CCS Details are not getting updated to COPA in Sales Order Settlement(VA88)

Dear Experts,
Our scenario is MTO with valuated material.
1. Production order is tagged to Sales Order.
2. Production order is settled to Material and variance is getting posted to COPA.
3. At the time of Delivery, COGS Debit (Cost Object- Sales Order), Credit - Inventory.
4. At the time of Billing, Accounting Document is getting generated, COPA document is not getting generated.
5. We are not executing WIP. (as per Business process)
6. Settlement is done thru transaction code VA88. COPA Document is getting generated.
I am facing the following issues in the above MTO process.
1. At time of sales order settlement thru VA88, In COPA, only COGS is getting as updated with one value field i.e. Material Cost. Cost Component data (Material Depreciation, Labor etc..) is not getting updated to COPA.
2. When I settle the Sales Order thru VA88, Billing Quantity is not getting updated to COPA though Quantity field mapping is done properly.
Please help me how to resolve the above issues.
Note: Same Cost Component Structure, we are using for Make to Stock scenario. Cost Component Data is getting updated Properly to COPA (at the time of Billing)
Regards,
vgl

Hi
1. CCS (Cost Comp Split) wont be updated to COPA if you settle via sale order.. In sale order, COGS cost element is posted.. the same will get settled to COPA as one single value...
In MTS, the CCS gets updated to COPA upon billing because of the "valuation" strategy customization... Billing posts to COPA in that case, COPA gets Sales Qty and it is valuated with CCS to give you the break up.. But, in your case, Billing is not posting to COPA, but to sales order.. hence, there is no qty flow into COPA upon billing.. thats why you dont get CCS for MTO
2. The sales qty should be updated to COPA upon VA88.. For this, make the following settings in your PA transfer structure which is used during VA88
1. Go to KEI1, Select your PA transfer structure...
2. Add an assignment line in it... Check on "Qty Billed/Delivered" in the assignment line
3. In the Tab "Value Field" below "source", assign Qty Field
Now when you settle, it should update qty as well

Order Settlement (Ko88) Vs. Sales Order Settlement (VA88)

We would like to know what are the advantages and disadvantages of Production Order Settlement versus Sales Order Settlement.
What are the benefits between one and the other?
Please advice,
Thanks in advance,
Rio

Hello,
Thank you for replying.
We are an MTO Semiconductor manufacturing shop, High volume. somewhat repetitive but not frequent.
We have two clients:
Client 1 - Uses Standard Costing and Settles Production Orders to the Material itself.
Client 2 - Uses Actual Costing and Settles Production Orders to Sales Orders (automatic) then Settles Sales Orders to Profitability Analysi.
I'm hearing SAP does not recommend the process from Client 2 "Sales Order Settlement" because of the high volume of sales documents. still can't confirm this.
I would like to find out the following:
What are the Pros and Cons of Production order Settlement vs. Sales Order Settlement.
What are the reasons why one type of settlement is chosen over the other?
Also, I found some data from SAP Labs which relates to an Old Version of SAP, so I would like to know if this process is still current with Version 6.0
"...Settlement of the production order to the sales order is normally not required. The sales order item automatically picks up the cost incurred on the production order.
The production order must only be settled when:
- The production order is in a different company code than the sales order.
- The production order is a collective order
The sales order product cost processing will only pick up the cost on the top-level of a collective order, so the costs of the lower-level production orders must be settled to the highest level of the collective order..."
Please advice,
Rio

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.

Product Costs by Sales Order - Settlement Options?

Hello All -
I am trying to understand if I need to settle to a sales order (SDI) or directly to material (MAT) or to COPA (PSG).
If i look at my sales order, it has item category ZPSF, which product costs by sales order configuration shows a requirement class ZKE. ZkE has a valuation of M, which means separate valuation of reference to sales document/project.
Does this mean I need to settle to sales order first?
Then i run vA88 to settle sales order to copa?
if ZKE valuation is blank, does that mean its not valuated? I have read on other sap help pages that means it is valuated. Please clarify.
also, when does one directly settle to MAT? what scenarios? this confuses me.
Thanks!

I'll give this a try. When working in a make-to-order environment there are 2 settings in the requirments class that you must consider in determining how to settle the costs (and maybe the revenue as well). The first setting is the account assignment category. In the standard system "E" is used to designate the sales order as a cost collector. "M" is used to if you don't want the sales order to be a cost collector. Whether the sales order is a cost collector or not will determine your settlement options.
The second critical field is the valuation setting. If you set it to "M" then the stock assigned to the sales order will be valuated (by valuated I mean that once the goods are produced they will be held in inventory as sales order stock with a value). If you leave the valuation field blank then the stock assigned to the sales order will be held in inventory without a valuation.
If the sales order is not a cost collector then the cost to manufacture the order will be collected in your production order and the settlement rule for the production order will be to the material you are producing. Since the material has a valuation, the costs collected in the production will be reduced by the material's valuation once it is received into finished goods inventory. Any remaining costs are settled to wip or variance based on the production order's status and the RA key and variance key settings.
If you have set the sales order as a cost collector then the production order costs can either settle to the finished material or to the sales order. If you are using valuated sales order stock you would normal have the costs settle to the material and the production order would behave very much like the previous example. If you are not using valuated stock then you would need to settle the costs to the sales order and all the production costs would accumalte in the sales order.
If you are using the sales order as a cost collector than you will probably want to settle the sales order as well. During the sales order settlement you have the option of settling the cost and revenue assigned to the sales order to COPA. The settlement profile along with the RA key assigned to the sales order controls how these are settled.

hello Lakshmipathi,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I tried to change the requierement class in order to put one with special stock E as you explained, but i still have my weird schedule line. When i put the item in the order it is 0 stock for today, but stock find in 12 days either if there is stock or no(unrestricted stock i mean).
If i change the RDD in more than 12 days the stock is available for the date requested.
If you have an idea of what could be wrong because on my case i want the schedule line to be at 0 while the sales order reservation has not been processed (via MB1B/412/E) and once the stock movement is done the schedule line has to be find.
I dont know if im clear enought..
To be more clear, i want the schedule line based on the "sales order stock" and not on the "unrestricted stock".
thanks for your help!

COPA - Sales order settlement

Dear Gurus,
what is the implication of VA88- sales order settlement. Is there any significance of these settlement in COPA.
What is the accounting entry that gets triggered when we run VA88?
Regards
Roy

Hi Anu
Yes, in your case, all the values would settle absolute i.e. +ve and you can make out the desired situation in reports....
I am pasting a summary below which would help you in understanding the sign logic between FI/COPA for diff cost ele catg
12: Credit in FI = Minus in COPA (i.e. Cr memo/returns)
      Debit in FI = +ve in COPA
11: Credit in FI = +ve in COPA
      Debit in FI = Minus in COPA (i.e. Cr memo/returns)
01: Credit in FI = Minus in COPA
      Debit in FI = +ve in COPA

Sales order settlemet-VA88

Helow Gurus,
Where we assign settlement profile for sales order settlement in T.code VA88 ,
Because, when I execute T.Code VA88 for Actual settlement:sales order systems gives the message "Create settlement cost element for receiver category type PSG "eventhough i have created and assigned settllement cost element for receiver type PSG in T.Code OKO6.
If u need amy clarification from this ,please get back to me.
Please treat it as an Urgent
Warm Regards,
Kumar.D

Hi, Kumar,
The linkage is as following.
In SO item, you have material and item category, which can determine proper requirement type and is maintained in IMG. You can configure the rule how material MRP strategy or item category + material MRP type determine the requirement type. And in OVZH and OVZG, you define requirement type and requirement class. The last step is to set default settlement profile in requirement class.
The related configuration is at "IMG->CO->PC->CO OBJ->PC by SO->Control of Sales-Order-Related Production/Product Cost by Sales Order"
The online help for this part is clear enough.
For previous settlement, you can view it individually in VA88. In the menu, you can find previous period settlement button.
Good luck!

Statistic condition values not updated during Sales order Settlement

Hi,
In our client we have different Price condition types for based on scenario wise. Ex: Domestic Sales (ZPR1) and Export Sales ZPR2. I have maintained separately value fields for each price condition types.
We are booking some financial charges, and interest on working capital etc., this cost we need to transfer to COPA each Material wise based on sales revenue.
For this purpose we have created one COPA Assessment Cycle. Tracing factor is Sales Revenue and receiver is Materials.
In COPA Assessment cycle we can give only one base means ZPR1 related value field or ZPR2 related value field.
For this reason we have created one new statistic condition type, what is amount there in ZPR1 that amount will updated automatically in statistic condition place and so that we can give once one trance factor in COPA Assessment Cycle. We have assign this statistic condition all pricing procedure
Now my problem is in MTS scenario statistic condition values updated correctly. But in MTO scenario sales order settlement time statistic condition values not updated.
So is it possible update during sales order settlement time statistic condition values.
Please give me suggestion.
Regards,
Thiru

Hi Ajay Sir,
As you said is correct.
But in our client we have around 9 Plants and each plant manufacturing product are different. Client Requirement is in COPA Report they need see each product wise sales revenue. In this way we mapped product wise value field. System already mapped one guy in this way earlier. Now I am doing some changes for relevant to month end activities.
Some financial changes transfer to COPA each plant wise on Material. Here sender is cost center and receiver is Material. Base is Sales Revenue.
Please suggest me is there any alternative.
Regards,
Thirumalesh .

How to post sales quantity to COPA in sales order settlement?

I am facing one problem while sales order settlement. I am settling sales order to COPA (PSG) and while settlement I am not getting sales quantity in COPA.
Other value fields like Revenue(ERLOS), Cost (VRPRS), Discount etc. are getting posted properly into the COPA.
I have done the configuration in PA transfer structure for above settlement. Please advice if anyother setting is missing.
Thanks & Regards,
Yatin

Thanks for reply,
SD Qty.field 'FKIMG'(Invoiced Quantity) has been assiged to COPA value field 'ABSMG' (Sales quantity) in KE4M.
Valuation strategy is also assiged to SAP standrad qty.field ABSMG(Sales quantity).
I have also assigned value field ABSMG(Sales quantity) in PA transfer structure.
Still I am not able to get the quantity field in sales order settlement to COPA.
Please advice if anyother thing needs to check.

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
