Cost Center mapping

firstly i want to know how do i change how the mapping of a cost center...can a cost center be tied to a storage locatio instead of to a material...so when a stock count is doe the mapping of the cost center will be against the storage location and not the material...

Cost center and storage location does not come together any one only has to be used at a given time. If we choose cost center then there will be no storage location asked during GR, and if we do not use Cost center then that indicates Storage location is to be filled in duirng GR.
Cost center is for direct consumption and SLOC is used to store and later issued for consumtion. Accounting entries are different during both the case.

Functional location and cost center link

Hi All,
I need to know the table that contains the details of functional location and the cost center mapped to that.
I know a table IFLOT which gives details of the functional location, however i do not see field for cost center in that.
Let me know if there is any other table which gives this data.
Thanks,

Raghavendra,
Pass the ILOAN of your Functional location to ILOA table and get 'KOSTL' - Cost center.

Mapping of Plant to Cost Center

Is there any direct mapping of plant to the cost center?
If so, pls. provide the transaction code through which we can check the same.
Also provide the table, if any.

Hi,
If you are talking about getting the Default Account Assignment (Cost Center) for a Cost Element as per Plant (Valuation Area) then go to OKB9 and maintain the GL A/c with default Cost Center keeping value as "1" i.e. Valuation area is mandatory in the column of mandatory fields of Account Assignment.

Mapping of cost center to G/L accounts

Hello ,
I have one discount G/L which is added in the Sales pricing condition . When sales invoice is generated , the system throws an error as discount g/L requires CO object.
In OKB9, we can do the setting . But the scenario here is they have only one Business area and one plant only . but they want to map cost centers based on Materials and not based on business area .
So let me know whether we can assign many cost centers to one G/L account automatically . I mean is there any way wherein cost centers can be mapped as per the materials and when the invoice is generated the g/L accounts should go to the appropraiate cost center with respect to the material.
thanks

Hi,
You can post the freight expenses as it is to a single cost center. Thereafter, use manual reposting through KB11N
or through distribution cycle periodically.

Cost Center assign Profit Center Issues

Hi Controlling Expert,
i have one issues regarding, Cost Center assign to Profit Center
wht happened , we have made MIS Report Thru Report Painter KE80, we have map based on   Primary Cost Element, at the time of Business Transaction, we have capture the Finance Cost center i.e FI000, Marketing Cost center i.e MK000 , HR Cost Center i,e HR000 and assign the same cost center FI000 to Profit Center i.e FI000 also same name, respectively. in MIS report there is two Head i.e Sustaining Cost and Development Cost ,where we have to capture only Cost center for Sustaining Cost related to display i.e FI000, MK000 and HR000. KE80 report belongs to Profit Center wise you can see the Report. But same FI000, MK000 and HR000 also updated related with business transaction and capture above cost center like in depreciation GL Amount 1000 cost center FI000 and sustaining cost also updated the same amount 1000 because we have assign FI000, i.e wrong . last 3 months post the amount now wht should I do for not updated sustaining cost, as I understand , should be delete sustaining Cost as well Development, and later on we can take report from KSB1 for FI000, MK000 and HR000, for management purpose, so if I cannot assign profit center FI000 to Cost Center .kindly correct me whether ryt or wrong. Coz Fianance, HR cost and marketing is only cost center. not suppose to assigh profit center, in this case how Profit Center removed from Cost center. kindly let me knw, or give me other option.

Manpower      : same like Above
2.Energy            : same like Above

Hi
As said by Bijay u can Go for Blanket Po also.
Create blanket PO with limit and validity period. (Blanket purchase orders have the item category B and the document type FO. )
U can create PO with or without account assignment and can change as per requirement at the time of Invoice verification so that expence will be booked against required cost center
I think this is a best soln.
<b>Also read info given by SAP about Blanket PO</b>
The processing time for individual purchase orders is not often viable for office materials, screws and small parts, cleaning work or lesser services that are required during the course of the year In such cases, you can use blanket purchase orders to procure various consumable materials or services from a vendor, up to a fixed value limit.
A blanket purchase order contains a validity period and a value limit. This means that you can specify a validity period instead of a delivery date. Invoices can be posted against this blanket purchase order within the validity period. The total invoiced value must not exceed the value limit. A blanket purchase order only contains a short text. It does not contain materials or services. Blanket purchase orders have the item category B and the document type FO.
You cannot enter a goods receipt, enter services, or accept services for blanket purchase orders.
<b>The system does not need to know the account assignments for the individual requirements at the time of the purchase order</b>. You can enter them during invoice verification. If account assignment data has already been maintained in the purchase order, you can change these during invoice verification. When you enter an invoice for a blanket purchase order, you can enter as many account assignments as you require, along with the relevant amounts.

Cost center doubt in Itemization of Material Cost Estimate

Hi,
I have one doubt. I creating a material cost estimate of a header material.A new overhead rate ZCDD has been maintained in the costing sheet. An existing crdit key ZC9 has been assigned to the overhead rate ZCDD. The cost element and cost center row has been added in the credit key.
When I run the material cost estimate, the cost element it is coming, but the cost center it is picking is not the one which has been maintained in the credit key.
Can you please clarify my doubt, I am stuck up on this. Please let me know if you need any more information roe clarifications.
Thank you very much.
Prithwiraj.

Hi Rau,
Thanks for the reply.
Can u tell me, is it mandatory to have only one to one Cost Center-Cost element mapping in a Credit Key?
I mean to say is it like that we can assign a cost element of a credit key only to one cost center?
Thanks,
Prithwiraj.

Dear experts
As per SAP Notes 31126 and 137686 I have maintain all configuration settings for "Automatic posting of vendor invoice from Billing" in different company codes.
It is working perfectly the way we need,
we need help in Transaction Code "OBCC - Assign Additonal Accounts Assignments for EDI Procedure" here system asks for "Account Assignment ID" for determination of cost center for invoice flowing through IDOC.
I would like to know, what values I can give here so that system will determine the relvant cost center in KR document posted in FI.
SAP Note says minimum entry here as " * "
At present system is determining only one cost center for all services mapped.
Thanks advance for the help.

Default cost center not appearing for certain users

Hi Gurus,
We are on SRM 4.0 classic scenario.
For certain users when they create SC in SRM the default cost center is not automatically taken into account even if they change it to it. The default cost center was changed for these users and some of them still refer to the old cost center no. which was maintained for them.
The users are not defective and the except the cost center all other attributes work fine. I have tested by deleting & recreating new BP no. for the users but it still doesnt help. Please advise.
BR,
Sambit

hi
check if the users are correctly mapped into org structure (ppoma_bbp)
than check if theri Position are correctly mapped with the default cost center (ppoma_bbp; tab attributes; cost center

Invoice with cost center

while creating invoice via va01, if the material is mapped with GL accs that require cost center, we will choose the cost center in Order reason field, after that we create billing and then we can see the accounting document. In case if we not choose the cost center we can still create invoice and billing but the accounting doc is not generated, then we have to create credit note to clear the incorrect invoice and recreate new one..
to over come the above issue is there any way the system throw the message stating that this specific material requires cost center and dosen't allow to save ? ( or) if the above message cant be added is there any chance whether the system allow us to amend the cost center in billing and can recreate the accounting doc automatically ?

You can control this by maintaining Incompletion log for Sales Item (Tcode OVA2) and correspondingly assign the same to your I Cat.
And FYI, you can't make any change in cost center details at billing level.
Thanks & Regards

Statistical posting to Internal order and Cost center while real to PSG

Dear SAP Gurus,
There is a requirement is to post statistical posting to Cost center and IO while real posting to PA. I tested and found that I can have only either of Cost center or IO as statistical receiver. Is this standard behaviour or some error in set up.
Thanks,

Hi
I am not sure how IS-H works.. But for sure, it should allow you to enter 3 stat objects...
There would be some ABAP trick pertaining to IS-H which I am not aware of...
I can guide you a bit... During SD billing, ask abaper to put a break point and manually enter the values for cost center and IO and then post the doc.... One of these 2 will be the outcomes
a. Either it will get posted or
b. It will get over written before posting....
based on the outcome, you will have to decide your next course of action
Also, if your cost center to IO is one to one mapping (Chances would be rare), you can simply write a substitution which would always prevail
I am sorry I could not offer you a complete solution.. But, this is what comes to my mind...

Assignment of Cost Center

Dear all,
We want to do a manual posting into the Excise Duty on Sales G/l through F-02 but system is throwing an
error Account 123456 requires an assignment to a CO object even if give a cost center then also the problem exists.We have maintained Default Cost center & Cost Element in OKB9 & then when we are doing entry then the system is through error complete PA transfer structure Fi Message no. KF018.

D RANA
Edited by: Deepak Rana on Mar 7, 2009 1:02 PM

Hi,
Yes. As you are maintaining here value field also in PA Transfer structure, it will also impact your COPA reports, if in that report you are analysing the same.
Also one thing needs to clear that in COPA you are alos maintaining all your cost components with relevant value fields as a part of mapping for reflection of all relevant values, as this is the link between your value flow between CO - PC and COPA.
Also your relevant condition types from SD which you want to analyse in COPA also needs to be link with value fields as a part of analysing your COGS (In CO - PC, you can only get COGM).
Pls get back for further query.
Thanks & Regards,
Taral Patel
