KE27 is used to revaluate the posted data in COPA.

Suppose you use costing variant PPC1 to calculate std cost at the start of the year… Your COGS is based on PPC1

however, at every month end you also calculate revised std cost using ZPC1 and store it in a different field in material master… You would also like to have COGS based on ZPC1 for informatory purposes….

In this case, you use KE27… When you execute KE27 transaction, you can choose which value fields you would like to revaluate….

Settings needed for the same can be simply said as – Whatever settings you have done for Point of Valuation (PV) 01 in COPA IMG, the same needs to be copied for PV = 03…. i.e.

1. Create a new valuation strategy by copying 001 and assign it to PV 03
2. In KE4J or KEPC – Assign your costing keys to PV = 03.. Copy the existing PV=01 entries and change PV=03
3. In KE4R – Assign Value fields to PV = 03.. i.e. copy the existing entries and change PV = 01 to PV = 03… Here, it is recommended that you use separate value fields for Cost Comp Split than your existing value fields.. Else, you wont be able to compare the new COGS value with original value…
4. The revaluated amount is posted with a different indicator… i dont recollect if this is a separate record type or what… You can check this when you post revaluation..

Company is a client to whom we are going to implement SAP system. It represents a corporate group. It is the highest organizational unit in the enterprise structure.

?

However the definition of Company Code is:

Company code is an independent organization unit that represents subsidiary of company. Company code is the smallest organizational unit for which a complete self-contained set of accounts can be drawn up for purposes of external reporting. It has his own set of database tables from which we can drawn out reports, for?example,?Balance sheets Profit and Loss accounts that are required by law and those reports can be consolidated at company code level.

?

The following is the relationship between company and company code:

One company can have many company codes. It means one company code should be assigned to only one company. So the relationship between company and company code is one to many. It means company code should be assigned to company.

We cannot enter number with decimals in field Fxd. consumption

• Field name: MEF
• Data element: MEFXXX

When we enter number with decimals like 12,45 it gets rounded in 13.

I have tried to change number format of this collumn from Not defined to 0,00 but this is not helping. The rounding still takes place.

“My question is where can I assign the unit (of measurement) for posting of quantities.”

The solution is

The UOM is assosiated with Activity Type, and has a certain number of decimal points in the definition of UOM. The other place to influence decimal points in the proper planning layout (column settings). – Paulo Vitoriano

This only happens when I use S/L indicators. My component version is SAP ECC 6.0

?

The solution is:

?

When you post a SAP document with a special G/L indicator, it is possible to update the payment method, payment block and cash discount fields if you select the payment method in the automatic payment configuration.

?

Transaction FBZP > All company codes

“Vendors -> Special G/L transaction to be paid” – Specify the special GL indicator
or
“Customers -> Special G/L transaction to be paid” – Specify the special GL indicator

However, SAP doesn’t allow you to change ZTERM ( payment term) and this is a standard functionality across all releases. Check SAP OSS note 9344.

Does anyone know of a report that gives this info? I know I can get it from BKPF but our users don’t have access to SE16 transaction.

?

The solutions are:

You can append additional field to FBL3N via customizing step OBVU transaction.

After these actions, you can select transaction code field in FBL*N reports. – Burak
