Cost not getting booked for new activity added in Work center

[karun_prabhu]

Hi guys.

     I have a production order PO1. PO1 has one operation with work center WC1 (WC1 has one activity defined-MACHINE MC1).

     PO1 is already released.No confirmation has been carried yet.

     Now I have added one more activity in WC1, say LABOUR LC1.

     If I confirm the operation with work center WC1, cost is not getting booked for the new activity LC1 but the hours are booked.

     But if I remove and add the same work center against the same operation or add new operation with same work center, cost is getting booked for PO1.

     I have nearly 500 production orders already released with work center WC1.

     I don't want to remove and add the same work center in the production orders to book the labour activity LC1 costs.

     How to solve this issue?

     Thanks in advance.

Hello K.Arun,

Have you maintained activity cost in KP26?One more thing you could is direct activity allocation with KB21N and post cost collectively.

header levrl data

activity unit and type changed.

apprecitate your help.

Guys,

I have maintained the activity cost in KP26.

The problem is that I have some 500 to 600 production orders already released with the same work center WC1.

Any mass function to update the table AFVC for the released production orders with this new activity added in the work center?

We had same issue sometime before,

Simplest solution is as suggested by Above experts and suggested you do it manually

or Use below FM or Ask Your technical team to explore these functional modules

- BAPI_PRODORD_CHANGE

- CO_SE_PRODORD_CHANGE

They will create a RFC enabled FM that wrap execution of a BDC if above FM is no help.

Dear,

You can use the functionality of Read PP master data, which will read the all changes done in work center or routing.

But there is no mass functionality to do Read PP master data you have to create a new LSMW for Read PP master data. I hope it will help you.

Rupesh,

     Read PP master data will not work in case the order is partially confirmed or if some goods movement had been posted.

Dear,

Yes that's true but you have only release orders as per your posting.

PO1 is already released.No confirmation has been carried yet.
     Now I have added one more activity in WC1, say LABOUR LC1.
 I have nearly 500 production orders already released with work center WC1.

Anyway once you do partial confirmation or good movement after that you do any changes to an order will create variance which is not a part practice.  I will suggest reverse the confirmation and good movement and TECO all orders and create fresh orders.

Rupesh,

     In my case, no partial confirmation has taken place but goods movement had been posted.

     I told generically about read PP master data functionality

[rupesh_brahmankar3]

Dear,

No worries, you can reverse the good movement and TECO all the orders which you can do in mass.

After that create all new production orders.

Else you need to use BDC or BAPI to replace work center in production order.

All the best.

Hi.  K.Arun Prabhu

The problem is when you update the Work Center, the order operation (table AFVC-LAR01 02 03 04 05 06) Is not updated with the new activity. This is the standard behavior and guess this is correct because the order read master data at the time of creation.

I dont think that update this table, nor enhance CO11N in order to fill this field is a solution, i mean its to risk and i dont think that work.

DeeJoy is correct about KB21 in order to post the activity directly
