  • 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.

  • 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.
    Thanks and Best regards,

    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

  • 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.
    thanks,

  • Cost Center, Work Center and Profit Center

    Hi ALL,
    Can any one please explain me the concept of Cost Center, Work Center and Profit Center.
    And where and when do I assign the cost center???
    Amit

    Hi Check the following "
    Cost centers represent areas of responsibility where costs are incurred or where responsibility for costs may be assigned.  They represent the smallest unit of responsibility within the organizational structure of an enterprise.
    A cost center can be pictured as a ‘cost bucket’ such as a department, product line, production stage or geographical area. 
    An unlimited number of cost centers may be created.
    All cost centers within on controlling area have to be assigned to a cost center hierarchy (standard hierarchy).
    Costs originally posted to one cost center may be distributed and assessed to one or more other cost centers using allocations.
    How are costs assigned/posted to a cost center?
    External financial accounting documents created in FI, AM or MM that post to a G/L expense account can be configured to require a cost center assignment be entered at the time of transaction entry.  The system automatically creates a parallel CO document that posts to the indicated cost center.
    Cost elements master records can be configured to be posted to a certain cost center (automatic account assignment).
    In addition, other non-financial activity (i.e., direct labor hours) may be posted directly to cost centers from within CO or via other modules such as PP  or HR

  • RE - Change profit center and cost center after LO activated

    Hi ppl, One question. Is there any harm if we change the profit center and cost center of the business entity, building, rental unit only after the lease out has been activated?

    No need to change the cost center, as you want to have valid from date as 01.10.2010.
    Having profit center before that date is not an issue and does not have any negative impact.

    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,

  • 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 in different collumns

    Dear all,
    I developed a report painter where the lead collumn has cost element and cost center. When I run the report it shows at the same collumn the cost centers and in a different line the cost element totalizing the amount of each cost center. So the report shows for each cost element the cost centers posted with this cost element. The report show like below:
    |-------
    Cost center A    | 100
    Coste center B  | 200
    |-------
    Cost element xxx - 300
    The problem is: How can I make the Cost element in a separate column ? Ex:
    Cost element xxx  |  Cost center A  | 100
    Cost element xxx  |  Cost center B  | 200
    Cost element xxx - 300 (In fact I don''t need the total)
    I need cost element and cost centers in different collumns to allow export it for other application..
    Regards

    Hi
    In report painter report we have only one lead column so we cannot have cost centers and cost elements in two different columns.Instead we can use the functionality of variation.Give the cost center in general data selection screen and select the variation functionality.So that cost centers are displayed on the left side of the report as hirearchy and only cost elements are only displayed in lead column.
    Thanks
