Create New Cost centers in HR Module

Dear friends,
i wan't to create new cost centers in SAP
we have different Profiles in our company like GSM,WLN,CDMA,WLNGSM,CDMAWLN,GSM+WLN etc and that in differernt locations
i wan't to create cost centers so that any new employee created should fall under some Cost center.
thanks

Hi,
A small correction to your understanding.
If you go to PO13 and assign the Cost Distribution, it means --> you are assing the cost center to the 'Position', but not to the employee.
Now, while Hiring an employee.. you will be giving above "Position" (which is already assigned with Cost Distribution).. The cost center for the position will become Master Cost center for the employee.
Example
Lets say you have a cost center assigned to the Position and it was your Master Cost Center.
Now If you assign one more Cost Center by using IT0027 in PA30... It becomes your Master Cost Center but not the one assigned to the Position.
Have a good day...!

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.

Regarding Mirror Cost Centers issue.

Hello SAP Experts,
Let me tell you some background of our requirement. We are having our new Company codes in Mexico. We created new company codes as asked. now very different senario for me becasue I never came a cross like this requirement.
For Mexico company codes we have different Cost centers. We have total 4 company codes. Now we have one plant in USA that is belongs to Mexico. We created new cost centers for Plant that located in US Company code in System but physically it belongs to Mexico. We created cost centers same as in Mexico company code as like Plant that is in US Company codes. We are tyring to get mirror data in Mexico Company code from Plant located in US Company code. let me give you example
Plant in US Company code      Mexico Company codes
Cost Center 33550 R&D          Cost Center 34550 R&D
Cost Center 33551 ***.          Cost Center 34555 ***.
this example is about how we can get all the values from plant cost center that is in US Company code to Mexico Company code. We are not transfering from cost center to another cost center. This requirement is about how we will get all cost center mirror value from different company code to anothore company code. In our requirement we want to trasport all the value that is available in Plant(USA) to Mexico company code.
Issue i found out.
There are different currencies in cost center US Plant currency (USD$) and Mexico company code Cost centers have (MXN Peso). I think this will not issue becasue our group currency and controlling area currecy is (30) (USD$)
I am more concern about how should the copying cost center to cost center will work. We came out sloution to write program with help of ABAP programer. But before starting I like to know if we can see any other configruation part for the requirement
I am new to this kind of requriement please shoot with guides and some references. If you experts needs more information please let me know thank you.

Cost Centers Date

Dear Experts;
The FI consultant has created the cost centers with the Go Live date, and as you know the employees are hired from a previous period, so I have to create the positions with the hiring date.
So I've created the positions with starting date 01.01.1990, while the cost ceneters are from 01.07.2011, so whenever i'm trying to assign a cost center to a postion it gives me a msg stating that the cost center doesn't exist with that period.
And there is no option for the FI to change the cost centers date, he just has to delete the current ones and create new ones with another date.
Do you ahve another solution for that?
Regards;
Lobna

Hi Lobhna,
As a practice positions and cost center should have the same date if position date is go-live date then it would have been fine.
To avoid this issue all employees are hired in 9999999 default position and before Go-live there is an action Named as Go-live data upload where the actual positions of the person are assigned from the date of Go-live.
One is hiring action with D.O.J of employee and then another action Go-live data upload which sets a cut-off date for Masterdata that all masterdata will be valid from the Go-live date onwards.
In your case if you have already done the Hiring action with actual position, then ask FI if he can delete and re-create the cost centers from date of Go-live and if not then you can delete the assignement of the position with the person in po13, you can do this through LSMW or BDC. After deleting assignment you have to delete the positions through PO13 LSMW.
Then Re-create the positions again with the Go-live date and assign to Person.
All this through LSMW PO13.
Hope this helps.

Prabha

Cost Centers Issue

Dear Experts
We have difference in Cost Centers from Production and Quality.
With out creating,is there any possibility of copying the Cost Centers from Production to Quality.
Thanks & Regards
KumarRaja

Hi ,
You can even transport Master Data from Development Server to Quality and Production Servers. The transaction code to do it is OKE6 But you need to excersise lots of cautions to do this. The following note explains that -
Caution
If, prior to the transport, you have already created master data in the target system (whether manually or through a different transport), this data is lost when the transport takes place.
Since in the target system the master data but not the transaction data is deleted, transporting data into a system that already contains data can lead to inconsistencies. You should therefore maintain the master data in the target system manually.
Example
You have manually created cost centers in controlling area 0001 in the target system. You want to transport cost centers in controlling area 0001 from the Customizing clients into the target system.
If you execute the transport, the system deletes the manually-created cost centers in the target system.
The system then imports the new cost centers into the target system.
In a normal scenario , it is best to avoid taking this route and upload the master data instead of transporting it .

Venkat.

Problems after transfering Cost centers with LSMW

Hi,
I have a problem after transfering Cost Centers with LSMW.
The first Batch input run created all cost centers in one CC Group erroneously - cause they should be placed in different CC groups.
I changed LSMW settings and made another batch input run - now the Cost centers were created in proper groups. I think that I deleted all CC's created in previous batch input run, but now I am not too sure, because there is a problem...
Cost centers exist both in their proper groups and in the one group mentioned by me before. So there is such situation that Cost center appears in Standar hierarchy twice at the same time.
When I delete cost centers - they are removed from their proper groups but the CC entry remains in that one group - all CC are there inactive.
How can I get rid of them. I tried deleting them - but it's impossible - the system doesn't see them.
When I run the batch input again - the same cost centers appear in proper groups and at the same time they become active in the one group. The standard hierarchy group is not UNIQE.
Please advice me how to delete these entries from standard hierachy.
Best wishes,
Karol

Hi,
Always recommended before loading into live system: upload in test system and check. check again just to make sure all is correct before real load.
In your case you probably would have been best to do a group change after incorrect upload.
Do Ambiguity check in stadnard hierarchy to explore all incorrect entries. Depending on your version yo ucan change in that function (ECC6) ore need to run a report. Before running the report check that CC master records have correct entry. The report is RKCORRH1
Again, try in QA first and run in Test Run
Good luck

Transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers

Hi,
When I run transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers, all my offsetting accounts (accumulated depreciation accounts) are shown except for the ones for asset classes:
- Buildings
- PC & Small Applications
On the FI side, I can see transactions being posted to their relative accumulated depreciation accounts but I do not see this on the CO side when transaction KSB1 is executed. I have checked the config and the account assignments look correct. Also, the assets created have cost centers assigned to them.
Could you please help!
Thanks,
- Deki

Hi Murali,
I have one depreciation expense account (P/L Account) which is also a cost element.
During depreciation run, the different asset classes are supposed to hit the depreciation account above and their corresponding accumulated depreciation accounts (These are Balance Sheet Accounts and I have separate accounts for each asset class .. ie: Accumulated Depreciation for Furniture and Fixture for asset class Furniture and Fixture).
Now when I run transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers, all my accumulated depreciation accounts are shown except for the ones for these asset classes:
- Buildings
- PC & Small Applications
Any thoughts on why the above aren't showing?
Thanks! I really appreciate your help!

New cost element hierarchy - how to extract

Hello,
User created new cost element hierarchy/cost element groups (KAH3).
I dont see this hierarchy in the list of available hiararchies of data source 0COSTELMNT_0102_HIER.
Shall it appear in the list automatically or I need to do custom extraction?
Thanks

Hello,
The problem is probably caused by the fact that only the highest node of the hierarchy is displayed as available for the
0COSTELMNT_0102_HIER datasource. This means that the cost element group which is displayed is not used in any other group. That is probably the reason why some of your groups are displayed as available and some of them not. You can check it in the transaction KAH3 in your OLTP system.
Select your cost element group and press the Where used button. On the next dialog box select just 'Groups' and choose ENTER. Then the groups are displayed that contain the respective group. The highest level group should be available also in BW system.
When you extract this group then you will see your group as a subnote. Please see the information SAP note 316976 on available hierarchies for CO InfoObjects incomplete.
Best Regards,
Des
