This document discusses an SAP note about initializing actual cost component splits after activating the feature in Customizing. The initialization process populates cost component split entries for existing materials' standard prices and activity prices. If the feature was activated after the material ledger production startup, the MLCCS_STARTUP program must be run separately to initialize the cost component splits. Running this program ensures consistent cost component split data.

component split Note Language: English Version: 5 Validity: Valid Since 03.12.2003 Summary Symptom After you activated the actual cost component split in Customizing, some actual cost component split entries are missing. Especially with a current posting, for example, goods movement the system may issue error message 'Internal Error in LMLCCS_UPDATEF02 LCL_DB method get_normvector position A with RC 1 '. In addition, it may issue error MLCCS099 'Internal error in FORM / FUNCTION MLCCS_STORNO_TABLES_CREATE in position 1 with RC 4 'if after activation of the actual cost component split you want to reverse order settlements without cost component split information. Other terms ACTCCS; MLCCS; ACTMASTER; Program MLCCS_STARTUP; CNACT Reason and Prerequisites o Material ledger is active o Actual cost component split was activated in Customizing, however only after the material ledger production startup. Solution If the option of the actual cost component split was already activated before the production startup material ledger in Customizing, the program SAPRCKMJ, which is the material ledger production startup, initializes also the actual cost component split. In this process, the data of the current and prior period as well as the last period of the previous year are edited with all currency types edited in the accounting of actual costs. o All materials with price determination 3 get an initial cost component split of the standard price. If a current cost estimate exists for the standard price the cost component split of the cost estimate is transferred. If there is no cost estimate the cost component split is created through setting of the total of all amounts into a cost component which corresponds to the consumption cost element of the material. Typically, this cost component is referred to a 'Raw material costs' or similar. o For activity or business process (ABC) prices which were updated in the actual costing inital cost component splits of the plan price are created. In Customizing if the actual cost component split option is activated after the production startup, for example, because ML was already imported in a former release without actual cost component split the clearing of the actual cost component split must be be carrying out in a separate step happens by starting program MLCCS_STARTUP which can be executed online via Transaction SE38 or SA38 in the background. For data consistency reasons it is recommended to execute the program at the beginning of a period, when no goods movements or other postings have been carried out recommended to close preceding periods if possible. It can not be ensured that after activation of the actual cost component split periods in which the cost component split was not active yet can be posted to without problems. Program MLCCS_STARTUP executes the steps as above and in addition: o For already collected price differences cost component splits are generated. These receive the same structure as the standard price of the material. If program MLCCS_STARTUP was not executed first and there were already movements, new materials were created, or periods were moved, actual cost component split data may be partially exists. In order to receive a consistent status, we recommend to first delete all existing actual cost component split data using program MLCCS_RESET and then to reinitialize all existing actual cost component split data with program MLCCS_STARTUP. Note that in this case all historical data is lost.
