Cost Center in the costing sheet

Hello All,
We have set up the costing sheet with the material overhead flowing to a cost center 99XX through cost element 8XXXXX (in the "credit" view of the costing sheet) for all production orders. Now, there is a requirement whereby the material overhead for production orders of a certain division need to be allocated to another cost center 91XX.
Please let me know if this is feasible and if yes, how this can be done?
Thanks,
Rugmani

Hi Rajan
What is the basis of overhead absorption? I mean is it a % of some cost or Quantity based?
Different credits for same secondary cost ele is possible only by way of origin group.... And origin group is applicable to the input components in a BOM and not the Output (Header) material
A. So, if your overhead absorption is based on input materials and if these input materials are specific only to one Division/ Header material, you can achieve what you want with the std SAP functinality. But, normally in a prod scenario, this is not the case... One input material can be used across multiple divisions...
B. If this is not your case, then may be you need to consider CO substitution using a user exit or the relevant exit/BAPI called during CO43
C. Another option is to post the credit to one cost center and then do KB11N to transfer it to relevant cost center.... Info required to do this can be easily made available Like this
1. Double click on the credit line items in a cost center report (S_ALR_87013611) and choose to display actual line items
2. Plug in the partner object using change layout option
3. partner object will show you the Prod Order No... From prod order no, you can get the material and the division....
you can develop an ABAP report to give you this info...

  • Cost Center and res cost center

    Hi team,
    When i am going to settle the cost of PM Order , COst center pick from Equipment sonly. Then what is the use of assignemnt of cost center in work center.
    thanx in advance

    Hi,
    How do I call you? SAPPM is not appropriate!...
    You are attaching one cost center to your work center that supplies required resources (activity types) to perform the maintenance - in IR01. That cost center is to maintain the rate of the resource (Activity types) ie. Rs.500 / Hr or day - in KP26.
    Whenever you are utilizing a resource from a work center, system refers the cost center / activity type combination to determine the cost. Based on no. of hours or days utilization, the planned cost / actual cost are determined from the Wctr, Cctr, Acttypes.
    These are so called Source of cost center.
    After completing the order, the cost incurred are with the maint. order. Now we need to settle to a cost object, it may be a cost center / WBS / Contract / PSEG etc.. depends on your business requirement. You may use a cost center as a Cost receiver / cost object to observe your maintenance cost of an Equipment / Func loc / or its group.
    As a whole, the work center / cost center is used to determine the cost (Source). Equipment cost center observe the cost of maintenance(receiver).
    Hope this description gives required clarification . If not, Revert back.

  • Credit Cost center in a Costing sheet

    Hi,
    In the costing sheet i have to credit the Overheads to a cost center. Are there any guidelines for doing the same.
    What effect does it has on while reporting for the cost center. Can someone explain me the purpose of this 'Credit' Cost center option in a costing sheet.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Safi

    Hi,
    In case of Indirect production cost centers,
    We get the debits directly from FI through Primary cost elements and through allocations (distribution or Assessment).
    These costs need to be Absorbed to Product through Product costing or service orders or projects through Overheads
    This absorption will result in:
    Manufacturing Order/Service Order/Project etc  is debited and
    Cost Center is Credited.
    at the end of every month there will be debits and credits in the Cost center.
    The difference between the Debits and Credits would results in Cost Center variances.  These variances will be settled to COPA periodically thereby making Cost Centers a Zero Balance
    Effect on Reports:
    Though There is Zero balance in the Cost Centers, this will not have any begetive bearing or the reporting.
    Because, Cost Reports for analysis of the expenses would be based on Primary Cost Elements (Verification of costs by Origin of the costs) and Varainces between planned and actual comparison also can be done
    Hope this will solve your query.
    Please award points suitably

  • Open field for cost center on the material master

    We have a unique requirement in a facility we intend to implement plant maintenance in to track a cost center to a material by including the cost center on the material master somewhere.  Cost center is not a field on any of the material tabs we use for maintenance materials, but the requirement is just that it is tracked in a field, even if it's just an open field like a "user defined field" or another field not used often.  We realize there are disadvantages such as the field not being checked against active cost centers, but we are looking at options short of adding cost center as a field manually to a tab (which I believe would require ABAP assistance).  I don't think there are any other fields/tabs we are currently not utilizing but I could be wrong... The best option we can think of is adding it in a material characteristic so it shows on the classifications tab, but I thought I would see if anyone has any other ideas.
    Thanks

    Not sure what is the need of cost center on material master when you want to implement Plant maintenance module. Do you have any specific requirement for this?
    Ideally cost center will be derived from either functional location/ equipment (equivalent of material master) on to PM work order or notification.
    Can you elaborate the requirement?
    After all if you wish to go with cost center, then I suggest it should be at plant level as PM requires plant level distribution. You can add up a custom field and give the reference of cost center data element with help of developer.

  • Blocking the filling of a cost center in the creation of a Purchase Order

    Hi All,
    I've some cost center which are obsolete and mustn't be used in the creation of a Purchase Requisition (or Purchase Order).
    Could anyone suggest me how to do it?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    The transaction me21n uses the authorization object A_S_KOSTL for cost
    center. However, the authorization object A_S_KOSTL is not related to
    the cost center that is displayed in the account assignment view of th
    purchase order item, but its scope is to limit the access to fixed
    assets belonging to the specified cost center (see the note 856248).
    There is no standard authorization object that you can use from
    transaction me21n to validate the cost center that you see in the
    account assignment view at item level. The same can be said about the
    purchase requisition creation (me51n).
    So, I have three options for you to consider.
    First Option:
    There is an existing possibility to perform user defined checks during
    all kinds of postings which finally lead costs in CO. With transaction
    OKC7 you may define a validation which is also processed during
    purchasing. You can explore the possibility of achieving the
    functionality you need by making customizing changes using transaction
    OKC7.
    Second Option:
    You could use userexit enhancement MEREQ001. For further information
    please see note 310154.
    Third Option:
    Also, you may consider instead of an authorization check for cost
    centers you can activate an authorization check for G/L accounts.
    Therefore the following settings are required:
    I. Customizing -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase
        Order -> Set Up Authorization Check for G/L Accounts:
        activate the G/L account authorization check for the required
        company code
    II. Transaction FS02 -> View: Control data: enter the authorization
        group

  • How to get the cost center for the retro balance.

    Hi All
    I have this report that gives the retro balance. I get the information from RT and BAL. The problem is it doesn't show the Cost Center for the retro amounts. C1 holds the current periods payments not the retro ones.
    Does any one know how can i get the Cost Center of the the amounts that wage type /552 is showing in the RT?
    Please Help!!!

    Hi
    I am not sure on the requirement. You are developing a FI report and accessing VA03 which is sales transaction. Anyway for getting cost center you can go to table VBAK,VBAP for line items.
    Hope solves ur problem

  • Cost center receiving the real posting even WBS Element are present

    Dear All
    As per standard SAP documentation, when both cost center and WBS elements are present in the same accounting document, WBS element will take real posting and cost center will take statistical posting.
    But in the MIRO document cost center took the real posting even the WBS element is present in the line item of the accounting document.
    Regards
    Partha Pratim Bhar

    Hi
    If the WBS element is not statistical, then the real posting should be to the WBS element. However, if you see, when the WBS element becomes a statistical,(when the check mark is added in the control tab) the field cost center becomes active and needs to be input.
    In your case since you are deriving the cost center through a substitution rule. Normally if you rules of priority during a document posting, the substitution and validation rules takes a higher priority. So apparently the cost center will get the real posting!! Since the real posting is already made to the cost center, the entry to the WBS element would become a statistical one...
    Thats the reason why the situation changes when you deactivate the substitution rule. I am not sure about the entry in the WBS element...My guess is that you would not be able to settle the costs in the WBS Elements.
    Hope this clarifies.

  • What is the impact of business area and cost center in the sales document

    Hi all
    I have small doubt regarding what is the impact of bussiness area and cost center in the sales document... what is the uses of these (bussiness area, cost center) is help full for sd module
    can any one reply plz....
    Thanking you

    Hi,
    Business Area determines where the revenue should be allocated when you sell a material or a service.
    For eg: If your customer is in say Mumbai and he is ordering for a service in Delhi (say DIAL - Delhi International Airport Limited) then based on the terminology.
    Your customer would belong to B Basis Business Area - WHERE THE REVENUE IS COMING FROM or WHERE YOUR CUSTOMER BELONGS TO (SALES OFFICE).
    Whereas your DIAL sales will belong to A Basis Business Area - WHERE THE REVENUE IS GOING TO.
    Cost Center would determine where your allocate your cost to.
    Say Rounding Off can be used as a cost element, because some sort of revenue is lost when figures are roudned off..
    Hope it clarifies your doubt.
    Reward points if satisfactory

  • Cost Center Report with Cost Element wise Subtotal

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement where customer wants a Cost Center report with Cost Element wise Subtotal and selection options required are Company Code, Cost Center, Cost Element.
    KSB1 solves the requirement, but when executed for 2 or more company codes it is taking 3 to 4 hours.
    The other alternative report we tried is S_ALR_87013611- Actual/Plan but this report gives debit and credit values in seperate columns.
    Please let me know if we can copy the report S_ALR_87013611 and change it using report writer to have the output by Cost Element wise total.
    Also please let me how we can increse the speed of KSB1 report.
    Thanks
    Satish

    for KSB1 Report the following is my suggestion
    1. Please go to the selection criteria for the cost elements and de select the secondary cost elements in the the exclude range and try running the report this is generate the report faster.
    2. also check the date range please give the date range for 3 t months and if you want to run for multiple company codes. if you want to execute it for longer periods say 9 months or 6 months generate the report in 2 to 3 installments and download them to your excel and consilidate them in excel for your analysis

  • Transaction data from one cost center to another cost center

    Hi All
    Can any one tel me how to move the Transaction data from one cost center to another cost center .
    My scenario is basically : Users posted for  company code 1003 for Cost center S00570 for the period 01.04.2007  to 30.11.2007 but it has to go to company code 1000  instead of 1003  for the same Cost center .S00570 .
    What we have done is that we have changed the cost center from 01.12.2007 on words to the correct company code 1000 and now all postings are going to the right company code ie
    to company code 1000.
    Now the problem is how to bring back the old historical data posted  from 01.04.2007 to 30.11.2007  to wrong company code the 1003 to correct company code  1000 .
    Is there a way to bring back the historical data which has posted to wrong company code .
    Thanks in Advance .
    Any help highly appreciated and points are assigned .
    Cheers
    Ravindra.

    Once you have changed the company code in the master data, then the entries with respect to the different company code cannot be transferred. Please follow the process below and let me know if it works.
    1. Revert the cost center master data to the original company code.
    2. Repost the line items from this cost center to another cost center. Use tcode KB61. The cost center you will be reposting will be a routing cost center (say XXXXX).
    3. Once all the line items have been reposted, change the master data of the cost center to the correct company code.
    4. Again repost the costs from the routing cost center(XXXXX) to the correct cost center. You should have all the line items to the correct cost center now.
    For more on reposting refer the link below:

  • Cost assosiated with the cost center

    Hi,
    How do I know the cost associated with a particular cost center. Also I would like to distribute the cost in a particular center to all the active cost centers. Please let me know how can this be achieved.
    Thanks.

    Hi Lakshmi,
                    Time sheets are filled for employees and subcontrators and that data will be stored in CATSDB table. So from the CATSDB you can get the cost center, activity type passing the company code,Fiscal year, Fiscal period and the controlling area as inputs.
    For each cost center and activity type combination, you can get the OBJNR from table CSSL passing SKOSTL and LSTAR.
    call the Function module
        CALL FUNCTION 'BKK_GL_FI_PERIOD_DETERMINE'
          EXPORTING
            I_BUKRS = '1010'  "Pass the Company Code

            E_GJAHR = l_gjahr
            E_RC    = l_rc.
    Pass on the l_budat = t_catsdb-workdate and bukrs as "Specific to ur company"
    Get the cost rate from table cost passing the objnr and l_gjahr(Through above function module).
    Get the cost rate from table COST passing the objnr and l_gjahr.
    The exact cost is determined by the field cost-tkgoxx where the ‘XX’ is obtained by
    the exporting parameter(l_monat) of BKK_GL_FI_PERIOD_DETERMINE.
    if l_monat is 10 then,
    Select tkg010 from COST table passing objnr and l_gjahr.
    This program was done for posting the document for Full time employees. I dont know if it works for you.

    thanks,

    Hi
    Cost Center must be maintained for that person in HR master data. Please have your HR person look into this and maintain the data and try again. Cost center and Atype of that person would bring in actual costs (equivalent of hours) on the receiving objects when time sheet is being recorded.
