SAP Note 420307 - TSG: missing actual costs with confirmation

Summary :
When SAP users input confirmations for various transactions such as manufacturing orders or projects, they expect actual costs to be calculated and posted in Cost Accounting (CO). However, there are instances where no cost postings occur in CO. To troubleshoot, verify if actual costs are calculated upon confirmation; SAP Note 380282 may provide guidance on this. Additional reasons might involve the stock relevance setting in the cost component structure (Transaction OKTZ), where only specific configurations lead to actual cost postings. To identify if CO documents are missing for specific confirmations, utilize Transaction SE16 with table COBK and appropriate criteria. If errors are detected in cost calculation, check the postprocessing pool in COFC. If a program correction is necessary, implement relevant SAP notes and check system settings concerning cost updates and the method of entering confirmations.

Key words :
vrgng = 'rkl'            refbt = 'r'            refbn = confirmation number, apparently missing actual cost postings, control key -> actual costs update, order type -> control key, internal activity solution basically, actual cost postings, enter table cobk, including leading zeros, activity type assigned, internal activity allocates
