Detail of Cost elements Settled to VV
Hi experts
How can see the details of cost elements that has been settled to a specific Value Filed?. I made assessment cycle and defined the cost elemnts groups and Value Fields, but I need to cross check the amount assessed to COPA with that in Cost Center.
Any clues?
HI,
One alternative is to use KE24 (Actual line item) report, where you can include 'Cost element' and 'Value fields' in the layout to compare. Or, you can even use table CE1XXXX.
Hope this helps.

we settle network to WBS, then AUC, in CJ88, receiver debt shows 5000023 cost element, where can we setup this cost element? It's different from the cost element we maintained in network assignment, is it reasonable?
yes that should be fine
your cost element should be type (or category) 21/22 depending on internal or external settlement
in your case WBS to AuC should be type 22
go to KA02 transaction and check cost element details
this cost element should also be entered in your allocation structure config for settlement to AuC (FXA) -
All cost elements picked up while performing KSS2
Hi Guru's,
I have a splitting structure where in the assignments related to cost element and activity type have been done correctly.
Now when I am trying to execute KSS2 for thiscost center , It gives me the details for cost elements besides the range which i have specified while assigning. The postings on these cost elements have been broken into different activity types as per function.. But my question is if we have specified exact range of cost elements through groups why is the system picking other cost elements to which postings have been made in this Cost center.
Thanks.
Kind Regards,
Neeraj GuptaHi,
you need to use a splitting scheme in which,
if you want to exclude from calculation a specif cost element,
you need to insert a specific rule "no splitting".
Simply not defining one cost element in your splitting structure
does not mean it will be automatically excluded.
If you do not exclude your cost elements e x p l i c e t el y the system
will consider the default rule, "equivalence numbers".
Please also check SAP notes 772794 and 721487 carefully as they describe the process

G/L account & cost element
Pls. clarify how G/L account & cost element is utilized in case of PM orders i.e. actually how these two relate to costing in PM orders.
Hi,
Basically Cost Elements are Cost Carriers. Cost elements enable you to break down the cost associated with one cost bucket into more granular entities.
Primary Cost Element:
When cost element carriers cost between FI and CO they are called Primary, the link is established GL A/c = Cost element(Primary). Primary cost elements are like materail costs, personnel costs, energy costs... where a corresponding GL account exists in FI..to allow costs to flow...
Secondary Cost Element :
When cost element carries cost with in CO, then they are called secondary cost element.
Secondary cost elements are like production costs, material overheads, production overheads, they can be created and administered in only CO. These are used in internal cost allocation, overhead calculation, settlement transactions., it does not flow to FI...
Plant Maintenance:
Cost Elements will be linked to Value Categories. Based on that, costs will be calculated for the PM Order. Cost element creation is based on Business Requirements. For Example, if you want to see the Material Cost (without considering whether internal or external), one cost element will be defined. If you want to see the same separately, 2 different cost elements should be defined. This is apllicable for labor category as well (Internal or External).
In turn, based on cost element assignment under Allocation Structures, settlement will be done on those cost elements. In Allocation structures, Source cost elements & Settlement cost elements will be defined. Based on that, while doing order settlement, costs will be posted to concern cost elements from cost objects (Orders).

Hi Experts,
May i know how can do the budgeting for WBS element & how WBS is link with cost element.
ARHi Amit Rana ,
If you use WBS as cost object. You can do budgeting baseed WBS hierarchy (T-CODE:CJ30).
You can do planning based WBS detail to cost elements(T-CODE:CJ40), but WBS budget only to WBS hierarchy.

Work Order to cost center settlement with line item detail
Iu2019m having difficulty finding a method to settle from a work order to a cost center with line item detail. When an order is settled with KO88 or KO8G the total value for that work order/cost element combination is combined and posted to the cost center as a lump sum with the description of CTR\######. Users would like to see the individual values that posted to the work order in a cost center report such as KSB1.
I donu2019t see anything in the settlement rule, settlement profile or allocation structure that will allow line item settlement from work order to cost center. Is line item settlement possible when settling to a cost center? Is there an alternate way to see these expenses as line items in KSB1?
Thanks,
JeffThanks Christian,
We've defined an allocation structure that we use for Project System and Work Order settlement and have Receiver Categories established as FXA, CTR and WBS with "by Cost Element" checked. Work order costs do settle to the cost center entered in the settlement rule, the problem is it combines all items values as a single amount when posting to the cost center.
For example:
expenses post to the work order under cost element 500000 for $500, $200, $300 and cost element 600000 for $250 and $250. The settlement rule says to settle to cost center 170000. When the settlement takes place cost center 170000 is debited $1000 to cost element 500000 and $500 to cost element 600000. We would prefer to see individual posting of $500, $200, $300 to 500000 and $250, $250 to 600000.
Thanks,

COPA: Unable to settle Cost Element
Good Morning COPA Guru's-
I am learning COPA the hard way (no formal training) and I am having trouble with a particular Cost Element 500600 not settling to COPA. It looks like everything set-up correctly. In fact, the settings are identical in the other Co.code. Our users have attempted to settle several times with no luck.
Any ideas?Perhaps you can you give a little more detail on what you are trying to do. If you are settling an order to COPA then you need to assign a PA transfer structure to the settlement profile and maintain the transfer structure. This is not company code dependent, so if this is working for some company codes and not others, then I don't think this what you're refering to.
If you are posting an FI or MM document and want the item to also post to COPA then you need to maintain a setting in t-code OKB9 for that cost element (click the profitability segment button). This is company code specific so perhaps this what you are refering to. Also, you'll need to maintain a mapping of the cost element to a value field in the PA transfer structure (structure FI), but that is not company code depending so you should already have that.
thanks, -
Cost elements set in KEI1 A1 Settle Production Variances?
Dear Experts,
What kinds of cost elements would be set in KEI1 If the PA transfer str. is A1Settle Production Variances?
10 Input price variance
20 Input quantity variance
30 Resource-usage variance
40 Remaining input variance
50 Mixed-price variance
60 Output price variance
70 Lot size-/fixed-cost variance
80 Remaining variance
90 Scrap
Could i say "cost elements that we can see when we do KKS1 variance caluation?
Or else?
Thanks in advance.Hello,
You NEVER assign cost elements to value fields for mapping the settlement in COPA. Instead of that what you do is in the source tab for the line (eg 10 Scrap) select the radio button called ' varainces on production orders' and input the appropriate variance category eg. eg SCRP. In value field tab you would assign the appropriate value field. There is no need to assign cost elements. When you execute variance calculation the information is captured in the following fields and the same flow to COPA when you assign the variance category to value fields.
PRIV Input Price Variance
QTYV Input Quantity Variance
RSUV Resource-Usage Variance
INPV Remaining Input Variance
MXPV Mixed-Price Variance
OPPV Output Price Variance
LSFV Lot Size Variance/Fixed-Cost Variance
REMV Remaining Variance
SCRP Scrap
The variance calculation is not just a simple difference between the cost elements it is also related to quantity as well.

Results Analysis Settle Internal Order (from CRM) - No cost element allowed
In SPRO results analysis configuration to "Define Posting Rules for Settlement to Financial Accounting" I am not allowed to use an account with a cost element. (Error: I get error KQ 119 G/L account ### cannot be created as a cost element.)
I configure a G/L account with no cost element. KO88 Settlement posts to G/L account fine; however, does not post to the internal order because the config mentioned on first line does not allow me to use an account with a cost element.
Problem: I am unable to see settlement in KOB1 report because settlement goes to GL Account, but does not post to the internal order.
Failed solution: I tried to use OKC9 substitution at KO88 to substitute the internal order number. The problem is that table AUFKV is empty when the substitution runs at KO88 settlement. I am not able to substitute the order number because the order number isn't even available in the substitution at internal order settlement.
I put a break manual break point in program GBTACCOB at the call to the substitution rule I defined. The breakpoint stops at the substitution when I run KO88 settlement; however, fields are blank. I am unable to do substitution. I know this works because I have a similar substitution on the same internal order for accounting indicator when doing an MB1A goods issue to an internal order. The break point stops there and the AUFKV data is available for substitution rule.
Question:
Any suggested solutions to to have internal order update into KO88 settlement after KKA1 results analysis would be helpfull.It is more of a reporting issue really.
The problem is that internal order settlement with settlement profile instead of results analysis does post the settlement to the internal order and does use a cost element. This is the business process the users currently have. Our users have a requirement to settle the orders weekly. This helps them find issues earlier and speeds up the month end close.
In the past we could use KOB1 and see the current balance of an internal order and see the settlement. Now that report no longer shows the settlement. How can I see what has been settled on an order and what hasn't now? -
WBS settlement to AUC - use original cost elements?
Hello gurus
We have an allocation structure which settles project WBS costs to AUC.
The issue is that it is using a single settlement cost element for all the costs going to the AUC.
I notice there is a tick box 'by cost element' in the 'Allocation structure:settlement cost elements' entry for FXA.
What is the result of using this tick box?
We would like the original cost elements in the WBS to be credited rather than the single one.
Is this possible?
Thanks everyoneHi
- we do not have secondary cost elements posted
- we do not use budget checking
As I said, we would like the original cost elements against the WBS to be credited. The single one is causing problems because it posts in total to 55291 (as in the configuration) which does not reconcile back to the many cost elements posted to the WBS.
Is this possible?
What is the effect of the check box 'by cost element' as we do not understand the help text on this checkbox field and are not sure if this could solve the problem (or there is a downside to using this). If this is not possible we would like to know as well.
Thanks all -
Define a settlement cost element for receiver type FXA
Hi,
While settling the AUC internal order,i am gettingg the below error.Kindly advice me
Define a settlement cost element for receiver type FXA
Message no. KD506
Diagnosis
In allocation structure A1 (controlling area AFCO), you did not define which cost element should be used when settling costs/revenues of the sender. Nor did you define receiver type FXA.
Procedure
Assign a different allocation structure to the settlement sender (-> Master data -> Settlement rule -> Goto -> Settlement parameters), or maintain allocation structure A1.
Thanks
SupriyaHi Supriya,
Go to SPRO-> Controlling > Internal orders>Actual postings>Settlement> Maintain Allocation structures & choose A1 and go to assignment, select the relevant category like raw material / consumption and then go to source, check the range of cost elements first then click the settlement cos t element and under that choose FXA and define the settlement cost element which must be created under 22 category.
After maintainig the above, you will not get the error anymore.
Thanks & Regards

Dear All,
I have settlement defined in pa transfer structure, if at the same time I have more than 1 cost element to settle to different value field in copa, can the secondary cost element in settlement able to settle 2 or 3 different cost element to value field accordingly?
example, i have cogs $500, freight $400 and sales $2000 cost element.
then in settlement i have a sce, this sce will have $1100. can this sce settle these 3 element to value field respectively in copa?
ThanksHi!
define different assignments for each category and then assign source cost elements to them.
then give value fields and select second option 2- variable amounts field, define differnt field.

Settled costs don't display in hierachy and by cost element report!
Hi Experts,
After doing project settlement, I check in hierarchy cost report (S_ALR_87013533) and by cost element report (S_ALR_87013543) and found that: Costs which had been settled did not display anymore!!
It's not my expectation because I want to see the total actual cost of project.
Please help to advise.
Thanks and best regards,
Khoa HuynhHi Sreenivas Kadiam,
So you mean that only when we settle project cost to CO production order, in Project cost report, balance will be zero is the standard behavior, am I right?
Because when I settled the project cost to AUC, the total actual cost of project still display in Project cost report.
Thanks and best regards,

Settle internal order to primary cost element
Hi all,
We use internal orders to collect costs for cars. We differentiate between fuel and maintenance costs. Both cost elements are set up being primary cost elements.When settling the internal order costs are settled using a secondary cost element. What do I need to change and where do I have to change this to have the cost settled against the original, primary cost elements (fuel/maintenance)?
Any help is appreciated.
Best regards, PaulHi,
Check the setting
Controlling ->Internal Orders ->Actual Postings->Settlement->Maintain Allocation Structures.
& also check the settlement profile.

Define a settlement cost element for receiver type CTR
Hi, i work for real estate company and we just implemented SAP. were on our process of closing our books and we are tied by error during PS settlement. House repair, which is an income statement account and cost element as well, are monitored in Project Systems with settlement rule set to GL. Postings will initially be posted as Project Cost WBS and will be settled to house repair GL. however, someone advised us that only balance sheet accounts should be settled to GL. Cost and expenses should be settled to Cost Center and so we changed the configuration and business process to posting costs directly to GL house repair and settlemet rule is to be settled to CTR. After the change in configurations and settlement rule, we still cannot process settlement due to this error "Define a settlement cost element for receiver type CTR". Please help, i may have missed a step in system configurations. Thanks thanks
Define a settlement cost element for receiver type CTR
Check in OKO6 whether you have defined the required Settlement Cost Element to the allocation structure.
