Statistical WBS Element in Sales Order

Former Member

Hi,

I tried to post a sales order with a statistical WBS element but the system shows me an error saying I can't open it because the WBS is statistical (Message CJ070).

Could it be a problem of Controlling Area or Operating Cornern?

Is there a setting that allow me to open a sales order on statistical WBS element?

Thanks

Please refer to OSS note 43875.

<b>The usage of statistical WBS elements as additional account assignment in SD is not supported in the system.</b>

Only the following three account assignment are available in SD from the point of view of costs controlling/revenue controlling:

<b>1. Sales order item assigned to profitability segment (CO-PA)</b>. This is typically used in serial business where the actual costs do not have to be considered separately for each sales order. When you post the billing, the costs of sales are calculated costing-based from the standard cost estimate and transferred to the profitability analysis together with the actual revenue.

<b>2. Sales order item with automatically created 'cost collector'</b>. In this case, the sales order item is a normal account assignment object in CO. Actual costs and actual revenues are managed directly in the sales order item.

<b>3. Sales order item assigned to (nonstatistical) WBS element.</b> In this case, the WBS element manages the actual costs and the actual revenues for the sales order item.

Combinations of these procedures in a sales order item are not supported.
