The outcome of this report allow us to compare COGS amount in FI and in COPA and find out where do discrepancies come from : 

  • The material master record (if the material has a Standard Cost Estimate)
  • The invoice whose number appears on this report
  • The order





All differences by material should be analyzed in detail and corrected, according to this file.



A check by plant/material can be done after corrections have been applied. The file FI COPA CONTROL.xlsm gives an example of the report. The corrections are recorded in the FI column in the KE30 report ZZZ-SOLV01.


  • Manual Postings in account 98350050 with cost center XXXX-9200 (XXXX stands for company code);
  • Manual Postings in COPA derivation accounts 98154199, 98258199 and 98254199;
  • MR11 postings in account 98150363 (documents beginning with  48*).

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