CO, which table decribes "cost center" and "cost center group"?

Hello experts,
now I have the transaction KP06. Maybe through customizing the user has built a "cost center group" for some "cost center".
In which table can I find out the relationship between the "cost center" and "cost center group" ?
Thanks.

Cost Element: cost element is an individual which carry cost like salaries, wages, power expenses, etc.. These Cost Elements are Two types
1. Primary Cost Element
2. Secondary Cost Elements
Primary Cost Element will carry cost form FI to CO (Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc)
Seconday Cost Elements carry cost with in CO to different Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc
Cost Center: Cost Center is an individual which contain collection of costs. For example Admin is a cost center, it contain costs like Salaries, Power, Rent, Stationary etc,
With this following report you can retrieve cost elements given a cost center controlling cost center accounting information systems reports for cost center accounting plan/actual comparisons

Transporting Master data - New GLs,Cost Center and profit Center.

Dear Friends,
1. I have to create new GLs in Dev, Now i have to transport the new GL to Quality and Production. As per my knowledge, Master data has to created in DEV,Quality and Production.
please suggest, is there any t.code where i can transport GL from Dev to quality and production.
2. when Creation of the site, New Cost center,Profit center, Changes to standard hierarchy both in cost center and profit center hierarchy has to done in dev,quality and production manually.
Any suggestions where i can do only in dev and transport to quality and production.
3. After creating new cost center and profit center, i have to go to okb9, select the co.code,cost element and insert the new cost center and profit center in every cost element. This takes almost one hour.
Please suggest how to reduce this manually process.
All the help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Sridhar Reddy

Hi ,
Master data is to be created in diffrent clients as it is a non transportable object .
So in case of GL , cost centers you will have to again re run the LSMW which you had created for DEV .
Secondly OKB9 is a transportable object , so i dont feel there should be an issue in adding it to a transportable object .
In case of adding the values of tables in a request what you can do is create a request , go to SE01 open the request in change mode in the objects enter TABU and enter on the relevant entries that you want to transport .
But again one has to be very clear on what all table entries are to be transported , like SKA1 , SKB1 , SKAT etc. looking at the complexities and moving ahead with the standard way it is advisable to re run the LSMW in QUA and PRD .
Hope this helps .

Cost center and profit center details

Hi All
Is there any function module or BAPI to obtain cost center and profit center details
for a GL account. Actually I am obtaining the carry forward balance for a
fiscal year from the table GLT0 but I am not getting the corresponding profit center
and cost center details.
Please suggest a way forward!
Regards
Ankit

Hi,
If you are getting data from GLT0 table, using the Account number go to SKA1/SKB1 tables and get the CostCenter(KOSTL) and Profit Center(PRCTR). If you want to get details about CostCenter, its master table is CSKS and master table for Profit Center is CEPC. you can get required info from these tables.

Cost centre and cost element related tables

Hi,
Could any help me in knowing whre the cost centre goup and cost element groups are maintained.
Could you help in proving the link tables between Cost centre, Cost centre Group, Cost element and Cost element group.
Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
Please refer to Table SETLEAF for cost element group and cost center group. This table is based on set class and 0101 is for Cost Center Group and 0102 is for Cost Element Group.
Cost Center Master data table is CSKS and Cost element Master data table is CSKB. To the bse of my knowledge you cannot directly join these two tables with SETLEAF table as key figure fields are not common. In case you are getting any ABAP report developed, you can ask the developer to write a code saying Controlling Area is equal to Organizational Unit as Set Subclass.
Hope this helps.

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

Cost Center and Profit Center Planning

Hi,
I have one Co issue. Pls Suggest me the wiseful solution.
Cost Center and Profit Center Planning.
For F-2008 Planning data they have updated in the month of Aug, 07 for Profit and Loss Items and they have revised the plan data of some cost elements in the month of oct, 2007 (say 5% Increas). when comparing the cost center report to profit center report, both are not matching. the reason when i see and reconcile the document nos and values in between cost center and profit center reports i found out that there are some documents are missing in the profit center report.
wherever plan data had revised e.g for cost element Salaries they have updated 100000 Planning cost in the month of Aug, 07. In the month of Oct, 07 increased 5% i.e.5000. In cost center line items details i found 2 documents for Rs.100000/- and Rs.5000/- But in Profit Center Line Items i am getting only Rs.5000/- Value Document.
Note. As and when KP06 Plan data has been updated Profit Center line items are generating. It is not necessary to run any programme inorder to transfer Plan Data from cost center to profit center.
Observations From My Side:-
I tried to run the transaction code 1ke0. i have selected the cost object is Cost Center, version and had given Cost Center Parameter in development and quality clients and executed the same.By this time already existing data either deleting/ riversing and creating new documents fully except manually changed data in profit center through 7ke1.
My Question is
1.Upto what extent it will work.
2.will it be possible to transfer data from cost center to profit center only missing documents which are available in cost center, without disturbing of existing data in profit center.
3.suppose if i done this activity, there are some data which was already transferred from other cost objects like internatl orders & wbs elements to Profit Center. will the data get disturbed (deleted/riversed).
Pls suggest me the wiseful way to solve the

Cost Center and Cost Element Hierarchy and Actual Cost Center

In Bex - Right now I am displaying Cost Center and Cost Element hierarchy with 12 months of data. I want to display the actual Cost center number next to cost element hierarchy - Can I display in Bex?
Tried to with Structure creating formula variable for Cost Center using replacement path - didn't work. Can you please suggest me how i can achieve this?
The format should be
CostCenter H1 CostElement H1 CostCenter Jan Feb ...
Thanks in advance and appreciate for any help...

Let me explain it clearly and hope it is clear now...
Designed the report as like this - Cost Center Hierarchy by Cost Element Hierarchy for 12 months of data. But Business agian search in R/3 for actual cost center numbers based on above two hierarchy nodes.
I am trying to achieve this Bex instead of going back to R/3 - so that they can understand how the dollar amount is summed up on which major cost centers.
If I remove the hierarchy on Cost Center - it will display all the cost centers. They want to see the Cost center numbers based on CC and CE hierarchy node so that you are displaying only those cost centers. That's the reason I am trying to design the report with CC Hier, CE hier, Cost Center number and 12 months of data.
In my data model - have only one Cost Center, if i can create another ZCOSTCENTER same as 0COSTCENTER - May be I can achieve this. still looking for options with out changing the design.

Difference between Cost center and profit center

I need to know what the difference is between a cost center and a profit center eg. A work center has both a cost center and a profit center. What do they collect for that particular work center.
Thanks

hi tefo
differenc is whatever the cost involved will be collected both to the cost center and profit center, when we settle the order it will be settled in the cost element for cost center. the cost will be reflected in profit center which is assinged to the particular cost center.in profit center you can cpature revenue also which is used to map the profit loss for the concern, where as cost center will only capture the expenses

Cost Center and Profit Center in NewGL

Dear all,
We defined new customer fileld in the NewGL for spliting the document number. Everything works fine! We have only one problem.
Afer posting a new document we see the cost center and Profit center in the classic GL. When we change to NewGL is this fields empty. Is there any customizing to do here?
Thank you!

Thank you very much for the information. I allready had inserts this fields. Problem here is
we have a new customer field in NewGL ZZPMS. This field is not availible in table FAGL_FIELD_MOVE. Therefore I get a dump in RGIMOVV0.
Now my question: This customizing is only to assign a costomer field ZZPMS to a profit center or a cost center, ect. . This mean, I will get in the NewGL the value of my ZZPMS in the profit center and cost center incase of the original values. Is this right?
Thank you

COPA derivation for thecombination of Cost center and Cost element/GL accou

Hi Gurus,
In COPA derivation using KEDR i am trying to make a derivation for the
combination of Cost center and Cost element. Here i got following problems
While posting FI document using t.code FB50 system not automatically
updating the fields Cost center and cost element in Profitability
segment. Hence system not posting COPA document. How can i make this
derivation? Is there any note should i apply regarding these.
How can i create cost element as characteristic.
If i configure derivation for the combination of Cost center and cost
element will it be posted with copa document for postings or automatic
postings from MM,HR and FI
Pls provide me solution at the earliest.

Hi Murali
Thanks for update
I explain my req clearly
For me segment is Distribution channel field (EXPORT and DOMESTIC)
If GL account is 1000-2000     always                      Export
If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     X then Export.
If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     Y then Domestic.
Based on above REQ i am making derivation using KEDR T.code.
These postings should work for all modules postings such as MM, HR also.
Actually this should work automatically and after saving the transaction we should have copa document also.
But problem is in source fields of derivation we have GL account (HKONT) and Cost element (KSTAR). I am making derivation using either of these.
But after posting document system not giving COPA document.
I found the reason is at GL postings we are giving input to GL account (HKONT) but we took in KEDR source field as GL account (SAKNR). GL account (HKONT) is not updating GL account (SAKNR) field in PSEG screen in Fb50. Even i try with cost element (KSTAR), GL account (HKONT) is not updating this in PSEG screen in fb50.
If GL account (HKONT) updates either GL account (SAKNR) or cost element (KSTAR) at the time of posting FB50
Or
If we have the field GL account (HKONT) as source field in KEDR i hope my problem
Get solved.
If you want further info pls give me your mobile number then i ll call you

Hello,
I need to get the hierarchy from R/3 to BW. Can someone send me a link or mention steps i need to do to bring profit center and cost center hiearchy from R3 to BW.
Thanks
Laura.

As you would for any other infoobject
Activate the business content hierarchy datasources on R3 for cost centre and profit centre
Go into BW - replicate the metadata
Then just connect via transformations or transfer rules the datasources to yoru infosources or master data objects
Create an infopackage per hierarchy!!!!! - press the button available hirachies from OLTP - click the one you want on the left - fire it off
Then repeat new infopackages for all hierachies
