WBS settlement to AUC - use original cost elements?

Hello gurus
We have an allocation structure which settles project WBS costs to AUC.
The issue is that it is using a single settlement cost element for all the costs going to the AUC.
I notice there is a tick box 'by cost element' in the 'Allocation structure:settlement cost elements' entry for FXA.
What is the result of using this tick box?
We would like the original cost elements in the WBS to be credited rather than the single one.
Is this possible?
Thanks everyone

Hi
- we do not have secondary cost elements posted
- we do not use budget checking
As I said, we would like the original cost elements against the WBS to be credited. The single one is causing problems because it posts in total to 55291 (as in the configuration) which does not reconcile back to the many cost elements posted to the WBS.
Is this possible?
What is the effect of the check box 'by cost element' as we do not understand the help text on this checkbox field and are not sure if this could solve the problem (or there is a downside to using this). If this is not possible we would like to know as well.
Thanks all

  • Capitalization of an investment order/project - Original cost elements

    Hi all,
    I do have a question concerning the capitalization of an investment order/investment project onto an asset under construction (AuC).
    I have configured the system in a way, using capitalization key and capitalization versions, that I can capitalize 100 % of the costs within the IFRS depreciation area to the AuC and 0 % of the costs within my local gaap depreciation area to the AuC.
    Instead of capitalizing the costs within the local gaap depreciation area, the cost are booked to the u201CAccount for capitalization differences/nonoperating expensesu201D.
    With the settlement of the investment order/investment project to the AuC the original cost accounts/cost elements (shared between IFRS and local gaap) are credited and the AuC is debited for the IFRS deprecation area and the u201CAccount for capitalization differences/nonoperating expensesu201D is debited for the local gaap depreciation area.
    My problem is, that I do not want to have the costs for my local gaap P&L on the u201CAccount for capitalization differences/nonoperating expensesu201D, I do want to have them instead on the corresponding local gaap cost accounts/cost elements to  the original shared cost accounts/cost elements within FI and CO. 
    Is there any possibility to do this within SAP Standard?
    (If possible the solution should also work within New GL, using multiple ledgers for parallel accounting instead of different account)
    Thank you!
    Regards

    Hi Prad,
    I am on 4.6C/D.
    Please check on your settings for Capitalization of AUCs created through Investment Support Measures: -
    1. Go to the IMG, Asset Accounting under Special Valuation and determine the Depreciation Areas you would like your Investment Support Measures to post to.
    2. Still in Special Valuation, define an Investment Support Key and assign it to the relevant depreciation area
    3. Also, define the relevant account determination for such posting under the Special Valuation
    4. Proceed in the same area to define the Transaction type for the Investment Support Measure by changing any of the Standard ones in there in line with your requirements
    5. Now move back to IMG, Asset Accounting then Master Data. Here you go to the screen layout and pick the relevant asset class for AUCs. Get this logical feild group and pick on the item Investment Support. Proceed to define its feild group rule as optional at the required asset maintenance level (Main Asset and/or Sub Level)
    6. Leave the IMG and access the relevant AUC's Master Data from the User Menu. Click the tab Investment Support and insert the Investment Support Key you created in note 2 above
    7. Now capitalise the AUC. Should work

  • Using Primay cost element instead of secondary cost element for expenses tr

    Hai  SAP Guru
    WE are developer company, so when a land is acquired we create the project under business development with nomenclature "BD/LG/01" with  corporate  profit centre linked to it (as we are not sure if the project takes of due to various issues.)
    When the project commences we create another project structure with nomenclature "BE/LG/01u201D  with new profit centre.
    So when we transfer the cost lying in u201C BD u201D  project to u201C BE u201C project by giving settlement profile, the cost get transferred using secondary cost element. when we see the statement through CJI3 report the cost would have get transferred but when we
    see the report through Finance Profit Centre report the cost would have not transferred.
    So in order to get the report in profit centre, can we use primary cost element instead of secondary cost element, if we use the primary cost element what the consequence and what care needs to be taken for settlement.
    Thanks.

    Thanks.

    Hi Lakshmi,
    There are quite a few settings to be maintained. I do not remember exact sequence of steps but here are a few pointers.
    1. Investment profile needs to be created with 'line item settlement'
    2. AUC asset class to be created and assigned to this investment profile
    3. Investment profile to be linked to project profile.
    4. Source structure to be assigned to investment profile
    There may be other steps I am missing but I hope these help.
    Also, if you mention any error that you are facing or at which point you are getting stuck, it would be helpful.

  • Sales Pricing without Inquiry using detailed Cost element Planning

    Deal All,
    I need to use use Sales Pricing without Customer Inquiry to Genrate Quatation from Project.
    In my project client is asking to use deatiles cost element planning for same. So, let me know
    Weather its possible to use Detailed cost element planning for doing Sales pricing in DP82
    or Do we need to use ECP only to do Sales Pricing??
    Also, let me know if there will be any change in RA method also.
    regards,
    Atul

    Hi Atul,
    You can use any of the cost planning method (i.e Details cost element planning, ECP or Network Costing) to create Quotation using DIP Profile.
    Coming to the second point..any effect on RA calculation..This Quotation creation process is no where effects RA calculation.
    basically for creating Quotation usign DIP Profile, there should be cost element wise planned cost required.
    Hope this clears you...

  • Capital project WBS settle to AUC individually

    Dear all experts,
    please help me on the following issues.
    i am working on a capital project. Investment profile is defined and assgined to the project profile.
    the top WBS is T-09-001
    the second level WBS are T-09-001-01,  T-09-001-02,  T-09-001-03,  T-09-001-04, T-09-001-05 for example.
    the third level WBS is T-09-001-05-01.
    i do the test settlement when the project status is release. (i didn't maintain the settlement rule.)
    the result is that every single WBS is settled to a FXA (the numbers are generated automatically)
    for example
    T-09-001-01 to  FXA 1000/40047/0   30000CNY
    T-09-001-02 to  FXA 1000/40048/0   40000CNY
    T-09-001-03 to  FXA  1000/40049/0  40000CNY......
    i am not sure if it is correct or not, because it's my first time to deal with capital projects.
    if i want to settle all the sub-WBS to top WBS and the top one settled to AUC, how can i do it.
    i manually maintain the settlement rule for all the sub-WBS to top WBS and settle the project again.
    but the result is the same. i don't know where the problem is.
    please tell me how to do it or how to settle the capital projects in most cases?
    thanks a lot.
    judy

    Below was something which we had done in such case:
    1. Created a substitution rule against the WBS element, if the level of WBS >=2 substitute the Investment profile with 'Blank'. With this when ever you create a project and save it or call the substitution from menu, system would retain the investment profile on level 1 WBS and when project is released only 1 AUC is created for the project which is on level 1 WBS.
    2. Settle all other lower WBS to it's parent WBS and you can implement OSS note 211324 - CJB1: Strategy for settlement to superior WBS. Refer the below link about how this works:
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/ModificationnoteforStrategyforsettlementtosuperiorWBS
    Doing both the above, you would create only 1 AUC (on level 1 WBS) and finally settle all lower WBS to level 1 WBS and from there system would then automatically settle the costs to AUC fixed asset.

  • Settle internal order to primary cost element

    Hi all,
    We use internal orders to collect costs for cars. We differentiate between fuel and maintenance costs. Both cost elements are set up being primary cost elements.When settling the internal order costs are settled using a secondary cost element. What do I need to change and where do I have to change this to have the cost settled against the original, primary cost elements (fuel/maintenance)?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Best regards, Paul

    Hi,
    Check the setting
    Controlling ->Internal Orders ->Actual Postings->Settlement->Maintain Allocation Structures.
    & also check the settlement profile.

  • Use of cost element as a fixed characteristic in PA?

    Hi,
    How the cost element is used from CE1XXXX table in Profitability Analysis reporting?
    If you are using cost center assessments, the last cost element in settlement document is used as reference cost element to post a PA document in CEXXXX table. Why the last cost element is used?
    Thanks

    When you do COPA assessements they use a secondary cost element you specify in each cycle segment. It shows in CO as an offset to the original amount. On the COPA side it creates a posting to that same cost element in the value field you designate. These entries form a profitability segmant in COPA which is COPA's way of indexing the entries. I am not sure why you say the last cost element because the sender pulls what you designate by segment and the receiver gets what you send based on the secondary cost element and value fields.
    pls assign points to say thanks.

  • IM-PS  top WBS settle to AUC

    Dear all experts,
    could you help me on the following issue?
    i am working on a capital project. IM and PS modules are used.
    my key users want to settle lower WBS to the superior WBS and the top WBS to one AUC when they do the monthly settlement.
    i delete the IM profile in the lower WBS, and maintain the settlement rule of them.
    when i do the settle i found that lower WBS settle to the superior WBS but the top WBS doesn't settle to AUC
    could you tell me what's the problem.
    Judy

    sorry, i didn't mean to close the question, as the problem is still there.
    here is what i am.
    AUC is created automatically when i release the project.
    if i didn't delete the IM profile, all the WBS including the top one will be settled to AUC individually.
    but if i delete the IM profile of lower WBS and maintain the settlement rule manually, the lower WBS will be settled to the top WBS. but the top one will not be settled to AUC that is created automatically.
    the settlement type is not AUC,but GES.
    i don't think it is correct.
    could someone offer me some help or suggestions?
    did someone meet the same problem?
    thanks in advance.

  • Settle Production Variances to COPA- Cost elements and Value fields

    Dear All,
    I know this question has been discussed in the past, but I have one specific doubt regarding this topic.:
    When assigning cost elements to variance categories in t-code KEI1, how do we figure out what combination of cost elements (in the top half of the screen) constitute Input Price Variance, Scrap variance etc (in the bottom half of the screen)? I know the net of the postings on those cost elements tells us what variances we are looking it, but how do we get the cost elements (group) for let's say, 'Input/Output Quanity Varinace or 'Lot size Variance' ?
    Or is this a futile exercise? May be I should just create three types of variances: Labor, Machine and Overhead. And I know what cost elements (net of the postings) would, in total, make up the $ variance in each of those categories. I can then use them in my report painter reports.
    Please help clear the fog for me.
    Ajay?
    Thanks a lot,
    Deepak

    Hi Deepak,
    Welcome to SDN!!
    There are 2 ways of updating variances in COPA... I Prefer the 2nd option always...
    1. Category wise variances (Input Prc, Usage var, etc) - Here, create a Cost ele group, where in you include all the Cost elements that can be posted to the Prod orders
    For the sake of simplicity, you can include Cost elements 1 to 99999999 in the Cost element group...
    2. Cost Comp Structure wise variances -
    a. Create as many assignment lines in PA Trf Structure as in your Cost Comp Str...
    Eg: If your Cost Comp Str in OKTZ has Raw Mat, Labor, Overhead - Create 3 Assignments in PA Trf Structure..
    b. Assign the same cost elements in the SOURCE as in the Cost Comp Str
    c. Choose the radio button "Costs/Revenues" in your assignment line, instead of " Variance on Production orders"
    d. Assign each Assignment line to a separate Value Field

  • WBS settle to AUC in error

    We have a WBS element that was set up incorrectly to settle to an AUC asset. As a result, there has already been settlement activity (CJ8G) in past, closed fiscal years. So now we have an AUC asset that should not exist. I have been reading other issues to get a better understanding of my options. What is the best approach to remove this AUC asset???
    We use a settlement variant in CJ8G to prevent this from happening (i.e. exclude from settlement) in the event a WBS element is set up incorrectly with an investment profile but one somehow was overlooked.

    Please refer to note 339973

  • WBS settled cost in sales order

    Hi,
    We settlele the WBS to Sales order and where we can see the settled cost in sales order.
    Kindly suggest.
    Thanks,

    Dear Sudha,
    You can check if the costs are transferred from WBS element in CJI3 (you will see a credit posting for the WBS element)
    You can check if the costs are debited to the Sales Order using KVBI (you wlll see a debit posting for the Sales Order item)
    Note: Cost elements that you see could be a settlement cost element /original cost element based on the allocation structure used.
    Kind Regards
