Profit Center value for Creation of Cost Center in MDG F

Hi
I am using MDG-F 6.1. I want to create cost center using change request type OG_W003 ( Cost Center single processing) without uploading intial data from ECC check table ( CEPC- Procit Center Master Data ).
Is this possible as there is warning message while creation of CC?
As there is warning message befor submitting of CR as
'Field "Profit Center": Field should be filled because Profit Center Accounting is active'
If we go ahead for with final processing then again one warning message
'The status of change request 86 does not allow for object changes'
After Approval active CC stores in MDG database table and not replicated to ECC even assigned Edition with flag'Immediate replicate' .
Also one more question How referance data ( Like Controlling Area/Company Codes) are retrived in MDG F in case of add on deployement?
Does intial upload is requird for this as well?
In ECC it is possible to create CC without PC.

Hello Sanjay
For Interface and for ALE setup Global company code is must. You are dealing with cross-company transfers since you are using MDG and ECC. In the ALE distribution layer, it is required to set up the global company code for the program to understand for which company code the master data is created. This setting will not affect any process. Tcode- ob72 and obb5.

Org Unit inheritance link to Parent Cost Center - is this Config?

Hi
We started at a new client and have difficulty maintaining the Org Structure A 011 relationships to child Org Units. The system undoes our implicit links. We want the implicit links to be there and not inherited. Is it possible to switch off the inheritance in config?
Please assist/advise.
Thank you, Adrian

what do you mean when you say the system 'undoes' your implicit links? Did you mean the system undoes the inherited cc value by using the explicit cc-assignment done at an org unit level? if yes that is how sap works,... the options are
a. do not do explicit creation of cost center to org unit . that way assigning a cost center at the top org unit will suffice as that will be inherited to all org units down the structure. But this is not a workable business scenario at all.
b. determine the explicit cost center assignments at each org unit level and do the assignment accordingly.
lastly : I dont think inheritence of cost center is something you can deactivate in img.
cheers

Changes to Profit center assigned to cost center

Hi
We have a scnario in which the profit center assigned to the cost center master has to be changed. We have been advised also to change the validity period of the same from the date of change of the profit center .However, the cost center has been used to for some data postings with the old profit center maintained in the cost center master. Now my query is:
1. What is the impact of changing the profit center in cost center master? In our case, some data has been posted to the cost center when the old profit center was maintained.
2. Why should we change the validity period of the cost center after changing the profit center assigned to the cost center?
3. Also, what is the way to transfer the entries which have been posted to the old profit center to the new profit center?
Regards
Sanil Bhandari

hi,
1) The impact of profit center is more in the cost center. when ever we assign profit center to cost center. the cost will be updated automatically. so there is no direct posting in profit center only statstical posting are generated.
2) second one when we want to create profit center first chek it out profit center valid and upto. if same is not maintained in creation of cost center . so u must have to change the validity periods
3) i am not sure this one i thing 7KEH OR 1KEF TC is there any way tommorow i will give the answer this questions.
if my answers are wrong plz correct and replay to my id [email protected]
thank you

Company code feild in cost center master data urgent plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

hi
iam not able to find company code feild in cost center master data. how to make it appear

Hi Santosh,
Please check whether How many company codes are assigned to your controlling Area.
If it is more than one, then the Company code field will come at the time of creation of Cost Center.
If it is only one company code assigned to Controling Area then the Company Code filed will not be visable.

Hi,
The transaction me21n uses the authorization object A_S_KOSTL for cost
center. However, the authorization object A_S_KOSTL is not related to
the cost center that is displayed in the account assignment view of th
purchase order item, but its scope is to limit the access to fixed
assets belonging to the specified cost center (see the note 856248).
There is no standard authorization object that you can use from
transaction me21n to validate the cost center that you see in the
account assignment view at item level. The same can be said about the
purchase requisition creation (me51n).
So, I have three options for you to consider.
First Option:
There is an existing possibility to perform user defined checks during
all kinds of postings which finally lead costs in CO. With transaction
OKC7 you may define a validation which is also processed during
purchasing. You can explore the possibility of achieving the
functionality you need by making customizing changes using transaction
OKC7.
Second Option:
You could use userexit enhancement MEREQ001. For further information
please see note 310154.
Third Option:
Also, you may consider instead of an authorization check for cost
centers you can activate an authorization check for G/L accounts.
Therefore the following settings are required:
I. Customizing -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase
    Order -> Set Up Authorization Check for G/L Accounts:
    activate the G/L account authorization check for the required
    company code
II. Transaction FS02 -> View: Control data: enter the authorization
    group

Defaulting a Cost Center during PR/PO creation for Indirect Materials

Dear Gurus,
When creating a PR or PO for indirect materials (No Material Master/Numer), is there a way to default a Cost Center (maybe based on the Material Group) in the PR/PO during creation ?
I know that there is a way to default the GL Account Code via Entry Aids. Is there something similiar for Cost Center ?
Thanks

I don;t think it is possible via config but you can do it with User exit where you can insert the logic for account assignment category and Material group combination and material number is blank than insert the particular cost center into the cost center field.
use PR item level user exit for PR and same way for PO.

Co code not seen for cost center master data creation in OKEON

hI:
In org tab of Cost center master data creation while configuring cost center hierarchy in OKEON i can not see organization tab. I have checked in OKKP Co area is assigned to co code but still the issue persist.
Br

hi
you mean the tab is not displayed? strange, it seems that there should be a screen layout to control the ui, or any transaction variant is recorded. I tried in my side, the tab is there.
@ Murali, you are right, but in that tab, not only company code can be configured, but also business area, functional area etc.

Cost center locked but SAP allows for PO creation

Dear All,
We have a requirement such that whenever a cost center is locked, system should not allow users to create PRs / POs for locked cost center. I tried it through authorization control, but in MM there is no object for cost center.
Could experts tell me the way in which this control can be acheived.

Please try out with some enhancement and let us know if your requirement can be met or not.
I think the appropriate Exit would be MM06E005\MM06E007. Please reach out to a ABAPer
and put a simple logic in the code which would prevent the creation of PO when the COST CENTER are locked.
If the above suggestion is not working then you can put up the logic when the PO are on the
verged of being released after creation. In this way the PO belonging to locked Cost Center will not be released at all.

Error In Cost Center Hierarchy Creation

Hi Guru's
Error In Cost Center Hierarchy Creation
Our Business scenario is we have controlling area 1000, under that we have cost center Group as ABC lower level to that we create each business wise in lower level like 1100, 1200, 1300 under this we create 110010 for production 110020 employee 110030 dummy so on, by mistake the client has created 1400 below level to 1000 now all cost center amount is booked in this is reflecting in 1400 and as well in ABC now I need to move all 1400 cost centers below ABC please let me know how to go about this.
Regards,
Bhaskar

Hi,
So, if it's standard hierarchy go to OKEON and just drag-and-drop this group under ABC; simple as that. In KSH2 (if it's 'alternative' group) the technology of moving is different, but still quite obvious: select the group you want to move and select the new placement.

Restricting cost center selection during creation of reservation

Hi,
We had a requirement to restrict the selection of cost center during creating a reservation. An user should be restricted in selecting any other cost center which does not belongs to his department. Since the restriction was not possible in standared/available authorization objects, we have created a customized object thru SU2. The Z object is available in role maintenance (PFCG) which we assigned to the object class MM_B and maintained the relevant cost center value.
Still it is not giving the desired result as selection of any aother cost center (which is mot mentioned under the Z object) is permitted while creating a reservation.
Request your valuable update in fixing the issue.
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Vinod,
How to manipulate the screens from transaction MB21 to avoid your
issue?
a) by transaction OXK1:
In customizing transaction 'OXK1' you can see which screens are
available and in which order they are selected by the program.
This transaction also allows to add customer-defined screens, to
change the priorities and to de-activate standard screens.
So if you create yourself a screen with all the fields you
would like to see you can assign it in OXK1. You would have to
set the priority key so that program would choose your screen rather
than the standard screens.
Transaction OXK1:
The coding block searches through the existing subscreens for the one
which fulfills most requirements. The "Priority" serves as fine tuning
in the search procedure: 1 is the highest priority, 9 the lowest.
The system searches for the most suitable subscreen according to the
following strategy:
First, it searches for subscreens containing all the account assignment
fields required. If there is more than one, it selects the one with the
highest priority.
If this is unsuccessful, the system then looks for subscreens containing
all of the obligatory fields, or as many of them as possible. The
subscreen containing the most obligatory fields is selected.
If two subscreens contain the same number of obligatory fields, then the
one containing the most required account assignment fields is selected.
If there is still more than one, the selection is made according to the
priority.
b) by user exit or BADI
Enhancement to manipulate reservation data is MBCF0007 and the user
exit is EXIT_SAPMM07R_001.
MBCF0007 Customer function exit: Updating a reservation
MBCF0010 Customer exit: Create reservation BAPI_RESERVATION_CREATE1
MBCF0011 Read from RESB and RKPF for print list in MB26
There is a BADI as well:
MB_RESERVATION_BADI MB21/MB22: Check and Complete Dialog Data
I hope this information helps you.
Best Regards !
