Proces order variance settlement posting to multiple accounts in FI

Dear,
Settlement of process order variance is controlled via GBB - AUA, where a different account can be used by valuation class. Our requirement is to post on a different account by variance category though. Any idea wheher this is possible / which user-exit?

Hello
It is not possible to post the variances to different GL accounts. However for analysis you can take the different variances to different COPA value fields.

Production Order Variance settling to GL Account

Hi SAP Gurus,
when we settle the Production Order Varainces, system posts them to FI - Price Difference Account and also settle to COPA.
I could not find the settings that will prompt the variances to flow to FI-Price difference account
Could any one tell me where is the setting for this??
Points will be awarded suitably

Hi,
First of all you would have maintained the Cost Element for the same GL as Cost Element Category 1.
Now you can go to OBYC - Automatic Account Assignment.
In PRD Key - General Modification will PRA and this GL will be assigned to PRA key.
So Whenever price diff will occur, such GL will be reflected.
The main notable Point:
Now go to GBB Key. U will find the GL for variance against AUA Key. So whenever variance calculation will be done, such GL will be reflected.
This is all about the Fetching of GL Account as variance
Now we are coming to COPA Side
As we have created Cost Element for the same GL. Now we will assign this cost element in COPA Transfer Structure
T Code is KEI1. Now you will find the Transfer Structure. Now select the relevant and see the source fields and Value fields asssigned to Cost Element. So COPA will take the effect of Variance from here.
I hope you understood the flow.
Hope to be rewarded

CO Substituion for Production order variance settlement

Hi,
In make to order production, Our client requirement was not to settle variances to sales order but directly to COPA.
We cannot use variance categories in settlement profile/PA transfer structure as we have transfer pricing setup and direct settlement of variances categories to COPA updates only legal view of COPA and not profit center view of COPA.
Therefore variance GL account was created as cost element in our case.
Now that client wants to settle variances to sales order for certain plants and directly to COPA in certain plants.
Therefore i tried with a CO substitution to clear sales order assignment for the variance GL and then in OKB9 i have set up PSG as default account assignment.
Now when i run the settlement, in debug mode i am able to see that the substitution works and clears the sales order assignment, but when i see the FI document posted, it still has SO assignment. No COPA document is triggered and a controlling document on sales order is posted.
Why does substitution not work for variance settlement in case of MTO process.

Raghu

Hi Ajay,
I used user exit OKC9 as suggested in SAP note 183250 (last paragraph) and SAP note 105024.
With the user exit, we have cleared the Sales order information and also called OKB9 as per the note 105024.
Now the settlement document is generated without Sales order assignment. A PSG is generated but no cost based COPA document. We also use account based copa. In controlling document, i can see PSG is updated as cost object against the variance GL.
Why does not Cost based COPA automatically generated.
We have FI settlement profile properly maintained. With a manual posting to this GL, i can see cost based copa document.
Accounting document before changes to user exit has following object
Dt 40600 Change in Stock, Prd Order
Ct 44760 Production Variance, Sales Order
Accounting document after changes to user exit has following objects
Dt 40600 Change in Stock, Prd Order
Ct 44760 Production Variance, Material & PSG
In the user exit, i have cleared the material from COBL, still it appears in the posting

Raghu

Production Order Variance not posting to COPA

Hi,
I am hoping someone can help.
We settle our production order variances to COPA. - usually without any problem. The production orders settle to both Material (Mat) and PSG
However this month we had a situation where for 2 order there was no settlement to COPA for the variance.
For these 2 production orders there was no settlement rule to PSG in the master data so this obviously explains why it didnt create a settlement document but my dilemma is understanding why there is no PSG settlement rule.
Through testing it appears that the PSG settlement rule is not created at the time of production order creation at all but seems to be automatically created after the execution of KKS2 and CO88.
The 2 orders that I had issue with this month were for a new material and I am able to recreate this probelm for any new Production order against this new material. So I suspect that there is something specific to this material that is prveventing the PSG settlement rule from being created.
But this is where I am stuck! I can't find any setting in material master or other area that would seem to impact this.
Any help appreciated,
Thanks,
Tracee

Hi,
First you can settle these 2 orders individually with using KO88 Transaction code and see if there is any error. Also check the settlement profile of these 2 production orders.there you can check the " variances to costing-based PA" tick is there or not.If tick is not selected there,you can select the check box and run variance calculation (KKS2) and do the settlement for these 2 production orders (KO88).
I hope this wil help you and let me know if you have any queries.

Puri.

I/C Vendor Invoice (KI) posting to multiple accounts?

Dear All.
We'd like to be able to post the results of the IV billing line item to multiple accounts based on the conditions and account determination in the IV document. No problem on this part.
The challenge is on the I/C Vendor invoice posting. Looks like you can only post to one G/L account as defined via the setup in OBCB.
We did also turn on the "Item surch./disc." in OBCE. However, it now posts the amounts in the line item separately but still to the same G/L account defined in OBCB. It looks like once you turn on "Item surch./disc.", the condition values just inherit the G/L account of the line item.
It doesn't look like you can define a seperate "EDI: Goods/services number" for each G/L account to post to in OBCB? Hoping I'm wrong and missed something though?
Otherwise, we're investigating a couple of user-exits that look like it will let us do this.
exit_sapliedi_101 & exit_sapliedi_102 both contain the idoc data as well as the document date (beleg_daten) for FB01.
Looks a little tricky though.
There's a couple of OSS notes that seem like they suggest this as well, but they also look like they've been posted many years ago.
Just wanted to double check with others to see if there was a standard or better method of doing this before going forward?
Many Thanks!

Dear Devon,
I face the same issue. Could you please explain in a bit more detail where in OBCB you used the +**** where **** is the SD billing document condition type ?
Is it in the goods/Services ID text field (V_T076I-WLTXT)?
Thank you very much!

Production order variance settlement to cost centers/internal order

Hi,
I am looking to configure the settlement of production order variances to cost centers/internal order. Is there a way to do this in the settlement profile. Would appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Ram

OKO7 will allow you to configure the Settlement Profile by selecting valid receivers.
This should be done with/or by FICO.
Then test, test, test

Order Variance Settlement to Multiple GL Accounts

Hello All,
I Have a Query and need your Expert Advice in the following issue
Scenario:
When we settle an Order (Production Order) the Variance between the Target Cost and Actual Cost will be the Variaacne (+/-) and it is posted to a P&L Account. This Variance Consists of (Material Variance + Activity Variance + Overhead Variance). My Business Requirement is to have the different Variances posted to different GL Accounts (Material Variance to One GL Account, Activity Variance to One GL Account and Overhead Variance to One GL Account).
I told my Other Team Members that it is not possible since the GL is coming from the Account determination between MM and FI and we cannot implement this Scenario.
Can any one tell me from your Experience if that is Possible and if Possible how are you handling this Scenario.
Thanks in Advance for your Replies
Best Regards,
Ravi Reddy

Dear Ravi,
As per my understanding the above scenario is not possible in Standard SAP. May be you can post this question in Controlling Forum.

Production order variance settlement( Ko88)

Hi All
I belive, this will be the account entery when we do production order settlement
Dr :PRD a/c (production variance account)
Cr: GBB-AUA or AUF( Inventory a/c in)
We are not implementing material ledger.
My question is
what is the best practice "whether to use AUA or AUF" If we are not using materail ledger?
For me it makes sense to use AUF .
Please advise me
Thanks in advance

You don't have a choice.

Production order Variance Settlement

Hi,
Can anybody tell, what configuration settings will have to be made to settle variances in production order
to sales order in COPA?
Regards
Milind Nair

1. TA : OKOA.
2. CHOOSE : SETTLEMENT PROFILE
3. SELECT SETTLEMENT PROFILE,   "PP01" FOR EXAMPLE.
4. SET ON : VARIANCES TO COSTING BASED PA.
5. SELECT PA TRANSFER STRUCTURE (BEFORE THAT YOU MUST HAVE CREATED PA TRANSFER STRUCTURE)
YOU CAN CREATE PA TRASFER STREUCTURE BY TA : OKOA
A . CHOOSE: PA TRANSFER STRUCTURE .
B. CREATE PA TRANSFER STRUCTURE. FOR EXAMPLE :
    A1- Settle production variances
C. ENTER ASSIGNMENT LINES: FOR EXAMPLE :
10     Input price variance
20     Input quantity variance
30     Resource-usage variance
40     Remaining input variance
D. FOR EACH LINE ASSIGN SOCURCE (COST ELEMENT + VARIANCE CATEGORY , f.example.) AND VALUED FILEDS.

Production Order Variance Settlement to COPA

Hi gurus,
Do i have to create the cost element for the settlement of production orders to COPA ?
When i have a negative variance i can settle correct with the cost element created.
When i have a positive variance i can not settle with the cost element created. The system ask to update the PA transfer structure with the cost element.
What do i need to do, create or not the cost element ?
Regards

Hi,
Did you run KKS1/KKS2 before settlement? If you have only execute the settlement, variances will usually not calculated automatically.

How to settle the production order variance to 3 GL account

dear all
i met a problem in the project ,the customer need see the production order variance category detail for (material,routine,overhead variance) in FI report ,so it need to settle the variance to at least 3 GL account
i don't know how to configure it ,i try to use result analyse like wip ,but go failed
do you have some suggestion
thank you

Hi ,
Through Standard SAP .. the same it not possible . Standard SAP will post the differences to one GL account ..The variance amount is not segregated..
The way out is to use report KKO0 .( Product Costing Drill Down Reports ) in CO . There are many reports available .. and you can compute the difference in CO Reports and manually make an entry in FI by manually reversing the original variance account and posting it to cost component wise variance accounts ..
To use the KKO0 report.. please perform the following tasks :-
1. Assign cost component structure in transaction OKN0 ( Date Extraction/Product Drill Down) tab.
2. Product Group Type = Material group..
3. Run KKRV after period end every month to collect the data for drill down reporting..
Please revert back for any further clarifications

Internal order settlement to G/L account

Dear All,
User has created one internal order 650002012 and the settlement profile is created settle to G/L account S882000000. this is a cost element category "1" (Loss on contract cancellation & co).
In the internal order The Responsible cost center is DA01D89998 (Validation & Eng Admin-St) the profit center for this "DA01".
In the internal order the Requesting cost center is DA26ZPSHRD (Shared Cost Center for Deltron), the profit center is "DA26"
in the settlement profile when i double click on the settlement rule, he has assigned the Cost center DA01ZPSHRD (Shared Cost Center for Ko) and the profit center is "DA01".
But when he execute the T.C "KO8G" the system is showing the error is " G/L account requires an assignement to CO object".
1. The receiver G/L account has created as a cost element. is this correct?
2. In the allocation structure do we have to select the "By cost element check box" or do we have to give the secondary cost element in the settlement cost element field.
Please give the sugessions to solve this problem.
Thanks and regards,
Rao.

It sounds like you are a little confused on how internal order settlement works. If you want the internal order to settle to a G/L account then you must enter the G/L account number in the settlement rule in the internal order. To do this, click on the settlement rule button in the order, select category G/L and enter the G/L account number. In order for you to be able to select G/L as a settlement object the settlement profile you've assigned to the order must allow this. Check the settlement profile and make sure that G/L account is listed as settlement optional or settlement required. Also check the allocation structure that is attached to the settlement profile. In the allocation structure you must have an entry under the settlement cost element for receiver category G/L. Here you should specify a cost element of type 22 as the settlement cost element.
When you make those settings you will be able to specify the receiving G/L account in the internal order. The system will then credit the internal order for the settlment amount with the credit posted on the category 22 cost element specified in the allocation structure. The debit will appear on the G/L account you specified in the internal order's settlement rule. Normally, the receiving G/L account would not be setup as a cost element. if you do set it up as a cost element you will need to use an automatic account assignment setting (OKB9) to specify the cost object that it will post to.
thanks,

Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI

Hi...
I have one query reference to Variance calculation for production order with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
I am working on Varaint configuration with strategy 25(Make-to-order for configurable material) with requirement class 046.
I have created sales order ref. to configurable material,subsequently created planned order & then converted to production order.
In production order settlement receiver is SDI(Sales document item).
While doing production confirmation ,variance has been created.
Now during variance calculation KKS2, I have got error message as no suitable settlement rule found for object Order no.
Is there any way to come out of this?Or variance calculation KKS2 is not applicable with settlement receiver as SDI(Sales document item).
Pl. guide

Hi
In case of non valuated material, concept of variance does not apply...
Variance is Actual Cost - Cost of Goods receipt posted in stock.. If the later value is zero, your entire actual cost is variance... That is one way of saying it
But, in SAP, var not calculated in case of non valuated material and that makes sense as well.. Since you are in MTO scenario, it would make sense to analyse costs vs revenues @ sale order level as each SO will be unique in itself
