Custom record types in COPA

Hello SAP Gurus,

New record types can be created in "KEP1" but I do not know how to link that to different transactions.

For Example, If I am creating a record type "Z" and want to have this record type automatically detected for all postings of Production Variances, How it can be achieved? Are there any standard functions available?

Please advise. Thanks a lot for your time.

Regards,

PM
