System generates the following mistake while trying to post variance to production order :
@0A@ E KV 151 1 ORD 1060002726 0 Only remaining var. in version 0 - no target costs for 001060002726 Variances
target costs are 0.
Production order has statrus TECO.
Is there any workround to post variance? I just need to create a test case and the most dirty approach will suit me.
Thanks
Hi,
You would need to have a released standard cost estimate, for orders with FUL settlement at the time of the final delivery or
technical closing. If the cost estimate is not there, then the message KV151 will appear. This message is in most of the cases linked to other messages e.g. KV154. More detailed information you will find in the message long text explainations.
As a consequence of the situation explained in message KV151 the system cannot split the difference between the planned costs and the control costs into different variance categories when it calculates the variances. Instead, the difference is updated as a remaining variance only. But the value of the variance calculation is still correct. The posting in table COSBA will be done in spite of the message KV151.
Please review the attached note 586624. You can set the minimum message type of message KV151 only to warning.
You can still see the 'online' calculation of the target costs in CO03 cost analysis report in report 'Target/Actual
comparaison', only if good receipt have taken place. This is only for information purposes since no variance calculation has taken place yet.
If you can accept the variance as remaining variance, you can change the message KV151 into a warning message in transaction OPR4_KKS and OPR4_KKS1.
If you don't accept the variance as remaining variance, Please try to cancel the status TECO and DLV. Then please create a standard cost estimate for the material and change the status to TECO or DLV again.
After that you will not get KV151 any more.
Target costs are planned costs (from the material cost estimate in version 0) standardized to the actual quantity (goods receipt).
However, you can see in transaction KKBC_ORD whether order has an actual output quantity.
If not then target costs cannot be calculated and only remaining variancs can be calculated (->KV151).

Hi Guevara,
Just to refresh the meaning of target cost, it is calculated on the basis of the planned cost. Now planned cost is your standard cost estimate of that particular item. So Variance is compared with the target cost.
I assume that there is no standard costs estimates which has been calculated for the item for which production order is released. First have a standard cost estimation and again you can release a new order for the same item in test scenario and then calculate variance after posting actuals to the production order.
please revert if you require additional information.

makrand

HI,
did you try to settle (KO88)? As there are no target cost, the whole balance should be settled as "remaining variance". So if it can be done in a rough way, try to remove the variance key for the particular order...
Best regards, Christian
