Remarks

·        The settlement amount for fixed-price joint products is always zero, so no posting record is generated.

·        You may not use fixed-price joint products as the only settlement receivers. There has to be at least one receiver to which the full remaining balance can be settled.

·        It is also possible for both joint production and individual batch valuation to occur in the same order. In this case, the costs are first distributed in accordance with the settlement rule for joint production. Quantity-based distribution for the individual batches is then executed (if applicable).
