Cost Center code proposed by system

Hi Friends,
Is there any option that system propose sequential internal code at the time of cost center creation?
Now you are aware if you create cost center through KS01 you can put anything for cost center code. Do you don't think some control should be there like GL master creation?

Hi
If you are usng BW - better develop the report from there... Else, ABAP is the only solution
Note that there is no correlation between Plant & Cost center except work center... Hence, Plant as an Input parameter in a cost center report is not possible.... Thats why, people prefer to have a cost center nomenclature that reflects the Plant No as well i.e. say 1st 4 chars of a Cost center name can resemble plant

How to hide parent cost center code in the costing LOV

Dear Gurus,
I have a very peculiar issue. I want to hide parent cost center code that appears in the costing LOV of employee in the others tab. Can any body help me out on this one?
Regards,
Muhammad Noman Shafique

Hi,
I do not have the exact steps for form personalization as I am not good in this :-(
But regarding the costing segment (removal from all pages) you can follow below steps:-
1. Navigate to Sysadmin --> Application --> Flexfield --> Segments
2. Search for title "Cost Allocation Flexfield"
3. Now click on teh code that is attahed with your business group and then click in segments.
4. You will see all the segments defiened for the costing.
NOTE: If you want to disable one of them uncheck the "Freeze Flexfield Definition" in the "Key Flexfield Segments" window. But do remember that it will affect all your costing and you wont be able to select the disabled costing segments in any other window (Element Entries, Assignemnt, Organization, Element link and Payroll)

Report FGI0-Cost center Code

Hi,
I am using the TS FGI0 to see the report '0SAPBLNC-01' with the opction 'object list' (I use NewGL). I modified the report (TS FGI2) copying the standard and adding the characteristic 'cost center', but the report shows only the text of the cost center, not the field 'KOSTL'. I also need to see the code of the cost center field 'KOSTL', like the division characteristic (text and code). Any idea?
Thanks,
Cecilia

Hi
The object list is designed as such for these reports...
If you execute in Drilldown option, Once you execute the report, Click on SETTINGS > Char Display... Choose Key & Name
However, see note Note 991753 - No description for Cost Element in New GL Drilldown, if it helps

Cost center integration with HR - logical system for CRT inconsistent

Hi there,
we are distributing Cost centers from our SAP ERP system to another SAP HR system via ALE [COSMAS01 basic type].
The cost center created in target system contains information about source system logical system name - table CSKS, field LOGSYSTEM.
This is causing problems in Travel Managment in SAP HR system, where we get the error: Logical system for CTR inconsistent.
Cost centers created/changed in HR system does not contain any value in CSKS-LOGSYSTEM field and work fine.
Any ideas how to solve this issue?
For now to fix the issue, user needs to do a phony change in SAP HR system to get rid of original LOGSYSTEM value.
I am thinking about removing field E1CSKSM-LOGSYSTEM from COSMAS IDoc but I gues there must be simpler soloution.
Thanks for your advices,
Igor

Igor :
I think this has something to do with matching logical system with controlling area in TKA01. Another option for cc's logical system to have no values when outbound ALE is to config V_TKA01_ALE (so it will be transported to the system that has cc ALE to other systems) to have field 'ALE Distribution Method' blank (No distribution to other system).
This way, when SAP is creating outbound idoc for COSMAS, field CSKS-logicalsystem will not be populated (logic is in SAP 'MASTERIDOC_CREATE_COSMAS' , around line 86).

Good Issue - Cost Center & Activity Code

Hi All,
I've a problem when I creating Good Issue using SDK SAP2007, I set "Cost Center" (CostingCode) dan "Activity Code" (CostingCode2).
When I run the code, and check the result in SBO2007 Good Issue, the "Cost Center" (CostingCode) dan "Activity Code" (CostingCode2) was in the "DistrRule" column not in the "Cost Center code" and "activity code" column, is this normal ? how to insert both data into the right column ?
This is my code:
   Public Function uf_SAP_GoodIssue(ByVal dtTable As DataTable, ByVal p_cardCode As String, ByVal p_Date As Date, ByVal p_priceList As Integer) As String
        Dim lngErr As Long
        Dim strMsg As String = ""
        Dim sboStockOut As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
        sboStockOut = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oInventoryGenExit)
        sboStockOut.DocDueDate = CDate(p_Date)
        sboStockOut.DocDate = CDate(p_Date)
        sboStockOut.PaymentGroupCode = Trim(p_priceList)
        sboStockOut.CardCode = Trim(p_cardCode)
        Dim i As Integer
        For i = 0 To dtTable.Rows.Count - 1
            If i <> 0 Then
                sboStockOut.Lines.Add()
            End If
            sboStockOut.Lines.AccountCode = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("AccountCode"))
            sboStockOut.Lines.CostingCode = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("CostCenter"))
            sboStockOut.Lines.CostingCode2 = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("ActivityCode"))
            'sboStockOut.Lines.CostingCode3 = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("PersonnelNo"))
            'sboStockOut.Lines. = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("ActivityCode"))
            sboStockOut.Lines.ItemCode = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("ItemCode"))
            sboStockOut.Lines.Quantity = CDbl(dtTable.Rows(i)("qty"))
            'sboStockOut.Lines.Price = 500
            sboStockOut.Lines.WarehouseCode = Trim(dtTable.Rows(i)("WarehouseCode"))
        Next
        lngErr = sboStockOut.Add
        If lngErr <> 0 Then
            Call oCompany.GetLastError(lngErr, strMsg)
            Return "Found error:" + Str(lngErr) + "," + strMsg
            'Return "Failed to issue Stock." & lngErr

        If lngErr <> 0 Then
            Return "Found error:" + Str(lngErr) + "," + strMsg
        End If
        Return ""
    End Function

Revenue Posting to Cost Center & Pforfitibility Segment (Object Numbers)

Dear All,
I have tested a scnario, i.e., Can we post Revenue to the Cost Center?
1st Case:- I tried to post Revenue to Cost Center & it was done. The Cost Center was updated Stastical Posting. ( Here i had entered Cost Center Manually, no other object was entered except Cost Cneter)
2nd Case :- I have done the same way but i have entered PSG manually.
But here my doubt is : in COEP Table both documents were updated Object Number AOXXXXXXXXXX10610. Which is Recon Object Type. In 2nd case i have entered PSG but in 1st case i have entered only one Cost Center but how the system was updated the CO Object Number AOXXXXXXXXXX10610
Regards

Hi,
As per note 41103 under point 6, revenues posted to cost centers will only be statistical. The category types 11 and 12 are revenue based cost elements.
As cost centers can carry revenues statistically only, the system has to create a reconciliation object automatically. It is just a generated object (containing charactersistics like company code, plant, business area, profit center,...) and this object is necessary to create as the real posting must be made. Otherwise, CO and FI would get out of sync.
If only costing based COPA is active reconciliation object ("REO") is posted to if there is no real account assignment for the revenues (no CO-PA object/no revenue order or any other object which can carry revenues->please see note 106968).
Thanks & Regards

Cost Center Budget-Cost element wise

Dear SAP Gurus,
My client needs to create cost center budgets cost element wise. For e.g. Salary paid (code 430000) in Development Cost center (code 9901).
We now use KPZ2 to create cost center budgets and KP06 for cost element planning. Kindly guide.
Regards,
Siva

Hi Ramesh,
Thank you for the reply. I did suggest them to use KP06 but they require some sort of validation when posting an expense (cost element) to and cost center.
For e.g. If the travel budget for Marketing cost center is $1000, they need the system to prevent posting once that amount is exceeded.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Regards,
Siva

Change of Business Area to Cost Center (my first thread , please help)

Hi Everybody i'm Charmaine Leena Martin freshly certified FICO consultant , this is my first thread i'm posting, please help me with the same.
A wrong business area has been assigned to a cost center and postings have taken place in the same.
while using t-code KS02: change cost center , for rectifying the business area , i get the following error:
"Field change business area is not possible (transaction data exists)"
so i've created a new cost center and assigned it the right business
and using t-code kb61 : i have posted the documents to the new cost center
at that time system generates a co-document automatically:
But the accounting document of which transfer postings have taken place still shows old business area and cost center
Please let me know why is it so ,
and what has to be done with the CO document that gets posted automatically
and is there any other way out of changing the business area without creation of new cost center
Moderator: Please, search before posting

Hi Leena
Welcome to SDN
Do KB11N to post the cost back to the Wrong cost center
Do an FI Posting again Dr the Correct new cost center and Cr the Old wrong cost center
This will match both FI and CO

Budgetting for Cost Center

Hi
Can you please inform me whether its possible to stop the posting in a cost center after it has exceeded the budget, like we do it for internal orders, if yes then kindly infrom me the way (transaction codes) by which we could do that.
Regards
Ash

One alternative way if you mandatorily require the Cost Center not to be posted is:
1. Create an internal order with same budget amount as the cost center.
2. Create a substitution in order that once this cost center is input the system substitutes internal order you created. This happens without the knowledge of the user.
This is effectively making your cost center not to be posted beyond the budgeted amount since system does not allow to post:
1. if amount exceeds internal order budget amount, and
2. the Cost center can only be posted if internal order has enough room.
This can be your posible alternative if you don't get a better solution than this.

Problem while changing Business Area in Cost Center Master Data

I am having a problem while changing the Business area in cost center master data, the system does not allow to change the business area due to the following reasons;
1. The transactional data already exists for that cost center
2. The desired date required to be changed, falls between analysis period 01.01.2000 to 31.12.2999
Can anyone help me in order to reslove this issue
Thanking in anticipation
Edited by: Arshad Iqbal on May 24, 2010 2:10 PM

Dear Dejan !!
Thanks a lot for resolving my problem actaully i have tested the scenario in Testing Server by changing the fiscal year and the system allowed to change the business area before any transactional data posted.
Thanks Once Again

Document change/display - Profit Center / Cost center name

Hi,
We have a requirement where client wants to display the profit center and cost center names (short or long) when displaying or changing a parked or a posted document. As we all know SAP shows only the profit center and cost center code and not the description during the document display. After all the deliberations, this seems to be an important piece of information while posting a parked document or even viewing it as a posted document.
What are our options?
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Subodh

Thanks for your response Tamim.
Profit center / cost center naming is following a different convention and we are in a roll out phase, therefore we can't think of first item.
About match code, the requirement is not so much during the posting but primarily while releasing the parked document or viewing the parked / posted document - they want to see the description along side profit / cost center.
I was looking for clues on any utilities / enhancements / BTE that I may use to bring extra fields during document display.

Subodh

Cost center wise budget

Dear Sap gurus,
Could you please cost center wise budget confuration and availabulity control in system .
purchase value 100000 Name is Cost center1 if i raise of purchase order (Relevant account assignment items) Cost center given then the system should not allowed based on the po with commitment value accross 100000 and we want decrease the value once invoice is released in like 100000- 10000= 90000 .

Hi,
This issue has been answered several times: you do not have a budget control on cost centres, but you can do a workaround.
a) create statistical ordersand assign them to relevant cost centres
b) budget those orders
c) create a validation in CO not allowing posting to the cost centres without providing internal order
Thus, you will have a budget control on cost centre level.

Eli

THR10 - Cost Center Assignment on Job

Hi,
I am going through THR - 10 manual these days. I've a query that really amazed me therefore I am putting this question if any of you have satisfactory answer. On page no. 292 of THR-10 (The Human Resources Administration) manual, there is written the following sentence.
To depict your enterprise's Cost Center hierarchy in the system, you link the cost centers to the relevant organizational units. You can also link the cost centers to jobs and positions.
As per my knowledge, we can only assign cost centers to organization units, positions, and some other objects too but cannot assign cost center to JOB.
I will be very gratefull if any of you "SAP GURU" can guide me through.
Thanks,

Hi,
Thanks for your replies Experts :).
I've gone through certain customization in order check if there might be any possibility, if a job can be assigned a cost center and if that job is assigend to any position from which you have'nt assigned any cost center through account assignment tab. I created additional relationship for object type C (Job) with K (Cost Center) and defining Time Constraint 2. After doing this, I assigned a cost center to job using newly created relationship, and assigned that job to the position with no center assigned. Finally i assigned an employee with that position to check if IT0001 inherits the cost center from the position which was inter related with that job with assigned cost center, but it did not worked.
So i think it's just a mistake SAP AG has made.
Anyways thank you all for your replies
