Co-Products

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have following problem:

I've created a BOM for Material A.The components are Materials B, C, W, X, Y and Z.

Materials W, X Y and Z are co-products (negative positions in the BOM).

I would like to know how I can define rules to split the costs between the Co-products.

For example, I'd like to define, that Material A gets 60 % from the production costs, Material W 20 %, Material X 10 % and Material Y and Z 5 % each.

I guess, for materials W, X, Y and Z I've to set the Flag Co-product in Material master. But how can I define the costs split ?

thanks in advance for any help

Hi

In Material master in costing 1 view you can click 'Joint prod' button and then click on Equivalance numbers'. Here you can define which material code should get what ratio of cost.

Hi Rajneesh,

is this to be done On header Material (A) or only for each Co-product (W X Y Z) ?

Thank you

Hi

You should define for all co-products

Hi Kamal,

thank you for your answer, but something isn't clear for me:

If Product A is the main product (BOM Header), and components W, X, Y and Z. co-products, if I'm right, the Co-product flag has to be set in the BOM from Material A on Components W, X, Y and Z. The Co-product flag has also to be set on Material master in costing 1 view for Material A, W, X, Y and Z.

Additionaly what about the Equivalance numbers ? If I understood it correctly, the Equivalance has only to be done on Material Master from Product A in which I have to enter Component W, X, Y and Z for respectively W 20 %,  X 10 % and Material Y and Z 5 % each..

Equivalance has not to be set on Material Master for Components W, X, Y and Z.

Is this right ?

thanks in advance for your help

Hi

Yes you are right...first you should mention that these products are co-prod ..and the through equivalnce number (ratio) you will distribute the cost among all prods...at header material..your understanding is absolutely right.

Hi

Your understanding is correct.

Hi Kamal,

I'll try that in this week. But one more question: It is possible to define a ratio for all co-product, but is it possible for one of the co-products to define a fix price pro CU and for the others a ratio ?

Thank you

kind regards
