Old orders settled in current period PP/PA variances

Hi Experts
I have a situation were I ran transaction CO78 to delete old Production orders. After running the current month variances, it it calculated these and settled settled old (2007/2008/2009/2010) orders into October 2011.
The only thing I can think of is that it was the change done in 2007 that set it to FUL settlement and not PER settlement. This was a change in the settlement rule by SAP in about 2007 and then I think that is when I ran C078 it 'activated' old not settled orders.
I reversed all settlements and eventually after reversing individual orders it reversed them, but then I tried to settle them in test mode and it said there is nothing to settle. After settling one order again live, it had nothing to settle. When trying to reverse it, it said settlement can only be reversed after last usage which is 2007
This did not happen in the test system.
Please help
Dawn

Hi Naresh,
Many thanks for the reply,
Can you please tell me while changing the status of Production Order from released to close, where we need to put the closing date
Because as such I do not find any closing date field on Production Order screen

Sales order settlement to different periods

Hello,
I need to settle costs/expenses to a G/L account from a sales order. The expense is fully booked in the first month but I need to settle it periodically for a whole year, so 1/12 of the total cost for the next 12 month.
I´d like to use the distibution rules in the settlement rule of the sales order. Is there a way to create all the 12 rules when creating the order or do I have to extend the rule each month. The problem I currently have when creating all 12 rules upfront is that the VA88 transaction automatically considers the full amount and posts it all in one period.
If this is not possible, maybe there is an automatic program/job that I could use to do a mass update of all settlement rules I have for sales orders.
Thanks a lot for your answer

Hi,
What is the business rational to have a 2 step settlement to COPA?

Costs of previous period not getting settled in current period ?

Dear All,
Scenario - Ours is an investment project. User has forgotten to settle costs in previous financial period i.e. 2007. And is now trying to run the settlement via CJ88. Since the financial year/period has already been closed , the system is throwing error as shown below -
"First settle items from previous year in previous year 2007: 400031819/001
Message no. AW624 "
We cannot open the period .
Tell me how to resolve above issue so that user can post the costs.
thanks in advance

hi friend.
kb11n cant be used here as this is used only for repostings, and this is not required in this scenario,
i suppose you are getting the error message: AW624 : first settle the items of previous year.
this error comes when you create a wbs and you are using that wbs as a AUC and posting the expences to that AUC and finally you capitalize that asset to final asset through CJ88 settlement.
when the capitalization date lies in the next year where in you have the expences posted to that are in previous year.the system dose not allow you to do that as that period is closed. postings cant happen in the previous period thats closed.to rectify this issue go to OBA5 and give the selection AW and select the number 624 and in online and batch column give W. After giving this settings save it and you will be able to perform the settlement.
this will resolve your issue.

Hi,
Production order settlement is done to capture the variance and the WIP to the header material of production order. On execution of the settlement the entries for FI will be posted with respect to variance and WIP

Cut off period for sales order settlement

Dear Expert,
Client using SAP from last 13 years. Client implemented MTO with valuated stock and activated the COPA.
Now we are re implementing the COPA. since go live(from last 13 years ) they are not doing any sales order settlements and not using COPA.
In sales order RA key(Requirement class) is assigned and Settlement type is 'FUL'.
Now client has decided to use COPA and going to live with new structure on September 1 2014.
I have do the below changes
1. Removed RA key(Not required as per business requirement)
2. Changed settlement type from 'FUL' to PER., here i am having some questions. Client don't want to settle previous orders(before September). as per business requirement they will use one sales order for long time (3 to 4 months). after going live client will settle the sales orders at that time system will consider all sales orders. How can i avoid selection of all sales orders. i want to settle only sales orders having transactions during one month (September)
To avoid this problem now its self i am moving this changes to Production client (RA key removed and Settlement type change), still i am not confident i will get as expected, because at the time of Sales order settlement system will consider all old sales orders.
Can anyone please suggest beat way to handle this issue...
Thanks.

Hi Chandra,
Check the Below SAP Note
174815
- Selection parameter in VA88 or RKO7VA88
Symptom
During the settlement of sales and distribution documents with Transaction
VA88 or report RKO7VA88, you can only select according to the SD document number
or the sales organization.
For example, you cannot select by plant or SD
document type.
Other Terms
VA88
Reason and Prerequisites
The problem occurs due to a previous program design.
Solution
With the attached advance correction, you can also select according to the
plant or the SD document type in report RKO7VA88.The previous restrictions apply
for Transaction VA88.
To correct the error in advance, proceed as
follows:
1. First implement Notes 174502 and 182735.
2. Using Transaction SE11, add field VBAUART (data element AUART) to
structures LKO74 and RKASS. Activate the structures.
3. Add the following parameter to the interface of function module
SD_DOCUMENT_OBJNR_GET (Transaction SE37):
a) Import parameter:I_WERKS (reference field VBAP-WERKS) and I_AUART
(reference field VBAK-AUART). Both parameters should be indicated as
'optional'.
b) Export parameter:E_WERKS (reference field VBAP-WERKS) and E_AUART
(reference field VBAK-AUART).
4. Implement the source code corrections.
5. Maintain the text elements for report RKO7VA88 (Transaction SE38, Goto
--> Text elements --> Selection texts):Text 'Sales document type' for
VBAUART and 'Plant' for WERKS.
Afterwards, also implement Note 210011.

Production order settlement period

Dear Friends,
I have settled my production order in period 4 (Let us assume). After some time ( let us assume 15 days) i wants to reverse my order. But by the time of 15 days my period has been changed from 4 to 5. I have forgotten on which period that particular order has been settled, so that i can reverse the order on the same period.
Could anybody guide me , How to display production order settlement period?
Thanks

Hi Mahesh,
I could not find any period related information under change management option.
But i have found the information under "Header----Settlement rule". Here we can find the details about settlement period (First used and last used).

Internal Order Settlement Reversal Prior Year KO88

Hi,
I am on ECC 6.   We have been asked if it is possible to reverse prior year settlements for internal orders in the current year and period.                                                                The current year reversals are not the issue. These orders settlements in need of revision were made in the prior year and the periods are all closed and not to be opened as the financials are complete for that year.
Presently, there are two steps : 1) Reverse the current year periods and resettle using revised settlement rules.in the current year open period.                                                                                2) Prior year corrections made through a manual journal entry also posted in the current period.
Goal is to eliminate the manaul entry for prior year correction due to revised order settlement rules
Any thoughts on this issue would be appreciated.

The only reason to resettle the orders is that the "settlement rules" were revised in the current fiscal year . In the current fiscal year , the settlements for each settled period (closed period) are reversed and then resettled in the current open period using the revised settlement rules. However, the issue involves these same orders had costs in the previous fiscal year and were settled originally in that previous fiscal year with the old settlement rules. This is a closed fiscal year and all periods are closed.
Any thoughts on a system approach to effect the settlement rule change crossing two fiscal years rather than manual entries for prior fiscal year settlement rule impact as a two step process the first step being the current fiscal year resettlements and the second step the manual entry for previous year impact ?

Current period in Accounting 1 view of Material Master

Dear Experts,
In Accounting 1 view of Material Master there is a current period, now it is 12 2009.
Is it possible to make it 11 2009, if yes how to do it.
Please help if you have solution. it is very crucial for me.
Thank you for your support.
Regards,
Zusen

Hi,
Please read the Solution part of note 487381. There is still a few things need to be carry out before you can proceed
with the initialization :
Bear in mind that the initialization of a posting period has the
following effects concerning the period stocks:
    o The initialization of the posting period to a previous or to any
       posting period may lead to the loss of the information of the
       inventory balances of the previous periods.The book value of the
       current posting period is taken as the basis also for values of
       the previous period in this case.
       If you want to continue working with this new posting period, in
       addition you should execute report Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES attached so
       that history entries greater or equal to the new posting period
       will be deleted.
    o If you have to briefly reset the posting period by one period
       (for example, postings must still be posted in a certain period)
       just to make a correction (and for a small number of postings),
       you should initialize the posting period back again to the old
       value so that the values of the previous period will not be lost
       (you should forbid postings when carrying out corrections).
       However, afterwards the values of the previous period or the
       history records (as of Release 4.5) of the materials posted in
       this case are inaccurate.
       You should NOT execute report Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES in this case.
    o However, if the posting period is generally reset again to a
       previous posting period and if postings were made during this
       time, all information on the inventory balance of the previous
       periods is lost.
       As of Release 4.5a, you should use the cited correction report
    Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES in order to delete history records that are
    more current than the current posting period.Otherwise, it can
    result in deviations (inconsistencies) for the update of the
    history records.
o Important! If there are open physical inventory documents that
    have status 'counted' or for which indicator 'Freeze inventory
    balance' has been set, you should reject these if they refer to a
    previous period or have been created in the former previous
    period.The inventory difference to be posted can be determined
    from the current book value of the previous period and the book
    quantity frozen in the physical inventory document (ISEG-BUCHM)
    and does not match the inventory balance of the previous period
    that is currently valid.

Error while running Internal Order Settlement (KO88)

Any suggestion please.

In production Order maintain Settlement type as Full Settlement.
In CO01 Create production Order or CO02 Change production order go to
Header -
> Settlement Rule
Maintain Category, Receiver, Percentage, FUL (as settlement type)
Change settlement type to FUL if it is PER.
PER Settlement Type - Only settles the cost incurred on the posting period
FUL Settlment Type - Settles all the cost incurred after the previous costing run

Error while doing investment order settlement

Dear all,
My client has not settled certain line items in the
previous year for some Investment orders. Now when he
is carrying out settlement (KO88), for the current
period, he is getting error message " AW 624"(first
settle items from the previous year in the previous
year). How can he settle previous years item in the
current year since FI & CO periods are all closed for
prev. year.
The settlement rule is AUC in this case.
Thanks in adv.
Vijaya

Hi
As per note 82514:
If you simply want to settle the unsettled values from the previous year
in the current year, proceed as described in Notes 425601 and 819197. If
settlement for the previous year is no longer possible, due to concluded
fiscal years in FI and CO, or the reporting problems described above
have to be avoided due to settlement in the previous year, settlement in
the current fiscal year is then particularly necessary.
As far as I know, if note 425601 is fully implemented, AW624 should
become editable in OBA5. Could you please check if the coding has been
correctly applied? Especially below steps need to be done manually:
As a prerequisite for Transaction OBA5, you must first of all implement
the program corrections of note 425601 and insert the following
table entries :
o As of Release 4.6: Use Transaction SM31 to include application
       area 'AW' into table V_T100SA.
o Start Transaction SM31 to include the following entry in table
       T100S:
       'Application area    MsgNo    Allowed      Standard   Switch off'
        AW                  624      EWI          E           'X'

KO88 is a Period end activities, after each month nend you have to mandatorily run KO88 settlement.

Dear Sadasivan,
Will you explain in details, we have gone through the suggested path, where there is only two defaul rules
PP1 - Production Full Mat. Settlement
PP2- Production Periodic Settlement
Actually we want to settle the production order variance as a financial variance through cost center, we don't want to settle this variance to the materail. Currently while doing the settlement, system posting the journal entry as
Inventory Account   Dr.
To COGM               Cr.
We want the accounting entry as
Price Variance       Dr.
   To COGM
