Cost element in maintenance order for external services

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am using PM03 control key for external services and entering servicemaster record for services. In configuration for default value for external procurement a default cost element is maintained.In the maintenance order, the cost element gets picked from the OBYC settings for the valuation class maintained in the service master. The user changes this cost element to a cost element of his choice in the maintenance order for the line item of service master record and it accepts the changed cost element. However after saving the order and checking the PR account assignment , the cost element that was changed does not come. The cost element captured there is the cost element that was maintained in OBYC settings. Is this standard system behaviour ? Is there a way the user can have the cost element of his choice in the PR and then PO?

best regards,

Arun

Hi,

If you want cost element of your choice, remove material group of service entered in maintenance order. Then the system will pick the cost element, which you have entered.
