Dear Friends,

My client wants to post variances ( usage & price) in different GL account at the time of settlement. Is it possible ? If yes please let me know how ?

Thanks a lot

Hi!

This is possible through PA Transfer Structure through Transaction KEi1. Here you can define different variances ie. usage, Quantity & price etc...through source assigned and different value fields created in COPA for different kind of variances.

In PA transfer structure, you can assign Cost Element or CE Group with variance category. While in value field tab you an assign value field created for the same type of varince in COPA against that type of varice.

Pls get back to me for further clarity.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi!

You can assign different variances to cost elements in PA transfer structure or Cost Element Group in PA transfer structure.

Based on that also, you can have different variances to be pulled in COPA based on different value fields. You can test the same in your Sand Box or Development client.

For further query, pls get back to me.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

Variance calculation posting is possible in FI with only one GL account.but in COPA you can analyze different variance by creating different value field in COPA.

in OBYC t.code PRD-PRF is the key where you assign gl account for variance postings.

in FI you can analyze in one account,but in COPA you can analyze by variance catogery wise.

for this you have to create the following.

1.Settlement profile configuration,

Your settlement receivers are Material and COPA segment only,if your selecting any others,remove.

there is check box settle variance to cost based COPA,check this box.

2.Allocation structure

Create your allocation structure confiuration.

3.PA transfer structure.

Create PA transert structure configuration and assignment of correct values fields for variance.

hope this helps you.

Thanks,
