Quantity Based Overheads

[Former Member]

Hi SAP Gurus,

I have a serious problem with Quantity Based Overheads. The client has asked for Qty Based Overheads in the last moment. And somehow it is not working properly. I have done it in ECC6 but it is not working in ECC6.

Kindly let me know any specific problem in ECC6 for calculating Qty Based Overheads.

I have done the following settings:

In costing Sheet i have given the parameters. Then in Material Master i have selected Material Origin. Then i have selected Qty indicator and given Unit of measurement in Relevant Cost Element.

URGENT. PLEASE

Solution to this problem will be suitably awarded with marks

Hi,

Good afternoon and greetings,

Please go through the following

To calculate quantity-dependent overhead rates , the units of measure must be updated in CO.

You have two options:

Set the "mangage quantity" indicator in the cost element master data.

If you wish to post different materials with different units of measure to an object (order, cost center, business process, WBS element...) under the same cost element, you must set the Material origin indicator in the costing view for the material master record. Materials with various units of measure must also differ in the "origin group" field entry.

The system only accounts for input materials and activities with units of quantity for quantity-based overhead that are updated in CO. These are the base units of measure for materials.

Conversions between units of measure

Also ensure that the Cost Center inside the Credit tab is maintained as for the Overheads it is mandatory.

Please reward points if found useful

Thanking you

With kindest regards

Hi,

The configurations in ECC 6 is similar to the earlier ones.

Using T/code:OKKN u have to assign the costing sheet in the overhead tab .

Hope this solve your problem.
