Cost centre and Profit centre in one query - Authorisations not working!

Hiya,
I have another problem related to Analysis Authorisations.
I have created an AA with Cost Centre and Profit centre access restricted to a certain node of a hierarchy (type 1 - this node and below). For example, the User can only run a query at Cost Centres level of Country Belgium - the query works fine. Now, the user wants to drill down by the relevant Profit centres. According to the log, the system checks for Profit centres like * and says the user is not authorised. All this, despite the fact that all Profit centres belong to country Belgium and user has been given access to see these profit centres.
What do I need to do to enable drilldown by Profit centre? I can't make a "*" access to Profit centre as the user will be able to run other queries at global level, which is not what I can allow.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
I don't know if it is relevant, but I had a similar problem when I had two characteristic each with hierarchy restrictions in one authorization object.
I "solved" it by separting each characteristic into its own authorization object.

Can we attach cost centre to profit centre group?

Hi all
I would like to know whether a cost centre can be attached to profit centre group or is it mandatory to attach it to only profit centre?
Also can i maintain profit centre and profit centre group at same level in profit centre hierarchy?
Regards
Smita

Hello
Cost center will be assigned to Profit center only not to profit center group. the main intention of the maintain the profit center in the cost center master data, what ever the transactions are posted to the particular profit center the same may be posted to Profit center.
Profit center group means, all the similar nature profit center will be clubbed under one profit center group or you can prepare the profit center groups for your reporting purposes also.

Assign Plant to a GL Account and Profit Centre

Where do I assign a plant to a GL account and Profit Centre.

Hi,
a plant is not direct assigned to a profit-center and not to a G/L account.
A plant is assigned to a company code (in customizing), a GL account can be created (account master data) within a company code (if its used in this CC), a profit-center is assigned to one/more company codes (profit-center master data).
In material master / costing 1 view (which is plant related) you can assign a material to a profit center, thus all postings in one plant related to this material belong to this profit center.

Division and Profit Centre Relationship?

Hi,
Is anyone able to provide a definition of the objects DIVISION and PROFIT CENTRE and also what their relationship is with each other?
Thanks,
M.

Division : A way of grouping materials, products, or services. The system uses divisions to determine the sales areas and the business areas for a material, product, or service.
A product or service is always assigned to just one division. From the point of view of sales and distribution, the use of divisions lets you organize your sales structure around groups of similar products or product lines. This allows the people in a division who process orders and service customers to specialize within a manageable area of expertise.
Profit Centre: An organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
Operating results for profit centers can be analyzed using either the cost of sales approach or the period accounting approach.
By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your profit centers for use as investment centers.

Sales Documents and Profit Centre and GL Accounts

Currently a when we create a sales document for a plant, that document is posting to a specific GL account (Cash on Hand account) and profit centre. In VKOA, the Account Assignment Group is assignment to a GL Account, and that AAG is assigned to the material master. I want to find out how SAP is currently determining to which profit centre and GL Account it is posting to. The only thing that I can get is the Plant and sales office in the Sales document. I want to know the determination factor

Relation between Prod. Hierarchy and Profit Centre

Dearest all,
does anybody know what the relation between prod. hierarchies and profit centre?

But I want to display them per Product hierarchies...

Responsible Cost Center and Profit Center in a Maintenance Order

Dears,
I would like to know what's the real influence that responsible cost center and profit center located in the
"add. data" tab in maintenance order has when I confirm a labor (through the IW41) and settlement an maintenance order.
Best Regards,
D. Quint.

D Quintal,
When you perform a confirmation (IW41) the cost centre assigned to the work centre is credited, and the order debited.
This work centre cost centre may be the same cost centre as the responsible cost centre in the order...

Cost Center and Profit Center in Sales Order and Deliveries.

What are the different methods of determining cost centers and Profit centers in Sales orders ?
Can Cost Center be determined independently in sales order or will be detrmined from Profit center ?

Hi Sunil
Profit Centres are used primarily in S&D (at billing stage it is transferred to FI) for registering revenue.
Billing -
Integration Points Module
Debit A/R - FI/ CO
Credit Revenue - FI/ CO
Updates G/ L - FI/ CO
(Tax, discounts, surcharges, etc.)
Return Delivery & Credit Memo -
Integration Points Module
Increases Inventory - MM
Updates G/ L - FI
Credit Memo - FI
Adjustment to A/R - FI
Reduces Revenue - FI
Profit Centers can be set-up to identify product lines, divisions, geographical regions, offices, production sites or by functions. Profit Centers are used for Internal Control purposes enabling management the ability to review areas of responsibility within their organization.
The difference between a Cost Center and a Profit Center is that the Cost Center represents individual costs incurred during a given period and Profit Centers contain the balances of costs and revenues.

Cost Center and Profit Center Planning

Hi,
I have one Co issue. Pls Suggest me the wiseful solution.
Cost Center and Profit Center Planning.
For F-2008 Planning data they have updated in the month of Aug, 07 for Profit and Loss Items and they have revised the plan data of some cost elements in the month of oct, 2007 (say 5% Increas). when comparing the cost center report to profit center report, both are not matching. the reason when i see and reconcile the document nos and values in between cost center and profit center reports i found out that there are some documents are missing in the profit center report.
wherever plan data had revised e.g for cost element Salaries they have updated 100000 Planning cost in the month of Aug, 07. In the month of Oct, 07 increased 5% i.e.5000. In cost center line items details i found 2 documents for Rs.100000/- and Rs.5000/- But in Profit Center Line Items i am getting only Rs.5000/- Value Document.
Note. As and when KP06 Plan data has been updated Profit Center line items are generating. It is not necessary to run any programme inorder to transfer Plan Data from cost center to profit center.
Observations From My Side:-
I tried to run the transaction code 1ke0. i have selected the cost object is Cost Center, version and had given Cost Center Parameter in development and quality clients and executed the same.By this time already existing data either deleting/ riversing and creating new documents fully except manually changed data in profit center through 7ke1.
My Question is
1.Upto what extent it will work.
2.will it be possible to transfer data from cost center to profit center only missing documents which are available in cost center, without disturbing of existing data in profit center.
3.suppose if i done this activity, there are some data which was already transferred from other cost objects like internatl orders & wbs elements to Profit Center. will the data get disturbed (deleted/riversed).
Pls suggest me the wiseful way to solve the

3. After creating new cost center and profit center, i have to go to okb9, select the co.code,cost element and insert the new cost center and profit center in every cost element. This takes almost one hour.
Please suggest how to reduce this manually process.
All the help will be greatly appreciated.

Sridhar Reddy

Hi ,
Master data is to be created in diffrent clients as it is a non transportable object .
So in case of GL , cost centers you will have to again re run the LSMW which you had created for DEV .
Secondly OKB9 is a transportable object , so i dont feel there should be an issue in adding it to a transportable object .
In case of adding the values of tables in a request what you can do is create a request , go to SE01 open the request in change mode in the objects enter TABU and enter on the relevant entries that you want to transport .
But again one has to be very clear on what all table entries are to be transported , like SKA1 , SKB1 , SKAT etc. looking at the complexities and moving ahead with the standard way it is advisable to re run the LSMW in QUA and PRD .
Hope this helps .
