Hello,
>Cost center will be given in the asset master....you aware of it...ok...
>At the time of scrapping the asset the scrap will go to necessary scrap GL for that you have to give cost center in OKB9...you aware of it but you dont want to happen like this...and you need to have a different cost center(ie., as in the asset master) ....quite complicated....
> ok...to achieve this atleast should have different profit center for each assets..do you have? if so..... Then come to OKB9 in the acct assignment column give value 3 and in the subdialouge box click on Details per profit center wise ....there you can give cost center per prctr.
Hope this helps.

Which is the best way to assign cost center to cost element?

Hi,
I am getting the below error...
569400- Gain/Loss Inventory Transfer account requires Cost Object Assignment
which is best practice to assign cost center - either assign in KA02 or assign in OKB9-automatic account assignment?
Please advise ...
Thanks
Kishore

HI,
assignment in KA02 is valid for the whole controlling area, assignment in OKB9 can be different on comp. code level (maybe thats an andvantage for you). Substitution (OKC9) is also possible and delivers more opportunities than OKB9.

Assign Cost Center for Internal Consumption in Sales Order

Dear Experts,
I have a scenario is that Marketing Manager want to give a gift to his customer, the expense of this gift will be charged to Marketing Department. As the law, the invoice of this gift is required with the posting as below:
Dr Expense acc 5000 USD
Cr Revenue acc 5000 USD
(Assume that there is no tax)
I create a Sales Order with the Product is the Gift that will give to customer, and I also assign the Cost Center as Marketing Department. The problem is when I generate the billing document from this Sales Order, the system throw the error: Cost Center XYZ (Marketing Department) is not allowed posting revenue. This error happen because I don't want to post revenue to Cost Center, I want only Expense will be posted to Cost Center. But because I assigned Cost Center in header of Sales Order, system will post both revenue an expense to this CO object. Now what I want to do is post Expense to Cost Center, revenue to Profit Segment. Is it possible and what I need to do if it is possible?

Assigning cost center to material and GL

I have two material 100 and 200 and two material X and Y.
I would like to make the setting that when material 100 is used it should go to GL X and Cost center 500 and whe material 200 is used it should go to GL Y and cost center 500.
Substitution is the last thing which I can do.
But have been told to assign cost center in the accoutnig veiw of material master and then make assign gl to Material in type in VKOA or OBYC.
Can anyone let me know how to do this
thanks

Hi Ravana
You can assign profit center in the material master and not cost center.
As far I know there is no standard settings other substitution which would satisfy your requirement.
Even VKOA or OBYC only satisfies upto the GL Account and not the cost center part. You can assign gl accounts to various movements of the said materials.

Why we assign cost center while posting to any G/L

Hi All,
I need one clarification.
Why we assign cost center while posting to any G/L, even though we have been assign cost center to the cost element it will post the co entry through cost element.
Please any one make me understand the internal logic and process of how cost element and cost center works.
Thanks
Nandha
help.sap.com

Find below your clarification for the points
Why we assign cost center while posting to any G/L, even though we have been assign cost center to the cost element it will post the co entry through cost element.: Once you have assigned cost center to cost element in T.code OKB9 or KA01, no need of manually entering the cost center for the respecting primary cost GL while passing enteris.
Please any one make me understand the internal logic and process of how cost element and cost center works.: Whenever you post a cost to primary cost element , you require an object in Controlling , such as cost center to identify the costs. This primary costs are only created when the respective GL exist in the operational chart. Cost center is the location where cost incurs. Thus when you assign the cost to cost center , the cost will be booked against that particular location .

Forgot to assign Cost center for one of the GL account and positing are don

Hi All,
I have created GL account but forgot to assign Cost center to that GL, now some 1000 documents are posted in that account,
what is the best way to resolved this problem.
your respond is appreciated.
Thanks,
Supriya.

Hi Supriya
In such scenario, always keep the below 5 steps in mind
1. The T code is OKBA (and not OBKA)
2. Create the cost element and assign a default cost center in KA02
3. Execute OKBA by inputting the 1000 doc nos
4. All these vlaues will hit one single cost center
5. Now do a KB11N if you wish, to transfer the values from This cost center in KA02 to the desired cost center....

Assign cost center to cost collector

Dear all,
My client wants to see material cosumption report cost center wise. We have maintained Repetetive manufacturing process. MFBF is tcode we use to post GI and GR with back flush .
Where do we assign cost center to the cost collecter and how do we get the material consumption report.
Can any one help me please....
B.S.Rao

Dear Rao,
Generally the bulk material's that are directly available at the work center are issued to the cost center using 201 movement
through T Code MB1A.
In REM scenario all the Goods issue happens at the time of backflushing through T Code MFBF,and a product cost collector will
be used as a cost collecting object for the same.
In my understanding there is no possibility of assinging or linking a PCC and a cost center.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Set Up Variable Layout for Account Assignment Objects
The travel expenses accounting dialog contains the option to record cost assignment specifications for the complete trip, additional destinations (stopovers), receipts and the kilometer/miles distribution.
The user is provided with two options for this purpose: The entry area Alternative Cost Assignment to Master Cost Center in the travel expenses dialog, or the Enhanced Cost Assignment function.
Travel Management offers five different coding blocks that you can use to control the cost assignments within Travel Expenses accounting.
In this IMG activity you define the screen layout for the account assignment objects - the selection and order of these objects. In addition you can specify the field characteristics for each of the account assignment objects.
You can make these settings in relation to a specific user or the organizational assignment of the employee.
To do this, copy the return value from the feature TRVCO as a variable key into the key of the fields with which you want to set up the coding block.
Note
The feature TRVCO is only evaluated during screen layout of a coding block if it is assigned to the corresponding function module in the view Screen modification for assignment data. This view can be accessed using the entry Check assignment of feature TRVCO to coding blocks in the selection screen for the IMG activity Set up variable layout for account assignment object
In the standard version feature TRVCO is assigned to function modules. You should not change the following assignments:
Coding Block for Function Module
Cost assignment specification: Complete Trip RP_TRAVEL_COBL_1700
Cost assignment specification: Receipts RP_TRAVEL_COBL_1701
Cost assignment specification: Destinations RP_TRAVEL_COBL_1702
Cost assignment specification: Miles/KMs Distrib. RP_TRAVEL_COBL_17
Activities
1. Check the assignment of feature TRVCO to the function modules for the coding blocks using the appropriate action in this activity.
2. You can create new entries as follows:
a) Choose the action Account assignment object: Cost assignment specification: <appropriate entry area> in this IMG activity.
b) In the variable key field, enter the required return value from the feature TRVCO.
c) Enter the name of the field needed in the Variable name field.
d) Specify the field attributes for the field.

Assets: Unable to post to the assigned Cost Center in Asset Master

When I do the Depreciation Run, the cost center that gets hit is the Cost Center specified on the Cost Element (associated with the Depreciation Expenses account).
Never does the Cost Center specified on the Asset Master gets picked.
In case I do not specify any Cost Center (Default) on the Cost Element, no depreciation documents gets posted and instead I get an error message Missing CO assignment
As I understand, the Cost Center mentioned on the Asset Master should be posted to (which is not happening in my case).
Any missing configurations in Asset Accounting or something not configured correctly in CO????

hi,
1) check the time interval of cost-centre
a) AS02 with your asset
b) KS02 with your cost centre

Change cost assignment (cost center) in confirmation with badi?

Dear experts,
for a certain request, we want to implement logic that will clear out the cost center when creating or saving the confirmation.
We have tried the DOC_CHANGE BADI but this does not seem to do the trick. following code:
LOOP AT acct_data into ls_acct_data.
    IF ls_acct_data-acc_cat EQ 'OR'.
      CLEAR ls_acct_data-cost_ctr.
    ENDIF.
    MODIFY acct_data from ls_acct_data.
ENDLOOP.
ET_ACC[] = acct_data
Is my code wrong, or should i use another badi?
Regards,
Tom

Hi,
I have tried the following but does not seem to change anything:
Loop at IT_ACC into ls_acct_data.
If ls_acct_data-acc_cat EQ 'OR'.
    CLEAR ls_acct_data-cost_ctr.
Endif.
MODIFY it_acc from ls_acct_data transporting acc_cat.
Endloop.
Also with the following method, it is not changing the account assignment. I am in doubt that this badi could actually change the account assignment on confirmation?
Loop at IT_ACC into ls_acct_data.
    If ls_acct_data-acc_cat EQ 'OR'.
      CLEAR ls_acct_data-cost_ctr.
      Append ls_acct_data TO lt_acc.
    Endif.
Endloop.
ET_ACC[] = lt_acc.
