Process to Find Costs on Work Orders

Select T-code IW39

Select Settlement Receiver

Enter CostCenter in Cost Center Field and click the “Green Check Clock”

Check all order status boxes and change the period information as shown to get work orders for a given time period and then click the “Green Check Clock” to execute the report

Use caution in limiting the time period as work orders could have been established prior to the date you specify but could have charges during the time period you specify.

For example, a work order could be set up on 6/1/08 and has charges on it through 10/31/08. If you specify a time period of 7/1/08 to 10/31/08, this work order would not be included in your selection criteria.

Time period refers to when a work order was created, not when transactions post to a work order.
All work orders for this cost center will be returned. Highlight the order column by clicking on the word “order”. Once the column is highlighted, hold down the “Ctrl” key and the “C” key on your keyboard to copy this data to the clip board.

This will enable you to have the work orders that were once active and settled against your cost center for a given time period. You can now research the costs charged to them and ultimately your cost center.

Select T-code KOB1

Select Order field so you can copy in work orders from the previous transaction

The results returned for the time period specified are displayed below.

The work order name and number are listed along with the cost element (GL) and name. The report is subtotaled by work order and includes a grand total for the all work orders listed.

If you create your own layout, you will need to filter on cost element and exclude 890001 to 899999 as these are work in process settlement cost elements.
