Cost center field is mandatory for PO

hi all,,
how can I make cost center field as a mandatory field while creating PR or PO???
THANKS YOU,

Hi,
Normally all the material postings will be done to the balance sheet accounts any subsequent material consumption will be charged to the cost center.
In case any direct consumption or non-stock PO , PO should have account assignment category 'K' then system will expect (mandatory) cost center on it.
My question to you , why you need cost center is mandatory? as the standard sap design is having cost center mandatory in case of non-stock (services) or direct consumption.

Converting cost center field from mandatory to optional in Tcode CRC1

Dear Experts,
I'm a PP consultant & facing a problem regarding cost center .I'm trying to test a scenario into test server where trying to create a new resource(work center) via tcode CRC1(PP-PI).
In the last screen (Costing), system is asking for the cost center which somehow couldn't be created.
Now system is not allowing to complete the resource cretaion without entering cost center(as it is maintained as mandatory field).
I want to change this setting of cost center from mandatory to optional for the sake of completeing the process (as it is being done into testing server only)
Pls let me know the way by which i can convert this mandatory entry of cost center int Optional one.
Thanks in advance ....

Hi,
To add to what Ajay has said:
When you create a work center you are lead through various screens, the sequence depends on the work center category. You navigate with Next screen and Previous screen or, if you do not want to enter required data, skip."

Department Field in the Cost Center as a mandatory from optional.

Hi,
I need to make Department field in the Cost Center as a mandatory from Optional.
Kindly suggest on making mandatory to Department field in the Cost Center.

Anand Sheelavant,

Anand,
Go to IMG General settings and configure new transaction fields. Select the transaction codes to be adjusted, I think you should use KS01 (Creat Cost Center) and KS02 (Modify CostCenter) and create new transaction variants where deparment field is mandatory. Then use these newly created transactions variants to substitute the standard ones by assigning/activating them to transaction codes, KS01 and KS02.
Hope this solve your issue.

Profit center field is mandatory

Dear friends,
How can I make profit center field is mandatory in Cost center master?

Hi,
if profit-center acounting is active I guess profit-center is a required entry in cost center master. If not use enhancement COOMKS02 to check if profit center is maintained during creation/changing of cost centers.
Best regards, Christian

Cost center fields

Hi Sap Gurus,
how to restrict the cost center fields it means whether it is required r optional r suppress ( i need business area optional & Department optional and ds fields where to control to the screen layout of cost center)any one can help me. ds is my mail id:[email protected]

Dear Prakash,
It is not possible in standard to customize the tabs/fields available
in cost center master data.
There are only two possible ways:
-to add customer own fields use enhancements
EXIT_SAPLKMA1_001 or EXIT_SAPLKMA1_002
-to have fields for example as mandatory You have to create a
transaction variant of KS01 / KS02. You can maintain transaction
variants in transaction SHD0.

Hide/Suppress Cost center field in MIGO and MB1A for movement types 551&552

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me how to suppress or hide the cost center field in MIGO or MB1A for movement types 551 and 552?
I did below settings and it worked fine for only MB1A and for MIGO still it is showing cost center field.
IMG > Materials Management > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory >Goods Issue/Transfer posting > Define screen layout > select movement type to change the option.
Also I did gothrough the settings for Enjoy transaction (MIGO) there we have only option to make fields either "Required entry" or "Optional entry" and we don't have an option to hide/suppress.
Please advise or help me .
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Praveen

Hi
The cost center field is a required field in mvt type 551 as you are scrapping materials, some cost center will need to take the cost of this operation.
Anyway, you first need to make the field as optional for example, before you move.
One option is that you create a screen variant in Tcode SHD0 for MB1A, where 551 is setup as constant (with content) , and mark Cost center as invisible and assign this screen variant to a transaction in SE93.

Cost Center Field on Billable Sales Orders

On the Sales Header>Account Assignment tab of a sales order the Cost Center field allow entries. We use this for free order, but do not want it used for billable, and we have trouble from time to time with users entering in a Cost Center, thinking they used the right free order type. The problem is we are not aware there is a problem until Goods Issue time (and alot of the time the shipment has already left the building). They get a message like, Account Determination for entry COAS GBB EQPT VAY 7920 not possible. What we would like to know is can there be a warning on a billable order at entry time so they can remove, or is it possible to make the field not editable?

May be you can have a different order type for billable and control the Order Reason field as non-editable via sale order user exit.
Perhaps, you can try with sale order User exits in the program MV45AFZZ - USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION

PR creation for 'F" in ME51N, ME52n, the cost center field exit getactivate

Dear Gurus,
We have a Cost center Field exit activation, meaning when a PR is generated, the system will validate only for his department cost center. Its working fine
The issue, when we create PR through ME51n or me52n for Acct Assign "F" here we are going to enter only Work order number and GL number, not cost center. Still this field exit has activation, here the same error message popup, which suppose not to be.
So in MM configuration, i have disabled Cost center field for acct assignment "F".
Now when i create a PR for F, for single account assignment, the system will alllow, but if i want to distribute the qty to different work order, the system goes for validation for cost center field exit.
How to resolve for multiple assignment, how to deactivate the Cost center field exit for this case, its woking fine of Single account assignment (after disable the cost center field for Account Assignment "F")
Please help me out or any way to do this?
Regards

Cross check you have Cost Center field is Hidden for Account Assignment Category A (Asset) in t.code:OME9. Now change Cost Center field as Display for Account Assignment Category A and save.
Now create a new PO with Account Assignment Category A and find the difference how Cost Center appearing in your PO in “Account Assignment” TAB.

GL account and cost center field appearing for Goods issue movt type 201

Hi SAP Gurus
We are trying to post goods issue in ecc6 . The problem is that the GL Account and cost center fields are available fields .The cost center field is logical but why the GL account field is avaiable .
How we can grey out the same field as it is going to be picked up from the valuation class setting in GBB - VBR ? Any ideas
Regards
Hitesh

Hi Ravi
You think that its ok we have to input the cost center .
But if you allow the users to input the GL then you are overriding the whole purpose of defining the valuation class and offsetting entries ? What is your opinion ?When you input the material in the goods issue screen the offsetting entry needs to be picked from the GBB -VBR .Although even if you do not enter the GL the system posts the Godds issue document .But from the control perspective this needs to be suppressed .
What do you think ?
I have also posted the same in Logistics forum .
Once again many thanks for your help .In case you find some solution this would be of great help

Cost Center field not active

Dear Friends
I have a situation where when I try to hire a person, the cost center field is not active. I have checked in screen modification, but it is in standard setting only. Even I tried to assign the particular position using relationship A 011.
Please help
Regards
Santhosh.S

Dear Biswajit
The cost center field is uneditable. My PA OM switch is already active. My doubt is when I hire a person to that particular positions the cost center field in Organizational assignment is not editable.
One more doubt I am having is where do we assign the cost center.
To my understanding it should be done is Org Unit level or even can be maintained in position level using A011 and the same should be reflected when a person is hired to that particular org unit or person, but it is still not reflecting the cost center.
Can the cost center be changed, if it can be changed, then how.
Please advise me as to my understanding is correct or not.
Please help.

Cost Center field in ME55 Report (Change Layout)

Hi all,
In ME55 (Collective Release for PReq) Cost Center is available as one of the "Selection fields", but it's (Cost Center field) NOT available in Change Layout Function (after you execute the report).
The requirement is the user want to see the Cost Center field in the ME55 report layout instead of having to drill down to each PR to see the Cost Center assigned to the PR Account Assignment.
Since Cost Center field in NOT available in the Change Layout function of ME55, How do I add it to the layout? Do I need enhancement? If so what do i need to do?
Thanks in advance
