Work Order Costs

Hi Experts!!
We need a report on the work order costs, however, we have some non-valuated materials in the components list. We are trying to pull the costs of the non-valuated materials from the Purchase Info Records and show that costs as part of the Warehouse Issues Actual cost. I thought this would be a custom report - Please let me know if any standard report is available or any way of tweaking the standard report.
Also I am able to see the Actual/Planned costs of the order on iw33 costs tab. I am trying to find out if there is any standard FM that i could use to get the work order costs. Also is there any infosets that i could use to pull the data for the jobs costs in my custom report.
Regards,
Yuvi.

Hi,
Have a look at transaction IW3M(Goods movement for order),It might be easier to modify this to pick up the Last PO price (Or Info rec price) for the non valuated materials.
Have a look at FM PM_WORKORDER_COSTS_LIST this will list out the costs at the value category level and also show the total costs, very similar to what IW33 shows.
The costing information can be picked up from table PMCO.

Work Order Cost Rolling Up to WBS Element!

Hi everyone,
I created a Project A with WBS structure in PS (not statistical WBS structure). And then I assigned a work order to one of the WBS element A.0001. I did not post any cost to the WBS element directly. I only charged $1000 to the work order. Now when I use CN41N to generate the cost report and I found the $1000 in work order rolled up to WBS element A.0001 ($1000 showed at work order level and also WBS element level). Then I settled $1000 in the work order to a WBS element C.0001 in Project C. When I run CN41N again to see the cost in Project A, the $1000 still showed up at work order level, but it did not show up at WBS element level A.0001. I need the cost to roll up at WBS element level also, so this is a big problem for me.
I did several test. Assigned another work order to this WBS element A.0001 and charged another $1000 to the work order. Then I settled them to cost center directly instead of to WBS element. The $1000 showed up at the work order level and also at WBS element level (the cost rolled up from work order to the WBS element in that report). Then I tried to settle to GL account, the cost will roll up to WBS element too.
So I found only when I settle the cost to WBS element, the cost won't roll up. I think it might be a configuration problem. Does anyone know where I need to configure in order to let the cost roll up to the WBS element after I settle the Work order to a WBS elements?
Really appreciate your help!

Work Order & Cost Center Commitment Management

We have a business requirement to be able to view our work order commitments (Reqs and POs) from the work order as well as from the cost center assigned to the work order via a settlement rule. Our business users do not like the work order collecting all of the costs instead of the cost center where they perform their cost controlling.
The actuals will settle to the cost center eventually but without the commitments they have no way of planning for future costs. Commitments management is activated for both the cost centers and work orders involved. I am open to any suggestions on how to achive this requirement. Thanks!

Any thoughts?

Work Order - Cost Settlement (Urgent)

Hi All,
I would like to know where i can check the costs, after doing MB31 or CO11. I suspect the way the work order flow has been setup in incorrect, as the work order is supposed to generate a purchase requisition, which is to be converted to a PO. But at the moment i just see a number in the requisition column of operations page of the work order. But no p-req's are seen in MD04 output.
I checked in MB51, i find a 101 movement for the sub-assembly work order, but the cost column is 0. Await inputs.
Vivek

Dear Vivek
1. Tick the sub-contracting box in Routing (to ensure the system generates sub-con purch reqn during MRP run & then i convert it to sub-con PO) ---> <b>This will not create Subcontracting PR during MRP run. This will create PR during Production order release or that particular operation is released.</b>
2. In the above case, after the let us first operation if you are sending it to contractor then there will be any entry in Inventory management as it is not material subcontracting it is only SERVICE subcontracting i.e. this particular operation is subcontracted. This procedure is followed when contactor is working with in your company premises.
3. The procedure you are talking about in you serial no 1 to 4 is the <b>material subcontract...</b>the procedure is as below
Let us say you have a final product C.
C needs B
B need s A
A needs raw material X and Y
In the above case
C and B is having routing
In A material master MRP2 view....enter special procurement key as subcontacting(in STD sap the key is 30), procurement key = F
A has a BOM having items X and Y.No routing for A
When youn run MRP
System will create Pl order for C and B, SUBCONTACTING PR to A and PR to x and Y
After you procure X and Y, You can convert PR of A to PO.
Then you will send the material i.e. issue the material to subcontractor through 541 and special stock O.
This stock you case see in MMBE with special stock O.
Once you receive the material A, when you do GR, the materials are issued to A and A will be inventarised with mov type 101.
The cost of serve and the cost of raw material is booked to cost center entered in subcontracting PO.
The cost of this will be settled to production order later.
I hope it is clear.

Work Order Cost/Planned data by Activity Type

Does anyone know the cube that would contain planned and actual cost for work orders using the work order activity type (AUFK-ILART)
Will reward points as always.
Richard

Hi Ashish Jain,
I have planned activity type/price with the transaction KP26, but the system doesn't return any value in planned costs of WBE.
Why?
Thanks

Work Order to cost center settlement with line item detail

Iu2019m having difficulty finding a method to settle from a work order to a cost center with line item detail. When an order is settled with KO88 or KO8G the total value for that work order/cost element combination is combined and posted to the cost center as a lump sum with the description of CTR\######. Users would like to see the individual values that posted to the work order in a cost center report such as KSB1.
I donu2019t see anything in the settlement rule, settlement profile or allocation structure that will allow line item settlement from work order to cost center. Is line item settlement possible when settling to a cost center? Is there an alternate way to see these expenses as line items in KSB1?
Thanks,
Jeff

Thanks Christian,
We've defined an allocation structure that we use for Project System and Work Order settlement and have Receiver Categories established as FXA, CTR and WBS with "by Cost Element" checked. Work order costs do settle to the cost center entered in the settlement rule, the problem is it combines all items values as a single amount when posting to the cost center.
For example:
expenses post to the work order under cost element 500000 for $500, $200, $300 and cost element 600000 for $250 and $250. The settlement rule says to settle to cost center 170000. When the settlement takes place cost center 170000 is debited $1000 to cost element 500000 and $500 to cost element 600000. We would prefer to see individual posting of $500, $200, $300 to 500000 and $250, $250 to 600000.
Thanks,
Jeff

Cost aganist Work orders by Date

Hi Friends,
Is there any standard reports available for Cost aganist Work orders by date or else please let me know any tables (apart from COEP & PMCO) are there to get the data Work orders cost per Date wise.
Thanks & Regards,
Srinika

KOTAGIRI SRINIKA
In COVP, pass the object number (OBJNR) which you will get from table AUFK for orders.
Based on this you will get the relevant cost elements with respect to document date (BLDAT) as well as the posting date (BUDAT) of the cost booked on orders.
I think by this you can get the cost based on dates for your orders.
Hope this helps.

QA11/ Production order Cost

I was wanting to know when you confirm a work order through co11n and post the qty. this automatically creates an inspection lot for us. Using QA11 or QE72 we then give the inspection lot a usage decision - if everything is OK and all material goes to unrestricted stock this works OK. My problem is that when I put some stock to scrap and samples and assign a cost centre I can only put it to the same cost centre as the work order. I want to post samples to our QA cost centre. If I have the same cost centre the actual work order costs are effected.
In MM is works OK for purchasing - we receipt the PO via MIGO_GR and this creates the inspection lot. We can then use QA11/QE72 to put a usage decision on and post the amounts to unrestricted, scrap (and assign a cost centre) and samples and assign the QA cost centre. All costs go to the correct areas.
I want to have the same functionality on the PP side and not effect the actual costs of the work order by adding a usage decision in QM and putting qty's to scrap and samples.
my client want to separate the cost fgrom Production Order.
Any help would be appreciated.

Dear Faiza,
Cost centers lying in the same profit center that of the work order is allowed for posting scrap. But the cost will get effected on the work order.
I am also waiting for answers from the experts.
Thanks for this question

Can we capitalize a Rebuild Work Order like any standard WO?

Hi,
Need to know if we can capitalize full or part of any Rebuildable Work Order to push the maintenance cost to the associated Fixed Asset?

Yes. Rebuild work order cost can also be capitalized just like the cost on a asset work order.

Gana

Hi
as you want to select Only TECO Work Order - cost settlement - further closing of those orders, you can following the procedure:
1. go with KO88 with variant of TECOed orders (multiple selection-IW38/39),
2. cost settlement
3. Mass closing of the orders with IW38/39 (with same variant as above).
in last step, some TECOed orders (TECO done by users during your processing of step-2 & 3) may be left due to outstanding amt etc.

The error message clearly says that "Cost Center validity starts from 01.10.2014" i.e. in the future period.
Change the cost center from period in the past date and try.

Issue with Cost center in PO and Work Order

Dear Expert,
I am facing an issue with respect to cost center in Purchase Order and Work Order. The PO is made against a work order. There are two cost center associated with the work order. One is updated under u201CAdditional datau201D field and other is at u201Clocationu201D . So the cost center in PO should essentially be the same one mentioned under u2018locationu2019 field of work order. So the issue here is that while creating PO, the cost center is picked from the u201Cadditional datau201D field of work order not from u2018locationu2019 field of WO.
Is there any exit available that needs to be implemented for overriding the cost center in PO or any other way of solving this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Deba

Hi,
I guess that there is already some user exit or enhancement in place, since this doesn't sound like standard SAP (picking the cost data from additional data, or even having it there).

Transfer Costs from AUC to Work Order

Hi,
Pre go-live balaces where loaded directly to the AUC, as opposed to the Work Order then settled to the AUC.
All of our capital reporting is done at work order level, therefore I want to transfer the balance from the AUC to the work order and then re-settle the work order back to the AUC. At present we cannot see the legacy costs relating to the capital project against the work order.
Is it possible to transfer costs off the AUC back to the Work Order?
Thanks
Jonski

Andres,
Yes you could accomplish it through the process you had mentioned.It would probably be the simplest way to accomplish your requirement as well.

PM work order estimate cost

I wanted to ask regarding "Estimated cost of work order"
Ponit 1- In Transaction IW32 (change work order) change the Estimated Cost field so that it does not u201Cgrey outu201D after the work order has been released. This field is available for data entry while the work order is in the CRTD status but cannot be accessed once the Work Orders changes to REL status.--is it possible to change the estimated cost after Work order released
Point2 - If ponit 1 is not possible, an alternative is to have the planned cost of the work order auto fill the estimated cost field if no value is entered when the release flag is executed. (that means can we take planned cost as estimated cost automatically if estimated cost field is blank)
our clints want these two functionality. please any body know on thes issues let me know.
thanks in advance for your help

Prakash,
Estimated cost field in work order is free text field
In work order header tab cost field, you can make mandatory setting via OIAN for all order types
Thanks

Actual costs posted to work order without maintaining costing variant

hi,
i havent maintained costing variant for work order(maintenance order) type i used to create the work order. so when i posted goods issue, how does the actual costs get posted with out maintaining the costing variant for work order type. what is the role of costing variant configuration in work order type settings.
thanks,
monica

Hi monica,
Costing variant forms the link between the application and Customizing, since all cost estimates are carried out and saved with reference to a costing variant. The costing variant contains all the control parameters for costing.
The configuration parameters are maintained for costing type, valuation variants, date control, and quantity structure control.In costing type we specify which field in the material master must the price be updated,
In valuation variant we specify in what order the system should go about accessing prices for the material master planned price, standard price, moving average price etc. Further which is the price which should be considered for activity price. How the system should select BOM and routing.
assign points if useful
Regards
Genie
