the error message for the cost elements affected.
Create a new line ID.
Assign the cost elements specified in message KJ161 and which you do not want to take into account to this line ID. Consider that the assignment does not depend on the cost element alone.
Add this line ID to the update and assign category 'N'. The system will not take into account the values from line IDs with category 'N' during the results analysis. On the individual processing log, the system displays these values under N(i) and N(p).
2. Option
Adjust the results analysis Customizing so that the system cannot display the error message anymore.
Create a new line ID. It is to function as a remaining collector.
Select category 'N' in Customizing of the assignment if the respective values are to be ignored.
Select category 'D' if the respective values are not to be lost. Then you have the option later, for example, to assign a cost element missing up to now explicitly to another line ID. Then results analysis reposts the affected values in the next run of the remaining collector line ID to the correct line ID.
Assign all remaining cost elements to this line ID. You can do this by adding a wildcard entry in Customizing of the assignment and assign it to the new line ID.
3. Option
Adjust the results analysis Customizing so that the system displays the error message only if there are values not equal to zero.
Create a new line ID. It is to function as a remaining collector.
In the assignment Customizing, select the category 'N'.
Assign all remaining cost elements to this line ID. You can do this by adding a wildcard entry in Customizing of the assignment and assign it to the new line ID.
Use customer enhancement 1 of the results analysis to check whether or not there is a balance for the remaining collector line ID. Customer enhancement 1 is described in SAP note 26002.
Insert the source code from correction instructions number 257651 of this SAP note (302823) into customer Include ZXKAGU01 of customer enhancement 1. The source code uses a line ID - called 'RES' - as the remaining collector line ID in this case; the source code uses a line ID here named 'RES'; it may also have a different name.
The system now only displays message KJ161 if the cumulative balance of the remaining collector line ID is not equal to zero.
4. Option
Using customer enhancement 7, you can influence the message type of message KJ161.
In this case, refer to notes 198983, 455735, and 495279, which describe the customer enhancement and contain the program corrections required for the function outlined here.
Insert the source code from correction instructions number 257470 of this note (302823) into customer Include ZXKAGU07 of customer enhancement 7.
This causes the system to output an information message instead of an error message. If you select the message type J instead of I for the transfer to the user exits, the system suppresses the message completely.
Additional information
Unlike during the individual processing, message KJ161 does not necessarily have to occur during the collective processing of the results analysis because presummarized data may occur during the collective processing under certain conditions. This situation may result in the system already excluding records with the affected cost elements in advance, for example, when there are several records for the same cost element that balance to zero in every period.
If the object to be accrued by mistake was posted to with a cost element which is not assigned to the results analysis in the Customizing, and if this posting was reversed, in spite of the posting reversal the system can generate message KJ161 can be displayed for this cost element during the execution of the results analysis. The reason for this is that the first posting for example, is a debit posting and the reversing posting is a credit posting. This is managed in two table entries in the CO: one entry for the debit posting and another entry for the credit posting. There are results analysis methods which process these entries separately and which do not summarize these entries. For this reason, it is not possible to group these entries before the assignment to a line Id. A case by case summary would require a runtime-intensive analysis for each imported data record which would impair the performance too much. Therefore, also use one of the four options listed above for this purpose.

Using a different Plan Version in WIP calculation

Hi experts.
I am using version 97 as plan in a wip calculation. The problem is that to recognize plan incomings my system uses version 0 and in the result analysis they always appear as 0 because the version the system is taking to recover the planned incomings is 97 and it is empty.
Is there any standard way to make it take version 97 only for costs?.
Thanks.
Alex

yes. this is true, the predicates are not preserved, I found that out after posting. ok, Im really thinking bug here, I'll explain further.
Im outside of prod time so can run the mview. the plan is pretty big so not going to post just yet, its just behavioural at this stage.
explain for QUERY, = plan good.
create table t1 as QUERY = plan good.
insert to table as QUERY = plan good
create mview as QUERY = plan bad. Not just timings are bad, the plan has completely changed. I stop the mview creation at this stage. good old ctrl+c.
the only thing thats different is Im running MVIEW create. So I hit my ADDM again, can see the bad plan and bad timings. So I get the SQL_ID from the ADDM for the bad plan and run a 10053 on it using the 11.2 sqldiag dump. Im hoping to see why its choosing the bad path
execute DBMS_SQLDIAG.DUMP_TRACE(p_sql_id=>'576wpd5g73q9c', p_child_number=>0, p_component=>'Compiler', p_file_id=>'BAD1');
edit my BAD1 10053 trace file and I see...the plan is GOOD. Its estimated 2 seconds to run for the SQL_ID thats actually bad when running.
This is why Im thinking bug.

Tax Calculation in SAP Purchase Order

Hi Experts,
My Requirment is so get the US and Canadian tax automatically from external tax system ( other than Vertax Sabrix and taxware) while creating Purchase Order. We are using SAP XI to get the TAX AMOUNT from external system.
The probelm is , the external system provides me directly tax amount rather than tax code. As per my knowledge , the tax calculation in Sap is done through tax code only.
Please help me on this. Do I need to do something like , create a new condition type and put the tax amount there ?

Check Financial A/C Global Settings>Tax on sale and purchase>Basic Settings>Check calculation Procedure>define procedure
Which are the Tax conditions available ,In next step check assignment of country to tax procedure check for US TAXUSX is assigned
Create TAX CODE in FTXP , now for the tax code maintain the condition value( you can use standard conditions based on your tax
type or create Z Condition type) in FV11 with tax code amount and validity
Now when yoo use this tax code your condition value will be defaulted , probabaly you need to create program to use FV11 and update
New condition value fetched by external system to update the tax code and amount everytime or create Z table to store and update
condition values fetched by external system ..please explore further
Thanks

Project commintment as real in WIP calculation

Hi.
In our company we want to consider the commitment as real in WIP calculation, the problem is that i have customized it in OKG3, by puting field Commitments equa to A, because I want to consider purchase requisitions, and purchase orders commitment.
The problem is that it is not working. Does anyone know if is there something else that i have to do.
Of course if it is impossible to be done in a standard way, i can use and exit, but would like not to.
Thanks.
Alex

Hi Alex,
You can try the Results Analysis type 'F-WIP calculation on the basis of Actual costs' in the expert mode and use enhancement in the valuation basis.
Hope this may solve your issue. There is no standard configuration for including commitments in the WIP calculation.
Thanks

KKAX WIP Calculation issue

Hello All Experts,
I am facing an issue while performing KKAX WIP Calculation. The error is quite simple that "Cost Element does not exist in controlling area XXXX on date XX.XX.XXXX.
Where I can see all the "Activity Types" which are used in Operation and Work Centres are DON'T have this cost element in master data. So from where this cost element is getting picked up ? I checked in KA03 this cost element is not even created so no question arises of using in costing anywhere I guess.
Experts guidance will be helpful on this !
Thank you.
Regards,
Sharu....

Self solved.
This cost element is maintained in "OKGA Update of WIP Calculation" and the same is not created in system.
Thanks all.

Sharu.

WIP quantites in SAP

Hello friends
I have a question regarding WIP quantities in SAP, is it possible through some development or BADI to get WIP quanties for make-to-order or make-to-stock environment (manufacturing through production orders).
As far as i know SAP associates WIP to dollar amount and not to quantities.And just wondering why they didnt provide the option for WIP quantities. Any way they are calcuating the actual labor confirmed,actual goods issued to cost object, why no report which display these WIP quantities?
Is it possible through implementation of Material ledger, i checked some OSS notes and i got infrmation about WIP revaluation through ML
Any one worked on project related to WIP quantities? Points will be assignend
regards
sap-admirer

Hi,
Let me try to understand your requirement better. As you are aware that WIP is not being quantified anywhere in the system. The products are in various stages of completion. Some are 50% complete and some are 90 % complete and so on. Even if it is quanitified, we need to the weightage of completion. If that is the case, without any input in to the system how, the system shall be able to quantify. I do not think that any BADI or by implementing ML, this requirement can be fulfilled. Let us know what business demands in this case.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

WIP calculation for Sales Order no FI document

Hi,
We are using the MTO scenario with valuated salaes order stock and it wll carry revenue and costs wherein we configured the RA key correctly with valuation method as 01 and we defined all configuration correctlly line ID,s and assignment and posting rules etc,. We have incurred the cost on Prodction order assgined to Sales Order and to calculate the WIP We have done the KKA3 and we run the VA88 it is not psoting any accounting document and it is settling the costs and COPA document is generatig.

Hi,
You might have to check your scenario.
Normally when there is a CO-PA document generated, there is no WIP calculation happening.
The COS/Revenue is being transferred to CO-PA.

Wip calculation in production Order

Hai friends
Can any one tell this 2 tcodes in Co . tell me these two codes KKAX,
KKAO why we use and how to calculate tell me clearly WIP functonality.

Hi,
WIP :
The WIP calculation process valuates the unfinished products (work in process).
In the Product Cost by Order component, the work in process is valuated at actual costs. Work in process is the difference between the debit and credit of an order that has not been completely delivered. This method determines the work in process for each production order by calculating the difference between the actual costs incurred and the actual costs settled (that is, the difference between the debits for goods issues, internal activity allocations, external activities, and overhead on the one hand, and the credits for goods receipts on the other). Once the last part of the order lot has been delivered to stock, any remaining work in process must be canceled so that the order costs can properly be settled to stock.
The status of the order determines whether WIP calculation creates or cancels the work in process.
u2022 If the order has the status REL (released), the system can calculate work in process.
u2022 Once the order receives the status DLV (Delivered) or TECO (Technically completed), the work in process calculated in a previous period is canceled.
for this you have calculate WIP for every order.
KKAX- this T.code is used for single order process.
KKAO-this T.code is used for collective process,here you process by plant.
Hope this is helps you.
Thanks,
Rau

Make to order WIP calculation with minus WIP

Dear Grus!
I'm in the make to order senario ,and using actual cost in WIP calculation.
finished goods using standard cost valuation.
Input 1000, output ( 100 USD *15EA), wip qty is 5EA.
now WIP become minus, so system generates error message.
How I should configure in a correct way?
Thank you ~
Lynn

Thanks for your answers,
The message number is
Plan cost <= actual cost. Cannot use method of apportionment (K,R)
Message no. KJ228
Sum across all apportionment numbers = 0. Cannot use MOA (K,R)
Message no. KJ233
MOA for reserves for unrealized costs in period 005 2009 was changed
Message no. KJ221
Negative wip indicatest that 1) you are not finished with the order and 2) at the WIP point in time, more value has been credited to the order that was issued to the order.
This could be due to failed goods movements or incomplete confirmations, out of date cost estimates, etc.
and standard cost is a little bit high, so the WIP balance is minus.

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.
Kind Regards

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.

WIP Calculation Error - KKAX

Dear All,
When I run the KKAX (WIP Calculation),I got the foloowing error message:
There are values for cost element S43100 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.
I have done all the settings and checked throughly,but still Iam getting the above said error message.
Can anybody help me on this ?
Regards
Su

Hi,
1. Go to OKGB...
2. Decide which Line ID your cost ele S43100 belongs to... For eg: assume it shud belong to Line ID COP
3. Copy the existing Line of COP and change the field "Masked Cost Ele" from existing value to S43100
4. Transport this change across to all systems and then execute KKAX

WIP CALCULATION ON PRODUCTION ORDERS

Hi,
I have a problem for some production orders:
WHEN PERFORMING THE WIP CALCULATION (maybe with transaction code KKAO) ON SOME PRODUCTION ORDERS WE ARE GETTING THE FOLLOWING ERROR MESSAGE:
KJ161 "There are values for cost element xxxxxx that are not assigned to any line ID"
Is there anyone that can help us to understand this error message and to solve this problem?
Futher informations:
Considering the report "Orders: Actual/Plan/Variance" (transaction code S_ALR_87012993) I have noticed that this production orders have fot that particular cost element of the error message a negative actual value. This was generated by 1 document for each production order that I can see in transaction code MB23. In this document there is a movement type 531 (Receipt of by-product into unrestricted-use stock).
This document was made by transaction code COGI.
Is it this document that has created the problem for THE WIP CALCULATION?
How can we try to resolve it?
Thank you for all your help.
A.S.

Hi,
Please check the required settings in OKBG. Whether all required cost elements have been defined here?
Hope it will help you to get the clues
