Fixed Lot size in Standard cost estimate

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Issue: When standard cost estimate is run, the conversion cost of sfgs are being proportioned as per the required quantity of sfg. But the conversion costs are based on capacity and changes only on slab basis.

Requirement: The costing lot size of sfgs (for conversion cost purpose) to be taken based on group and group counter maintained in material master and the same to fixed

Example : If the SFG Conversion cost = Activity price * 1 Machine hours ( slab = 100 -120 KGs). Means if the SFG required is 100 or 110 or 120, conversion cost remains same.

FG1 100KG                                  

SFG Required - 110 KG

FG2 100KG

SFG Required- 115 KG

In both the FGs the SFG Conversion cost has to be same.

Please advise on how to achieve this in CK40N?

We achieved this in CK11N through 'Always pass on Lot size' in OKKN. We need this in CK40N where it is disallowing (Note 390316).

Your quick response is appreciated.

Hello Vimal,

I don't think it is possible to pass on lot size to CK40n where it is for collective costing run, what is the need to do it in CK40n do you have a lot of materials like this?

The costing lot size used is in the material master. This is system design.

I think in Standard sap ITS NOT POSSIBLE .As the SAP note-390316 describes which you already read.

Dear Vimal

Probably you are using using production versions. And you are using it at CK11N. Make that version default at material master of SFG, you will achieve the desired value.

Hi Rajaneesh/Hrushikesh/other experts,

We are not using production version, but we are giving the routing numbers in costing tab. Even that is not helping because system is using the formula

Activity in cost estimate = Activity in routing / costing lot size * required quantity (as per bom)

We are able to achieve the desired result by activating pass on lot size but it is not allowed in CK40N. Also i really don't understand the concept why it is allowed in CK11n and not in CK40N

But this being a genuine and pretty simple business requirement, ie. to have the conversion cost fixed for sfgs irrespective of the required quantity , there has to be a solution for this.

Any further pointers will be helpful.

Best Regards
