co product cost estimate

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

Is it possible to create the cost estimate(ck11n) of a co product seperately..

Joseph,

No. During cost estimate for Main Co-Product, system should cost the other Co-products also to arrive at the Cost for all the products.

The co-product would have in its BOM- the other Products also, so during cost estimate it would do the costing for the remaining products also.

Joseph,

Is it a Bi-Product or Co-product?

Does the semi-finished and Co-Product materials activated with Co-Product Indicator? Do they have also Joint Production section updated in with Equivalance numbers?

Joseph,

No. when you are running cost estimate for Main Product, system would also calculate and perform the cost estimate for the co-product also.

If you want to use a fixed cost for the co-product then you can directly enter the standard price and also activate the Fixed price Indicator in the costing 1 view. Now when you run the cost estimate for main proudct the cost of the co-product is picked up based on the standard price maintained and not based on the co-product costing based on equivalance number and the quantity structure.

Hope this clarifies,

Prasobh,

I am getting every thing fine for the particular semifinished product....I would like to know whether i can create a material cost estimate for co product or wats the reason y i cant make a cost estimate for a co product...when iam trying to make one pop up window appears telling that thrs no valid production version for this material

Joseph,

Does this CO-product has a BOM & Production version on its own? I dont think so, thats the reason you are getting this message. Whereas when you are doing cost estimate for the Semifinished material, system would do the costing of the co-product also.

I dont understand why you want to do the cost estimate for the Co-product, when this happens automatically when you do for semifinished material.

Co-Product can be costed in two ways

1. Fixed cost co-product

2. costing using apportionment structure

You can also run MRP at co-product level also,provided that

1. In main co-product you must define apportionment structure/source structure

2. Main co-product BOM must contains that material with negative qty and co-product indicator
