Authorization Object for Cost center

Hi Experts;
We are using SRM 7, classic scenario.
We are copying SRM tcode: BBP_BW_SC4 to a Z report and modify it. The users will be given the access to display the status of thier SC.
How can I restrict the user from displaying the SC of other department's? Is there an authorization object for cost center in SRM? is there any other away to restrict the users from displaying SC related to other depts.
Appreciate your help

by the way, why are you not using the standard SAP powl queries? they anyways restrict you from viewing others SCs except your team
any ways, if you are copying that report this BBP_BW_SC4, then change this
PARAMETERS pa_coce TYPE kostl OBLIGATORY DEFAULT lv_costcenter.
to
PARAMETERS pa_coce TYPE kostl OBLIGATORY DEFAULT lv_costcenter no-display.

BPS Retraction for Cost Center Accounting - Cost Element - Compounding with

Hello everybody,
I'm using the "BPS Retraction for Cost Center Accounting" described in the blog from Praveen Mayalur. I have customized the BPS system (3.5) as described.
But if i started the retraction i receive a dump. I have debug a little bit and i found out that there is a problem with the InfoObject "Cost Element". It is compounding with two InfoObjects "Source system ID" and "Controlling area".
PERFORM FILL_RSRDEP USING I_AREA
                          I_CHANM
                          ITO_CHADEP
                    CHANGING LT_RSRDEP
                             L_SUBRC.
IF L_SUBRC NE 0.
*Abhängige Merkmale müssen in der ITO_CHADEP stehen
MESSAGE X099(UPC).
ENDIF.
Does anybody have this problem before. ?
Regards Detlev

Hi,
it looks that your 0COSTELEMNT has been changed and the additional compounding object 0SOURSYSTEM has bben added. In BI Content it is only compounded to 0CO_AREA. So may be this is the problem.
To be sure that it works you must make the change in your source system to and "compound" 0COSTCENTER to 0SOURSYSTEM. Or you have to chabge the retraction that way that it ignores the source system and only reads 0CO_AREA and costcenter.

Search Help for Cost center

Hi All,
I have 2 questions
1) we dont have any default cost center maintained any where in the org-structure (PPOMA_BBP), howeverwhenever I go for shopping I can see a cost center along with GL account, ( I know GL acct is coming from "determine GL account for prod-cat" settings in IMG), but what about cost center where is it coming from ??
2) second, when we do search help for cost center's in shopping application, we are able to see all cost centers from the back end which I guess is good, but we can see even those cost centers which are blocked!!!, why is this happening ??,
Thanks.

Hello,
For First::
In general the CO Area (here: cost center) is derived from R/3 Backend Enterprise
Structure and should be re-determined if another acc. objects is
entered that belongs to a different CO Area. Please also check the
settings in R/3 Backend IMG, path:
->Enterprise Structure ->Assignment ->Controlling
->Assign company code to controlling area
The company code is assigned to the CO Area through the following
assignment:
->Materials Management
->Assign purchasing organization to company code
The CO Area is in general the organizational object in
highest (CO) level. Assignments to other MM/CO objects are located
in lower Enterprise hierarchy level. Hence, the CO Area does not
change if a different CO object of a lower level (here: cost center)
is assigned to a SRM document.
For Second::
The only possibility I see is to set the message to error message in
the customizing in the backend. The message number is KI 170. When you
look at the long text of this message in transaction SE91 in the
backend, you will find the description where to look in the customizing.
When you have set this message to ERROR, then no purchase order will be
created in the backend. Instead the shopping basket gets the status
'ERROR' and the administrator will recieve a work item in his inbox.
Then he can check the backend and either post the purchase orders again
after solving the problem, or he can delete the shopping baskets.
Please check the note for more infos or the documentation.
Setting the message KI 170 to error message will solve your problem.
See note 333136. I would think that if you create
a PO directly in the backend if you do not have the message configured
as and error you will be able to create the PO.
I hope this information helps.
Kind regards,
Gaurav

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

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

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

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.
