Statistical wbs and assets

I am aware that statistical wbs do not settle. However, someone told me that it is possible for a statistical wbs to direct post to an asset. I believe they said the asset number was part of the wbs number. But I don't remember all of the specifics. Is anyone familiar with this?

Hi
Please read note 21583 and 684659!

ACTUAL COSTS:REPORT WITH STATISTICAL WBS AND ASSETS ASSIGNED TO THEM

Hi all,
I would like to run a report that gave me this info:
WBS Element (all statistical)
Assets assigned to each WBS
Actual costs
It would be perfect CJI3 but it doesn't show assets. In AM I haven't see either any report that shows WBS elements...
any ideas???

An statistical WBS element is an SAP object . Statistical means that you need another object to post the cost or income, let's say,an asset.
Actual costs are the real postings you have in an object, coming from MM, SD, GL ... (just the contrary as budget or planned values).

One report to check WBS and Asset number

Hi All,
Please advice. Is there any report to check WBS and asset number belong to ?
Many thanks in advance.
Nies

Please let me know your exact requirement.
But KOSRLIST_PR will show (if you have valid entries) the settlement receiver something like below with WBS element information and settlement details:
WBS ISC/00002-1-02 RECEIVER WBS2-COMP 1000
FXA 1000/700000132/0 RECEIVER WBS2-COMP 1000 100.00 AUC Act

Statistical WBS and Network

Dear All,
We have budget control activated on cost centers via the use of PSM. We now want to use Project System module to execute a project for which cost will be charged onto a cost center. An option already investigated is that of using statistical WBS, which provides two advantages:
1) No hassle of periodic settlement to cost center as cost is updated simultaneously.
2) Budget control remains in-tact because any cost posted (statistically, i.e. type '11') on a wbs will be posted (actually, i.e. type '4') on the cost center for which budget would be checked.
My problem arises when we try to use networks. It is my understanding that network orders cannot be made statistical and therefore any cost posted to them (either direct journal entry or via PO, GR/IR) is done actually (i.e. type '4') and not statistically. No actual entry is posted on the cost center, and I have to manually run the settlement on the network. This settlement process than automatically posts the cost to wbs which eventually goes as actual cost to the cost center. However this case has two major problems:
1) Increased overhead of periodic settlement for the network
2) No budget control as cost posted on the network can exceed budget available on the cost center (the budget error would only arise when settling the network).
My prime objective is for the budget control to remain in-tact for which i need an option of automatic cost posting from the network to the cost center as soon as it is posted (something possible for statistical wbs).
Any help in this regards would be highly appreciated.

Ammar Zaheer

Is there any work around? I heard about periodic reposting, has anyone tried it before? What if I create my PR or PO on the statistical WBS?

Report-statistical WBS with assets assigned to them: actual costs

Hi all,
I would like to run a report that gave me this info:
WBS Element (all statistical)

Actual costs

You are right: it doesn't exist.
You have to create a custom one, of work with Excel with the aim of merge tha data from FI-AA, PS, and MM.

Does anyone use Framwork POs for WBS and Asset management.

We have had issues before with trying to use Framework POs for Assets. I wanted to know, does anyone out there use the Framework PO for the creation of Assets with charges going to WBS elements? Do you track service charges as well as material charges that are purchsed for Assets?

For PO, WBS, Asset frame work below is the sample
Create WBS which manage AUC
Example you will create a clinic,
Create Project - [Project Clinic]
Create WBS under the Project Clinic - [Clinic Expense]
Create AUC under WBS Clinic Expense - [Clinic under Construction]
Let say you purchase Paint for the clinic - create a PO and use account assignment WBS [Clinic Expense] (e.g. 1000 USD)
Let say you purchase Wood for the clinic - create a PO and use account assignment WBS [Clinic Expense] (e.g. 2000 USD)
During month end you can settle the amount to AUC (tcocde CJ88 - Settlement type - Automatic)
All charges to WBS will go to AUC
Once construction of clinic is finished and is ready to use, you need to settle all the amount from WBS to AUC (through settlement)
Then create Fixed Asset [Clinic Building]
Then settele the AUC [Clinic under Construction] charges to Fixed Asset [Clinic Building] through CJ88 settlement type - Final settlement
Thanks!

Report: Statistical WBS elements with assets assigned to them - actual cost

Hi all,
I would like to run a report that gave me this info:
WBS Element (all statistical)
Assets assigned to each WBS

Hi
There is not a standard report which can cater to your requirements. You need to develop one.
You can take the refernece from CNS41 report for development. Some of the fields you need are PRPS-XSTAT for statistical WBS and will have to use tables ANLA and ANLC to fetch asset master data.

Asset budgeting through Statistical WBS

Dear Experts,
I have configured and assigned Statistical WBS to Asset to carry out active budgeting. To my knowledge I have configured all relevant configuration but when I create PR over this Asset, WBS field is not updated in the PR and therefore no commitment / budget check is performed.
However, in this same scenario I created internal order and assigned it to WBS. Here then I assigned the Internal Order to the Asset. Budget check in this case runs fine.
As you may see from figure above B-OA01-001-001 is assigned to an Internal Order where it correctly carry out commitment / budget check when I create PR against Asset with Internal Order as Investment Account Assignment. Also it displays Internal Order number along with Asset number in PR account assignment tab.
But when I assign WBS directly to an Asset in origin tab of Asset Master no budget check is carried out while creating PR. Also WBS field is also not updated in PR account assignment tab with Asset.
Note: Budget in both cases is assigned to WBS element.

Saif

Salaam Saif!!
You need to do settings in T code ACSET... You must assign WBS Element in ACSET against APC postings
Refer below
Incase you dont find these in dropdown list in ACSET, activate them in ORFA > Integration with the General Ledger> Additional Account Assignment Objects > Activate Account Assignment Objects

No Error when Statistical WBS is closed

Hi,
I had created Statistical WBS elements and assigned this to Maintenance orders, System allows me to close the WBS element even when the Orders are open and also allows me to assign & issue materials without checking the budget ( as the WBS is already closed).
How system allows closure of WBS when this WBS element is assigned to some orders which are still open ? Is there any user exit available to prevent this ?
thanks in advance.
Regards
Vinodh

Hi Vindoh,
The reason being your WBS is statistical. Statistical WBS are only meant for statistical postings. You cannot settle them or carry overhead. Just try to maintain settlement rule on statistical WBS and you will get the following message
Statistical WBS element: No surcharges, settlement etc. N-000298
     Message no. CJ714
Diagnosis
     A statistical WBS element cannot be settled, nor carry overheads, nor
     can results analysis be carried out for it. Therefore it does not mak
     sense to maintain control parameters for these functions for statisti
     WBS elements.
System Response
     If you have identified the WBS element as statistical, these control
     parameters will not be displayed in the work breakdown structure.
The real cost objects are Cctr or Orders. They are only meant for reporing or exercising budgetory controls mainly during Asset procurement.
Thanks

Statistical WBS & WBS with Planning element in summarization

Can statistical WBS and WBS with planning element are included in summarization?
Thx

Hi,
Summarisation reports output are same as the equivalent standard reports but they vary only in the hierarchical display of values. The hierarchy of the report depends on the fields you are using to create a summarisation hierarchy.

Statistical WBS elements-Budgeting and Use

Hi Guys,
Need some KT from you all regarding Statistical WBS Elements.My queries are
1.Can a statistical WBS element be budgeted? If yes how are the Budget distributed to those below.
2..If a level 2 WBS is marked statistical and it has 3 WBS under it which are Acc asignment element then how is the budget distributed.
3.can you provide some good example of the use of Statistical WBS element?
Thanks in Advance
ssk

Hi Shourya,
1. As mentioned above Statistical WBS can be budgeted like any operative project and the budget can further be divided into lower level WBS elements and Availaility Control can be activated on these.
2. Again as stated above the budget distribution is normal. For ex- If a level 2 WBS is statistical and level 2's underneath that are real WBS.
3. We can use the Statistical WBS for capital projects. For ex- We can assign a Statistical WBS in Master record of AUC for Availability control of budget for Capital spending. And then when we create a PO with Account Assignment category A with same AUC, budget control (Availability control) is activated through the statistical WBS.
Someone might ask but why we want to use WBS for budget control why not I/O? It's because it provides more visibility over different departments (divided by structure). And via this process we can see all our PO's on AUC directly from Asset Explorer (AW01N).
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
BS

WBS Elements and Asset Under Constructions have different Cost Centers

Hello Experts,
We have created a WBS element in one of the projects.
As per standard process, when we create the WBS Element the Asset under construction is also getting created through the settlement rule within the WBS.
These assets should have the same Cost Center as the WBS has. However we are in a situation wherein the Cost Center in the asset under construction is different than the Cost Center in the WBS.
I have checked the settings like automatic account assignment, etc but all settings look correct.
Can you please explain first what could be the reason for such a difference between Cost Centers in WBS and AuC's and what is the solution to avoid it in future?
Thanks in advance
Leena

Thanks for your replies...
@ Alex - There is no Investment Programme ID maintained for this WBS in question since there is no IM for this project.
@ Abdul - Please elaborate more on Validation and Substitution.

Any standard report to show WBS,settlement, asset no and asset cost/value

Hi All,
Please advice . Is there any standard report to show WBS,settlement, asset no and asset cost/value ? I tried tcode kosrlist_pr but it does not show asset cost/value.. it shows only WBS,settlement and asset no.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Nies

Dear,
der is no such standard report to show WBS,settlement, asset no and asset cost/value as perv my knowlwdge. so do one thing select one standard report which is more similar to standard report to show WBS,settlement, asset no and asset cost/value but some of like asset no or asset cost or some other values not reflecting in that std report. den u take the Table name and field name of that particular fields which u wann reflect in the report. use the logic of STD TC of SAp which more similar to which u wanna preapre the New TC. tae help of Abaper. tell ur querry and content of ur report . he will definately do it
if ur get my ans reward with points

Networks and activities attached to statistical WBS

Hi,
I have a statistical WBS which is attached to networks, and activities. It looks like in standard SAP, the networks and activities cannot be made statistical. So the networks and activities carries actual cost (after posting). Is there a way in SAP to make this actual cost in network and activity as statistical? Or do you think that we need to settle the cost somewhere?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Aman

As I stated before, I also know that networks, and activities cannot be statistical. My question is what would be the solution in this case? Anyway, we've decided to make all objects as statistical WBS elements to resolve the issue. Closing the thread.

Availability control on statistical WBS element

Hi everybody,
The issue deals with availability control on statistical WBS element.
Part 1 : I released 25000 as budget (CJ32) for a statistical WBS element.
Availability control is active for this WBS element.
We made a good receipt (MIGO) for 20000 on an AUC (asset under
construction) - so we get the value as statistical value on the WBS
element -, then invoice verification (MIRO) and finally the asset
transfer (ABUMN) from asset under construction to fixed asset.
On this statistical WBS element we get +20000 (MIRO) and -20000 (ABUMN).
The problem is that the amount that is used for the availability check
is 0, instead of 20000 as you can check !!!
We set a budget on the statistical WBS element in order to have the
availability check ... and this is not working as the system in the described case shows 25000 as available but for me we should have only 5000 (= 25000 - 20000).
Part 2 : This is working perfectly (I get the expected value for available) when we use a "real" WBS element, put an expense on it, then run the period end closing tranction CJ88 in order to transfer the cost on an AUC, and finally run CJ88 again in order to transfer from AUC to fixed asset.
Did anybody already encountered this problem with statistical WBS element ? How did you solve this (we would like to keep our statistical WBS element) ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,
Pl go through the link below :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/3e/a98337dd34ca76e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
I have not faced this but as far as I remeber for AUC Statistical assignments have some limitations.
Any specicfic reason for keeping the WBS Statistical? Are you able to see "0" zero on this WBS in CN41.
Regards,
Sudhanshu
PS: Assign points as a way to say thanks.
