Cost Estimate in Mass

[Former Member]

Dear Experts

Is there any way to calculate cost estimate in mass.

I have to release standard cost of around 2000 codes.

We are using ck11n for cost calculation and then saving of estimated cost in ck24

I am unable to create BDC for the same,beacuse BDC recording stops once cost is calculated ,it does not propt for another code.

Thanks in Advance.

Hey Raj,

Use CK40N transaction code for Standard Cost Estimate for Materials in Mass.

Create Costing Run, select the Materials which need to be costed and go ahead...

In CK11N and CK24, you will be able to do it for single material at a time...

Pls revert back if you are looking for something more...

Hi!

In material selection parameters you have options to select/limit materials, like material type, material range, if you want enter some materials , you can click on arrow mark and insert number of materials and you can also save this variant for future, try to explore all possibilities.

you can also check the programs : SAPRCK60,SAPRCK62, SAPRCK6W

Hi Raj,

When you save the Costing Run in CK40N, you will be able to see the button for "Selection Parameters". There in, you can select different Materials for costing by selecting Material Codes, Material Types, Plants etc.

1. If you want to exclude the Materials from a single Costing Run...

If you want to exclude some Materials from Costing Run, when you select the Materials to be costed in the "Selection Parameters" of Costing Run, press the Arrow button for additional selections, click on "Exclude Single Values" and mention the Materials which you want to exclude from the Costing Run.

In the selection, you can select all the Plants (Plant 1 to Plant 4). By this, system will exclude those materials which you mentioned from all Plants when you run the Cost Estimate.

2. If you want to exclude the Materials from being costed on permanent basis...

Go to MM17 (materials mass maintenance), select the "Fields" tab, "Find" - "NCOST", select that row, press "Execute". Now, select/give all the Materials which you want to exclude from being costed, mention the Plants and "Execute". You will see the list of Materials which you have mentioned and on the right hand side, you will see the column with "NCOST" field. Mark "X" for all materials there.

This NCOST field is nothing but "Do Not Cost" check box in "Costing1" of Material Master. By this, system will understand that, whenever Cost Run is done, all these materials should be excluded from being costed.

Pls free to Cal me in case you need more explanation...
