Actual cost issue (n/w costing)

[Makal]

Dear experts,

please help me.

I'm using network costing in my project. I'm assigning work centers to activities (I'm using work center only to capture the actual cost). All workcenters have activity type assigned & a rate for each activity type is also defined. I'm using activity elements, where ever more detailed cost capture is required for a particular activity.

Say for example I have an Activity "XYZ" & I have assigned activity elements "abc1" , "abc2", "abc3" to the activity "XYZ". I'm confirming activity "XYZ" & activity elements "abc1" , "abc2", "abc3" by entering actual hours.

I click on activity/ activity element & press CTRLF10 (to calculate plan/actual cost) & then CTRLF11 (to display plan/ actual cost).

I can see all the planned values perfectly. I'm facing problem when it comes to actuals. I can see correct actual values for some of the activity elements/ activities. For some activities/ activity element system shows actual cost as zero. Why is it behaving like this? Any clues?

Thanks

Check control keys for activity/activity elements. Check whether "cost" option is selected in the control key. T code OPSU.

Thanks for reply Hemant.

Cost option is already set. I have already checked it before posting my query on the forum.

Solved it myself.

Dear Nitin

You are right.

In my case, Accidentally there was a mismatch in unit of measure in activity type & project activity. I just corrected it.

Thanks to all.
