Hi,

thanx for response,

We are trying to actual settle for all PM orders ( ko8g ).There is only error Message no. ZCO01007

It is validation error.Because Pm user is entering pm order confirmation ( IW41) but after the order is getting different cost element that we don't want one.

For example : before IW41 we are seeing 750*cost element in accounting document (we desire)

But after IW41 it is changing to 730*cost element when we tried to KO8G.

Best regards,

Hi Gültekin Yesil,

When you do the Confirmation of the Maintenance Order through IW41, it is nothing but you are confirming the Activities on the Order.

The Cost Element 730* what you are talking about which is automatically derived by the system is nothing but the Allocation Cost Element which you assigned in the Master Data of that Activity Type.

Whenever you confirm that Activity with respect to any Order, Activity Cost will be reperesented by that Cost Element 730*.

Now, when you say, User giving the Cost Element 750* manually, what is this Cost Element and where and why he is giving it manually?

Check the above and revert back for further assistance...

Would appreciate, if you can mention what process are you trying to do, what is the error message you get.
