    In a general way, we might have several issues:

    FI posting without COPA posting

    • CO objects (cost centers, orders, WBS elements) not completely settled.
    • Process order confirmations reversed on a different period with a different standard price.
    • Deliveries shipped but not billed.
    • Sales invoices not released to accounting (VFX3).
    • Returns: product returned to stock without credit memo or with a credit memo w/o quantity.
    • Direct trading: receipt without billing.

    COPA posting without FI posting 

    • Direct manual posting in COPA only (document type Z).
    • Direct trading: billing without goods receipt.
    • Returns: credit memo issued without movement type 45X.

    Variance between the amount posted in FI and the amount posted in COPA for the same operation.

    • New material: calculation of the first standard price after some deliveries or production.
    • Release of new standard cost of the material between delivery and billing on the month of the delivery.
    • Variance rounding up.
    • Return: movements 651 and 45X entered on different periods than credit memo.
    • Qualification Delayed & Eco Services: Shipped material code different from billed material code. When there is a difference between standard costs of the material codes involved.
    • Deletion of a standard cost and recalculation of a new one between shipment and billing.

    A check by plant/material should be done after corrections have been applied to guarantee that everything is OK.

    At the end of the analysis and correction process, the gap should be equal or near 0.
