SAP Note 328156 - Lot size variance with periodic production

Component : Product Cost by Period -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/328156 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The SAP system fails to determine lot size variances for unsupported production orders, process orders, or product cost collectors during variance calculation. Key terms include KKS1, KKS2, KKS5, KKS6, KKP5, KKPT. Periodic controlling with a PER settlement rule impacts variance recognition. The resolution involves recalculating lot-size-independent target costs every period, using a formula: lot-size-independent comparison costs * (1 - base quantity/comparison quantity), where the comparison costs equal target costs. Variance reduction occurs as cumulative base quantity surpasses the current value, recalculating the variance using an adjusted formula.

Key words :
lot-size-independent comparison costs, lot-size-independent target costs, comparison costs = target costs, comparison quantity = target credit, determine lot size variances, potential lot size variances, cost object hierarchy kks1, 1 - base quantity/comparison quantity, cumulative base quantity exceeds, 0 - base quantity/comparison quantity
