Assigning Manual Cost/Profit Center in Sales/Purchase Order

I don't really know how to describe my problem, so I will instead describe my situation of what I need to do.
We have all our G/L accounts associated with Cost elements with no Cost/Profit centers set as default.  The cost elements represent our services (ex: internet sale, hardware sale, software sale) and our cost/profit centers represent our employees.  My question is how/where do I assign a cost/profit center manually when creating the sales/purchase order?  Basically I would preferably like to assign the cost/profit center based on the corresponding sales person to the sales order.  For the purchase order we are acting as a middle man between vendor and customer, so how would we assign a manual cost/profit center that pertains to us?
If you have a good solution to this, please provide detailed steps or instructions with t-codes and walkthroughs as I have very little knowledge about how the cost/profit centers work.  I do understand sales/purchase orders though.

Hi Lee
There is a transaction code OKB9 for automatic assignment of Cost Element, Cost Center, Profit Center for a Company Code. There you have to assign the Cost Center and Profit Center combination to a particular cost element.
I hope this will work out for your problem
Please let me know it is working or not
Regards

    Hi
    There is perform which moves the values to VBAP field.
    This PRCTR field is stored in VBAP (i.e., SO line item table)

    Hi Srinivas
    If you want to assign the profit center then make sure that the Profit center is assigned in MMR->Sales orgn 1 view . 
    But to assign the Profit center in MMR also you need to configure the Profit center first for your Material in your company code with the help of FI/CO consultants and then assign then the profit center will flow from MMR to sales order  item data->account assignment tab

  • Profit center in sales order .... WRT to Distribution channel

    Dear Folks,
      Here is a strange requirement to my client...based on distribution channel profit center needs to be derived in sales order  needs solution in  Standard SAP if available...typical example Mat X serves from 3 Distribution channels.....3 different profit centers needs to be derived in sales order based on DC ....I suggested the Substitution rule in FICO...but client is denying that....he  needs solution in SD only..if there is any wayout please let me know .
    Best Regards,
    SGR

    hi
    Defaulting PC from the material master is just one of the ways that SAP can do it, but since I can't currently remember anything about PCA I can't tell you what the others are!
    However, I did find the following documentation which looks to be the "standard" way of doing what you want. This is the IMG documentation of transaction 0KEM (menu path SPRO-Controlling-- Profit Center Accounting-- Assignments to Profit Centers-- Sales Orders-- Sales Order Substitutions).
    Define Substitution Rules
    In this activity you define substitution rules for finding the default profit center for sales order items. It makes sense to use substitution rules if the profit center proposed from the material master does not meet your requirements.
    Example
    You want to use a sales office or a distribution channel as a profit center.
    Standard Settings
    No predefined substitution rules exist.
    Activities
    Proceed as described under Maintain Substitutions in Customizing for FI-SL Special Purpose Ledgers. The following are predefined in
    Customizing for Profit Center Accounting:
    o The application area (Profit Center Accounting)
    o The callup point (Create Sales Order)
    o The field to be substituted (Profit Center)
    You can substitute the profit center with a constant value or by assigning a table field. It is also possible to use a user exit.
    Additional Information
    For more information on substitution rules, see the documentation for Financial Accounting on the component "FI-SL Special Purpose Ledgers" (in the chapter "Basic Functions"). Also, read the notes in the online documentation under Financial Accounting -> Special Ledgers ->Validation and Substitution -> Substitution.

  • Can we assign the same profit center to diff costcenter master data

    hi all
    can we assign the same profit center to diff costcenter master data 
    what are the impacts in control parameters  for actual and plan  dat a
    Thanks
    MvNr

    Hello,
    There is no need that you should have the profit center and cost center one to one relation.
    You can assign number of profit centers to a cost center. Meaning that the same profit center can be used in different cost center master data. Whenever, you make posting to cost center, the same will be flown to profit center.
    For example when you post actual line items, it will update GLPCA and GLPCT in profit center accounting.

    Hi
    If this SO is processed partially - i.e. transactions happened - You cant change it
    You can use ABAP and change it in Debug mode, but not advisable... Better to short close the SO and open a new SO for Balance qty

  • Profit center wise Sales revenue

    Hi ALl,
    I am creating a sales query in Bi 7.0
    This query should display sales KF (from 0SD_C03) against profit centre values.
    I have used 2lis_13_vditm for sales values which doesn't have profit center.
    What do you suggest would be the best way to bring profir center values?
    Thanks and regards,
    Sharmishtha

    Hi,
    If you want to use 2lis_13_vditm with 0SD_C03 cube and show Profit center wise Sales revenue then you need to enhance the DataSource and workout, else implement CO-PA.
    If you catch the Profit centre using some Key Fields in 2lis_13_vditm datasource then it is easy, so discuss with SD/FI-CO Cunsultants and decide.
    Thanks

  • Subsititute cost center, profit center, BA in maintenance order Addit.Tab

    Hello.
    I wonder if it's possible to substitute cost center, profit center, BA in maintenance order Addit.data Tab
    according to the WBS element
    I think, in maintenance order Addit data Tab (IW31),
    cost center and profit center is coming from work center.
    and business area is coming from equipment or functional location master which I input
    But the thing is WBS has that informaiotn(cost center, profit center, BA ) as well.
    and since we need to use the same information(cost center, profit center, BA )
    so Users need to change cost center, profit center, BA after checking WBS element information(CJ13)
    so, is there any way to substitute(or change) cost center, profit center, BA  automatically
    in maintenance order Addit.data TAB, when I input WBS element and press enter key?
    any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thank you for your reply
    Could you tell me more how to have a look at IWO10010 Maint. order
    (Cust. enhancement for determining WBS element)
    I'm kinda new in ABAP so please help me

  • Profit Center on Sales Order

    Hello Experts,
    We have a profit center substitution rule already that says if sales org = 'ABC' then substitute the profit center on sales order with '123'
    Now we have a new requirement and according to that we should use a different profit center if the Salesorg = 'ABC' and material master profit center = 'CDE' then profit center should be 'XYZ'. How can we achieve this?
    Even though the material master has the new profit center 'XYZ' , Sales order is using the substitution rule and not using the material master profit center.
    Your help if appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    the substitution rule works after the profit center derivation from material master.
    I suggest to change the substitution in a case that whenever the profitcenter derived from material master is ok, no substitution step takes place.
    At the moment substitution works at rvery line item even if the derivation from mat.master is ok.

    Hi,
    SAP give note 539421 - Dummy profit center with cost center
    account assignment. Looks applicable for your case.
    Solution:
    With the attached modification, you can restore the function from Release
    3.1: The directly assigned profit center remains and is not overwritten
    with the dummy profit center of the cost center.
    The problem is not caused by a program error in this case. The profit
    center is always derived from the existing CO account assignment even if
    this is the dummy profit center (see also Note 62417).
    This note applicable from release 40 until 605
    I hope this can help you. FYI, in my case, i do not create dummy profit centre, then profit centre working as sap priority.

    Thank you for your respond, but I have few questions:
    myText = myText.replace(/\bred\b/gi, "<font color='#ff0000'><a href='event:redClick'>$&</a></font>");
    -myText.replace: how this finction works?
    -what is this?
    /\bred\b/gi
    -it's not a link , I need a hover listener to this spesific word.
    -where do you assign the word you want to highlight? And can I assign more than one word without writing the same code over again?
    -this looks like html and I don't use any in my project, can you write this line without html?
    <font color='#ff0000'><a href='event:redClick'>$&</a></font>
    I don't understand the functionality of these line:
    var pattern:RegExp = new RegExp("\(\?\<\=\\s)" + string + "(?=[\\s|\,])", "ig");
         var result:Object = pattern.exec(text);
         while (result) {
              textField.setTextFormat(highLightFormat, result.index, result.index + string.length);
              result = pattern.exec(text);
    what is
    RegExp?
    result?
    pattern.exec?
    Sorry if these are alot of questions, I just want to understand.
