Using a different Sender GL in Internal Order Settlement

When we settle an Internal Order from GL/Cost Element 1 to Fixed Assets, we get:
Dr: Fixed Asset
Cr: GL/Cost Element 1.
For various reasons, we do not want to Credit the original GL/Cost Element but rather another one.
Does anyone have any sugestions as to how this can be achieved?
Thanks.

Hi
Can you tell me what is meant by "Internal Order from GL/Cost Element.."?
As per the functionality, when you settle an internal order, something is moved from the intrnal order and put to another. Hence the place from where it is moved is credited and the receiver is debited. The internal order has postings through the cost element you have posted. So the movement is from what the internal order has in its account.
Order settlement is done through a secondary cost element created and this cost element is used for debiting and crediting the sender and receivers. Hence your idea of using a totally different GL/Cost element (of course that do not have postings with respect fo the internal order in question) is not practical, I hope.

Maintain internal order settlement rule using LSMW

HI ALL
I want to do mass maintenance of internal order settlement rule. Settlement category is PSG.
But when I use LSMW to do KO02, I only can input one settlement receriver, the first line will be overwritten by the second line.
I also see BAPI INTERNAL_ORDER_CREATE,but cannot find PSG as a settlement category.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi Lian
When you do recording, enter two settlement rules..
Then, before pressing the "DEFAULT ALL" button, change the Field names for the 2nd settlement rule
The problem you described happens because the field names for both settlement rules are same.. Hence, it gets overwritten
Assume that field name for Order is AUFNR... You can change the field name in recording to ZAUFNR for one of the fields
See the screen shot, wherein I changed the name of the recorded field to _01, _15 and _70

Why internal order settlement is require

why internal order settlement is require
and in internal orders acctual cost is plan cost is 100 and acctual is 150
then which amount we have to settle in internal order
regards
venkatareddy

Hey Venky,
An internal order is usually used as an interim collector of costs and an aid to the planning, monitoring, and controlling processes needed. When the job has been completed, you settle the costs to one or more receivers (cost center, fixed asset, profitability segment, and so on).
During settlement, some or all of the plan or actual costs incurred on an object are allocated to one or more receivers. The system automatically generates offsetting entries to credit the sender object. The debit postings assigned once to a sender object remain in place, even after settlement to a receiver (and can therefore be displayed). The costs settled are updated on the corresponding receiver object and displayed in reporting.
To be able to settle an order, you must have saved a settlement rule in each of the senders. This settlement rule determines where the costs are to be settled to. You can achieve this in two ways:
Settlement to One Receiver:You use this basic form of order settlement to completely settle the costs collected on the internal order. This is either to a cost center, or a G/L account under a settlement cost element. The system generates the appropriate settlement rule from the information contained in the internal order master data.
Comprehensive Settlement:Definition of a comprehensive settlement rule gives you more settlement possibilities, for example, you can:Settle costs to a wide range of receivers (project, sales order, profitability segment, and so on).
Specify how the costs are to be distributed between receivers.
Define the cost elements under which the sender is to be credited and the receivers debited.
Constraints:You can only use one of these settlement methods at a time: For example, if you defined settlement to one cost center in the master data for an internal order, then you can only define a more comprehensive settlement rule once you have deleted the first rule.
Hope this helps. Requesting to reward points please.

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,

Internal Order Settled to AUC reverse process

Dear Gurus,
I had a hard time to think how to do the processes over and over again.
The current process is:
Every month the internal order (investment and real order) will collect the expense on AUC and settle to the AUC.
At the end of year, the AUC will be settled to Fix Asset by internal order settlement rules.
Now what if the settled expense was not correct. For example, in 2009, I created the IO and settled the IO to AUC in several months. But in 2010, I found the expense in IO shall not be settled to AUC, the expense was only the overheads. ( The AUC was not settled to Fix Assets). Just like I wanna reverse the settlement in 2009.
So it would be like this in a flow chart.
IO-> AUC->FX
Now I need to do this:
AUC->IO->GL
For IO->GL, I have figured out that I can change the settlement rule profile and make the GL account allowed.
But for AUC->IO , I have no idea and almost burn my brain on it.
Could you please help to throw light ?
Emma

Internal Order settlement taking long .

Hi all,
We are doing the Internal Order settlement throught c088 and running it in the back ground processing.
Somehow its taking very long ( few days and still running ) . Its not an ABAP issue as there are no competing jobs. This is being done in ECC 6.0.
Any clue why the settlement is taking so long? any help will be useful.
thanks so much.

Hi,
I hope you might have included more than 1000 Internal orders for collective settlement...this will cause for either ABAP run time error or long time for completion.
Please limit your selection like 500,500,500 ....then it would work.
Please check OSS note.532323 and 621934

Current year cost has been settled to AUC. However an cost belonging to last year Dec 2006 is not settled to AUC.
This cost is available in Line item of Internal order in Tcode : KOb1 for the previous year 2006. For the current year 2007 the balance of the order is Zero as all cost are settled through T code: KO8G
We tried settling the cost to period 12 year 2007 in KO88 system said Settle the balance from previous year in the previous year first. We have applied SAP note: 819197. Now we are getting another error AUC not completely credited.

KO88 is a Period end activities, after each month nend you have to mandatorily run KO88 settlement.

Internal Order settlement "Acquisition value negative"

Hello,
Internal Orders Settlement Process (TRX KO8G) Received the message "Acquisition Value negative in area 01" for I/O # 850100 & 861650 when attempting to run the February 2014 Settlement.
What went wrong? How can I resolve this issue?

Hello,
There are 2 ways to solve this issue.
1. Check why there is a negative value posted on this asset? If the posting is correct, then
or
2. Allow the negative value posting in Asset master (AS02) ->Depreciation areas-> Double click on the depreciation areas -> Negative posting.
I suggest you to not to check the option "All values allowed", because you may loose the flexibility of negative value posting.
Hope this helps

Internal Order Settlement-urgent

Hi Gurus
I have an internal order balance of -160$ USD.
USD is the Controlling Area Curr.
But when viewed in local Curr (CAD) it has a balance of zero.
I checked the controlling area settings, and it is set to update local aswell as contr. area curr.
Please advise as how to get this internal order settled.
I cant reverse because there are 600 more orders settled after this issue has arised.
Please advise with TCodes
thanks in advance
Sharath

These could be orders already settled in the earlier years with some balance is USD currency. It is possible that the old version of SAP allowed the full settlement even with the balance in controlling area currency. In the version 4.7 this is not possible.
As no new cost will likely be posted on or settled from these orders, so just lock the orders. This does not have any effect in reportings normally.

Internal Order Settlement Posting Date

Hi gurus,
Can I change the posting date on an Internal Order settlement or it has to be always the last day of the settlement period?

Hi Susanna,
Yes, you can change the posting date. On order settlement screen KO88 or KO8G, under extras you can find posting date where you can enter the new posting date however, it should be within the open period.

Material number in profitability segment in internal order settlement rule

Hello,
We have a process which is the following: the real posting for the revenue in the sales order is an internal order. Once the internal order settlement is done, then the values flow to COPA.
The material shows up in the revenue FI document, but it does not show when we look at the internal orders line items.
I need to have the material number from the sales order (from the revenue posting) automatically identified in the profitability segment in the settlement rule of the internal order.
Would anyone know how this can be done?
Thank you!

Hi,
Where exactly are you checking for the material no ? When you settle the IO to COPA a record type C will be created in COPA. Is the material no missing in the record type C ?
In that case if the sales order no is available on the internal order then you can in a derivation rule do a table lookup on VBAP and get the material no.

Waman
