Please refer threads below.

Dear,

See the reply from SAP

Thank you for contacting SAP Active Global Support.

Unfortunately the process repetitive manufacturing with product cost collectors does not support co-production

(see also chapter Cost Object Controlling -> Product Cost By Period ->

Special Requirements in Joint Production).

Therefore the settlement rule won't reflect the apportionment structure to co-products

Therefore any apportionment structure is not taken into account in actual and the cost collectors do not reflect co-products in the settlement rule either.

Hello All Again,

Thanks for all the replies.

But the opinion amoung the consultant is not same. Few answers are guess work.

What is it really missing? If you see the product cost collector, the settlement rule is 100 percent to main material without co-product configuration.

Harriesh, did you implement the scenario or simulated or prototyped.

Hope we consolidate the real answer for this.

Any more inputs will be really appreicated and I'm looking forward for a valuable input.

Thanks

We wrote to SAP..they told this function is not available.

Technical reason is cannot distribute the cost...

Hi,

It is possible. You can use it same as in descrete mfg.

For joint production( means main product with co product) maintain same BOM in -ve qty. In costing view of main product and co product maintain co-product tick and maintain average cost in joint production for all yours co-products.

This will fulfill the co- product senario. Please let me know if I m wrong.

Thanks and Regards,

Harriesh Gunjatay.

No..this function is not available in REM i.e. REM with co-products.

Repetitive manufacturing with product cost collectors does not support co-production.
