Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Controlling Area Settings (OKKP) regulates the Hierarchy. By defualt a Hierarchy is set as Standard and SAP provides options to use Alternative Hierarchies both for CC and PC. You can create and assign it in OKKP and use via OKENN.

How to assign search help for custom cost centre field in SRM 7.0

Hi Experts!!
We are currently working in SRM 7.0.As per our business requirement, in account assignment tab we need to use a custom
cost centre field (ZCOST_CENTRE) instead of standard cost centre field.It is observed that for standard cost centre field there is a standard web-dynpro search-help assigned where it will return the F4 search help values from backend.
Can any one of you please help me how can I assign the search-help for the custom cost centre field. Is there any FM to call the backend cost centre search help for custom field or any other way how can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kalyani

kalyani,
i can see your requirement in below way..
as it just reads: you need to assign the standard cost center help to a z cost center field in component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC.. which actually is fetched though the component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH
so, if you see the component controller of SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC you will see the component
USAGE_SH_F4 /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH
USAGE_SH_F4 /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH INTERFACECONTROLLER
so you can replicate the same functionality for your z field.
but can you clarify one thing.. why are you going for this z field in place of standard field ?

Difference between Cost Centre and Cost Element.

Hi Guru's,
what is the difference between Cost Centre and Cost Element.
regards
JK

Hi,
Cost elements:
A cost element classifies the organization's valuated consumption of production factors within a controlling area
Primary Element - costs that originate outside the company; relate directly to the income statement in FI and must be included in the FI Chart of Accounts
Secondary Element - costs that result from internal allocation activities; NO relation to G/L accounts in FI. These accounts are exclusively for cost accounting and are only maintained in CO
Cost centre :
Organizational unit within a controlling area that represents a defined location of cost incurrence. The definition can be based on:
Functional requirements
Allocation criteria
Physical location
Responsibility for costs
Defines the smallest area of responsibility within the company that causes and influences costs; the lowest level to which you can meaningfully assign direct and indirect costs
If this meets your requirement, you may like to close the posting.

Custom Search Help for Functional Area of Cost Centre(KS01/KS02)

Hi,
I need to implement a custom search help and custom enhancement for the field Functional Area in Basic Data tab of Cost Centre Create/Change(KS01/KS02) transactions. Details of the requirement are as below:
1. There will be a custom relation for the Cost Centre category and Functional Area which was maintained thru a SAP standard table TKA05 and a custom table.
2.When the relation to Cost Centre category and Functional Area is a one to one it exist in the TKA05 and if its one to many it will be maintained in the custom table.
3. The requirement is when the Cost Center to Functional area is maintained in table TKA05(One to One) in this case the corresponding Functional Area needs to be populated automatically after entering the cost centre and pressing a enter key by user.
4.When the Cost Centre Category and Functional area does not exist in table TKA05 and existing in custom table(One to Many) in this case the F4 should be enabled for user selection with the list of Functional area values corresponding to the cost centre category entered that are maintained in the custom table.
As per the functionality provided by SAP the input help(F4) of the field Functional area in Cost Center does not have any relation with Cost Centre Category. The existing F4 is from the Value Table(TFKB) attached to the domain of FKBER.
Please provide your valuable inputs to implement the above requirement. Your input will be rewareded.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Prasad.

Po with account assignment cost centre

dear friends,
When creating PO with account assignment cost centre, system should default GL account (i.e G/L will be picked automatically instead of entering manually.
How this can be customized?
regards, thanks

The following configs are required.
1. SPRO -> MM -> Purchase -> Material Master -> Entry aids -> here you maintain all relevant material groups, corresponding valuation class and Purchasing valuation key
2. Then in OKB9, you will maintain company code, cost element, and cost center
3. THen in OBYC, Valuation group code, valuation class and GL account.
With the above settings, the system will automatically detemine the GL account.
Thanks and warm regards,
Jagadeesh

Hi,
This issue has been resloved.
Solution:
Step:1
Assign SRM standard or custom role like /SAPSRM/EMPLOYEE to user; Please make sure multiple values been maintained in attribute CNT cost center in PPOMA_BBP for the user
Step: 2
Disable BE_F4_HELP authority activity for role /SAPSRM/EMPLOYEE in BBP Component > SRM: General Access Authorizations in EBP
Step: 3
Apply SAP Note 668746 - COIN - Switching off OKB9 in EBP scenario in SAP R/3 as per note 815849 Solution 1
System will check during the processing of account assignment objects in an EBP scenario, the backend system reads the default account assignment (Transaction OKB9) as usual if EBP does not provide any account assignment. This note will Switch off OKB9 in EBP scenario and it will list the CNT values from PPOMA in the shopping cart account assignment F4 help.

Possibility of Having GL Control while making Cost Centre PR

Hi Experts
I have one urgent requirement..i.e. at the time of Cost Centre PR creation user should be restricted to enter only selected 2-3 GL accounts. Please suggest how can i restrict GL account at the time of PR creation.
Regards
Ajay Goel

Hi,
   In standard, you can default the GL based on the account assignment category - using the account modifier maintained against the account assignment category in OME9 and the OBYC config for GBB - <account modifier>.
   If you want to restrict the allowed entries for the GL with few GL's then there is no option in standard in MM side as of my knowledge. You may check whether you can use different field status group for the allowed GLs' (FS02 and OBD4) and then maintain different field selection for the field status group same as the field selection for the account assignment category - I didnt test the option - you may check the same.
   Else, you may go for development. If you are going for development, you may create a custom table and maintain the account assignment category and the allowed GL's - you can write logic to check the account assignment category, entered GL and the ztable and issue message accordingly.

Field cost centre is a required field for GL account Error

The error that I get during a sales transaction is: Field cost centre is a required field for GL account Error. Where or which transaction in FI do I use to maintain this setting.
Thank you.

Hi,
Goto Tcode - OKB9. Search for that G/L account number under your co. code. There select the row, you can maintain the cost center directly. Else for Account assignment detail column, keep it as 1(Valuation area mandatory). Then under new entries maintain the valuation area, which is nothing but the plant, and against that maintain the cost center.
Hope this resolves your query.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks,

Rel. strategy is not triggered while creation of PR with cost centr

Hi Gurus,
While creation of PR release strategy is not getting triggered with cost centre BCWSV870. But release strategy of PR triggered for cost centre BCWSV852 (In PR changed only cost centre as BCWSV852 instead of BCWSV870). Both cost centres are similar and the both cost centres are exist in characteristics value in CL20N for the same release strategy.
My question is why for one cost centre triggers release strategy triggers and for other cost centre release strategy is not triggered. Can you please tell how come this and rewarded for answer this.
With regards,
C. Sundar Rajan

Hi,
In regard to problematic PR with cost center BCWSV870, was your PR maintained with only one line item? or multiple line items?. In additions, when defining cost center as part of the release strategy structure, did you enter all cost centers with leading zeros? Tak a further look into OSS Note 365604 for your further investigation.
Cheers,
HT

Cost Centre Derivation Issue at the time of PGI

Dear Experts,
At the time of Posting Post Goods Issue, SD Consultant is facing error that GL Account 6* requires assignment to a CO Object.
According to my understanding, system should derive Cost Centre at the time of P.G.I through following logic :
I have assigned Profit Centre : 999999 to the Cost Centre : ABCD and the said profit centre is being used at the time of Sales Order Posting. While doing PGI, system should derive cost centre data from Profit Centre Data which is used in Sales Order but currently system is not behaving like this.
Another way is to assign respective cost centres against COGS Gls through T-Code : OKB9 which is not right I think. Because how can we map Cost Centre Data with Profit Centre Data in order to get Profit Centre Wise Profitability Reports?
Please guide me any solution.
Regards,
Sapna

Hi Sapna,
For most cases, your COGS account should not be a cost element.
Secondly, if you want to make it a cost element, you will have to maintain OKB9 for it, either on the basis of profit center or plant.
System cannot pick cost center based on the cost center master data because there may be many cose centers assigned under the same profit center. There is no one-to-one mapping of cost center to profit center.
I would suggest you do not make COGS as cost element unless the sale order is an MTO sales order or business insists on it.
If business insists on it, then add the cost element to OKB9.

Cost centre without business area

Hi All,
I have document splitting with business area and profit centre mandatory, along with this i have configured business area wise FSV in OBY6.
We have configured 10 business areas and 5 profit centres, but i have created cost centres without business area and i dontwant to create cost centres with business area becoz junk master data in system and no control to users. also i have done configuration in OKB9 for automatic posting expences account with the combination of valuation area-business area- & cost centre, but when we are posting any financial document though MM or SD transactions like PGI or MIGO for service, system is not allowing to post financial document without business area cost centres. Error "Business Area XXXX / Cost centre XXXX is not assigned".
After all analysis i came to know that, if we have cost centre with business area then only we can move with this set of configuration. Is it right?
In No. what need to be done. basically we dont want to create cost centres for all Business Area
Thanks in Advance,
Sahil

Hi,
If you are not ready to maintain BA in CC master you should write Substitution / you should maintain derivation rule for deriving business area.

Project Systems: Profit and Cost Centres

Hi
When maintaining a WBS element through transaction CJ02 or CJ20N for example; it is poossible to link a profit centre, ressponsible cost centre and requesting cost centre to each WBS element.
My question is: When cost gets incurred against a WBS element the profit centre gets updated with the cost as well. However, the cost centres (responsible and requesting) do not get updated. Is there any automatic effect on these cost centres (such as is the case with profit centres)?
I know that the requesting cost centre will be the cost centre allocated to AUC's assigned (if applicable) and that to get cost onto the cost centre a settlement rule must be maintained. What therefore is the use of having responsible and requesting cost centres assigned to a WBS apart from this?

Hi
Cost center and WBS elements are both cost objects hence at a time real posting can happen to only one of them. Since WBS elements are getting debited , it will not simultaneously debit a cost center. However profit center it is not the case , hence the data flow to the profit center happens as an when a posting is done to WBS element and also when WBS is settled to cost center then also there will be a posting to profit center.

MIRO Error-Can not post to mat.account & using overhead cost centre &.

Dear Colleagues,
On MIRO,users have come across this error where they can not post to a particular G/L account using 2 different cost centres(219 & 220).
We have some validations on OB28 but although one particular step menitons this message as I stated above,the prerequisite of that step seem to be referring to G/L IN VAL_Plant No_16 AND Cost Center IN VAL_Plant No_17.
Whereabouts I need to maintain this G/L account/Cost Centre Combination?II had a look at OME9/OKB9 but couldn't get any resolution looking over there...
All Help appreciated.
PAPJ1.

I had to tweak the types of error messages on OB28 temporarily,to allow for these postings to go through and it worked!.

GL account and Cost Centre Info

Hi All
Where does the GL account / Chart of accounts / Cost centre information gets stored in SRM System?
Are there any specific tables for this..
Thanks and Regards

Hi
All the data that you mention is held in ERP. SRM uses RFC connections to validate if the data that a user enters is correct.
The cost centres that a user can select can be maintained in the org structure or the search help functionality (that requires a dialog rfc connection) can be activated.
The default GL account for a product category can be maintained within the SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Account Assignment -> Define G/L Account for Product Category and Account Assignment Category img activity.
Hope this answers a couple of your queries.
