Standalone Scenario - Company Code, Cost center table

Hi,
Can any one please let me know the company code, cost center table used in standalone scenario.
Regards,
SAP Guy.

Hi,
The account assignment, Product category and Logical system combination is maintained in SPRO.
SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Cross Application Basic settings > Account Assignment
There are three settings which you maintain there :
1. Account assignment categories
2. Define G/L account for product category , Logical system and Account assignment category
3. Maintain local accounting data.
These are the three settings which you maintain for account assignment determination.
Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.

Authorization issue with Company code/ Cost center combination

Hi,
I am currently trying to restrict user access by company code and cost center combination.
We have roles defined for each user and I am trying to use the standard authorization object A_S_KOSTL in this role . It seems that since it is not a 'maintianed' object no activity can be assigned to this autorization object.
currently the values are :
company Code : 1110 , 1112, 1114
Cost Center : *
i am getting sy-subrc as 0 even when i test for company code : 1110 for a user with the above role.
My code is :
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'A_S_KOSTL'
    ID 'BUKRS' FIELD '1110'.
F sy-subrc EQ 0.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'A_S_KOSTL'
ID 'KOSTL' FIELD '*' .
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    MESSAGE 'Success with KOSTL also' TYPE 'S'.
ELSE.
      MESSAGE 'Success with BUKRS only' TYPE 'S'.
ENDIF.
ELSE.
      MESSAGE 'Failure' TYPE 'S'.
ENDIF .
I get a subrc NE 0 for the KOSTL part. The test passes for BUKRS.
Please advise on how to proceed.
Thanks and Regards
Soumya

Okay, I misread the "NE". Sorry.
Have you done a syntax check on it?
Also compare to:
AUTHORITY-CHECK <object>
ID 'KOSTL' '*'.
I cannot confess to ever have done a "full" AUTHORITY-CHECK myself, but it is most likely the same as with DUMMY -> you should not use the FIELD statement as '' value if the data element does not know what a '' is...

CK666 error in cross company code cost estimate

Dear All,
We have activated multiple valuations/transfer prices : legal, group and profit center valuations.
We perform cost estimate run in ck40n for profit center valuation and get error
Material 20000035/plant FZ03: Transfer price could not be found.
Message no. CK666
Diagnosis
When switching profit center A ->B (from the material component to the costing object), a transfer price could not be determined for transfer price variant 0 in respect of material 20000035 in plant 1.
System Response
If you carry out costing for a profit center valuation, material 20000035 goes into the cost estimate without a value.
If you create a cost estimate for group valuation, profit from material 20000035 is not transferred into the cost component split.
Procedure
Check the settings for transfer price variant 0.
We have checked this material. Manufacturing plant belongs to company code A.
To get cost estimate for plant 2 which belongs to company code B we use procurement types in material master.
It requires now transfer price variant. But we do not want to use this functionality.
How can we solve this issue?
With best regards,
Kamila.

HI Kamila.
There is a difference in the way PCA handles determining costs:
If transfer prices are activated it's necessary to determine either a transfer price via pricing or to exclude the relevant material
from the transfer prices scenario via user-exit 'EXIT_SAPLPCRW_003'.
Please note that the determination of a transfer price and the creation of additional PCA lines are independent of each other. You cannot control the determination of a transfer price by means of your 0KEK settings. So if you want that no transfer price is used for a material please use exit 'EXIT_SAPLPCRW_003' here. Pricing will then not be called and the system automatically uses the current
material price from the profitcenter view.
Please have a look at the note [458543 |https://css.wdf.sap.corp/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=0000458543]which provides further information regarding this exit.

NEW GL: profit center allocation cross company codes possible?

F-Hi,
In PCA the allocations are postes by company code - also the tracing factors are calculated by company code. In NEW GL, can the profit center allocation (transaction FAGLGA11) be done cross company, including the calculation of the tracing factors. Here is my example.
profit center     Company code     cost center     Posted amounts
P00010     02                           200010     1.000,00
P00010     03                           300010     2.000,00
P00010     05                           500010     4.000,00
P00010 Total                                   7.000,00
P40100     02                          240100        10,00
P40100     03                           340100         5,00
P40100     05                          540100         5,00
P40100 Total                                       20,00
P40200     02                           240200        20,00
P40200     03                           340200        30,00
P40200     05                           540200        20,00
P40200 Total                                       70,00
Purpose of the cycle in PCA:
Split the amount of profit center P00010 on to P40100 and P40200
with a ratio of what is posted already on those 2, cross company
So we should expect to split the 7.000 in to
     20/(20+70) from 7.000 = 1.555 for P40100
     70/(20+70) from 7.000 = 5.445 for P40200
But the program allocates by company code:
split     1.000     by ratio 10/20
     2.000     by ratio 5/30
     4.000     by ratio 5/20
OR, because we are in NEW GL, is the solution a rollup ledger with a global company code?
Thanks
Yves Kieckens

Hi,
I have sent an OSS message and they replied that it is not possible. There is a note about classic PCA indicating that cross company is not possible, and the same concept is valid for NEW GL.
I haven't done the solution via rollup ledger because not enough experience in my network.
We have done some specific programming in the upload of the statistical key figures as a workaround solution.

Add freight cost in a cross company code scenario using a costing sheet

Dear Forum,
I will like to add freight cost to a material using a costing sheet. The freight percentage is very easy to add and works fine when the cost is added in the company code costing. My problems start when I want to add the freight in the cross-company code costing. I want to setup a cross-company code costing where the freight cost is added to the material in the buying company code and not on the selling company code. The cross-company code costing is setup using special procurement costing keys.
In below costing (CK11N) the procurement costing key is not used.
From the itemization it is shown that purchase info.record 5300067643 is read and the price of 12,97 is determined. There is added 10% in freight coming from the costing sheet.
The freight is shown in the cost component structure as well.
The special procurement type is now changed from ‘20’ to ‘AT´ on the MRP2 screen in the material master. The procurement is now pointing to an internal plant called ‘DCN’.
The costing of material 105050 is now repeated. I get the expected result from changing the procurement key, as I can now see the material is sourced from plant ‘DCN’. DCN is sourcing the material from BJ07, but that is not relevant for the example.
If I now look at the itemization again on the costing in BGA1 I now see that the price is not coming from the info.record. It is the costing in DCN that is used.
I will still like to add the freight cost in BGA1.
How do I add freight cost in BGA1 when I at the same time want to have the costing to be taken from plant DCN?
Please let me know if you need additional information on the customizing setup of the system.
Best regards,
Kim Hjorth Poulsen

Hi Srinu,
Thank You for a prompt feedback.
I have tried to follow Your advise. The special procurement costing key is customized like below.
I have updated the special procurement costing key on the costing 1 view of the material master. When costing the material it is using the special procurement key. This can be seen from the qty. structure tab in CK11N.
It is also costing cross company as intended.
The itemization looks like below.
and the cost component structure looks like below.
Unfortunately the freight is not added in the costing in BGA1.
I noticed that when the costing is made without special procurement key the costing sheet used in the costing is for material components. If the costing is made with the special procurement keys the costing sheet used is for finished and semi-finished materials. The customizing in both of the costing sheets are the same, but only when costing is without the special procurement keys the freight is added.
So unfornutely Your suggestion did not solve the problem.
Best regards,
Kim

Changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code

Hi,
Due to my client requirement, in the middle of the year, we need to change the controlling area from being same as company code to cross company code controlling area. Although the currency is same. We are going to create a new company code. Is the changing controlling area settings possible to do? what are the precautions and changes need to be taken?
One more question, we need to change the company code when the new company code is created in the system in Cost Center Masters in the middle of the year. Is this possible after changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code. Right now company code is not appearing in the cost center master.
Thanks & Regards,
Saidarao

Hi,
If both companies having transaction data its not possible,Normally before defining Organisational Strucutre only we have to deside both companies is assigning same controlling are or have to maitain separately for this we have to compare the Fiscal year,Operating chart of accounts ,if both having same then we will assign both the company codes to one controlling area if these two companies having different currencies also its not a problem.When we creating Controlling Area we have to choose option of controlling area as same company code (if one company code one controlling Area) for example if you assigning two companies then we have to use cross company code cost accounting.If u need any further information let me know.

Satya

Override Company and Cost Center for FI Posting from HR Payroll

Hello all. I have this scenario with a company that was merged into another and retroactive payroll occurs for absences and extra time in the "old" company, but the "old" merged company is closed so no postings can occur.
I also found this unanswered post: How to Override Company and Cost Center for FI Posting from HR Payroll
We suppose that retroactive differences could be accounted in the new company code but I didnu2019t found any way to do it even in the BADI SMOD_PCPO0001 I couldnu2019t find a way to change the company code/cost center....
Does anyone have dealt with the same problem? What is the solution?

Amosha, thank you for your response. Here is PCP0 that shows what I mean by 'header company code' that I don't see how to change (I re-ran pd 26 2008--bi-weekly payroll, btw):

Error in document: HRPAY 0000008174
The CO account assignment object belongs to company code 0001, not 0057
Company code 0057 is now closed and has been merged into 0001. Cost center 14515 in the above doc was populated by my clone of RPCIPE00 and call to my BAdI which retrieved current company and cost center from PA0001. You can see from above that the 'header' data still shows 0057 and indeed, my version of RPCIPE00 only changes P_ITEM-BUKRS, P_ITEM-KOSTL and P_ITEM-SGTXT. It looks to me that fm HRPP_TRANSLATE_FICO gets the 'header' company code afresh. I was planning to leave WPBP-BUKRS (and all other Payroll data) alone (ie, not override company code).
As for your other question, we post retros to /551 and /552.
Thanks again.

Derive profit center in cross company code transaction into clearing items

Dears,
I have one condition where I want to copy profit center from first line item to second line item in a cross company code transaction for example.
I have two company codes XX10 and XX20
two profit centers XX50 for company code XX10 and XX60 for company code XX20
I am creating cross company code transaction. Now I want when giving XX50 for company code XX10 so upon creating cross company line items this profit center given in first line be copied automatically in the cross company code line item accordingly.
example:
Dr company code XX10 with profit center XX50
Cr company code XX20 with profit center XX60
Required:
These profit centers be copied automatically in the cross company line items automatically. I am using same controlling area as the company code not cross company codes.

Ya right , but when i am trying to post the enteries , the clearing item is having different profit center ( i.e which i have assigned in the t.code FAGL3KEH ), but the vendor line item is still taking the dummy profit center.
Vendor line item should actually take the profit center from the clearing line item ... but it it not taking ..

Cross Company code posting is available for recurring payment setup?

Hi All,
I could not find the cross company code field for recurring payment setup with useing T code FBD1.
Vendor is created in paying company code 1000, however, the rent has be booked to cross company code (1001) cost center (2000).
So, while trying to do recurring payment setup, I could not see the field.
I know the alternative option that i can use the "Cost Center(1000)" is assigned to CoCd 1000 and do recurring setup without useing cross company code, later i can post the manual journal for correction (as below), however, I do not want use this option.
Dr/Cr       CoCd                         GL account            Cost Center           Amount
Dr            1001                         Rent account          2000                      XXXXX
Cr            1000                         Rent account          1000                      XXXXX
Please let me know your thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Srinivas

Hi, ok17 is not for cross company,but for CO-FI real time integration.
Ex. you maintained for "RKL     Actual activity allocation" Dr 123 Cr 567
Then while posting activity allocation in CO you'll get posting like Dr 123 Cr 567   (with corresponding CO objects)

Cross-company code postings - FI validation

Hi,
We start using the cross-company code postings (transaction OBYA) between company code A and company code B and have to give authorizations both company codes to the Finance users. The idea is to have a set of G/L accounts which are allowed to be used when company code A and B are posted via cross-company code posting.
SAP recommends to implement a validation in FI to restrict the Intercompany scenatios. I attempted to create a FI validation for complete document (call-point 3) with no success:
1)
IC Rule: BSEG-BUKRS = A and BSEG-BUKRS = B and BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC rule
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
When I test it, the Intercompany clearing account configured in OBYA, and which is in ACCOUNTSET, shows up in the error message, which unwanted.
2)
IC Rule 1: BKPF-BUKRS = '0017' AND BKPF-BUKRS = '0005'
IC Rule 2: BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC Rule 1 --> IC Rule 2
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
No error message is issued at all, even if the G/L account is not in ACCOUNTSET.
Please advise what I am missing.

Hi Nitin,
Thank you for your feeback.
I just wanted to clarify that the cross-company code posting is when company code A can intitiate a posting to company code B simultaneously (for example Intercompany re-charge, cash concentration, etc.). The trigger for cross-company code posting is the company code field on the line item. If company code A is in the header (BKPF-BUKRS) and at least one document line item filled up as company code B, the system created two documents for each company code, offsetting the Intercompany clearing account, configured in OBYA.
For example:
Posting via FB50: Leading company code = company code A (BKPF-BUKRS)
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200; Company code A (as a default)
Item 2: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100; Company code B (manually changed)
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300; Company code A (as a default)
The systen creates two postings:
Posting 1: company code A
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200;
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300;
Item 2: Debit ; I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
Posting 2: company code B
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100;
Item 2: Credit;I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
The only connection between the two is the cross-company code number (BKPF-BVORG), which assigned by the system once posted, as a logical connection.
I guess we could use a dedicated document type. If that's the case, how would the validation work then?
Coudl you please share more details on the BTE option?
Thank you,
Inna

Cross company code validation in CO Area

Dear All Experts,
I am having one query regarding cross company code validation in CO area. I have ticked Cross company code validation in controlling area, and it is working perfect.
we have total 11 company codes. 10 for US & 1 for Canada. Say 1001 to 1010 US company codes & Canda it is 1101.
The requirement is :-
Now client wants to post cross company code transaction within these 10 US company codes and it should not throw an error ( Ideally which is giving right now ). It should give error only when posting to US company code transaction and Canada Cost Center or Internal Order.
Can we restrict the company code for cross posting validation ? OR Can selected company codes set for validation indicator ?
Experts guidance will be great on this.
Regards,
Sharvari Joshi.

Dear,
Murali.
Thanks for your reply.
As you said :- Validation check applies for all the company codes which are assigned to your controlling area.
Means simply we can not apply this option to selective company codes, Right ?
Once it is ticked it is applicable to all company codes.
Regards,
Sharvari Joshi.

Cross company code payment - Reallocation of discount

I have a peculiar requirement and I am out of my wits to find a solution. I am confident that our Forum members will give me a solution to this.
The scenarios is like this. There are 122 company codes and there is lot of cross company code payments. Meaning one company code say '0001' pays on behalf of the other 121 company codes. At the time of payment the following enter is passed:
              In the paying company code:
             Debit Inter-company customer
             Credit External Vendor
               In the other company codes:
              Debit Expense (A cost center is assigned to this GL)
              Credit Inter-company Vendor
At the time of payment to the external vendor the following entry is passed:
             Debit External Vendor
             Credit Bank.
So far it is good. But now if the Vendors term allows discount of say 2% then at the time of payment the entry generated is :
               In the paying company code
              Debit External Vendor
              Credit Discount
              Credit Bank
           No entry in the other company codes.
In case the payment term of the vendor allows discount then the client wants the discount to be posted as follows:
                 In the paying company code
              Debit External Vendor
              Credit Inter-company customer
               (in the proportion of each company code's share of expense)
              Credit Bank
                In the other company codes
               Debit Inter-company Vendor
               Credit Expense account (the one which was originally debited)
                                                   (the same cost center should also be credited)
How can this be achieved. I know there is no standard functionality to do this. But can somebody suggest a logic for the Z program.
Thanks in advance.
Kalyan

Guys, be specific in your answers. If you do not know, please refrain from answering.
I am really sorry to state that in this site and also in other similar websites, people just answer questions without knowing what they are talking about.
I can understand, novices asking questions. But the same novices should not try to answer questions which they do not understand.
I am sorry to make these comments. But I want this to be a quality site where Practitioners can come and find real answers to questions. I am sure there will be people out their who will support my viewpoint. This will help make the forum more useful. Otherwise somebody seeking an answer to his/her question may spend hours and end up without an answer.

Document splitting issues in Cross company code scenario

Hi
We have the following business scenario:
(Please note : Document splitting with Real time CO-FI integration is active)
1)one company(say, Co.code X) purchases on behalf of another group
company(Co.code Y)
2)the cost center of Co.code Y is given in the 'Account assignment' tab
in the Purchase order created in 'X'.
3)The PO is created in foreign currency
4)So, when the Goods receipt happens, the expense posting is happening
in Co.code Y and the GRIR entry is in X.
5)When the invoice is posted in co.code X, the Vendor Open item (in
foreign currency) gets created in X.
6)The problem occurs when Forex.valuation is done for the Vendor open
item. The Forex.gain/loss is getting posted in Co.code X by deriving
the Cost object from the expense posting in Co.code Y. Now, the system
is giving an error message 'CO object doesnt belong to X co.code'
I beleive this is the way document splitting normally works by deriving
the CO object form the original expense posting onto the subsequent
documents but I guess, it is failing in this scenario. Please let me
know if there is a work around to resolve this issue.
Regards
Ravi

We normally do the independent splitting of documents in respective company codes (This being the limitation mentioned by SAP for cross company code postings).
In the document split configuration, for Define document splitting rule, check for the leading item for cross company code transactions, and check for the item categories to be edited. The following two entries will be there
1100 Company Code Clearing CC = CC of leading item
1100 Company Code Clearing CC <> CC of leading item
In case of independent splitting, remove the first entry and check.
Thanks and Regards,
Mamta Sarda

Restrict cross CO area postings and allow cross company code postings

" There are two Controlling areas CA01 and CA02, for the controlling area CA02 the field CO code validation is inactive to allow cross company code postings ie., (Cost center created in one company code can be used as cost object in other company code ) Also this allows any WBS element created in controlling area CA01 as cost object in any of the company codes assigned in controlling area CA02,
Due to usage of WBS element which is created in CA01 controlling area as cost object in company code belongs to controlling area CA02, business is facing problem while doing the settlement run with error message " Document data for list of origins does not exist"
So, I have activated the field Co code validation in the controlling area CA02, which stopped the usage of WBS element between controlling areas. Also this had restricted usage of cost object between company codes with in controlling area CA02.
Now is there anyway to allow cost object usage between company codes assigned in one controlling area (CA02) and restrict usage of WBS element created in controlling area CA01 in any company code assigned in controlling area CA02.

Hi,
As you have already activated the Co Code validation you cant restrict that only to WBS. But you can have another option
Use the validation process to restrict these errors
This may help

Shantanu
