Issue of Product costing of Material at depot

[Former Member]

Dear All,

As we all know that we have to do costing of material at plant level if Product costing & Profit analysis is implemented.

but in my client system is asking to do the costing of material at depot level as well for the material which are transfer from plant.

I don't know why this is happening.

System should not ask to do costing at depot level

hi.

If I understand your case , you have produced material at plant level and transferred the same material to depot .

Pl check in materail master whether special procurement in MRP2 is defined for receiving Plant/Depot.

Hi Shyam

What is your business need? Do you want COGS in COPA as a single figure or do you want a breakup of COGS as raw materials, packing materials, labor, etc

-

If you want it as one single figure - Then do not assign costing keys to material types in KE4J or KEPC

If you want the break up - Then you should assign costing key in KE4J or KEPC...

-

I think, in your scenario sales are made from the depot and you have done the settings in KE4J or KEPC... thats why you are being asked for a cost estimate

In order to fetch the cost break up from the mfg plant into the depot plant so that the same is passed on to COPA, you need to do the following settings

1. Go to OMD9 (Spl Procurement keys)

2. Click on New entries: Enter your Plant = Plant 2 (receiver plant) "SP Pr Type" = Z1 and Proc Type = F;

3. Under Special Procurement Secrion

Enter U as special procurement and Plant 1 in the Plant Field (Transferring plant)

4. Save this entry, and in Mat Master of Plant 2, specify F as Proc Type and Z1 as Special proc key

5. Run CK11N in Plant 2... and release from CK24

Hi

As I said earlier also - If you are making sale from Depot and if you want COGS break up in COPA then you have to run CK11N/Ck24 at depot level... There is no choice in this regard

If you dont want COGS break up in COPA, then dont need to do that at depot level

Client is asking they want COGS Breakup and dont want to do CK11n and ck24 either at depot.

so it is assumed that this is not possible.

Hi

In my opinion this is not possible... You can schedule CK40N in background for the depot plant and that job can run daily....

I can think of a work around, which you need to test.. I have never done this before

1. In your costing key KE40 - De-select "Line Item plant as Cost Estimate Plant"

2. Write a derivation rule in KEDR to Derive/Force the PLANT to mfg plant i.e.

By default, the Selling Plant is updated in COPA... But, you need to write a derivation rule so that the PLANT is forced as the Manufacturing PLANT

For this, Create a STEP in KEDR using CLEAR Option and clear the PLANT

Below this STEP, create another STEP in KEDR and default the Manufacturing Plant...

Your Job will be easy if you have one single mfg plant... If you have multiple plants, then you will have to find out a way how will you write derivation rules accordingly...
