What is the Purpose of activity consumption in Activate Actual Costing (Change Activity update settings)
There are three options in screen,
0= Update is not active
1= Update is active but not relevant to price determination - Revaluation of Production Order at Actual prices is required - Please explain it with some examples?
2= Update is active and relevant to price determination - Plan - Actual Variance of cost center are debited to material when calculating actual prices of activities. Revaluation of Production order at actual prices is not required. - Please explain it with some examples?
Can any body explain it with some examples.?
Hi,
1= Update is active but not relevant to price determination - Revaluation of Production Order at Actual prices is required
2= Update is active and relevant to price determination - Plan - Actual Variance of cost center are debited to material when calculating actual prices of activities. Revaluation of Production order at actual prices is not required.
Thanks

Hi Muhammad,
Above are the Pros and Cons for option 1 and 2. If your production process is backflush the standard activity hours/unit then record the actual activity hours/unit. Then i recommend you to select option 2 because option 2 provide your "Distribution consumption difference" function. Check link below.
If your company must include the actual activity cost in the production variance calculation then you need to select option 1.
Both will give you the same result at material actual price.
Thanks.
Hi,

Dear Mr. Muzammil Please note that:-
1= Update is active but not relevant to price determination
if you chose this option that system will update activity type and process in to the quantity structure but will not update it into actual costing. in such case you can use t code like MFN1 KSII or CON2. this option 1 is used especially when you want to receive information about the actual quantity structure.
2= Update is active and relevant to price determination
this option is used when you want to add activity variance and other variances like price variances in calculation of actual price at periodic end. with this option you are unable to use revaluation of actual price function at month end because if you are using option#2 then system will post the variance from cost center to directly on material and if you are also using revaluation function then it will post twice variance on the material and credit the cost center twice.
for actual costing we normally used option 2
