3.3 Maintain Characteristics

UseThe characteristics of the Operating Concern represent objects or market segments that can be used as a basis for performing evaluations.

The characteristics also represent reference objects for allocating costs in Profitability Analysis. This enables source-related cost allocation at the level responsible, according to direct costs and contribution margin accounting.

The table below displays the name and meaning of the characteristic, as well as how it is used in a different application and in each company code.

Additional to the below mentioned characteristics, there are fixed characteristics existing in every operating concern. They are used to transfer organizational structures to the profitability analysis (for example,. company code, controlling area, plant, sales organization).

Procedure

1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction Code KEA5

IMG Menu Controlling Profitability Analysis Structures Define Operating Concern Maintain Characteristics

3.4 Maintain Value Fields

UseValue fields are key figures that represent the lines in a report in CO-PA drilldown reporting. The values contained in the fields can be aggregated with reference to the characteristics available or displayed at a lower level.

The Value fields can be differentiated according to the following logic:

By assigning elements from the interface modules (CO-OM, CO-PC, FI, SD) the corresponding values can be allocated to the value fields.

With FI and SD, this transfer takes place synchronously when the values are posted to these modules for the first time, e.g. with a G/L account posting with direct assignment to CO-PA (FI) or a billing document (SD).

Values from Overhead Cost Controlling (CO-OM) are transferred periodically when the costs are transferred to cost centers or orders/projects.

The sales costs are transferred from Product Costing CO-PC as material and production costs. This takes place automatically when sold products are valuated with their product costs or moving average prices.

Procedure

1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction Code KEA6

4.2.2.2 Valuation Strategies

4.2.2.2.1 Define and Assign Valuation Strategy

Use The purpose of this activity is to define valuation strategies and assign them to a point of valuation. The quantities transfered from the invoice are valuated with the costs calculated in the product cost estimate. If a valuation strategy calls for valuation using material costing, the system uses the point of valuation to control which cost estimate is read and how the cost components are assigned to value fields in CO-PA.

The valuation strategy YG1 "BP val. stand. cost estimate" enables the valuation by product cost estimate. This is done for real valuation of actual data from billing, with reference to the value field ABSMG “Sales quantity".

4.2.2.3 Set Up Valuation Using Material Cost Estimate

4.2.2.3.1 Define Access to Standard Cost Estimates

Use Product Cost Planning is used to determine the planned cost of goods manufactured for a product. In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), you can access these material cost estimates to valuate the data in CO-PA. This includes cost estimates both with and without quantity structures.

With this function, you determine which cost estimates from Product Cost Planning should be used to valuate actual or planning data in CO-PA. You do this by defining costing keys. A costing key is a set of access parameters that are used in valuation to determine which data in Product Cost Planning should be read.

Procedure 1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

9 Troubleshooting in CO-PA

9.1 Inconsistencies in Derivation Rules/Creation of Billing Document Not Possible

9.1.1 Installation of SAP Note 446279

Use This sections describes how to use SAP Note 446279 to fix inconsistencies in the derivation rules in CO-PA.

They might occur in case of client copies, installation of different operating concerns via BC Set with different derivation rules.

Please use the report RKEDRCHECK described in this section to check whether you have inconsistencies in your operating concern.

Procedure1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction SA38

User Menu System Services Reporting

© SAP AG Page 52 of 53

SAP Best Practices Profitability Analysis: Configuration Guide

2. On the ABAP Execute Program screen fill in the program name RKEDRCHECK and choose Execute (F8).

3. On the Characteristic Derivation: Check table screen, the following two options are offered to the user:

Description

1. Check in all clients

2. Delete inconsistent steps

4. Choose Check in all clients and then choose Execute to see whether you have inconsistencies in your system.

5. Choose Back.

6. In case you had inconsistencies, select Delete inconsistent steps and choose Execute.

7. Save your entries and choose Back.

ResultThe inconsistencies in the derivation tables have been removed. If your problem is not solved, proceed with the next section.

9.1.2 Regeneration of Derivation Rules

Use Sometimes it can occur that derivation rules are inconsistent and that inconsistencies are not removed by processing SAP Note 446279. In this case, you can try to solve the problem by regenerating derivation rules.

Procedure1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction KEDR

IMG Menu Controlling Profitability Analysis Master Data Define Characteristic Derivation

2. On the Characteristic Derivation: Display Strategy screen, choose menu path Extras Regenerate. Confirm when the dialog box appears.

ResultThe derivation rules have been regenerated.

9.1.3 Manual Removal of Inconsistencies in the Derivation Rules

Use If neither processing SAP Note 446279 nor regenerating derivation rules resolves your problem, derivation rules must be edited manually.

© SAP AG Page 53 of 53

SAP Best Practices Profitability Analysis: Configuration Guide

Procedure1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction KEDR

IMG Menu Controlling Profitability Analysis Master Data Define Characteristic Derivation

2. On the Characteristic Derivation: Display Strategy screen, choose Display all Steps.

3. Mark first step of type Table lookup and choose Details. The step is likely to be inconsistent when on Characteristic Derivation Display Table Lookup screen on tab Definition in area Source Fields for Table Lookup in column Origin there is more than one different table mentioned.

4. If this is the case, try to understand by logical means what the step is supposed to do. In particular, memorize or write down table and field names used. Try to figure out which of the tables mentioned (see step 3) makes sense considering the characteristic to be derived. (For example, if the sales office is to be derived, table MARA (Material Master) makes no sense as the origin table, as the sales office derives from customer related and not from material related data).

5. Choose Back.

6. On the Characteristic Derivation: Display Strategy screen, choose Change. Select the step examined earlier if inconsistent and choose Delete Step.

7. Create corrected step based on your findings of step 4. To do so, refer to Define Characteristic Derivation section.

8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 for all steps of category Table Lookup.

ResultThe inconsistencies in the derivation rules have been removed. If you worked carefully, you should have derivation settings equivalent to what they had supposed to be before.

9.2 General Troubleshooting – Regenerating the Operating Concern

Use Regenerating the operating concern is a useful instrument in all kinds of troublesome situations in profitability analysis. While regenerating the operating concern, the system automatically provides for data consistency, which makes it possible to use this instrument of trouble shooting even after transaction data has been created.

Procedure1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction KEA0

IMG Menu Controlling -> Profitability Analysis -> Master Data -> Define Characteristic Derivation

2. On the Maintain Operating Concern screen, in the Data Structure tab, choose Display Change and confirm the message regarding cross-client-settings.

3. In area Data structure, choose Change.

4. On the Edit Data Structure: Characteristics screen, choose Extras Characteristics Unlock and confirm when the dialog box appears.
