Assignment of cost centers and profit centers

Hi Friends,
can anybody give me a series of steps of assignment of cost centers and profit centers, like I know there is a T.code 3KEH, but I really dont know the chronological (step by step) order of steps to be followed to assign the cost centers to profit centers, as profit centers cannot be directly posted to and as the postings.
And above all when I see the info about 3KEH, it says we need to assign only balance sheet items there and not cost items.
Basically I've not studied Profit center accounting Properly and so I'm facing this problme
If there is any documentation on this can anyone pass this on to: kiransandhyaATyahooDOTcom

Hi Sridhar,
Thnx for replying. I've gone ahead and defined cost and profit centers and did what you have told me to. Now this is where I'm stranded. How do I map profit and cost centers so that the we get the right kind of reports.
Basically, my question would be: say for eg: if we are defining Company, Co.Code, before completing with Global paramters, there are a series of steps that we need to complete, right.
Like wise, I just wanted to have a series of mandatory steps that I need to follow where the cost centers and profit centers mapping is done, atleast if I have the steps with me then I can go ahead and check the logic as to why should I define a particular step.
Like I mentioned I happened to see some information about 3KEI, so before going to 3KEI or 3KEH, are there any other steps that I need to follow.
I need to get the cost center and profit center reports, so that is what I'm looking for, and what do i need to configure, before getting to that point?
I dont have a great insight into PCA, and I was not a part of the controlling configuration, but because a person has left in between the project, I'm supposed to do this and that is the reason why I dont have much time in doing R&D, and thats the whole reason why I'm seeking inputs which would actually minimise my time of R&D, once I'm able to convince my people, then again I can sit back and try to improvise my self.

    At the time of posting fuel expenses you need to have 10 line items for each seperate cost center    or
    You can post to a one cost center inturn you can use Distribution or Assessment for re allocating to other cost centers.

  • Transporting Master data - New GLs,Cost Center and profit Center.

    Dear Friends,
    1. I have to create new GLs in Dev, Now i have to transport the new GL to Quality and Production. As per my knowledge, Master data has to created in DEV,Quality and Production.
    please suggest, is there any t.code where i can transport GL from Dev to quality and production.
    2. when Creation of the site, New Cost center,Profit center, Changes to standard hierarchy both in cost center and profit center hierarchy has to done in dev,quality and production manually.
    Any suggestions where i can do only in dev and transport to quality and production.
    3. After creating new cost center and profit center, i have to go to okb9, select the co.code,cost element and insert the new cost center and profit center in every cost element. This takes almost one hour.
    Please suggest how to reduce this manually process.
    All the help will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Sridhar Reddy

    Hi ,
    Master data is to be created in diffrent clients as it is a non transportable object .
    So in case of GL , cost centers you will have to again re run the LSMW which you had created for DEV .
    Secondly OKB9 is a transportable object , so i dont feel there should be an issue in adding it to a transportable object .
    In case of adding the values of tables in a request what you can do is create  a request , go to SE01 open the request in change mode in the objects enter TABU and enter on the relevant entries that you want to transport .
    But again one has to be very clear on what all table entries are to be transported , like SKA1 , SKB1 , SKAT etc. looking at the complexities and moving ahead with the standard way it is advisable to re run the LSMW in QUA and PRD .
    Hope this helps .

  • Change the Accounting document fields cost center and profit center

    Dear Experts,
    User has posted document with wrong profit center
    For that we subjected that he can go to the profit center actual posting T.Code 9ke0 but with that he can only change the Profit center document with that there is no accounting side updating
    I have tried with Document Change Rules, Line Item for fields cost center and profit center  in that while configuring I did not get any error message,
    But in the document I am unable to changing the same fields cost center and profit center  
    Can any body please guide me to resolve the issue?
    Essentially I want to change the Accounting document fields cost center and profit center   
    Thanks in Advance,
    Wiswanath

    Hello,
    Once the documents are posted in FI module, the system doesn't allow anybody to change the cost objects (cost center, profit center, internal order). The only fields you can change through FB02 transaction are the Line item text (BSEG-SGTXT) and the assignment (BSEG-ZUONR).
    If you want to get a change to the cost object to be reflected from FI to CO, you should reverse the FI documents with wrong cost objects and post new documents with correct cost center, profit center.
    Hope it helps you.
    Cheers,
    Daniel.

  • Cost Center and Profit Center in NewGL

    Dear all,
    We defined new customer fileld in the NewGL for spliting the document number. Everything works fine! We have only one problem.
    Afer posting a new document we see the cost center and Profit center in the classic GL. When we change to NewGL is this fields empty. Is there any customizing to do here?
    Thank you!

    Thank you very much for the information. I allready had inserts this fields. Problem here is
    we have a new customer field in NewGL ZZPMS. This field is not availible in table FAGL_FIELD_MOVE. Therefore I get a dump in RGIMOVV0.
    Now my question: This customizing is only to assign a costomer field ZZPMS to a profit center or a cost center, ect. . This mean, I will get in the NewGL the value of my ZZPMS in the profit center and cost center incase of the original values. Is this right?
    Thank you

  • Cost centre and Profit centre in one query - Authorisations not working!

    Hiya,
    I have another problem related to Analysis Authorisations.
    I have created an AA with Cost Centre and Profit centre access restricted to a certain node of a hierarchy (type 1 - this node and below). For example, the User can only run a query at Cost Centres level of Country Belgium - the query works fine. Now, the user wants to drill down by the relevant Profit centres. According to the log, the system checks for Profit centres like * and says the user is not authorised. All this, despite the fact that all Profit centres belong to country Belgium and user has been given access to see these profit centres.
    What do I need to do to enable drilldown by Profit centre? I can't make a "*" access to Profit centre as the user will be able to run other queries at global level, which is not what I can allow.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I don't know if it is relevant, but I had a similar problem when I had two characteristic each with hierarchy restrictions in one authorization object.
    I "solved" it by separting each characteristic into its own authorization object.

  • Cost center and profit center details

    Hi All
    Is there any function module or BAPI to obtain cost center and profit center details
    for a GL account. Actually I am obtaining the carry forward balance for a
    fiscal year from the table GLT0 but I am not getting the corresponding profit center
    and cost center details.
    Please suggest a way forward!
    Regards
    Ankit

    Hi,
    If you are getting data from GLT0 table, using the Account number go to SKA1/SKB1 tables and get the CostCenter(KOSTL) and Profit Center(PRCTR). If you want to get details about CostCenter, its master table is CSKS and master table for Profit Center is CEPC. you can get required info from these tables.

  • Cost Center and Profit Center Planning

    Hi,
    I have one  Co issue.  Pls Suggest me the wiseful solution.
    Cost Center and Profit Center Planning.
    For F-2008 Planning  data they have updated in the month of Aug, 07 for Profit and Loss Items and they have revised the plan data of some cost elements in the month of oct, 2007 (say 5% Increas).  when comparing the cost center report to profit center report, both are not matching.  the reason when i see and reconcile the document nos and values in between cost center and profit center reports  i found out that there are some documents are missing in the profit center report. 
    wherever plan data had revised e.g for cost element Salaries they have updated 100000 Planning cost in the month of Aug, 07.  In the month of Oct, 07 increased 5% i.e.5000. In cost center line items details i found 2 documents for Rs.100000/- and Rs.5000/-  But in Profit Center Line Items i am getting only Rs.5000/- Value Document.
    Note.  As and when KP06 Plan data has been updated Profit Center line items are generating.  It is not necessary to run any programme inorder to transfer Plan Data from cost center to profit center.
    Observations From My Side:-
    I tried to run the transaction code 1ke0. i have selected the cost object is Cost Center, version and had given Cost Center Parameter in development and quality clients and executed the same.By this time already existing data either deleting/ riversing and creating new documents fully except manually changed data in profit center through 7ke1.
    My Question is
    1.Upto what extent it will work.
    2.will it be possible to transfer data from cost center to profit center only missing documents which are available in cost center, without disturbing of existing data in profit center.
    3.suppose if i done this activity, there are some data which was already transferred from other cost objects like internatl orders & wbs elements to Profit Center. will the data get disturbed (deleted/riversed).
    Pls suggest me the wiseful way to solve the
