Unit 3 Exercise 7 Create an Internal Order

Business Example As a member of the finance department of your company, you nee d to control overhead cost, and also exercise control through budgets. Internal orders are objects within SAP S/4HANA Finance solution that help to fulfill this requirement. You analyzed costs and posted costs to a cost center. You now have a look at another object of Overhead Cost Controlling namely the internal order. Internal orders can have differe nt purposes. In the following exercise steps, create and use an internal order that serves the purpose of an investment measure. In that case, an internal order can also be called an investment order. Assume in the following exercise that you want to acquire a new laptop. To monitor the acquisition, create an internal order within the Manage Internal Orders SAP Fiori App using order type 0600 (Internal Orders: Investment). Almost all needed data is proposed from a model order that is assigned to the order type in Customizing. Change the description of your new order in Laptop acquisition group ##  (## = group number). Do also change the profit center to T-PCA##  (## = your group number) and the Cost Center Responsible to your Cost Center T-CCS## (## = your group number) Save your internal order and write down the order number: ________________________

Note: After saving the internal order, stay in the Order Manager screen.

After creating the order you should now check the status of the order and the allowed transactions Check the status of the order and write it down: _______________________________ If you want to monitor the actual postings to an internal order with an availability control automatically, you need to have a budget value. Use the SAP Fiori App Maintain Original Internal Order Budget to set a budget of 1000 €  for your order. Verify the status of your internal order in the Manage Internal Orders app. In addition to the Released and the Asset Under Construction exits status, the Availability Control Active, and Budgeted statuses are also displayed. Now post the received invoice for the laptop with the SAP Fiori App Create Incoming Invoice subledger Accounts Payable. Of course you will use your internal order with the posting.

Exercise 7: Create an Internal Order

Post, in company code 1010 , a vendor invoice for vendor T–AC## (## = your group number). The gross amount for the laptop is EUR 880. Use tax code 1I (10% input tax). The expense account is 65150000 (Computer supplies) Now analyze whether the values posted can be seen on your internal order by the use of the SAP Fiori App Internal Orders Plan/Actual. Analyze how much of the budget has been used so far for your order by using the SAP Fiori App Maintain Original Internal Order Budget. Settle the actual costs of your internal order that you created to monitor the acquisition of a laptop. First, execute a test run. If the test run is successful, display the details list of the settlement and have a closer look at the sender and receiver of the settlement.

Hint: The actual costs for the laptop must be capitalized in the balance sheet. It is not allowed to leave the costs in the profit and loss statement. The asset under construction, created automatically when creating the internal order, is the default receiver of the order settlement. That means that you can settle the internal order (to FI) without manually maintaining a settlement rule. To do so log on to the SAP GUI as described in Menu  Accounting Controlling Internal Orders Functions Settlement Individual Processing. →

→

 and follow the menu path SAP Period-End Closing Single

Test Run checkbox

Select the Test Run checkbox. After the processing completes without errors, and after analyzing the detail list, run the settlement without selecting the Test Run checkbox.

During the settlement, you should find information on your asset under construction. Note down its number: _____________________ Verify if the costs of your internal order are completely settled by using the SAP Fiori App Internal Orders Plan/Actual Analyze the values in the financial statement. Analyze the A S S E T S balance sheet item to display, among others, the value of your new laptop.

Close the window opened during the process and return to the SAP Fiori Launchpad Settle the actual costs of your internal order that you created to monitor the acquisition of a laptop. First, execute a test run. If the test run is successful, display the details list of the settlement and have a closer look at the sender and receiver of the settlement.

Hint: The actual costs for the laptop must be capitalized in the balance sheet. It is not allowed to leave the costs in the profit and loss statement. The asset under construction, created automatically when creating the i nternal order, is the default receiver of the order settlement. That means that you can settle the internal order (to FI) without manually maintaining a settlement rule. To do so log on to the SAP GUI as described in Menu  Accounting Controlling Internal Orders Functions Settlement Individual Processing. →
