Cost centers for reveneue

Hi,
can we use cost centers for revenues and cost both?
Thanks!

Hello,
In general, Cost Centers are not meant for revenue posting. They are meant for expenses. However, you can allow them by your cost center category. But, this is not industry best practice.
Cost center, WBS element and Internal Orders are real CO objects, where the real postings will flow.
Profit Center is always statistical only (statistical means just for information postings) - These postings are like shadow postings.
When you give two real CO object for posting like Cost Center and Internal Order (Real), then real postings will go to Internal Order (Real) and statistical postings will flow to Cost Center and the profit center assigned to Internal Order. Cost center will modify itself to a real or statistical based on the other CO object given.
Hope this is clear.

Ravi

Different Cost Centers for Different Line Items in a single Reservation

Hello Gurus,
When we create a Material Reservation, we give the cost center at the header level and that cost center is accounted for each of the line items in the reservation. But when the reservation has many line items which depend on different cost centers, there is a need to enter different cost centers for different line items in the same Material Reservation. How can this be done? Please suggest.

Hi,
It's a standard restriction in SAP functionality where one reservation document can only accommodate one cost center.
You can not maintain multiple cost centres for individual line items.
You have to create seperate Reservations for each cost centre.

Hi There, I have a simillar problem as above, however I would like a list of all G/L Accounts with profit centres and cost centres as well. Is this possible? Reason being that I have many unassigned cost centres and need to link them to profit centres.

Issue in updating Cost Centers for Employees

Hi All,
1.     Is it necessary that infotype 0000 & 0001 needs to be in synchronization i.e. both the infotypes should contain same no. of records?
2.     Is it necessary to assign cost center to both the position and the employee in infotype 0027 for Payroll purpose or either of one assignment is sufficient? What is the purpose of assigning cost center to a position & cost center to an employee in infotype 0027
3.     We have assigned cost centers to positions & all the employees via infotype 0027. Now I have a situation that the company has created new cost centers as per their business line with effect from Jan 2011. How do I update these new cost centers to position as well as all the employees?
If I assign new cost center to all the positions thru PO13 from 01.01.2011 than system delimits the record in infotype 0001 so now there is 1 record in infotype 0000 & 2 records in infotype 0001. For example an employee is hired on 01.03.2009 with cost center A assigned to his position & in infotype 0027. Now if I assign new cost center B to his position than the system delimits hiring record in infotype 0001. So now there are 2 records in infotype 0001 i.e. 01.03.2009 to 31.12.2010 & second is 01.01.2011 to 31.12.9999. If I do the assignment of new cost centers only in infotype 0027 then system posts the payroll result to old cost center rather than new cost centers. How to resolve this issue?
Regards,
VG

1. Yes. It should be. But in your case this is an exception. It will still work even if the 0000 and 0001 don't have the same number of records.
2. You should only use it0027 if an employee is charging costs to two or more cost centers. You can define here the cost centers where they are charging and the percentage of division between cost centers
If you dont have scenarios like this, DO NOT use this infotype.
For assignment of cost centers to employee (Infotype 1) or to positions (via PO13). You should only use one method. If you are assigning the cost center manually in IT0001 during hiring then you don't need to enter the cost center in the positions.
If you are entering the cost center in the Positions objects, then configure the system so that everytime you do hiring actions (or maintain infotype 1) the cost center assigned to the position is inherited in the infotype 1's cost center field.
Don't assign it to both Infotype 1 manually and the position at the same time, using this method, you'll eventually have data inconsistencies.
For you issue regarding the delimitation of the IT0001, this is ok. This is standard, the infotype 1 is delimited since you have a new cost center assignment for the succeeding period. You don't have to create an Action record since there was no employee movement, only change in cost center assignment. (which is the purpose of the Action infotype-- to record employee movement)
It won't mess with your payroll, your infotype 1 just have an extra record.

Cost Centers for Work Centers

Dear All,
In our senario we have defined 30 Work Centers required. here the Activity are only for 2 (labour, Mechaine Hr). In KP26 we have to maintain the Standard Price. How can we build a logic in this. Can we create 30 Cost Centers. Y becoz each end eavery work center have the different price for Labour. for EX;
WC1 - 150 Labour Cost
WC2 - 180 Labour Cost
WC3 - 190 Labour Cost
Like this we have to calculate. I hope it is required to create 30 Cost Center to assaign wot Wrok Centers. Here we are going to KP06. We have a standrd pirce to calculate.
Regards

Dear Raj,
IF the business is interested in capturing using different cost centers means then you can create individual cost center and
assign it to the work center and define the rates in KP26.So only one activity type will be there but different cost center.
The otherway is creating multiple activity types say LABH1,LABH2....and creating different rates for the activity type ans same
cost center combination in KP26.But here the challenge is you have to assign the activity types properly under costing tab
against the formulas.
Check and revert back with your queries.

Cost Centers for Work Orders

HI Guru's,
I have an issue with work orders for our maintenance team. The orders are being settled to the incorrect cost center. I believe this is happening because they have not been set up correctly. Please can you tell me if there a way to transfer these into the correct cost center? and how can I change the set up on these work orders?
Please can you help.
Best Regards,
Yasmeen

It sounds like you need to change the settlement rule on the work orders so they settle to the correct cost center. Go to IW32 -> Goto->Settlement rule
To move previous postings, you can do an CO only reposting using transaction KB11 to move CO postings to the correct cost object.
Good luck!
Tammy

Two Cost Element for the same GL

Hi,
We have 2 Company Codes - 1000 & 2000. We are using same CoA in both the Company Codes. We have a GL, say 12345678 for posting short/excess amount. So during MIRO, the accounting entry would be:
GR/IR a/c dr.          10,000
GL 12345678                  2
                   Vendor            10,002
GL 12345678 would be dr or Cr would depend on short/excess amount.
We have created Cost Element for this GL 12345678. If I post the MIRO without attaching a Cost Center to this Cost Element system thows an error to attach the Cost Center. I have separate Cost Center for Company Codes 1000 & 2000 however I can only put one Cost Center in this Cost Element.
Can anyone advice how can I post the above mentioned entry with different Cost Center. This line item (GL 12345678) is generated automatically and the Cost Center field is greyed out hence I don't have option to enter the Cost Center during MIRO. I checked the FSG of this GL, Cost Center field is 'Optional' over there.
Thanks,
Sandy

How to find the list of cost centers reporting to a particular employee

Hi Experts,
I have to create one report in Java Web Dynpro. In the report, I have to display all cost centers reporting to a paricular employee. For example suppose Vice President of company has pernr 6481. From pa20, we quickly find out that his cost center is say 1209000. Now the Vice President has several reporting cost centers. For example one cost center will be for Marketing Deptt, other may be of HR deptt.
Please let me know how I can find out that what all cost centers are reporting to pernr 6481(Vice Preseident)
Regards,
Gary

Hi Pradeep,
Thanks for email. In my project name has been maintained in CSKS-VERAK. However this name does not matches exactly with the name of pa20 (HR). It looks like SAP has not provided data integrity between HR name and CSKS-VERAK. It seems that while creating cost center, the user enters name in his own way. For example "Al-Fahad Malki" can be written in "Malki Fahad-Al" or "Malki Fahad" or "Al-Malki Fahad". The name of user in pa20 may be "Al-Fahad M". So it is not possible for us to use solution provided by you.
Hi Pradeep, SDN Users,
I have used following logic for getting cost centers for given pernr.
1)     Take pernr as input. Exexute RFC HRWPC_RFC_OADP_GET_NAVOBJECTS. While executing RFC pass following values:
a.     OBJSEL - MSS_TMV_EE_ORG1
b.     Begda u2013 Today date
c.     Ends u2013 Today date
d.     User u2013 pernr
e.     Cachemaxage - -1
2)     Then program should read the value of OBJID from HRWPC_RFC_OADP_GET_NAVOBJECTS output.
3)     After this program should read value from HRP1001 for following condition
PLVAR = 01
OBJID = OBJID of step 2
RELAT = u2018011u2019 and
RSIGN = u2018Au2019 and
(check todayu2019s date is >= begda and <= endda ) and
SCLAS = u2018Ku2019 u2026 and
SOBJID = first 10 charactersu2026
The cost center will be first 10 characters of SOBJID.
4)     Return the Cost Center as derived in step 3. The cost center name and cost center name both should be returned as the output.
5)     Sort the Cost Centers in ascending order of Cost Center name, if needed.

Gary

Hi,
This you can do it in two ways:
1. Make three header under top level....one Product A, 2nd Product B ( as Billing element) and third as Common expense ( only cost). Now 1st & 2 nd WBS, you have to have sales order linking with individual lint item, for third you will accumulate all the common expense till the period end then make a reposting of the same in desired proportion to both products WBS hierarchy
(This is if you want to have a track on the common expense as well.......like planning, budgeting & control)
After this reposting, run RA for individual billing element and hence you will all the complement detailing and control over Revenue and expense with respect to Product A and Product B individually.
2. If you don't want to maintain that kind of detailing the common expense and keep track of it through project, then have cost centers accordingly and make an assesment/ distribution with respect to expenses accumulated at those cost centers for the period to the respective WBS under each product. Then execute the period end processes for the project.
Or
You can try with have two more line items in the costing sheet as an overhead against common expenses with respect each product.
I hope this should help you.
