Define Profit center accouting

Dear experts!
Now, I'm getting some issue about defining profit center.
Default SAP will assign a new profit center to all company codes mapped to a given controlling area.
Really, when I create new profit center, I want to it will not assign to all company code that mapped to given controlling area.
Help me to process the issue!
Best regards, Huy

Hi
Thats standard response.. You need to uncheck the coompany codes you dont want in the new PC
You can also use KE56 for mass processing

Post balance sheet account to profit center accouting

Hi.experts.
I want to post some blance sheet accounts to profit center accounting,these account include material stock,wip. what should I do?
thanks in advance.

Hello
Balance sheet items can be transferred periodically or online in realtime
You can transfer the following balance sheet items to Profit Center Accounting in the standard SAP system at end of period:
    Payables and receivables
   Material stocks
   Assets
   Work in process
This can be done in period closing activities for AR/AP
The assignment of payables and receivables to various profit centers is basically derived from the offsetting entry line of the FI document to which they belong. It is not possible to make structural changes to them within Profit Center Accounting. If, for example, you assign a new profit center to a material, or change the derivation rules when creating sales orders, these actions do not affect the assignments of documents which have already been posted.
The payables and receivables to be divided are calculated in FI at the end of the period. To do so, call up the SAP Easy Access screen and choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Periodic Tasks ® Closing ® Regroup ® Debit Balance Sheet Account Subsequently.
Enter the company codes for which you want to perform the calculation. For these company codes, the payables and receivables are divided according to profit center and business area. The results are then saved.
You can now transfer the data to Profit Center Accounting. Do not choose the next menu option Post B/S readjustment n Financial Accounting. Instead, transfer the data in the Profit Center Accounting application menu, under Actual Postings ® Period Closing ® Transfer Payables/Receivables
You obtain a list of all the company codes in the active controlling area. Select the desired company codes and the period and fiscal year which you want to transfer to Profit Center Accounting.
The system then posts the payables and receivables to Profit Center Accounting under the reconciliation accounts of the general ledger. No FI documents are created in the process
You can call up the function for transferring material stocks in Profit Center Accounting Customizing, under Actual Postings ® Transfer Selected Balance Sheet Items ® Set Up Material Stocks.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. Select the period to be transferred. The current period is always based on the status of Materials Management. Normally, the data from the previous period is transferred.
You access the transfer function by choosing the following path from the Customizing menu for Profit Center Accounting: Actual postings ® Transferring selected balance sheet items ® Generate opening balance for work in process.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. You also enter the period and fiscal year.
You generally work with the standard results analysis version 0. Should you wish to use a different results analysis version, note that this must be set up in CO Customizing for updating in Financial Accounting, as the corresponding account determination is required.
The program transfers all changes in work in process within a single period. When running this function for the first time with a given controlling area, please select the field Create opening balance. The system then posts the opening balance to the start period. You can also post the opening balance to period 01 at fiscal year change, so avoiding having to carry the balance forward.
You access the transfer program by selecting Actual postings ® Transferring selected balance sheet items ® Generate opening balance for assets in Customizing for Profit Center Accounting.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. The depreciation area book depreciation per trade law (01) is provided as a default. You also select the posting period and the fiscal year.
You should run the program in the background, as large amounts of data are normally selected. If you select the field Line item, a line item will be created for each asset in Profit Center Accounting. When handling a large volume of data, you should only use this option for test purposes.
The system assigns assets to profit centers indirectly, via assigned internal orders or cost centers (see Assigning Assets). The program transfers the acquisition and product costs, as well as cumulated value adjustments. The accounts used for this transfer are taken from account determination for Asset Accounting.
Note that it is only possible to calculate key figures (such as Return on Investment) in Profit Center Accounting correctly if an indirect statement of assets and depreciations is made in Financial Accounting

Balance sheet item in Profit center accouting

Dear All,
We are deriving segmental reporting through profit centers. I have created the profit and loss accounts as cost elements. Should I have to create the balance sheet items also as cost elements. In that case what should be the category for balance sheet items such as investment, asset, creditors, debtors and all other balance sheet items.
Regards
Vasantha

Hi Vasantha
The idea of profit center accounting is to have balance sheets, profability within the company for products, regions etc. You can derive balance sheet for these other than the legal balance sheet.
Now coming to your point, as others rightly said when you create cost elements for p&l gl accounts, the costs flows to the profit centers from the cost centers.
Then the GL accounts, you dont need to create cost elements. The profit centers are derived from the offsetting expense gl account. The profit center are derived from various assignments.
Profit centers in the Material master - Vendors & Customers get the profit center from the profit center assigned in the MM Master of the material when you buy or sell.
Profit center for asset - Cost center is assigned in the asset master from which it derived the profit center. When you buy asset, depreciation etc., flows to profit center accounting.
Most of the transactions profit centers are derived from the profit center assigned in the cost center for all balance sheet accounts.
Now coming to the New GL or Old GL, profit center are transferred to the balance sheets accounts esperically for Debtors & Creditors at the period end in Old GL by running TCode 2KEK, now with the New GL Document Splitting, the profit center is assigned immediately in the transaction itself.
I hope it is clear how profit center accounting works.

Suraj

Profit Center : Reflect - Vendor, Customer, Bank/Cash Balance

Dear Experts,
Ref. : Reflect - Vendor, Customer, Bank/Cash Balance, Balance Sheet GL Accounts - Profit Center wise.
When we do postings to P&L Items, we assign a CO / Cost Object. Such Cost objects may be Orders, Cost Centers, etc., which has a Profit Center assigned to it.
Now, we wish to view Balance Profit Center wise.
My Concerns :
1. Can Vendor, Customer, Bank/Cash Balance, Balance Sheet GL Accounts - Profit Center wise. Since we do not assign CO objects to such line items, but the correspondense line items (P&L GL) has a CO object.
2. If yes, how do we move balance of such items, to Profit Center / profit Center wise.
Experts, please help me to understand the concept.
Regards,
Hussein.

Hi,
Are you in ECC activated new G/L? If yes, then you can define Profit Center as Document Splitting Characteristic for General Ledger and profit center will be in the AR/AP line item as well in ledger view (though you don't enter profit center during document entry).
You cannot give the Profit center in line item level to the Subledger accounts like vendor and customers.Vendor and customer accounts take the profit center from the offsetting entry.If want to see the profit center to the particular document, open the document go to Environment field and select Balance Sheet Adjustment option.
If you want to see the Profit center wise payables and receivables, use T.code GR55 and take report group 8A90 for Periodic Receivables and 8A91 for Payable.
If you want to see the all payables with Profit center use Table BFOK_A for vendors BFOD_A for customers.

COPA Planning to Profit Center Accounting

Hi,
We are using ECC 6.0.
When we do COPA planning and transfer the values of COPA to Profit Center, no data has been transfered to profit center plan items.
We have not activated Planning version of Classic Profit Center Accounting. Is it required for ECC 6.0 also to activate Classic Profit Center Accoutning?
We have Mapped requisit Value fields of COPA to GL Accounts.
Can any one guide us in this regard.
Thanks in Advance
Sudhakar

Hi,
In COPA the planning has been done to the value field of PRCTR which represents Profit center. Through report forms the actual and plan data for the value fields can be derived in COPA itself. I dont think that the planned values can be transferred to profit center accouting. On the other hand the actuals of profit center with the same value fields can be derived in COPA.

How to update profit center in posted document without profit center ?

HI,
I want to know,
How to update profit center in posted document without profit center ?
So that i can get my profit center accouting report proper.
Thanks
Nilesh

There is a long story about profit center accounting. I assume you are using Classic PCA, this means you can see the PCA documents. And the solutions is below:
For P/L account, even you don't maintain cost element for it, if you maintain the profit center in the application (Frontend transaction), then PCA line items will be generated for this account.
For B/S account, if you maintain the default Profit Center with transaction 3KEH/3KEI, the PCA line items will generated for this account also.
Hints, don't maintain default profit center for AR/AP accounts, these accounts to be treated in periodic processing.
First, calculate the distribution/adjust by F.5D, then transfer it by 1KEK. for others account rather than AR/AP, use F.5E
For you case, if this account is P/L account, but you don't maintain profit center in the transaction, you can maintain default profit center as B/S account in 3KEH and 3KEI, then transfer it subsequently by transaction 1KE8.
Good Lucky!

Auth by Profit Center for FAGLB03

I am looking to limit the info that can be pulled from FAGLB03 by profit center.
I have tried adding profit center auth objects and SU24- turning on K_PCA from No to Yes.
The user is still able to pull all data.
Please assist.

Hi
The functionality required by you had been introduced by SAP with the Ehp3. The extract from the release notes are as follows.
"FIN_GL_CI_1: Authorization Check for Profit Centers (New)
Use
From SAP ECC 6.0, Enhancement Package 3, Business Function New General Ledger Accounting, you can define profit center authorizations for posting, displaying, and clearing documents. When you have activated the authorization check for profit centers, the system reacts as follows:
o A document can only be posted if the user has authorization for all profit centers to which
postings were made in the document. The authorization check is performed
simultaneously during data entry.
o For manual clearing, the system only selects those open items that, in accordance with
the general ledger view, make postings to profit centers that are initial or for which the
user is authorized.
o For document display, the system only displays those line items for which the profit
centers are initial or in which postings are made to authorized profit centers.
Note:
The authorization check for profit centers does not enable transactions to be processed entirely
from the point of view of profit centers. This means, for example, that automatic payment
processes and automatic clearing continue to be performed centrally and not specific to profit
centers - even when the authorization check is activated for profit centers.
Effects on Customizing
The following prerequisites must be met before profit center authorizations can be issued:
o In Customizing for Financial Accounting (New), you have activated the scenario Profit
Center Update for at least one ledger.
o You have assigned the authorizations for the desired profit centers in the useru2019s profile.
In Customizing for Financial Accounting Global Settings (New), you then perform the activity
Activate Authorization Check for Profit Centers.
If necessary, you can activate this function in Customizing independently of the other functions
in the New General Ledger Accounting business function. The function is not activated
automatically when the business function is activated."
Hope this suffice your requirements, if you need further information, let me know abou the same.

How can I make postings to Profit center in fb01?

Dear All,
I have activated profit center accounting. And I have created dummy profit center in spro.
I want to use profit center as objects for statistical postings. I have opened field profit center in fb01.
Now when I make actual posting for cost center or internal order I can define profit center too. But even if I choose needed profit center the system puts automatically dummy profit center.
How can I avoid this and define profit center I want?
With best regards,
Kamila Zhakenova.

Hi
You can not achieve that... The PC in FI postings cant be changed when you are making posting to a Cost Element
If there is no PC in your CO object, then Dummy PC will be forced into the posting..
However, if you want to change this behaviour, it is as follows:
But note that, SAP wont take the responsibility for the inconsistency that may arise due to this
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
LKAIPF1N, form SUBST_FROM_REAL_OBJECT:
GD_ACC_LIST-CO_KAERG = CON_ACC_STAT )
AND NOT SFR_COBL-PRCTR IS INITIAL.
LD_PRCTR = SFR_COBL-PRCTR.
ENDIF.
IF LD_PRCTR IS INITIAL. "<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< delete
IF LD_PRCTR IS INITIAL and "<<<<<<<<<<<<< insert
not ( not SFR_COBL-PRCTR is initial and "<<<<<<<<<<<<< insert
GD_ACC_LIST-CO_KAKST = CON_ACC_REAL ). "<<<<<<<<<<<<< insert
LD_PRCTR = TKA01-DPRCT.
ENDIF.
IF LD_PRCTR <> SPACE.
sending of message moved to Form PROFIT_CENTER_CHECK "DEL 569565
SFR_COBL-PRCTR = LD_PRCTR.
ENDIF.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
With this modification, the profit center entered won't be changed for postings coming into the CO-interface. All other, especially
internal postings, cannot be changed.

Profit center and Partner profit center assignment in TM transaction

Dear Experts,
I am very new on TRM, could you tell me how you define profit center and partner profit center for FI posting pass from TRM? I did not see there is field for PC or PPC on any of TM transaction.
Appriciate your help.
thanks
CK

Hi,
For postings from treasury you can assign default profit center and business area (also segment from EH3) to account assignment reference. The basic idea being that you generally manage all similar transactions with same account assignment reference through a same organization unit like profit center. You do this assignment in TRM -- General Settings -- Accounting -- Link to other Accounting Components -- Assign additional account assignments.
However in case you want to have a different profit center derived in a different way than through account assignment reference, you could use a custom logic and derive it using the BAdI TPM_ACCIF_TRAC.

Ravi
