Hi Gurus
We use service orders (plant maintenance orders) and we use one activity type Labor and we maintain KP26 rate.
We use IW41 to book labor to service order.
We also another activity type OVHD
We also want system to automatically confirm activity type OVHD automatically along with
Activity type labor.
So just want to confirm the plan hours of labor say 1 hour and automatically whether background
Or any mode system should confirm OVHD .
Is that possible.

Hello Revathi
It's possible. I did the same for Production order
Two options
1. Template allocation using CPTD. You can search forum. You will find a document by Arturo Senosain
2. Use a user exit during confirmation. I used Badi WORKORDER_UPDATE for production order. Ask your Abap to find a suitable badi or exit for the same

Hi Ajay
Thank you very much for your ref.
In Production Order scenario, is the auto confirmation of overheads possible with standard functionality without enhancements?
In Service Order scenario it is not possible to do auto confirmation of overheads along with labor without enhancements? Pl let me know
Revathi.
Ajay
Thanks for your quick response.
Alternative 2 is clear to me, that once the activity labor is confirmed to service order during the month, if I run the template allocation at the month end, the overhead activity will be confirmed to the quantities of labor confirmed during the month.
This one I need to check with my finance user team whether they are ready for the new month end activity.
Regarding alternative 1 you mentioned above
"
1. Whatever you confirm as labor hrs, to be automatically confirmed as overhead hours too'
This alternative 1 is achievable only through User Exit and not as part of standard. Pl correct me if I am wrong because I have come to the conclusion that through standard confirmation it is not possible to confirm two activity types together.
Thanks
Revathi.
Hi Revathi,
You can achieve this without development.
Follow these steps.
1. Create a Z* parameter in OP17 for overheads
2. Create a Z* formula in OP21, Like this SAP_03+(Z*formula*SAP_09/SAP_08)
3. Create an activity type KL01
4. Enter plan rate KP26
5. Create a work center and in costing tab where you enter labor activity with SAP007 for labor and next activity ,overhead enter with Z*formula and check “Reference” check box on left side.
Step 1, 2 and 5 is PP process, so take help from PP consultant.
You may have to tweak formula based on your requirement. but it definitely works without development and we are using this for years for PP overheads.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Rau

Thanks for your response.
Actually I showed your response to my PP consultant and he went through but he could not
actually accomplish this for automatic confirmation of 'OVHD' for activity type, he said this would definitely possible for Production Orders, but not service orders. He followed what you wrote, still
the routing I think he could not enter more than one activity.
I am not sure if I can ask you, do you have any more detailed steps or screen shots the same solution applied to service order scenarios?
That would greatly helpful if you can send some,

Hi Revathi, I think you need to achieve the overhead cost through the costing sheet not by an additional activity. There should be some base for overhead calculation.
Thanks,
