Can anybody help me on one strange problem in the production order cost analysis report.

RM consumption line shows the actual cost but doesnt show actual qty. When i look at the original document, qty is posted. Report shows plan qty(Requirement Qty) in another line but not the actual quantity. What could be the possible reasons for the same.

Thanks in advance

I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t think any cost is left on the Order. There could be a difference, but this gets placed on the account that you configure for it, in our case, our Purchase Price Variance account.

I haven’t looked at it in a long time, so I may be mistaken, but in general for orders (maybe not production orders), I think you can configure the Settlement Rules, where you specify a % to settle to some destination. You might be able to configure that to settle some % less than 100%, or it might have a catchall that gets the all the remainder.

Hopefully someone with a little more recent experience can jump in.

my question is once we settle the prod. order to the material, is any cost left in prod order

My question is here, Could you pls also explain about the total target costs,

For example we have one production order

the values of the production order for one material is

Actual cost ; 135
totaly target cost :145
planned cost 135
why there is difference in total target cost and actual costs,
Both are valuated at same standard price

Could you pls explain the total target costs, how it is caluclated and where we can see the postings related to this , when i clicked on this total target costs amount, i can see only actual cost 135 not target cost 145

Thanks

You might try COOIS. In the toolbar, there is a Layout button that lets you choose from dozens of fields to bring back in the report.

Hope that helps.

Let me first clear this thing out, i try to explain the situation.

SKu : A100 Standard price : 520 Produced qty : 10

5XXXXXXX account number, on this you see this : -5200 = 520 * 10
this is the account where the stock goes, (the finished products standard value)
after that you see this :

5XXXXXXX account : raw material account 3000
5XXXXXXX account : labour 1000
5XXXXXXX account : energy 800
5xxxxxxxx account : freight and duty 350
5xxxxxxxx account : other 150
Total : 5300

Standard for SKU A100 in KKPAN :

: raw material account 290
: labour 100
: energy 80
: freight and duty 30
: other 20
Total : 520

So something like that.

Maybe i dont take it in the count the price difference, its can be i will think about now.
Please drop me answer, if you have understood the situation.

I’m not sure I fully understand your situation, but the answer may be the Purchase Price Variance (PPV) account. Your PPV account should be set up to receive the difference between your Standard Price * Quantity and the sum of your inputs (Labour and Materials). So, you should probably see a posting like:

DR $100 to Inventory
DR $10 to PPV

CR $60 to Labour
CR $50 to Materials

That should give you a balanced entry. Step # 5 in the Process Overview above (that’s the first list of steps), discusses the settlement process and dealing with any differences (PPVs).

I hope that helps. Let me know if not.

i have a short question for this theme. If the prod order is finished, and the a cost are allocated for different cost elements, i see the following: The inventory (finished product) is updated with the standard price multi by qty. its ok, but the different cost elements have a different from the standard why is that??

For example : Standard 10usd * 10qty = 100USD its the stock account.
Labour : 60 usd
material 50 usd its 110 usd. Where cam this 10 diff?

Its a simplified example, but i have an excel sheet wich give more information for this probleme.
I thought if, the standard is 100 the cost elements must be also 100.

Please drop a mail, if you are interested about this issue !!!!
