I distribute actual cost to activity types 

Process: Product Costing

Responsibility area: Perform product costing monthly closing



Reverse of the Product Costing

In case of the need to reverse product costing, we should start reversing the transactions from the end to the beginning.

We only need to reverse the transaction that have this option:

KK88 (For the companies using production orders, the transaction is CO88)
KKP5
KKPX
KKN1 (For the companies using production or process orders, the transaction is CON2)

KSII and KKS2 is not possible to reverse.

Important:

After performing the reverse of the necessary transactions we must re-run the product costing process according with the sequence explained in Responsibility area: Perform product costing monthly closing
All transactions must be executed again, even the ones that haven’t been reversed (KSII and KSS2). The system recalculates the related figures without having the need to reverse these steps of the process.

I distribute actual cost to activity types >> OP.064



  Guideline  

Before start product costing we must guarantee that all cost objects, with the exepcion of production cost centers and production orders, are balanced.

This transaction splits the actual costs posted in production cost centers, according to the activity types.

STEP 1

Start the transaction using the menu path or transaction code KSS2

Double-click 


 

Actual Cost Splitting : Initial Screen

 

 

STEP 2

  1. Enter a cost centers group or use a variant

    Never mark "all cost centers"

  2. Enter the closing period and the fiscal year
  3. Unflag "Test Run" and keep "Detail Lists"

     Execute 

 

 

 

STEP 3

A list is generated

The actual cost splitting realizes the distribution of the actual costs of a cost center to its activity types

The list shows the selected cost centers with the activity types assigned to the cost centers, target cost, control cost, target fixed costs and control fixed costs.

Control costs = costs that are compared with the target costs when the variances are calculated.

In Cost Controlling the control costs are always the actual costs.

  • Control cost can be checked against the actual debits on the involved  cost centers, and this by used activity types
