WIP / Variance / Settlement Performance issue

Dear All,
While doing WIP, Variance and Settlement calculation in Collective process (KKAO, KKS1 & CO88) for all the Production Order to each end of the month, it is taking too many times to calculate. Can anybody tell me how to reduce the calculation time?
Is it any OSS note available for avoiding this kind of issue?
Regards,
Mohan.

  • Accounting entry - WIP, Variance Calculation & Settlement of Production Orders

    Hi All,
    Please explain the process of WIP calculation, variance and settlement of production orders. At each stage will there be an accounting entry generated?
    1. WIP calculation: All production orders for which the status is REL at the month end will be included in WIP calculation. How the amount of WIP is derived and what will be the accounting entry.
    2. Variance calculation: Production order needs to have the status TECHO in order to do the variance settlement. Will there be an accounting action and how the amount will be calculated?
    3. Settlement of Production Orders: Dr. WIP A/c (Balance Sheet a/c)
                                                        Cr. Volume Variance WIP a/c (P&L Account)
        Is this the correct accounting entry? If yes, please advice how the WIP a/c is showing balance on settlement of production order, how it will get nullified? If no, please advise on the correct process?
    Regards

    Dear Andy
    In product cost by order scenario the WIP or Variance calculation is dependent on order status. If the Order has a status of REL or PDLV, the system will calculate WIP and if the order status is DLV or TECO the system will calculate variance on this order. At the time of calculation of WIP or Variance no accounting entry i generated but when you settle the order at that time FI documents are passed in the books.
    Ans1-  In product cost by order WIP or variance is calculated based on the actual cost debited to the order and value of GR made to the order. System does calculation by the formula GR value-(GI value+Activity value+ Overheads)
    Ans2-  As I said at the time of calculation no FI entries are passed but at the time of settlement FI entries are generated. The method of calculation is the same as described in Ans1.
    Ans3- Entry at WIP settlement WIP (P&L) a/c Dr and WIP Offsetting(B/S a/c) Cr.
              Entry at variance settlement : Variance a/c dr/cr and COGM cr/dr.
              and if there is already a WIP posted for this order then at settlement WIP entry is reversed provided we have calculated WIP again the the month of settlement of variance
    Note for Anand: Dear Anand we need to calculate WIP again in the period when the order status  is changed to DLV or TECO otherwise system will not pass reversal entry of WIP. Kindly test it in your IDES and let me know if you find something on the contrary.

  • Performance Issues with Photoshop CS6 64-Bit

    Hello -
    Issue at hand: over the course of the last few weeks, I have noticed significant issues with performance since the last update to PS CS6 via the Adobe Application Manager, ranging from unexpected shut downs to bringing my workstation to a crawl (literally, my cursor seems to crawl across my displays). I'm curious as to if anyone else is experiencing these issues, or if there is a solution I have not yet tried. Here is a list of actions that result in these performance issues - there are likely more that I have either not experienced due to my frustration, or have not documented as occuring multiple times:
    Opening files - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
    Pasting from clipboard - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
    Saving files - takes 3-10 seconds to open the dialog, another 3-10 seconds to return to normal window (saving a compressed PNG)
    Eyedropper tool - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
    Attempting to navigate any menu - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
    Attempts I've taken to resolve this matter, which have failed:
    Uninstalled all fonts that I have added since the last update (this was a pain in the ***, thank you Windows explorer for being glitchy)
    Uninstall application and reinstall application
    Use 32-bit edition
    Changing process priority to Above Normal
    Confirm process affinity to all available CPU cores
    Change configuration of Photoshop performance options

  • WIP order Settlement

    Dear All,
      I have created a process order and the status of the order is REL. When i run the WIP KKAX, the value of WIP is calculated. While doing the settlement of the process order, the system responded that there is no accured amount, settlement is not possible. Kindly advice to go forward.
    Regards
    Vasantha

    Hi,
    It does not mean that an REL order has to post WIP during settlement. in CO03 screen, Goto - Order - Balance. In your case, the balance is zero. That is the reason why the system gave you a message "no accrued amount". Hope this helps. try to post some costs to the order and then perform WIP and settlement.
    Thanks,
    Moorthy

  • WIP Variance Calulation in SAP B1

    Hi Experts
    I need help in WIP variance calculation in SAP B1.
    How system calculate FG cost in SAP B1?
    As per my knowledge component cost is FG cost if we have not loaded any overheads.
    But we are getting WIP variance in production orders.
    Pls. help me out from this.
    Regards
    Kamlesh

    Hello Kamlesh,
    You can also refer to Note 1089549. I have copied the text here:
    "In SAP Business One, a pre-defined standard is summarised in the form of a 'Bill of Materials' (BOM). The BOM holds all the raw materials, labour, and processes required for producing the finished product. The production variance is calculated as the difference between the quantities defined in the BOM and the actual quantities issued for production. The quantity difference is multiplied by the current item
    cost to arrive at the total variance cost.
    Once completion of the final product is posted, the variance is stored in the 'Total Variance', 'Variance Per Product', and 'Variance %' fields of the Production Order -> Summary tab.
    This variance cost is posted to the corresponding 'WIP Stock Variance Account' when closing the Production Order. The 'WIP Stock Variance Account' is set up in the Item Group, Item Warehouse, or Item Level,
    whichever is applicable."
    I hope the above helps.

  • Performance issues - slowdowns...

    Hi all,
    Brand new iMac 20 inch Core 2 Duo. Working super for the first couple of days and now I notice some performance issues.
    First of all, I had some crashes with Safari today. I had installed the Flip4Mac wmv add-on a few days ago. So, I deleted the Flip4Mac WMV browser plugins as suggested in the forums here and no crashes since.
    However, Safari now takes a while to load if starting from "closed". The first few days, it opened much, much faster.
    Also now iCal is slow to load (almost freezing system with the spinning colour wheel bussing about). It eventually loads, and works as expected - but the first few days it was super fast to load up.
    Finally, I have noticed some other occasions where the system just becomes unresponsive. I still have mouse control (not a hard lock up), but I can't switch between programs or launch a new one. Waiting 10-20 seconds usually does the trick and I am again able to work as expected.
    I am new to Macs after years as a PC user. In fact, I have a new MacBook Pro coming next week as well. Needless to say, I have made the switch by jumping in! So, I am learning a whole new world here and could use some help! I sure would like to retain the amazing performance I witnessed the first few days, so any assistance is most appreciated.
    Best,
    Stu

    Allan's suggestions may be better than what I'm going to offer so I'd try them first. If gentler methods don't help, you may want to consider more drastic measures. As he pointed out, brand new hardware is not always perfect.
    If you can easily back up all the data you have, I'd consider doing that, then do an erase and install. To do this, boot your Mac, insert the system install or restore disk that came with your Mac, restart, and hold down the C key right after it chimes. When you run through the installation prompts, click the Options Tab when you see it and choose erase and install, remembering that this will wipe out data you have not backed up elsewhere. (not trying to be condescending, just covering all the bases).
    There could be some sort of small easy-to-fix issue that Allan's tips will fix. If, OTOH, there is a hardware issue, doing and erase and install will clear up that question pretty quickly. The erase and install will put you back to "factory condition" as far as software is concerned. If problems develop again in a day or two (or sooner) then you should call Apple. Just don't forget to mention you've already done an erase and install.
    good luck

  • 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...

  • Report Performance Issue - Activity

    Hi gurus,
    I'm developing an Activity report using Transactional database (Online real time object).
    the purpose of the report is to list down all contacts related activities and activities NOT related to Contact by activity owner (user id).
    In order to fullfill that requirment I've created 2 report
    1) All Activities related to Contact -- Report A
    pull in Acitivity ID , Activity Type, Status, Contact ID
    2) All Activities not related to Contact UNION All Activities related to Contact (Base report) -- Report B
    to get the list of activities not related to contact i'm using Advanced filter based on result of another request which is I think is the part that slow down the query.
    <Activity ID not equal to any Activity ID in Report B>
    Anyone encountered performance issue due to the advanced filter in analytic before?
    any input is really appriciated
    Thanks in advanced,
    Fina

    Fina,
    Union is always the last option. If you can get all record in one report, do not use union.
    since all records, which you are targeting, are in the activity subject area, it is not nessecery to combine reports. add a column with the following logic
    if contact id is null (or = 'Unspecified') then owner name else contact name
    Hopefully, this is helping.

  • Report performance Issue in BI Answers

    Hi All,
    We have a performance issues with reports. Report is running more than 10 mins. we took query from the session log and ran it in database, at that time it took not more than 2 mins. We have verified proper indexes on the where clause columns.
    Could any once suggest to improve the performance in BI answers?
    Thanks in advance,

    I hope you dont have many case statements and complex calculations that you do in the Answers.
    Next thing you need to monitor is how many rows of data that you are trying to retrieve from the query. If the volume is huge then it takes time to do the formatting on the Answers as you are going to dump huge volumes of data. Database(like teradata) returns initially like 1-2000 records if you hit show all records then even db is gonna fair amount of time if you are dumping many records
    hope it helps
    thanks

    I have other RAID installed, but not relevant for the present post...
    PSU
    Cosair 1000 Watts
    After many days of tests, I wanna share my results with community and comment them.
    CPU Introduction
    I tested my cpu and pushed it at maximum speed to understand where is the limit, can I reach this limit and I've logged precisely all result in graph (See pictures 1).
    Intro : I tested my E5-XEON 2687W (8 Cores Hyperthread - 16 threads) to know if programs can use the maximum of it.  I used Prime 95 to get the result.  // I know this seem to be ordinary, but you will understand soon...
    The result : Yes, I can get 100% of my CPU with 1 program using 20 threads in parallel.  The CPU gives everything it can !
    Comment : I put 3 IO (cpu, disk, ram) on the graph of my computer during the test...
    (picture 1)
    Disk Introduction
    I tested my disk and pushed it at maximum speed to understand where is the limit and I've logged precisely all result in graph (See pictures 2).
    Intro : I tested my RAID 0 556GB (LSI MegaRAID 9260-8i SATA3 6GB/s 5 disks with Fastpath Chip Installed) to know if I can reach the maximum % disk usage (0% idle Time)
    The result : As you can see in picture 2, yes, I can get the max of my drive at ~ 1.2 Gb/sec read/write steady !
    Comment : I put 3 IO (cpu, disk, ram) on the graph of my computer during the test to see the impact of transfering many Go of data during ~10 sec...
    (picture 2)
    Now, I know my limits !  It's time to enter deeper in the subject !
    PPBM5 (H.264) Result
    I rendered the sequence (H.264) using Adobe Media Encoder.
    The result :
    My CPU is not used at 100%, the turn around 50%
    My Disk is totally idle !
    All the process usage are idle except process of (Adobe Media Encoder)
    The transfert rate seem to be a wave (up and down).  Probably caused by (Encrypt time....  write.... Encrypt time.... write...)  // It's ok, ~5Mb/sec during transfert rate !
    CPU Power management give 100% of clock to CPU during the encoding process (it's ok, the clock is stable during process).
    RAM, more than enough !  39 Go RAM free after the test !  // Excellent
    ~65 thread opened by Adobe Media Encoder (Good, thread is the sign that program try to using many cores !)
    GPU Load on card seem to be a wave also ! (up and down)  ~40% usage of GPU during the process of encoding.
    GPU Ram get 1.2Go of RAM (But with GTX 680, no problem and Quadro 6000 with 6 GB RAM, no problem !)
    Comment/Question : CPU is free (50%), disks are free (99%), GPU is free (60%), RAM is free (62%), my computer is not pushed at limit during the encoding process.  Why ????  Is there some time delay in the encoding process ?
    Other : Quadro 6000 & GTX 680 gives the same result !
    (picture 3)
    PPBM5 (Disk Test) Result (RAID LSI)
    I rendered the sequence (Disk Test) using Adobe Media Encoder on my RAID 0 LSI disk.
    The result :
    My CPU is not used at 100%
    My Disk wave and wave again, but far far from the limit !
    All the process usage are idle except process of (Adobe Media Encoder)
    The transfert rate wave and wave again (up and down).  Probably caused by (Buffering time....  write.... Buffering time.... write...)  // It's ok, ~375Mb/sec peak during transfert rate !  Easy !
    CPU Power management give 100% of clock to CPU during the encoding process (it's ok, the clock is stable during process).
    RAM, more than enough !  40.5 Go RAM free after the test !  // Excellent
    ~48 thread opened by Adobe Media Encoder (Good, thread is the sign that program try to using many cores !)
    GPU Load on card = 0 (This kind of encoding is GPU irrelevant)
    GPU Ram get 400Mb of RAM (No usage for encoding)
    Comment/Question : CPU is free (65%), disks are free (60%), GPU is free (100%), RAM is free (63%), my computer is not pushed at limit during the encoding process.  Why ????  Is there some time delay in the encoding process ?
    (picture 4)
    PPBM5 (Disk Test) Result (Direct in RAMDrive)
    I rendered the same sequence (Disk Test) using Adobe Media Encoder directly in my RamDrive
    Comment/Question : Look at the transfert rate under (picture 5).  It's exactly the same speed than with my RAID 0 LSI controller.  Impossible !  Look in the same picture the transfert rate I can reach with the ramdrive (> 3.0 Gb/sec steady) and I don't go under 30% of disk usage.  CPU is idle (70%), Disk is idle (100%), GPU is idle (100%) and RAM is free (63%).  // This kind of results let me REALLY confused.  It's smell bug and big problem with hardware and IO usage in CS6 !
    (picture 5)
    PPBM5 (MPEG-DVD) Result
    I rendered the sequence (MPEG-DVD) using Adobe Media Encoder.
    The result :
    My CPU is not used at 100%
    My Disk is totally idle !
    All the process usage are idle except process of (Adobe Media Encoder)
    The transfert rate wave and wave again (up and down).  Probably caused by (Encoding time....  write.... Encoding time.... write...)  // It's ok, ~2Mb/sec during transfert rate !  Real Joke !
    CPU Power management give 100% of clock to CPU during the encoding process (it's ok, the clock is stable during process).
    RAM, more than enough !  40 Go RAM free after the test !  // Excellent
    ~80 thread opened by Adobe Media Encoder (Lot of thread, but it's ok in multi-thread apps!)
    GPU Load on card = 100 (This use the maximum of my GPU)
    GPU Ram get 1Gb of RAM
    Comment/Question : CPU is free (70%), disks are free (98%), GPU is loaded (MAX), RAM is free (63%), my computer is pushed at limit during the encoding process for GPU only.  Now, for this kind of encoding, the speed limit is affected by the slower IO (Video Card GPU)
    Other : Quadro 6000 is slower than GTX 680 for this kind of encoding (~20 s slower than GTX).
    (picture 6)
    Encoding single clip FULL HD AVCHD to H.264 Result (Premiere Pro CS6)
    You can look the result in the picture.
    Comment/Question : CPU is free (55%), disks are free (99%), GPU is free (90%), RAM is free (65%), my computer is not pushed at limit during the encoding process.  Why ????   Adobe Premiere seem to have some bug with thread management.  My hardware is idle !  I understand AVCHD can be very difficult to decode, but where is the waste ?  My computer want, but the software not !
    (picture 7)
    Render composition using 3D Raytracer in After Effects CS6
    You can look the result in the picture.
    Comment : GPU seems to be the bottle neck when using After Effects.  CPU is free (99%), Disks are free (98%), Memory is free (60%) and it depend of the setting and type of project.
    Other : Quadro 6000 & GTX 680 gives the same result in time for rendering the composition.
    (picture 8)
    Conclusion
    There is nothing you can do (I thing) with CS6 to get better performance actually.  GTX 680 is the best (Consumer grade card) and the Quadro 6000 is the best (Profressional card).  Both of card give really similar result (I will probably return my GTX 680 since I not really get any better performance).  I not used Tesla card with my Quadro, but actually, both, Premiere Pro & After Effects doesn't use multi GPU.  I tried to used both card together (GTX & Quadro), but After Effects gives priority to the slower card (In this case, the GTX 680)
    Premiere Pro, I'm speechless !  Premiere Pro is not able to get max performance of my computer.  Not just 10% or 20%, but average 60%.  I'm a programmor, multi-threadling apps are difficult to manage and I can understand Adobe's programmor.  But actually, if anybody have comment about this post, tricks or any kind of solution, you can comment this post.  It's seem to be a bug...
    Thank you.

    Patrick,
    I can't explain everything, but let me give you some background as I understand it.
    The first issue is that CS6 has a far less efficient internal buffering or caching system than CS5/5.5. That is why the MPEG encoding in CS6 is roughly 2-3 times slower than the same test with CS5. There is some 'under-the-hood' processing going on that causes this significant performance loss.
    The second issue is that AME does not handle regular memory and inter-process memory very well. I have described this here: Latest News
    As to your test results, there are some other noteworthy things to mention. 3D Ray tracing in AE is not very good in using all CUDA cores. In fact it is lousy, it only uses very few cores and the threading is pretty bad and does not use the video card's capabilities effectively. Whether that is a driver issue with nVidia or an Adobe issue, I don't know, but whichever way you turn it, the end result is disappointing.
    The overhead AME carries in our tests is something we are looking into and the next test will only use direct export and no longer the AME queue, to avoid some of the problems you saw. That entails other problems for us, since we lose the capability to check encoding logs, but a solution is in the works.
    You see very low GPU usage during the H.264 test, since there are only very few accelerated parts in the timeline, in contrast to the MPEG2-DVD test, where there is rescaling going on and that is CUDA accelerated. The disk I/O test suffers from the problems mentioned above and is the reason that my own Disk I/O results are only 33 seconds with the current test, but when I extend the duration of that timeline to 3 hours, the direct export method gives me 22 seconds, although the amount of data to be written, 37,092 MB has increased threefold. An effective write speed of 1,686 MB/s.
    There are a number of performance issues with CS6 that Adobe is aware of, but whether they can be solved and in what time, I haven't the faintest idea.

  • Performance Issue for BI system

    Hello,
    We are facing performance issues for BI System. Its a preproductive system and its performance is degrading badly everyday. I was checking system came to know program buffer hit ratio is increaasing everyday due to high Swaps. So asked to change the parameter abap/buffersize which was 300Mb to 500Mb. But still no major improvement is found in the system.
    There is 16GB Ram available and Server is HP-UX and with Netweaver2004s with Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 installed in it.
    The Main problem is while running a report or creating a query is taking way too long time.
    Kindly help me.

    Thanks for your reply but i have checked ST02 and ST03 and also SM50 and its normal
    we are having 9 dialog processes, 3 Background , 2 Update and 1 spool.
    No one is using the system currently but in ST02 i can see the swaps are in red.

  • RE: Case 59063: performance issues w/ C TLIB and Forte3M

    Hi James,
    Could you give me a call, I am at my desk.
    I had meetings all day and couldn't respond to your calls earlier.

    Hello,
    I just want to reiterate that we are very committed to working on
    this issue, and that our goal is to find out the root of the problem. But
    first I'd like to narrow down the avenues by process of elimination.
    Open Cursor is something that is commonly used in today's RDBMS. I
    know that you must test your query in ISQL using some kind of execute
    immediate, but Sybase should be able to handle an open cursor. I was
    wondering if your Sybase expert commented on the fact that the server is
    not responding to commonly used command like 'open cursor'. According to
    our developer, we are merely following the API from Sybase, and open cursor
    is not something that particularly slows down a query for several minutes
    (except maybe the very first time). The logs show that Forte is waiting for
    a status from the DB server. Actually, using prepared statements and open
    cursor ends up being more efficient in the long run.
    Some questions:
    1) Have you tried to do a prepared statement with open cursor in your ISQL
    session? If so, did it have the same slowness?
    2) How big is the table you are querying? How many rows are there? How many
    are returned?
    3) When there is a hang in Forte, is there disk-spinning or CPU usage in
    the database server side? On the Forte side? Absolutely no activity at all?
    We actually have a Sybase set-up here, and if you wish, we could test out
    your database and Forte PEX here. Since your queries seems to be running
    off of only one table, this might be the best option, as we could look at
    everything here, in house. To do this:
    a) BCP out the data into a flat file. (character format to make it portable)
    b) we need a script to create the table and indexes.
    c) the Forte PEX file of the app to test this out.
    d) the SQL staement that you issue in ISQL for comparison.
    If the situation warrants, we can give a concrete example of
    possible errors/bugs to a developer. Dial-in is still an option, but to be
    able to look at the TOOL code, database setup, etc. without the limitations
    of dial-up may be faster and more efficient. Please let me know if you can
    provide this, as well as the answers to the above questions, or if you have
    any questions.
    Regards,

    We did that trick already.
    When it is hanging, I can see what is doing.
    It is doing OPEN CURSOR. But not clear the exact statement of the cursor
    it is trying to open.
    When we run the query directly to Sybase, not using Forte, it is clearly
    not opening any cursor.
    And running it directly to Sybase many times, the response is always
    consistently fast.
    It is just when the query runs from Forte to Sybase, it opens a cursor.
    But again, in the Forte code, Alex is not using any cursor.
    In trying to capture the query,we even tried to audit any statementcoming
    to Sybase. Same thing, just open cursor. No cursor declaration anywhere.==============================================

    Like:
    - a database version
    - how did you test
    - what data do you have, how is it distributed, indexed
    and so on.
    If you want to find out what's going on then use a TRACE with wait events.

  • Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

    Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

    Thanks Kelly,
    The answers would be the following:
    1200 cells per custom section (NEW COUNT), and up to 30 custom sections per spec.
    Assuming all will be populated, and this would apply to all final material specs in the system which could be ~25% of all material specs.
    The cells will be numeric, free text, drop downs, and some calculated numeric.
    Are we reaching the limits for UI performance?
    Thanks
