Stock & non-stock spares cost in maintenance order

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have maintained separate value category for stock spares cost & non-stock spares cost to view spares cost in different line in maintenance order cost tab page.But in my case, both cost for stock & non-stock spares is coming only in one line item i.e stock spares cost.Can anybody pl suggest how can I bifurcate these two type of spares cost in two lines in maintenance order cost tab page?

Thanks in advance

Hi

I assume that the issue is with your Cost elements assignments ..Check with configuration.OIK2..You have to consult with your FI,MM Guys to getting the solution.The cost element groups are maintaining in KAH3 once newly created by FI.So get seperate cost element for the non stock material.

But in practical case its not possible to get the different cost as you need..Because the same material can be planned thro reservation or Non stock thro its item catagories. I mean the material master is same in both case.

Basically the value of the item is playing thro the valuation class and its G/L assignments.The G/L no is calling as Cost element since its primary G/L..This setting is configured by MM guys thro FI persons..This automatic G/L (cost element derivation) you cant change.. Also additionally most of the clients wont appreciate the Non stock item receipt since there is no track for inventory thro consumption regards the posting by inventory peoples..

Also the total cost (GR of Non stock items) will hit directly into the order.This will be wrong some case since users most of the times creating excess PR than required to keep the stock.

Anyhow still expecting more replies in this thread..

Hello Rajib,

You might have assigned similar Cost element to both of value category, check them then let me know.

Please check the following configuration.

1) Cost element in your value categories. Generally you should have different cost element in order to segregate.

2) Check the GL which system is taking when you provide a Non stock item in the component tab. Check in the purchase data tab.

3) Check Default Value Profiles for External Procurement check the G/L account in configuration.
