Symptom
Service Entry Sheet is created and submitted for approval. However, when running Post Periodic Accrual, no accrual postings generated.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Create Service Entry Sheet following Test Script of Scope Item 22Z
- Run the job Post Periodic Accruals
- Observe that no accrual postings is generated.
- In the app “Display Service Entry Sheet Accruals”, check the accrual object status and see Status F – Prematurely Finished.
- In the app “Manage Service Entry Sheets”, verify the service entry sheet document status is Approved (30).
Cause
Accruals are only calculated for unapproved service entry sheets (document status 20). If a service entry sheet is Approved (status 30), the related accrual object is finalized (Prematurely Finished), and no accrual postings are generated.
Resolution
- Review current approval behavior for service entry sheets. By default, if no workflow is defined, service entry sheets are approved automatically upon submission.
- Configure a workflow for service entry sheet approval so that service entry sheets remain unapproved (document status 20) until explicitly approved.
- Create or submit the service entry sheet and ensure it stays in unapproved status (20).
- Run the job Post Periodic Accruals.
- Verify that accrual postings are generated.
