Hi,
You can create a Transaction Variant for the transaction VA02 in which you have to maintain the WBS Element field as output only.
1. Go to SHD0, enter VA02 in Transaction & give a name to the transaction variant and press Create.
2. Enter an order no., go to the item "Account Assignment" tab.
3. Check "Output Only" against WBS Element in the screen listing all the tabstrips & Fields.
4. Exit & Save.
You will be returned to the SHD0 screen.
Select the "Standard Variants" Tab under "Standard Vriants" tab. Press activate to activate the Transaction Variant.
Go to VA02 to test the variant. You will get the WBS Element disabled.
Revert in case of any doubts.

How to change WBS Element in FI Entry for Asset

Hi all,
I have a scenario where an asset has been capitalized with WBS element 1. After several months we realized that it has to go to WBS element 2.
We update the Asset Master Data with a new WBS Element 2.
Depreciation from this date onwards is posted to WBS Element 2 (this is expected), but in FI the asset acquisition cost is still in WBS element 1.
Does anyone know how to rectify the FI document with correct WBS element i.e WBS Element 2
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Pramod Saraswat

Hi Pramod,
In posted document you cant change the WBS element.
In order to post on WBS 2 , you have to reverse the acquisation entry posted on WBS1. Then update correct one in asset master then post acquisation.

Checking WBS elements when changing WBS element group

Dear Gurus,
Well I am a technical consultant, I use to dwell in the ABAP forum, so maybe I am going to say things without much sense, if so please tell me.
I have a problem. One of our customers uses transaction KJH2 to change WBS elements groups and they have asked us to check the WBS elements that the users can put in the transaction.
If a user adds a new WBS range both the WBS elements have to exist in the system, we have to check it somehow, probably using a user-exit or a BADI.
The problem is that I have been looking for a BADI or a USER-EXIT for many hours and I have been unable to find one which allows us to check this, same when the user inputs the WBS element as when we save the changes.
Somebody has some help? Any advice would be apreciated.
In the while I will keep trying to find it and if I succeed I will post it here anyhow.
So long I have put a break-point in the 'CL_EXITHANDLER' class and I have checked the BADIs that can be used when I make the process, none can be useful I think. I have tried to find a USER-EXIT and I have foud none.
Thanks in advance to everyone.

Hi Ayan,
Maybe you are right and we can't use a BADI for this. But we have a customer which has requested us to code this data check so I have to try.
I agree that this is master data but it is a simple data check without many consecuences (at least it seems so to me), maybe there is a way to do this.
Right now I think I am going to stop this until Monday as the FI consultant is now on vacation.
Thanks a lot for your reply.

Changing WBS element in PO

Hi
In my Purchase Order, earlier it was account assigned to a WBS element A. When we ran CJI3, it showed the same. But now the account assignment of WBS element was changed to B. I have no idea how this got changed. I only can check from the Purchase Order history and found that "Profit center has been changed for the item".
How this could have happened? Any info reg this will be helpful. Thanks.

Ram

Hi,
You can check the same in item >envoirnment-> changes.
Also if your PO is made wrt PR & some one has changed the wbs in PO only then it will not show correct commitment values in PS reports.
If you want your data to be correct then you give authroization only to your Planning team to change the WBS element. You can ask your consultant to make these fields as grey when PR is converted to PO.

Change WBS element short ID

Hi,
I am facing the following problem.
In transaction code 'CJ02', WBS element 'A.000690.0002' is changed by mistake to 'A.000722'.
When the user tries to put back the same short ID 'A.000690.0002' , he is getting the following error.
'WBS element A.000690.0002 version FREI_VERSION already exists'.
Can anyone help in resolving the issue.
All the help and efforts will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Ranga

Hi,
Customizing is most likely set to make a status - triggered project version automatically. Once this version is created system will not allow you to make a WBS with the same key, though in the operational project a WBS with that key no longer exists. If you run CN41, opting version data in DB profile and inputting version key in selection screen, you should be able to see this WBS.
Hence there seems to be no remedy for the problem.

Change WBS element from non-statistical to statistical

Hi all,
In the control tab of a WBS element, I am trying to change it from non-statistical to statistical. However, the checkbox is grayed out and not allowing me.
I have tried using transaction CNMASS for this but I am getting error CJ727: Changing the contents of the field is not permitted
How can I resolve this?
Thanks,

i guess you have released the wbse. so system will not allow to indicate the statistical check box. as per standard you
have the indicate the check box before you release the wbse.
if you haven't the wbse then check the field status of statistical in opuk.

How to Change WBS Element Status Profile

Dear PS Experts,
Once Status profile is set for WBS element, system is not allowing to change the same.
What should I do to change the status profile?
Moreover I will like to know the Table details in which Status profile details are kept for a WBS Element.
Thanking you all.

Hi,
You can change the status profile on 'Control' tab of Project Definition. But this change will be effective for new WBS elements. I dont think you can change status profile for existing WBS. You will have to delete and re-create them.
Status proflie for WBS is stored in JSTO table. Get OBJNR for WBS from PRPS table and insert in JSTO table to get status profile.

Error in WBS Element Hierarchy load after ECC 6.0 Upgrade

Hi All,
After ECC 6.0 Upgrade in R/3, we are doing test load in a Test server. While doing, we have encountered an issue with 0WBS_ELEMENT Hierarchy load. The message in the monitor is like below.
"Node ID 00014240 has not been included in the hierarchy
Message no. RH207"
When I run the same hierarchy in another system which is not upgraded , it works fine.
Anybody has faced similar kind of issues and can throw some light on this issue?
Thanks,
Mohan

Try activating the Heirarchy in R/3 and re-trigger the load, error is very specific to structure of the hierarchy. there is a possibility that this Hierarcy could have got inconsistent after the upgrade.
Thanks,
Amit

Change of Cost Center in Asset Master for Investment measure (AuC) Assets.

Hi,
We have an asset class 4001 which has been maintained as an investment measure for AuC. I want to change cost center for all the assets that are maintained in the asset class 4001. The system is showing cost center field in display mode in change transaction of the asset AS02 for all the assets in the asset class. I want to replace the old cost center with new cost center in the asset master record. How can I make the cost center field changeable ?
Can anyone help me ?
Regards,
K.S.K

Hi Kattula,
We can change the cost center for AUC with Investment Measure. To do this you need to identify the relevant WBS element assigned to your asset. You can find the WBSE in Origin tab of your asset master record.
Then go to the change WBS element Transaction CJ12 and change the cost center. Once you change the cost center of the WBSE, the change would automatically get reflected in the correspondind asset master record.
This would solve your issue.
Thanks & Regards

Mutually cancelling entry in CJI3 after order settlement to WBS element

Hi,
In our scenario we create Service Orders for work execution & assign WBS element to the service order (to control the spends). When actual costs get booked in the service order, I can see these costs in the Project Actual Cost Line items report (CJI3). When I settle the order costs to the WBS element, there is a mutually cancelling entry in the CJI3 report for that WBS element for the settled amount. Is this the right behaviour?
Can someone pl enlighten how the cost flows from order to WBS element before settlement & after settlement?
Thanking you in advance
Rgds
Deepak

That's normal with line item report incase you use settlement 'By cost element' (Allocation structure)
If you use by settlement 'Settlement cost element' you see another line item but again the net balance would be zero.
But in case of hierarchy reports in PS settlement transactions are ignored.
To see actual costs on WBS in the line item report, try to use filters and filter out settlement transaction (field offset type, or settlement cost element)

Statistical WBS element posting - Asset

Hi,
From the SAP help on AS03 transcation field on Origin tab >Account Assignmnet for investment - WBS element , I see the following information.
WBS element investment project
Enter the WBS element here, if the system should automatically make statistical postings of the transactions on this asset to this WBS element.
You can specify in the Customizing definition of the transaction types, whether statistical automatic posting should take place for certain transactions.
But I am unable to find a setting in the transaction type which allows the statistical postings on the WBS element , when we are posting to the asset.
We have a requirement to post statistical postings to WBS element when posting to the asset and we thought of using this funtionality but unable to find the setting which allows the statistical postings on the transaction type.
If anyone knows how to make this setting , could you please share with me.
Thanks
Vara Prasad

Hi Markus,
Thanks for your response.
Even with the OSS note I am unable to find how to change the asset accounting transaction types allowed for statistical postings to WBS elements.
I am aware of other steps in the configuration except this setting, could you please let me know if you have any idea on this setting specifically.
Regards
Vara Prasad
