Profit Center Report issue

Dear Experts,
We have activated NEW GL Functionality and Classical PCA is switched off (i.e. no dummy pc is created)
and client's Profit Center report requirement is as following.
Under Profit Center,client wants to view the costs -Cost elements wise (BOTH THE REVENUE & COSTS) and Cost Center wise.
We have searched all the standard reports,but there is no such report to meet the client's requirement.
So we have decided to go with the development.Can any body share the table name ,by which we can develop a report to meet the client requirement.
Note that Table :COEP is tried ,but cost center field is not available in this table .
Regards
Su

Hi
You should use the library 0FS or 0FL to write your own report as per the format required. Standard Reports will not have the layout required. The link below will guide you on the steps to write a report in Report Painter. You need to down load the PPT

Business area & profit center

Thanks & Regards
krishna.

Hi,
Profit center and business are org units and both are used for similar purposes.
Business area is gared on external accounting where as profit centers are used for internal accounting purposes
Business Area
Based on the above we can prepare Balance sheet and profit
centre for separate product segment, geographical segment
etc. In India for certain companies it is the external
reporting.
Profit Centre
Based on the above responsble profit centre derive the
profit (only profit) (revenue minus expenses). Internal
reporting
Thanks

Impact Analysis: Business Area, Profit Center changed for Sales Order type

Hi All,
Can you please let me know the impact of changing the Business Area and Profit Center for Sales Order Document types.
Scenario:
Let's say that sales document type ZOR has been used for sometime. On this document x number of sales orders have been raised, delivered and invoiced over the years.
Now, if you change the Business Area and Profit Center what would be the business impact.
thanks,

Hi,
First of all itu2019s not a good business practice to change the Business area and Profit Centre.
However if at all l you change the Business area and Profit centre the following is the impact::
Business Area: effects the sales order in accounts assignment at Header level.
Profit centre: effects the accounting part at Item level
Overall in MIS reporting w.r.t Profit and Business Analysis in Finance will be affected.
Thanks and regards

NEW GL profit center report in Controlling area currency

Hi all,
Could anybody suggest me,
how do we have the New GL profit center report in controlling area currency.
or else if any possibility for report painter report please suggest.
Thanks
kishore

Hi Kishore
New GL PCA values are stored in FAGLFLEX* tables.
These are FI tabls and they store values in 1st 2nd and 3rd currency of FI. If your control area current is same as anyof these, you can access report in that currency
Else, you can do the conversion inside your report using a static exchange rate

Profit Center Reports / drill down to assigned internal orders

Hello guys,
our company does project business. Our project landscape has been implemented in SAP using a profit-center-structure for reporting purpose and internal orders for every project.
The internal orders (projects) are assigned to a profit center belonging to the conducting profit-center-group (responsible department).
Question 1:
Further development of Profit CenterReport S_ALR_87013340 allowing for a drill down from the profit centers to the actual projects that have been assigned to that profit centers.
Currently (standard report) each profit center can only be watched in a cumulated way. Since many projects can be assigned to one profit center a drill down to the actual project is required.
Question 2:
Currently the desired report Profit Center Report S_ALR_87013340 shows the balance. It is desired to see only the cost incurred on the projects, not the settlement. The report should only show pre-selected cost elements. How can we exclude certain cost elements?
Could you please give us some hints how to handle our issues?
Regards

Hi,

A1: you can created cost elements(account group) with selected cost elements and use same group in report.
Or
A2:enter only selected cost elements in report P&L account group in multiple selection.

We have run 1KE0 to update the missing value by deleting the existing values, so few profit center report is corrected but many other profit center report has gone wrong.
Could you please guide me to correct the values. Business requires to see the same value in cost and profit center. Note; We have created cost and profit centers the same code and assigned to each other.
Thanks,

Profit center report does not show selection criteria

Hi,
The SAP Business One software misses a functionality :
When creating a financial report, you can enter surtain selection criteria in order to shift the data, and in order to get only the relevant data. This is possible in all reports. Also, in the result of all reports, those selection criteria are shown. In that case you actually know what the data is all about.
This is not the case with the profit center report. When you run the report with e.g a date selection, these dates are not printed on the actual report. When a second person views the report, he/she has no clue as to what the data consists of, they are unaware of the selection criteria.
The only solution is to export this to excel, or run Chrystal reports. But this should be entered into the standard report !!
Hopefully, you can help me out.
Kind regards,

Hi
If you see the screen shot I attached, it has the text "(new)" against the Folder name...
All new gl reports are under such a folder to differentiate... You cant deactivate any reports from the Standard Menu... You can just control it by authrization....
You can also ask your BASIS guy to display only the authorized trans on the user screen so that they are not able to see the std set of transactions

hi Kyle,
thanks for the effort, but it wasn't the thing i asked for ...
what i would like to find out is:
if CO area settings are set w/o profit centers, why the system still demands profit center assignment with cost center master data (ie.)
well, i can always turn off the message, but this isn't the solution i want to use ...
i will rather open one PC (along with dummy, of course) even though those are not used for the customer ... although, this will not solve statistical posting to cc with cost element category 11 ...

How do we add more fields to the existing profit center reports

Hello everybody,
I need help in profit center reporting. The issue is my client is able to draw profit center reports, however they want to extend this i.e, they wish to get the reports of profitability for each product line, Debtors, Creditors, other current assets, other current liabilities, stock for each profit center. Do I follow, segment reporting as given in help.sap.com (defining report painter etc), or is there any other way to go about. And the fact is that I've not worked on report painter, in a way I can say that i've not worked much in controlling.
THIS IS VERY URGENT. INSIGHTS INTO THIS WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECITED.
Regards,
Soujanya

Hi Nelson,
If you are only adding a single row or column; or need to add one in the middle of your sheet dont forget you can get to the insert menu by clicking on the side/top bars. A second tap on the right arrow gets you here:
Insert will add your row (or column)
