COPA document generated with Old Plant..

[Former Member]

Hi Team,

Our Client has migrated from old plant code 1 to new plant code 2.

When the Internal Oder/WBS settled, two COPA documents were created. One COPA Document with Record type B (Direct postings from FI/MM) with new plant code 1 and another COPA document with Record type C (Project/order settlement) with old plant code 2.

However, I have gone through the material master, settlement rules and Internal Order/WBS to verify for the plant and it was mentioned with new plant code 2 only, And I dont see the derivation rule for the plant also.,

Why the COPA document is been created with old plant code instead of new plant. And this issue we are facing with only for Order/WBS settlement for the record type C.

Please let me know your inputs

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

When you settle a WBS/IO the plant will be first checked on the settlement rule. If it is missing there then it will be taken from the sender object i.e. IO/WBS. Then derivation (tcode KEDR) will be called where the plant can be derived.

Other then this i cannot think of any other way in which the plant can be changed.

Hi,

In settlement rule, the New plant has been maintained for the receiver cat: MAT and from KEDR also for the PSG, the new plant code has been derived.

Hi,

what about adding an additional step in KEDR with a look up, that trascodify from old plant to new?

It shall solve the issue.

Hi All,

To Answer my question above, The COPA Realignment wasn't done after changes to new plants. Whenver the changes has been made at controlling orgn level, the realignment needs to do.

Closing this thread..
