Profit Center Planning and CO-PA

Dear All,
We are using Both Profit Center Planning and CO-PA ,it is possible to lead over the planned data, turnover and mat. costs, from CO-PA to the profit center accounting. Therefore it is necessary to maintain a transfer scheme in the customization of COPCA and to assign value fields of CO-PA to the relevant accounts of COPCA.
So can anyone guide me how to do this..
Thanks.

Hi
Yes you can transfer the planning data from COPA to ECPCA. You can do the configuration at
SPRO->Controlling->Profitability Analysys->Planning->Integrated Planning->Set up transfer of planning data to ECPCA/FIGL
Then you can use TCode KE1V to transfer the planning data.

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

Layout for profit center planning

Hi
Which layout will be used for profit center planning upload.any help on this.
Thanks
Lily

Hi
I tried the same layout,after getting file upload error message only,i posted in the forum,have u tried with that layout 8A-111,Any way last time you mentioned that
u can use import file directory to upload multiple cost center planning by putting all in one folder,i tried but it is not able to,when i tried using that option still it is able to post one excel sheet only,do i need to assign path in different way or am i missing something,i already assigned points without testing and so can you tell me how to proceed from that import file directory,since it accepts only .TXT files.
C:\Documents and Settings\lilysg\Desktop\CCA (CCA is folder name)after this i need how to proceed.
See below your message
Hi,
Since you have 500 cost center and one excel file contains one cost center and multiple cost element, in that case you will having 500 excel files. To upload all the file at at time, pull all the excel files in single folder. Use T.Code: KP06 and select Excel Planning Upload under extras under the menu bar. Instead of selecting import single file, select import file directory. mention the path of the folder instead of giving path of the file and then execute.
Hope this helps.
pls assign points to say thanks.

Wrong distribution key in profit center planning 7KE1

I have entered the profit center budget in Transaction 7KE1 for profit centet and account using appropriate profile and layout.
The distribution key appearing is "2" however the cost distribution is as per distribution key "1" (equal distribution).   Even we tried to change the distribution key from 2 to 1, sap is not saving this changes and shows "2".
Following is our profile configuration"
Planning Area            currency distribution key    Qty distribution key             Doc type
Costs/Revenue                            01                                   01                               PO
Statistical Key Figures                 02                                   02                               PO

Distribution key filed is there in planning layout. There is no other place default distribution key. Overwrite field is selected in layout.
Please send reply why this is happening.
Thanks,

Hello,
The following example is given for cost center planning. However, you can go to Profit Center ==> Planning. Remaining are same except 7KE1. If you configure in this way, you can upload the plan data through excel for profit center.
This is controlled by planning are in your planning profile. You need to use "Cost ctrs: Cost element/activity inputs" planning area for this purpose.
Hope you are conversant with Integrated excel upload.
To do integrated excel upload of cost center plan data.
IMG ==> Controlling ==> Cost Center Accounting ==> Planning ==> Manual Planning User Defined Layouts - Create your own layout or copy from standard layout and change it.
IMG ==> Controlling ==> Cost Center Accounting ==> Planning ==> Define User Defined Planner Profiles
Copy the SAPALL to ZSAPALL. You cannot change SAPALL as it is standard.
In ZSAPALL planner profile, select proper planning area and enter your layout.
Tick Integrate Excel.
Once the popup for KP06 comes, you need enter the data and save it. It would generate the file name.
With the same file name you need upload the plan data by using KP06.
In KP06
Extras ==> Excel Planning ==> Upload
Select the file as prepared in accordance with format at the time of generating the file name.
Hope this solves your problem.
Please let me know if you need futher help.

Ravi

Profit Center Plans not updated in the reports

Dear All
We have an issue with the COPA Plan allocations. We have several versions that we use for planning.
We have run the plan allocatins in 0 version and the figures have flowed from Cost cneter to profiot center to copa.
for other versions, the plans have gone into COPA, however does not appear in the profit center reports, the cost center balance also has become zero.
Do you have any idea what the root cause could be?
(Profit center line itesm are activated for these versions.,)
Thanks

Hi

Profit Center Planning

Hi to All,
My name is Samad Farooq, Currently we are using SAP Version 4.6C.
My question is regarding the planning , can we plan both the quantity and amount
using the manual planning or any other way. And if we can plan both he quantity and the amount, then using which report we can see the quantity, that is Standard Report.
Thanking you all in advance.
Regards,
Samad Farooq

It is possible to transfer data which was planned in other Controlling components to Profit Center Accounting. The posting is then made to the profit centers to which the transferred CO objects are assigned.
The transferred data can be supplemented by data planned directly in Profit Center Accounting. It is possible to plan costs/revenues, statistical key figures, balances and other balance sheet items for individual profit centers or profit center groups.
Microsoft Excel planning is fully integrated in the SAP system. This means that the SAP system can transfer data planned in Microsoft Excel. This also means that you can use data originally created in the SAP system when planning in Microsoft Excel.
Activities in Controlling
Plan data transfer
Direct planning
Notes on Tailoring
The data which is transferred and created here can be passed on during plan closing.
Integration
Statistical key figures are defined for the whole of Controlling.
Where necessary, it is possible to define further statistical key figures in Profit Center Accounting, to meet the particular requirements of this component.
You can create reports in report painter/writer by using actual/plan/variance/commitments and statistical key figures

Profit Center Planning Error

Dear All,
We have activated New GL Doc Splitting.
When I try to enter the plan values against the Profit Center,the system gives the following message :
Plan period 002 2011 not allowed
Message no. GLPL722
System Response
The selected plan period is not allowed.
Procedure
Set the desired plan period in Customizing under "Define Plan Periods" (transaction GCP5).
Then I went to GCP5 and maintained the plan periods as below:
0001 1 2011 12 9999 13 2011 16 9999
But still the system gives the same message and not allowing to enter the plan values.
Can anybody help me that anything is missed out from configuration point of view.

Su.

Dear Ajay M,
Thanks a lot for suggesting the correct answer and solved the issue and now Iam able to plan the revenues agaist the PC.
But at the same time when I execute the Plan Distribution Cycle for allocation of revenue the sytem given the following message,even though I have creted the correct cycle and planned the revenues against the Revenue Element / PC.
Cycle 0LPLANDISN, start date 20110101, does not include any senders.
Message no. GA749
Diagnosis
No senders were found for cycle 0LPLANDISN, starting date 20110101.
System Response
It is no longer possible to create receivers and assign senders for the segment.
Procedure
Check the definition of the cycle in the maintenance transaction for Plan Distribution: General Ledger. No valid sender cost centers could be found to match your selection.
If you use the sender rules "Posted amounts" or "Posted quantities", check whether records exist in the database for the criteria you entered (cost element, version...)
During indirect activity allocation with the sender rule "posted quantities", you should also note that only the difference between the planned/posted activity allocation and the scheduled activity quantity is allocated. If you entered activity types as sender, you should at this point also check the activity type category. For those quantities posted with an activity type of category 1 (manual entry, manual allocation) no indirect activity allocation is possible.
1. If this is an allocation in the FI/FI-SL area, the problem could also be due to the inheritance logic for FI-SL totals tables, whose "Inheritance of sender based on the receiver" indicator is activated in the "Partner object update" view (T811U-INHERSRC). These are tables that were installed before Release 4.6A.
Use transaction GCA8 to check this, and see the section on:
Inheritance Logic for Allocations
then correct the affected cycle, if required.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

Profit center planning - Revenue planning

Hi,
Out client is service provider and all the scale of rates are mapped to pricing proceedure in SD. Now the requirement is for revenue planning. Revenue planning can be done through profit center accounting. But he do not want to enter the values i.e. revenues directly using the planning layouts. Expectation is that he will enter the quantities that he is expected to sale/provide in the next year and the system should generate the revenues based on the SOR (scale of rates )mapped in Pricing proceedure of SD. How can we achieve this?
Your immediate help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Koteswara Rao

Valuating planned quantities can be done in CO-PA and than transferd to PCA
I think in PCA this is not possible
In PCA you only plan on the account and ProfitCenter (and statistical key figure) and the system doesn't know where to get the prices
In CO-PA you plan on different characteristics (material, service, customer...) and this can be customized in order to derive prices for planned quantites
cheers

Profit Center Planning in New GL

Dear Experts,
We had implemented New GL. We are maintaining New GL Profit Centers (Not Classic Profit Centers).
Can anyone please suggest me:
1. Where to maintain plan values for Profit Centers.
2.How to view Actual and Plan values of profit centers Report.
Pl suggest me reg this....
Regards,
Balaji Bhonsle...

Hi Balaji
The Planning you would do in GP12N T code...
You can browse through the SAP Easy Access Menu to find out the various standard reports..
The IMG settings that you would do need to do is (IMG > FI(New) > GL Accounting > PLanning)
1. Install the summary table - T Code GLPLINST (Table FAGLFLEXT)
2. Define Plan Versions
3. Assign Plan Versions to Fiscal year
4. CReate a new planning layout based on table FAGLFLEXT
5. Define your Planner Profile and assign layout in it

Cost center plan values and Profit center plan values are not matching

Hi,
When user drill down the costcenter plan costs by partner in production system getting difference between P center values for a perticular functional area.
But this number should match with Cost center and P center functional are values but there under functional are showing lower amunts.
Pls let me know where exactly i have to check because i am fresher for controlling.
Please help me out.

Hi Anil,
If I understand your requirement then you want to plan both in USD and INR at the same time.
Say you maintain rate as 1 USD = 50 INR
Do you want to plan for 100 USD and 480 INR against one combination (Cost Center / Cost Element) and 100 USD and 520 INR against another combination of Cost Center / Cost Element?
SAP allows you to plan for a Cost Center / Cost Element combination only once. And that you can plan in any currency. Either in CO Area Currency or Object Currency (in this example Cost Center Currency) or in Transaction Currency (any other currency that you may choose). And the other currencies gets derived from the Exchange Rate maintained in the system using OB08 tcode. The exchange rate will be derived using the Planning Version "Exchange Rate Type" and "Value Date" (See Fiscal Year settings for Planning Version).
So, if you plan in INR it gets translated to USD and vice versa. For planning in different currencies (only one is allowed) you need to change the planning layout to include the Amount Currency field.
So for a single version say V1 you can plan in INR which gets translated to USD using OB08 exchange tare. Again you can plan in version V2 in USD which will get translated in INR using the same OB08 settings but you need to use a different Exchange Rate Type for V1 & V2.
I am not sure what the business requirements are. If the requirements are only to display different currencies in a report then that can be achieved by creating a Report Painter report.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
