Conversion error in company code currency for general costs activity

PS Experts,
Please guide me in the following , The below message appeared when i created a customer project in CJ20N in our new DEV server

Create customer project with 3 WBSE, each one has 3 NTW and 3 activities, i maintained the cost with currency same as project curr and company code currency in the first two act.
in the third activity (General act) in cost tab i put a currency is different than project currency& company code currency and tried to save the project, the message appears.
note: Company code curr same as projet curr & controlling area curr

Conversion error in company code currency for general costs activity 0010
Message no. CK443
Diagnosis
For cost activity 0010, a conversion error occurred in the currency of the company code to which the material is assigned.
Procedure
Check the global settings in Customizing to be sure the exchange rate for conversion into the company code currency is correct
Thanks

Hi Yassin,
I believe you have maintained exchange rates for rate type M as per your config in OPSB.
Now do one thing, maintain the conversion rate for P for those currencies in OB08 and then save your project.
This will solve your problem.

External Activities (Service and non service), Primary Cost Activity

Hello All,

2. Can someone give me an example business scenario where we use Primary cost activity? I understand that Planned cost will be updated as soon as i add value to thr Primary cost element defined, but how will actuals flow for this activity??
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,
Jatinder Bansal

Need your help to understand the different in External Activity marked as servise and not marked as Service?? In what business scenario we use each of these??
External Activity is created for service which is unplanned.
Whereas Service activity is created for Planned Service.These services are plannned already and used repetatively.while creating activtiy services are adopted from the service master same like material master.
You can get know the difference when you create both the activities itself.
Can someone give me an example business scenario where we use Primary cost activity? I understand that Planned cost will be updated as soon as i add value to thr Primary cost element defined, but how will actuals flow for this activity??
General Costs activity are used mostly for Administrative purposes. Example would be travel costs incurred for site visit for Project.
Once you confirm the activities Actual costs are posted.
Thanks,

Costs posted through FB01 to General Cost Element in TECO Status

A general cost element whose system status was changed to TECO on 10/16/2009 has had costs posted from our Travel System in PR1 and also tested posting from FB01 to the same general cost element in a test client sucessfully. Costs were posted on 12/5/2009 (PR1) and 12/10/2009 (test system). This seems inconsistent with the logic that PS typically follows, that TECO does not allow cost postings. The environment is ECC6 with Enhancement pack 4.
Edited by: Rebecca Poling on Jan 11, 2010 11:11 PM

Only system status CLSD (Closed) and account assignment locked don't allow actual post against WBS
Here's the explanation on TECO status from SAP Help
You use this status for WBS elements that are completed from a technical point of view, but where you still expect costs to accrue.

PM Order Confirmation create actual posting in Cost Center, with CE type 43

Dear Expert,
I would like to know the business flow of Plant Maintenance that impacts cost center reporting.
During PM order confirmation, it will create an actual posting in Cost Center from Cost Center Reporting (No FI posting), say CC Operation, with Cost Element type: 43, which is attached with the activity type of Labor Cost assigned the the PM module.
Example: Cost Center: CC Operation, Cost Element: 840001 (CE type: 43), Amount: USD 100- (negative sign)
My Question:
How does this posting (currently is in controlling only) in cost center Operation with Cost Element type: 43 be reflected in my FI reporting?
Let say there is an FI posting of labor cost in CC Operation, amount USD 100, then from Cost Center Reporting, it actually offset both amounts, and this cost center become 0 in amount.
Kindly advise the concept of Plant Maintenance.
This seems like same with the concept of KB21N.
Thanks.

Hi Karthikeyan,
My issue and concern is similar to the issue raised as follows:
Secondary Cost Element Configuration for Plant Maintenance Order
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3488730
In this forum, it says that the posting in CO, during PM order confirmation is ...
+10 for Order and -10 for cost center A
After PM Order settlement:
-10 for Order and +10 for cost center A
From the cost center and PM Order CO report, they are 0 in value ...
Is this the correct way?
Thanks,
-Chin

Balance of a General Cost Object

Hi All,
I need to know how to find out if the actual cost balance of the general cost object is zero? Also, if it is not zero - I would want to settle the costs to a profitability segment or a general ledger account before I can archive the general cost object.
Can someone help me with this requirement?
Thanks,
Janani

Hi,
Good evening and greetings,
There are reports to find out the actual values in the cost object...Depending on the object like Production Order, Product Cost Collector, Cost Centre etc there are settlement process in SAP to settle the variance.
Please reward points if found useful
Thanking you
With kindest regards

Can this scenario serve this purpose? If yes, how considering that the cost elements for fixed assets are statistical?

General Cost Object

Hi there,
Anyone familiar with the General Cost Object out there please? (referring to KKC1 - under "Intangible Goods and Services" from the SAP menu.
*Background*
I am looking to a further dimension (cost object) to breakdown/attribute costs; a cost is now attributed at a GL account, a cost center and an internal order; for some reason i need to have a further cost objective; i found the "general cost objective" and thought of them as a solution altought they are indicated for "intangible goods and services" which is not my case...
*So far..*
I have created cost object with Tcode KKC1, quite straightforward and posted a journal to a GL account / Cost center / Cost Object (I left to one side the internal order for the time being)
*Issue 1*
- the KKC1 is asking for a Profit Center as part of the Cost Object master data (mandatory field);
Question: can this field be customisable in the IMG and be left blak? we have a 1 to 1 association betwen CC and PC, the same cost object should be used on many CC;
*Issue 2*
When I try to build the report in report painter to extract the info from the journal using Table CCSS, the 3 caracteristics ( GL account, Cost Center, Cost Object ) are not available whithin the same report; I can only extract GL and Cost Center or Cost center and Cost Objct; same problem using KSB1 ( single posting for cost center ) or KKCS (single posting for cost object)
*Question*: is there a table or some setting i am missing in creating a report painter to extract simulaneously values by GL, Cost Center and Cost Object?
*General Question*
Is there any other "object of CO" i can use to achieve the goal highlithed above?
TA!
Domenico

HI,
question 1: if the cost object is used for different cost center/profit centers, assign the general profti-center to this cost object (or Dummy PRCTR). Even if its possible to leave it "blank" it does not solve your problem.
question 2: don't know, but sounds not so easy...
question 3 (general question): No
I used cost objects once for the same reason you are describing it and it was helpful, but I never had the issue with report painter...

What is the general cost for NW SSO 2.0 solutions?

Hello Masters,
Besides "Account Manager on SAP side" mentioned in OSS Note 1876552 could somebody be able to share some experiences/ideas what the general cost is about each NW SSO 2.0 solution? As different solution need different components, right? So I would understand how to license each solution? Is it number of user based or component based or other approaches to calculate?
S1: Single Sign-On with Kerberos
- Secure Login Client
- Secure Login Library
- SPNego for ABAP
- Plus, any additional cost if HTTPS used
etc...
S2: Single Sign-On with Certificates
- Secure Login Client
- Secure Login Server
- Secure Login Library
- SPNego for ABAP/JAVA
- Plus, any additional cost if HTTPS used
etc...
S3: Single Sign-On with SAML 2.0
S4: Password Manager
Kind Regards,
Jinlong

SCN is not the right place for licensing discussions. You might want to check out the list prices on SAP Store. Pricing is based on the amount of users (external/internal) not on which features are used.
