Closing Cock

👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻 ALL INFORMATION CLICK HERE 👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻

Posted on September 25, 2014 6 minute read
The closing cockpit is a very powerful tool in SAP Financial System which provides a structured interface for executing transactions and programs that form part of complex processes such as periodic and annual closing processes. The tree structure supports processes within an organizational structure such as a company code, as well as scenarios impacting multiple organizational structures. The closing cockpit as a tool is very useful in scenarios:
1. The activities are repeated periodically
2. Multiple people are responsible for completion of tasks
3. The activities are performed in a chronological order
4. A collaborative view is required by all people or units involved with a clear overview for dependencies
Two of the basic structural elements of a closing cockpit configuration is:
1. Template – The template contains the list of steps to be executed, the sequence in which they need to be executed
2. Task List – The task list contains the information contained in the template along with the actual date of execution.
The major steps in the configuration for a closing cockpit have been listed in the diagram below:
The path for accessing the closing cockpit configuration is as under:
The first prerequisite for configuring the closing cockpit is to register the programs in the table SCMATRANSACT. This can be done using SM30 or the closing cockpit configuration itself as shown below:
The complete list of programs which are already registered is shown. You can add additional programs including custom programs by clicking on “New Entries” as below:
Just like the programs, all the transactions which need to be execute from closing cockpit must also be registered as shown below:
Similar to Programs, you can add the custom Z or Y Transactions as well to the closing cockpit in addition to the standard transaction codes. Once the above prerequisites have been completed, we are now ready to start the configuration steps for the closing cockpit.
Creation of Organizational Hierarchies
The configuration starts with the creation of organizational hierarchy. The creation of organizational hierarchy allows to distribute the closing process in terms of organizational structures. If org elements like profit center are used in SAP system, it essentially means that segregation can be done at this level as well.
Follow the path shown in the screen shot above to start creating the Organizational Hierarchy. If the standard delivered organizational elements are not sufficient for the Business Requirement, you can add more organizational elements for Closing Cockpit as shown below:
Add the field value which needs to be added for creating the organizational hierarchy. When the field has been added, now you can specify the name of your organizational hierarchy as below:
A template is used to create the individual steps in a process chain. The template is therefore a collection of tasks which need to be executed in a particular sequence keeping in orientation the overall process and organizational units involved.The steps to configure organizational template is as under:
Be mindful of the fact that the Create Template is available only in the change mode for T Code CLOCOC.
A pop up box will appear in which you can define the name of the template and also link the same to the Closing Hierarchy. You can also link it to a Factory Calender and define other time dependent attributes for the template.
When you press enter, the template is saved. Now you create all the subfolders in the order in which the activities need to be executed.This represents a systematic view of completing the closing activities.
You can right clock to modify a folder properties or to create a new sub folder
Once the folders have been created, now we need to add the task to in the form of individual activities that need to be performed as part of the overall process in the task list. This can be an execution of a transaction code or a program. For creating a task in sub folder, right click on the same and click on add task as shown below
The tasks can be created in the following types:
You can specify the planned run time of the activity. If the same has a deadline for completion, the same can be marked as “Critical Path” and it will display accordingly in the cockpit. You can also specify the usage of the task highlighting the usage of the same, whether the same is used in month end or period end or year end closing.
In the closing cockpit, you can also portray dependencies for a preceding step as well for a task. This allows that the preceding task is completed first successfully before execution of the current task in hand. This is an important step to plan a smooth closing.
Click on any task and on the Dependencies tab, right click to add a dependent task
The task will than show up as a preceding task as shown below
The next step in the configuration is the generation of the task list. Follow the steps as shown below
Here the name of the task list and template is same. This means that we are generating the same out of task list template. The key date is entered along with the type of closing and fiscal year details. By default task list is not in released status.While saving, if the task is ok, save it as released. This will allow the task to be scheduled.
Once all the tasks are in released, these can now be scheduled as part of month end processes.
There are standard templates for closing cockpit delivered which can also be used.
Depending on the requirements, you can create your own task list or use the standard ones.

Rated! Liked! Book Marked! Good work. Keep it up.
Thanks Ravi. Your feedback is indeed encouraging.
Could you explain the relevance of adding customer transaction and program into that table & which program you have updated there.
The requirement for adding transactions (both SAP delivered and custom) as well as programs is because they need to be appear in the table SCMATRANSACT and SCMAPROGRAMS respectively. If the transactions and programs do not appear in these tables, you would not be able to create a task for them in the closing cockpit. The program I have added is for illustrative purpose. You may choose the required program based on your business need, be it SAP delivered or your custom program.
Let me know if I have been able to answer your question.
Thanks Sanil. Now it seems working.
Very relevant blog! Thank you for sharing!
It is indeed a pleasure to receive appreciation.
beats spreadsheets any time, but many users are scared to use it as it takes some getting used to.
You are correct Gregory. It takes times getting used to, but is very very useful and collaborative tool especially for today's organization which have shared service centers serving multiple markets. It helps in a fast close.
Very useful sharing indeed. Keep posting.
New to many and much needed document.
Very good document. Thanks for sharing...
Well document Sanil, I must say this document will guide us what is SAP Cockpit & how it is work in real time enviornment / critical periodic processes & also who dealt with several orgnizations under one tree.
Thanks so much Mani for your encouragement.
Great work... A simple illustrative document. Thanks for sharing.
Keep the good job, thanks for sharing.
Great Work. thanks for sharing this info.
Thanks so much for the encouraging feedback.
Thanks for sharing the detailed document on closing cockpit
Thanks for sharing such a nice concept. It is indeed very helpful.
Thanks for sharing the detailed document on closing cockpit , its really good..!!
Just a question ,i want to set up 2 factory calendar in a single template for 2 different folders , can you let me know the configuration set up.it will be great help .
Can we delete the Folder in the Task list once Task list status is " Released" or " Active"
and thank you for this very helpful introduction to Closing Cockpit.
We are implementing this for one of our customers, but we are experiencing problems with calling some programs from CLOCOC, see below list.
Tcode / PGM
CO43 / SAPLKAZB (dynpro pgm)
KKAO / SAPMKKAC (dynpro pgm)
CO88 / SAPLKO71 (dynpro pgm)
KE30 / SAPMKCEE (COPA reports)
Do you have any experience regarding how we can include these programs in Closing Cockpit??? Because we are not allowed to create these programs, and it is not possible to operate with selection variants for these programs as well. So, if we need these programs in the cockpit, how do we include these?
I thank you in advance for your reply.
You can go to CLOCOC in menu Goto/Register program, and there you can find many programs - what I did is to find a program ending with the transaction code. For example:
hope it helped. if you have better solution already, please let me know.
Can any one suggest how to achieve the following requirement, if already had performed.
We have a addon Financial Closing cockpit, and now the requirement is to to consolidate all the emails that workflow sends out as individual emails to the users to one email per day. Tried to implement Custom notifications, Custom Notification Scenarios BADIs. But not getting the result.
any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Please, help me please to understand. How can i see creator of Cloco Template ? In all tcodes (cloco, clocot, clocos, clococ) when i try to view changes log, it says there is no changes at all. I could not find any table related to this. Maybe, should i switch on logging for Cloco tables or something. I just want to know which user created a templates in prod system. Thanks in advance.
in FCC 2.0 there is a change log activation option in General Customizing (SPRO-Cross Application Comp - Financial Closing Addon - General Customizing - Define General) in the Change Document section. When checked logging will be turned on
could you tell me, in which SAP or FCC table the logging of the programs, job and transactions is stored?
Can anyone advice on how to access the below listed closing cockpit reports? I couldn't able to find any SAP standard reports on FCC on S4HANA 1610 (on prem)
I believe they may be available in BW, else FIORI
Yes we have managed to find in BW. Thanks James
Does anyone have a solution for the planning does not take into account the closed days (Saturday / Sunday, etc...) on ECC6.
take a look at using the Factory Calendar option on the template header. Different Factory Calendars can be assigned based on the folder level (eg. if for a UK co code you can use "GB", or leave blank if you want to use days of the month).
Many thanks for this post, it is helpful.
I just have some more questions concerning the roles I need to set up in CLOCOC. I am trying to implement the closing cockpit for a company with several desks in different countries. Each desk should have its own list of tasks within the same hierarchy. I chose the Controlling Area/Company code hierarchy, and copy paste the task list for each desk/company. I would like to know following :
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Very nice article!!. Do you know by any chance know the table where status of a task is stored?  TFC_INST_ITEM has a list of all tasks but don't see the status of it.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for being generous on the FCC setup, Sanil
and thanks to all contributors on this link!
Has anyone seen this issue; For some tasks (type; Job) The Actual end Date and Time is shown correctly when the Job has been run and the task is complete. Then after some time, the Actual end Date and Time is reset to 00:00:00. (the Change document and the Job logs still show the correct Actual end Date and Time).
ECC6 Ehp, Release of FCC SAPK-20007INFCCO
Thanks for your detail information.
I am currently working on S/4HANA 1709 system and when I am trying to customize new template I did not see Organization Hierarchy option on top tool bar. I have created new sub folders with Controlling Area and Company code but I am not able to assign the relevant client codes in it.
Can we use the closing cockpit for non FI tasks?, for example, recently a customer ask me for a list of sales order which are not yet billed on a daily basis
Not sure if is a good idea to include this kind of requirements in the closing cockpit, so all involved parties have a common view of the remaining process to be executed after creating a sales order (i.e it must be billed)
To me this sounds like a report or a collective task list.. I have had people develop production cockpit, logistics cockpit, sales cockpit which are Portal I views or web dynpro screens..  this is the way to go..  In case you are using S4 Hana I would recommend a UI5 launchpad with notifications !!
Theoretically you can. However, I would not suggest to do that. Rather I would schedule a VA05 or VA06 in a background job with a suitable variant, generate end of day spool in the system and send it to a distribution list daily to billers in my organization, so that they get daily job information and create billing on time. That would be much more efficient and better way to do this
Very informative and well articulated
This is an excellent one like your other ones. thanks for sharing your expertise here.
For our client, I am currently setting up the Financial Closing Cockpit (FCC) in 1809 where I am unable to see a notification after I change the status to complete. I believe this should trigger a notification right in this case too post changing the status to ‘Task Complete’. I am using the task type as ‘Note’. Also, please let me know whether any standard workflow for this to accommodate the approval process
Thank you for the excellent exposition on FCC. Is it possible to have notifications that can send out emails? I am looking this for both SAP ECC and S/4HANA solutions.
