Executing the Settlement 

Usage

Projects are used to collect costs on a temporary basis. During period-end closing, the system settles the costs and revenues incurred on the project.

In the settlement rule, you stipulated that the actual results analysis data of the billing element is to be settled to Financial Accounting and to the profitability segment. The costs of the lower-level objects were included in the calculation of the results analysis data on the billing elements, and cannot therefore be settled separately.

In this process step, you settle the profits of the given period to Profitability Analysis, and post the provisions or inventory costs to Financial Accounting.
