commitment\statistical cost\actua cost

$

Hi All,

 

The process of PR\PO\GR have already been done in the last year, statistical cost came to project when I do the Goods Receipt (GR).

 

In this current year, when I do the goods issue, the real actual cost will hit project.

 

In this scenerio, the budget is assigned for yearly, but the actual cost is consume last year budegt, no budget in current year.

 

The budget and actual cost do not match in one year.

 

I look forwards to all the SAP Experts how to think about this scenerio.

Hi there,

 

I am trying everything to get the activity type on the CATS (CAT2) screen but whatever I do it just doesn't seem to be appearing. When I go to CAC2, I have selected activity type as Required in the "influences". It however doesn't seem to be in the "Data Entry Section" Modifiable fields. If anyone has any idea what I can do I'd be very grateful!!!

 

Cheers.

plan periodic progress of a project

Dear all,

 

I have created a project with some activities and wbs elements where a progress version is assigned to the activities. The planning and actual measurement methods are 'time proportional' and 'work' in the assigned progress version. I want to obtain a monthly plan of the project progress but I dont know how to do this.

consider the start of the project is 01/05/2015 and i want to obtain the project progress plan at the end of the months 05, 06, ... until the end of the 2015 year:

 

30/05/2015            x1 %

30/06/2015            x2 %

30/07/2015            x3 %

30/08/2015            x4 %

...

 

I try it by cne1 and cne 5, but it does not give me the plan poc of the project monthly but it calculates only the poc for the first activity in the network. I think it works based on the current date.

 

Please give me some guidance on this issue and clear me how can i obtain the plan progress of project at the end of each month.

 

Regards

SAP PS Availibility Control on CO Order connected with WBS Element

$
0

Hi,

 

I have some Problems with availbility control on SAP PS.

 

We use SAP PS Projects with one root wbs element and a some underlying wbs elements. We are budgeting these wbs elements.

 

For detailed accouting we use internal orders. These internal orders are connected to wbs elements.

 

Now we want to use availibilty control. We face the Problem that the availibilty control does not work on our internal orders.

 

Example:

 

CJ20N : Project Definition and wbs elemtens

     - created Project A, wbs element w1 as root element and w2 as child element to w1

 

CJ30 : Budgeting

     - put 100€ to w1 and w2

 

CJBV

 

KO04 : internal order o1

     - created internal order and reference wbs element to w1

 

ME51N : create a purchase Requisition with Price of 200

     - account assingment category: order --> o1

 

When I save the purchase requisition I would expect a error message that there is not enough budget. But there is no message.

 

The availbiltity controls works fine if the internal order does not reference the wbs element.

 

I have checked the internal order (that reference the wbs element) and availibity control is not active. But I can't activate it manually. When I try to set Budget to internal order o1 SAP said that the Budget is control by wbs element.

 

 

How can I activate availibility control on internal orders conneted with wbs elements?

MRP not considering available stock for requirements from PS

$

Dear Experts,

 

We are using SAP PS for our client and facing issue in stock determination while MRP run.

For the material used, unrestricted stock is available. There is a reservation created for the material through PS requirement. The reservation created is lesser than the available unrestricted stock.

At the time of MRP run, system is creating procurement proposal i.e. purchase requisition for the PS requirement. The unrestricted stock is not considered for fulfilling the demand from project.

 

We want the system to consider the total stock available and need not to create the procurement proposal by ignoring available stock for projects.

 

Your inputs are highly appreciated.

Hello PS gurus,

 

I am getting different values of commitment in S_ALR_87013533 report and CJI5 report.

 

Report S_ALR_87013533 shows 267,831 EUR but CJI5 shows 232300 EUR.

 

In other report S_ALR_87013558 showing commitment value as 267,831 EUR.

 

Now I am not sure if I am comparing right values in report.

 

Can you please tell me where I am doing mistake? Is my comparison is incorrect or my standard report shows incorrect values?

 

Your early reply will help me a lot.

how to creat commitment for PO PR but not creat statistical cost for GR

Hi,


Quantities and Values in Valuated Project Stock: Example - Material - SAP Library


Planning

Material FIN-M is assigned to network activity V10 and is managed in the project stock for WBS element P/4711.1.

The network type is flagged as appended and apportioned to the WBS.

Before the first MRP planning run or before the planned orders are converted into purchase requisitions or production orders, the following amounts appear in WBS element P/4711.1:

  • Planned costs of $500,00
  • Remaining order plan value of $300,00

The MRP controller begins by converting the planned orders. First, the planned order for the material RAW-M is converted into a purchase requisition and the planned order for the material SEMI-M is converted into production order A2.The order type is flagged as not appended and apportioned to the WBS.The remaining order plan value in the WBS element changes by the amount of the internal activities portion of production order A2 to $400,00 (300,00 + 100,00).After the purchase requisition is converted into a purchase order, a cost commitment of $50,00 also appears in WBS element P/4711.1.

External Procurement

Valuated goods are received for the purchase order, but the price is $10 different at $60. Assuming that material RAW-M is price-controlled, this gives rise to a debit posting of $60,00 in the stock account and credit posting of $60 in the GR/IR clearing account (Financial Accounting).If the inventory accounts was created as a cost element in CO, the following appear in WBS element P/4711.1:

  • Statistical actual costs of $60,00 in the stock cost element
  • A cost commitment of $0,00

If material RAW-M is price-controlled the standard price is $50,00, the postings in Financial Accounting are: $50,00 debit to a stock account $10,00 debit to a price difference $60,00 credit to the GR/IR clearing account

In this case, the only figure in the WBS element would be statistical actual costs of $50,00.

 

 

Aboveexcerpt fromSAPhelp, may I know how to do configuration to creat commitment for PO PR but not creat statistical cost for GR?

 

Thanks and regards,

Ray

SAP PPM and PS for projects involving several plants

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I am investigating the possibility to plan and control the development costs at the company with the SAP PS or PPM. Thus, the goal was having team members booking their labor hours to the projects (Maybe through CATS?), so that project managers could have a detailed and exact overview of the costs of their projects attributed to each person and department. However, since a development project takes place at several sites, with team members in different plants working for it, I have been told that with SAP PS it is not possible to do it because at PS a project would be attributed to one Plant, and therefore people in other plants, from the same company, would not be able to book their labor hours to the projects. Is that really so? Is there a way to bypass this problem? Can different WBSs at the same project be attributed to different plants?

 

Thanks a lot for any help!

workflow issues for CATS approval

$

Dear experts,

 

I have read a lot about the tasks and workflow for cats ESS/MSS but i have still some doubts about them:

 

1- whats is the effect of the check box "with SAPbusiness workflow" in CAC1? when i check this box some of our employees can record and save their working times while some other can not! (i have assigned the task TS31000007)

 

2- how can i use a workflow for time sheet approvals? i know that cats approval is working with a single-step task, but how could i start a workflow (single-step or multi-step workflow) for MSS approval? consider, e.g. i want to start a single-step (multi-step) workflow where the recorded times go for one higher-level manager (multi higher-level managers) and he (they) approves or rejects the times.

 

Please clarify and guide me on these issues.

 

Regards

Please clarify with a example if possible.
