In this section you can create a valuation variant for the valuation of work in process and unplanned scrap (scrap variances) at target costs. You define how the system calculates the target costs for the valuation of work in process and how it calculates the target costs for the valuation of scrap.

The target costs can be calculated as follows:

If you always want to valuate the work in process and scrap at the target costs calculated on the basis of a standard cost estimate, do not create a valuation variant for work in process and scrap.

Example

Requirements

Make sure that the cost estimate used as a basis for calculating the target costs fulfills the following requirements:

  • The cost estimate has been created and released
  • The results of the cost estimate are updated as an itemization

    The itemization for the preliminary costing for manufacturing orders is generated dynamically when the work in process or variances are calculated. Note that this may have adverse effects on performance.

  • The cost estimate is valid at the time the variances are calculated

To be able to calculate work in process at target costs, the order must have the settlement type PER (Periodic). That is, the default values for the order type must be as follows:

  • For product cost collectors the default rule must be STR
  • For manufacturing orders the default rule must be PP2

You must also have carried out the following steps:

Standard settings

Recommendation

The valuation of the work in process and scrap at target costs most closely approximates your true costs. If the quantity structure of the production order and process order is changed, or if the routing for the production version is changed, the affected orders can be recosted. Future confirmations and the confirmations that have already been made in the current period are valuated on the basis of this new cost estimate.

Activities

  1. Decide whether you want to valuate the work in process and the scrap at target costs that are not calculated on the basis of a standard cost estimate.
  2. If appropriate, define a valuation variant for work in process and scrap (target costs).
  3. If you want to valuate the work in process in accordance with the valuation variant, assign the valuation variant for work in process and scrap to a results analysis version.

  4. If you want to valuate the scrap in accordance with the valuation variant, enter the valuation variant for work in process and scrap in target cost version 0 in the field Valuation variant for scrap.

Further notes

In repetitive manufacturing, if you want to valuate the work in process and scrap on the basis of a preliminary cost estimate for the product cost collector, you should make sure that the confirmations that affect simultaneous costing are made on the basis of a preliminary cost estimate for the product cost collector. This means that when you confirm, the system gives you default activity quantities on which the preliminary cost estimate for the product cost collector are based.
