Variances in CO03

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

There are some Production Orders which were settled through co88. All these production orders are for semi-finished products. Whne we run Co88 the production variance is going and sitting in PRD-PRF A/c(In val.class xxxx - SFgoods). When i check the production order co03>goto>cost analysis>

cost element-xxxxxxxxx(change in work in process)

Origin-nothing is there

totat target costs: 0.00

total actual costs:1000

target/actual var: 1000

t/I var % ; (nothing is here)

the same diff 1000 is going and sitting in production variance account. (PRD-PRF-VAL CLASS-XXXX(SFG).

But there is not much diff between actual/target(

0.02 paise only) all together.

Why the amount 1000 only is going to production variance account?

Please clarify. thanks in advance

Hello Mammu,

I have taken a training session on Material Ledger and I was informed the Production Order didn't carry the product prices variation. All of the variations will be always saved on these PRD-PRF-PRY (see OBYC transaction) accounts. It is an SAP standard thing (and the instructor said this is the worst thing we see into the CO module of SAP).

I hope it helps you.

Regards,

Daniel.

Hi Daniel,

We are currently have the following setting in OBYC.

GBB > AUA- (GL account 123456) and posting to COPA

PRD > PRF (GL account 3456789) and where should this posting go? or both should go to COPA?

Any help is appreciated...

Thanks,

Anusha

Hello Anusha,

The postings to PRD > PRF should go to the FI General Ledger (See FS10N transaction - the GL Account Balance).

With Material Ledger you can analyze better the material costs.

I hope it helps you.

Best Regards,

Daniel.
