I create a budget assessment cycle 

Responsibility area: Maintain cycles


Responsibility:

  1. Controlling - Information for the cycle - Template for the Budget Cycle
  2. GBS - Analyse and create the cycle.




  Guideline  

Receive the Costing Model file completed by a FRA.


STEP 1

Open the template you received and go to the tab 

you can find : 

  1. the list of direct production cost centers PPPP-1
  2. the list of fixed cost centers PPPP-1 & PPPP-2
  3. the allocation keys

 

 

 

 

 

 

For instance : the cost center 8035-2110 must be allocated as below : 

Receivers%
8035-100040
8035-100110
8035-10024
8035-100336
8035-100410

 

 


STEP 2


Costs from indirect cost centers are transferred to direct cost centers using assessment cycles and allocation structures that must be defined


The allocation structure to be used depends on the group that was defined by the FRA and that can be found in the tab 

For instance the cost center 8035-2100 belongs to the group EPRD6X

 

 

 

An allocation structure is assigned to each group 

For instance the allocation structure assigned to the group EPRD6X is CM

So it means that the cost center 8035-2100 must be settled using the allocation structure CM that replaces the secondary cost elements 99422300 for the fixed costs and 99423000 for the depreciation.

STEP 3

Review the allocation structure to be used for each cost center. In case of doubt you can contact the Regional Costing Manager

 

 

 

 


STEP 1

Use transaction code : KSU7

 

 

KSU7 - Create Plan Assessment Cycle : Initial Screen

 

 


STEP 2

Enter the cycle code (=PPPPBU => PPPP is the plant code)

and the starting date (1st day of the coming year) and 

 

 


STEP 3

 

  1. Enter the validity date (to last day of the year)
  2. Enter the description of the cycle (PPPP Plant name - Budget)
  3. Check the Indicator "Iterative"
  4. Check the Field Groups "Object Currency"

 

 


STEP 4

Click 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


STEP 5

Enter the segment code (cost center code) and description (cost center code & name)

 

 


STEP 6

Update the tab "Segment Header" :

  1. Enter the allocation structure or the assessment cost element if there is no allocation structure available
  2. Sender values:
    • Sender rule = Posted amounts
    • Share in % = 100 %
  3. Receiver tracing factor : 
    • Fixed percentage

 

 


STEP 7

Go to the tab "Senders/Receivers"

 

 


STEP 8

Update the tab "Senders/Receivers"

  1. Enter a cost center or a group of cost center (group in the standard hierarchy)
  2. Enter a group of cost element ZRCS-CNP (for fixed costs) or ZRCS-AMO (for depreciation). It is not necessary when an allocation structure is used
  3. Enter the receiving cost center or group of cost centers (PPPP-1)

 

 


STEP 9

Go to the tab "Sender Values"

Version = 0

 

 


STEP 10

Go to the tab "Receiver Tracing Factors"

=> Enter the allocation key per receiving cost center 

 

Total = 100

 

 


STEP 11

Create a new segment by clicking 

 

 

 


STEP 12

Save 

 

 

 

Once the cycle is created and the budget uploaded, you can run the cycle - I run budget cost centers cycles

  1. ROLLIER, Charlotte We don't have the allocation structure for group of CC's EPRD0X WORKSHOP

    1. For the group EPDR0X, you can use the allocation structure CM

      1. ROLLIER, Charlotte, Hamburger, Joao this was the problem we sent you in the email yesterday. CM will not work for group EPRD0X because the labor costs are being considered incorrectly.

        We tried used 2 different segments instead of CM (1 for CNP and 1 for AMNO) and it worked.

        So, we should proceed like that (2 segments with distinguish by sender CE group ZRCS-CNP or ZRCS-AMO), right? Or the allocation structure should be updated?

        If it's supposed to use 2 different segments, which are the Assessment CE that we should use?

        We noticed that Melle is using 99422000 for CNP, while Poland uses 99422300. Also for AMO, Melle has 99423052 while Poland has 99423000.

        Thanks in advance.

  2. In Step 2, the "Allocation Structure" table is not complete. It is missing ECPXX,RDDB1, EMSVDA.

    Where we can find the complete table? Which ones we can use to continue with this test?

    1. The aim of the procedure is to create a cycle for indirect production cost centers. They should be included in a group that starts with EPRDx. If the controller wants to allocate a cost center that is included in another group, it is a mistake or in the cost center group or in the allocation. Then you can ask the RCOM to investigate
