[Former Member]

    Hi gurus,

   I have created project and created level 1 wbs element then i book the actual cost for level 1 wbs element.

   Then same project i have created level 2 wbs elements, i want to transfer the actual cost from level one to level 2 wbs elements.

Example : level 1 SS-0000001

                 level 2 SS-0000001-M

   here i have booked the actual cost (PO/FI)  wbs element is SS-0000001, then i want to transfer wbs element level SS-0000001 to level 2 SS-0000001-M.

    i am trying to post through in tcode KB15N but it's asking enter cost element.

please suggest on this process.

Hi Siddu,

You can do the transfer of cost using KB11N or KB15N or Journal Entry FB01.  As KB15N/KB11N are CO transactions you need to specify the Cost elements for re-posting the actual cost..

And in FB01 you need to specify the GLs..

You can use the same CEs which were used to book the Cost for the first WBS or else you can take help from your FICO guys to get the correct CE/GL to do the re-postings..

Hi Siddu,

Is it something you did by mistake and need a one time correction or something you want as a permanent process?

Before jumping to technical solutions (that are many) it is important to answer it first.

I recommend to keep account assignment indicators only for lowest level WBS-elements once this is corrected and if considered as a mistake.

Hi Siddu,

If you are defining any process like this then :-

Use Transaction KB11N and select Scrn Var "05" which is WBS element/network to transfer cost from one wbs to another wbs.

else to avoid this type of mistak i also recommend to keep account assignment indicators only for lowest level WBS-elements not for all.

Hi

  Thanks for reply, but we are using account assignment category is "Q". if we assign act. assignment category is "P" it' allow to transfer the cost.

    when acct.assignment category provide "Q" pick the GL's is current asset and if we assign acct.assignment "P" pick the consumption gl's.

Please suggest.

Hi Siddu,

The account assignment category has no role in re-postings.. The re-postings is done to change the actual cost on the cost object..

The account assignment only determines which cost objects gets hit once you do the GR/GI..

Hi Siddu,

You need to go for Journal Entry FB01 or Settlement to another WBS element or Try in KB11N.

Kindly search online, you will get lot of options
