How to post actual cost in WBS element directly.

[dileepkurupk]

Hi Experts,

We have a situation where SAP PS WBS element captures planned cost but actual cost is not updated due to certain reason. Now we need to update actual cost directly in WBS element. E.g. 1000 USD as Planned cost and need to update actual cost as 1000 USD in WBS. Could anyone please help how to capture or post actual cost directly in WBS and how many ways we can achieve this with Tcodes.

Regards,

Dileep

Actual costs are posted to the WBS through many different transactions. Time charging, Purchase Orders, Material Issues, Asset Depreciation, Direct FI postings, etc. etc. What do you mean when you say you need to update the actual costs?

Hi Dileep,

You can post actual cost to WBS using t-codes: KB11N, KB21N, KB15N

based on your requirement you can use any of this t-code
