" Automatic creation of Cost object owners"
Hello Experts,
I am working on a rollout project, for "Inter Company Service Invoicing (ICSI)"
Presently my client requirement is " Automatic creation of Cost object owners"
First of all i will explain the process
In ICSI there are two parties one is Service Requestor(SREQ) and other one is Service Provider(SPROV)
Depending on SREQ requirement SPROV will create a SO and send it to SPROV
It will reach SREQ contact person, he will updates Cost objects, and send it to SREQ reviewer person, he will check the cost objects and send it to Cost object owner of the SREQ.
He will approve the SO, once all approvals hasbeen done, then system automatically converts SO to IV, and post entries on both sides automatically ata the same time.
Here my requirement is on SREQ side the Cost Object Owner should find automatically.
And we done this proces in Portal itself.
Your suggestions will be great help to me, and are appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Any inputs please...............
Regards,
Satya.
Hello Ajay,
Thank you for the response.
But my requirement is not to populate cost objest.
It is the approval flow. The reviewer person will check and add the cost objects to the service order and send that Service Order for the final approval i.e.. Cost Object Owner.
So here my requirement is the System has to create that Cost Object Owners Automaticlly
How can i achieve this?

Automatic creation of Cost Object owner in work flow
Hello Experts,
Business requirement background is
SREQ Contact person just enter cost object and submit for approval.In all cost object cases he can save the service order and submit. After SREQ FRA reviewer approval, before workflow notification mail is sent to cost object owner, system will check if the user exist in X92 system or not. If user is not exist, based on GDDB id, automatically the user will get created in X92.
The folw of Service Order is as follows:-
Service order creator----> Service Provider (SPROV) FRA reviewer -
> Service Requestor (SREQ) Contact Person -
> Service Requestor (SREQ) FRA person -
> Service type owner/Cost Object Owner
And The solution will be as follows:
1). Once the SREQ FRA reviewer approves the SO, then the notification mail be send to the Cost Object Owner
2). Here system should check GDDB ID of the Cost Object Owner, is it exist in X92 system or not.
3). If GDDB ID is not there in X92 system, then on the basis of the GDDB ID, the system should automatically create the SAP user ID for the CO Owner and an email is to be send to the CO Owner for the approval of the SO along with the user id details.
4). If GDDB ID exists in X92, the SO will be submitted for further approvals.
How to Customize the steps 2 & 3 that i mentioned in the solution?
Any help form experts will be appreciated and rewarded

Automatic creation of cost elements
Dear All,
The automtic creation of cost elements functionality is not working for some GL accounts in production. When new GL accounts are created, the same are not created as cost elements. All the standard settings viz 'selection of automatic creation' in controlling area configuration, creation of number ranges in OKB2 etc are in place. We posted in OSS and they are not able to find reasons why this is happening.
Has anyone faced a situation like this? Please post your valuable thoughts and share your inputs. We currently have a log created by user on this and pending for quite sometime.
Thanks in advance
VenkateshHi,
Yes. We do face problem like this often. We wriggle out by updating through manually when we are very nearer to go-live date. Otherwise, we can create an abap program and meet the deficiency.
Trust this helps much!

Creation of cost elements automatically
Hi,
When I selected "manual creation of cost elements" in OB13, Then we can create a group of cost elements in OKB2 followed by OKB3 and SM35.
Even I need to do same thing I when I select " automatic creation of cost elements" ??
I tried selecting " automatic creation of cost elements". and I checked in KA03 whether it had created any cost element automatically. but it didnt created any thing...
Please suggest..Dear Santosh Dharana,
Good Question. i can clarify you. this question
1. when you select in ob13 create cost elements manually
when your are using in obk2 we have to maintain here Acc from no. to Acc to no. ranges for Gl's and cost element categeory.
after we can run batch in put in obk3 & SM 35 it's updated successfully.
Note: After execute, *when you are try create another GL account with cost element we have to give cost element categeory by manually.
2.when you select in ob13 create cost elementsAutomatically
when your are using in obk2 we have to maintain here Acc from no. to Acc to no. ranges for Gl's and cost element categeory.
after we can run batch in put in obk3 & SM 35 it's updated successfully.
Note: After execute, when you are try create another GL account with cost element we don't have to give any cost element categeory here system automatically give .
Please try it. i worked for this one

Creation primary cost elements
Primary cost elements can be generated in batch for creation, but then it seems to me it's all of them or nothing.
Is this also possible for 1 year for instance or for a limited number of cost elements, via another transaction for instance. MASS create?Hi Walter,
First of all you have to select automatic creation of cost elements for your chart of account in OB13.
Next in OKB2, you have to specify the cost element category for the range or single cost elemets.
Next create batch input session in OKB3, here you can give from and to valid date.
You have to execute the created batch input session in SM35.

Sales order - automatic creation of purchase requisition - cost assignment
Hi
When the sales order is released, we have an automatic creation of Purchase requisation. We have given "internal order" as the cost obect in the sales order. But when the system has created automatic purchase requisition, it has not picked internal order. What could be the reason?
Thank you for the help.
Thanks
RamHi
I feel that it is abug in the development you have carried out for creation of Purchase requisition when a sales order is relased,
Please check the enhancement, you need to pass the values to the correct table after derivation.
Thanks & Regards

Automatic Creation of Equipment Master
Hi Experts
I have gone through lot of discussion available on forum but still Asset Equipment link is not working.
I would like to create Equipment when I create Asset.
I have done below settings.
1) Asset Accounting --> Master Data --> Automatic Creation of Equipment Master -> Specify Conditions for Synchronization of Master Data
here i have assigned equipment category and object type and selected direct synchronization after saving in Create Equipment
2) Asset Accounting --> Master Data --> Automatic Creation of Equipment Master -> Assign Master Data Fields of Assets and Equipment
here i have assigned fields here.
When I create asset and save its only creating assets and even not getting error message . I have also checked screen layout and equipment is optional and not seems to be a problem.
To see whether synchronization functionality works I have done settings from Equipment to Asset creation and it's working but that's not the requirement.
I have changed the settings back to the 1) above to create equipment when asset is being created and it's not working.
So to summaries when I create Asset - No equipment is created but if i change settings other way then asset is getting created from equipment.
My question is what settings are missing to create Equipment when I create Assets?
Is there any settings required from equipment side? any specific requirement on equipment category and object type?
Thank you.Hi,
Simple,
1. Go to AOLK and check which tab layout is assigned to your asset class, to transaction group 'Others'.
2. Go to AOLA select layout you found out at 1st step, then double click on 'Tab Page Titles'.
3. Select tab page Allocations and click on position group on tab pages.
4. Click on new entries and insert 'S0013', save.
after doing this you will be able to find 'equipment' box under allocation.
and regarding asset synchronization..
Asset Accounting --> Master Data --> Automatic Creation of Equipment Master -> Specify Conditions for Synchronization of Master Data
In this step, under the box 'Edit Asset Master Record' mention,
Create Equipment 2 Direct Synchronization after saving
Change Equipment 2 Direct Synchronization after saving
Make sure you do not have any other field 'required' in equipment creation and not assigned to asset field.
After doing this you should be able to get equipment created automatically..

Automatic Creation of Settlement Rule for Maintenance Order
Hi,
While doing TECO for Maintenance Order, its asking for Settlement Rule. IF I click settlement rule, message is coming as Maintain Settlement Profile with options like With Default, Without Default & Cancel.
I have maintained the Cost center in Equipment Master. Also I maintained Cost Center as Default Settlement receiver.
Also I have gone through setting in Automatic Creation of Settlement Rule under Controlling Category.
But I couldnt understand that. Can you please tell what are the steps to be done?
Regards,
Maheswaran.Hi,
Please check the indicatorsin Actual cost/cost sales and Valid recevivers in settlement profile.
If for cost center : 1 settlement optional is maintained in valid recevivers and also for order
and in actual cost/ cost sales: indicator to be settled in full is selected.
Also check Allocation structure too if you have assigned the valid allocation structure.
**check if you have assigned the valid settlement profile to order types.
*****Most important after doing all these settings you need to create new order. for same order you will not get the automatic settlement rule
Hope this helps.

IO automatic creation of plan settlement rule according to actual settlemen
Hi guys,
does anybody know, if it is possible to create mass wise plan settlement rules on internal orders according to actual settlement rule? Sounds like a normal requirement, but I did not find anything.
Automatic creation of settlement rule seems only to work like (KSR1_ORC in customizing):
01 No autom. calculation / manual maintenance
02 Settlement to a profitability segment
03 Settlement to a requesting cost center
04 Settlement to a responsible cost center
05 Settlement to sales order
06 Settlement to a WBS element
08 Settlement rule from assigned WBS element
30 Settlement on Acct Assgnmnt from CRM or Errors
31 Settlement on Acct Assgnment from CRM or on Event
35 Settlement on Receiver from Accounting Indicator
but nothing like "automatic on basis actual settlement rule"....
Note: we can not use any of the above rules for plan, since also actual has to be entered manually.

BjoernHi
See if you can use exit COOM0003 for auto creation of settlement rules.. Here you can write your own logic

Movement 543 F always take sales order as cost object
Dear sap expert,
I run MTO scenario.
In one of my step before a product become finish good, the semi finish good need to sent to subcon vendor (the material need another process outside company production line).
The good issue journal is happen when we good receipt finish good from vendor.(FI team make it that way).
When posting good issue, MM use movement type 543 F.
The GL number for issuing material is 300196.
The problem is , movement type 543 F always take sales order as cost object even though I already delete the sales order when good issue to subcon vendor using tcode MIGO (good issue to vendor).
And I already settiing PA tranf structure of the GL account to a value field and also already setting OKB9 so the GL can automatically post to profi segment (COPA).
MM team also already set default setting layout 543 F for sales order as SUPPRESS.
But, still when run MIGO, the system still take sales order as cost object not to COPA (profit segment).
But, if i use 543 E with same dafault setting layout as 543 F, it works (the GL is post to COPA not sales order).
How can this happen?
What should I do to make the GL post to COPA not sales order when using movement type 543 F?
Please kindly help.Hi Anu
If you are in MTO scenario and your sales order is defined as a cost object, then the system behaviour is correct..
Check if the following settings apply in your case...
1. Go to sale order, procurement tab
2. Check whats the req type
3. Go to OVZH and check whats the req class assigned to this req type
4. Go to OVZG and check whats the acount assignment cateory in req class
5. The account assignment catg would be having consumption posting field as E

Automatic creation of Purchase Order from Sales Order
Hi,
please is it possible to know the use of flag "Create PO automatically" into Sales Order Item Category customizing setting? Perhaps automatic creation of PO for Third Party sales process.
Thank you very much
Kind Reards
AndreaHi friend,
You are right that chekbox is used for third party only. And it will be used when you are using ALE when you have distributed system where your sales order is supposed to be created in different system and PO will be raised in different system.
If you activate this field, the system automatically generates both a purchase order requisition for third-party schedule lines as well as a purchase order in the background when you save the sales order. This function has been designed for Application Link Enabling (ALE) but you can also use it when working with distributed systems.
To avoid errors caused by incorrect system settings, we recommend that you carry out the SAPEVENT OCU_LINK\DS:TRAN.BD86 for your third-party material. If you SAPEVENT OCU_LINK\DS:TRAN.PFTS tasks 8097 (create)and 8114 (change) (by choosing "Extras -> Employee assignment -> Maintain"), you will receive workflow objects in your inbox, should any errors occur. -
Project settlement to CO-PA and BAdI for automatic creation of rules
Hello SAP experts!
I have managed to implement settlement rule strategy to CO-PA for sales project WBS-elements, which automatically creates the settlement rules for WBS-elements with billing indicator. One or more sales order items are assigned to the WBS-elements. When the system derives settlement rules, it generates profitability segments that contain the characteristic values of the WBS elements and the sales orders assigned to them. The problem is, that only one single settlement receiver is determined for each WBS-element. And if more that one sales order item is assigned to the same WBS-element only those characteristics are copied to the settlement rule that are same in all sales order items.
For example; it products are different in all sales order items, the automatically created settlement rule does not contain the characteristic value product or neighter other caracteristics derived from product.
Do You have experience of using BAdI for influencing the generation of settlement rules? What it actually makes possible?
Br, NinaDear Waman,
thank you for your reply !
Yet - this still does not solve our problem. In that note (and also in the related note 201445) there is no valuable information included concerning transaction currency:
Our WBS elements (and also other cost objects, e.g. sales order items) are being debited in all of the three currencies.....but the credit (during settlement) only takes place in two of them: object and CO area currency.
I really appreciate additional help on this. It would be hard to believe that we are the only SAP customer having this kind of problem.
Best regards,
