Cost Elements (Data Migration)

Dear Experts,
I am new to data migration. I would like to check whether do we need to migrate controlling documents relating to cost elements (Primary and Secondary) to the new system.
If yes, where can I find the information
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Controlling documents are created internally when you do transaction along with FI posting and this can be uploaded with LSMW.As it is a data that can be uploaded after the master data has been uploaded in the new system. For LSMW you can visit the following link.

Cost element date

Dear Friends,
I have tried to change the cost element date into future to avoid this element in current period. I tried in edit---analysis period the moment system shows the edited period but it is not saving in the system.
How can i save the changes to a cost element?
Thanks in advance
N.M.B

Dear ,
You can only Run Std Cost estimate for open period.
In SAP only 2 months can be open at the same time.
Current & previous only 2 months will be open.
So you can Run Std Cost estimate for last month or current month not for future month as it update material master also when you release it
Hope above will helpful.

How to get the table of cost elements data?

Dear friends,
I want ot get the Chart_of_Accounts, Cost_Element, Short_Text into an internal table, but how can I find the related tables in SAP system?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
The table for cost element is CSKA.
Alternately you can use the bapi BAPI_COSTELEM_GETDETAIL for getting the details also.

CSKA & CSKB Tables -Cost Element+ Controlling Area, Cost Element Category

I have few questions on Chart Of Accounts and Controlling Areas and CSKA(Cost elements (data dependent on chart of accounts)) and CSKB (Cost elements (data dependent on controlling area)) Tables--
1) One Chart Of Accounts has one or more Controlling Areas. Is there any situation where One Controlling Area contains many Chart Of Accounts.
2) CSKA Table contains all the Cost Elements under the Chart Of Accounts. So does all these Cost Elements appear under CSKB Table. Are there any Cost Elements which doesn't fall under any of the Controlling Area and only exists under Chart Of Accounts Level in CSKA Table.
3) In CSKB Table How do we know the corresponding Chart Of Accounts for the Cost Element.
4) In CSKB Table Cost Element Category depends on both Cost Element and Controlling Area. So does a Cost Element can be Primary Cost Element for one Controlling Area which happens to be GL Account and Secondary Cost Element for some controlling Areas.
5) Are there any Company Codes under the Chart Of Accounts which doesn't belong to any of the Controlling Area and doesn't have any Cost Elements.

Hi,
1) One Chart Of Accounts has one or more Controlling Areas. Is there any situation where One Controlling Area contains many Chart Of Accounts. Never
One controlling area can be assigned to many company codes, but all must have been assigned to the same chart of accounts only. This is the pre requisite for the so called cross company controlling
2) CSKA Table contains all the Cost Elements under the Chart Of Accounts. So does all these Cost Elements appear under CSKB Table. Are there any Cost Elements which doesn't fall under any of the Controlling Area and only exists under Chart Of Accounts Level in CSKA Table.
If some data exists in CSKA table, it mean that, it must have been created as a CE in any of the controlling area
3) In CSKB Table How do we know the corresponding Chart Of Accounts for the Cost Element.
In CSKB, you wont get the correspondant COA for the given controlling area. If you want to know it pass field value CSKB-KOKRS to table field TKA01-KTOPL to get the assigned COA
4) In CSKB Table Cost Element Category depends on both Cost Element and Controlling Area. So does a Cost Element can be Primary Cost Element for one Controlling Area which happens to be GL Account and Secondary Cost Element for some controlling Areas.
You cannot create a secondary cost elemant using a key matching with an GL code in cross company controlling. In case of both company codes assigned to different controlling areas this can be possible
5) Are there any Company Codes under the Chart Of Accounts which doesn't belong to any of the Controlling Area and doesn't have any Cost Elements.
Only In case of CO module is not active for the a company code
Note: If you have more queries, post it separately rather than asking all in one thread. and be specific with your requirement with the actual scenario.
Thanks,

Same Cost Element in multiple Controlling Areas

Can a same Cost Element under the Chart Of Accounts(CSKA) used in multiple controlling areas under the Chart Of Accounts or it should be used only by one Controlling Area. Then as Cost Element category is under CSKB (Cost elements (data dependent on controlling area)) it depends on Cost element and controlling area. So can a Cost elemtnt in different controlling areas has different cost element category. Is that possible as in that case COst ELement becomes GL Account in one Controlling area and doesnt have GL Acvcount in another.

Yes. Provided it's the same chart of accounts being used across all of the controlling areas. In the case of primary cost elements, you will still need to individually create the equivalent G/L accounts in every applicable company though.

How do I migrate Cost Element Groups in a batch ?

I want to migrate Cost Element Groups from 4.7 to ECC6. We've been exporting/importing them individually, but is there a faster way to grab multiple groups and move them to the new environment ?
One thing of note is that the Chart of Accounts is changing between 4.7 and ECC6 and named differently.
