Capture costs and revenues - WIP

Question

In CO module, we have a issue: manage all costs of sale project (Zeetech)
For example: The customer has a building, then Zee will install the electric system, air condition systemu2026. The requirement of Zee that: they want to control both revenue and cost for each sale project.
In SD module: they will create a sale order for a sale project. But in sale order, we only see the revenue.
The cost account  include:  main material cost account, auxiliary material cost account, labor cost account, overhead cost account
At the end of the period (monthly): we have 2 case
·         Case 1: The sale project finished: all cost account will be transferred to COGS account
·         Case 2: The sale project havenu2019t finished: a part of cost will be transferred to COGS, a part of cost will be transferred to work in process. In the next period, if  the sale project finished, we will transfer WIP to COGS
We test the solution that use internal Order: all cost will be captured to IO. we can set the settlement rule in IO: settle from IO to SO, so in SO we can see both revenue and cost (COGS). But the COGS account and WIP account which we settle is secondary cost. So, after settling the accountant have to post transaction manually in FI module. This solution is OK in case 1. But in case 2 : we have a problem: settle cost to WIP, if in the period we have many sale project havenu2019t finished, we only use one WIP account. In the next period, have some project finished we donu2019t know which cost of which sale project need to be settled from WIP account to COGS account.
So, if you have an other solution, please reply in the forum

Answer 1

You can meet this requirement thru configuration of Results Analysis Key.
Design the suitable RA key and assign RA key in Sales order master data.
At period end , You have to run Tcode KKA3 - Results Analysis / WIP , for all Sales orders which are still open.
