Component costs to be settled to FXA and Cost Center

[former_member586822]

Hi,

We defined a Order type where we set one Work Center[LABFXA] operation cost to settle to Asset and another Work Center[LABEXP] operation settle to Cost Center, through User Exit IWO10027. Operations Labour related cost postings settle to order perfectly. Work Center[LABFXA] operation cost gets settled to Asset and Work Center[LABEXP] gets settled to Cost center.

We have assigned components for Operation 1, where we have the Work Center [LABFXA] and assigned components for Operation 2 where we have the Work Center[LABEXP]. We have defined cost elements in Allocation structure for posting both Fixed Asset and Cost Center.

But when we settle the order: component cost for Operation 2 where we have the Work Center[LABEXP] settles to Fixed Asset. Is this component costs can be settled to Cost Center.

Please provide your inputs.

Thanks

Raja

Hello Raja - this is a good question; we have looked into this.

This is not possible unless you implement operational level costing - then you can split order/operations into FXA/Cost center. Otherwise this is not possible, as an order is really a single cost object, settling either to costs or assets

Hi Raja.

You can split the operations into 2 orders (normal order method or suborder method) so the settlement rule can be defined different.
