Dear Experts,
I have a basic understanding that to calculate Material cost estimate data from MM and PP is required.From MM we will get material component data thu BOM and from PP we will get data for activity performed during production thru routing.
Now data from BOM is available but activities are not defined in the system. One plant is equal to 1 work center and all overheads are booked at company code level thru jv irrespective of the nature i.e direct or indirect overheads.No overhead cost is booked against process order currently.
I have to implement Product costing and below are the difficulties I`m facing:
1. Which overheads are normally booked against:
- process orders
- at company code level against production/service cost centers.
2. The production process of FG`s is muti stage but only 1 work center is created for 1 plant. In 1 process cycle at different stages different fg`s are produced. Is the approach of work center is correct or i have to change it.
3. I need to define cost center, what is the basic funda to consider what should be the cost center.
4. To create cost component structure what should be the things to consider.
Looking forward for quick suggestions.....
Regards
