How To Fix ERP_CO_OLC_E110 - Settlement rules not copied; different account assignment settings

ERP_CO_OLC_E110 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: ERP_CO_OLC_E - Messages for Operative Level Costing

• Message number: 110

• Message text: Settlement rules not copied; different account assignment settings

What causes this issue?

You want to create an order using a reference. You have entered the
order number in the <LS>Reference</> group box and selected the
<LS>Settlement Rule</> checkbox to specify that the settlement rules of
the reference order are copied to the order being created. However, this
is not possible because the reference order and the new order have
different account assignment settings in Customizing. For the
combination of plant and order type, costs are updated at header level
for one of the orders and at operation level for the other order.

System Response

The new order is created using the reference order. However, the
settlement rules of the reference order are not being copied into the
new order.

How to fix this error?

If you want settlement rules to be copied from the reference order, make
sure that the account assignment settings for the combination of plant
and order type of both the reference order and the new order are
identical in Customizing for <ZK>Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
</> --> <ZK>Maintenance and Service Orders</> --> <ZK>Functions and
Settings for Order Types</> --> <ZK>Costs at OperationLevel</> -->
<ZK>Define Cost Settings</>. In this Customizing activity you define
whether costs are updated at header or operation level depending on the
combination of order type and plant.
