No accounting document on order settlement(KO88) for one cost element

[Former Member]

For one cost element, the accounting document is not generated after the settlement on maintenance order. But it gets generated for other cost elemets.

What can be the reason for this particular cost element that on its settlement thru KO88, its account document does not get generated.

[Former Member]

check the correct settlement cost element is assigned or not for the same and it should be secondary cost element.

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I able to find the reason and hope it will benefit to all.

If we have one profit center or busn area in MO and different profit center or busn area in its receiving cost center for settlement, then in such case accounting doc gets generated, or else not.

Thanks all for their efforts and answers.

hi,

can u tell me how to change depreciation from Starightline method to reducing balance method through Period control method

[Former Member]

Hello

System posting CO Document without accounting document and no error means, you please check Paulo point

"It depends on the New GL integration options, I guess the settlement receiver is a CO object, so it is CO internal settlement.

If your settlement is with a secondary cost element it needs a mapping to GL account to be reflected in FI document."

Hi Prem,

Check these 3 basic attributes which are basis to generate FI posting from CO, in your postings.

Profit center, Cost Center & Functional area,

If these do not change from the initial posting that was made from FI to Co, there will be no subsequent reverse posting, as FI considers it as no change in Financial attributes, and it really does not make any difference weather you post back to FI or No.

But i know sometimes it is hard to explain to customer, but ask you FI consultant to talk out to business why it really is not required back in FI.

Thanks in Advance.

How we will check if there is any difference in cost while settlement?

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Hi

   I am following thread  but still it is surprising that even you have defined it in CE group used in allocation structure source, giving different result. Please can you revert back the followings :

   1. Is it the only CE  ?

   2. The category of that CE ?

   3. Is it booked as Mat or PL exp in your Maint order

   4. If allocation structure is alright, then also see the settlement rules

After all clarification, we may see the issue

[Former Member]

Please find the reply.

1. Yes

2. 1.Primary costs/cost-reducing revenues

3. Mat consumption

4. settlement rules are correct as only few cost settlement lines are there which do not generate fin doc rest others generated the FI doc.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Hi

  So from your clarification it seems that CE of Mat consumption to Maint order are not generating settlement FI entries...and I think all lines are Mat consumption.

1. Your Mat is with Price control "V"  is it correct ?

2. So at the time of posting to Maint Order the same mat has posted to FI consumption GL...is it?

3. There is no price difference at the time of settlement..correct?

    So why at the time of settlement it will generate any FI entry,, for what amount?

    Is there any error msg comes during your settlemnt of Maint order to CCtr ?...No..is it?

  If these are the process, system behavior is correct.

  If you do not agree..pl revert back

[Former Member]

Please find reply.

1. Mat is with Price Control 'V'.

2. Yes

3.No

There is no error msg on settlement.

Should system generate FI entry on settlement, what is the correct process?

If yes, then why its not generation for certain settlement items and if No, then why its generating for other items.

What is the purpose the FI document after settlement.

Please refer screenshot where it shows.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Hi Prem

   1. All initial FI entries are passed during material consumption to order ..ok

   2. When you settle the order it transfer the cost from order to CCtr but before that you do some period end activities WIP/Variance/Revaluation etc to find out price difference of the posted cost in your order.

   3. If there is difference, then at the time of settlement these differences also part of your actual order cost and for these difference you need FI entries to adjust the initial entries.

   4. If there is no difference in cost for any item/activity then during settlement no FI entry will generate what has happened in your case because mat having MAP.

   5. Now..while it was generating FI entries for oth items ..I think that items are not Mat..they are activities like labour etc which was posted at plan price and after revaluation the cost has been changed to convert it to actual. The difference is adjusted at the time of settlement and that's why it has generated FI entries.

    I think now the whole scenario is clear...

[Former Member]

Hi Kamal,

I was also in same opinion, but this cost element is not behaving as so.

Even though there is no difference, it generated FI entries in some cases and they are material consumed against these MO, not service.

I am unable to track that why in few case it generates FI doc not in few its not.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Hi Prem

  Really interesting...

   What type of mat where FI doc generated and when it is not generating..

   Are you posting all these materials to same method?

   Can you please explain

[Former Member]

Its all material with Price control 'V'.

We are using same method.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Prem

  Can you test two scenarios in your Q server so that we can find out the actual reason of the behaviour:

   1. Create on MO and issue mat having CE not generating FI doc during settlement

   2. Also Create another MO and issue mat where FI is generated.

   3. Process the 2 MO and see the diff...

  Another question..

    Mat which is not generating FI doc and Mat generating FI entry have same Valuation class in MMaster data? or diff VC?

    If diff...check OBYC also in PRD & PRY key

[Former Member]

I have created MO, but both generated FI doc.

Unable to trace that on which case does it generates FI doc?

[Former Member]

Although I have checked both the case where valuation class is same.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Prem

Now really confused..if it generates FI doc in both the cases then where is the issue...that means issue is resolved..

Please then close the thread

[Former Member]

I think there some GAP in communication. You have asked to test one case, so i replied in that .

My issue is that sometimes FI doc generates on settlement and sometimes its not and I want to know why it happens and what is the case.

I have tested case given by you,both have generated FI doc, so again I am on same question that when it does not generates FI Doc.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Prem

   I have replied earlier that if there is no price diff there will be no FI doc but you are telling even then some cases it generates FI doc. Are you sure that for same material the system behavior is different even there is no price diff  ?

[Former Member]

Yes, I have crosschecked.

[kamalkumar_biswas2]

Prem

   Are also using same order type?

[Former Member]

Yes ,same order.

[former_member198650]

Hi Prem,

Check the allocation structure or source structure maintained in the settlement profile for the order in OPKT. The cost element might be not included in the structure. Due to this it is not getting posted.

Regards,

Mukthar

[Former Member]

The order is present in grp for source in allocation structure.

[former_member198650]

Have you checked the cost element has assigned in the allocation structure?

[Former Member]

Yes, we have assigned the cost element group and this cost element is in same group.

[former_member198650]

Check the entry date for the cost element posting whether it has been posted after you did settlement.

[Former Member]

Let it be. I am looking on the FI document for settlement line.

However I have seen that few settlement lines have generated FI doc and few not.

What can be the reasons?

[Paulo_Vitoriano]

It depends on the New GL integration options, I guess the settlement receiver is a CO object, so it is CO internal settlement.

If your settlement is with a secondary cost element it needs a mapping to GL account to be reflected in FI document.
