Dear Kaipa,

I suppose that you are making reference to the CO-PA costing based.

In costing-based CO-PA the goods issue for a delivery is never posted.

This business transaction is per system design not relevant for

costing-based PA. So even if you create a profitability segment for

this kind of posting you will not get a costing-based PA document.

The costs posted in FI with the goods issue will be transferred to

costing-based PA with the billing document. Usually the billing

document contains condition type 'VPRS' in order to represent the costs.

If for some reason you still wish to post the COGS to COPA during

goods issue you have to apply a modification in the system.

There are notes for this purpose 324688, 214381 and 337488.

So whichever transaction types you use please test that for these the

COPA values are not posted again during billing i.e. no duplication of

costs.

I hope my answer could clarify this issue.
