I have some questions about work task reposting rules. Any help is appreciated.Posting type M93 is reposted to posting type TP3, which allows the user to control account based on Cost Codes. For M92, there is no reposting. Normally, the same accounts is used for M92 and M93. But that is not possible for work task related cost if M92 cannot be reposted as well. In the Work Task Cost Code Rules, in WIP Reversal Conditions I can select Task Finished and Task Completed. It is not clear to me when a task is considered to be Completed. The task completed option is also not mentioned in the online documentation, about ‘WIP (Work in Progress)’. I have selected in Work Task Cost Code Rules, ‘Transferred to CO’ or ‘CO Line Invoiced’ as WIP Reversal Conditions. I have created two cost transactions and set one of them (external purchase of non-inventory) to not invoiceable. When is WIP released for the not invoiceable line? I would expect it would be released when the work task is finished and tried every transfer function, but the cost code on the transaction stays in WIP. Only by releasing WIP manually, the cost code is updated. Is there another way to release WIP via a batch function? How do our customers reconcile the WIP account for work tasks? I can’t find an operational report for it. The best that I can think of is a query on Work Task Postings Analysis with filters on Cost Code (=WIP) and Transaction Date (<= reporting date). To prevent performance issues, a filter on Finally Posted (=No) should be added. You then need to export the results to Excel and add a pivot table to get WIP by work task. Or is there another solution for this? If multiple invoices are created for the same work task and WIP reversal condition cannot be set to ‘Transferred to CO’ or ‘CO Line Invoiced’, there might be revenue in the income statement where cost remains on the WIP accounts. Is there a way to repost sales transactions to a WIP account? Or to create an interim voucher for the cost balances as long as the work task is open?
