Controlling area profit center

Hi all,
Could anybody suggest me on what are the" impacts " for activating the profit center accounting at controlling area level.
Thanks
kishore

Hi Kishore
Just by activating, there is no impact..
Activating PCA at controlling area level, means you can use the Profit Center Accounting in your system.. You can create Profit centers and add them in various masters like Cost centers, Int Orders, Material Masters, etc

K_PCA - EC-PCA: Responsibility Area, Profit Center

Hi Experts
Is there any report which will show which user has k_pca profit center access
PFCG-> Z_USER_ROLE->AUTHORIZATIONS TAB-> change authorization data->Manually tap button type k_pca and press enter to insert authorization then you can see controlling -> EC-PCA : Responsibility Area Profit Center -> CO-OM Responsibility Area -> profit center group.
I want to know how many users has access for CO-OM Responsibility area (P&L Access) and to what profit center group .
Is there any tables in which a query can be wrote to fetch the detail authorization
regards
Piroz

Have you executed a trace while a functional user executes the transaction code for the specific parameters? (i.e. document type). The trace will then show which objects are being checked; then look at the object documentation in txn Su21 to determine if there are any ways to restrict on the particular value; in some cases, if the authorization group field is being checked, additional configuration is needed in order to implement the security (Su21 will explain in detail for the particular object).

Business area & profit center

When it is useful to activate new Profitcenter & when it is useful to activate Business Area.
Can any body narrate difference and benefts of each
Thanks & Regards
krishna.

Hi,
Profit center and business are org units and both are used for similar purposes.
Business area is gared on external accounting where as profit centers are used for internal accounting purposes
Business Area
Based on the above we can prepare Balance sheet and profit
centre for separate product segment, geographical segment
etc. In India for certain companies it is the external
reporting.
Profit Centre
Based on the above responsble profit centre derive the
profit (only profit) (revenue minus expenses). Internal
reporting
Thanks

Impact Analysis: Business Area, Profit Center changed for Sales Order type

Hi All,
Can you please let me know the impact of changing the Business Area and Profit Center for Sales Order Document types.
Scenario:
Let's say that sales document type ZOR has been used for sometime. On this document x number of sales orders have been raised, delivered and invoiced over the years.
Now, if you change the Business Area and Profit Center what would be the business impact.
thanks,

Hi,
First of all itu2019s not a good business practice to change the Business area and Profit Centre.
However if at all l you change the Business area and Profit centre the following is the impact::
Business Area: effects the sales order in accounts assignment at Header level.
Profit centre: effects the accounting part at Item level
Overall in MIS reporting w.r.t Profit and Business Analysis in Finance will be affected.
Thanks and regards

Profit Center does NOT exist on 08/24/2010 (Message KM700)

Hello,
I am using resource related billing.
I am adding a Contract Line Item to an existing contract.
In this Contract Line Item I am entering a wbs element for whichc the associated profit center has an effective date
of 01/01/2011.
The Contract Header has a document date of 08/24/2010
After entering the wbs element in the new contract line and hitting enter I receive the below warning message:
Profit center ###/##### does not exist for 08/24/2010
Message no. KM700
###/##### = Controlling Area/Profit Center
Is there a setting that can be switched off so that the warning is NOT displayed ?
Thanks
Ermanno.

If it is warning message, the user can leave as it is. If it is error then in t.code KE52, you can change the validity period by clicking the change validity period button. Change here validity period from date 08/24/2010, thereby you can avoid this message.
Does this answer your question? If not why you want to remove the warning message? It looks it is standard message, used by more than one program.

How to find the profit center group for a profit center?

How to find the profit center group for a profit center?

Hi,
try this also
In order to pass the setid parameter of the FM, you have to concatenate the following things
Setid + KOKRS (Controlling area) + Profit Center Group into one variable.
In my example below, I have declared as constants and concatenating to gv_setid.
gc_01016 is the set id for profit centers
gc_kokrs is the controlling area
gp_pprct is the Profit Center group entered in the selection screen.
You will get KOKRS value from the cepc-kokrs.
data :   gc_0106(4)   TYPE c VALUE '0106',
           gc_kokrs      LIKE cepc-kokrs VALUE 'ABCD'.
           gv_setid          LIKE sethier-setid,
           gt_set_values_1   LIKE setvalues OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
CONCATENATE gc_0106 gc_kokrs gp_pprct INTO gv_setid.
CONDENSE gv_setid.
CALL FUNCTION 'G_SET_TREE_IMPORT'
    EXPORTING
      client                    = sy-mandt
      fieldname                 = 'RPRCTR'
      langu                     = sy-langu
      setid                     = gv_setid
      tabname                   = 'GLPCT'
      no_table_buffering        = 'X'
    TABLES
      set_values                = gt_set_values_1
    EXCEPTIONS
      set_not_found             = 1
      illegal_field_replacement = 2
      illegal_table_replacement = 3
      OTHERS                    = 4.
By using the above FM you will get the values into gt_set_values1 once sys-subrc value eq 0, it is internal table which consists of all the profit centers for the proft center group.

Profit center assign in Copany code and controling Area

where Profit center assign in Copany code and controling Area ?

Hi,
Company code, Controlling Area, Profit centre, Cost centres are created by FI/CO functionals.
Pl. discuss with your FI/CO counterpart.
My suggestion is that, don't create yourself, because it integrates to lot of other areas.
Just for learning purpose, you can go to SPRO-Controlling-Profit centre accounting.

See Note 386391
The CRM Server is connected to an R/3 System that can be used to map Controlling and Profit Center Accounting. This note describes how the profit center is determined in the CRM integration.
In the sales process and in service processing, the profit center is determined during the replication into the R/3 System and is stored in the translator.
