Compounding Controlling areas and Cost Centers

Hi,
We have only one Controlling area value, say ZC11. I am looking at an InfoObject Master Data table for an InfoObject, and it seems that there are no differences in the records with the Controlling area and Cost Centers with those of blank Controlling areas and Cost Centers.
Is it necesary to define the compounded InfoObject of the Controlling Area to the Cost Centers in this case? I understand that compounding is for use if there are many different Controlling Areas for the same Cost Centers.
What would be the best approach on this?
Thanks,
RT

Hi Bhanu,
May I ask what would be the core change of the SAP InfoObject? I would think that modeling wise, it would be beneficial to not compound if there was just one Controlling area.
I am actually uploading data and I am getting an error that lists the error "value Cost Center/Controlling Area/ Company code is not permitted for characteristics Company Code". I am sending only the value Cost Center but somehow it is looking for the Controlling Area. Should I be sending both the Controlling area and its correspdoning Cost Center?
Thanks,
RT

Responsible Cost Center and Profit Center in a Maintenance Order

Dears,
I would like to know what's the real influence that responsible cost center and profit center located in the
"add. data" tab in maintenance order has when I confirm a labor (through the IW41) and settlement an maintenance order.
Best Regards,
D. Quint.

D Quintal,
When you perform a confirmation (IW41) the cost centre assigned to the work centre is credited, and the order debited.
This work centre cost centre may be the same cost centre as the responsible cost centre in the order...

Profit center field is null /blank Not picking from responsible cost center

Hi
1) Does anyone know if it is possible to change the profit center on a PM order after transactions have occurred? I get an error that says:
You want to change the profit center for the maintenance order.
System Response:
The system does not let you change the profit center, because postings to the order have already taken place.
2) Even though profit center is maintained for the cost center of the main work center. Responsible cost center and Profit center fields are not being proposed by the system when the work order is being created using T-code IW31.
Because of profit center field is null the system automatically picks dummy profit center"9999". This is not correct.
Correct Profit center should comes from the cost center.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in Advance

Vishvesh

Responsible Cost Center on WBS (cj20n - project builder)

Dear All,
We normally put responsible cost center in our each WBS. However, it takes time if we put one by one in each WBS. How can we make that we only need put in first level WBS then all WBS under 1st level will follow the responsible cost center. Please advice.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Kishore,
I already gave you the full point. I belive you are good in PS. Could you me some advice ?We use project,network and activity. Then we put Investment management to budget and activate availability control. After that normally we create PR/PO under network as well the material planning for reservation. However we found some issues.
1. There is no availability control to check budget when we create reservation. Is there any config or something that could check our availability control (AVAC) when we create reservation.?
2. We have issue in our remaining order plan (report S_ALR_87013558). We do not want our remaining goes to remaining order plan. For example : we have PR=10, PO=10, GR=8. Then we force close the PO (marking the delivery completed). The 2 open quantity goes to remaining order plan. How can we make it goes to available budget when we force close? However, we want this remaining order plan to monitor our reservation. In other words, when we create reservation before actual the value goes to remaing order plan in report S_ALR_87013558
Many thanks in advance.

Hi

Please give me an advice step by step the way to get this field as parameter in report painter

Chompleon

Hi,
I have a similar requirement. I have followed OSS note 358251 as an example to add the 'Responsible Cost Center', however it doesn't display in the report even after I choose the field for display. The steps I have followed are -
1) Added the field ZZ_KOSTV in the include structure CI_CC1S.
2) Using transaction GRCT, table CCSS, I added a characteristic KOSTV with Def field OBJNR, and filler routinue EZZ_FILL_KOSTV. I then wrote code in this routinue to populate the value KOSTV from AUFK table in the include program FK21REZZ. In debug mode, I can see correct values are populated in this field.
3) I created a copy of an existing report in the library 6O1, changed it and in the Total line, added the field Responsible Cost Center to the Selected Characteristics. When I save, regenerate and execute the report, the value for Responsible Cost Center doesn't get displayed though the displayed orders have a value populated in this field and when I debug I can see the value is passed ut correctly form the filler routinue to the field KOSTV.
Please help and let me know what I need to do to be able to see this field in the output result.

Responsible cost center vs Cost Center

I was wondering what cost center takes prevalence over the other when creating a maintenance order the Responsible cost center vs Cost Center. The Functional location has its own Cost center “Responsible cost center” as well as the Work Centers that are assigned to people “Cost Center”. When creating Maintenance orders I have orders that use the FL work center sometimes and other times it uses the Work Center. I really need the FL to take priority over the WC if that is possible. Any suggestions?

Hi Lynn,
There is a bit confusion in your query.
To make it clear, Responsible cost centre comes from work centre for operations, where the cost is calculated based on the activity / cost centre assignment in KP26.
Cost centre in Technical object will be responsible for settlement. When the settlement rule is created, it will be assigned as receiver object and work order cost is settled to this cost centre.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
Terence

0315 infotype error when we are updating the cost center

Hi Experts
for one employee when i am going to change the cost center in 0315 infotype it is giving the error like
cost center does not exist in CSKS . but i checke in CSKS table it is availble in CSKS
but i noticed one point in this t-code for last costcenter , controlling area is not availble.
is this the cause for error.
Plz advise.
Thanks

Hi,
If you are checking the cost center by querying on CSKS table, The cost center should be of length 10.
You need to append Zeros to the cost center in the front to make the length as 10 and pass it to CSKS table.
Use the FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to input zeros in the front.
Thanks,
Sowmya

Business area field in Cost center

Dear Guru's
We created a Cost center for a validity period of 01.01.2006 to 31.12.9999 with a business area of ABC.
Transactions and line items are existed in the cost center
Now we decided to change the business area of the cost center from the ABC TO XYZ. I went to KS02 here the filed is editable mode when i enter the new business area for cost center it gives a message in the following manner.
Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)
Message no. KS134
please could you help me how to change the field.
Thanks and Regards

Dear Laxmi,
There are records that have been created and hence the system is not allowing you to change the data. Change the analysis period and then system would allow you.
KS02 -> Enter the Controlling area -> Enter the cost centre -> go to menu "EDIT- Analysis period" -> click on the button "Other Analysis Period" and change the validity.
Regards,
Naveen.

Responsible Cost Center on WBS a required field

1. How do I make the responsible cost center on WBS a required field
2. If it is required on WBS is it also required on all other WBS's in that Project

You do this with transaction OPUK.
You can make general properties of the fields here but if you want to make field property required or optional accordign to other property you see a button Influencing, enter this button, You see the following:
Acct asst elem.
Billing element
Business area
Company code
Controlling area
Field key
Level
Planning element
Plant
Priority
Profit Center
Proj.type
Project Profile
Statistical
It means that field properties (requiered, optional, hide) can depend on your selection in influencing fields...

Derivation of Responsible Cost Center through WBS in FB60

Hi;
I have came across an issue and need any advice from your side.
Issue is , whenever i go to FB60 to park/post and invoice, in the line item whenever I select WBS it automatically should fill up the COST Center field (Derived From Responsible Cost Center , CJ20N - Project Builder)
I have used FMDERIVE to solve the issue.. but it doesnt work Out.
As in FMDERIVE when i select the field for Responsible Cost Center (PRPS-FKSTL) and in refrence to it the filed available is COST Center (KOSTL)... so simply it doesnt work.
Kindly any good solution to this.
Regards.

Dear;
I have Used BADi : BADI_FM_USE_ASSIGN
It only helped me give error message and in error message it mentioned the exact Cost Ctr Lying in Responsible Cost Ctr Field.
But i will still in search for solution that it should derive the responsible cost ctr value in the Line Item, not in the error message at the bottom of screen.

Changing business area on a cost center

We mainly use HR, but we use some FI/CO for accounting. (I am no expert in FI/CO whatsoever - so please excuse any incorrect terms).
Our users have entered incorrect business area to a cost center.
This business area is now registered on employees, and payroll/posting has been run up unitil October 2010.
If I try to change business area from 01.11.2009 (realize it is probably not good to change earlier due to postings); I get the following error message: "Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
In addition, the message says: If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...". However, trying to change the analysis period I am told I have to choose year end.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way I can change business area from 01.11.2009 ?
2. Is there a way to change area earlier - and if so, what are the impacts+
I appreciate any help
Kirsten

Hi Kirsten,
Normally, it's not possible to change business area during a fiscal year once there is already postings in this Fiscal Year.
The reason is to make sure that there is no change within the fiscal year since you then would have different postings - cost center belonging to different business areas within the same fiscal year. Meaning that it is possible to change the business area for the next fiscal year like described in the long text of the error message KS134. The reason is that it is to avoid inconsistency update of the table (COSS, COEP, or COSP).
Although, If the following requirements are met, than it is is possible to change the business area during a fiscal year with the
help of the note 62716:
1. The change interval is set to period limits
2. There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval
    or afterwards.
3. There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost
    center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this
    is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center'
If the requirements are met, you can run the report RKACOR06 in SE38
safely. I recommend you to execute the report first with Test Run on
your test system.

Greta
