Authorization for Profit Center in SAP R3

Dear friends,
I want to give authorization for Profit Centers for T. Code F.01, FB50 etc.
I got one object related to this K_PCA but this is not checking for Profit Centers.
Please guide me how to restrict User according to Profit Center.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Let me start with removing the misconception of Auth Obj,
you can put the utmost restriction at the object but it wont help until unless
the transactions have AUTHORITY-CHECK for the auth obj. you mentioned above. so first
search in SE93 for the transaction find if there are any authority checks for the object you mentioned if they are there then see in SU24 if the object is in C or CM if it is them you can restrict otherwise change it to C or CM for it to be checked. But if the Auth Obj is not checked in the program for the Tcode then there is no way you can restrict without an development (enhancement or Custom Tcodes.)
Hope this explanation helpss

How to restrict authorization at Profit Center?

Hi all,
There is one TCODE S_AC0_52000888 : Payable for Profit Center, which will list out the details about each company code and it associated profit center.
Following is the scenario:
we have a company code 1000, This company code has some profit center.
while executing the above tcode S_AC0_52000888, we have that oppurtunity to select the
profit centers which we want to see the details for. We have some 10-20 profit centers
in company code 1000, but however, we want to restrict the users to see the details for
respective profit center.
Can any one help me in acheiving this task? your help would be greatly appreciated!
and also rewarded.
Thanks and Regards,
Faisal

Hi Friends
The problem has beend solved. It turns out that this is a report writer issue. We raised the issue with SAP and they informed that 'For Report Painter/Writer every item is checked if you have the authori-zation or not. Only the items with authorization fullfilled will be displayed afterwards'.
Based on SAP answer we created different reports for each profit center/company code.
I would like to thank you all for your time and inputs.

Hi YPS,
Before going to the interview try to be a little perfect in what you are doing.The way you have asked the question is something like demanding someone.And you have to pour some extra effort to collect informations related to the subject ..search www.sap.com. I dont know how you can expect the questions to be asked in the interview will be the same in all the companies.You cant expect people to spoon feed you with the all the questions.. give some effort and hardwork.

Reporting - restricted for profit center-wise

Hi
My client has two profit centers (1000 and 2000) in one company code. Both profit centers are totally independent. Now my client requirement is that when user of profit center 1000 runs AR01 (i.e. asset balances), he should be able to see assets only for his profit centers i.e. 1000. Asset of profit center 2000 should not appear in that report.
In EHP 4, there is provision for Profit Center-wise document posting, change and display functionality. But i want to know if this profit center-wise authorization will work for asset balances report (AR01) and other assets reports also.
Please help.
Edited by: Deepak Agrawal on Jan 1, 2012 5:43 PM

K_PCA or authorization object for profit center is not check in assets report.
In AR01 you cannot restrict the results to profit center as it is not checked in authorization . The fields which are checked are company code , Asset class and asset views.
Hence you will have to lookup for alternatives like selection based on plant or cost center or responsible cost center etc.
In case if the requirement is a show stopper then you will have to code the things in Enhancement points as there are no BADI or Exits available for the same .
Cheers,
Dewang

Authorization at profit center level

Dear All,
In FI Module we have a requirement of Authorization at Profit Center
Level.
For Example : in FB50 transaction we want to allow some users to enter
only for "1001" profit center.
We have tried the following :
We have create authorization object for PRCTR - Profit Center field and
assing that object manualy to role. But it is not working. After assigning this authoization object, profit center also comes in "Organization Level". But at transaction level no effect.
Thanks in adanace,
Nirav

Hi Nirav,
You will only invoke additional authorisation checks if the code for the transaction is changed to include the relevant AUTHORITY-CHECK code + subsequent logic.
From memory for FB50 you will need to look into an appropriate user exit or enhancement point to code this additional check. Alternatively you could use an alternative control such as random sampling for those users.

Posting depreciation run (AFAB) for profit center

I have 3 plants and each plant is created as separate profit center.
All plants want to run and post depreciation independently. So i wanted to know if AFAB (depreciation posting) can be executed profit center-wise.
Please advice

There are no SAP notes.
Because we are looking something beyond the original design of the system.
You can post the depreciation per company code, but not for profit center. In AFAB, you cannot get profit center selection screen.
As a statistical object, finally your profit center gets the postings, which you can view them in the report.
But, if you want to run AFAB based on profit center selection criteria, then, it is NOT possible. There is NO SAP notes for that.

Balancing error for profit center in transaction FB08

Dear All,
We have made Vendor payments for some invoices. But for some reaseon, we have to reverse the document. When we try to do FB08, we are unable to do so and we are also getting an error ' Balancing error for Profit center.' In our case though we are on ECC6, we have not activated Document splitting.
Kindly suggest how to reverse this document and what additianal steps to be followed to overcome this error.
Thanx
Shivaji

Hi Shivaji,
Please check the field status group of the GL accounts which you are reversing and check whether the Profit center field is maintained as Mandatory or not .If its so, then please change it as to Optional and try.
In your case you are not activated the document splitting function.so that i recommend you to check the same.
So please Check the field status group of vendor payment GL accounts for reversing .Ie Bank Account GL and Vendor Recon Account GL. If the profit center field for these GL are maintianed as mandatory in the field status group ,then change it as to Optional .
Please let me know...
Regards

What is the criteria for define GL for profit center

Dear Profit center Guru,
Can guide , what is the business logic to "Choose Additional Balance Sheet and P&L Accounts/Choose Accounts" for profit center. all the Proft Loss accounts should be there? or what kind of PL should be there , and what kind of Balance sheet accounts should be defined for profit center.
Thanks,
Kick

Hi H.Kick
at Choose Additional Balance Sheet and P&L Accounts/Choose Accounts we define which accounts or account intervals we want to transfer to Profit Center Accounting. It is imperative that we maintain all the GL accounts which need to be transferred to Profit center. Needless to say that if we donu2019t maintain the GL accounts here, the balance will not be transferred to PCA.
This setting is also particularly required, if no profit center is entered for a specific transaction in one of these GL accounts, the system posts to the default profit center for that account interval.
This particular configuration can also be called from the SAP easy access
menu by entering 3KEH in the command field.
Note that the GL codes for Customers and Vendors including Advances (special GL account) which are called Reconciliation accounts should not be maintained in the 3KEH table. Reason being the Customers and Vendors line items are not transferred to the PCA module online. We have to run month
end programs to transfer Customer and Vendor balance from FI module to PCA Module
These are GL codes which are reconciliation accounts for customer and vendors, that should be excluded from the 3KEH table.
Hope i tried my best to make you clear on this.
as well see comments in the thread by MR.vanne what is the criteria for define GL for profit center
Thanks...Vyas

Budget For Profit Center

HI,
Besides using the UDT and write our own query to generate the report, is that any alternative to define the Budget for Profit Center in SBO 2005A SP01 without having the Account Segmentation?

Hello Jack,
Here is the scenario how you can work with budget for profit centers:
1) Set G/L account in Chart of Account:
1.1 - Check Distribution Rule box, then select a cost center for this
account.
1.2 - Click account Details Button, check box "Relevant to Budget".
2) Define Budget a Budget Scenario, Distribution method and amount of
this G/L Account in Financials->Budget setup
3) Run Profit Center Report to see the all the transaction of this
account
4) Run the Budget Report (on Profit Center)
Generate this report to analyze the business activities that took place
during a defined period with reference to a selected budget scenario.
You can choose a profit center, to generate a report which reflects the
budget used for the profit center activities.
