Cost center by default in a sales order

Hi,
I would like to put a cost center by default in a sales order.
Because the users forget often to fill this field, that' s why I would like to complete this field automatically.
I have found a point of customizing with OVZ3 but I have no result.
Any body have an idea?
Thank you
Regards
Kari

Kindly use the Incompletnet procedure for making a filed mandatory. Without completion of this field the sales order can not be saved. Goto OVA2 and assign the value cost center at header level in incompletness process. Then go to VUA2 and assigne it to your sales order.
I think this will help you

Cost Center and GL account in Sales Order / Delivery

I have a requirement where we want user to specify what cost center and GL account should be used while posting goods issue.
Currently GL account and Cost Center is automatically determined based on OBYC configuration.
Is there a way user can populate Cost center and GL account at Sales order or Delivery document level and what ever they have specified will be used for Posting Goods Issue.
If user doesnt specify anything then standard OBYC determination should take place.
I looked at OVF3 transaction which can default cost center (though no GL account) but its not useful in our requirement.
I also looked at OKB9 transaction but not sure if we can use it either.
Again we want user to enter Cost center and GL account at either SO or Delivery document level and then that should be used for Post goods issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
In delivery under tab GOODS MOVEMENT DATA
After valuation type column COST CENTER & G/L Account column available
Now with the help of FI consultant make it change mode so user can maintain also I observe that if delivery created without reference to order then that fields are in change mode means user cn maintain data for this but if with reference to order it is disable mode
Check in t-code OMJJ FIELD SELECTION FOR MOVEMENT TYPE
Put movement 601
Then select movement type and double click on filed selection (from 201)
Then go to additional account assignment and for cost centre make it optional or requirement
or Else under field selection enjoy for movement type 602 indsert field KONT0 and KOSTL and check
If this can not work there is option field selection for G/L account check that with FI

Account-based COPA and having Cost Center as Real Object in Sales Order

Hi,
We have recently activated account-based COPA and in our SO, we realized the Profitability Segment being populated- that is not a problem in normal scenarios.
However, in some cases, we would like to charge to a cost center instead of COPA. We have tried the 2 ways mentioned in the forum/on the web to include Cost Center in Sales Order:
1. Go to OVF3 t-code and configure a default cost center for the order reason
2. Change the SD Document Category under 'Define Sales Document Types' to 'I- Order w/o charge'.
However both ways only open the Cost center field but still populates the COPA. At accounting entries, cost center will become a statistical object and COPA, the real object- which is not what we want.
Is there a way to stop the auto-populating of Profitabiltiy Segment in SO when cost center is being entered?
Thanks very much in advance for any suggestions.
Regards,
Huimin

Solved by myself, with help of OSS Note: 44381 - Profitability Segment Not Required in SD Postings. Have a CO substitution rule to clear away the Profitability Segment number based on certain conditions. Thanks!

Assign Cost Center for Internal Consumption in Sales Order

Dear Experts,
I have a scenario is that Marketing Manager want to give a gift to his customer, the expense of this gift will be charged to Marketing Department. As the law, the invoice of this gift is required with the posting as below:
Dr Expense acc 5000 USD
Cr Revenue acc 5000 USD
(Assume that there is no tax)
I create a Sales Order with the Product is the Gift that will give to customer, and I also assign the Cost Center as Marketing Department. The problem is when I generate the billing document from this Sales Order, the system throw the error: Cost Center XYZ (Marketing Department) is not allowed posting revenue. This error happen because I don't want to post revenue to Cost Center, I want only Expense will be posted to Cost Center. But because I assigned Cost Center in header of Sales Order, system will post both revenue an expense to this CO object. Now what I want to do is post Expense to Cost Center, revenue to Profit Segment. Is it possible and what I need to do if it is possible?

Truc Nguyen

Activate the FIELD Cost Center while issuing the Material to Order by 261

Dear All,
How to activate the FIELD Cost Center while issuing the material againest Order IN MB1A?
Thanks and regards,
Satyajit

Hi all,
I'm having problems with activating the cost center field too. I've already checked OMBW and OMJJ. For OMJJ, cost center field was required. For OMBW, Cost Center field was Supressed. However, when I checked the Change Logs, no changes were performed since last year. The user who raised this issue had the cost center field activated until December 1, 2008 but now it's deactiavted. So I don't think it's OMBW responsible for this since there was no change since last year.
Please share your knowledge on this.
Thanks!

Plan costs calculation during results analysis of sales order

Hi Experts,
I am in process of implementing sales order costing. I am facing a problem during result analysis with plan costs data.
We have a sales order for which production order is generated. Cost object is sales order.
Say, sales order cost estimate which is the plan costs --> is $ 1000 (which includes prod order COGM of $ 600) (So remaining sales and admin costs are $ 400)
Plan cost of production order is $ 550 (as per production order cost analysis report)
While calculating the result analysis for sales order, system is calculating the plan costs data as $ 1000 + $ 550 = $ 1550
As a result, I feel plan costs data during result analysis is over calculated.
I feel either plan costs should be $ 1000 (as it already includes COGM part)
or
$ 950 which is (plan cost of production order $ 550 + sales and admin costs of $ 400)
Could some one explain me why result analysis shows plan costs data as $ 1500 and if I need to rectify how can I do so.
Thanks,
GAN

Any suggestions please.

How to identify Sale Order costing is required for Items in Sales Order

Howstandard cos estimate*w to identify Sale Order costing is required for Items in Sales Order?
On which criteria we can conclude Sale Order Costing is reqd ?
? * means what and wat is the purpose and how to chk for the Item in Sales Order, either it is required or not**.

Hi Dharamveer,
The best way is to make the order qty is equal to the quantity delivered. This way, when some one looks at this order in future - they think that the order was for X and the delivery was for X qty is completed. They will not know the background of the issue unless they go through change log. Even in change log, they see that the Ord qty was adjusted, but may not understand why?
The good practice is to make order qty equal to already delivered qty.
Create a new line for the remaining qty and reject the same with appropriate reason for rejection. This way, any one can understand the background , the reason for rejection easily. Hope it helps !

GR for production order post to cost center and not to the production order

Hi all,
when we post the goods receipt for the finished product against the production order (mov. type 101), the order is not credited with the corresponding stock value. Instead of this, the value accounts to a cost center.
We specified this cost center in OKB9 (Default account assignment), because if not, we get an error when posting the goods receipt cause of lacking accounting object.
I can't see why the system does not credit the production order?
Any ideas?
Thanks for your time
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
This is the first time i am coming across an issue like this.
neverthless from a logical front,
1. Remove Cost center as a valid receiver in Settlement Profile.
2. Your OKB9 setting are pretty much good. No need to worry about it. Becasue, OKB9 only will work if the system doesn't identify any other cost object. In this case Production Order is an automatic cost object which system should have taken.
3. Check the Settlement rule when you have created Production Order. It should have been MAT.
4. I hope you are creating Production Order with Material (using CO01 and not CO07)
5. Make sure in OPL8, the default rule in controlling tab is PP1.
Once all these are fine, i do not see any reason why you will get your probelm.
Please check and revert back to me if the problem still persists.
Best Regards

How to make Cost Center display/default at expense level in PR05

Dear Friends
I've a requirement in Travel Mgt where in PR05 at each expense line item level i need cost center to be displayed by default as 100%. Is there any possibility at the config level or Exit level to make it default.
Currently we are using a Exit: ZXTRVU03 for Cost center & Business area validation. where my client has given us a cost center ranges to make business area as default explicitly only for Travel Mgt. for ex: we have a Cost center range as 74001 - 74018 for this range the default business area for Travel Mgt must be 101 and for HR & FI it can be 101-110 any range. Based on that we have written a program using the Exit ZXTRVU03. Now the problem we are facing is in Master data the employee is falling under the above mentioned costcenter and HR has given a business area which falls under 101-110 (take example as 105)
Now the issue here is, based on the Master data, when we incur any expense in PR05, the Business area 105is coming by default for any of the expense. Now as per my client, this is wrong. It must be 101 at any cause. So, based on that we have made an enhancement that if user changes the Cost distribution to 100% or make the cost distribution with splits like 50% with home cost center & 50% with another cost center then only our enhancement gets triggered. But user is not satisfied with the solution provided, as we cannot expect users to change the cost distribution unless there is a split. So we are planning to pass a value in the cost distribution field as 100% ( as in std the field itself is blank, but still it denotes as 100%)
I hope the above screenshot makes it clear. Now instead of manally entering 100% to make the enhancement trigger, is there any possible solution where I pass the value as default 100% to make users life easier.
Note: we are not maintaining IT0017 for cost center, company code, Business area as we are reading this data through Master data.
Kindly provide me your valuable solutions.
Cheers

Hi Parakala,

How to setup the default warehouse in Sales Order Lines

I have 3 organizations in one OU like A, B, C.
and I created a new sales order type for A, the shipping from warehouse is also setup C, but when I create SO, in order lines, the default warehose is A, how to change to C?
thanks
Fangquan

You can write a simple pl/sql logic to get the correct org id. I am assuming that you have two responsibilities in the same operating unit and one should default with A and one should default with C. Both use the same order type.
When the resp that is responsible for org A, will have org A from order type.
For resp that is responsible for org C, you can create a pl/sql logic where you read the current responsibility using fnd_profile.value('RESP_ID'). If the resp_id is responsible for C then return organization_id of C.
You can find example code for order line entity for attribute tax code.
Let me know if you need anymore info.
Thanks

Cost of Inventory for Special Stock- (Sales Order Stock)

Dear All,
We manufactures "x" materail under Make to Stock and Make to Order Scenarios. We carried the standard cost estimate through CK11N and released through CK24N. There is a value of "X". Also we carried the sales order cost estimate that is value "Y". But we have observed the inventory value updated during confirmation of the production is at "Z" value. We have identified this Z value is the value of special stock previous periods.
I would like to know the procedure of valuation of inventory under scenarios
Regards
Anilkumar

Hi,
thanks for your info.
Can i say the changes will be done for those special stock.?
Actually my problem is related to a Return Sales order process where we need to change the MAP before DO and GI, otherwise the Material document would not capture the correct MAP during GI.
and the solution from the senior is select the variance "special stock -Sales order" and enter the sales doc# in MR21.
The problem that we are not yet having any special stock for this return Sales order, but this MR21 works for us and after that, the material document is able to capture the correct MAP.
Any idea what or where the MR21 is updating for the "Special Stock-Sales order" if we don't have any Sales order stock for the paticular sales document?
