1 Business Process Introduction and
Overall Business requirements
1.1 Business Process Overview

FACT has two manufacturing divisions namely Udyogamandal complex


and Cochin division. The Udyogamandal complex consists of the
Udyogamandal Plant and the Petrochemical Plant.
Annual targets for the End Products and period of Annual Turn Around
(ATA) are decided by the corporate management, based on the past
performance of the company.
This is forwarded to the Divisional Production planning departments for
preparing the divisional production plans. The finished products targets
fixed in the corporate annual production plan are taken as an input and
detailed month wise divisional production plans are prepared for
finished products, co- products , raw materials , fuel and major
utilities. Approval for this month wise divisional production plan is
prepared by the Chief Engineer(Corporate Planning)/Director(Technical).
The divisional production plans are compiled and the corporate
planning department prepares a corporate production plan. A brief
Description of the plant and input materials are as follows.

1.1.1 Udyogamandal Complex

Udyogamandal Division is the parent division of FACT and it produces


FACTAMFOS and Ammonium sulphate. It caters the intermediary requirements of
other divisions also. It supplies Ammonia, Synthesis gas, Sulphur Di Oxide,
Oleum and Carbon dioxide for the production of Caprolactam. It also supplies
Ammonia and Sulphuric Acid to cochin division.

1.2 Business Drivers


RAW MATERIALS \ STORES AND SPARES

Present process : Presently the Raw material is valued for the purpose of closing
stock and consumption on the basis of moving monthly average.

CO - Standard Costing/Actual Costing SAP Customer Confidential


6
Proposed process : As per SAP, the Raw material is valued for the purpose of closing
stock and consumption on the basis of Moving average Price (MAP) which is changing
in consequence to usage and entry of invoices. It is calculated by dividing the value of
material by the quantity in stock. Automatically recalculated based on activity.

FINISHED \ INTERMEDIARY (SEMI FINISHED)

Present process :

Presently the Intermediary (Semi Finished) products are valued at average cost up
to the period of the year or for the year. (for eg. The price as on 30th June will be
the average of the actual production costs for the months of April, May and June.)

Finished products are valued either at average cost up to the period of the year \
for the year or market price whichever is less.

Proposed process : As per SAP all Semi Finished and Finished Goods will valued
based on the actual cost for the month.

(Please refer the details in 2.1 Key Design Decision and 2.3 Material Ledger.)
1.3 Business Process Description
Product Cost Planning (CO-PC-PCP):

Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure


Purpose:
The material cost estimate with quantity structure is prepared on basis of data provided
by Production Planning module. The cost estimate is a tool for planning non order-
related costs and establishing prices for materials. It is used to calculate the cost of
goods manufactured and cost of goods sold for each product unit.

Prerequisite:
Quantity structure for the material was prepared by PP:
Bill Of Material
Routing

Cost Estimate without Quantity Structure

Purpose:
The cost estimate without quantity structure is a tool for planning costs and establishing
prices for materials without reference to quantity structure data from Production
Planning (PP and PP-PI). It is intended for materials with insufficient or no quantity
structure data produced in plants not covered by implementation of Production Planning
module.

Prerequisites:
Material master data with Costing and Accounting Views were created and planning
process for Cost centers / Activity types was proceeded. Valid Cost Estimate without
Quantity Structure should have not been created and saved.

2 Business Process in SAP
2.1 Key Design Decisions
Product in SAP Can be valuated at Standard price or Moving average price.

In FACT, finished and Semi finished product will be valuated in standard Price, By
products at Fixed Standard price.

Requirements/ Expectations :

As and when goods are received from production order the same
should be Valuated as per the criteria decided
Quantitative and value information of all Finished product should be
available.
It should be possible to make Target vs. Actual Comparison in terms of
quantity.
Should be able to calculate Standard Price based on per unit price for
raw material decided at the time of Annual Plan.
Should be able to change standard price per period or per quarter or
half yearly.
Ammonia Sulphate solution is a CO product produced while producing
caprolactum. Costing of Caprolactum and ammonia Sulphate Solution
should be done after taking into account distribution of Ammonia Cost
on Co products, Sulphur Di oxide and Oleum only to Ammonia Sulphate
Solution and other cost only to Caprolactum.
While valuating Finished / Semi finished product Credit of by products
(including steam )coming out in the process should be given to cost of
manufacturing of parent product at pre defined rate ( Market Value ,
transfer price etc).
Valuation of Finished products / Semi finished product should be on
principal of absorption costing

2.3 Solution in SAP


In FACT finished / Semi Finished (Co Or By) products will be valuated at Standard
Price.

CO - Standard Costing/Actual Costing SAP Customer Confidential


15
However Standard price determination will be done using system only for
finished / semi finished/ Co products . By Product will have a standard Predefined
Fixed price and hence will not be a part of Standard Price calculation.

Material Cost :

Standard price will be calculated based on BOM and recipe for a product.

Per unit rate of RM to be used for calculating standard price is decided at


start of the year, which may be revised half yearly.

The above per unit rate will be fed in Material master of RM as Planned
price 1 with a valid starting date.

Operation Cost :

Operation cost / Overheads are computed based on Machine hours / labor Hours
and Factory hours involved in producing each unit of FG/SFG.

Standard Price per hours will be calculated based on Cost planning (Input
and Output planning) done on Manufacturing Line cost centers.

Input Plan : Cost Plan ( Please note : Input planning of cost when done at
manufacturing line cost center will involved plan cost transfer from
Support function and Maintenance cost centers , Credit of Steam cost
coming out of process etc)

Output Plan : Capacity Planning of plant

Once standard price is calculated, same is used for calculating total


process / operation cost.

Since the BOM structure is bound to change because of change % age of


procurement source of RM and SFG , its decided to have Standard Price per
period.

In SAP, Standard price calculated are presented in a pre defined structure call
Cost Component structure. This structure is used for analysis and reporting.

Below is the Cost Component structure decided for FACT.


Line 01 RM - Sulphur / Naphtha / Rock Phosphate (Consumption)
Line 02 RM- benzene / Caustic Soda (Consumption)
Line 03 RM-Others (Consumption)
Line04 SFG- Sulphuric Acid / Ammonia (Consumption)
Line 05 SFG - Phosphoric Acid (Consumption)
Line 06 SFG-Cyclo/ Anon (Consumption)

16
Line 15 Co product and By product ( Cost of Production)
Valuation of CO product :

In order to derive standard Cost of Co products, rules for distribution of cost are defined in
apportionment structure (with Source structure). These rules are written to meet the requirement of
Cost distribution in some ratio, Cost assignment to certain product.
Since valuation of finished and Semi finished product is based on Absorption costing,
Fixed and variable cost are made eligible for inventory valuation.
