Deriving Fund center/Commit.Item at maintenance order-item level

[Former Member]

Hi ,

We are using PM order with operation account assignment. This enables settlement of cost at operation level. At operation level SAP has provided equipment. The cost at item level gets settled to cost center maintained in the equipment maintained at operation level.

Now we need to activate funds management. Standard FM will use FMDT_READ_ORDER_PM_FROM_FMZUOB. The input parameter for this function module is order number. However we need a function module where I can input order number and operation number so that FC & Comm.Item is determined automatically .

I believe  this feature is available in ECC6.0 SP6. We are in SP4 and can't upgrade to SP6 immediately.

We are planning to use PM order exits to read each operation and manually write program to derive FC & Comm.Item . Deriving fund center is not a big task but since a order operation can contain many cost elements (material or service) , we are finding it difficult to write logic for derving committment item.

We also need to write code to enter comm.amount in FMZUOB table which is also tough.

Hence I seek some expert guidance to know how this can be achieved ?

Thanks in advance

How do you settle cost to the cost center in a equipment instead of the one defined in a settlement rule?
