Hi,

which object do you use as acccount assignment object?

You can uses help-transaction rkacshow to display the collected costs of the involved account assignment object.

Actaully  the KB21N is a well-used transaction, therefore I think, there is some settings rather a program error.

Kind regard,

I guess, I need to understand the basics here now...can anyone please explain me the cost postings and the results of it that includes kp26, kb21n...also i need to understand how is acccount assignment object releated here

Hi Ritu,

simplified info:

Using the KP26 you maintain how much an activity of a cost center cost, done by each year and each co version.

E.g. for 2014, activity 'program Java' of cost center 'IT' costs 50 Euros each hours.

If a guy from this cost center have done 10 hours for a WBS 'internal IT project') (or any costing object), he can now uses KP21N to book the costs, in which he input the activity 'program Java' of cost center 'IT) and efforts (10 hours) regarding the WBS 'internal IT project' .

The costing object (other name account assingment of the posting) get then the costs booked.

Figure = 10 * 50 = 500 Euros. Beside the firgure, there is other information stored in table COSS too.

As said, you can uses the rkacshow to see the posting of database level.

Kind regards,

Hi Zhenbo,

Also I have observed that...If I choose the screen variant and the input type as shown in the below screen, it works fine, document gets posted.....but am unable to understand the funda behind this.....Is it fine...or will it make any difference....any idea?

Hi Ritu,

the KP26 looks fine, but you make sure, that it is done at the months level (using the first left button ).

To post the hours it does not matter, which view you use. What has to be input is

.  the qnantity and unit (how much)

. the sender                 (cost center and activity)

. the receiver (account assignment object), in your case the WBS

Kind regards,

Zhenbo
