BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE plus profitability segment settlement

I am trying to create internal orders using BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE, in the Settlement rules data I want to settle to profitability segment but I can't find away to do this. I can settle to other orders, cost centers and WBS elements but not PSG.
Are you guys aware of any way I cant do this. How can I derive profitability segment from PNL? is there other functions that will help do this?
Thank you very much
Omar

BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE settlement rule for profitability segment

I am trying to create internal orders using BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE, in the Settlement rules data I want to settle to profitability segment but I can't find away to do this. I can settle to other orders, cost centers and WBS elements but not PSG.
Are you guys aware of any way I cant do this. How can I derive profitability segment from PNL? is there other functions that will help do this?

Omar

Yes that field is enabled for settling from settlement profile configuration. The other enabled fields like order, cost centers and profit centers are available.
I think the BAPI is missing this functionality since the profitability segment has to be derived from other characteristics like PNL.
Are you guys aware of any functions that do the derivation of the profitability segment given PNL for example?
In this case where the BAPI is missing some key function what is the best way forward?
Thanks very much

Maintenance Cost Settlement on Profitability Segment

Hi, Can anyone tell me, that how can we settle our Maintenance Cost from PM to a Profit Center. In my company there is a Cost receiver defined as Profitability Segment and available in Settlement Rule. Can anyone explain, what does it mean. Are we settling out Maintenance Cost to profit Center directly or somewhere else.

Abhishek Sharma,
Yes, you can settle a Profit Segment.
Have a look at the Settlement Profile assigned to your order type (IMG: Maintain Settlement Profiles).

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.

Material number in profitability segment in internal order settlement rule

Hello,
We have a process which is the following: the real posting for the revenue in the sales order is an internal order. Once the internal order settlement is done, then the values flow to COPA.
The material shows up in the revenue FI document, but it does not show when we look at the internal orders line items.
I need to have the material number from the sales order (from the revenue posting) automatically identified in the profitability segment in the settlement rule of the internal order.
Would anyone know how this can be done?
Thank you!

Hi,
Where exactly are you checking for the material no ? When you settle the IO to COPA a record type C will be created in COPA. Is the material no missing in the record type C ?
In that case if the sales order no is available on the internal order then you can in a derivation rule do a table lookup on VBAP and get the material no.

Waman

Problem with profitability segment derivation while posting sales order

Hello,
We have the issue of profitability segment being not derived when the sales order is changed using BAPI 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'. Subsequent to calling this BAPI we execute a BDC - to derive the profitability segment - which runs well in the foreground but fails in the background. Immediate help in this regards would be of immense help.
I have searched the forum but could not locate anything useful. There is this thread (Re: BDC for profitability segment VA02 (sales order)) citing the same problem but without answers.
Kind Regards,
Indu Shekar

Probability Segment is maintained but Profitability Segment is still grayed out.
The only way i was able to move things to COPA was to do a project Settlement from
WBS element to Profitability Segment (PSA).
But does anyone know if we can move things to COPA during Sales Order (specifically for a project-based Sales Order)?
Thanks.

Sales Order No profitability segment!! Account assignment error!!!

Dear Experts
We are running an MTO(make to order) scenario!
First we create an contract in the system!Then we create sales order
with reference to this contract!
And when the sales order is sent to the planning department! They use
TCODE:CO08 create production order with reference to the sales order!
But we get an error message as follows:
Account assignment cannot be carried out because of different origin no.
Message no. V1134
Diagnosis
The sales document to which you want to refer is based on sales document 41033737 and item 000010.
Therefore, the settlement and possibly inventory management are carried out using the number of the
preceding document.
ut when I entered the the contract in Co08 and then I am able to create
the production order.
And when I back to see the detail in the sales order ,I find there is no
value in the account assignment to the profitability segment!!
Why the sales order have no profitability segment??*
Why we can not create production order with reference to sales order??
It seems there are one problem!
Thanks for any reply!!

Please refer note 327195 or 35445
thanks

Hi,
If CO-PA is active settlement transfer the costs and revenue of the sales order item to profitability segment in CO-PA, if not active it gets transferred to G/L account in FI.
Regarding functionality of Profitability segment - Need to specify Characteristics in CO-PA for profitability segments and these characteristics are used for Information system and planning. Charcteristics which are not involved in profitablity segment remains in the line item of CO-PA. In essence charcteristics decides on profitablity segments.
Regarding removal of Profitablity segment no in Sales order .Kindly refer back to the earlier threads.
Thanks & Regards

Sales order derivation on profitability segment from WBS element

I have an issue where we are creating a contract in CRM. The contract then ties to a project in PS and then has a WBS element assigned to it. In looking at the settlement rule and the profitability segment the sales order/contract is not being populated. We looked into having user exit COPA0001 populate it for us, but sales order can not be a target field.
My question is, shouldn't the sales order derive automatically already? If not, any ideas on how to get it populated in order to flow to COPA?
BTW, we are on CRM 7 and ECC 6.0.

Found the answer.
Implemented note 332909, then ran transaction CJB2 to automatically add settlement rules to WBS elements. This in turn derived the needed characteristics on profitability segment for posting to COPA.

How to update sales order number (KAUFN) characteristic in the profitability segment of the PA document created at the time of service entry sheet confirmation, as a result of shipment cost document

Hi,
We have a scenario wherein we create shipment cost documents against delivery. As a result of shipments fully transferred, a PO for freight vendor is automatically created and a service entry sheet confirmation happens. As a result of service entry sheet confirmation, we have Financial accounting, Controlling and profitability analysis documents created. We have a requirement wherein we need to have the characteristic “sales order number (KAUFN)” populated in the profitability analysis document created as a result of service entry sheet confirmation.
Could someone please advice how could this be attained in COPA. Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi Ajay,
Thank you for the quick update.
The document is updated to COPA through OKB9 settings. The profitability segment is updated with fields like customer, product, company code, plant, sales area data, profit center, etc; however the sales order number is missing.
Could you please elaborate further how could FI substitution be implemented to call for the FM COPA_PROFITABILITY_SEGMENT through user exit? Are you recommending the substitution through GGB1? What could be the possible validation to call for the user exit to be implemented?

Profitability Segment while releasing invoice to Accounting

Hi,
I am configuring a scenario in which a debit memo request and a corresponding debit memo will be created. Users want to put in a WBS element at the line item level of the debit memo request (which is fine). Business gave me a GL account in which the profitability segment is a required entry. Now, when I try to release the invoice to accounting, I get an error saying "Field Prof.Segmt is a required field for G/L account" (Msg Number F5808). I know that by changing the field status group on the GL account, i can make it post, but that is not the point. I want to know
a. Why system is unable to determine the profitability segment (i entered GL account in OKB9 and checked auto determination of profitability segment)
b. Is it because I am using the WBS element and trying to post to both FI and CO (because, when i use WBS in sales order, during account determination, system looks for KOFK condition type to determine the GL account) and i am not supposed to do that? If i do not use a WBS, then, the posting happens (using KOFI) and the profitability segment is also determined.)
Please let me know if you need more information.
Your help is most appreciated.
Regards,
Mukund S

We closed this issue by changing the field status group for the GL account. Though this is not the perfect answer, we had to do it for the business need.
