  • Cost Allocation Flexfield with Table Value Sets

    Hi
    I am setting up Costing for Payroll. I have a requirement where I want to use Table Validated value sets for Cost Allocation Flexfield. In the Administrator Guide it is written that we should not use Table validated value sets for any KFFs.
    I still tried the same (defining Table validated value sets) and my process errored out. It was giving following error
    Value 381 for the flexfield segment Cost Center does not exist in the value set
    SJR_COST_CENTER_LIST.
    invalid code combination:
    381SJR_COST_CENTER_LIST is name of the value set.
    Then I changed the value set and keep the code and meaning in the value set table as same and my process worked fine.
    Now I want to know that should I use Table validated value set or not. As Oracle does not support these in KFFs

    Hi Thierry
    Thanks for the reply
    have you used cross validation rules?I am not sure about cross validation rules and how we can use in my case.
    An other thought: there is an action parameter available parameter_name=COST_API_IMODE
    Set the parameter_value = 'Y'In my case my costing process is working fine, even when I define my table validated value sets. My question is should we define table validated values sets or not as Oracle does not support it now? Oracle use to support this for KFFs some time back but now they are saying they does not support.
    Are there any known issues if we use Table validated value sets? Why Oracle does not support it for KFFs?

  • Pay Cost Allocation API

    I have successfully created and run PAY_COST_ALLOCATION_API.CREATE_COST_ALLOCATION in a test environment. The only issue I am having is that instead of end dating the cost allocation on a particular assignment and creating a new allocation on the same assignment, it creates a new assignment for the employee with new costing information.
    Is there a way to simply end date the existing costing allocation for an assignment and insert a new costing allocation for the same assignment? It would seem as simple as updating the effective_end_date for the assignment in Pay_Cost_allocations_f and then inserting a new record in the same table with an appropriate effective_start_date, and although I don't see the update hitting any other tables, I hesitate to change the table directly in that way in the event I am missing something (always a possibility).
    I thought it could be done with the Pay_Cost_allocation_api, but I cannot seem to see how.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Have you tried using PAY_COST_ALLOCATION_API.UPDATE_COST_ALLOCATION API to update the cost allocation.
    You can, like in most of the HR Public APIs, use the two modes: p_datetrack_update_mode = 'CORRECTION' or 'UPDATE' depending on your update mode (if you want to correct/override an entry or update and keep history of the records).
    When writing such a script, you would have 2 main scenarios possible (as I can guess from your requirement): you either call PAY_COST_ALLOCATION_API.CREATE_COST_ALLOCATION or the UPDATE_COST_ALLOCATION procedure depending if costing information exists or nor for the given assignment. You can write a simple procedure which will do this check (based on table "pay_cost_allocations_f" for a given assignment_id) and depending on what's returned, you can call the proper PAY_COST_ALLOCATION_API procedures (CREATE or UPDATE).
    Hope this helps...

  • Msg. error BK048 for manual cost allocation

    Hi,
    we got a warning message for manual cost allocation (KB15N), when posting this allocation just with a quantity and without an amount. We would like to post this allocation without amount and therefore need to change the message type from warning (W) to information (I), to do this posting.
    When using transaction OBA5, there is just a fixed and not adjustable value for Standard with "W". Do you know any workarounds or how we can change this message type to do this posting?
    Regards
    Florian

    Hi Florian,
    HAve you assigned users in OBA5?.
    Go to OBMSG, for this particular Message number in the allowed message types, specify IWE etc. In the standard column specify I. Also you could check on check box "Switch Off" if you want to have the option of not seeing the message at all.
    Now goto OBA5, against the message number, in the "Online" column , specify I or - (Switch Off) and do the same in the BAtchl column also.
    Now you need too specify a user only if you want this change for specific users , if you want all the users to be able to post manual cost allocation then do not specify any user name.
    Do tell me if it works.
    Regards

  • Cost allocation flexfield

    hi
    after reading payroll UG, i am a bit confused about cost allocation flexfield for payroll, assignment, element link, org,element entry.
    can i consider this flexfield as a T ledger, the first popup field is for Debit, the second one is for Credit purposes, when they are used for those 5 sections?

    the payroll - org - element entry - assignment - element link are levels at which you can define to show a segment or not.
    In case a segment is specified at a higher level, it is inherited from the other levels, so an end user has not to enter all the data all over again. (like a waterfall)
    The most detailed level is the element entry level. Imagine if the end user must enter there for each segment and for each segment all values. Too much work and too error prone.
    So you can set values for a specific segment at a specific level (example company code at payroll level).
    Costing then rolls up all levels to fully qualify all the segments.

  • Multiple Cost Allocation Structures in Single Business Group

    We are curently looking at solution design of creating multiple Cost
    allocation flexfield in single business group environment.
    Purpose :
    Based on organization structure (18 companies) , the finance
    consultants proposed multiple COA structures with different
    valuesets , wherein values sets will be specific to the companies .
    This was suggested inorder to aviod tedious job of defining
    validations and post production support.
    This has impact on payroll solution design wrt to cost allocation FF ,
    where in we have to define multiple structures to map to Accounting
    FFs.
    Woudl like to check if oracle payroll supports this kind of setups.
    Note :The implementation is for UAE localization.
    Rgds/Lavanya

    If Finance System has multiple COA structures with different valuesets , wherein values sets will be specific to the companies then they will seperating cosing on Various OU Level.
    As my understanding, you have to create multiple Business Group as per multiple COA structures .
    Thanks

  • Reg. Document type for cost allocation

    Hi,
    Please let me know where can maintain document type for cost allocation so documents get post in GL.
    With best regards
    Praveen Atmakuri

    Hi Praveen
    Can't recollect fully, but please check the FI/CO real time recon variant   Or may be the controlling area in okkp
    Simply activate the real time reconciliation and carry out a cross profit center allocation. Either system will trigger the posting in FI or give you error for missing doc type

  • Cost allocation without a fixed %

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    I have a peculiar query. My client would like to allocate costs (in Controlling) on varying percentages every period. For example on the basis of the % of COGS to Sales of the products. Though the method of calculating this % will stay the same, the percentage per se will change every period.
    Can this be done in SAP Controlling?
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Common cost allocation to assets in service at different times

    Hi,
    My client constructs large assets that typically go into service over a period of several months. They track some asset costs on tasks assigned to a grouping level of specific assets, while other "general" costs are coded to a task assigned to a grouping level of "Common costs". The problem is that when one of the assets gets placed into service, all of the "common" costs get allocated to that assets. This is resulting in disproportionately larger asset costs for the first one placed in service and a smaller share of those costs allocated to the last asset placed into service.
    What is the best method to get these general-type costs to allocate proportionately across all the assets even though they are placed in service across several different months?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    The problem of equal prorating the common costs is that task may still incur costs after the first asset has been placed in service. The other assets will also incur additional costs.
    You may consider holding the common cost till the end of the entire project. That task should not be assigned to common cost, but instead assigned it to a separate asset, with quantity of 100 units. When project is completed and all other assets are placed in service go and interface the "common" asset lines to FA.
    In Mass Addition split that last asset into separate N assets, where N is the number of real assets generated from that project. Now add the cost of the last "common" assets to the other assets already in FA.

  • Cross validation on cost allocation flexfield

    We have setup a cost allocation ff with the option to cross-validate segments. We have correctly defined cross validation rules. Yet, when entering costing information for an element entry, the system allows us to enter a combination which violates our cross-validation rules. We have already checked that this combination was not existing before we created the rule so we do not understand why the rule is not working. Any ideas?

    did u try with the below error message
