Without COPA customer project settlement - where it should get settled ?

Should it?  Well, first you need to know why do you want to settle.  If you have RA to be posted for example.

    Dear All,
    i am working in customer projects. Actual cost and revenues r flowing.The RA key to the top WBS Element which is also billing element. I heve done the revenue based result anlaysis.Profit and loss are showing in RA. Now i want to settle the project to CO-PA.
    Given settlement rule to top WBS Element and all other lower WBS element have profile not ot settle.if i run settlement CJ88 then nothing is flowing and not any error.
    Need solution.

    Dear,
    i m settleing the lower level WBS Element to top WBS Element which is billing element and result analysis is done for that top wbse .Then i want to settle the top wbse to profibility segement .Then after trying some config steps and defining PA transfer strature settlement of lower level wbse to upper level wbse is going well and accounting document is creating well.And CJI3 report its flowing well.
    but in top WBSE the rule is profibility segment.I've done the result analysis and the net value (revenue-actual cost)
    is also showing.That value is on the lower level wbse and that only value is going to TOP wbse after settlement.
    but now i want to settle this top wbse but its showing no accured cost or revenue.
    Is the process i m using is correct or i've to do it by some other method.The RA valuation method is revenue based.

  • Settlement of customer project--without COPA

    Hi guru's,
    We do not have COPA in place here...so how to settle our project.
    please provide me any revlevant doc regarding settlement from the config as well as execution of settlement point of view.
    I need to sit with my CO consultant.
    My counter part CO Consultant has not worked with PS integration so he is not having idea about the settlement for projects....i need to make him understand.
    Please help me.

    Recommendations in Customer Projects
    In customer projects, the actual costs are settled, but accrued amounts (such as costs of sales or inventory from which revenue can be generated) are not. You carry out this settlement at billing element level.
    For customer projects which you settle in full to Profitability Analysis, it is a good idea to generate the settlement rule using a strategy defined in the IMG. The standard system we deliver includes a strategy for automatically generated settlement rules for customer projects.
    The system uses this strategy to generate the following:
    u2022     For all billing elements:
    o     Results analysis key
    o     Settlement to profitability segment
    o     A settlement profile providing for settlement in full
    u2022     For all other WBS elements
    o     No results analysis key
    o     A settlement profile providing for no settlement
    If account assignment elements within a billing structure do not contribute to the cost of sales, you can change the settlement rule manually.
    If you maintain the settlement rule manually, we recommend you proceed as follows:
    u2022     Use a project profile with a settlement profile that forbids settlement. This initially prevents settlement for all the WBS elements in the project.
    u2022     Change the settlement profile in the billing elements manually. Define a settlement profile that permits settlement.
    u2022     If you want to settle account assignment elements (in whole or in part), you must change the settlement profile for account assignment elements manually.
    You change the settlement profile in the settlement rule for the object by choosing Goto  Settlement parameters. There is a parameter in the settlement profile which you can use to define whether settlement is forbidden, allowed, or required.
    Avoid making settlements within the project hierarchy. These can adversely affect system performance.
    For more information on settling customer projects, refer to  Settlement in Product Cost Controlling .

  • Close of Customer Project without Settlement

    Hi All,
    Is it necessary to have Settlement rules for the Projects that are Subject to Result Analysis.
    We want to Close the Customer Project without settlment, Since the RA has been carried out for this project.
    When we are trying to Close the Project.Error Message.Still WIP Exists for this Project.
    Please suggest what is the best way to close the Project without carrying settlement Run.
    Regards,

    Try this,
    Create a settlement profile as "Not for Settlement", check the radio button for "Not for Settlement" and in the valid receivers maintain the option in the dropdown as Settlement optional or Settlement Not Required. Assign this Settlement profile to the project profile as well as maintain it in the settlement strategy for the respective Object.
    Once you are done with this, run your usual scenario and then try to close the project without running settlement. See what happens and revert with your findings.

  • Settlement in Customer Projects

    Dear all,
    In our scenario, we have customer projects which are settled to Profitability segment. The client doesn't want to settle the projects periodically. The client wants to settle the project only onces when the project is over. In this case the project will hold cost till the last day.
    Client intents to use RA only for information purpose and not for posting the RA value on the project. Hence clients decision seems genuine.
    What are the impact of this decision? How often do we really have to settle the project in this situation?
    What is the impact of not settling the project at all?
    Request your opinion on this issue.
    Warm regards,
    Srinivas Potluri

    Hi Srini,
    The business process as required by you is possible & i don't think there will be any impact. Project settlement can be made on completion of project iteself, n't periodically as your identifying cost / revenue externally.
    RA can be used to identify calculated revenue / cost & n't to consider real posting into FI.
    Few queries, i would like to ask on your  business scenarios. If the project settlemnt is after completion of project only, how project profitability is obtained from period to period. How is balance sheet reporting for the ongoing projects.
    Hope this will help you.

  • Project Settlement - Aggregating/Settling on new custom field

    At our company, we created a new custom field called "Location Code" that is populated during journal entries through manual input. When an entry to a WBS element is posted with a Location Code value entered, the Location Code value also gets carried over to CO (controlling), SPL, and is in PS. The problem we have is with settlement as it does not carry over the Location Code at the final settlement receiver. For example:
    1. Journal entry is posted to WBS element H01.12345.01.01 with Location Code value entered of "435" (this is a field in the FI document posting screen) for $100. Another entry is posted to the same WBS element but with a different Location Code of "080" for $200. Both entries to the same G/L account.
    2. Settlement is run to settle the 2 entries in Step 1 above which totals ($200 + $100) $300. WBS element H01.12345.01.01 will settle to a cost center.
    3. When we view the final accounting documents (especially our special ledger purpose documents), Location Code value is blank and there is one entry to the receiving cost center for $300. It seems project settlement aggregates entries based only on WBS level and G/L account.
    QUESTION: Is it possible (and if so, how) to get projects to settle these lines individually based on aggregating on Location Code as well as G/L account? We would like to see $200 settle to the receiving cost center with Location Code value "435", and another line settling $100 to the receiving cost center with Location Code "080".
    I hope I made sense. Thanks in advance!

    line item settlement should only be possible if the setting is maintained in the IM Profile and it sounds like your projects don't have an IM profile...  so it shouldn't work.  I haven't used it on a non-capital project but you could give it a shot.

  • After Settlement, Cost not transfer from one WBS to another WBS in customer project

    Hello Experts,
    I am trying to settle cost from one WBS (i.e. XYZ-000014-1) to another WBS (i.e. XYZ-00001)in customer project.
    Its a revenue type of project.
    I have added 4 internal activities in an network under one WBS (i.e. XYZ-000014-1).
    Got actual values after confirming activities, then settle that network cost on WBS (i.e. XYZ-000014-1)  through CJ88.
    Now while trying to settle that cost from WBS (i.e. XYZ-000014-1) to WBS (i.e. XYZ-00001) through CJ88, system not showing any result.
    Kindly give ur valuable inputs.
    Regards,

    Kindly tell me that is it a standard functionality of SAP that through CJ88 we can transfer cost from WBS to WBS.
    Technically ,Yes.Cost is actually transferred from one cost object to another cost object.
    I hv discuss the same with some of my frds ...some are denying the same that its not a standard functionality of SAP to transfer cost on same cost object.
    Instead of 'transfer' I would rather use the word 'settlement' . Practically, they are right as projects-WBS are temporary endeavors of companies, and cost can not reside on WBS permanently as it has to settle to some entity (organizational unit) which can be accounted during the reconciliation of their chart of accounts and balance sheets.
    SAP has provided us an option to settle our cost to WBS and hence its standard . Generally, we use it when we have 1 WBS at level 1 and all lower WBS's costs is settled to this WBS . Here, we specify Level 1 WBS as the receiver of cost of these lower WBS.
    Hope,I am clear here.

  • About Generating Settlement Rule in Customer Project

    Hi Experts,
    I am doing the exercise of customer project T-100## in CA830.
    While generating the settlement rule, the error log appeared: No profitability segment could be determined for the billing elements. So the settlement rule generation failured.
    May somebody guide me how to solve this problem.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Balakrishman,
    In my case, the fields of Business Area/Profit center have already been maintained. I think there must be other reasons that result in these error. Hope we can discuss further. Thank you for your help!

  • Settlement  for Internal and Customer Project

    Hi Guys,
    I am new to SAP PS.
    I have a R&D project(Internal Project) and a Customer project. I know internal project is treated as  Asset and settled as AUC, but can we settle it in any other way apart from cost center and GL account.
    Then what about Customer project. I want to know how can we settle these both project and what are the setting and what are settlement rules used for settling Internal and Customer project?
    Please need your help.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Roshan Malaruthu

    For Internal/Investment project, you can settle all actual line items of CJIC/CJI3 to AUC then final settle capitalized items of AUC to FXA i.e. on fixed Asset using final settlement rule.
    Note: You can also use GL Account or Cost Center here for settlement receiver.
    Before doing this, you need to configure investment & settlement Profile. And assigned them to your Project Profile.
    For Customer Project, As Santosh said is correct, you have to use Profitability Segment as settlement receiver. Just select PSG as default Obj type in settlement profile.
    Also refer the link below for more details:

  • Problem while settling the customer project

    Hi
    I am trying to settlement of customer project, but  while doing so It says investment measure rather than processed when trying to generate settlement rules – bal of $5000. Please can any body tell where would be the actual problem.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hello Saurabh
    I have not assigned any invest profile in project. But in the table PRPS for all these
    WBS elements an investment profile has been assigned. When I make settlement run
    CJB2 it say processing is done with out error. But in the processing category the following message is displayed. The project is Customer project.

  • PS Implementation without COPA

    Hi Gurus,
    Can anybody clarify following queries.....
    1. Can we implement PS Module without COPA Module.
    2. If so, what will be the settlement object in settlement rule. (WBS Settlement)
    Note: We are implementing PS module for Customer Projects and COPA is not in our implementation scope.
    Regards,
    Ganesh Ck

    It is ideal to have PS module along with COPA. However we can implement just the PS module. The only small issue that we would have is settlement of revenues. We need to settle revenue only to revenue GL accounts You have is create appropraite allocation structure:
    1. Create allocation structure
    2. Create 2 assignments "Rev" and "COST"
    3. For source assign all cost related accounts to "COST" and revenue related accounts to "REV"
    4. For settlement, the receiver category can be cost center/wbs element for "COST". The receiver category has to be GL accounts for "REV"

  • To have better understanding in project settlement

    Dear all,
    I am new in PS and hopefully I can have a clearer picture of the account entries for the best practise of a project settlement.
    This is a customer/sales project. When we post any project related expenses/revenue, we assign a WBS to the line item so that the WBS is able to capture the costs. When we run settlement (CJ88) during the month end, the net of all expenses and revenue will be posted to the system.
    1) For example, during month end total expenses is $600 and total progress billing (revenue) is $1000, what will be accounting entries of CJ88? Are the entries below correct?
    DR. WIP Settlement 400
          CR. BS A/c            400
    FYI:
    This Balance Sheet A/c (BS A/c) is shown under current asset in the Balance Sheet (t-code F.01).
    WIP Settlement is set in settlement profile (or allocation structure to be exact) while BS a/c is set in settlement rule.
    The end user is not using COPA. They always settle the costs to a G/L a/c specified in the settlement rule.
    2) What if on the 2nd month total expenses is $300 and the progress billing is $200, are the entries below correct?
    DR. BS A/c      100
         CR WIP Settlement  100
    3) In the end of the project, how are the above being settled completely? What happened to the balance in the GL account set in allocation structure (settlement costs element)??
    4) This end user chose to settle to a GL a/c so that it will be displayed under current asset in the balance sheet. Is this the only reason to settle to a GL a/c?
    5) If the Q1-Q2 above are rather confusing, what would be the best practise for a company without COPA settling the costs/revenues to a G/L?
    Thank you.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    hmm... the end user is not using any RA key/method.
    They execute the settlement without running KKA2.
    1) is it possible to do that?
    I have done some reading on RA and here is my understanding:
    KKA2 is basically used to calculate WIP and CJ88 is to post this WIP to any receiver.
    but I find it difficult to fully understand in terms of the postings (accounting entries).
    2) Can you provide any example in terms of accounting entries, from the expenses charge into the WBS to the periodic settlement and finally the final settlement? (Not able to find 1 in SAP Help)
    Thank you.
