Hello,
I need to get the hierarchy from R/3 to BW. Can someone send me a link or mention steps i need to do to bring profit center and cost center hiearchy from R3 to BW.
Thanks
Laura.

As you would for any other infoobject
Activate the business content hierarchy datasources on R3 for cost centre and profit centre
Go into BW - replicate the metadata
Then just connect via transformations or transfer rules the datasources to yoru infosources or master data objects
Create an infopackage per hierarchy!!!!! - press the button available hirachies from OLTP - click the one you want on the left - fire it off
Then repeat new infopackages for all hierachies

RE - Change profit center and cost center after LO activated

Hi ppl, One question. Is there any harm if we change the profit center and cost center of the business entity, building, rental unit only after the lease out has been activated?

No need to change the cost center, as you want to have valid from date as 01.10.2010.
Having profit center before that date is not an issue and does not have any negative impact.

Functionality of Profit Center and Cost Center

Hi,
I am unable to understand the functionality of Profit center and cost center, I know that cost center represents area within an organization for which you will like to see the expenses for a particular time period. for example in an organisation we have three cos centers Accounts, HR and Admin. whenever you post an accounting document in FI you will specify the cost center to which the expense relates. but in some cases when you post an expense and give the relative cost center the profit center is also driven by the system. why is this behavior? i mean i have posted an expense not an income then why is system driving the profit center as well?
Profit centers are used if you want to see the profit of different area of your organisation. in what kind of postings we use profit center? and if we could use profit center to draw income and loss for a specific area why do we need segment reporting? and what is the difference between Segment and Business area. what i understood from their definition is that they are both same and use for same purpose.
I am totally lost in these concepts. please some one help me out with an example. i am stuck at this point. some one please clarify my concept of Profit Center, Cost Center, Segments and business area please.

Hi,
Cost center & Profit Center are organizational units within the enterprise structure , created for better internal control.
As the name suggests Cost Center is the lowest level of the organizational unit representing a defined location of cost incurrence or otherwise to which you can meaningfully assign the cost(both direct & Indirect).
Profit Center is an organizational unit in accounting ,where management would require to see the profitability & fix the responsibility. It may be each plant/division of the company .
If you consider the Plant is the Profit center, you can take the various deptts in the Plant as cost centers. you can draw a balance sheet & profit & loss account statement at profit center level but this will be for your internal use.From this you can know the ROI on particular area. Profit centers are assigned inside the cost center so when you update cost center, profit centers are updated automatically.
Where as Segments are used for legal reporting of your accounting standard as per IFRS. Both Business Area & Segments are more or less same with some technical difference.
Business area is a free organizational unit. It can be derived through cost center or can be entered manually.
But segment is a dependent organizational unit. It is defined & attached inside the profit center master data. It can’t be entered manually.
SAP suggest to use the Segment concept.
Thanks & regards

Cost Center and Cost Element Hierarchy and Actual Cost Center

In Bex - Right now I am displaying Cost Center and Cost Element hierarchy with 12 months of data. I want to display the actual Cost center number next to cost element hierarchy - Can I display in Bex?
Tried to with Structure creating formula variable for Cost Center using replacement path - didn't work. Can you please suggest me how i can achieve this?
The format should be
CostCenter H1 CostElement H1 CostCenter Jan Feb ...
Thanks in advance and appreciate for any help...

Let me explain it clearly and hope it is clear now...
Designed the report as like this - Cost Center Hierarchy by Cost Element Hierarchy for 12 months of data. But Business agian search in R/3 for actual cost center numbers based on above two hierarchy nodes.
I am trying to achieve this Bex instead of going back to R/3 - so that they can understand how the dollar amount is summed up on which major cost centers.
If I remove the hierarchy on Cost Center - it will display all the cost centers. They want to see the Cost center numbers based on CC and CE hierarchy node so that you are displaying only those cost centers. That's the reason I am trying to design the report with CC Hier, CE hier, Cost Center number and 12 months of data.
In my data model - have only one Cost Center, if i can create another ZCOSTCENTER same as 0COSTCENTER - May be I can achieve this. still looking for options with out changing the design.

What is Budjet, Profit, Work and Cost center means?

Hi Guys,
Can u explain Budjet center, Profit center, Work center and Cost center? Also if i miss any other center like these!
What is the functionality of each in business point of view?
If possible with an example:-)
Thanks,
Vinod.

Hi.
Please use a search enginge before aksing here. BTW: If you use a search engine perhaps it is advisable to write 'budget' instead of budjet.
And before I forget this I would like to point out that your question is not related to ABAP. Therefore this forum is not the right place to ask it anyway...
Thread will be locked.

CO, which table decribes "cost center" and "cost center group"?

Hello experts,
now I have the transaction KP06. Maybe through customizing the user has built a "cost center group" for some "cost center".
In which table can I find out the relationship between the "cost center" and "cost center group" ?
Thanks.

Thanks a lot

Profit center and cost center

hi,
why p&l reve and exp account both also appear in both center?
what is the difference for these 2 center because both revenue and expenses account also landed in both center.
thanks

Hi,
Normally all expenses are pooled to cost centres and revenues to profit centres.
You are mentioning about VF03 - in case of a normal sales order there is selling price involved which is a revenue and hence the assignment to a profit centre. In the case of stock transfer ( intra company sales order) the value is based on cost of goods sold . When there is cost of goods sold the assignment needs to be done to a cost centre.
Thanks

Query Cost Center and Cost Element Hierarchy

here is the problem.
We are trying to build a query that does the following.
Its a CCA query.
We have Costcenter in the Filter area with a Hierarchy assigned and a hierarchy node variable attached.
We run the report and its looks good and the user cannot drill down because nothing is in the "rows" area. Its perfect.
Now the user has said that within that Costcenter Hierarchy we only want to see a total number based on the CostElement Hierarachy assigned. Different CostElement Hierarchys are valid for different times of the budget.
I have created a Hierarchy variable and attached it to the CostElement.
Here is The issue ****
If I drop the Costelement in the "rows"area it prompts for the Hierarchy name , filters Costcenter properly and provides the extact number. Problem is the user can now drill down and that is not allowed becuase we are going to have 3 summary totals with a "grand total" at the bottom.
So if I put the CostElement in the Filter area it now does not filter the CostCenter and I get the wrong number.
Is there a way to prevent drill down or some how force the CostCenter to be filtered by CostElement also.
Thanks for any help
Richard

Hi Richard,
Not sure if this will help as I have not tried it out, but you can try by setting the display property of Cost Element to No Display, when it is in the Rows area. This can be done by Cost Element > Right Click > Display As > No Display.
Hope this helps...

Hi Friends,
Is it possible to get a report from Sap, the list of PC and CC where there are no transactions in last 3 months?
Regards,
Raji
Moderator: Please, search SDN

Hi
There is no such ready made report
however, you can se KE5Z for PC and KSB1 for CC... Specify a date range of last 3 months and execute.....
If you have 100 CC and suppose you get output for 95 CCs in KSB1 - The balance 5 CCs will be the one you wish.... You can do an excel V lookup to get this info...

P&L by Profit Center Wise and COst Center wise

Hi All,
Profit Center Reporting u2013 I need a P&L by Profit Center. Unfortunately in SAP, there is no way to u201Cmarryu201D the profit center and cost center accounting into a single report that is filtered by PC/CC.   Example: I need to see the P&L for my Orlando region (Profit Center and Cost Center Range = 5450 to 5459). The report should return exactly what is returned when I run a company-wide P&L through standard report: S_ALR_87012284.
In fact, if I could simply filter the standard report in SAP there would be no problem, but there is no way to do that successfully u2013 the filters inhibit the correct results. Also, the standard profit center reports are only provided at the line level, so the report is so ugly it cannot be evaluated like a simple P&L whereas S_ALR_87012284 draws upon a u201Cdesignu201D called Financial Statement Version (which I have manipulated to be what I need).
Thanks,
Madhu

Hi, Go to tcode KDH1 and maintain your account group (like 127) as following format. I am 100% sure this will be result as per your wish. Execute report S_ALR_87013340 give Profit Center and Group as you created.
127     Profit After Taxation
     129     Provision for Taxation
          201     Provision for taxation
     128     Profit Before Taxation
          130     Operating Profit
               210     Gross Profit
                    310     Sales
                         400     External Sales
                         711001     Whole Sale
                         711002     Retail
                         711003     Direct
