Why Canceled Work Orders are not considered for Cost Accounting Distributions?

Summary:

Our cost profile is setup for costing of provisional completions at WO Close. This is working fine for 99% of the cases.

There are cases where few WOs are canceled after reverting all the transactions because those were done by mistake.

In this case, the WOs are preferred to be Canceled rather than closing them because of business KPI indicators driven based on WOs closed for the period.

We are facing the issue of cost accounting errors in getting such WO transactions costed. Oracle gives below error which doesn't seem to be valid.

The work order completion transaction was not processed because the work order associated with this transaction has not yet been closed.
