Line Item Report 

Use

Line item reports list the line items for the internal orders you have selected.

You can use the line item report to select individual posting documents.

Features

There are line item reports for actual costs and plan costs, as well as for commitments and settlement data.

Unlike ordinary order reports, the line item reports (except the report for plan line items) are programmed. This means that you do not create them using Report Painter.

Actual Line Items

Actual line items are created each time you post actual costs. They contain information about the posted amount, the posting date, and the user who posted the item.

When you start an actual-line item report, you need to limit the line items to be read by entering an order (or order group), a cost element (or cost element group) and a posting period. Additionally, you can configure different layouts to control the appearance of the report.

You can go directly from a line item on the list to the corresponding document. This may be a Financial Accounting document (created by posting to a general ledger account), or a Controlling document (created by a posting within Controlling). A document usually has more than one line item.

You can also display line item reports for actual costs that have been archived. You can find more information in the SAP Library under Financials ® CO Controlling ® Cost Center Accounting ® Information System ® Interactive Information System ® Report Painter Report ® Reading Standard Reports from Archives

For incorrect line items, you can trigger an adjustment posting straight from the report via Extras ® Correction request.

Settlement of Actual Line Items

The report lists all actual line items from the order settlement.

Commitment Line Items

You can find more information on commitments line item reports in the SAP Library under Financials ® CO Controlling ® Internal Orders ® Planning in Internal Orders ® Commitments Management

Plan Line Items

During order planning, line items are only created if the order status specifies that planning documents should be written. Therefore, plan line items only document changes to the plan values, which occurred when planning documents were written for the order.

A plan line item contains all periods of a fiscal year, thus documenting simultaneously all period values changed during one planning transaction. The system creates a row for each cost element and document number. This row contains the total of the changed plan values and plan quantities.

Plan line item reports are only available if plan line items are updated. To do this, go to customizing and choose Controlling ® General Controlling in the Organization ® Maintain Versions, Select the Integrated Planning indicator in the settings for each fiscal year.

You can only call up plan line items as a target report from other reports using the report/report interface .
