Profit center determination in R/3 when releasing line item in CRM

Dear All,
In CRM under Service Contract,whenever a line item is getting released,automatically debit memo request is created in R/3.However,the profit center is not populating in the line item.Even the profit center field in r/3 is in non-editable mode.
We have maintained the profit center substitution rule in R/3 based on sales org using 0KEM T.code and assigned the same to CO Area.
Kindly suggest me in this juncture.

Hello,
I assume you had setup "Single Object Controling" for your scenario and the profit center are in connection with the internal order which is created in case of "Single Object Controling"
See :Single-Object Controlling - Generic Functions in Service - SAP Library
You can set up the profit centre substitution in the ECC transaction SCRM
under the path Customer relationship management -> General settings ->
Settings for Profit Center Accounting, you can define substitution
rules for the profit center. Documentation is also provided.
Furthermore for determination of the relevant profit center, you can also use BAdI CRM_UPLOAD_CO (method CHARACTERISTICS_SERVICE_FILL) to assign the proper profit center to the internal order. See the documentation for these BADI in the documentation for these BADI (Tx. SE18).
I hope these information will help you.
Best Regards
Gerhard

Looking forward for your kind cooperation in this matter
Thanks & Regards,
Naveen Kumar.

Hello Naveen,
I am not very sure about your query, as you might be knowing that the Profit Center is only updated in New GL tables (FAGLFLEXA, FAGLFLEXT) and hence the Vendor relavant tables would not.
The profit center information in the split lines or the line of the 'General Ledger View' are only displayed within transaction FAGLL03 which read the 'new' table for the NewG/L.
About profit center wise reporting, when New GL is active Please review attached consulting SAP note:
- 826357 Profit Center Accounting and new general ledger in
I hope this helps. If not, please provide an example of your requirement.

Profit Center population in the Vendor and Customer Line items

hello
our client is asking for getting profit center in the vendor and customer line items where in the view FBL5n and fbl1n we are not getting the profit center populated - in the new gl i understand that there is a standard report based on the gl account.
but our business is not satisfied with the report and expecting report at profit center level.
Can any one suggest any way of doing this.
regards,
Vijay

Dear Vijay,
Let me provide you my view of solutioning for this. This is an enahcement that needs to be done
1. You can get the profit center from the given vendor and customer line item at the time of posting, using an enahcement you will be able to capture it.
2. Existing the profit center field is not populated in the BSIK,BSAK,BSID and BSAD tables
3. Hence, in the same enhancement once you capture the profit center , you can write the code that profit center is updated in these tables also.
4. This will help you to do the vendor line item wise selection in the FBL1N, FBL5N profit center wise.
Constraints of this solution:
The only constraint remains where in the for a given document if there are multiple profit center, then the system will do the splitting profit center wise for a vendor line item, which will not populate the profit center in those tables as there is only one field available in the bsid etc.. tables.
This basically would be the one the soltuion where in as seeen from the end user ther eis no change in the front end interface , the way they are doing always they can do.
You need to also take care the % of document splitting means cross profit center postings /cross document splitting charactericstics postings and the volume involved in this. so that you can suggest this to your client.

Bharathi.

Hi,
We require the profit center and plant code and division in FI

Hi
Profit center / cost center are generally entered in revenue & expense line items (P&L items). Customer / vendor master and line items are balance sheet items which will not show profit / cost centers.

Hi,
SAP give note 539421 - Dummy profit center with cost center
account assignment. Looks applicable for your case.
Solution:
With the attached modification, you can restore the function from Release
3.1: The directly assigned profit center remains and is not overwritten
with the dummy profit center of the cost center.
The problem is not caused by a program error in this case. The profit
center is always derived from the existing CO account assignment even if
this is the dummy profit center (see also Note 62417).
This note applicable from release 40 until 605
I hope this can help you. FYI, in my case, i do not create dummy profit centre, then profit centre working as sap priority.
Regards,
Dewi

Error in profit center determination for settled vendor down payments

Hello All,
When we try to settle vendor down payments an error is detected for the profit center determination .
The settled down payment is found on the dummy profit center instead of the profit center of the original invoice. This means that the reporting of oustanding payables per profit center is wrong
When you only see the invoice and not the settled down payment which should reduce you outstanding debt (down payment already paid).
Can any one help in this matter
Regards
Arun

Hi,
Check the document splitting configuration. Advances to vendors recon.. account should be assigned as category 'Vendor 'special gl transaction''.
Check the document type 'KA' transaction as '0300'... or unspecified posting.

Dummy profit center determined when performing MIGO (after MB21)

Dear experts,
I have the following problem in SAP release 4.7:
Step 1) Perform MB21 (ok, no problem)
Step 2) Perform goods issue (MIGO): Sometimes it determines profit center from the material correctly while sometimes it determines dummy profit center!
The correct one is the profit center of the material master but no dummy. The account has a check in Profit. Segment in OKB9 setting.I have checked that dummy profit center is determined because the characteristic "plant" is not copied to COPA for derivation. Is it a system bug? Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Hi,
Good morning and greetings,
Maintain a substitution rule in the system through GGB1 / OBBH to ensure that the right profit centre is determined during the transaction.
By maintaining the substitution the system will automatically determine.
Please reward points if found useful
Thanking you
With kindest regards

Profit center determination

Hi,
Can anyone help me understand how the profit centers are determined for the payables and receivables, customer vendor invoices line item postings in theory it says it is determined form the offset line item? can some one provide me with an example
One kind is from 3KEH table and if there is no profit defined there from where does the system picks up the profitcenter.
Thank you

All profit center postings are statistical.
We don't post anything to Profit Center directly. Profirt center is derived from CO object.
When we define Cost Center we assign Profit center to the Cost center. If a transaction is posted to that cost center Profit center assigned to that cost center gets posted.
Likewise all cost objects are assigned with Profit Center. If by anychance any cost Object is not assigned with profit Center the transaction is posted to Dummy Profit Center by system automatically. This is necessary for reconciliation between FI and CO. We have to settle dummy profit center transactions periodically to the correct Profit center.
If you run Profit center assignment monitor, you will find which cost object is not assigned with profit center.
Hope you are clear about Profit Center assignment.

Profir center determination in non leading ledger in tcode ABAA

Hello experts,
We are working on ECC6.0 and parallel ledger is already activiated. To post the unplanned depreciation only in the non leading ledger, I have created new transaction type and attched it to non leading dpereciation area. After entring through transaction code ABAA, when I run ASKB to post the entry in the financial books, I get the profit cetner determination error. Entry is as under:
Depreciation A/c ..........Dr
To Accumualted Depreciation Account.
Now for depreication account being expense account and having cost element system is asking for the profit center (cost center).
My question is, how can I guide the system to determine the profit center from cost center mentioned in asset master data?
Please advise.
Shailesh

Dear sir,
Please check your seetings in T.code ACSET. Whether KOSTL as a account assignment object defined or not. If not then please make the entry, by doing so system will check the cost center in asset master and will pick the profit center maintained accordingly.
As well check account assignment type as a 02 Depreciation Run
I hope this may help and solve the issue.

Pankaj A Bhalerao.

Profit Center determination for Stock G/L accounts

Hello,
The scenario is as follows:
A single G/L account is defined in our system for Finished Goods. FI documents resulting from material movements are posted to this account in PCA, i.e. table GLPCA shows material document numbers in the reference document field along with the corresponding movement types for this account.
There are a large number of materials with Profit Center 10000 (Industry General) defined in the material master record. All postings to the G/L in question are currently being made against the Profit Center defined in material master. There are also two other Profit Centers defined in the system; 10001 (Industry Motors) and 10002 (Industry Others). The business requirement is that all materials are common to both segments, but the Profit Center should be determined from the sale, i.e. if a material is sold to an Industry Motors customer the Profit Center should be 10001, otherwise it should be 10002.
For the revenue G/L account which is hit at the time of posting of the invoice, a substitution has been configured that determines the appropriate Profit Center from the division specified in the invoice; there are two divisions for Motors and Others respectively. For the stock G/L however, all postings are made to Profit Center 10000 as defined in the material master record.
Since the stock G/L will show postings from all goods movements, including GR, initial entry, GI for delivery, etc., and all materials are common, it is clearly not possible to completely segregate all postings to 10001 and 10002. For example, GR will always be posted to 10000 (General) as it is not known whether this should be in 10001 or 10002 till the time of sale. However, for sales movement type (Goods Issue delivery) at least, postings shoud be made to the appropriate specific Profit Center. For the remaining postings, the business applies a calculated ratio to the acumulated balance.
For the stock G/L, is it possible to derive Profit Center for outward goods movements based on invoice? For example, 1000 USD worth of stock is posted to the G/L in PCA with movement type 101 and Profit Center 10000. 200 USD worth of stock is sold under Motors and 400 USD worth is sold under others. Entries in GLPCA should be:
G/L            Balance Profit Center     Movement Type
31000000   1000       10000              101
31000000   200         10001              601
31000000   400         10002              601
So from this it is easily possible to determine that 200 USD worth of stock has been sold under Motors, 400 USD worth under Others, and 400 USD worth of stock remains unsold.
A solution for this is required. If anyone can think of any other way to accomplish this as well, please share your suggestions. Thanks!
Regards,
Khan

to arrive the profit center at a time of Goods Movment, select the cost center for Industry Motor before to that do the settings in OKB9 for the Cost element a default Profit Center for Cost center.
Hope this helps u in resolve the issue.

Profit center determination at the time of posting.

hi experts,
My business requirement is such that at the time of sale the client wants to book profit based on their nature to different profit center. such that Material X can be booked to Profit center A,B,C or D at the time of sale. I have made the necessary configuration and this is happening. Problem is at the time of upload initial stock by 561 and moving it to sales order stock ( by 413 Mov type) as it is a MTO senario. At the time of goods movement it is not taking profit center as mentioned in SO. I have gone through document which ask to give Profit center in MM. I have done this but its not satisfying by business requirement.
Kindly help as i am at the realization phase...looking forward to your expert comments..
Edited by: Shikha Gupta on Mar 3, 2010 7:16 AM

Hello,
Make sure that you have 3KEH settings in place.
For account determination (more specific) - you can add upto 3 fields use 3KEI settings.
In addition, if necessary use default profit centers in OKB9.
Still if you cannot achieve, then fill the entries in OKC9. However, the prerequisite is that you must have created the substituion in GGB1.
Thanks,
Ravi

Profit-center determination of bank subaccounts and bank accounts ; with new GL.

The question here-under has been asked a number of times on forums, though never answered really to my knowledge. Let me try to get it formulated once more :
- When a customer invoice is posted, the receivable is properly split per profit-center thanks to the active splitting solution.
- When the customer invoice is paid through a bank transfer, the following happens generally :
The bank statement posts a first area 'debit' bank and 'credit' bank sub-account on a default profit-center (this posting needs to happen first because SAP aims to have the 'bank' posted as quickly as possible 'in the morning' leaving the manual clearing activities 'in the afternoon').
The bank statement posts a second area 'debit' bank sub-account and 'credit' + 'clearing' receivable. There, the combination of passive splitting and inheritence makes sure that the profit center of the invoice receivable line items is also used for this entire posting.
- Manually or through automatic clearing, the bank sub-account gets cleared. Since the 2 sides have different profit-centers, the systems posts adjustment lines to the zero balance clearing account.
My question : for companies that want to achieve an entire balance sheet per profit-center, it is a problem that the bank account debit and bank sub-account credit are still with a default profit-center. I understand that the splitting solution in new GL does not offer a way to solve that. One needs to adjust the profit-center on the bank account and bank-subacccount with an allocation cycle in EC-PCA. Is my understanding correct or is there a better solution available in New GL ?
Thanks for your replies.
José Beghein

Hello Ronghua,
Many thanks for your reply. This note is extremely interesting and gives a lot of technical information on the differences between classic PCA and new GL PCA.
I nevertheless did not find clearly what is considered the best practice towards splitting bank account positions.
Kind regards.
