How Cost component Determines The Correct Cost Elements?

160 Views

Hi,

In the cost component views i have cost element XXX is mapped to cost component Local raw materials and cost element YYY to imported raw materials and my local raw materials are linked to BSX inventory accounts of ZZZ. In this regard i have the following questions :-

1) When i create cost estimates (t.code CK11N) for a local raw material the system is showing this costs correctly under local raw material cost component, how the system know that this is local raw material and not an imported raw material? Because no where in the config settings i have mapped cost element XXX to local raw materials because XXX is a consumption cost element. The only config i have maintained for this raw material is linking it to the ZZZ account which is the balance sheet stock account. So how the system will determine this particular material is linked to cost element XXX and not YYY?
