In S4 HANA Public Cloud where do I find Configuration for OKYD and OKEQ?

[goody-1]

I have SAP S4 HANA books about Costing Version and CO Controlling Version 0 having exchange rate type marked but they all refer to t-codes OKYD and OKEQ.  Where do I find this configuration in S4 HANA Public Cloud?

Hi goody-1

I am not directly familiar with the legacy transactions so I don't have a complete answer for you.

But I believe you are leading with the wrong question in regards to SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

There is not a guaranteed 1:1 equivalency with OnPrem or Private.

You need to start with the requirement, then look into the best practices in the Process Navigator

To get started, the Fiori Apps Library will be helpful, for example, Schedule Product Costing Jobs

https://fioriappslibrary.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fix/externalViewer/index.html#/detail/Apps('F3683')/S...

From there, you can see the relevant best practice for the job is Actual Costing (33Q)

The best practice will provide links to test scripts you can use to execute the process, perform configuration, etc.

Additionally, in the help: Production Accounting

In the help you can also find the Feature Scope Description: https://help.sap.com/doc/7c9e0bbbd1664c2581b2038a1c7ae4b3/2502.500/en-US/FSD_CE2502.pdf

I hope this helps

Hello Jerry,

Thanks for your reply but I am curious how to create a Cost Estimate without using Exchange Rate Type "P". Currently when we run CK11N for a material at a Canadian location but sourced from a USA location it uses "P" to generate the new estimate price.  We want it to use "M" since we don't maintain the "P" rate.  Everything I read states you can make a change in Costing Version using OKYD but that is not available in Public Cloud.  I'm asking is how can we change the configuration for Costing Version 1 so that it uses Exchange Rate Type "M" instead of "P"

Also how do I view the CO Version Because I want to check what the Exchange Rate Type default is for the Controlling area Version.  s

Thank you, 

Dan Goodhart

Note:  Here is an example of how the Exchange Rate Type can be changed for CO Version 0 by using the SAP GUI t-code.  But in Public Cloud I cannot find how to change CO Versions or Costing Versions and I've search SAP For Me, SAP Community and SAP Help with no luck.

Hi Dan

I checked with a colleague and got this feedback.

Exchange Rate issue for Material Cost Estimates
This is the standard behavior of the system. At another customer, the exchange rate type P was only maintained once a year. If they want to update the exchange rate it is possible but the common practice is to have a frozen exchange rate type P with the date of 01/01/Current Year.

So basically, change the rate of P instead of switching to M. In his case, can they simply maintain P (because he mentioned they do not currently maintain it)?

For now, I will leave this question unanswered and hopefully someone else can reply.

Hello Chuma,

Thank you for the reply but when I do the search I get this:

The "Define Versions" search puts me in the Material Requirements Planning section not Production Cost.  

Any thoughts on why this is not showing what I need for costing?

Hi Dan

Looks like you might be on a Solution Builder system versus a CBC -based configuration. 

Could be some of the naming is different, not sure.

You could expand your search to 'Cost' or 'Costing'.

You can find a list of all the available SSCUIs (configuration apps) on the Process Navigator, which might help

Hi Dan,

Thank you for your question.

“Define Versions” leads to MRP and not Costing in your S/4HANA Public Cloud because the search term corresponds to a more generic SSCUI for planning versions used in MRP. To access costing versions, use SSCUI 102617 or ensure you are in the Product Cost Planning configuration area with scope item BJE activated.

Checkpoint	What to Do
Incorrect Role Assigned	Ensure the role SAP_BR_BPC_EXPERT (Business Process Configuration Expert) is assigned to your user.
Scope Item Not Activated	Confirm that Scope Item BJE – Product Cost Planning is activated in your system.
Search Too Broad	Instead of searching “Define Versions”, use the specific SSCUI number: 102617 to go directly to the correct configuration.
App Filter Too Narrow	Expand your filters by selecting All Application Areas, or specifically Finance, to view relevant costing-related apps.

Just let me know if it works

With kind regards

Chuma

Hello Chuma,

Thanks again but this isn't the issue either.  ID 102617 takes me to Profitability Area.
