Events
The following events take place when the order has been delivered and settled:
The system cancels WIP posted in a previous period.
You can reduce the order balance to zero by transferring the difference between the cost of the order and the value of the delivery to stock to Financial Accounting (FI). If the price control indicator is set to S, the system debits Price Differences and credits Finished Goods Inventory Change. The system updates the assigned profit center.
The system also updates the accrual data in the material ledger, which is active in SAP S/4HANA Enterprise Management.
The system transfers the total variance to CO-PA. You can transfer the variances separately by variance category and cost element to separate value fields in costing based CO-PA.
You can create a Price Difference Splitting Profile. Here you define the assignment of "Variance Category" + "Cost-Element Group" to therefore created G/L accounts. With this Customizing activity, you can refine the FI posting to show the different variance categories for each cost element on different G/L accounts allowing you to show, for example, in your income statement, the reasons for the production differences.
