General presentation

Objective of the application

Manufacturing VC query (QV_BW_QRY_CPCOPC04_0001) is one of the components to calculate the FL-ICM (Forward-Looking Integrated Contribution Margin).

The Variable Cost (VC) of a product is the sum of Raw Materials + Packaging + Tolling + Utilities costs.

We bring the detailed costs from SAP from the BOM (Bill of Material).

The BOM brings, for a given Finished Product/Plant/Month, the detailed list of components (raw material/activity type) with the corresponding quantities and costs.

In the query, we calculate the FL Variable Cost for projected months, using the forecasted prices for Raw Material and Energy (input by the users in BI-IP workbooks) and multiply them by the quantities from the BOM. If no forecast is found, then we extrapolate last Actual price to the future months.

Dataflow overview

Manufacturing Cost is available in Composite Provider CPCOPC04

BOM data flow

BOM is loaded from WP1 and PF1 in different data flows.

There are 2 different BOM queries (not used directly in Pricing dashboard)

• QV_BW_QRY_CPCOBOM1_0001 - for WP1 GBUs 
• QV_BW_QRY_CPCOBOM2_0001 - for PF1 GBUs 

You can find the dimensions of each query here:

BOM data from both ERPs is then harmonized in CV_FMCO_BOM to be used in Manuf. Cost

Regarding Forecast, data comes from the following ADSOs:

• ABCOPC01 - FL - Raw Mat - Planification
• ABCOPC10 - FL - Energy - Planification

Rules & Explanations

Novecare (in WP1) works with Standard Cost.

So beginning of month M, we have the cost for month M.

Specialty Polymers (in PF1) works with Actual Cost.

So beginning of month M, we have the cost for month M-1 (last closed month).

In order to have a common view, for a unique Running Period, this is the way we generate data in Manufacturing Cost query.

Note that for Novecare (WP1), there is a month lag in the Forecast price for the projected months.

We can only filter a single period to read BOM data, so in each CV, Run Period is calculated differently:

CV_FMCO_MAN_COST_RCS (WP1)

RUNPER is equal to FISCPER used to extract BOM

CV_FMCO_MAN_COST (PF1)

RUNPER = FISCPER from DTP +1

For example: to generate RUNPER 03/2022

DTP from WP1 with  FISCPER = 03/2022 (to extract BOM data from 03/2022)

CV will generate RUNPER 03/2022.

DTP from PF1 with FISCPER = 02/2022 (to extract BOM data from 02/2022)

CV will generate RUNPER 03/2022.
