Hi Experts,
We have process in which we do not have material. only Labour hours and Machine Hours. So we posted KP26 data to get the Labour and Machine hour cost.
Now today client want overheads like Repairs and Maintenance, Depriciation and Employee cost also for this process to be captured. As we do not have any material it is not possible for us to capture the above overheads.
Is it any other way to capture this overheads. Please give your expert inputs.
Regards
Zunaid.
Hi Zunaid,
You have to create costing sheet. Here you have to maintain the repairs and maintenance expenses as Base and assign the cost elements for the same. After define percentage on the base in the overhead and define credit for which cost centre you have to credit these overheads. Later you have to assign this costing sheet in the costing variant.

Hi Mukhtar,
i have a doubt. If i maintain R&M GL as base and calculate some percentage of overhead, then i have to give creadit to cost centre and secondary cost element. but here i can give only one cost centre. My plant have multiples cost centres. how do we achieve this.
Please guide.

Hi Mukhtar,
Understood. i can create as many credits as i want. But one more doubt. We do mfbf for material. In material we have internal order. So all posting goes to internal order. than variance calculation and settlement of internal order.
Now above credit goes to Cost centre + cost element combination. Than how will this reflect in material. what is the use of Cost centre then if everything is going to internal order. Credits will be not displayed in material as it is in cost centre.
Please guide.

Hi Mukthar,
One last doubt. we have received below rates from client.
Auxiliary Power (qty in mus) 0.03
Direct Employees cost 0.02
Repairs and Maintenance 0.01
My question is if we maintain this rates in KP26, is that fine. as we do not have GLs for overhead calculation. Please guide.

Zunaid
Hi Zunaid,
If you are using activity types for overhead calculation then these rates should maintain in respective activity types in KP26. If you are directly assigning expenses GL accounts as base in the costing sheet, then you could define above percentages as overhead rates in the sheet. But for power you have received qty. For that you have to create activity type in KL01 and maintain price for the activity/cost centre in KP26. Then after define routing for the order and here you have to maintain operating time and when you do confirmation these would charge to order.

Hi
Right way of doing is what already has been suggested by fellows.
You can also define them as activity. Give the rates in kp 26. While confining the orders these will also be confirmed.

Hi Rajneesh,
you mean to day for R&M, Depreciation and Employee cost i create Activity type. Then maintain rate in KP26. after that in mfbf that rates are posted and are captured in order. after settlement it will have FI entry. Correct? .
because they do not have percentage of above overheads. so even if i maintain them in costing sheet, calculation is not possible in absence of overhead rates.
Please guide.

Hi
Generally these type of cost as OH absorbed through Costing sheet if you find some logical base but in absence of that Indirect activity allocation can be applied to flow the cost where Sec CE for Indirect allocation will help to identify the type of OH cost.
