Account Assignment - Derivation of Cost Object

Hi All,
On doing payment through transaction F-58, automatic line item of exchange rate gain n loss (P&L Account) is added automaticallly due to configuration done in FBKP -> Excng Rate Difference. The problem is, is there a possibilty to derive cost object which is used in Invoice of which the payment is being processed.
Regards,
Nayab

Thanks Eli for your reply.
Yes, I found the same i.e. the best practice is to assign CO through OKC9 on particular G/L Accounts. The issue is reports in Joint Venture Accounting "GJRG_5J1B" that shows all cost on particular job (cost center, wbs, network etc.) doesn't potray the right result after settlement of network. For instance
Invoice is booked and cost element is charged on Network
CJI3 show all amount
GJRG_5J1B show all related amount.
When payment is processed and in automatic RXD line item, constant Cost Center of Other Income is provided
CJI3 doesn't show RXD amount
GJRG_5J1B show RXD amount
On settling Network, i.e. Roll up its cost to WBS level following happens
CJI3 is settled, gross amount is 0.
GJRG_5J1B show 0 as well other than RXD amount which still needs to be settled.
The solution we found is to charge automatic line item to particular cost object so it will get settled while rolling up network amount to WBS
The other solution is to settle such cost at period end but to do such activity I'm in search of standard way.
Thank you again for your response.

  • In VFX3,error is for GL requires an assignment to a cost object eventhough

    In VFX3, while releasing billing docu for Accounting  error is for GL40000000 requires an assignment to a cost object
    The below are Checked points :
    1.In OKB9 for this cost element  40000000 cost center assignments are there with Business area wise.
    2.Cost center Valid period is from 1.4.2007 to 31.12.9999
    in the begining  while releasing in VFX3, system throwed  error as that cost center  blocked for revenue postings,
    We deselected that check box(Actual Revenues in KS02)
    now the error is GL 4000000 requires  an assignment to a cost object
    Even though cost center assignments are there but why system is asking cost object  not able to understand.
    Please any one help me to solve this issue.
    Thanks

    Nope, no other ways.
    The cost center in question will receive a statistical posting - revenues aren't costs, and can't be carried in CCA as primary postings.  If they could, they'd be able to be included in rate calculation, allocations, etc, which is nonsensical.
    You'll have to have another receiver in CO that can receieve a real posting.  That's pretty much an internal order, WBS element, or profitability segment.  Profit center doesn't count; all postings to PCA are statisticial (PCA is a special-purpose special-purpose-ledger, if you get my meaning.)
    Two questions:
    1) Do you have costing-based CO-PA active in your system?
    2) Have you verified the business scenario?  Why do you want to record revenues in CCA in the first place?

  • Error message KI249- Enter only one true account assignment for each cost

    Hi,
    When i released a billing to accounting tcode VF02, i encounterd this message: : You made assignments to several objects in CO( cost center, order, project etc). 2 of these have been created as true cost object.
    1.There is no order assigned to sales order and billing.
    2.Ive defined substitution OKC9 using exit UOKB9.
    3.Ive updated table in OKB9.
    Now, when i do goods receipt (MIGO) to the same cost element with sales order and its item, system does allow to post that without error.
    When debugging, noticed that its looping twice in the cost element and i suspected because of this. Not sure why its looping twice and maybe because looping 1 - in OKB9 and no 2 - substitution.
    Then i removed the substitution, but somehow its looping once but without any cost object ( order or cost center).
    Hope any expert can provide help in this.

    Nice to see that you have taken the initiative to update the forum which is missing with many of forum members and in that sense thanks for the same.

  • Account assignment category for cost centre and statistical internal order

    When issuing purchase order, we use account assignment category u2018Fu2019 for (PM) order, and u2018Ku2019 for cost centre.  What account assignment category to use, when issuing purchase order, if we want to charge to both cost centre (as mandatory) and statistical internal order (as optional entry field)?
    Do you create custom account assignment category for that purposes? 
    I reviewed Note 305385 but do not think it's relevant to us.

    Hi Stacy
    you can create a custom acct assgn category (AAC) in OME9... COPY the K to Z and make changes in it
    However, I feel the Std AAC K should serve your purpose if you want to have Cost Ctr as mandatory and Order as Optional

  • Blocking of Account Assignment categery K cost center

    Hello friends,
    I have one issue while creating purchase requisition.
    I want to block use of account assignemnt categery K - cost center while creating purchase requisition for my document type
    is there any setting in custimising or any user exit available.
    Edited by: vrunda on Jul 31, 2009 10:02 AM

    Hi,
    You can block the account assignment category being used for your Purchase requisition type with the combination of ITEMCATEGORY  only
    You cant block ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT CATEGORY alone
    Goto the transaction code OLME AND choose your PR document type and against it select the check box N which means"NO ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT CATEGORY  " Allowed
    Hope this will work.

  • KI178 - Enter a true account assignment relevant to cost accounting @ VA01

    Hi All,
    I am creating a new Sales Order, however it is issuing KI178 message as above and does not allow me to save it. What could be the issue here?
    Thanks,
    Regards,

    Hello
    It seems you have created the cost element with category 01. Please delete the cost element by T. Code KA04 and create with category 11 if sales and 12 if sales return.
    It will not be possible to delete the cost element if there is already a posting in the cost element. In this case you may have to use a new GL account or assign a cost center for the cost element in OKB9.

  • G/L Account assignment - Planned delivery cost

    Hi,
    Is it possible via customizing to determine an other G/L Account for a planned delivery cost condition?
    Currently when I want to post the IR I can see two lines for the PO item. One for the cost of the material and one for the delivery cost. However both are having the same G/L Account.
    This planned delivery cost has an other transaction key assigned in the pricing schema and account determination for this key is setup in OBYC (automatic postings). So I supposed the system will use an other account but that's not the case.
    In case that's not possible. Can I give the condition type an other condition category to obtain this result? The cost of material and the cost of delivery should both go into separeted accounts.
    Thanks in advance for your replies!

    Hi,
    Freight clearing (FR1), provision for freight charges (FR2)-These transactions are used to post delivery costs (incidental procurement costs) in the case of goods receipts against purchase orders and incoming invoices. Which transaction is used for which delivery costs depends on the condition types defined in the purchase order.
    Or you can create Z condition type and for same you can assign different GL in OBYC which system trigger during GR to post the value in to different GL

  • Exchange rate problem between GR&IR for PO with account assignment category

    ear SAP experts.
    We have used expense puchase order through account assignment category.
    the cost object include cost center,sale order,order.because we don’t use Fixed assets module in SAP,when purchase fixed assets,we also use account assignment category but no need to fill assets number(Not use account assignment category A).
    the processing in current system when there is exchange rate difference between GR&IR  as follows.
    purchase order Currency :USD  company code currency:HKD
    example 1-- when something purchased into expense account,
    Good receipt  (1USD=7.75HKD)
    Dr :expense account  100USD    775HKD
      Cr: GR/IR        100USD    775HKD
    Invoice receipt
    Dr : GR/IR         100USD    775HKD
        Expense account            25HKD
    CR: Vendor        100USD    800HKD
    Example 2-- when something purchased into Fixed assets account,
    purchase order :USD  company code currency:HKD
    Good receipt on Oct .01. 2007  (1USD=7.75HKD)
    Dr :Fixed assets account  100USD    775HKD
      Cr: GR/IR           100USD    775HKD
    Invoice receipt on Dec.01.2007  (1USD= 8HKD)
    Dr: GR/IR              100USD     775HKD
       Fixed assets account                25HKD
      Cr: Vendor            100USD     780HKD     
    The fixed assets is depreciated from Nov,2007.
    There is one problem that after the fixed assets is depreciated, the value for the fixed assets is added , the finance clerk have to adjust the added value from fixed assets account to Exchange Difference-Gain/Loss account by manual.
    Our problem is
    How to configure in order to make  the exchage rate difference into Exchange Difference-Gain/Loss account for purchase order with account assignment category,not the original assigned account in purchase order item.
    Many thanks
    Fanny

    Hi Fanny
    Even though the question is bit unclear, I guess you are looking for the T-Code OBYC. Use transaction key KDM for configuring the exchange gain/loss

  • Assign cost object by condition type for accounting

    Hello All,
    Our scenario is that we have a single billing line with a service order assigned as the cost object on the line item.  This line has multiple condition types going to different GL accounts on the RV document.
    Once the service order is on the billing line all of the RV document lines get the same service order for cost object assignment  We want to assign different cost objects (service order, internal order) to the different lines on the RV document based on the GL account.
    Example:
    Billing document line 10
    Material 123456
    Service order 999999
    Condition type           GL                      Desired Cost Object
    ZZ01                      480000                  999999 - service order
    ZZ03                      560000                  11111 -  internal order
    ZZ04                      470000                  999999 - service order
    ZZ05                      440000                   22222 - internal order
    We have the multiple GLs getting assigned, it is just the cost object on the RV document that is a problem.  Is there a way to do this in config...or is a user exit the only option?
    Thanks in advance!
    Edited by: Allison Sains on Jan 20, 2012 7:01 PM

    Thanks for the response.  It looks like we're going to try and rework the account assignment so a user exit is not required (use OKB9 instead).

  • ABT1N   Account **  requires an assignment to a CO object

    Hi Dear,i am using tcode ABT1N to transfer asset within inter-com entity,but i got error "Account ******** requires an assignment to a CO object"
    my understand is cost center already entered in asset,then that GL will auto-derive cost center from asset master as CO object assignment,why still have that message?

    Hi,
    Please have a look on the following tips to solve this issue:
    1. Check the settings in the following customizing                                                                               
    SPRO -> Asset Accounting -> Integration with the General Ledger -> Additional Account Assignment Objects                                                                               
    In there you must find Cost Center / Internal Orders as ACTIVE                                                                               
    2. All asset masters must have defined a cost center / internal order    
    in table ANLZ.  You can check this information by trx. SE16.                                                                               
    3. In "field status group" of account assignment, cost center and  internal order must be optional.                                                                               
    To check this information, you can go to trx. AS02, double click on account determination, then select tab "Create/bank/interest".                                                                               
    4. Check if you have set additional cost center determination by trx. OKB9 that can be affecting the "cost center" derivation.                                                                               
    5. If company code has been defined as "Business area fin.statement";,  then Cost Center won't be derivated from Asset Master. Check txn OBY6.                                                                               
    6. Please verify the settings of:                                                                               
    SPRO -> Asset Accounting -> Integration with the General Ledger -> Additional Account Assignment Objects
    -> Specify Acct Assignment Types for Acct Assignment Objects                
    There for your company code, for all transactions (*) cost center must  be active, so it will be derivated from Asset Master.                                                                               
    I'd also like you to have a look on the following SAP notes:

  • Account 300000 requires an assignment to a CO object  while I am trying to

    Dear Experts,
    Account 300000 requires an assignment to a CO object  while I am trying to do posting from billing doc to acc doc .
    When I am  trying in KA01 to create  cost element  then sym will ask  in default acc asst  cost centre .After when I do trying create cost centre in KS01 sym giving error message u2018  Controlling area XXX does not have a standard hierarchy (please assign one)u2019
    Again if I trying to create  std hierarchy in (OKEON u2013 Change) getting message u2018
    u2018You have not yet created a cost center standard hierarchy for COAr xxxx
    So  wt should I do  for this error to clear.?
    Regards
    Ishikesh

    Hi Ishikesh,
    First of all are you using a make-to-order scenario or scenario where there is linkage to controlling?
    This is an error because the G/L account which you have assigned in the customisation is requiring an assignment to any of the parameter which can relate it to the Controlling for e.g. Cost center or WBS element.
    For this you have to have some guidance of Controlling customisation as this is not the directly an issue of SD module.
    If the G/L is for Revenue then it will be a secondary cost element and not primary. If the G/L is a revenue element , then account needs a profit center. If a cost element , then account needs a cost center.
    Please check first the field status of the account in Transaction: FS00.
    If this account requires CO object as mandatory then check whether a cost element is created or not , this error normally occurs when CO object is mandatory but relevant cost element is not created.
    You have a cost account defined in accounts determination (Transaction: OBYC), and every cost account must have a cost object associated (say, internal order, cost center, etc..).
    You must decide what is the cost object to 'receive' the cost value on the account
    Now, Look at Transaction: OKB9 - Display View "Account assignment" : Overview
    In OKB9 specify weather this cost element give impact to cost center or profitability segment. If it is give impact to cost center then assign cost center against to cost element or assign it to PA.
    OR, Alternatively -
    Go to, Transaction: KA04 and delete the cost elements for your g/l accounts.
    Regards,
    Karthik.

  • Cost assignment-Multiple cost objects being selected by default from the EP

    Hi,
    I have created an expense report from the Portal and entered the cost object - a WBS element and saved the report. Now, when I check in table: PTRV_SCOS, it shows me the cost object assigned are - both - the WBS Element as well as the Cost center. This is incorrect as there should be only one cost object - either the cost center or the WBS element. However, when I book the expenses from the backend, it works fine. Only the WBS or cost center is displayed in the table mentioned above. Anyone has any idea as to why this is happening?
    Many thanks in advance for your efforts.
    Cheers guys.
    Hope to hear from you soon

    Hi All,
    First of all, thanks for your responses..
    Right, about the issue, what I explained here was that I am indeed assigning only one cost object: the WBS element. The issue was that even though I am assigning only the WBS element, it was also assigning the cost to the cost center by default. I did some R&D and found the solution to the issue (I was also asked to look for OSS notes but was not satisfied that this issue needs an OSS note to be applied so tried my solution). The issue was in table: T788M (allocate costs to variable account assignment). Here, I created an entry and called it USERGROUP_2 (just a random name) and assigned the variable cost objects (only the WBS and the Cost center) to be displayed. In the next step, I assigned this usergroup to the country in quesion feature (TRVCO). By doing this, I tell the system that only these cost objects are to be considered when an employee wants to assign the cost object. If the system sees that there is no value from the drop down to choose from, it picks up the default cost object (cost center). This was a simple issue that I had to rattle my brains on... but the solution I mention above worked like a hot knife going through butter...
    If you guys face this issue, please try this else feel free to get in touch with me on my number below.
    Once again, thanks for your responses.

    "Account assignment objects are incorrect. No substitution is poss

    Please help me out with this problem.
    Please tell me is thr anywhere i have to assign the Costcenters.We want that Posting should go with Employees Cost Center only for Expnse accounts.
    Thanx,
    Viru.

    System is asking alternative cost centre for your company code.
    Please create the a new cost centre, then assign to your company code in the table of TKA3G.
    Or else go to path:
    Payroll-> Payroll india or singapore or usa->Posting to financial accounting->Activities in the AC-System->Set up fixed cost postings and substitute cost centers->Set up substitute cost centers .
    For each country text will vary. but fixed substitute cost center name will be appear.
    Ask to your FI guys then they will create a new cost centre.
    For fixed cost centre assign cost centre to your cost element.(V_TKA30)
