Change receiver to Profitability segment in PCA assesment (transacion 3KE1)

I would like to allocate revenue from profit center accounting to profitabilty analysis.
Is it posible to change the receiver in the cycle to PA instead of profit center.
How should I do it.?
Thank u,

Hi,
I do not think this is possible. Postings to profit centers are always statistical whereas posting to PA segments are always real. So such a requirement may not be feasible. This requirement also does not make sense because there could be postings where the real object has been a PA segment and profit center has been statistical. If you allocate again from profit center to COPA then you will get double postings in COPA.
Even from a business point of view this makes no sense.

Profitability Segment Required during depreciation run

Hi,
I'm encountering an error during depreciation run since we set the fields selection for depreciation accounts to require for profitability segment. The reason we require for profitability segment is in order for all postings to generate COPA document.
Is there other way to transfer depreciation postings to COPA? We couldn't generate COPA documents for these postings right now.
Please guide.
Thanks.

Hi,
Generally depreciation expenses are assigned to the cost center. Configurations are maintained in ACSET tcode... Here no option to maintain COPA Segment as cost object.
On first hand, u will post depreciation to the cost center and then as I said earlier u do the cost center-copa assessment.
When u create the copa assessment cycle, u should be clear on which basis(Receiving tracing Value field i.e. either based on sales value, or based on someother value field) u want to assess the depreciation to the selected characteristics say..comapny code, cost center, plant.
Ofcourse, prerequisites is to have assessment cost element and Transfer structure.
U need to see the receivers the moment u click "Receiver Weighting Factor" Tab in u r cycle-segment defintion. If u dont get any receivers, try changing u r selection in the earlier tabs. Once u get the values here, it will surely create copa document.

Profitability Segment while releasing invoice to Accounting

Hi,
I am configuring a scenario in which a debit memo request and a corresponding debit memo will be created. Users want to put in a WBS element at the line item level of the debit memo request (which is fine). Business gave me a GL account in which the profitability segment is a required entry. Now, when I try to release the invoice to accounting, I get an error saying "Field Prof.Segmt is a required field for G/L account" (Msg Number F5808). I know that by changing the field status group on the GL account, i can make it post, but that is not the point. I want to know
a. Why system is unable to determine the profitability segment (i entered GL account in OKB9 and checked auto determination of profitability segment)
b. Is it because I am using the WBS element and trying to post to both FI and CO (because, when i use WBS in sales order, during account determination, system looks for KOFK condition type to determine the GL account) and i am not supposed to do that? If i do not use a WBS, then, the posting happens (using KOFI) and the profitability segment is also determined.)
Please let me know if you need more information.
Your help is most appreciated.
Regards,
Mukund S

We closed this issue by changing the field status group for the GL account. Though this is not the perfect answer, we had to do it for the business need.

Problem with profitability segment derivation while posting sales order

Hello,
We have the issue of profitability segment being not derived when the sales order is changed using BAPI 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'. Subsequent to calling this BAPI we execute a BDC - to derive the profitability segment - which runs well in the foreground but fails in the background. Immediate help in this regards would be of immense help.
I have searched the forum but could not locate anything useful. There is this thread (Re: BDC for profitability segment VA02 (sales order)) citing the same problem but without answers.
Kind Regards,
Indu Shekar

Probability Segment is maintained but Profitability Segment is still grayed out.
The only way i was able to move things to COPA was to do a project Settlement from
WBS element to Profitability Segment (PSA).
But does anyone know if we can move things to COPA during Sales Order (specifically for a project-based Sales Order)?
Thanks.

Incompletion log Profitability Segment at item level in the Sales Order

Hello Sapians,
We recently activated the "Sales Order value flow to COPA". When we create the Sales Orders the Profitability segment for the item is getting picked up automatically and have no issue in saving the Sales Order.
But when we edit the Sales Order and then try to save it, Sales Order has incompletion log which is leading to Profitability segment in the item level.
When I click the little box in Sales Order Item > Account Assignment tab> Profitability Segment forward arrow--> "continue" or "derivation" in the populated screen, then the Forward arrow in the profitability segment is deriving the characteristics, then system lets us to save the Sales order with out any incompletion log.
I checked the OSS notes 114520, in this OSS note, my sitiuation is exactly first point but could not get any clue how to resolve automatically.
Why it is happening only when we edit the Sales Order? How to update bulk of Sales Order automatically?
Any inputs?
Thank you.

Hi
Since you have activated the Sales order flow to COPA, any change in the sales order triggers a Prof Segment redetermination.... Thats why you are able to save it once you redetermine the Prof Segment....
Ideally, if no Chars like Plant/Org Elements/etc are changed - It need not trigger the Prof Segment redetermination...
Refer Note 729381 - When is a profitability segment supposed to be determined?.... With ref to this note, raise an OSS msg to SAP and check if it is possible to avoid the redetermination of PSG as long as none of the relevant chars are changed in the sales order....
There is a similar issue in MTO where by, even if you change the Header text of sales order, it triggers the Sales order cost estimate.... SAP provided a note to stop this... Note 1548608 & 1260868.... Your case is similar to this.... Raise an OSS to SAP and ask them if they can provide such a note for your case.... I feel, it should be possible for SAP to give this!

EDI Vendor posting (INVOIC01) to account assign Profitability segment

Hello Experts,
Have anyone used INVOIC01 (EDI vendor) Idoc type to post to a Profitability segment in a InterCompany sales scenario? If yes, could someone guide me how to achieve this? I see that OBCC transaction has Profitability segment field, but I am not sure how to use it.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your time.

Thanks Waman for the SAP notes.
In fact, I have looked at those notes, already. We cannot change to INVOIC02 Idoc type.
I wonder, why SAP does not offer the functionality to update Profitability segment on the EDI Vendor posting. Transaction OBCC has Profitability segment, but giving a fixed PSEG will not meet any business requirement! EDI enhancement FEDI0001 has only EDI-FIELDS and not the IDoc segment details. There is nothing much one can do with just the EDI-FIELDS.
Have you used FEDI0001 enhancement for PSEG determination? Looks like all that one can do with FEDI0001 is move the OBCC configuration values to Coding block.
Thanks for your time.

How to make profitability segment pushbutton visible in FB50 transaction

Hi All ,
I want to make profitability segment pushbutton visible in FB50 transaction. I tried to change a transaction variant which is assigned for this transaction code. It was a user created Z transaction variant and i unchecked the invisible checkbox in SHD0 transaction and saved it.But still in FB50 i am unable to see it. Can anyone tell me why it is still invisible though i unchecked the invisible checkbox . Do i need to reassign the transaction variant again to FB50. I didnt do it because it is already assigned and i had just modified.

Hi,
In SPRO there is no Field selection for QA. If you want to maintain QA based MPN( get the material number relevant to MPN). Press F4 and select the search criteria search by MPN, you will get the material relevant to that MPN.

Required a customer field(located in the profitability segment box) as mand

our client is requested that the customer field (located in the Profitability Segment box) be a mandatory field for GL accounts which are getting posted directly from FI. This field is needed so that proper reporting can be generated for bad debt and product liability claims. Currently this field is not a mandatory when making journal entries, so there were some postings happened with out customer field. Due to this we are unable to extract exact values in CO-PA reports . Please can some one help me on this and explain the process and settings for this??
Thanks in advance.

Hi Eli,
I have posted note to SAP and i got the below reply from them.
Get this functionality you should change
the coding of form DERIVE_CRITERIA_EXTENDED from include RKEVRK2L after
uninstallation of note 115500(in case you have installed) like this:
Im Dialogfall (Kontierungspopup) Verprobung ob für Feld
Mußeingabe erforderlich (Merkmalsgruppe!)
(nicht f. Faktura, da dort keine Fehlermeldung moeglich)
if ( xt_criteria-field is initial
BEGIN OF DELETION *****
and xt_criteria-status eq '2'
and not is_status_flags-dialog is initial ) .
perform send_message using 'KE' 'E' '494'
END OF DELETION *****
BEGIN OF INSERTION *****
and xt_criteria-status eq '2' ) .
data: l_mtyp type c.
if not IS_STATUS_FLAGS-DIALOG is initial.
l_mtyp = 'E'.
else.
l_mtyp = 'W'.
endif.
perform send_message using 'KE' l_mtyp '494'
END OF INSERTION *****

Afterwards you have to run function module RKE_GENERATE_INTERFACE_ACT
for your operating concern to update the generated program RK2LXXXX.

Maintenance Cost Settlement on Profitability Segment

Hi, Can anyone tell me, that how can we settle our Maintenance Cost from PM to a Profit Center. In my company there is a Cost receiver defined as Profitability Segment and available in Settlement Rule. Can anyone explain, what does it mean. Are we settling out Maintenance Cost to profit Center directly or somewhere else.

Abhishek Sharma,
Yes, you can settle a Profit Segment.
Have a look at the Settlement Profile assigned to your order type (IMG: Maintain Settlement Profiles).

Transfer of Bal from BA to Segment or PCA

Hi All
I would like to know whether it is possible to transfer the balance of the BUSINESS area to New Segment or PCA,once i activate the New G/L .
Procedure that i have to follow for Year end closing in the Migration Period.
Revert
Regards
Praveen

Hi
1) 1KEK - Transferring Payables/Receivables to PCA
The Payables and Receivables are not transferred online to PCA. You have to run this month end program to transfer the balances to PCA.The payables and receivables derive its profit centers from the offsetting entry line of the FI document to which they belong. In a Single invoice there are 2 products belonging to 2 different Profit centers. 2 different profit centers are captured in the sales line item. The customer is not posted with a profit center. After transaction code F.5D (Balance sheet adjustments) has been run the customer will be split according to the sales line item ratio.
2) 2KES - PCA Balance Carry Forward
Balance sheet accounts are carried forward under the same account and divided according to controlling area, profit center and function area.
Once you have activated the function for carrying balances forward in Profit Center Accounting, the system performs it automatically in the actual system for all postings which are transferred from Financial Accounting or entered manually in Profit Center Accounting. You can still Carry forward manually as one of the year-end activities.
Thanks

User exit for profitability segment in service order settlement rule

Does anybody know if exit EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 works for the profitability segment creation during the creation of a settlement rule of a service order?
The context is the following: the company uses service orders which are settled periodically (it receives revenue from sales order which is posted to the service orders at time of billing, and also costs at time of goods issue). The profitability segment in the settlement rule of the service order needs to be the same as the one from the billing document that posted to the order.
Can I use EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 to find the characteristics from the billing document and populate it in the PSG of the settlement rule? If yes, could this be applied to only one specific service order type?
Thank you.

Hi
If your settlement is triggered by a batch or is triggered by a workflow exit EXIT_SAPLKEAK_001 is not run. From release 5.00 on characteristic groups are indeed not considered any more during batch input processes because there were problems before with initial chars of a CO-PA line item resulting from a batch input process that actually shouldn't be initial.
Refer SAP Note 581739, which put an end to usage of char groups during batch input processes. Also refer SAP Note 142628.
