Production Order cost from Work Center Activities

[faisal_khan]

Hi,

We created a Production Order for Quantity 10 PAC.

The Routing for the Material has one operation with Machine and Labour rates for 24hrs each agaist Base Quantity of 10,000 PAC (image attached) routing.png. The rates is set as Rs 100 for each activity.

Based on our calculation when 10 PAC are confirmed, then each activity will consume 0.024Hrs for 10hrs (based on Routing) and a value/cost of Rs 2.4 each thus Rs 4.8 in total will be actual cost.Till this point its all Ok.

My query is when I run the tcode S_ALR_87013620 to see the actual cost on Cost Center (the one assigned to the Routing's Workcenter) it shows negative 4.8 (-4.8 image attached for actual line item report). s-alr-report.png

Note for the image above: The confirmation was initially cancelled and then confirmed again

I was expecting positive 4.8 as actual cost incurred on the Cost center. Please clarify

Thanks

Faisal

Hai faisal.khan ,

You should check whether cost center total expense split by activity "3091” have negative value.

Please also check S_ALR_87013611 report for the cost center having negative activity price. Probably some activity independent cost is disturbing your activity price.

Also simulate KSII and select your cost center then select 'Components' from menu 'GO TO'. You will find at what value the price is based. Then verify what unwanted cost is coming into calculation.

You can also check S_ALR_87013644 report.

Best regards

Anita

Hi Anita,

Please find attached the KP26 screenshot showing the Variable price as 95.83 and 100 for the month of November in which we did the posting.

It seems to be fine (ref to my initial post and calculations) as far as the rates and their final calculations are concerned, but its just why the final Actual cost is negative.
