U can create project specific GL acoounts/Cost elements and these can be linked using the valuation class settings in material master. check with ur CO and MM consultants.

Why does the cleint require project specific revenue elements as the standard PS reports provide all the reporting requirements of most clients. recheck with them

Hi Murli,

Can you share your contact no ?

How the system knows that at the time of goods issue it will hit the correct GL?

First of all it is not standard SAP solution to create project specific GL accounts. Beacuse in any customers legacy system, they cannot identify the cost at the project without creating a GL acoount. Thats y they assume the same in SAP also. But in SAP there are number of cost objects availbale at which u can find out the cost reports. Try to persuade in this terms with the customer.

But if the business requirement is really necessary, then at the time of rasing a PR the requisitioner knows exactly for which project he is purcahsing the material or at the time of goods issue its known to which project it is going to be consumed, then the Purchase requisitioner or Godds Issuer has to manually select the project specific GL acoount.
