Creation of new cost center record

Hi All,
Using PP01 we are copying the current cost center record and changing the enddate to 12/31/9999 on the new record. but when i go into PA30 to look at them, it is creating an extra record with different date and even it is not allowing me to delete the record (Message as : Cost Center dones not exist).
Appreicate your help.

Hi,
I am not sure wheather we (HR) create the cost centers .It is to be done thro T.Code KS01 (FICO)., and anyway if you are able to then not able to delete it then go to T.Code kch6n..again a FI transaction select extras from the menu bar and click on 'Ambiguity' which should solve your problem

How to use new cost center field, new profit center field, new account field?

As I create a new change request of adding new GL account, or that of new cost center, or that of new profit center, I normally enter the new GL code GL01, or new cost center CC01 or profit center code PC01 in "General Data" section on the change requst screen, these codes (GL01, CC01, PC01) are landed in ECC upon data replication.
I do see there is another field called "New Account" of GL change request, or "New Cost Center" of CC change request, or "New Profit Center" of PC change requst all of which is under "Administrative Data" section. I have never used it. but I was wondering what the purpose it will serve and how should I use them.
Please advise,
Thanks,
LUO.

Hi Kiran,
Thanks for the info. I don't quite understand though. could you tell me more about the usage of each? Why it is used when GL or CC or PC is blocked? Would the new cost center code entered replace old cost center master record?
Thanks,
LUO

Prasad,
I knew how to add char to cube in BW.But i am not sure about BCS .
- What's the difference in assigning the infoobject (CostCenter) to the infocube, doesn't matter if it's the basic (ordinary) or the BCS totals cube?
I will follow as you said.
- Taking the BW310 or SEM240 is very useful.
Once it is done then what are the next steps need to do it.
- What's done? What's the question?
I am assigning points to you
- I do not need the points assigned for nobody knows what. Feel free to unassign them.

hi Anil,
Check your settings in the Transaction code OKB9. In this transaction, default cost centers are maintained for each Company Code and Cost element.
Else you have defined default cost centers in your Cost Element. In such Case, use t-code KA02 and change the cost Center
If you satisfied with the reply then plese assign points.

To find out recently new cost center

Hi all,
I have a problem that I had updated one request new data(it's like 200904 transaction data) to cube,
while the inexistent cost center in master data is added(0Costcenter).
    The problem arise,how could i find out which new cost center is added to 0costcenter,because I
need to listed those new cost center to user.
    Thanks.

in the maintain master data screen for cost center give all the attributes a restriction to initial value.
once you get cost centers search with them in the infocube and take out final list from there.
or you write a abap report to check cost centers which have all fields initial and get it in a file.
data: itab type standard table of /Bi0/pcostcenter with header line,
        itab2 type standard table of /Bi0/pcostcenter with header line
select * from /Bi0/pcostcenter
into table itab
where objvers = 'A'.
loop at itab.
if itab-BUS_AREA is initial.
if itab-0COMP_CODE is initial.
.... keep checking for all the attributes.
     .... if all atributes are initial
      append itab to itab2
endif.
endif.
endloop.

New Cost center Time-interval getting deleted automatically in Asset master

Hi Friends,
While changing the cost center in the asset master data with a new time interval, the check-box 'Deletable' gets automatically ticked and the new interval gets deleted and the new cost center is updated in the old time interval. The check-box is greyed out and cannot be edited.
The right-most check-box in the 'More Intervals' button in the second tab of the asset master is the 'Deletable' check-box (Field Name: RA02S-XDEL).
Please help me to make the check-box editable or help me to remove the default tick in the check-box.
Regards,
Shilpi

Hi Murlidhar,
Thanks a lot for the response.
If the check-box gets deselected when we press the 'Save' button, still the new interval is getting automatically deleted.
Earlier this was not happening, the new and the old interval was getting displayed separately. There are instances in the system, where both old and new interval is displayed.
Of late, we notice that the new interval is getting deleted as soon as we save it.
Please help to retain both the intervals.
Regards,
Shilpi

New Cost Center trigger

I need sample code to implement a trigger so that when a new cost center (dept) value to the accounting flexfield is added, then it fires off and creates the corresponding row in the fnd_shorthand_flex_aliases table
Does any one know how to create it?
Thanks,
Chiru

Hi All,
I create a trigger to insert data into the fnd_shorthand_flex_aliases table, if a new flex_value is created in the fnd_flex_values and fnd_flex_values_tl.
However, I am getting the error:
ORA-04091: table fnd_flex_values is mutating, trigger/function may not see it.
More than likely it is due to the fact that I am trying to query the table fnd_flex_values to insert into the fnd_shorthand_flex_aliases table, while inserting into it at the same time.
Does any one know how to get around this?
Thanks,
Chiru

New Cost Center

Dear All,
Scenario :
New cost center or new location or new office has built by organization , how to handle this scenario without interference with existing database entries ?
Is the following option is correct ?
To create new database and punching entries in that database for new location or new branch.

Hi
Thats purely ur managment policy and decisson based.
See as u said by defining numbering series, Diff G/L acc, Cost Centre,whse we can achive simply, finally management will get consoldiated P&L as well Profit Centre wise also for all Profit centre wise...
If they want to maintain different DB then that also ok, finally there is no option for consildaation the P&L,TB without Some addons....so this factor u have to look when u r going for different DB for same Business process.
Some Companies will have lot of constraints like this branch sales details, customers and their details should not be shown to other branches but to achive this in default B1 it is tough to achive...so u have to think in multiple angle which is best.
Cheers

Creation Of new profit center group

Dear Experts,
I would like to know who will create profit center group. What is the role of an abaper in creation of profit center group. How much time will it take to create a new profit center group.

Hi,
Certainly, not. It's not a major development, but a standard data maintenance. Even for reporting, standard ones, the creation of a new group does not mean additional development, as it will be automatically reflexed in the reports.

Creation & Assignment of Cost Center?

Hello Experts,
I have done all the configuration in SAP HCM but I don't have any knowledge about Cost center.
So please guide me how to create Cost Center? and with whom it should be assigned?
Because at the time of hiring employee cost center is required in IT0001.
Regards
Rohit

Hi Rohit,
Create cost center via KS01.
Assigning cost center to org unit or position is your company's decision.
We are assigning cost centers to positions since our org units and cost centers are not totally in -line.

Creation of new vendor master record

When I assign Account Group, getting following error "Acc. group uses internal no. assignments, leave blank".
if leave blank; asking to enter account group. Can anyone suggest how to select external number assignment while creating a new account group?
Edited by: Kushal Pal on Jun 11, 2011 5:46 PM

Hi Atif,
I have solved the problem myself. we assign external numbers in the customization through SPRO u2013 SAP reference IMG u2013 Finance Accounting u2013 Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable u2013 Vendor Accounts u2013 Master Data u2013 Preparation for Creating Vendor Master Data u2013 Create Number Ranges for Vendor Accounts ans selecting Ext check box as first step.
In the second step, by selecting "Assign Number Ranges to Vendor Account Groups" in the same customization.
Your suggestion was helpful but I had already worked out. XKN1 is the correct Trans. to look into assigned ranges.
Thanks.
