After you implement Note 1280358, the costs of a combined order are not settled completely.
Other terms

CO8B, KO88, settlement, combined order, default rule, PP5, PP6
Reason and Prerequisites

The settlement is a periodic settlement with the default rule PP6. You have implemented Note 1280358.
Solution

Implement the program corrections.

1. Repeated periodic settlement with PP6 ruleSymptom In a repeated periodic settlement of an order header, the system completes the settlement without any error messages and generates a settlement document even if no changes (new cost, change of...
2. Settlement rule generated automatically: KD 104Symptom You use the automatic generation of the settlement rule. When you change the relevant object (for example, the internal order that was previously settled), the system issues KD 104 “Enter a...
3. Settlement of variances in Release > 4.6Symptom After upgrading to Release 4.6, you receive the error message KF 018 (’Complete PA transfer structure FI’) for the settlement of variances. Other terms KF018, KF 018, settlement, price differences, variances,...
4. Improving performance of validation of settlement rulesSymptom The validation of settlement rules can in some cases result in performance problems. This primarily concerns complex scenarios in the project system. The performance problems do not only occur when you...

In a repeated periodic settlement of an order header, the system completes the settlement without any error messages and generates a settlement document even if no changes (new cost, change of delivery quantity) have been made since the last settlement.
The generated settlement document results in a total of zero and the system does not generate any follow-on documents.

The intial launch of transaction KKP4 or transaction KKP6 takes very long.
The performance is very low.
Other terms

Cost object hierarchy, CL_COST_OBJECT_TREE, KKP4, KKP6
Reason and Prerequisites

The initial time frame these transactions/reports are called is set to 01/1900 – current period.
Solution

Please apply the attached correction.
By this correction the default time frame is derived from the previous period, i.e. if current date is 01/18/2008 it is set to 12/2007 – 12/2007. Changes of the time frame are memorized as long as the session is active.
