Urgent Please. We are having issues with settlement with couple of our new projects.
When running CJ88, the planned cost is settling to COS.
With the projects with issues, when I run CJEN it is showing the planned cost as RUCR which I think it should be RIML.
RA key are the same for all project, so not sure where the issue is coming from.
With our previous projects actual costs are accumulated in WIP until Sale is taken.
Thanks for your help.
Sounds like you are using Completed Contract method where all costs and revenue are moved to the balance sheet until contract completion.
RUCR is reserves for unrealized costs is used with POC methods.
RIML is a reserve of imminent loss where your planned costs are higher than your planned revenue.
With pure completed contract you should have WIPR.
The problem is with your RA key.
Are you running RA prior to settlement?

Sorry I'm still a newbie with project systems.
Our process is:
CJ88 or CJ8G - All actual of NWA settles to the superior WBSE
KKA2 - Calculates WIP
CJ88 or CJ8G - Settles WIP to financial accounting.
When Project is Teco'ed then cost in WIP then transfer to COS.
Issue is with the new project created, the first CJ88 run, the planned cost is seen to be transferring to the COS cost element.
When I run CJEN the issue project has RUCR which is equals to the planned cost. While when I run CJEN with the correct projects, there is no RUCR instead it's RIML.
The RA key is exactly the same on the correctly settling projects and the issue project so I do not know where the issue is coming from. Is there somewhere it's storing the original planned cost because I tried adding planned labour on the project and then run CJ88 test and the original planned amount is still transferring to COS.
Do I need to check the Sales order or configured part number and where would the error could be.
Thanks for your help.
Hi Deana,
Ken is exactly right, RIML means your planned cost is bigger then your planned revenue. The planned revenue is coming from the Sales order (normally), so please check if the amount is correct there and why it is less then planned cost.
On the other hand I would not consider RIML as a BAU situation, so bit puzzled you consider it "normal" and not the RUCR.
Here is some help, but it is not really useful if you never seen it before:

Can you please share a screen from the transaction OKG1 for your RA key?
Regards,
Hi Paulo,
Thanks for your help.
Above is the snapshot of the RA key as requested.
In CJ20N, I have added planned labour and also parts to the project and re-run CJ88 and still the original planned cost is settling to the COS cos element. We do not want any planned cost to settle to COS, only actual.
This is a snapshot of CJ88. At this stage no actual cost is on the project yet.
Thanks,
Deana
