Cost element 41 is not getting displayed in basic data Cost Element Basic..

Question

Hello All,
Need you help in understanding and solving this issue, when ever I am creating a GL account in P&L, primary cost element is getting created, that is perfect, but for some G/L account I want to assign to CElem category to 41 for overhead, but due to some reason, only see 6 cost element category when try to look into mirror glass, or F4, only can see (1, 3, 4, 11, 12, 22). Please suggest how can I fixed this. If some one is having hard time understanding my question please feel free to write me.
Thanks
Nishan

Christian,
I belive you have not understood this issue, here I am not asking the difference between primary and secondary, let me articulate it one more time:
When you create a G/L account under expenses for P&L and it create Primary cost element and instead of allocating it to primary costs/ cost-reducing revenue want to make it to 41 overhead cost element. but I dont see the option of 41 just see 6 option ( 1 for primary costs/ cost-revenue reducing revenues. 3 - Accrual, 4 , 11= revenue, 12 = sales deduction and 22 external settlement, and where as I dont see 41, what setting need to be changed so that I can see all the cost element type.
thanks
