Archived Service Orders settling in the month end job!!!

Hi All,
Service orders were archived using object PM_ORDER and now the month end settlement job has settled some very old service contracts. Why is this happening inspite of running the archive pre process job which ensures that the service orders have been settled before archiving them.
What can be done to correct them? We have a list of order numbers which have got settled, but not sure how to set this problem right.
Plus need to prevent this from happening in the next month end settlement.
This is a critical issue.. so any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Janani

Hi ,
1)  In general , archived Orders won't be avl in the system for process. Check whether those orders are really archived .
2) While running preprocess for archiving that is deletion process for Orders , it might have closed/deleted the linked objects ( for e.g. Purchase requisitions,reservation, etc ) . System might have settled those orders in the current settlement run

  • Settlement of the month end process order KKS1 & C088

    Hello all ,
    we are trying to settle the variance & upadte WIP for the month end but facing some  problems.
    When try to Run KKS1 getting the errors for some ordera as
    Only remaining var. in version 0 - no target costs for 000001003928.
    Should we just ignore these errors & proceed with the settlement which is using Txn CO88.
    Also if I run the CO88,I  hope it just updates the WIP account so whether there is any high risk of running this transaction.
    Any documentaion on CO88 will be helpful  & also if you can explain what is reasons for  the errors on KKS1 then it will be quite helpful .
    Thanks,
    AG

    Hello All ,

    Order already has the delivered & Techoed status.
    Thanks,

  • Assiging wbs element as settlment receiver in service order settlement

    Hi PM CS Experts.
    We are using scenarios of creation of service order from sales order. So whatever cost we incurred for service order settling to sales order via settlement rule - settlment receiver is Sales order i.e. SDI. We are using settlement profie XX which have default object type for settling SDI.   While releasing the service order the settlement rule created with settlement receiver is SDI.
    Now for different business scenarios, we are settling service order cost to WBS. Now we want to create a settlemetn rule for WBS, settlement receiver will be WBS element,  while saving the service order.  What configuration, master data or processes we have to follow for this.
    please reply on this.
    regards
    abhay

    Sales Order line item have account assignment WBS element. From this sales order line, a service order will be created.   So our idea is whatever cost booked to service order should be settled to wbs element instead of sales order.  
    also in location tab of service order, the wbs element from sales order is not inherrited in account assignment section.  Why this we are not knowing. Have you have any idea for this.

  • Service Order Settlement - assigned to PSG

    Hi,
    I need a help regarding Service Order Settlement assigned to Profitability Segment.
    Currently, in our system every item of SD Invoice posts revenues and COGS to profitability segment (PSG).
    Main characteristic of PSG are: Customer, Product, Division, Profit Center.
    We have implemented CS module using in Car maintenance service.
    And now in CS module it is not possible to get PA document automatically after an invoice posting so we have to settle Service Order to PSG.
    But Settlement rule for Service Order is not on item level (per every material-product separately).
    We wants to have the same rules (per Product char.) for Service Order as we had so far in SD.
    Is it possible to customize Settlement rule of Service Order on item level?
    For instance according to an Invoice items from document flow:
    Thanks,

  • Service Order settlement

    Hi,
    I need to set-up settlement of a service order. Can anyone tell how to go about it? To which elements does usually a service order settles? Primary/Secondary, is secondary the how does it get posted to G/L ?
    Thanks,
    Pankaj.

    hi pankaj..
      Settlement takes place through settlement rules you have created for the order.The costs are initially collected on the order. They are then transferred to the settlement receiver (Fixed asset ,Cost center ,WBS element,Order ,G/L ccount ,Material ,Asset under construction etc)specified in the settlement rule.
    You can settle an order if:
    1.It is released
    2.It has the status Settlement rule created
    3.Costs collected for it have not yet been settled
    4.A business completion has not yet been performed for it
    Creating a Settlement Rule Manually
    Call up the order in change mode.
    Choose Settlement rule.
    The following cases can occur:
    If a settlement rule already exists for the order, you reach the screen Maintain Settlement Rule: Overview directly.
    Check the settlement rule.
    To change it, go to detail data on the Maintain Settlement Rule: Distribution Rules screen, where you can make additional entries.
    If a settlement rule does not yet exist for the order, you must first specify whether you want to maintain the settlement rule with or without the system proposal for the distribution rule. A screen appears where you can maintain the settlement rule.
    Make all the necessary entries on this screen.
    Return to the order and save it.
    I think this will help you

  • GR/IR at the month end

    Hello,
    What we have to do with GR IR account for clearing at the month end.
    Regards
    Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
    GR/IR clearing is the month end activity. To do this first you should maintain gl accounts under open item managment.
    the GR/IR Clearing account is used to account for Goods Receipt and Invoice entry for the vendor invoices. The GR/IR clearing account program reclassifies the entries in GR/IR account as either assets or liabilities for reporting purpose. At the period end which goods receipt has been done and for which Invoice has not been recd or goods for which invoice has been done and GR has not been done. During the time between invoice being created and delivered the goods. To accommodate this timing difference a gr/ir clearing account is maintain temporarily to record the flow
    hope it will useful and pl assign points
    thanks

    Dear raj kumar,
    1. Service order and Notification: These are used for Customer Services, i.e., these are used for  processing the customer complaints regarding the equipments technical problems installed at customer locations.
    In this scenario, we sell equipments to customer and also offers the services for that equipments on chargeable basis or free of cost as per sales terms and conditions.

    In this scenario, we buy the equipments from the vendors and carry out the maintenance ourselves.

  • User exit for profitability segment in service order settlement rule

    Does anybody know if exit EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 works for the profitability segment creation during the creation of a settlement rule of a service order?
    The context is the following: the company uses service orders which are settled periodically (it receives revenue from sales order which is posted to the service orders at time of billing, and also costs at time of goods issue). The profitability segment in the settlement rule of the service order needs to be the same as the one from the billing document that posted to the order.
    Can I use EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 to find the characteristics from the billing document and populate it in the PSG of the settlement rule? If yes, could this be applied to only one specific service order type?
    Thank you.

    Hi
    If your settlement is triggered by a batch or is triggered by a workflow exit EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 is not run. From release 5.00 on characteristic groups are indeed not considered any more during batch input processes because there were problems before with initial chars of a CO-PA line item resulting from a batch input process that actually shouldn't be initial.
    Refer SAP Note 581739, which put an end to usage of char groups during batch input processes. Also refer SAP Note 142628.

  • Service Order settlement to GL

    Hi,
    I want to settle the service order created for customer under warranty to a - Warranty Claim GL.
    I have maintained the settlement rule in the service order for Gl and have given the - Warranty Claim Gl also.
    Settlement in KO88 is also happening with full amount being settled to the GL (Material + labour).
    My query is since the material consumption is already shown as an expense do we need to settle the material part also to the GL.
    What is correct method to process service order under warranty?
    Also where i can default the settlement Rule for the service order?

    Hi,
    What you said is correct because the Gl - Warranty Claim is only getting debit and credit for settlement.
    How actually is the process for customer warranty done through service order.
    The client wants to post cost incurred to service the machine to the GL - Warranty claim.
    Since they cannot bill the customer.
    what is the correct method of doing the service order under warranty.

  • Count of Service Orders issue in the Bex Report

    Hi Experts,
    I have a report displaying the Count of Service Orders. The count of service orders I have brought using replacement path variable.
    The count is getting displayed correctly. When I have the service order in a single record.
    The moment I drag and drop the material from the Free Characteristic pane. The count of Servie order increases because the same service order is repeated for Material A ( in the First Line) and Material B ( in the Second Line ).
    And my report doesn't have any keyfigure to built an Exception Aggregate.
    Can anyone please tell me how do I make my Count to read only the unique Service orders.
    Thanks

    Hi Shanthi Bhaskar,
    Thanks for your link.
    I have already referred to this link and created the count of Service orders. But it is not uniquely identifys the service order numbers.
    Irrespective how many number of time the same service order gets repeated in the report it should only give me a count as 1 for other service order as 2.
    Hope its clear.
    Thanks

    Hello Zita,
    Try to restart your portal after creating <b>ServiceUser</b> in both UME and KM.
    One more major difference between ServiceUser and normal portal user is that a ServiceUser does not have a UserAccount (IUserAccount)
    Object serviceContext = null;
            try {
                serviceContext = AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedExceptionAction() {
                    public Object run() throws WcmException {
                        return ResourceFactory.getInstance().getServiceContext(CONTRACT_SERVICE_USER);
            } catch (PrivilegedActionException e) {
                logger.severe(e, "ResourceContext for the technical " + serviceUser +
                     " user could not be retrieved.");
    IResourceContext resCtx = (IResourceContext) serviceContext;
    So I modify all KM resources with this resCtx.
    Hope this helps ...
