How to create costing estimate

[Former Member]

Hello Everyone,

I want to know how to create costing estimate?

I select the line item in Sales Order --> Extras --> Costing, I see that some costing estimate is maintained there.

How do we maintain it?

Can anybody help here?

Thanks!

Can you check whether the link is helpful or not? Normally SD folks does not create cost estimate, it is done by FI/CO and the value is passed to SD pricing.

Hello Shiva Ram,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

When I am creating a delivery for the Sales order, it is giving me the error "

"Create delivery" not allowed (Sys. status Cost, object VB0004233021000030)"

When I check for the successful order, then I see that the cost estimate is created there.

Can this be a reason and maintaining cost will help in creating delivery?

Thanks!

Hello Anuja,

Are you facing error message KI880 during delivery creation ?

If yes, please check whether you have maintained the consumption field(VBAP-KZVBR) in the account assignment in OVZG transaction for the requirement class. It must be maintained to avoid the error KI880.

I hope this will help you. Please lemme know the outcome.

Hi

From your message it shows that you are in MTO (make to order) scenario.

Here you need to take sales order costing

One way is :-

Use Transaction code VA02 give the order and press enter. In the open sales order screen from the menu Extras -> Choose option Costing -> Give the costing variant (it may be default as PPC4 but it is separately develop in your case then choose that one) Press enter it will take the cost run. once the cost run is appear without error mark the cost estimate. save the order.

After then it will allow you to make the delivery

Second way is

Use Transaction code CK51N give the sales order and item and press enter with input as respective costing variant . Once you press enter the sales order costing process will start. after checking the costing run in case if the costing rus is error free mark the said costing run and save it.

After then it will allow you to make the delivery

Try the same. hope it will resolve your issue.

Thanks & Regards
