Change of Profit Center in Cost Center

I'm trying to change Profit Center 2000 to 3000 in Cost Center Change Screen. We would like to effect the changes in the future from April 1, 2011.

Someone please advise.
Thanks,

HI May be you are assigning profit center belongs to different company code, so then accounting will not be in proper so its giving that error search the profit center to that company code and assign and then save.

  • 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.

    Dear Experts,
    User has posted document with wrong profit center
    For that we subjected that he can go to the profit center actual posting T.Code 9ke0 but with that he can only change the Profit center document with that there is no accounting side updating
    I have tried with Document Change Rules, Line Item for fields cost center and profit center  in that while configuring I did not get any error message,
    But in the document I am unable to changing the same fields cost center and profit center  
    Can any body please guide me to resolve the issue?
    Essentially I want to change the Accounting document fields cost center and profit center   
    Thanks in Advance,
    Wiswanath

    Hello,
    Once the documents are posted in FI module, the system doesn't allow anybody to change the cost objects (cost center, profit center, internal order). The only fields you can change through FB02 transaction are the Line item text (BSEG-SGTXT) and the assignment (BSEG-ZUONR).
    If you want to get a change to the cost object to be reflected from FI to CO, you should reverse the FI documents with wrong cost objects and post new documents with correct cost center, profit center.
    Hope it helps you.
    Cheers,
    Daniel.

  • 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

  • Change the address of the cost center

    Hi Gurus,
      I am trying to change the address of the cost Center master in that i need to change the Jurdiction code also . now it id showing display mode only. can any one suggest me regarding on this issue.
    Regards,
    Ramanjaneyulu

    Hello,
    You have posted transactions to this cost centre.
    I suppose you arr not using Vertex or another external tax system as any changes by the US government will automatically change the details of the cost centre.
    In KS02, menu oath edit-->analysis period.  Change the date from to the date that you want the changed jurisdiction code to begin from.  Make your changes and save.
    Further, test the changes in a sandpit or test system first, as a cost centre jurisdiction should not really change unless US boundaries change.

  • Assignment of Profit center in cost center

    Hello Friends,
    What is the significance of assignment of profit center in cost center ?  System does not allow me to post activity prices in KP26 without assignment of profit center to cost center. It gives error that
    "Profit center 1000/DUMMY_PCA does not exist for 01.04.2009"
    How to solve this error with out assignment of profit center in cost center?
    Waiting for reply!

    Profit Center is an Organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
    Hence its Assignemnt with Cost center should be there for proper assessment of Organisation.
    If  you do not assign a profit center, the SAP System transfers the data from the dummy profit center defined in configuration for the respective controlling area to Profit Center Accounting.
    Therefor proper cost center with Proft center assgined has to be used for Cost center / actvity type planning in KP26.

    Is there any way to change a node on a cost center group (KSH1) ? i also would like to change the description!
    Any tips?
    Thank you in advance..
    leandro.

    Click on the node and Click on the Wand Buttion  (Select:Shortcut F9)
    and there you can delete and change the place of the group. Dont think you can change text. For that you may have to create the node again.
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • Cost center/work cost center

    What is the difference between work cost cneter and cost center(cost center capture the cost via cost elements).but what abour work cost centers,

    Dear Madhu,
    COST CENTER INFORMATION:
    Cost Center (KS01 - Create, KS02 - Change, KS03 - Display)
    Definition of a Cost Center:
    Master data and Configuration settings found in Controlling...
    "An organizational unit within a controlling area that represents a defined location of cost incurrence."
    The definition can be based on:
    Functional requirements
    Allocation criteria
    Physical location
    Responsibility for costs
    WORK CENTER INFORMATION:
    The following is information on how to create a work center and use it. If you need further information simply hit F1 Help in the application to explain the use of the main fields.
    Work Center (CR01 - Create, CR02 - Change, CR03 - Display)
    Using the data maintained for a work center, you can
    - Determine which machines or people are to be used in the operations
    - Calculate costs, capacities and dates for the operations
    Transaction: OP42 - Allows you to Configure the default value for Work Center during the initial creation.
    After creating many work center in the Routing, the users might want to check what materials and components allocation have been updated with this work center.  You can used this program [Work Center in Routing - Search through all the routing for the material and component allocation used (|http://www.sap-basis-abap.com/abap008.htm]).
    The standard program transaction CA80, checks where the work center was used in the routing.  However, it did not list the components allocation for the work center.
    Pooled Capacity field - When a production order 1234567 has the capacity requirement on its work center Wxxxxx. It means it has the requirement on pooled capacity Pxxxxx.  If more than one work center shared this pooled capacity, the requirement (transaction CM01) will be shown on all the work center with the SAME shared pooled capacity.
    I hope this helps to clarify the purpose of the Cost Center  and Work Center and how they can be used.
    Kind Regards,
    Brendan

  • Derivation of Funds Center from cost center for Asset PR/PO in FM

    Hello Experts,
    We configured new FM area and relevant BCS settings. It is working fine except PR or PO for Account assignment category A.
    Issue: system is not able derive funds center from cost center in the asset master. cost center is not updated in EBKN table for Asset PR.
    we have maintained the following;
    1. Funds center is activated in Asset account assignments
    2. Maintained derivation rule with function module: FMDT_READ_MD_ASSET
    3. Derivation rule for cost center to funds center also maintained
    If maintain funds center manually in PR it is working fine and consuming budget also.
    Requirement: How derive funds center from cost center assigned in asset. I have verified all tickets raised in this forum, but nothing has answered my question.
    Request you to provide solution for above issue.
    Thanks in advance for support.
    Regards,
    Chalapathi

    Hi Venkata,
    You have two derivation rules, first related to Asset function module and second one is related to CC and FC combination.
    You need to maintain the function module derivation rule first then you need to maintain the derivation rule related to combination of CC and FC. Because first you need to derive CC from asset master and then you need to derive fund center with reference to this CC.
