Assign Sales Office to a GL Account and Profit Centre

Where do I assign a Sales Office to a GL Account and Profit Centre.

Currently a when we create a sales document for a plant, that document is posting to a specific GL account (Cash on Hand account) and profit centre. In VKOA, the Account Assignment Group is assignment to a GL Account, and that AAG is assigned to the material master. I want to find out how SAP is currently determining to which profit centre and GL Account it is posting to. The only thing that I can get is the Plant and sales office in the Sales document. I want to know the determination factor.

Assign Plant to a GL Account and Profit Centre

Where do I assign a plant to a GL account and Profit Centre.

Hi,
a plant is not direct assigned to a profit-center and not to a G/L account.
A plant is assigned to a company code (in customizing), a GL account can be created (account master data) within a company code (if its used in this CC), a profit-center is assigned to one/more company codes (profit-center master data).
In material master / costing 1 view (which is plant related) you can assign a material to a profit center, thus all postings in one plant related to this material belong to this profit center.
Best regards, Christian

Help required: how to makes sales office field mandatory, in inquiry and qu

I want to make the field sales office as mandatory , in Inquiry and quotation, please guide me how i can do it.

hi
if so then u do one thing.. enter the Tcode and then in variant name .. keep the field empty and search for Transaction variant by giving only the tcode.VA11
if u find any transaction variants for Va11 then u can use that or else serach with VA01 and c how many Transaction Variants u r getting.. to my guess u must only be getting BUS2030..
if that is the case u have to create new transaction variant for va11 and then proceed the process
=====================
GOT THE SOLUTION
=====================
SHD0 > enter tcode VA11 > F5 > Give the Enquiry type (IN) > give the details sales org, dist chnl, div, > Press Enter > will get the fields with options..
Same in the case of VA21 .. giving sales org , dist chnl, div is not compulsary.. just give the document type and can proceed..

Link between G/L Account and profit center

Hello dear all,
I have an issue in Intra-company process.
I made 2 customer payment for 2 different company code:
1/ Company 1000: i have 2 line items posted (in G/L View)
2/ Company 2000: For the same Cash account and the same customer account used in my first case (with company 1000) i have 4 line item posted in the G/L view and with different " PARTNER PROFIT CENTER"
I do not know wher can i find in customizing the link between G/L Account and Profit center ?
Thank you in advance

The document splitting is active in your company, at the same time, the "zero balance" for profit center is activated in your doc split characteristics. In order to balance the profit center in General View, it creates another line item for balancing it which is the zero balancing account or split the cash account according to profit center assignment. For some cases, they are split equally that is why it is best that you assign the profit center in the cash account upfront and create line item for each payment with different profit center assignment.
For instance, there are two customer line items with different profit center assignment
Customer Line Item 1 = Assigned to Profit Center 2000 amount 500
Customer Line Item 2 = Assigned to Profit Center 3000 amount 500
When I post a payment of 1000, the Entry View is
Cash                 1000
    Customer                1000
GL View
Cash       PC 2000       500
     Customer PC 2000         500
Cash      PC 3000        500
     Customer PC 3000          500

Division and Profit Centre Relationship?

Hi,
Is anyone able to provide a definition of the objects DIVISION and PROFIT CENTRE and also what their relationship is with each other?
Thanks,
M.

Division : A way of grouping materials, products, or services. The system uses divisions to determine the sales areas and the business areas for a material, product, or service.
A product or service is always assigned to just one division. From the point of view of sales and distribution, the use of divisions lets you organize your sales structure around groups of similar products or product lines. This allows the people in a division who process orders and service customers to specialize within a manageable area of expertise.
Profit Centre: An organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
Operating results for profit centers can be analyzed using either the cost of sales approach or the period accounting approach.
By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your profit centers for use as investment centers.

Relation between Prod. Hierarchy and Profit Centre

Dearest all,
does anybody know what the relation between prod. hierarchies and profit centre?
actually, i am trying to display total of actual line items (table GPCPT, if i am not wrong). The total value grouped by Profit Centre?
But I want to display them per Product hierarchies...
Question:
1. More than 1 product hierarchies could be assigned to 1 profit center, right ? (I checked in the matl master, checking all matl)
2. Could I find other way to do this ? any suggestion ?
thanks in advance,

Cost centre and Profit centre in one query - Authorisations not working!

Hiya,
I have another problem related to Analysis Authorisations.
I have created an AA with Cost Centre and Profit centre access restricted to a certain node of a hierarchy (type 1 - this node and below). For example, the User can only run a query at Cost Centres level of Country Belgium - the query works fine. Now, the user wants to drill down by the relevant Profit centres. According to the log, the system checks for Profit centres like * and says the user is not authorised. All this, despite the fact that all Profit centres belong to country Belgium and user has been given access to see these profit centres.
What do I need to do to enable drilldown by Profit centre? I can't make a "*" access to Profit centre as the user will be able to run other queries at global level, which is not what I can allow.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
I don't know if it is relevant, but I had a similar problem when I had two characteristic each with hierarchy restrictions in one authorization object.
I "solved" it by separting each characteristic into its own authorization object.

Changing Cost of SAles Account form Profit Centre to Cost Centre

In order to be able to forecast against Cost of Sales accounts within the same process and plan version as expenditure accounts, I am proposing to create Cost Elements on the G/L accounts associated (they currently post to Profit Centre).
Apart from losing history reporting, are there any issues to consider before making this change (e.g automatic account assignment)

Hello Shirley,
Here are the areas that I can think of:
1) Field Status Group for Cost objects- OB41 and OB14: For all the GL's that will be created as Cost Element, ensure that Cost Center is not a "Suppressed" or "Display" field, it has to be a "Required" or at least an "Optional" field. (Internal Orders, if used, need similar treatment)
2) Field Status Group for Profit Centers: Similarly, if you have made Profit Center a "Required" field, then you may want to make it "Optional" and allow it to be defaulted from the Cost Center or Internal Order
3) Profit Center Derivation: 3KEH / 3KEI: Entries in these tables, if any, need to be removed for the Accounts that are being created as Cost Elements.
4) Default Account Assignment: OKB9: In case you are not able to enter Cost Center / Internal Order at the time of FI Document entry, then you will need to include these in OKB9.
Hope this information helps.
Regards.
Ashish.

Table relation between Sales Organization and Profit centre

Hi everybody,
I hava a question:
How do I know wich Sales organitzation (VKORG) belongs to a Profit centre(PRCTR), which table relation do I need to do to find it, or from wich table do I get this relation because I haven't found anything.
I've been asked to get the Profit Centre given a Sales Organization.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Moises,
Firstly get the Sales Order Number (VBELN) and Sales Organization(VKORG) from VBAK.
Now based on the the Sales Order Number (VBELN) get the Profit Center(PRCTR) from VBAP.
Now you can relate Sales Organization and Profit Center.
Regards,

Hi,
There is no relationship between Sales District and Profit Center. If in case, for business requirements, Sales Districts can be created as profit centers.
