Billible service in case (ISH) as a profitability analysis characteristic

We have implemented Case Costing Level 2 in order to analyze case costs
in CO-PA.
We wanted to define the billable service as a characteristic in COPA in
order to have the ability to get a P&L (profit and loss) for each
service and service group (according to the defined value fields in
COPA).
We have defined the case based order as real order with a settlement
rule to a profitability segment. Is it possible to distribute revenue
and case costs to PA between the different billable services in the
case?.
Thanks in advance,
Yael

Hi Ajay,
Thank you for the quick update.
The document is updated to COPA through OKB9 settings. The profitability segment is updated with fields like customer, product, company code, plant, sales area data, profit center, etc; however the sales order number is missing.
Could you please elaborate further how could FI substitution be implemented to call for the FM COPA_PROFITABILITY_SEGMENT through user exit? Are you recommending the substitution through GGB1? What could be the possible validation to call for the user exit to be implemented?
Regards,
Sandeep Kulkarni

Exchange Server 2013 POP3 Service on CAS cannot after Upgrade to SP1

Exchange Server 2013 POP3 Service on CAS cannot after Upgrade to SP1
When I manual start MSExchangepop3 Service on CAS It show "The Microsoft Exchange POP3 Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
In event log show POP3 EventID 1018 , 1019 , 1036
It said like this blinding already use (0.0.0.0)
The point is "IF I SET BINDING FOR 995 , MSEXCHANGE POP3 Service will automatic stop"
Does anyone face this issue please?
Thank you

You could check what (if anything) else is running on that port.
From a command prompt, type netstat -ano | find 995
This will give you the Process Identifier (PID) for the process that is running on port 995. Then you can open Task Manager, add PID as an additional column, and find out what that process is.
Hope that helps.

Profitability Analysis not generated in Contract billing Document

I have created the Billing document against the contract order but the Profitability Analysis is not getting generated. But any sale order related billing document is created; system automatically creates the Profitability Analysis.
Can you tell me where the problem is or have I missed any steps?
Regards,
Devendra

1) For a service material (DIEN), We are creating an Sales Order (VA01) and doing a order based billing (VF01). In the Sales Order we are giving the plant (no shipping point and storage location as it is a DIEN material).
Once we do the billing we are able to see the Profitability Analysis document.
2) Now we are using the same material we are creating a Contract (VA41) for a period of one year and doing a monthly billing. In this case we are using VF04 for doing the bills that are due.
We are getting two results in this:
a) If we give a Plant in the contract, the Profitability Analysis document is not getting generated at the time of billing.
b) If we do not give any plant, the Profitability Analysis document is getting generated at the time of billing.
Please note that we are using the same material, same pricing procedure in both the above cases 1) and 2). Only difference is that the source documents are different i.e., one is Sales Order and the other one is Contract.
In our copa valuation we have assigned the conditions to value field, no derivation rule assigned.

Activate Profitability analysis

Dear Gurus,
Whnever My SD member is creating the Excise Invoice in J1IIN, thn the message is coming as " Activate Profitability Analysis in Controlling Area". After activating the same the message is coming as " System failure during the locking of the GL account".
The Message no for Profitability analysis is KI144.
SATYA

Have you defined Excise GL code as a cost element in controlling and assigned to PA segment?
In case you do not want to activate COPA, remove the assignment to PA and assign default cost center in case you are not able to delete cost element (t code KA04).

Profitability Analysis for Project and Project Team

Hello Experts,
Need your ideas and expertise to the below business case, could be simple or complicated, please provide some insight.
the business case is like this. 2 specific project teams are available. there can be around 10 projects executed in a year. So in our PS we can have project team allocated to a project. workforce planning is done for the project for effective utilization, it is like 2 projects with 2 teams assigned. till now it is fine. the business calls for that 1 st team is assigned to another project only after closure of the assigned project.
Let us assume P1, P2,...P10 are the projects in a year. Assume T1, T2 are the teams available. Initially T1 is assigned to P1, T2 is assigned to P2.
Business confirms that T1 will be assigned to P3 only after completion of P1. This requirement is also straight. Assume that team T1 has executed 6 projects and team T2 has executed 4 projects.
The requirement is profitability analysis at project level i.e at P1, P2, ...P10 which is also pretty straight. Business requirement is also to have profitability analysis against each team i.e for T1 and T2. it is like each team has a project lead and team assigned under him. based on the expenses and revenue booked against the team, there will be performance evaluation of the team.( assume that P1, P3, P5, P6, P8,P9 are the projects executed by team T1, we need to have revenue and expenses of the said projects to be mapped to team T1 as well), so we have profitability analysis at team level.
Experts, require your advice on how to map the requirement. Is there any possibility to map projects to team rather assigning team to a project. please advice. provide some insight on how do we map the scenario.
Regards,
Murthy

Hello Murthy,
In SAP you carry out Month end closing activities. In order to carry out this activity, you post all period based data on the project. Subsequently data relevant for Profitability analysis can be determined for the given period and then this data can be settled to COPA.
This data can be evaluated in the project information system or in Profitability analysis.
You can check report KE30 for Profitability Analysis.
Refer SAP help for more details

Costs of the product calculation lack in the profitability analysis

Hello there,
A group of students and I are currently working on a SAP project which is about to implement a full cost accounting in the SAP system (ERP). At first we used a case study reading (Friedl,Hilz,Pedell), some important components for calculating the products like u201Ccosting sheetu201D, u201Ccost component structureu201D and u201Ccosting variantu201D do exist already.
For our project we had to insert an additional primary cost center. For that reason we also added new components (the above given ones). After that the costs for our products could be calculated in the right way. We also booked supplies and stated the quantity of sales. Our problem is that the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) does not show any costs of our cost centers (material input, manufacturing costs, overhead costs) only the earnings. We did not add any u201Cattributesu201D, u201Cderivation rulesu201D or u201Cvalue fieldsu201D but fulfilled all requirements in the Customizing menu (u201CAssign costing key to productu201D, u201CAssign costing key to productu201D, u201CAssign value fields for cost component structureu201D).
The first time when we used the case study reading and therefore another company code everything worked fine. We think that the problem might be that the costing key is not attached to the products.
Thank you for any help and suggestions,
Kind regards!

In the same area as where you assign the costing key to the product, there is also an entry where you need to define the costing key. You don'tr mention that you have done that.
In the user menu for Profitability Analysis, there are also a lot of tcodes that will help you investigate the flows of values and derivation of characteristics. They are very helpful in most cases.

Incorrect material group derivation for Profitability Analysis doucment

Hi Gurus,
I found out some of the Profitability Analysis doucment generated with wrong material group assigned. Material group was derived from Product number, in my case it is defined as "table lookup" step type as below.
Source fields for table lookup:
MARA-MATNR = COPA-ARTNR
Assignement of Table fields to target fields:
MARA-MATKL = COPA-MATKL
Any idea of why this could be happen? Will it be due to my program error?
Pls advise asap.
Thanks & regards,
LOI

check KEQ3. maybe it is defined as "not used"

Order value fields by field label in the profitability analysis document

Hello,
I am displaying a profitability analysis document and I want to order the value fields by their technical name (VV001, VV002, VV003...) instead of in alphabetical order (the system orders them by the field label).
Is it possible?
Thank you very much
Bea

Hello,
Check in KE4M whether sd condition type FKLMG is mapped corresponding value field in COPA.As you are getting the value for other company codes, this setting should be there.
You can also try checking simulation of billing document transfer through KE4ST. Check the details analysis
thanks

Field catalog in Profitability Analysis

Hi,
In profitability analysis, if we want to use a particular characteristic or value field, then they should be maintained in field catalog.
Could anyone please explain me where we will define this field catalog.
Thanks
Chandra

You need to create the Characteristics and/or Value Fields using transaciton KEA5 / KEA6
Once this is done, assign these to the Operating Concern using transaction KEA0
In this transaction, enter the Operating Concern you need to modify, and then enter the Data Structure in the Data Structure tab. Assign the Characteristics / VFs in this screen (click on the respective tab to access the assignment). Once done, remember to generate the Operating Concern.
If you exit the maintenance screen on saving, the system normally prompts you to Generate the Op Co. Once this is generated, you can use these in your config./ analysis.
Cheers.

COPA Values in the Profitability analysis for a credit memo request

Hi All,
When I am trying to create an Invoice document for a Credit Memo request having a Configurable material , in the accounting document profitable analysis Profit Center view fields are not getting updated.
If we do the same thing for a reference material profit center view fields are getting updated properly.
What is the problem with the Configurable material.
Thanks in advance,
RajaMahi

I would start fresh with a new sales order. When you create with reference both the return delivery and credit memo are created with reference to the return sales order. Here is an example document flow to clarify:
Document                                      Date               Qty/value   UoM/Cur   Overall proc. status
                                                                                Return 60000077 / 10                          08/25/05               10.000 EA      Completed

Exchange Rate in Profitability Analysis Document

How is the exchange rate populated in profitability analysis document?
We have couple of scenarios:
Scenario 1: Credit memo request created without any reference and credit memo is created successfully. Exchange rate populated in the profitability analysis document is the exchange rate which applicable to current date.
Scenario 2: Credit memo request created with reference to customer invoice document and credit memo is created successfully. Exchange rate populated in the profitability analysis document is the exchange rate which applicable to the past date. We dont know how the system picked the exchange rate which does not applicable to the current date.
Any poiniters to this issue?

HI,

Account Based Profitability Analysis

Hi,
I am mapping characteristic fields of account based profitability analysis. I have been given fields such as KMLAND to map into BI fields.My question is how do i map the key figures. What fields in account based profitability analysis are key figures, are they value fields? Do i need a list field names of value fields to map it into BI.Some one mentioned something about cost elements.
Thanks
TJ

Hello Tee Jay,
Cost Element is a key field in ECC. That means its char. in BW. What are the infoobjects that you have in your DSO or cube n BI.
Do you have 0COSTELMNT or 0GL_ACCOUNT? If so, then you map Cost element field from SAP to one of the above char. in BW.
By Revenue, do you mean a value field in R/3? If so, it will have to be mapped to key figure in BI.
Hope that helps.
