Here you can assign the components of a cost component structure from Product Cost Controlling to the value fields of your operating concern. Note that you need to maintain separate value field assignments for each point of valuation in Profitability Analysis (CO-PA).

You can divide the cost components into fixed and variable parts before transferring them to CO-PA.

For each cost estimate, you can transfer any number of cost components to the same value field (n:1 relationship). The values from these cost components are then added together in the value field.

If you valuate using multiple material cost estimates simultaneously, this means that the values of different cost components within the same cost estimate are aggregated and then entered in one CO-PA value field. However, value fields that already contain data from a previous cost estimate are not overwritten by a later cost estimate. Consequently, you should assign value fields in Customizing so that the values of different cost estimates are entered in different sets of value fields.

You can assign up to six different value fields from your operating concern to each cost component in the cost component structure. These assignments is indicated by the value fields entered in the columns Field name 1 through Field name 6.

Different value field assignments are important whenever you want to use multiple valuation approaches with different cost estimates. Six is the maximum number of cost estimates that you can transfer simultaneously from Product Cost Controlling to Profitability Analysis.

You can assign up to three costing keys in parallel to a product or material type.

Using the flexible assignment function, you can define your own assignment tables and assign up to six costing keys for parallel valuation.

In valuation, the system first determines which costing keys to use. Then it finds the correct cost estimate in Product Cost Controlling based on the read parameters stored in those costing keys.

Once it has found a cost estimate, it transfers the values of the cost components contained there to CO-PA value fields based on the cost component layout for that cost estimate and on the costing key's position in the aforementioned assignment tables. For example, for the costing key entered in the first column in the assignment table, the system transfers the cost components to the value fields entered in the first value field column (the column with the name Field name 1). The same then happens for the costing keys in the second and third columns and in the fourth through sixth columns (if you use the flexible assignment function).

Example

For a costing key assigned to a product or material type in the column Costing key 1, the cost components of the relevnat cost component structure are assigned to the value fields entered in this transaction in the column Field name 1.

Product "MAT01" is assigned the costing keys "I01" and "I02" for record type "F" and point of valuation "01":

 PV   Rec.T. Product    Valid to     Cstg 1    Cstg 2   Cstg 3
 01   F      MAT01      12/31/1999   I01       I02

The value of the raw materials in the cost estimate found using costing key "I01" is supposed to be transferred to the CO-PA value field "VV001". Meanwhile, the raw material costs found using costing key "I02" are to be transferred to the value field "I02". In both cases the fixed and variable costs are to be added together and transferred as one sum.

If we say that "001" is the cost component for raw material costs in the relevant cost component layout, we have the following assignment:

 PV   CCmp  Name        F/V   Field name 1  Field name 2  Field name 3
 01   001   Raw mat.    3     VV001         VV002

Activities

Assign the components of the cost component structure to the value fields in your operating concern. Remember the you may need to maintain entries in this table for more than one point of valuation.

Note

For detailed information on cost component structures, see Customizing for Product Cost Controlling under "Basic Settings -> Define cost components".

To get to the screen "Assignment: Organizational Units to Cost Component Structure", choose the icon "Next page" from the screen "Define cost components".

Further notes

In order to valuate CO-PA line items using material cost estimates in Product Cost Planning, you must define your valuation strategy so that the system accesses product costing for the desired point of valuation.

If you are valuating using more than one costing key, note that a value field can only be filled by valuation if it is empty. In other words, each value field can only be filled once, and is never overwritten.

The system follows certain rules for determining which costing keys to use:

  1. First it checks whether one or more costing keys has been assigned to the product being valuated. If so, it valuates the data using only those costing keys.
  2. If no costing key is assigned to the product, the system checks whether any costing keys have been assigned to the material type of the product. If so, the data is valuated only using those costing keys.
  3. If no costing keys have been assigned to the material type, the system then checks whether any costing keys have been assigned to other characteristics using the flexible assignment function. If no costing keys are found in this manner, the transaction cannot be valuated using a material cost estimate.
    Likewise, no valuation is carried out if an entry exists in one of these assignment tables but does not contain a costing key.
