3340249 - Landed Cost – Monitor and Set Clearing Status for Goods Receipts Report: Change Status to Open

Symptom

You want to use the Landed Cost – Monitor and Set Clearing Status for Goods Receipts report (Report ID FININVU24_Q0001) to revert the Landed Cost Clearing Set Status from 'To Be Cleared' to 'Open', however, this option is not available in the report.

Environment

 SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Business Analytics work center.
  2. Go to the Design Reports view.
  3. Open the Landed Cost – Monitor and Set Clearing Status for Goods Receipts report (Report ID FININVU24_Q0001).
  4. Enter respective data selection.
  5. Find the respective Landed Cost Clearing Set ID and notice that the Landed Cost Clearing Set Status is 'To Be Cleared'.
  6. Left click over the respective Landed Cost Clearing And Component --> Execute Actions.
  7. Notice that the only option available is 'Change Status to be Cleared'.

Cause

After the status has been set to 'To Be Cleared' it cannot be reverted.

Resolution

This report and the available action to set landed cost clearing sets to 'To be Cleared' is essential and critical for the overall landed cost process to ensure that landed cost variances and unplanned landed costs are cleared against the material ledger in a timely and responsible manner.

The report should be assigned to a business user who is very familiar with the landed cost processes in his company. It is not recommended to assign this report to an untrained business user because also these will have access to the critical action.
