Making Settlement rule mandatory for creating any WBS element

Hello All,
We have an requirement that system should not allow us to save any WBS element until the settlement rule is maintained.
This we want only for WBS elements where Investment rule is not assigned.
Can alyone help me to find out if this is possible, if yes then how.
Points Assured.
Thanks & Regards,
Jatinder Bansal

Hi,
The only way it seems possible is using exists in validations.
if not try to check the status of the wbs element in a validation. function module is STATUS_CHECK. and i think the system might set a special status, if a settlement rule has been maintained for a wbs element.

How can I make settlement rule mandatory in create work order (IW31)

How can I make settlement rule mandatory in create workorder and saving without release.
I kanow we can make settlement rule mandatory upon Release order but here requirement is
Create work order (IW21) save without releasing that time settlement rule should default.

Hi,
1.If you want the settlement rule default then maintain account assignment data in technical object and when MO is created on that it would be copied into the settlement rule...
2. If you want to make those fields mandatory .... plz check up field selections in config , if you cannot find those then use SHD0 Transaction variant to make those fields mandatory.
3. Enter SHD0 , Enter IW31 in transaction and ZIW31 for transaction variant ..click create option and this takes you to IW31 initial screen , here enter required values of technical object etc and press enter and this gives you IW31 Initial scree screen variant , click continue and this takes you to inside screen and here enter required field values and on pressing enter gives you screen variant .. so you need to enter field values and check the flow of screen variants and on getting settlement rule screen variant select required option for the fields you need.
4. Finally you can save that in package created in SE80 for transporting to other client .., you can activate the variant in SHD0 -->Standard variants -->you can find activate option ..

Settlement rule Mandatory for Plant Maintenance order

Hi Expert!
I want to make the option Settlement rule mandatory while creating plant maintenance order. I would really appreciate if you provide me the menu path in customisation to make this mandatory.
Thanks

Hi Jean
I do not think you can make it mandatory while creation itself.
But, you can make it mandatory (Check Functions for setting order types->settlement rule....) for order release.

CJ20N : Settlement Rules Heritage on unique IeC WBS Element

Hi Experts,
I've customize PS for an investment project, who have a stategy for top down heritage of the settlement rules from the project definition, and an automatic generation of an only IeC (on first WBS element) when the entire project is launched from the project definition.
All settlement rules are settled to the first WBS element (WBS project), who becomes the IeC.
Heritage is OK on all WBS elements and I can see them under "Edit -> Costs -> Settlement Rule".
When I try to see my seetlement rules on the first WBS Element (WBS project), the system turn in loop and dump after 2 minutes (time over message).
In my opinion, the error comes that the system permiss to affect the settlement rule (for exemple WBS -> I/0001) on his own object (WBS ID I/0001) . They have no error message when I save the project for the heritage.
After this operation, impossible to go back under "Edit -> Costs -> Settlement Rule" to see the settlement rules of this WBS Element.
For more information, I don't want the create the heritage to level 2 or 3 of my WBS elements structure, because I don't want to loose a level (coding mask I/XXXX.XXXX.XXX.XXXX).
Does an expert have a solution to resolv my problem ?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi herieric ,
The program should not enter into an endlos loop in such case. It is rather a program error than a consulting issue. You can copy the key words from the dumps and search the notes. If there is still no suitable notes, create a customer message and ask SAP for support.
Kind regards,

Settling the costs of a parent WBS elements

Dear experts,
i have a cost project consist of 3 levels work break down structure:
level 1: a root WBS element
level 2: splited into 2 WBS elements (Production - Maintenance)
level 3: spliting each WBS element of the above level into 3 WBS elements (Service - Materials - Labour)
actual postings ONLY is against level 3 WBS elements and the costs is acomulated to level 2 and then to level 1
but my customer wants to settle ONLY level 2 WBS elements (Production - Maintenance).
so...
i maintained settlement rules only for level 2 WBS elements (Production - Maintenance)
level 3 WBS elements (Service - Materials - Labour) are assigned settlement profile
90, which has the setting "Not for settlement".
when i tried to run settlement for level 2 WBS elements (Production - Maintenance) i failed coz i got 3 "Nor relevant" and 1 "No change"
so, my question is: is it possible to settle aparent WBS element in which there's no actual costs has incurred "has no actual costs of its own", however, it only has childs WBS elements that have actual costs

If you read your post carefully you will understand what mistake you are doing. Read SAP Help and search forum regarding settlement you will find the answer for this
so, my question is: is it possible to settle aparent WBS element in which there's no actual costs has incurred "has no actual costs of its own", however, it only has childs WBS elements that have actual costs

How settlement rule will be created for Sales order with cost object

Dear Experts,
We are using product cost by sales order with valuated stock. In addition we are not using COPA
We also consume some materials at sales order level and at the end of month we want to do the result analysis and settlement for the same amount. In this case can any on explain how system will behave regarding settlement of sales order cost and what entries will get pass in the system.
In our case we have done below activities...
we have created sales order,
All production order activities completed till final GRN including month end activities
Material consumption against sales order
Result analysis executed
At the time of sales order settlement, system throwing error (Sender doesn't have valid receiver, please create settlement rule for sender object)
Then i checked in sales order there sales order settlement rule not defined.
I guess this settlement rule need be generated by system automatically. If not, please let me know the process of it.

HI kishore
the reason is that sale order always carry the revenue and production order and production period carry the cost .
cost you can settle to the Material and even management want to be settle the cost to material only in production order OR period
but in sales order when u sell the product it carry the revenue not the cost and management want see and analysis based on profitability segment are profit center level .
Prerequisites
If CO-PA is active, the system generates a settlement rule when you create the sales order. The settlement rule determines whether data is settled to other objects or other areas in Controlling. In accordance with this settlement rule, the relevant data is settled to CO-PA.
If CO-PA is not active, create a settlement rule. This settlement rule that you create manually normally contains a G/L account as a receiver (such as 399999). You can also settle costs and revenues or results analysis data to objects with revenue.
You can also settle the cost of sales calculated in results analysis to a fixed asset or a cost center. To do this, you must add to the allocation structure the results analysis cost elements under which the cost of sales is updated to the order.
The settlement rule includes a distribution rule for the sales order item. The distribution rule is made up of a settlement receiver, a settlement share, and a settlement type:
The settlement receiver (such as profitability segment or G/L account) specifies the object to which the actual costs and revenue of the sales order item are settled. The settlement receiver can be proposed through the settlement profile.
The settlement share defines the percentage or the equivalence numbers used to distribute the costs to the individual settlement receivers. The settlement share for sales order items is usually 100%. A settlement share of 100% is preset in the system.
The settlement type specifies full settlement of the sales order item. This ensures that all the data on the sales order is available for results analysis.
Settlement still takes place in each period. The revenues and the cost of sales are transferred to CO-PA by period, and the work in process and the reserves are transferred to FI.

How to make Settl. rule mandatory before release ?

Hi,
I have project with settlement to AUC and to the superior wbs elements. I want to have the settlement rule to be made mandatory (before Release) for all those WBS elements, where it will be settled to superior WBS elements. How to make this mandatory ? Is it possible through validations or is there any BAdI available for this ? I had checked for user exits, i could not find any suitable one.
thanks in advance.
Vinodh

Hi
1.For making settlement rule manditory, check with function module "CJPN_SETTLEMENT_RULES" and put into validation in OPSI t.code..
2. when settlement rule is created system status will be set to SETC. So while saving the project , you can check if the status is SETC or not and the throw the required error.
You can use BAdi = Workorder_update interface AT_SAVE.
For staus check you can use BAPI_STATUS_CHECK and pass Objnr of the WBS and check for SETC ( Sys Status = I0028).
try this options
Thanks

Settlement rule mandatory before release of Produciton order

Dear PP Gurus,

Thanks in advance,
HT

Hi Hareesh
Go to IMG - Controlling - Product cost controlling - cost object controlling - product cost by order - period end closing - settlement - create settlement rule.
in this select the appropriate settlement rule that u assigned to ur production order type.
In this, in the block "Valid Receivers" for order , select "2 settlement required".
If this is done, when u create a production order, it will ask for the settlement rule to be defined.
Hope this is helpful to u. If so please reward points.

Settlement rules not getting created

Hi,
During period end, all 2nd level WBS elements are generally settked to AuCs. I had maintained the settlement strategy in such a way that all the WBS elements below 2nd level are settled to its Superior. When i tested this in one of the Client, it worked fine whereas in the new client, when I execute CJB2, system gives the message "processed with no errors", however when I check the WBS element, settlement rules are not created. What could be the problem ?
thanks in advance.

Hi
A copy of text ( donot know anymore, where I got it):
Only the wbs element with investition profile, which has the 'manage
Auc' (technical field INVMA ), will be excluded. In this situation
the automatisch generation of settlement rules is not useful.
In other case, that the wbs element has a investition profile, but
the investition profile do not has the flag 'manage Auc' ticked, is not
considered as a accompanying measure. In this situation, a autom.
settlment rule generation can be useful, that why the program do not
exclude such wbs elementen.
Please notice, in this issue, only the customizing setting of investiti-
on profile is involved, not the settlement rules.
you can take a small modification, which remove the check of the
'invma' of inves. profile, which is programed purposefully.
include LKSRGF01    form process_block
      general checks
        if not lt_prps-imprf is initial.
          call function 'IM_TAPRF_READ'

PO number and PO qunatity for a given WBS element

hello all,
in which table does PO number and PO quantity are stored for a given WBS element...
or do i need to use any function module....
i need to use it in an ALV report...
thanks in advance.....

For service PO's or material PO's you can get only by using PR reference.
for material you will be having only one PR for One material so there is no problem with Materials.
for ref find the below screenshot
for services number of activities comes under single PR so this is some critical to bring the datafor ref find below screenshot
as mentioned in the screenshot all the service numbers will come under PR 40 line item so by using PR 40 you will be creating PO ,
Pass order(NPLNR)/W.B.S.E(PS_PSP_PNR) in EBKN get BANFN & BNFPO pass this in EKPO for service PO's package number (PACKNO) will be updated by using this go to ESLL pass package number(PACKNO) and take package (SUB_PACKNO) and pass in package number(PACKNO) you will get the service items for that PO

Check list for creating a cost element?

Hi,
Who can provide a check list for creating a cost element?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

Hi,
Cost Elements are broadly of two categories - Primary and Secondary cost elements.
In case of primary cost element a GL Account should have been created and in case of secondary cost no corresponding GL account should exist. Secondary Cost Elements are used only in Controlling Module. The transaction codes are:
KA01 - Create Primary Cost Element.
KA06 - Create Secondary Cost Element.
KA02 - Change Cost Element
KA03 - Display Cost Element
KA04 - Delete Cost Element
KA05 - Display Changes
Once transaction data is posted Cost Element cannot be deleted.
Another point in Cost Elements is defining the Cost Element category. Cost Element category determines which Cost Element category can be used for which Business Purpose. For example cost element category 1 is used for primary costs and 11 is used for revenues.
In the default account assignment tab, we can define a cost center / internal order and always the postings for that cost element will be posted to that cost object.
Thanks
Murali.

Result Analysis with transaction code KKAJ for Top level WBS element

Hi Experts,
we have four level WBS structure with level 1 and level 4 with all operative indicators active
when we are doing Result analysis by using KKAJ for level 1 WBS element, System is taking all level 4 wbs elements also into consideration.
Is there a way to run results analysis using KKAJ only for level 1 wbs elements for multiple projects, avoiding the level 4 WBS elements.
SAP version 4.6C
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance
