Check Order
Types
Here you check the control parameters for
the
order types . The order type depends on the client. That is, any
order type can be used in any controlling area and plant.
The following parameters are relevant for the
production order and for the
process order:
Production orders in
the Production Planning module have
order category 10.
Production orders
without a quantity structure (production orders in CO) have order category
04.
Process orders have
order category 40.
The order categories
are predefined in the standard system. They characterize the technical
attributes of your orders. For example, the order category determines the
functions you can use when processing an order.
When allocating
costs between orders and other CO objects (such as cost centers or projects),
you can specify that the partner information should be recorded and that the
system is to write a
totals record for each order. To be able to see information in
Cost Object Controlling on which partner objects were credited (such as which
cost center was credited by an activity allocation for an order), set the CO
partner update to "partially active".
You can specify that
orders of this order type are to be classified. As a rule, it is not necessary
to classify orders. See the Cost Object Controlling Information
System documentation in the R/3 Library for more
information.
You must activate
the commitments management function explicitly for each order
type.
In the
settlement profile you specify the settlement receivers for this
order type. You can also assign a settlement profile to an order type at a
later time.
- Handling Orders That Are Part of a
If you use
collective orders, you can decide whether automatic goods movements should
take place for the collective order. SAP recommends the use of collective
orders with automatic goods movements, which is the default system
setting.
Note:
The full
functionality of
- Residence Time of Orders in the
System
Here you define how
long your orders are to remain in the system before they are
archived.
You must assign each
order type to a number range.
An order can have
multiple statuses. The status controls which business transactions are allowed
on the order.
For a detailed
description of the different status management options, see the Extended Help
under Internal Orders . (Extended Help can only be accessed
from the application.)
The
function area in the order is always taken from the order type
of the manufacturing order (never from the sales order or project). The
function area can be changed manually in the
manufacturing order as long as no movement data (for example, goods movements
or cost postings) exist for the order.
Not the
following:
When you assign a
manufacturing order to a product cost collector, the function area of the
product cost collector is taken over by the system in the master data of the
manufacturing order. In this case, the function area in the master data of the
manufacturing order can no longer be changed.
You can find more
information on the function area in the SAP library under FI->
Cost-of-Sales Accounting.
For production orders in CO (production orders
without a quantity structure) you can also set the following
parameters:
The field attributes
define the fields of an order as display fields, input fields, or hidden
fields. For more information, see the Implementation Guide for
Overhead cost orders.

Actions
1. Check the
supplied order types to see if they meet your requirements.
2. If
necessary, contact the project team for production orders, process orders, or
overhead cost orders and define new order types jointly with
them.
