Dear

when you create maintenance order ,the cost center entered in the equipment master record will get copied to the settlement receiver ,the maintenance cost center will be responsible cost center which means responsible for carrying the work.

hi

can you be specific in which area you are finding which cost center.

example for equipment 1000 your cost center is XXXX and the cost center for Maint work center is YYYY,

then while creating the order if you have specified 1 hr work then system will calculated based on the planning done in KP26 for the activity and cost center (YYYY) maintained in the Maint workcenter

the total amount including of the internal labour ,material etc will be settled to the cost center XXXX which will be defaulted to the settlement receiver .

i hope i have cleared ,if not revert back

hi

responsible cost center is the one which is specified in the maintenance work center ,once you run the settlement ,the amount which referenced to the internal labour will get credited and while issued the salary to the persons involved then debit will be done
