Enhancements to Costing with Quantity Structure

Description

The following SAP enhancements are available:

COPCP001 with the enhancement component EXIT_SAPLCK21_001

COPCP003 with the enhancement component EXIT_SAPLCK01_001

COPCP004 with the enhancement component EXIT_SAPLKKEX_001

1. Material valuation with cross-company code costing
(COPCP001/EXIT_SAPLCK21_001)

For the valuation of materials that are transferred across company codes, the following options are available:

You are working in the standard system without cross company costing . In this case, a price is used from the material master according to the valuation strategy in the material master record. The material is considered as an externally-procured material.

You activate cross company costing. In this case, the material is recosted using the other company code or transferred using the transfer control.

If you have not activated cross company costing, you can use this enhancement to set alternative prices to valuate a material that is transferred between company codes.

2. Costing production resources/tools (COPCP003/EXIT_SAPLCK01_001)

The costs for production resources/tools are calculated within production overhead using a flat rate. This enhancement can be used to differentiate between the planned costs of the production resources/tools in costing with quantity structure.

You can use this enhancement to specify how production resources/tools are to be costed. The production resources/tools can be displayed in separate cost components in the cost component structure.

3. Costing bulk materials (COPCP004/EXIT_SAPLKKEX_001)

You can cost bulk materials in the standard cost estimate and include them in the cost element itemization.

If the Bulk materials indicator is set in the material master, the relevancy to costing indicator in the BOM is not ready for input. With the enhancement, the relevancy to costing of the material for the standard cost estimate can be determined. The items with the bulk material indicator on item level of the BOM are also considered as relevant to costing.
