Settlement of Work Order

Hi All ,
Is it possible to settle a work order on WBS Activity Element.
I am able to settle it on WBS Activity but not on Activity element.
Rahul.

HI Rahul
You can settle the order in Activity Element.
Activity element comprises of Internal processing , External processing , Costs and Service
How to do this ?
Create a Network, under network you will have activities, under activities you have create Activity elements.... It resembles same as activites...
Enter a short text... enter the require fields... then...
Select the activity element, click Edit - Cost - Settlement Rule... Maintain the settlement rule for order...
I hope this can be done..

Unable to settle PM work order

Hi,
We have done settlement for a PM work order successfully with transaction KO8G.
But still it shows in the open settlement list -Transaction s_alr_87013127.
Please advice.
Regards,
Pratap

Please take a look at the work order, if the material and labor cost is associated to it correctly...
Please check the settlement profile for the same....check for the settlement object...check for the status of the work order (not on the report but on the order)
Make sure everything is correct, when using KO88, fill in all the necessary parameters for the order you and then from the menu bar select "EXTRAS", it has the option of running the trace...
From your message, looks like the settlement profile and the work order do not conform...either its that or there is no cost attached to the work order...

Automatic settlement for work orders.....Plant Maintenance....

Hello everyone,
In plant maintenance, does anyone know how to setup automatic settlement rule assignment for work orders? We know how to do it for internal orders already but the concept doesn't work for work orders. We are on release 4.6C
Thanks,
Chris

hi
while maintaining the settlement profile you can define the default oject categors as CTR and in the equipment master you have to specify the cost center, and if you create maintenance order then settlement rule will be automatically created
if you want some specific cost center as default irrespectiv of equipment then you have to use the customer exit
IWO10027 User exit: Generate user-defined settlement rule

Hi Kiran,
The error message clearly says that "Cost Center validity starts from 01.10.2014" i.e. in the future period.
Change the cost center from period in the past date and try.

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

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

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.

Work order( maintainence order) settlement

hi,
i want to know whether the cost center used for settlement of work order and cost center assigned to work center are same or not. please help me with this. can anyone give some examples of scenarios.
thanks,

Monica,
Settlement: Example from SAP - Help
The following example illustrates the creation and processing of an order from the point of view of order settlement.
The Order
In a clarification plant, three pumps are to be cleaned in the pumping station. All three pumps are installed at the same functional location.
Planning and Planning Data
The planner creates an order, enters the functional location C1-B01 (pumping station) as a reference object and enters the three pumps in the object list. The order is to be settled to the pumping station cost center, which has the number 511. This means that all the costs posted to the order for cleaning the three pumps will be settled to cost center 511 when the job is complete.
The order data comprises the following:
Data on the Performing Work Center "PSC" (pump fitters):
Entry
Number of persons performing the job : 2
Performing cost center (= cost center of the employees performing the job): 909
Activity type: Cleaning
Planned number of work hours per person per pump: 1
Cost of activity type per hour: $ 150
Total planned work hours: 6
Total labor costs: $ 900
Data for Scheduled Material:
Entry
Consumption posting to the amount of: $ 150
Releasing and Processing the Order
Once the planning stage is complete, the planner releases the order for processing.
The employees from work center "PSC" start the work:
They withdraw the material scheduled for the order from the warehouse. Actual costs of $150 are incurred for the order and are debited directly from the balance sheet account.
The employees confirm the length of time they worked on the order. It took them a little longer than planned, so that the resulting actual costs posted to the order are $1050. These costs are credited to the performing work center.
Situation After Completion of the Work
After the work has been completed and the order settled, the debits are as follows:
Balance on the order: $ 0.00
Debit to the receiver cost center 511 (pumping station): $ 1200.00
Hope this gives you a fair idea as what it should be, Reward your points if this was helpful.

Prasobh

Refurbish work order get settled before this refurbished material returned

Hello guy, can somebody help to analyze the problem I have in our production system.
the problem is that I found a strange thing that one of the refurbishment work order get settlem and the refurbished material is not yet returned back to stock.
And I check the cost report of this work order, and found this cost receiver is material, which means this cost is already posted against material.
I have no idea why this can be settled?
However it is impossible to settle refurbishment work order before refurbished material returning back to stock in my opinion.
Can any one help me, many thanks in advance.

Hi,
The refurbishment order can be settled to material when if it is in System status
DLV- delivered, after GR has been done or
TECO - If the order status is Technically completed
So in your case the order status may be in Teco status so that the cost is settled to Material before u do GR.
So check the System status of the maintenance order.
Reverse the settlement & do GR & settle again to material.
Regards,
Raj

Work Order Cost Rolling Up to WBS Element!

Hi everyone,
I created a Project A with WBS structure in PS (not statistical WBS structure). And then I assigned a work order to one of the WBS element A.0001. I did not post any cost to the WBS element directly. I only charged $1000 to the work order. Now when I use CN41N to generate the cost report and I found the $1000 in work order rolled up to WBS element A.0001 ($1000 showed at work order level and also WBS element level). Then I settled $1000 in the work order to a WBS element C.0001 in Project C. When I run CN41N again to see the cost in Project A, the $1000 still showed up at work order level, but it did not show up at WBS element level A.0001. I need the cost to roll up at WBS element level also, so this is a big problem for me.
I did several test. Assigned another work order to this WBS element A.0001 and charged another $1000 to the work order. Then I settled them to cost center directly instead of to WBS element. The $1000 showed up at the work order level and also at WBS element level (the cost rolled up from work order to the WBS element in that report). Then I tried to settle to GL account, the cost will roll up to WBS element too.
So I found only when I settle the cost to WBS element, the cost won't roll up. I think it might be a configuration problem. Does anyone know where I need to configure in order to let the cost roll up to the WBS element after I settle the Work order to a WBS elements?
Really appreciate your help!

Transfer Costs from AUC to Work Order

Hi,
Pre go-live balaces where loaded directly to the AUC, as opposed to the Work Order then settled to the AUC.
All of our capital reporting is done at work order level, therefore I want to transfer the balance from the AUC to the work order and then re-settle the work order back to the AUC. At present we cannot see the legacy costs relating to the capital project against the work order.
Is it possible to transfer costs off the AUC back to the Work Order?
Thanks
Jonski

Andres,
Yes you could accomplish it through the process you had mentioned.It would probably be the simplest way to accomplish your requirement as well.

KO8G open work order settlement

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

How can I make settlement rule mandatory in create work order (IW31)

How can I make settlement rule mandatory in create workorder and saving without release.
I kanow we can make settlement rule mandatory upon Release order but here requirement is
Create work order (IW21) save without releasing that time settlement rule should default.

Hi,
1.If you want the settlement rule default then maintain account assignment data in technical object and when MO is created on that it would be copied into the settlement rule...
2. If you want to make those fields mandatory .... plz check up field selections in config , if you cannot find those then use SHD0 Transaction variant to make those fields mandatory.
3. Enter SHD0 , Enter IW31 in transaction and ZIW31 for transaction variant ..click create option and this takes you to IW31 initial screen , here enter required values of technical object etc and press enter and this gives you IW31 Initial scree screen variant , click continue and this takes you to inside screen and here enter required field values and on pressing enter gives you screen variant .. so you need to enter field values and check the flow of screen variants and on getting settlement rule screen variant select required option for the fields you need.
4. Finally you can save that in package created in SE80 for transporting to other client .., you can activate the variant in SHD0 -->Standard variants -->you can find activate option ..
