Cost element exclusion from CO report

Hi all
My users need a report for permit to marketing dep. to see their expenses directly. All is ok, (the cost center is only one) the problem is that they don't want they see the cost elements where are posted the labour costs (salary, at example). The problem is that our cost element number ranges don't follow the "account nature" logic but is casual, so I will be forced to place in the authority object each valid cost element, modifying each time a new account is open. It doens't exist a alternative method? (for cost element group or for exclusion of cost elements). Thank.
Davide

Hi,
there is an enhancement COOMEP01 which can be used to add additional authorization checks. You can create a custom object and only users with authorization to this object will be able to see lines with labour cost.
Cheers

BW: Cost Element Hierarchy - from R/3 plus additional node in BW

Hi all,
We have cost element hierarchy (say ZP14PL) which we schedule to update periodically from R/3 into BW . However we would like to add an additional sub-node under this same hierachy via RSH1. As this subnode is only for BW use, this is not maintained in the hierarchy ZP14PL in R/3. With the 'full update' or 'update Subtree' option in the infopackage the hierachy ZP14PL will be deleted and replaced with the latest changes thus removing the additional node which we created for BW only.
Any suggestion as to how we could have the latest hierarchy updated from R/3 without deleting the additional subnode that we added in the same hierachy in BW?
Appreciate all expert advice.
Thanks and best regards,
VC

An easy way would be to include this link into the file using a start routine....
you should know the child node and parent nodes for the same and since the location of the same is going to be constant - you could add it to your start routine....
Or have a time dependent hierarchy but that would mess up your reporting...
Also this is not the correct forum to post BI relevant questions - suggest you post the same in the BI forums for more relevant answers....

Cost element and Line item reports show different actual costs

Hi PS experts,
My client has an issue pertaining to actual cost reports. The cost element report shows actual costs $42,000 for one WBS and when I double click to see details the value it shows is $2100. Even when I checked line item report for this WBS the value is $2100. What could be the reason for getting different values? If some one throw some light on this it would be great helpful to me
Regards,
Laxminarsimha

The values in CJI3 should be correct and will include all postings (e.g. Settlement values) and possibly Actual Revenues unless a filter is in place - so take this as being your correct figure to start with.
Your drilldown will show the same value as CJI3 because it is CJI3
Any cost element report you are using is probably correct for what you are asking - is this a Standard Cost Element Report you are using or is it bespoke
One thing to be careful of when you drilldown on Cost Element Reports is that you do not always get the a make up of the value you have drilled down
e.g.
Cost Element Report was run for Period 1 to 6 2008 and shows £100.00
You drilldown and sometimes the drilldown automatically shows ALL line items e.g £500.00 (not just the values for periods 1 to 6 of 2008 which you may expect £100.00)
In the past I've removed the drilldown capability from bespoke cost element reports to prevent drilldown to the line item report (which is CJI3) because of this problem.
Usually where values for a a number of periods only (not total costs) was required
Other factors to consider
Revenues/Settlements may be excluded from Cost Element Report but will not be excluded from CJI3 unless you specifically restrict
You need to identify which types are postings are missing from the Cost Element Report (what is common...cost element, dr/cr indicator, business transaction)
I've also hit the mistake in the past where I've asked for periods 1 2007 to period 3 2008 and instead of giving me just over a years worth of actual it gave me actuals for periods 1 to 3 for 2007 and 1 to 3 for 2008.
Hope this helps

Hi,
ZPCA0002 is not a standard report.
When you report writer (painter) you can define what you see in the collumn
Offen it is possible to when you run the report and change by the menu path the settings from the report

Change cost element category from 1 to 11

Dear all,
We created by mistake revenues accounts with cost element category 1 instead of 11.
We created a sales document (contract) with account assignment to a WBSE. The revenues were appearing as negative planned cost so we realized the mistake.
Now we have deleted the item in the sales document, we have created a new revenue account with the correct cost element category 11 and we have added to the account determination (VKOA).
Now the revenue appears in the new cost element. Nonetheless we still see the revenue value as a negative planned cost.
If we create a new project and a new sales document everything is correct. But we want to mend the first one. Any idea of how?
Best regards

Fantastic !
Thank you very much

Settlment Cost element determined from work centre

Hi
I want to settle costs on plant maintenance orders to different type 21 cost elements depending on the main work centre on the order.
I understand that the ORDER TYPE can have different SETTLEMENT PROFILES and that these can determine the cost element to post to. HOWEVER the problem I have is I can not create new order types for this purpose (to much re-work).
any help would be appreciated
phil

Hi,
I dont think so that in Standard setting you can assign Settlement profile by work center. Automatic assignment of settlement profile is possible by Order type . Manual assignment of settlement profile will also not work as in one PM order you may have mutiple operation which belongs to different work center.
So this looks very unique requirement and you will have to go for some development or user exit which can make you able to post the settlement based on Work center.

Cost element description now showing in Report painter

Hi,
I selected to display KEY and DESCRIPTION in the report layout settings for a report painter however the report is displaying only the cost element number and not the description in the rows.
In this case, how to display the cost element description in the report painter rows?

Hi,
ensure that KEY + DESCRIPTION is selected in the layout settings. Description will only appear if it is maintained in the logon-language (means if your logon language is EN but cost element texts are not maintained in EN no descripiton can be seen).
best regards, Christian

How to link GL Account with Cost element category

Hi,
I have to generate a report by querying tables SKA1,SKB1,SKAT and CSKB.
Step 1.Firstly I have queried SKA1,
step 2. for the obtained SAKNR(GL Accounts) from step 1,I have queried SKB1 table
step 3. For the obtained SAKNR from step2, I have queried SKAT table.
Now, I have to get KATYP(Cost element category) from CSKB based on the above steps.
Please can you let me know the procedure to fetch the Cost element category(KATYP) from CSKB based on the above 3 steps?

Hi,
a cost element (primary cost element, thats what we are talkgin about as you want to join them to FI account numbers) is created per controlling area.
If your comp.codes to be reported use different controlling areas you have to identify which controlling area is used for which comp. code (tab. TKA02) and join the skb1 account number to cskb cost element number for reporting the KATYP.

Hello All,
Would be glad to know the field name of "Cost Element" and from which table i will be able to access it. The tables that my report is using is GLT0, GLPCT, ZCOST, ZGLMAP000.
The modification that is required is that Account Number (GLT0-RACCT) which is an selection screen parameter has to be replaced with the Cost Element field.
Thank you,

Hello All,
With help from the SDN, i was able to reference the Cost Elements contained in a Cost Element Group and also to provide a Value help for the Cost Element Group.
The Following Function modules had been used :
parameters    : s_ceg1(15) type c.
data:    begin of s_setid occurs 0,
         s_setid LIKE sethier-setid,
         end of s_setid.
data:    begin of s_setvalues occurs 0.
         include structure SETVALUES.
data:    end of s_setvalues.
1. K_GROUP_SELECT - for the Value help
   under EXPORTING pass the CLASS = '0102' and
                            FIELD_NAME = 'TKB9E-SETNR'.
   under IMPORTING          SET_NAME   = S_CEG1
2. Then used : G_SET_LIST_SELECT
    under EXPORTING pass the CLIENT    = SY-MANDT
                             SETCLASS = '0102'
                             SHORTNAME = S_CEG
    under TABLES : TABLES
           MATCHING_SETS         = S_SETID
3. Then Used : G_SET_TREE_IMPORT
EXPORTING
    CLIENT                          = SY-MANDT
    LANGU                           = SY-LANGU
    SETID                           = S_SETID
TABLES
    SET_VALUES                      = S_SETVALUES

GL account and Cost elements

Hello All,
I am looking for a report to check the GL accounts and the cost elements. I want to check if the cost element is been created for all the GL accounts and incase if I missed on the cost element for any GL account then I should create it.
Is there any standard report or even if I have to check 2 reports that would be fine.
Thanks
Priya

Hi Priya,
1. If automatic creation of the cost element is selected in your chart of accounts then you check it out list in transaction OKB2 where there is less scope to miss the creation of cost elements.
2. If it was not activated or activated later then take the GL Account list from SKB1 and cost element list from CSKA and use VLOOKUP functionality of excel.
Creating query will not help here because filed GL Account and Cost element are different even though they have the same value.

Chintan Joshi

Cost center exclusion

hi all,
I am having an issue regarding Cost center exclusion from line item report KSB1. The user has done a Vendor Invoice posting, with 2 CO Objects (Internal order - non statistical and Cost center). I have done a similar posting using Internal order and Cost center. It's being posted as actual cost for both the Internal order and Cost center(when I run KOB1, KSB1). How can I exclude the posting as actual cost from line item report KSB1. Please let me know regarding this ASAP.
Thanks

Hi,
The first point you need to clarify is there cannot be two real cost objects (Cost Center as well as Internal Order). Probably, Internal Order is only for statistical posting. Alternatively, it is posted to Internal Order and settled to Cost Center.
Thanks
Murali.

Secondary cost element in KB11N

Hello.
I'm not allowed to use a secondary cost element in a reposting.
What do I have to modify?
Thank You

Hello,
You cannot use secondary cost element. You need to use primary only.
Please go through the following:
DISTRIBUTION =========== Distribution was created for transfer primary costs from a sender cost center to receiving controlling objects. During distribution, only cost centers or business process can be used as sender. A distribution receiver can be a cost center, WBS element, internal order, cost object, or a business process. You can restrict the number of receiver categories in customizing. Primary Postings (such as, energy costs) are collected on a cost center, and allocated at the end of the period by means of the user-defined key. You can only distribute primary costs. During this process, the original cost element remains the same. Line items are posted for the sender as well as for the receiver, enabling the allocation to be recorded exactly. You can reverse distributions as often as required. You use the Cycle-Segment method to define sender-receiver relationships. PERIODIC REPOSTING ================= Differences between periodic reposting and distribution are due to information content and performance. For periodic reposting, no separate credit record is written on the sender for the cost element in the summary report. Instead, the totals record for the cost element is reduced on the debit side, which means that the original debit amount can no longer be checked there (u201Cunclean creditu201D). However, during distribution, the system writes a totals record for the credit (u201Cclean creditu201D). The information on the receiver is the same for periodic reposting and distribution (u201Cclean debitu201D). Compared with periodic reposting, during distribution, the system also updates the partner in the totals record for the sender. This means that the partner can be displayed in the information system on the totals record level. As fewer totals records are written during periodic reposting, performance is better than during distribution. ASSESSMENT =========== Assessment was created to transfer primary and secondary costs from a sender cost center to receiving controlling objects. During assessment, cost center or business processes can be used as senders. The receivers for an assessment can be a cost center, WBS element, internal order, cost object, or a business process. You can restrict the number of receiver categories in customizing. Primary and secondary posting are allocated at the end of the period by the user-defined key. During assessment, the original cost elements are summarized into assessment cost elements (secondary cost element category = 42). As the system writes fewer total records, the assessment has a better performance than periodic reposting and distribution. The system does not display the original cost elements in the receivers. Therefore, assessment is useful if the cost drilldown for the receiver is not important. Similar to distribution, the partner is updated in the totals record during distribution You can reverse assessments as often as required. You use the Cycle-Segment method to define sender-receiver relationships. Regards, Ravi
