Cost From BOM, WorkCentre, Routing

[Former Member]

Hai Techies,

Could you please help me with some inputs for my query related to capturing cost from BOM, Workcentre, routing. To capture the cost should it always require to have an production order?

My doubt is mainly with respect to new product where they are creating a new product and during the new product implementation. So for the new product there wont be any production orders(correct me if im wrong). In that case how to compute the cost of the product.

Is there any possibilities.

Thanking you in advance.

Hi,

In SAP you need to have either production order ( Discrete ) or planned order ( REM) in place to capture the cost.

cost are captured when you book confirmation in Co11n or MFBF.

From PP side you need to maintined OPL8 custmizing for planned and actual costing variant. These costing varaints are created in CO.

In BOM you need to mainating stock items and in staus / langauage text view maintin indicator , item relevent for costing.

In Routing operations you need to maintin contorl key which allows costing as well as in detailed operation view maintain indicator, costing allowed for operations.

Work center has cost center attched to it. It also has different costing formulas which helps you to claculate activity costs of individual operations to which work center is attached.

Hi Gopalakrishnan,

Mr. Santosh has rightly suggested you the settings required. For costing part you need to take CO consultants help.

Hi

You can use KKE1 Create cost estimate with base planning object.

Here no need to create FG material code.

Planned components -Category-M-- BOM

Internal activity-category E -Operaions

it will give FG Price from components-Price and Operation-activity cost.

Dear Gopalakrishnan,

As per my understanding of your question, If you want to post the manufacturing cost in the system for any transactions then you required Production order. But if you just want to know the manufacturing cost, then you can calculate it through Cost Estimate run. This can be done by first running the cost estimate for material through transaction CK11N and then Marking and Release the price through transaction CK24. This you can also calculate collectively through transaction CK40N. From this you can also change the material master price.

But for taking cost estimate run, first you need to complete the CO customizing required for this and Material Master, BOM and Routing with Costing indicator set.

Please revert if you need further clarifications.

Hai Hiren,

Thanks for your reply. But can you please specify what are the customizing in BOM, Work Centre, and routing for this. Also if possible can you specify the customizing for CO.

Your support would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance
