Block Postings to specific account/profit center combinations

How do I set rules or controls to prohibit manual postings to specific account/profit center combinations? I want to emphasize that I am not not just interested in blocking postings to an account, it has to be the unique combination of account and profit center which is prohibited.
Thank you,
Mark Galla

Hi,
Use OB28...
Set the prerequisite as BKPF-Tcode : FB01...( any transaction used for manual posting)
and BSEG-BUKRS <> the company code
Then in the Check button
BSEG-PRCTR = prctr ( first create a set id using GS01 with this name there give all the profit center which you want to block.
Third is as usual give the message type as Error.
Thats it...
Hope this helps

MIRO-G/L account - profit center

Hello all,
we are on ECC 6.0 and during MIRO when posting to a material and simultaneously to a G/L account (Direct Posting to G/L Accounts being activated) when the Profit Center field is populated, once we press enter the Profit Center value just disappears.
I have been checking the OSS Notes and found nothing relevant to know.
Any help will be greatly appreaciated.

Hi Praveen,
your instructions are correct but the funny things is that in MIRO if we populate the segment as I mentioned in my previous postings the value entered in the field dissapears. If we enter the Profit Center then it is updated correctly.
Is there something that i miss here.Why since the field says Segment I should populate it with the Profit Center? Any ideas?
Thank you for all your help!

Substituting Cost of Goods Sold Account Profit Center

Hi
I am using Sales Order substitution to change the Profit Center according to Sales Org + Product Hierarchy + Customer Group + Acct Asst Grp. This perfectly replace the Profit Center in Sales Order. The Profit Center from Sales Order is perfectly flowing to Outbound Delivery.
While doing PGI, in accounting document, Cost of Goods Sold line item is not getting the profit center from outbound delivery. It post COGS line item with Material Master profit center. We want profit center of Cost of Goods Sold line item is same as Sales order / Outbound Delivery.
I checked SCN, everyone provided the solution of using FI Substitution to change the Profit Center of COGS line item.
Is it any other way it can be achieved? if FI Substitution is only the way, can anyone provide the sample code, so that it can be developed fast.
Thanks
Venkat Ramachandran

For those who may need an answer to this, our solution was the following:
1)       Created new types for SO, SO Item, Sched. Line, Delivery, Delivery Item, Billing type
2)       Created new Pricing procedure
3)       Created new movement type Y61/Y62 modeled after 601/602
4)       Mapped Y61/Y62 to account modifier ZAX.
5)       Mapped GBB/ZAX to the new account.
Benefits, they now have better view of the orders going inter-company. It is flexible enough to adjusting prices for intercompany separate from standard orders, even though for now it is a straight copy of cost. They are able to remove the sales/use tax, from the calculations. They are able to plan with these orders separated out. Plus, this will standardize their process for inter-company.
Hope this helps someone.
Cheers!

Incorrect postings due to wrong Profit Center assigned to WBS

Dear Experts,
My client has created a project where a wrong profit center was assigned to a particular WBS. As a result of which while booking revenue end users picked up WBS based on name and while booking cost it was booked based on Profit Center, which was suppose to be linked to some other WBS.
eg. WBS 'A' was suppose to have PC1, while WBS 'B' was suppose to have PC2. But by mistake vice verse happened.
So in this case cost for WBS 'A' was booked against revenue of WBS B.
This is giving wrong picture while analyzing profitability.
Can you suggest some means by which we can correct this picture?
Thanks and Regards,
Manish

Manish,
There is only way of JV posting, you post a single JV for all the line items at a time with cumulative amounts against each WBS element, else you have to reverse all the transactions of the each WBSE and then change the profit center and post the transactions which a very hectic job.

Praveen

Profit Center determination for Stock G/L accounts

Hello,
The scenario is as follows:
A single G/L account is defined in our system for Finished Goods. FI documents resulting from material movements are posted to this account in PCA, i.e. table GLPCA shows material document numbers in the reference document field along with the corresponding movement types for this account.
There are a large number of materials with Profit Center 10000 (Industry General) defined in the material master record. All postings to the G/L in question are currently being made against the Profit Center defined in material master. There are also two other Profit Centers defined in the system; 10001 (Industry Motors) and 10002 (Industry Others). The business requirement is that all materials are common to both segments, but the Profit Center should be determined from the sale, i.e. if a material is sold to an Industry Motors customer the Profit Center should be 10001, otherwise it should be 10002.
For the revenue G/L account which is hit at the time of posting of the invoice, a substitution has been configured that determines the appropriate Profit Center from the division specified in the invoice; there are two divisions for Motors and Others respectively. For the stock G/L however, all postings are made to Profit Center 10000 as defined in the material master record.
Since the stock G/L will show postings from all goods movements, including GR, initial entry, GI for delivery, etc., and all materials are common, it is clearly not possible to completely segregate all postings to 10001 and 10002. For example, GR will always be posted to 10000 (General) as it is not known whether this should be in 10001 or 10002 till the time of sale. However, for sales movement type (Goods Issue delivery) at least, postings shoud be made to the appropriate specific Profit Center. For the remaining postings, the business applies a calculated ratio to the acumulated balance.
For the stock G/L, is it possible to derive Profit Center for outward goods movements based on invoice? For example, 1000 USD worth of stock is posted to the G/L in PCA with movement type 101 and Profit Center 10000. 200 USD worth of stock is sold under Motors and 400 USD worth is sold under others. Entries in GLPCA should be:
G/L            Balance Profit Center     Movement Type
31000000   1000       10000              101
31000000   200         10001              601
31000000   400         10002              601
So from this it is easily possible to determine that 200 USD worth of stock has been sold under Motors, 400 USD worth under Others, and 400 USD worth of stock remains unsold.
A solution for this is required. If anyone can think of any other way to accomplish this as well, please share your suggestions. Thanks!
Regards,
Khan

to arrive the profit center at a time of Goods Movment, select the cost center for Industry Motor before to that do the settings in OKB9 for the Cost element a default Profit Center for Cost center.
Hope this helps u in resolve the issue.

Your response above (additional selection) I presume is for Dynamic selections. I do not need to go to Dynamic selections at all - Profit Center is available in basic selections itself. My question is specifically regarding the output of the report, which should be as above.

Issue with Postings-Profit center

Hello,
We have a issue with Spec. Purpose Ledger account.
There are 5 items in that account with 5 g/l accounts are updating. Out of 5, in 2 accounts profit center is updating wrongly.
When we check that one of them is updating tax value. The profit center is updating from defaulted profit center assigned to company code and that specific G/L account. This is because when the value of the profit center is blank from where it has to pick the profit center, then default profit center should come. So this case is happening.
Now I would like to know for tax values, from where the profit center will be picking.
Please reply if this information is not sufficient.
Best regards,
SASi

Hi,
To my information a Profit centre is mainly related to a u201Cdivision of productsu201D in Plant, in business, It is assign to in the Material Master in u201CSales General/Plantu201D Tab. So please go to u201CMM02u201D and check if the profit centre exists for that item/Material,
Also check with your FI people it is a core topic related to Special purpose ledgers.

Profit center clearing accounts line item display

Dear all,
I have implemented document splitting at profit center level.
The zero balance clearing account (profit center clearing account) is open item managed and also line item display tick is put. eg both ticks are active.
I am trying to see the line items in the account using fbl3n,fs10n etc but am not able to view the line items althought the balance of the account is visible in fs10n.
the message i get is 'no line item selected'.
Pl suggest some way through which i can see the line items of the profit center clearing account.
Regards,
Rishikesh

Dear Venkatesh
I am also facing same problem, I am using T Code FAGLL03 to display Line Items for Zero Balance Clearing A/c but I am not getting line item display instead it is giving following error.
=========================================================================
Account 141010, company code VALC is clearing account
Message no. MSITEM111
Diagnosis
You have stored account 141010 in company code VALC as a clearing account. At the same time, you use line item management with this account.
System Response
Error message issued because line item display cannot read data for an account in a ledger if line items exist partially in the entry view together with clearing items for which there are no line items. In such cases, only the data with line items would be selected.
Procedure
Check the Customizing settings or account control. Change the settings so that only automatic postings without line items can be made to the account, or select a different account as the clearing account.
=========================================================================
Please do suggest me.
Thanks in Advance

Default Profit Center for Retained Earnings Account

Hi,
We wish to default a profit center for our retained earnings account. Currently, the system carries forward P/L balance to Retained Earnings Account Profit Center wise.
Kindly advise on how we can default a particular PC for retained earnings account. Also in case it is possble, does the system balance the PC wise trial balance by changing balances in Inter PC Balancing account (Zero Balance Clearing)?
Thanks!

Dear,
You can default through 3KEH in classic GL and through FAGL3KEH in New GL
