Transaction Code

CJ88

Helpful Hints

During settlement, the actual costs acquired on a project are allocated to one or more receivers. SAP automatically creates the offsetting postings to credit the sender object. The debit postings to the sender object will stay there after settlement has been executed and can be displayed. The settled costs are updated to the relevant receiver object and may be shown in reporting. Transaction CJ88 will be used to settle costs to an individual WBS element.

This procedure should be done periodically (i.e. monthly, quarterly) as determined by Capital Finance. All costs are required to be settled for the year-end close so a periodic settlement will accomplish this requirement.

It is recommended to first run most settlements in test mode with the detail list option selected. This will give you a detailed list of any errors which may need to be changed or corrected before actual settlement can run successfully.

Settlements can be reversed for individual settlement; however, only the last settlement performed for a sender can be reversed. If there have been multiple settlements to a sender within a period, the settlements must be reversed one by one.

Transaction CJ88 only allows the user to settle costs from one specific WBS element. Transaction CJ8G allows cost to be settled on a collection of WBS elements.

The R/O/C column in the field description tables below defines whether the field is required (R), optional (O), or conditional (C).

On certain screens you may have to scroll to view some data entry fields.
