Cost Center (Actuals or Reforecast) vs. Plan

Hello,
I know this can be done because I saw it at another client.  I would like to create a Cost Center report that displays Actuals for months that have already past, and the Reforecase for months that have not already past.
For example, assuming it's July 2006.  End user enters July 2006, and query returns 13 columns.  The first 7 columns show Actuals, the next 5 show Reforecast, and the last column shows Plan (the easy part).  How do I build logic in query?  Do I use Formula variable?  If so, can anyone provide details?
Thank you.

Ciao Riccardo,
You're approach is excellent.  I followed all your steps and changed the setting in the global properties.  Everything seems to work, but the Actuals columns for August, Sept, Oct, Nov, and December still appear (even though they are all zero).  Here's exactly what I set:
Query Properties
   Display Tab
      Suppress Zeroes
          Suppression = Active (All values=0)
          Effect On = Columns (also tried rows and columns)
Any thoughts on why the Actuals columns still appear for Aug - Dec?

  • Re: Query for Cost center actual by period.

    Hi Experts,
    Good Morning everybody,
    I want cost center actual values (with cost element) by period. I have created query through T.code-SQVI by joining tables COSP and CSKS.
    I got the report, but i cannot see the foreign currency postings in SQVI report. so there was a difference between SQVI and KSB1 report.
    Why i cannot see Foreign currency postings in SQVI report. please advise me, whether any other table that i can use in the query for cost center actuals by period.
    Thanks in advance & Points will be assign for useful answers,
    KUMAR

    See the answer in FI thread.
    Hi,
    KSB1 is based on COEP table. COSP shows only external postings. You should take COSS as well for internal postings in CO. Check the nature of the join with CSKS: notice COSP has OBJNR field which is not the same as KOSTL in CSKS.
    Anyway, I'd suggest you using not the join between tables, but one of standard logical databases SAP provides. For cost centres, you can use CIK.

  • S_ALR_87013611 - Cost center: Actual/Plan/Variance selection report - outpu

    Hello all,
    when running the report,it can be seen in SAP screen by cost groups and by cost elements.
    The problem is that when user tries to save report in local file, then it is not able to see cost center distribution. User can only see cost elements amounts.
    is there a way we can save on a local file cost groups as well?
    Thanks in advance for letting me know
    regards

    Hi,
    Look for data source 0CO_OM_CCA_1 ( Cost Centers: Costs and Allocations ) ..it will give you the plan / actual /commitment amounts & qty.
    Link is http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8d/1f383fe58d5900e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

  • Locking Plan indicator in Cost Center

    CO Experts,
    I checked the Lock indicator in KS02 for the following
    Plan Primary Costs
    Plan Secondary Costs
    System not allowing KP06 , but still allows me to do Activity Planning ( KP26). Why?
    Thanks
    psconsultant

    Hi,
    u201CLock Indicator for Plan Secondary Costsu201D and Lock Indicator for Plan Primary Costsu201D
    If you select this indicator in Cost Center Master data, you cannot plan any secondary/primary costs on the affected cost center from this time.
    The indicator normally locks the cost center only against debits with secondary costs in the plan. However, you can still credit the cost center in the plan.
    In T-code-KP06-Cost Center Activity Input planning, we are debiting the cost center .
    Through  T-code-KP26- Cost Center/Activity Output Planning, we are CREDITING the cost center. So this indicators will not affect  the planning function of T-code-KP26.

  • Report Painter- How to make cost center report for Jun07-Jul08 ?

    Hi Experts,
    I need to make a P&L (Actual/ Plan) report for Jun 07 - Jul 08 by using Report Painter, but I'm having difficulty to make column for the next year period (2008) and some other things.
    We are using K4 Fiscal Year Variant in ECC 6.0.
    The layout is somehow like this:
    Header : Cost Center
                 Actual/Plan Report
                 June 2007 to July 2008
    Body:
    Cost Element     |   Total Actual   |   Total Plan |  Actual  June | Plan June .................Actual July | Plan July    
    xxxx       
    xxxx
    Account Group (total)
    xxxx
    xxxx
    Account Group (total)
    Grand Total  
    How to:
    a. make the header "June 2007 to July 2008" ?
    b. make the selection screen to provide parameter for June 2007 to July 2008? (e.g.: period 6 fiscal year 2007 to period 7 fiscal year 2008)
    c. provide layout (rows and columns) as described above? it should provide detail cost elements and also calculate it as the total per account group, then finally the Grand Total for all of account groups. 
    Thank you before,
    -=Meila.S=-

    Hi,
    1. Put Year and Month as your General Selection parameters
    2. In the label of the fields, if you put the parameter name with & before, it will display the value
    3. If you put cost element in General selection, it will come with a group, and when you selecting the group, the report does the sub-totals automatically.

  • Cost Center Assessment - cost element type 42

    Hi dear All,
    I got issues running KSU5 to allocate planned costs under cost element type 42. we were expecting that all planned costs (primary and secondary(cost element type 42)) could be allocated by credit cost center (actual). only primary costs are being allocated.
    Scenario:
    cost center planning (kp06) 1000 currencies in primary cost element in cost center A
    running planning assessment - KSUB: cycle uses assessment cost element (type 42): sender cost center A, receiver cost center B (all planned values). assessment cyles posts 1000 currencies from CC A to cost center B
    planning in cost center B (primary cost elements through kp06, 500 currencies) total planning 1000 from previous assessment  with CE type 42, and 500 from cc planning in a primari CE.
    by the period end closing, tcode KSU5 (allocation actual) is running. new cycle created, based on planned values (origini not actual, but planned amounts).
    we were expecting to allocate 1500 currencies from cost center B to cost center C (using 100% and through assessment cost element)).
    result: credit actual cost center B = 500 currencies debit actual cost center C = 500 currencies.
    1000 currencies pending on cost center B (planned).
    do you know why SAP is not allocating the 1000? even if those 1000 were planned in cost center B by assessement, a new allocation cycle should be able to post them or not?
    thank you for your outcome.

    Hi dear Ajay, thank you for your answer.
    first, I understand the difference between KSUB and KSU5, in the defined scenario, we have both. planned values, become actual with the MEC activities. business definition.
    regarding the cycle, I have setup assessment cost element so we can get all planned lines posted as 1.
    On sender tab I have only the cost center. no cost element defined.
    receiver its cost center.
    furthermore, i've not setup allocation structure, so all cost elements should be allow, there is no restriction on this.
    the only difference is: planned costs which their origin is already an assessment are not being assessed again.
    I can show you the print screens with cycles setup if it helps
    best regards

  • Cost center Reporting issue

    Hi Experts,
    When I'm taking a report for Cost center accounting under path:
    Accounting-Controlling- Cost centers- Information system- Report selection- Cost center accounting -Plan/Actual comparisons- Additional characteristics- Area: Statistical key figures.
    Data I key in the selection screen of report is: Controlling area, Fiscal year 2011, From period:2- To period: 2.
    When the report was taken in May 2011, the figure against a cost center ACTUAL was 166,000kg.
    But, when I take the report now for May 2011, the figure against this same cost center is showing -3416,600kg.
    The Plan and actual against all other cost centers appears correct for the report taken in May 2011 and currently for the month of May 2011.
    What could be the reson for this? How can I further investigate on this?Should I compare any mpre reports?
    Any ideas appreciated!!
    Thanks

    Hi Surendra,
    The situation is not very clear - would help if you can provide more details.
    One possible reason might be the classification by period you are using in the second report - have you checked the InfoCube data?
    Do a list cube on the underlying data target (since you use data target's' I am assuming it is a MultiProvider) and put in exactly the same selections as you use in the second query and see if it returns proper data.

    Nikhil

  • Slow drilling into cost center reports - S_ALR_87013611

    Hi All,
    When drilling into cost center report S_ALR_87013611 to view cost center actual line items experiencing extreme slowness before it brings up the actual line items (which display in transaction KSB1).  Trying to display only one cost element with a few lines in one period for one cost center. The sceen hangs up and takes long execution time to display actual output.
    However, if we launch another session and run KSB1 it runs pretty fast.
    What could be the reason of this slow performance. Checked trace and it doesn't show large execution cost for any SQL statements.
    thanks
    any

    Hi Anya,
    Since we are deling here with a standard report did you check OSS?  This is one note which could be applicable (although it mentions performance problems for a range of cost center while you indicate a single CC).
    [Note 840414 - KSB1: Long runtimes when report is called|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=840414]
    It is worth checking out.

    Hi Kumar,
    I have done below steps to my CC Report to show by period wise(individual columns Jan, Feb, so..on) cost center report:
    Step 1: used Library 1VK, Table CCSS in GRR1.
    Step 2: Created 12 individuals columns starting from Jan to Dec..
    Step 3: Created 12 formula variables(internal Variables) for 12 periods..(becoz if I hardcoded system is deriving all the  
                 periods)..
               a) created Internal value Variable ZVAR(defaualt 01),ZAR1(default 02),ZAR2 (default 03)...this is for to create fomula
                   variables.
               b) for period 1(jan) formula variable  "IF '&ZVAR'>= 1 THEN 1 ELSE 017" internal variable table:CCSS,field:PERBL
               c) for period 2(feb) IF '&ZVA1'>= 2 THEN 2 ELSE 017 like wise created 12 variables for 12 periods
    Step 4: above the formula variables I have selected check box as variable but not coming on selection screen, I need in
                selection screen from period to period for this I have created one more hide column and given period vairable "1PERIK"
               now its coming on the selection screen but values are not populating based on by selection criteria..
    Note: If I slect 1-4 periods it should show for only Jan,Feb, Mar & April  and individually..
    Please sugget above my formula is correct or not!!  appreciate your valuable suggesion!

  • Table for cost center plan/actual data

    Hello gurus,
            What are the tables to get for cost center wise plan/ actual data? The data which was entered through KP06 was sitting in whcih table?
    regds
    ramachandra

    Hello Ramachandra,
    Actual and Plan Data can be found in COVP view.
    1) For Actuals, you should use the values 04 and 11 to the field WRTTP;
    2) For Plans, you should use the values 01 and 10 to the field WRTTP.
    If you need to get the totals, you should use tables COSP and COSS.
    Hope this help you.
    Cheers,
    Daniel.
