WIP Calcultion not updated in GL

Question

Hi,
Could someone answer the issue that one of our users are facing.
We have an order where the WIP calculation is shown in KKAX but have not updated GL. is there anyway i could check whether the WIP has been posted to GL (i know it is through settlement but anyway to verify it). any suggestion to this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Roville

"Please suggest a document that would be useful for an user to perform an accurate month end run(Overhead,WIP, Variance & Settlement):"
There is no SAP Standard specific document.
I have done the month-end configuration and training with my company for 10 years, so I wrote the list accounting's use.
You need to know your orders [we do discrete production, Service and Sales orders] and know the configuration.
The "list" is :Overhead, WIP/RA, Variance and settlement as required. [We do NOT run overhead on Sales Orders because of the configuration we have]
I do not know how accounting does the reconciliation to the GL,
However, I did have a report spec'd using table: GLPCA,   EC-PCA: Actual Line Items"  which, for specified parameters, uses all the accounts and cost elements used in Orders (consumption, labor, overhead, settlement, etc) and it nets the $ values per order for the period.  If there is a balance, it is output to the report.  A balance on an order after settlement, indicates that there was some kind of issue with the order and it's settlement.  Accounting calls this the "Order Balance Report" it has become a standard part of the settlement process.
Once you know what steps need to be done, the way to insure that they are "always" done is to create selection variants and have the jobs scheduled to run in sequence automatically.  then Monitor them with SCMO
