Change to settings on Cost centre master record

what problems may happen if change the lock indicator settings on cost centre - currently a flag is in the actual revenues - need to post to this with a cost element set up as 11 revenues (in error) -

hi
The locking indicators will works as under
1. If the locking indicator is on then it will not allow to post revernue. But still this can be posted statistically.
2. If the indicator is removed then you can post actual values.
You can change these indicators any time and it will not have any negative impact on old transactions.
This may help

Change the profit centre in the cost centre master after a year

Hi All,
Could you'll please let me know whether it was possible to change the profit centre in the cost centre master and if i did what will be the implications.
Thanks and Regards,
Vandana

Refer transaction code OKEG.
You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity
types, and business processes with time dependencies. You can make
changes at any time for any given time interval. Data storage also takes
place with a time reference. In this way, a master data record can have
multiple database records storing different information.
The smallest interval is one day. To ensure data consistency, you cannot
change each field daily. The timeframes in which you can change a field
depend on the field functions, which are fixed by the system and cannot
be changed. Master data maintenance includes an automatic check for each
field's time-based consistency, resulting in individual time-based
maintenance for each field.
The following dependencies are supported:
o   Not time-based
o   Day-based
o   Period-based
o   (Fiscal) year-based
This function provides an overview of the time dependencies of
individual master data fields during master data maintenance, along with
checks and storage of consistency timeframes. You find this information
in the "Time dependency" column.
If you use fields requiring characteristics greater than one day and
which are changed for the system lifetime of the object, the system
automatically creates a new database record for this processing
interval, and changes the time-based validity of existing records. The
change is logged in the master data record with the time reference.
However, a great number of changes in multiple timeframes will result in
a correspondingly great number of data records.
Fields which you can change freely (indicated in the DAY column) can
possess different time dependencies only if you mark them additionally
as historically relevant. This activates the time-based updating for the
records.
Object 1000 has one master data record created with a fiscal year of 12
periods and the cost center name AAAAAAAAAA. During master data
maintenance, you change the cost center name in period 5 to BBBBBBBBBB.
The system reacts with one of two options.
o   "Name" is marked as historically relevant. The existing master data
     record for periods 1 - 12 must now become three records:
     1000   01-04   AAAAAAAAAA
     1000   05      BBBBBBBBBB
     1000   06-12   AAAAAAAAAA
o   "Name" is not marked as historically relevant. The existing master
     data record remains intact, with the name changed for the entire
     existence of the record:
     1000   01-12   BBBBBBBBBB

Deleted cost centre master data log

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a way/report to see which cost centre master data was deleted, i.e. something like a log file?
I found a report that can show change documents, but it does not include deleted cost centres.
Thanks in advance!

How to change company code in cost center master

Hi,
Can anyone throw me the light about how to change company code in cost center master? User make some mistake. They maintained wrong company code in cost center master and there are some transactions already posted to this cost center. I would appreciate all attention and point will be reqard. Thanks much
Best Regards,
Bird

Hi,
The cost center master data fields have time dependancy. Following are the details of time dependancy.
You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity types, and business processes as time-based. Changes to any other time interval are possible at any given time. Data storage is also time-based. In this way, you can store multiple database records for a master data record, each holding different information.
The time-based dependencies are determined by SAP and cannot be changed. The following dependencies are possible:
Not time-based
Day-based
Period-based
Fiscal Year-based
Cost Center's company code field's time based dependancy is Fisal Year Based and hence, the company code can be changed on cost center only on new fiscal year. And hence, system will not allow changing company code on cost center master data until new fiscal year if transactions are posted to the cost center.
You may have to think of work around :
1) Create new cost center with correct co code
2) Repost the cost posted to old cost center (with wrong co code) to the new cost center.
Explore the possibility of this work around on your system with the key user and then see whether this option works out.
Hope this helps. Pls. assign points if this is helpful.

Chirag

How to change the field sequence in Customer master record.

Dear Friends,
We are required to chage the sequence of customer master record fields that are available under different tabs of 'General Data', 'Company Code Data' and Sales Area Data.
Our client requirement is to place all mandatory fields in the first screen of customer master record. Here the intention is to save the user time instead going and clicking multiple tabs/screens to fill information on only one or two tabs. Please suggest us the availabe solution in SAP for this requirement.
Thank you
Raghu Ram.

Hi
Step 1: Take help of a FI guy and:
The fields can be suppressed by configuring through Financial accounting > Business Partners > Customers > Account groups.
Step2 : The challenge inyou project is to have a single tab with the allowed fields
A technical guy can only help you out on this . Again This would be a huge effort since first you need to change the code for customer master. As customer master is a source of data for various documents in SD , at each place you will have to do changes in th code...I don't think it is feasible.
Instead of doing this , create an external interface for transferring the value to SAP through BAPI. this would involve integration and may be as per defined SAP standards you can use CSV files or XML files for the integration process.
This would be a better option than fiddling with SAP system

How to change Functional area in cost center master

Dear Guru,
As required, i have to change the Functional area in cost center master data.
SAP Warning Message :
Transaction data exists; note long text
Note
A change of the functional area can lead to inconsistencies when reversing documents.
If documents are reversed after the functional area has been changed, in some cases,
the reversal document may be posted with the new functional area.
My question is how to change the new functional area to the old one after reversing documents.
We aren't using Special Purpose Ledger . Please Help me, thanks.

Hi
For the transactions already posted you will not be able to change the Functional Area. Also if those documents are getting reversed now after the change, the reversal document will get posted to the new Functional Area only.
For all those documents which gets reversed after the change, you need to pass FI journal entry by changing the Functional area in the journal entry and not in the Cost Center Master

Dear,
Business areas are your line of business. You will not have number of business areas in an organization.
If I give you an example of a chemical company
You will have
Soda Ash
Salt
Chlorine
Fertilizers
Under each business area you have 100 departments, say cost centers, you have.
All 100 cost centers relatings to soda ash will be assigned with business area soda ash. In KS02, for cost center relating to soda ash will be assigned with SODA business area, accordingly postings made to the cost center relating to soda ash will hit SODA business area.
At the end of the day you should able to identify, though it is a common cost, this should be relating to which business area. You need to bifurcate your postings per business area.
Meaning that if you want to post travelling expenses of person, who has done work for two different business areas.
In that case
the entry would be
Travelling Expenses Dr 200 (Co assignment Cost Center of SODA ASH)
Travelling Expenses Dr 120 (Co assignment Cost Center of SALT)
To Cash Account (Co assignment Cost Center of SODA ASH)
To Cash Account (Co assignment Cost Center of SALT)

Change cost centres for train crew personnel

What is the impact if we change train crew personnel cost centre's within a same company code to another cost centre with another business area?
Edited by: Annelize Meyer on Feb 2, 2009 7:20 AM
Edited by: Annelize Meyer on Feb 2, 2009 8:10 AM

The challenge is the following;
Personnel has been created in a business area "COAL" and linked to payroll area S2. We must move these traincrew personnel to business area "BATX" but payroll area S1.
1. What is the FI and HR implication?
2. Do we have to create new posts on HR within BATX? If so, how can we do this programatically?
3. Can we link the cost centre hierachy to the new BATX cost centre and will we be able to post at month-end to FI?

Depreciation defaulted to one Cost Centre (OKB9)

Good day SAP Experts
One of our companies' depreciation depreciation was defaulted to post one cost centre (Admin). This was set on OKB9, specifying company code, cost element (211110) and the cost centre.
This worked, but now we had to change that each individual cost centre must collect its depreciation expense. We tried to take this entry out of OKB9, when executing the depreciation run an error is experienced saying that a CO assignment is needed for this account. Cost centres are maintained on all assets.
We double checked the GL and cost element, as we are having several companies on the same chart of accounts but different controlling area. Their characteristics in all companies are the same.
Can you please help as to what the problem may be? We also tried to enter all possible Profit Centre and their equivalent cost centres in OKB9, but still get the same error.
Regards
Theo

Dear,
Theo
Unless depreciation account is cost element , posting on cost center will not take place. In your case it is correct.
Going next you assign cost center in asset master and system will post depreciation on that cost center
as your said requirement each cost center assigned in asset master will collect respective value.
Your defiition of depreciation posting to cost center must be set in T.code ACSET and the same must be activated as well.
OKB9 is your default cost element account assignment in terms of Cost center, profit center, Business Area.
Hope this helps you to clarify questioned. If you have any doubts feel free to share.

Pankaj A Bhalerao.
