After lots of digging and some help from google, I finally found what I was missing to make material cost estimates. The following transaction all needed some tweaking in order to make my materials finally cost properly.
KA01 – needed to create a bunch of cost elements.
FS00 – needed to create some G/L accounts
the list of things to create, came from: OBYC & OKTZ. I had to dig through and use the error message to get to the right area, but for me, it was GBB, and my valuation area was empty, this finally led me to OMWD. the missing piece of my puzzle.
It’s a relief to finally have that working… now, on to posting some service order costs.
Great post! The insights on key material cost estimates are highly valuable and offer a clear understanding of how to manage material costs effectively.
