Large Variance Posted

[Former Member]

Hi,

We use the Transaction Code KG12 to calculate the Overhead. this is a monthly exercise and there is a tendency to skip this process by the users. as a result the huge order balances recorded (including the Overhead Value). Finally it will have a impact to the PL as Production Variance.

in summary the major portion of you production variance is due non calculation of Overhead and we want to improve this process. Isn't there any system control to make the Overhead Calculation Mandatory?

We created backtground jobs that run automatically each month.

All steps are included and since not person is selecting the buttons to push - everything runs in a consistent manner each month

You can go for modifications in "ObjectStatus" OR Enchancements.

Put a status check, for WIP calculation, variance calculation and settlement.

Meaning, at the time of executing the above 3 transaction, system should check whether Overhead is already calculated or not.

Tcode BS02. Create status profile, and assign in order type masterdata.

HI,

Standard SAP it will not provide that overhead calculation is mandatory before posting variance calculation. It is upto the company to post overhead calcualtion or not.
