Dear Sunil,
Check out this,
1.Create a Cost center using T code - KS01.
2.Create an activity type using T code - KL01.
3.Assign the Rates for an activity type & cost center combination using T code KP26.
4.In the input screen of T code KP26 ,enter version as 0, from period 1 and to period as 12 and the Fiscal
Year as 2008,enter the cost center, activity type click on overview screen (F5)---> enter the per hour Rate
under Fixed price and set value as 2 for distribution key and plan price indicator as 3.
5.After performing this ,while creating the work center ,this combination of activity type & cost center
should be assigned.Then while creating routing/task list this work center can assigned for performing
operations.
Check with this & revert back if you need any further help.

Activity Type ENGINE not set up for cost center

Hi all,
Currently, we have set up a work center in our system, which has the following intergration:
- Controlling Area --> TECH
- Cost Center --> TECH001
- Activity Type --> ENGINE
- Plant --> PN01
- Work Center --> PL01
Based on the above, the work center PL01 has the relationship of where Activity Type ENGINE and Cost Center TECH001 are linked together, where Cost Center is tied to Controlling Area TECH.
However, when a user tried to create General Task List (Trxn IA05), under Work Center PL01 and Plant PN01, and inserted Activity Type ENGINE in Operation item. It gives the following error:
Activity Type ENGINE not set up for cost center
I have also checked KP26 that everything is setup correctly.
Please can someone shed some light on the above?
Many thanks and regards,
Patrick
PS: Full point guaranteed for helpful answer.

Hi all,
I have solved the issue by changing the Start Date of the Work Center. Now everything works well.
cheers,

Error Activity type 502000 not set up for cost center 1000 cc111

hi all
While creating a work center (CR01) I need to enter a cost center and activity type for machine hours. However, while entering the activity type the following message appears:
Message no. CR 061
You are attempting to assign activity type XXXX to the work center. However, this activity type has not yet been set up in controlling area 1000 for cost center xxxxx.
while creating the activity type in KL01 i have already given * in cc category so it should go for all cc
What could cause this problem?
Thank you in advance,
Kind regards

Hi,
Check whether the activity type is maintained at the correct controlling area via KL03. If not, then create the activity type (KL01) in the corresponding controlling area.

Actual activity price does not exist for cost center / activity type

Hi,
We are trying to upload the time sheet related data(number of hours an employee workred on a project) ect from Non SAP to SAP.
We have used a customized program and have loaded the data from se38.
All this HR data will be saved in CAT2
Later we transfer the time related data into SAP FI/CO using CAT7.
+When tested with a couple of employees time sheets, they got uploaded in SE38 proerly and when transfered it through CAT7 it was properly taking the hour*rate is cost and was reflecting in the respective cost element.
For a few time sheets in SE38 we were getting an error saying that the cost center(100501)/ activity type(EAT001) does not exist for 2010.
Hence we have taken, FY 2010, the cost centes and activity types in KP26 and have given the planned Activity as 1. No planned cost in KP06.
We have run the price calculation forr the FY 2010.
Then we were able to uplaod the time sheets, but when we tried to transfer the data through CAT7, it throws an error saying no activity price exist for cost center 100501/ activity type EAT001. If I ignore the warning an proceed, no amount is being calculated.
When uploaded employee time sheets before, all the cost were getting claculated and were entering into the respective cost elements, but now no amounts are being calculated and it is taking Zero.
When checked the previous years data i.e, 2009 all amounts are fine, in KSII I can see the activity quantity filled with some numbers in 2009, where from are they comming? I have checked KBk6 nothing was mentioned.
PLease assit
Regards,
shilpa

Hi
I never used CAT* though, but the error means that you need to maintain a activity price in KBK6 (Actual price)

Fld selectn for mvmt type 561 / acct 900040 differs for Cost center (010)

hi all
while uploading raw material i find " Fld selectn for mvmt type 561 / acct 900040 differs for Cost center (010)" this error. please help me to solve this error.
thanks

Hi,
I do not have system now, but the above error happens due to wrong Field Selection of G/L & Movement type and not matching.
Option-1: Check Field status group in the create/bank/interest TAB for G/L in FS00 & check its assignments in OBC4 & Field Selection for status of cost center like optional/required/suppress
Use OMJJ t.code - 561 mvt - field selection and check additional account assignment (here cost center is optional/required/suppress.)
Option-2: Can also run the programme RM07CUFA through SE38 to update.

IW41: automatic update of activity type when changing the work center?

Hello colleagues,
when doing a time confirmation with IW41, we have following problem:
In the PM order the operations are assigned to a neutral executing work center, as it not known which individual technician is completing the operation later on.
Now when the individual technician is entering the time confirmation with IW41, system is proposing the work center indicated in the operation from the PM order, then technician is overwriting the work center proposal with his own individual work center ID (and pressing Enter), but the activity type is not getting updated automatically. So the technician must jump to field "activity type" and choose the correct activity type.
Is there any solution (hopefully with user exits!) to have the field "activity type" automatically updated with the one indicated in the work center, which was entered manually?
Thanks for your ideas!
Regards,
Patrick

Hi Maheswaran,
yes, as usual all PM work centers have only 1 activity type assigned in the costing tab.
We also checked the settings of the activity type (KL03), but we just found one difference: the price indicator was set on 3 "Determined manually" - we've changed to 1 "Plan price, automatically based on activity" (..same setting as for the act. type of the work center with working update of act.type).
We tested already all possible constellations and scenarios, but we have not found any good reason for the behaviour.
Thanks for your efforts so far!

G/L Account determination for cost center

Hi,
When we issue the material with movement type 201 or when we do 202, we enter the cost center in the MB1A, then ref. to this cost center how to determine which G/L account is updated, and if we want to know how much is total goods issue is done for a particular cost center which g/l account to be check.
regards,
zafar

system check the setting in Define Account Grouping for Movement Types
for movement type
201 what is account modifier its VBR
then it check material number and takes valuation class
then it goes to OBYC and check the gl account under GBB
and looks for Gl account for VBR and valuation clases
and pick up the Gl accoun
hope its clear now
and in case of PO
the logic for gl account determination for account assigned po is as below
for cost center u give K
for this K it goes in Maintain Account Assignment Categories and check what is Acct modification it is generally VBR
then it check if u have given material number and takes valuation class and if material ordered is with out material code then valuation class is blank
then it goes to OBYC and check the gl account under GBB
and looks for Gl account for VBR and valuation clases in case on manteria number
or VBr and Blank entry for valuation class
and pick up the Gl account
Hope now its clear

Multiple Activity Types with one Production Cost Centers

Dear Experts,
I have One Cost Center 2 Activity typesu2026I can plan in kp06 in single shot thatu2026
1Ctr-1ActvtyRs.100 and 1Ctr-2Actvty----Rs.200u2026.(Same Cost Elements)
Here my confusion is while doing actual posting we can post cost element to Cost Center i.e.Rs.300 to 1Ctr.
Here how I can map that 100 belongs to 1Activity and Rs.200 belongs to 2Activity because there is only cost center.
I know that solution is simple we can maintain separate cost center for both activity types i.e 1 to 1 mapping of cost center to Activityu2026So Actual posting weu2019ll be fineu2026.
Then what is use of Kp26 to maintain 1 cost center to multiple activity types?
Kindlyu2026..Clear my problemu2026
Regards,
Balaji Bhonsle.

Hi Balaji
You have pointed out a valid concern.. There is a solution to it as well, however, very cumbersome and less practical
In OKKP - You allow some control indicators i.e. CCA, IO, PCA, COPA, etc.. Here, you need to allow Activity Type as Addiitional Account Assignment Object.... (This is below Cost Center Accounting)
While booking expenses from FI, you can specify the Act TYpe along with the cost center... Provided you have that much patience and it is identifiable....
Also, you can assign act type in Asset MAster so that while posting depreciation in AFAB, the same gets assigned to Act Type

How to run GR55 reports in background for cost center hierarchies

1. I have been asked by our users to create batch jobs to run in the background for some GR55 reports, that can then be sent directly to cost center managers via email.
I have figured out the process to do this as long as the cost center manager only needs to see a single cost center at a time. However, if they are in charge of multiple cost centers, we also want to send them a summarized report using the hierarchy we have set up. I can't seem to make this work, as the job only seem to recognize the last cost center in the group and the report is for that cost center.
Example. cost centers 100, 200 and 300 belong to hierarchy abc. If I run the job just for cost center 100 it is fine. But if I have a variant to run hierarchy abc, or even if I use the range 100 to 300, all I get is a report for cost center 300.
We cannot use BW because we only have revenue in BW. I am being asked to make this work from standard R/3 within the GR55 realm of reporting.
2. In addition, the report selection criteria includes two separate plan/forecast versions. They need to update these each month prior to running the reports and sending them out. I looked at the variables associated with the versions and tried to set them up with default values that I hoped would update automatically so that they don't have to manually change 50 or so variants each month. But I don't see any dynamic variables that I can use to have the system make that change without going into each variant individually.
3. There is another piece to this equation as well. There is another report they want sent out in batch, but it is several pages wide in SAP and several pages long. So when you run it in batch and either spool it or get it sent as an email, it is very ugly in the formatting due to all the page splits horizontally and vertically. If anyone knows how to get the report to stay together like it would if you had excel integration turned on, it would be very helpful. I have tried running it with that integration turned on, but the jobs are set up with user batch_mgr and not my id, so it isn't working well. The batch_mgr id is just a system id, not a dialog id. We also don't want the jobs set up with a regular user id because if people leave, then the jobs all need to be changed.

Kim,
I may have options for issues 1 and 2. In case of 3, what I can tell you is I understand the concern, but this is what typically happens in some standard CO reports that are not ALV compatible, I don't think there is not much there to do unless you add some custom code for the output.
In regards to point 1, yes, I have noticed that this happens in some standard and custom reporting, not sure what is going on. I came up with a work around that made the trick for my client in a similar scenario; which is editing the cost center groups. For instance, instead of having the group set as a range from 100 to 300, the groups are have listed the cost centers, 100, 200 and 300. Obviously, the disadvantage of this option is that it would require a bit of more cost center group maintenance.
In regards to point 2, I understand from your note that your users already have set up selection variants for the report. One option for you is to get the help from a developer to create a custom period variable and tiny program that runs in batch every month that would update that variable accordingly. Once that's done, you may have to update at least once, the selection variant attributes to change the period to a selection variable, so everytime from that point of time forward that the variable gets updated, it will be ready with the right value for every selection variant that uses it.
Hope this helps.

KO88 - Error when settling for Cost Center AND Auc for the same Internal Or

Hi Experts,
We need to configure Investment Internal Orders that could settle to both Cost Center and Auc, but each assignments with different Source Cost Elements
We did the following:
1. Created Auc Class
2. Created Investment Profile "IMOBIL" and assigned to Auc Class, flagging Auc
3. Created Allocation Structure "CV" with two assignments:
01, Source = Cost elements 7000000000 to 7999999999, receiver AUC "by cost element"
02 Source = Cost elements 4000000000 to 4999999999, receiver CTR "by cost element"
4. Created Model Order, filling the Investment Profile IMOBIL created in step 2.
5 Created Settlement Profile ZCV0001, assigning Allocation Strucutre CV, allowing CTR and AUC for receivers, default receiver is "FXA", doc type "AA".
6 Created ORder Type CV01, assigning Settlement Profile ZCV0001.
When I post only for Asset Expenses (Source Cost element 7, Assigment 01), the settlement through KO88 correctly settles to AUC, and also creates the settlement rule for cost center (i'm using the strategy to create from Responsible Cost Center).
But when I post for Asset Expenses (cost elements 7, receiver AUC) AND General Expenses (Source Cost element 4, receiver CTR), KO88 generates an error KD506, saying that for Assigment 02 - AUC I didnt define a settlement cost element.
1. Assignment 02 is not AUC, is CTR;
2. I flagged "by cost element", so I don't need a settlement cost element. And also, I was able to post to AUC when the source posting was only for cost element 7.
Did you face any problem like this?
I cannot find out what is the missing configuration, or if it is a program error...
Kind Regards
Mayumi Blak

Hi Ajay
I already created Source Structure and assigned to my Setllement profile (so I assigned Allocation Structure AND Source Structure).
I don't understand when you say that I need to assign the Source Sutrcture in each rule....because the Source structure is in the Settlement Parameters valid for both rules...
When I post to Asset Expenses only for the internal Order, the 2 rules (CTR and AUC) are created when I run KO88 (but only AUC rule is settled). This is OK.
The problem is when I post for both General Expenses AND Asset Expenses, the system is not recognizing that I have 2 source structures, neither is findind that for CTR AND AUC the Settlement cost elements are the original cost elements.
I'm thinking about changing message KD506 to warning, do you know if this can help?
Kind Regards
Mayumi Blak

Purchase Order For Cost Center

Hi,
1. Please explain as I am trying to create a PO and i gave Account type: K(Cost center). I got the following error
"Create Account 140000 as a cost element in controlling area 4000 "
How can i solve this problem. I actually created a cost center : 4000. How to assign a cost element to controlling area.
2.Is it Necessary to maintain the G/L A/c while procuring for Cost center??
Or Cost Center is Sufficient ??

HI Kapil,
For any accounting entry you need to define a General Ledger Account where the details (Amount) of the transaction will be stored.
Just by maintaining cost centre will not help in completing any transaction involving accounts. So you need to maintain G/L account in the controlling area of your company code.
You can use T Code FS00 to create new G/L account in the chart of accounts.
In the edit cost element Tab you can give the cost center that you want.
I hope this helps.
thanks

Report Writer Missing Data for Cost Center+Investment Internal Order

Hi Gurus,
I have met a problem on Report writer. T-code KSBB -> Report for Cost Center Group by Cost Elements in diff months.
The report can be drilled down to call KSB1 to give line items on the cost element by cost center/group.
The problem is the drill-down report missed the line items for investment orders. ( Compared with manually use KSB1)
The overhead internal order line items are fine.
For example, document 001-Apr:
Dr. Cost Element 1009                 $900 -- BA 90 Cost Center 90000 Investment order 9001
     Cr. Other cost elements.                  $900
Document 002-Apr
Dr. Cost Element 1009                 $800 -- BA90 Cost Center 90000 Overhead order 7001
     Cr. Other cost elements                      $800
In KSBB report, the cost center group for 90000 in cost element 1009 in Apr only has $800.
And the drilled down report which called KSB1 has the line item for docuemnt 002.
However, when I run KSB1 directly, the total amount for cost element 1009 in cost center 90000 is $1700.
Here is what I checked:
1. I have my ABAPer checked the KSBB program and KSB1 program to debug them in DEV ( DEV and PRD has the same problem). The different to get the data is that in KSB1, it has selected a value type 11 ( Googled: field name is WRTTP, Down payments as expenses. In program: WRTTP means Statistically Actual ) and 04 ( Googled: Actual True Posting. In program: 04 in WRTTP means Actual posting).
But in KSBB, it only select 04 when I clicked the drill down report to call KSB1.
2. I am thinking that the cause was on different types of internal order:
Overhead internal orders are statistical orders. Investment orders are actual orders.
Could you help to throw some light on the problem?
Thank you very much.
Emma

Hi,
Cost Centre vise Report you can take from KSB1
Internal Order Vise Report you can take fro KOB1
