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!

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

Sales order settlemet- Errors-VA88

Dear All,
While execute the transactions VA88- Sales order settlement , I am getting the below problems.Kindly I request you to look into this issue and do needful action.
I will assign good points.
1. Complete allocation structure A1
Message no. KD503
Diagnosis
During settlement, the system puts the sender debits into groups
     (assignments), which are settled using the same settlement cost element.
     The settlement assignment is made in the allocation structure, which is
     stored in the settlement rule for the sender (under settlement
     parameters).
     Cost element 413001 cannot be assigned to a settlement cost assignment
     in allocation structure A1, and therefore it cannot be assigned to a
     settlement cost element.
Procedure
Possible solutions are as follows:
o   If the posting under cost element 413001 was made to the sender
because of an incorrect entry, and you can reverse the posting, and
do not need to update the allocation structure. You only need to
reverse the incorrectly assigned posting before repeating the
settlement. Exception: For an investment measure with a line item
settlement, you need to extend the allocation structure, even after
the reversal.
If the posting was made correctly, you can do the following:
a) You can assign a different allocation structure to the sender:
     In the master data maintenance for the sender, choose
     "Settlement rule -> Goto -> Settlement parameters" and then
     enter a different allocation structure.
     If necessary, also check whether the correct allocation
     structure is entered in the settlement profile. The allocation
     structure is defaulted in the settlement profile when you
     create sender master data or when you maintain the settlement
     rule.
-   You can update allocation structure A1

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

Settlement of Sale Order issue.

Dear friends
I am getting the following error while settling the Sale Order in VA88.
Please guide me in this issue, how to handle?
There are no accrued amounts; settlement is not possible.
Message no. KD256
Diagnosis
The sender has a results analysis key, but no accrued values.
Either the accrual was not yet started for the sender, or the values to be settled from the accrual equal zero.
Note
Actual costs are only settled once the sender is technically completed or finally delivered.
This applies to
Projects that cannot carry revenues
In Service Management for sales order production to the indicator (Calculate WIP for orders in sales order production) set in the accrual version for
Production orders
Internal orders with no revenues
Orders with no revenues
In Service Management for engineer-to-order production to the indicator (Calculate WIP for orders in engineer-to-order production ) set in the accrual version for
Internal orders with no revenues
Orders with no revenues
In Service Management to the indicator (Calculate WIP for internal and service orders with no revenues) set in the accrual version for
Internal orders with no revenues
Orders with no revenues
To the indicator (Calculate WIP for production orders without settlement to material) set in the accrual version for
Production orders without settlement to material
Procedure
1. If necessary, start the accrual calculation for the sender
2. Restart settlement

Now I am getting another error.
Complete PA transfer structure ZR
Message no. KD514
Diagnosis
There is no value field assignment for cost element 911400 / *_variance category COSR_* in PA transfer structure ZR, or
PA transfer structure ZR has no assignments, or
No "Origin" is maintained for the assignments in PA transfer structure ZR (cost element group and, if applicable, variance category)
When I see the Variance Category I didnt find any Variance Category COSR?
What could be the reason.
Thanks in advance

MTO - Settlement of Sales Order to COPA

Hi,
We have a scenario wherein production order is created with reference to Sales order.
No standard / Sale order BOM is maintained. As such no cost estimate is available for either Header material or sales order. Header material does not have any value.
Goods are issued to production order with reference to such sales order, as special stock. So consumption posted to Sales order.
Revenue is captured on Sales order.
At this point of time, can I settle the sales order through VA88. What all will it settle.
Is RA excution a must for VA88 settlement?
Please suggest.

HI,
if you need to have WIP-value posting, result analysis is a must before settlement.
Best regards, Christian

Change in item category and settlement of old sales order not possible

Hi
I have to settle sales orders in VA88 and transfer data to COPA. I want to do directly without result analysis. So, in the item category, I removed the result analysis key. And the settlement goes thru.
My issue is that there are orders in July 2010 which have to be settled, but it does not work since the changes in item category has happened this month in Aug 2010 and the July sales order are also invoiced.
Pl suggest a solution to settle the July sales order to COPA.
Thanks
kamala

Hi Kamala
I see only one possibility... The old sales order consists of some GL accounts posted in it which is not mapped in the allocation structure...
Alloc Str has 2 parts - i.e. One, it consists of a group of cost elements it has to handle and Two, it consists of the valid settlement receivers like PSG, CTR, etc
You say, this alloc str works well with new sales orders.... The 2nd part of alloc structure (i.e. valid receivers) applies equally to all sales orders.. But what can really differentiate the 2 sales orders is the cost elements posted on it...
I dont foresee any other posslbe reason

Non Valuated sales order RA Analysis...

Hi Experts-
Please clear my confusion regarding...
1.My scenario is salea order is a cost objective with non valuated stock....In this STANDARD COST ESTIMATION IS REQUIRED OR NOT FOR FInished produsts.
2.If I settele the Production order to my sales order item, At the month end i will run RA key for sales order level in that time what are the entries will pass?
3.In My RA analysis Actual costs are different from working progress.
Please give u r suggestions.....
Please some one tell month end flow of values in MTO Non valuated stock
Thanks
Chandu

Hi-
Below are my answers to some of your questions:
1. No need to run STD cost for FG? in case of non-valuated stock?
Answer is NO. You dont have to run STD cost for FG in case of non-valuated sales order stock.
4.It is possible to settele the Variance to sales order in non-valuted scenario?
There will be no variances in MTO. With a non valuated sales order stock, the system does not report all costs of multilevel BOMs on a manufacturing order in which individual requirements semifinished products or raw materials are used. Variance calculation is therefore unreliable and unsupported.
3.Please tell me month end process of MTO scenario
Production order wip calculation (kkao)
Production order settlements (co88)
Sales order wip calculation (kkak)
Sales order settlements (va88)
i would suggest reading sap documentation on make to order environment as that answers most of your questions.
hope this helps.

VA88 - Error list of settlement run displays irrelevant sales orders

Hi All,
This is a problem relating to transaction VA88 for settlement of sales orders into COPA. The error list of the settlement run is unnecessarily long since it also includes old, irrelevant sales orders that have no postings since the last VA88 run.
'Old' sales orders without recent postings on them are considered in the settlement run despite having the indicator "check trans. data" switched on in the VA88 selection screen.
What could be the reason???
Ideally, system should ignore the irrelevant sales orders (those without any transactional postings since the last settlement) if we select the "check transactional data" option in the VA88 selection screen
Any suggestions, thoughts, solutions would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Soumya
Edited by: Soumya Bhattacharya on Mar 17, 2009 10:42 AM

Hi Soumya
Please see below. Transaction data checks are not made in the following situations, even
if the indicator is set:
1. The sender has a results analysis key, and an accrual calculation
    was already executed. In Customizing for accrual calculation, line
    item updates are not active for a version relevant for settlement.
2. The sender has a variance key and variances have already been
    determined.
3. The sender is a capital investment measure and has the technically
    completed status. Alternatively, the sender is an investment measur
    and the settlement was started with processing type 3.
4. The settlement rule was changed since the last settlement.
5. There is a valid distribution rule for fixed amounts.
6. Both a periodic distribution rule and an overall distribution rule
    have been defined for the settlement of costs with the same origin,
    and only the periodic distribution rule was used for the last
    settlement.
Basically you should see if any of these scenarios exist in your case. Item no. 6 looks like the most probable cause. Please check them again.
Hope this helps. Let me know.

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
