Purpose
Use this procedure to settle internal order cost and revenue postings for a single internal order.
Trigger
Perform this procedure when you need to settle actual costs (or revenues) for a single internal order.
Note : Internal Order settlement is a part of the month-end scheduled tasks carried out by Central Accounting. Corrections or adjustments on the settlement for a single internal order may require this transaction. Furthermore, late postings of actual costs to internal orders (after the month-end is closed) may require an additional run of the settlement process for those internal orders.
Prerequisites
Settlement rule is defined for the order.
Actual costs are posted (otherwise, a report with "No list" is generated).
The internal order is relevant for settlement process.
The internal order shoud be either in REL - Released or TECO - Technically Complete status.

Helpful Hints
R/O/C column in tables represents Required, Optional, or Conditional entry.
Always conduct a Test Run to verify the posting and amounts before running the actual settlement.
You may reverse a settlement using this same transaction. Instead of completing Step 6, use the menu path: Settlement Reverse .
Only the last settlement performed for a sender may be reversed.
o If you have settled a sender more than once within a period, you must also reverse those settlements one by one. To do so, first reverse the last settlement for the period, then the second-to-last, and so on.
