WBS Element not appearing in Sales Order Line Item
Question
Why Field WBS Element (COBL-PS_POSID) is not displayed at the Sales Order Line Item?
- Go tx. VA02
- Select item and go to tab: Account assignment
Reason and analysis
Once the KZVBR is determined on sales order line item with ‘E’ so after entering the plant the field WBS element is not displayed.
Please check your customising:
1. In the sales order, check the requirements type (VBAP-BEDAE).
- Sales order (VA02) check requirement type on tab “Procurement” :
2. In OVZH, check the requirement class assigned to the requirements type.
3. In OVZG, for the requirement class, check the “Account Assignment Category” (V_T459K-KNTTP).
4. In OME9, check the “Consumption posting indicator” (V_T163K-KZVBR).
If you want the WBS element (COBL-PS_POSID) to be displayed in the sales order item, this “Consumption posting indicator” should not be E or P.
Summary of Transactions:
OVZI: Assign the requirement type to the item category
OVZH: Assign the requirement class to the requirement type
OVZG: Customize the requirement class (select the Acct.assig.cat)
OME9: Customize the Account Assignment Category (select the consumption posting indicator VBAP-KZVBR)

Hi zsuzsanna,
Have you checked strategy field (with 85) assigned in Material master or not?
Check whether you are assigning exact requirement class to requirement type?
Because requirement type is defined based on item category and MRP type
combination.Also check whether the exact requirement class is assigned with respect
to Assembly/internal project , requirement type and item category combination.

Hi zsuzsanna
I have few comments to make here.
1. We dont generally change any account assignment settings in customisings. We only use the correct AAC in requirements class.
2. If a WBS element has to be used as account assignment object in Sales order, there are some preconditions apart from the requirement class
a) As you have said, the account assignment indicator should be P or Q, and the special stock indicator can be either sales order based "E" or project based "P"
b) The set up mentioned in a alone will not help us to assign a WBS in the sales order item. The WBS element should be marked as an "Account Assignment element" which is one of the 3 functions a WBS can perform. If this is not done, then assignment of that WBS in SO is not possible.
Having said these, the document you have created captures the essence of how requirement class works which not many are aware of. Thanks for this contribution
