What happens after backflusing?

[Former Member]

Hi

Can anyone tell that how are final confirmations / backflushings linked to costing...and settlement for any particular material i.e.

what exactly is the scenario after doing final backflusing..& how is this linked to product cost collector and cost estimates as many times i face issues linked with it??

Hi Vicky

When ever backflushign happen that means it is issueing material from Inventory so material document is generated which updates inventory cost also

and issue material updates cost where it is been issued like production order or sales order

debit/credit takes place when ever there is tansfer of material

Dear Vicky,

Generally Backflushing is used in REM scenario's.

1.After master data creation like material master,BOM,Rate routing,Production

version,a product cost collector is must for a HALB & FERT items.

2.Without a Product Cost Collector you can not carryout backflushing function

using MFBF.

3.For a normal REM scenario after doing backflushing GI,GR,actvities are posted.

4.The cost of the material consumed + activity cost+overhead cost(if any

assigned in the material master) = Production cost ,which can be seen in product

cost collector.

5.You can double click on each cost item and check the details.

6.GI,GR carried out after backflush means ,261 & 131 movements will be carried

out.If Quality management is not active ,then you can see the stock gets

increased for the parent material and the stock gets reduced for the child items.

7.So if you carryout assembly backflush or activity backflush or component back

flush the cost gets accumulated in the product cost collector,and if you

reverse,the cost gets reduced accordingly.

Thank u sir..for your detailed reply...but i sometimes face issues with "std cost estimate"???

i.e. sometimes they are not maintained and because of which there are errors during backflusing

Can u throw some light on this (std cost estimates) and thereby i shall close this thread

Hi Vicky,

Generally u can do two types cost estimate in Rem. Preliminary cost estimate (for production version specific ) and standard cost estimate (For material).

Before you doing backflush, u should have done cost estimte with anyone of above estimate methods.

Deponds on Cost accouting settings in rem profile, u have to do the cost estimate for material for which Rem profile to be assigned

If you want post acitivity with standard cost estimate (settings in REM porfile ) u have to do standard cost estimate before backflush otherwise system will through error.

Dear Mr.Vicky,

As you asked,Standard cost Estimate is a must.

After material master creation,BOM,Rate routing,Production version - Linking

BOM & rate routing,Product cost collector creation,the next step is Standard Cost

estimate.

Using CK40N,you have to do the cost estimate and release it.

Once you complete the job,you can check that the cost which u obtain using

CK40N can be seen in Costing 2 view under Planned price & Standard price along

with period,now its October 2007,so as per the financial year it will be showing

7,2008 calculating from April 2007.
