Balance sheet and profit center

Dear Forum,
1) Not all balance sheet require profit center. correct? Only vendor, customer, material, asset only?
2) Why vendor also require profit center?
3) May I know why balance sheet items require profit center? Normally p&l items with profit center which deriving from cost center.
Need advice.
Thanks

Hi dear,
Earlier SAP was using business area. But it was not able to derive correct balance sheet.
So to resolve this new gl is implemented. It has a unique feature of Balancing GL. Here when the debit and credit line items has different profit center, it creates a additional line items with apposite effect to profit center. So u r profit center wise balance sheet always tally.
Basically all expenses are related to cost and hence they are recorded in cost center. If you ask me before coming to sap I use to use profit center to group cost center for internal reporting. But sap derives profit center balance sheet where expense comes from cost center to profit center and balance sheet accounts are assigned to profit center.

Balance Sheet by Profit Center

Hi Gurus,
Just a clarification for the profit center balance sheet. Let say for example I purchase an item from vendor A for the profit center A. The profit center is then inherited from the expense line item.
Debit    Expense      900                    Profit Center A
Debit    Input tax       100                    Profit Center A
Credit      Vendor A 1000                   Profit Center A
Now, before payment they realized that a portion of 100 should be for Profit Center B. I did a repost of line item, thus creating financial entry also to transfer the Profit Center A to Profit Center B. But this is only for the expense account.
My question is, is there a way to allocate also the portion of 100 for the Vendor and tax line item from Profit Center A to B?
If this is not met, then how can we actually generate balance sheet by profit center.
Thank you.

Hi
You can get the balance sheet as well by Profit Center.. New GL's document splitting functionality is very much equipped to provide that
Once you activate it, and specify pr ctr as the doc splitting characteristic, no document will be posted without Profit center populated in the line items.. However, this is possible only for ECC Version of SAP (5.0 or above)
If you are using Classical PCA, then you have to execute transactions like 1KE* at period end to update Pr Ctr in the balance sheet line items
Personally, I appreciate the New GL functionality of Profit center and doc splitting over Classical PCA

Regards
Shaun

Hi,
The best option to get balance sheet on profit center level in ECC6.0 is S_PL0_86000028 - FINANCIAL STATEMENT ACTUAL/ACTUAL COMPARISION.
Before getting this report you must make the new gl settings by making profit center as mandatory field, and activating the neg gl functionality.

** Balance sheet at Profit center with Inventory valuation at CoCd level **

Scenario:
Inventory valuation is at CoCd level. Moving Average costing.
There are 2 plants in CoCd 3000.
1.     I created material 1234 in plant P1 (profit ctr P1) & in plant P2 (profit ctr P2)
2.     Then, I received a PO - $1000 (100 qty @ $10) in plant P1 & $1100 (100 qty @ $11) in plant P2
3.     So the Moving average at CoCd is $10.50
4.     I created a Sales order to ship out 100 qty from plant P1. The PGI posted at moving average at CoCd level i.e.
        Dr COGS $1050
        Cr Inventory $1050
5.     Now, Inventory GL account value becomes -ve 50 at plant P1
6.     MB52 looks wrong as below. It doesnu2019t show -50 in P1 & 1100 in P2
Question:
Is there any standard way to accomplish Balance sheets at Profit center with Inventory valuation at CoCd level?
- We can do custom development to distribute Inventory balance on profit centers upon receipts or Invoice receipts (i.e. anything that updates the Moving Avg at CoCd) eg in step 2, when $1100 (100 qty @ $11) in plant P2 is received, then post +500 to inventory in P1 & -500 in P2, to make both P1 & P2 at 1050.
However, this would be huge effort on Development, Testing & ongoing maintenance.
- Another custom way would be to post to Profit centers a periodic entry to correct Inventory balance to (Qty on hand x Moving Avg at CoCd)
Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Hi,
I don't think so it's happen at valuation at Company code level.
Inventory Valuation always at plant level only not at Profit center and company code level.
In your case 2 Plants and 2 Profit centers. There is no chance to different the value at Profit center . Check once in Dev. server with example.

Balance sheet at profit center level

hi
client requirement is balance sheet at profit center level
we are useing TC: S_ALR_87013340
In this TC, In balance sheet system show the expenses GL A/c's.
in Company code level balance sheet it is show right GL A/c's
but profit center wise it show the wrong GL A/c's
Note: we are not active the document spliting & segment for existing system.
thank you

Hi,
Then it will not work as document splitting will split document on the basis of profit center or segment & corresponding debit & credit is posted to zero balance account.If you have not activated document splitting you can not have balance tallied at profit center or segment level so it will not matched .
System will not show financial statements on profit center or segment basis ,if document splitting is not active.

Profit Center wise balance sheet and Profit and Loss account

Hi Experts,
I will explain my scenario
The is cleint having Head Office for handling procurement of goods for all branches(8) and the physical delivery happens for goods at the requested branch and GR and IR also makin at the branch level.
And we are treated each branch as profit center apart from HO(profit center).But the vendor payment should be happen from HO(prfoit center) so and they are not using automatic payment programme.
My question is
1.While doing the vendor (Branch)payment from Cash/Bank GL (HO) how the balances will be tallied ?
2.If I am using the document splitting and zero balance document clearing will it tally at the profit center level ?
3.At the period end if I will do the 1KEK T Code to transfer the payables to the profit center which profit center system will take for posting ?
Please advice me in this and I will give good points with correct answer.

2.If I am using the document splitting and zero balance document clearing will it tally at the profit center level ?

I hope i answered all your questions.
Please feel free to get in touch with me if you need futher clarifications

Balance Sheet in Profit Center

Hello All,
How can you generate balance sheets for Profit Centers when the profit centers are linked to the sales order? so that whenever there is a sales order generated, the line items are all assigned to the profit centers.
Thanks, Please respond immediately.

Hi,
You can use transaction code:
S_ALR_87013345 - Profit Centers: Customers (Transferred Periodically)
S_ALR_87013346 - Profit Centers: Vendors (Transferred Periodically)
S_ALR_87013347 - Profit Centers: Assets (Transferred Periodically)
S_ALR_87013348 - Profit Centers: Materials (Transferred Periodically)
If you want to take balance sheet for over all profit center then use program :RFBILA10 and in selection give Financial statement version and ledger of profit center which is 8A.

Balance sheet using profit center

My client require balance sheet using profit centers... I will activate document splitting which should be able to provide the same. The other requirement is that they have profit center division wise eg. manufacturing, refurbishment, etc
How will profits centers ensure the balance sheet balances down to zero? since historical data and postings to accounts such as share capital would not have profit center assigned?
Thanks

Dear,
For liabilities like Equity, debenture shuold be distributed equally to all profit centers since it does not ensures that raised funds will be deployed for specific profit centers. Ask your business process owner how to distribute those amounts.
Document spitting will bring you the financial statements based on Profit Centers. Use Tcodes...

Balance sheet and cost center

Hi,
I need to seek clarification on this.
What baffle me is that, in FB01, if enter balance sheet account, cost center field also available. Why need to have cost center for balance sheet account? Can have few business example why need to have cost center for balance sheet account?
Thanks

Generally you do not need to populate cost center for balance sheet accounts but there is only one exception in case of Fixed Assets. There is a cost element category 90 which gives you the privilege to fill in cost center for the Asset accounts provided you use this GL in Fixed Asset configuration as account assignemnt. I do not know if this is the case in your client. For all other scenarios you can not even key in the cost center to balance sheet accounts because B/S accounts are not created as cost elements.
Follow options provided by fellow members related to field status variant and posting key settings.
Hope this helps
