In this process step you can change the default message type for certain messages for WIP-Ermittlung and results analysis. Here the user-defined messages are displayed for the following functions:
- Calculation of work in process (WIP) at target costs (Product Cost by Period)
- Calculation of work in process (WIP) at actual costs (Product Cost by Order)
- Results analysis for sales orders (Product Cost by Sales Order)
- Results analysis for WBS elements (Project System)
Example
The following example is from the user-defined error management of Product Cost Planning:
There is no minimum message type for the message CK 037 "Lot size & & transferred from the costing view".
- If you set the message type to " " (Blank), the message is not displayed in the log.
- If you set the message type to "I" (Information), the message is displayed in the log. The cost estimate receives the status "calculated".
- If you set the message type to "E" (Error), the cost estimate receives the status "With errors" after the message is issued and cannot be marked and released. .
The minimum message type is "I" (Information) for the message CK 065 "The activity type & in controlling area & cannot be allocated".
- If the message type is "I" (Information), the message is displayed in the log. The cost estimate receives the status "Costed" and can be marked and released.
- If you set the message type to "E" (Error), the cost estimate receives the status "With errors" after the message is issued and cannot be marked and released.
- You cannot set the message type " " (Blank) for this message.
Requirements
Standard settings
In the SAP standard system you can find a list of the messages that can be influenced by user-defined error management in Customizing for the respective function or work area.
Recommendation
Often,during execution of the first tests for the individual functions, you will get an impression of the possibilties user-defined error management has to offer. Read the section User-Defined Error Management in Cost Object Controlling in the document Cost Object Controlling. You can find valuable information there on the use of user-defined error management.
This information can particularly useful for the calculation of work in process at target costs.
Activities
In this process step, you receive a list of the user-defined messages for the relevant function.
To change the default message type, proceed as follows:
- Position your cursor on the line with the relevant message on the column Message type. When you click on the column, a dialog box appears with the allowed message types.
- Position your cursor on the desired message type and choose Enter. The system changes the message type for the selected message.
Further notes
Note that some of the messages might be used in multiple functions. For this reason, it is possible that the settings that you make for work in process at actual costs are also used in results analysis.
