Reply from Adrian_Hudgins on Jan 24 at 2:41 PM We have a similar scenario - material consumptions and time confirmations can post 1-2 days after the process order has delivered finished goods to inventory and acquired the DLV status. Variances can be calculated and settled more than once on a process order, so if a late posting is made then a second variance calculation and settlement will catch it.
We calculate and settle production variances many times during the month, to keep track of variances as they occur, and monitor the activity in PA by process order. This helps catch those late postings. In addition, as part of our monthly close procedures, our MM and PP groups must confirm that all material consumptions and time confirmations are complete by the second day of monthly close.
The system can only do but so much...sometimes you have to rely on procedures and your users.. :)

Subject: Settlement of production orders
Hi
as far as I understand SAP settles production orders when product is delivered to stock (DLV marking is set).
My problem is that when the product is delivered to stock and the DLV marking is set all material has not always been but on the production order which means that the calculated deviation to standard cost is wrong.
I would like to have a process like:
-The material is delivered to stock (DLV marking is set)
-Production planning is now checking that all material has been put on the production order (TECO marking is set)
-Settlement is run on the production order
-Production orders is closed (CLSD)
Our SAP specialists say that this can't be done, but I have heard that other companies do it this way, I just don't know how they have set up SAP to manage.
But it's a big problem that SAP begins the settlement before it has been checked that all material has been but on the production orders and that all production time has been registered correctly. And we can't wait with sending the finished goods to stock until all registrations have been checked.
Any ideas on how to solve this ?
Thanks, Søren . |
