Open Work Order settlement - KO8G or KO88

Hi,
I am facing an issue with open work order settlement using KO8G or KO88.
We are on 6.0 and PSM turned and New GL activated with a document splitting on fund mandatory flag turned on.
When open work orders undergo WIP calculation through KKAI, it shows the the calculated amount in the GL account but when we execute KO88 or KO8G to settle this open work order amount to the GL, it gives me the below error
GLT2201 "Balancing field "Fund" in line item 001 not filled"
On debugging the KO88, its seen that the field fund does not flow in from the work order.
This means that both my P&L accounts and my balance sheet accounts that offset the WIP posting does not have the fund field (which is a mandatory field for posting any document in the system).
Has anyone come across such a situation?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pradeep

Ashok,
Thanks for the reply.
We have a user exit to populate the order during its creation. this means the fund field is already residing on the order. so during settlement process, closed orders dont have a problem but when open orders are subject to settlement i.e WIP settlement, the cost on the order is not transferred to the GL account because of the fund missing as our financial statements should be balances by fund.
Do you think an user exit can suffice this ? have you ever tried or come across such a scenario.
Thanks
Pradeep

Hey Vanessa,
Sorry i have been really busy with work off late. I just got a moment and wanted to thank you for the help.
I found a solution for it, we had FMDERIVE default the fund on the accounts used in WIP settlement as they are dedicated for those process.
The cost is picked from the order and deposited on the P&L account which is now attached to the fund and this is further transferred to the balance sheet account with the fund information.
Problem solved.
Do you see any other implications on this?
Thanks again.

Tracking the component changes - Open work order

Hi
We have been using special work order type, it is an open work orders. Was created for adding the small consumable and do the time writing for small jobs. The users are instructed to use only for consumable material and time writing job. But how ever the user who have acces to change the workorder are adding those material with high value. I want to trach who has ordered this changes is there any standard way to check the order.
If any changes made to the component list it will display the same reservation number which the warehouse will issue the goods, I would like to know each time item added to the component list by different user there ID or the name i should find.
Thanks
Mujeeb

Hi Peter,
Yes we can see the material reserverd against the person who is taking the material from the warehouse.
But the issue is while adding the material in the work order does not show who is the person adding the material to the workorder, it will go to the person who created the workorder to the same reservation.
For my issue is there any standard way or we have to go for development please let me know.
Thanks,
Mujeeb

Defaulting G/L account in work order settlement rule

Hello,
I have set my work order settlement profile, the default object to be G/L. However, in the equipment master record, at the Organization tab (account assignment group), i don't see any field for G/L account.
When i create settlement rule with default, i get error that rule cannot be created with default.
Where can i enter the G/L account in the equipment master to enable the auto settlement rule creation?

you can always explain the concept of FI account through Cost Center and CO account through Cost Element from Plant Maintenance and FI/CO organisation point of view and in relation to business process.
As you cant define in master data you cant get it automatically copied into settlement rule and hence have to maintain it manually as system dont know which GL to use as settlement receiver as not maintained in master data.

Work order settled without functional area

Hello All,
We are getting an issue here, business is trying to settle a workorder by posting it through KO8G.
When the posting is done we cannot see the Functional area on the Debit Line (40), and the credit line has the work order, profit center and functional area. As the debit line does not have functional area, the data does not match in BI.
Could anyone please elaborate how can we get the FA on both the lines.
Thanks in Advance,
Tushar Nerlekar

When you issue inventory to service order, the journal entry is
Dr Consumption + Production Order (Functional area derived from order type)
Cr Inventory (B/S account doesn't need CO object assignment)
When the order settles, the accounting entry is:
Dr Consumption + Cost Center (Functional area derived from cost center master data)
Cr Consumption + Production Order (Functional area derived from order type)
In Iw33, check in Go To -> Settlement Rule at header level what is the settlement receiver?

BAPI to Re-Open Work Order

Dear all,
Does anybode know of a BAPI that could re-open a work order (cancel tech completion)
Thanks,
John.

Hi,
Immediately after IBAPI_ALM_ORDER_TECO_RESET, it may help to call BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN (with SAVE method) followed by BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.

Work order settlement issue

Hi
I am not an expert in Work orders and appreciate your input.
A work order has been settled to a Sales order ( I can't understand the logic behind settling to a Sales Order). The Profit centre assigned to the sales order is wrong. I.e. they need it to be the same as that in the work order.
1) Is it possible to reverse the settlement and
2) change the profit centre in the Sales order
3) Change the settlement rule of the work order
The user informed the reason to settle the work order is just merely to close the work order. Is it mandatory to settle the work order in order to close. If so could you please explain the logic behind the requirement?
Thanks & Regards
Nadini

We have tried to process the Settlement for FCOs Service Work Orders and Warranty Contracts but we get the following error message
"Account 6810100 requires an assignment to a CO object".
I have detected that this GL account has been created as cost element from January 2010, but as far I know the GL accounts that belong to settlement process must not be created as cost element.
Now pls help how to resolve this problem

Prakash Sharma

Hi
You are right ..
I checked cost element 6810100 user made following change ,
In cost element master from 01.01.2010 to 31.12.9999 .- Cost element category is- 1 Primary costs/cost-reducing revenues and earlier from 01.01.2000 to 31.12.2002 Cost element category is- 22 External settlement and also in default account assignment cost center is not assigned.
I just want to know error is coming because default account assignment is not given and also because of change in cost element category

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,
Jeff

Thanks 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,
Jeff

PM Work order conversion

We have redeployment project from 4.6c to ECC6.0, the client wants to migrate the work orders both open and closed to new system. I understand that as a normal process we migrate the Open work orders. Has any one migrated the closed work orders?

Hi Ranganathan,
You can use Tcode IW61 to create Historical Orders. The historical orders has no goods movements & settlement. You can directly enter the actual cost during historical order creation.Those orders can be used for cost analysis.
