PM Order Settlement

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have created a maintenance order with control key as PM03 (PM for External services) and then I will create a service PO with reference to that PM order. Is it necessary to make any settlement against that PM order?

Thanks & Regards,

Without settlement you will not be able to settle cost occurred for maintenance against order also you will not be able to TECO order and close business.

Hi

Ya I Agree. But i will create a service entry sheet for service PO in which jobn order is referenced. Then also we need to settle the order ah?

You will create service entry against the PO . As PO is created against order.. system will book that cost against order, . So to settle that cost you will have to create settlement rule for order and settle the cost.

Hi

Thanks for your valuable answer. If I settle and close the PM order then can I create service entry sheet for that PO in which closed order is attached.

No. If Order is closed you can not create service entry.

Actual Costs are posted after the service entry sheet accepted.

Now Costs are settled to the settlement rule to the respective cost centre or WBS, these costs are credited to order and debited from the cost centre.

Once Cost is settle then Cost on PM order will be Zero, Unless you settle the order you can't CLSD the order.
