Overhead calculation refers to the allocation of overhead from cost centers to manufacturing orders or product cost collectors.

15

Overhead

In previous chapters we created master data, configuration, and standard cost estimates, and carried out preliminary and simultaneous costing. We’re now ready to carry out period-end processing, which includes the following processing steps: 왘

Overhead

왘

Work in process

왘

Variance calculation

왘

Settlement

Although other more advanced and specialized transactions are possible during period-end processing, the four explained in this and the following chapters are the most common. If you use other period-end processes, you can apply the principles you learn in this section to those processes. We’ll look first at overhead configuration and then at the period-end process.

15.1

Configuration

During a fiscal period, primary (external) costs, such as payroll and electricity are debited to cost centers. Some of these costs may be included as part of the planned activity rate and allocated to products from production cost centers during activity confirmations, as discussed in Chapter 14.

Overhead

Refer to Chapter 6 for more information on costing sheets

Another method to allocate overhead costs to products is period-end overhead calculation. Overhead calculation offers flexible allocation across products through costing sheet configuration, as discussed in Chapter 6. Allocating overhead with costing sheets requires an additional period-end activity, although this is a straightforward procedure.

15.2

Overhead Period-End Processing

You run period-end overhead calculation with Transactions CO42 (individual) and CO43 (collective) or by following the menu path Accounting Controlling Product Cost Controlling Cost Object Controlling Product Cost by Period Period-End Closing Single Functions: Product Cost Collector Overhead. A selection screen is displayed, as shown in Figure 15.1. Note You can carry out overhead calculation for production and process orders with Transactions KGI2 (individual) and CO43 (collective).

Figure 15.1 Actual Overhead Calculation Selection Screen

392


Overhead Period-End Processing

In this example we’ll calculate overhead only for product cost collectors by selecting the With Product Cost Collectors checkbox. You can also select other objects depending on period-end processing time and the number of messages that require analysis following overhead calculation. Select the Dialog display checkbox if you require more detailed information when analyzing the overhead calculation and messages. You normally only need this level of detail when initially calculating overhead following system implementation. It is most useful when analyzing overhead calculation for a single production order or product cost collector. Complete the selection screen and click the execute icon to display the screen shown in Figure 15.2.

Figure 15.2 Actual Overhead Calculation Basic List

This screen provides basic information on the parameters entered in the previous selection screen such as period and fiscal year. Click the rightpointing arrow icon to proceed to a detailed overhead list (if you selected the Detail Lists checkbox in Figure 15.1) as shown in Figure 15.3. Let’s review each column: 왘

The Senders column shows the cost center credited.

왘

The Receivers column shows the product cost collector or manufacturing order debited.

393

15.2


15

Overhead

왘

The Debit cost column shows the secondary cost element identifying the type of overhead cost. These cost elements appear on cost center and product cost collector reports.

왘

The ValueCOCur column shows the overhead value allocated in controlling area currency. By selecting Settings Layout Current form the menu bar you can display additional columns, such as overhead value in object (company code) currency.

Figure 15.3 Actual Overhead Calculation Details

This concludes the overhead chapter, so let’s review what we’ve covered.

15.3

Summary

In this chapter we calculated and allocated actual overhead. The next period-end processing step we’ll examine, in Chapter 16, is to calculate work in process.
