Reprocessing COPA Settlement

[harnish_shah]

Requirement:

We are processing cost postings to a WBS which in turn is settled to CO-PA at the month end - One of the data object in settlement rule (i.e. Material) is a dummy value at this point as the actual material is not known & hence the settlement is to a dummy material.

At a later point in time, the actual material is known which is planned to be updated in the settlement rule of the WBS. Business expectation is to update the revised/actual material in CO-PA via settlement update so that management reporting is accurate.

From solution standpoint, we know we could reverse the settlement and repost the same but would like to understand if there is another way we could automatically process the settlement (Account Based CO-PA)

Thanks.
