Hi,
Can anyone point me in the direction of some CDS views for reporting on product costing - particularly around the way in which standard costs / cost estimates roll up by cost component.
I know that the functionality available here is fairly thin (and reminds me a lot of old R/3 v3.1h days) - so suspect on this basis, it probably isn't that widely used? If anyone can help here, would be really grateful, as looking to get some better reporting out, as all the standard stuff seems to be very much one material at a time, which isn't that useful in practice.
Thanks in advance!
Clare
Hi Claire,
As you already mentioned the solution still very thin. There is only one CDS view categorized as an analytical cube view and it is the I_CostComponentAssignment, you only have few dimensions here like the cost component structure, origin group, and cost elements, all the rest is dimensions here and there. I don't know if this will help you that much! roland.dittus any other idea here?
KR,
Nadja

Hi Clare,
Information such as Price Control/Price Determination; special stock types; price units will be stored in ACDOCA; however, all information regarding Material Values and quantities that were previously stored in a large number of tables are basically stored in 2 new tables MLDOC that is recording what is coming in and what is coming out e.g. production orders consuming stock.... meaning that this table is the basis for actual costing. The other major new table is the MLDOCCCS that is for cost component splitting. I have attached a slide with the S4 overview tables architecture, needs to be in presentation mode so that you can see the animation.
I hope it helps a bit more on the topic

i would say the standard cost solution provided as scope item BEG is pretty robust and a best practice; There are many many reports already available to evaluate cost by cost component, Maybe Claire can elaborate a bit what she is trying to report on, and we probably already have an existing report available.

At the simplest level, I am after reports like a breakdown for a multiple selection of products (for example all finished products in a plant) giving a breakdown of total standard, and then a column per cost component. Can't see an easy way to do this as most of the reports seem to be more single material oriented - and those which can give data for multiple materials don't seem to give the cost component view.
Hoping that I am just missing something obvious...
