Derivation of Profit Center in Fixed assets

Dear Gurus,
I have enabled in the Scenario NewGL Profit Center.
When I make a purchase of assets by PO, how is the derivation for the Profit Center?
I have enabled the Center to Profit Center Cost, is not being carried out the derivation, error occurring in the launch GLT2201.
Any help is welcome.

Marcos Motta

Hi,
The profit center is derived from the cost center.
In order for FI-AA to derive the profit center you need to ensure you have the additional account assignment in place in Asset Accounting:
Asset Accounting - Integration with the General Ledger - Additional Account Assignment Objects
Few things to consider:
The account assignment must be active.
Asset master must have cost center assigned (ANLZ).
Field status group for account assignment must be set to 'optinoal' at least.
Check if additional cost center determination in OKB9 is set, it can affect "cost center" derivation.
If company code has been defined as "Business area fin.statement", Cost Center won't be derivated from Asset Master. Check OBY6.
For further information also review the following SAP notes:
684659: FAQ concerning account assignment objects as of release 4.70
106968: FAQ: Account Assignment Logic
Re GLT2201: this seems to be a FI-GL documen splitting matter: for this you may find following SAP
notes helpful:
871277 IMG documentation, G/L acctg (FI-GL new), document splitting
1085921 Document split
891144     New GL/Document splitting: Risks w/ subsequent changes
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,

COPA derivation - dummy profit center

Hey All
While creating a sales order the system is deriving the dummy profit center for materials assigned to only couple of Profit centers. The material master has right profit center with active status and correct validity dates. I checked the derivation rule in ke4st where a function call line is yellow. this line is realted to checking if profit center accounting is active. Can anyone suggest me why is this happening with only for two of these profit centers

SAP provided multiple derivation rules for profit center, the first one is to 'Check whether Profit Center Accounting is active' and if so DUMMY profit center is filled. You should also see follwoing derivation rules to check profit center.
Table lookup            Profit center from product/plant
Table lookup            Profit center from CO order number
Table lookup            Profit center from WBS element
Please check the derivation rule 'Profit center from product/plant' and check the Target fields section and see if derivation failed.

Derivation of profit center at the time of GR

Dear all,
System derive profit center form Work center assigned to PM order master data not from the account assignment tab page (location). If in case if no cost center maintains in Work center the system derive dummy profit center not from the account assignment cost center's profit center.
Is there any way that system derive profit center from location tab page in PM order master data where cost center exist in account assignment fields.
can any one resolve the issue/?
regards

Sorry , i dont have the OSS number , but i got the below reply from SAP .
The standard design is as follows:
"The main cost center is determined from the master record of the main work center.
A prerequisite for the automatic determination is that the main work center is assigned to a cost center.
The profit center is determined from the cost center, to which the main work center is assigned.
A prerequisite for the automatic determination is that a profit center is assigned to the cost center."
It is not derived from the functional location.

Profit Center Document for Asset Acquistions through F-90

Hi
We are Implementing ECC 6.0.
We had activated the document splitting and done classified the
document types and G/L account for Document Splitting. In addition to
this we had added the Profit Center & Segment as the scenarios to the
Leading Ledgers.
When we acquire an asset through F-90, the Profit center relevant to
the cost center mapped in the Asset Master record is being populated but
the profit center document is not generated.It is only generating 1 Accounting Document & 2 Asset Accounting Document.
Kindly help us to fix the problem.
Regards
R.Karthigayan

Hi
We are using the NEW G/L functionality but even in this scenario a Profit Center Document is being generated for other postings but not for asset acquistions.
If i execute the PCA Actual line item report the posted value is not appearing there.

Profit Center Documents for Asset accounts

Hi
Can someone please assist me with my problem.
For documents created from the depreciation run. The fi document is created and the profit center document is created. But it only has the lines for the expense and not the balance sheet side.
if I use 1ke8 it shows that it has been done already which is correct but not all the lines. I have also used the reversal option, it reverses the document and creates it again but with the same lines.
Should the balance sheet side which is the accumulated depreciation lines not be determined depending on the cost center assigned to the asset??
How can I rectify this???
Please assist.
thank you in advance

Hello Richard，
I I think The problem is caused by missing customizing in trx. ACSET. the profit center can not be directly assigned to assets in asset master data. Therefore it has to be derived from cost center that is linked to asset.
To derive the cost center on FI document and then onto NewGL, it is necessary to:
1) set cost center field 'optional' in field status (trx. OB14 & OB41)
2) set cost center as account assignment at trx. ACSET

Deriving the profit center / segment during Bank Reconciliation

Hi SDN,
One of our requirements is to generate a Financial Statement by Segments.
For this reason, we also need to derive / tag our Bank Reconciliation documents (Manual and Electronic) to the corresponding profit centers or segments. The problem though is that during FF67 or FF_5, there's no way we can enter these data.
At the same time, we can't set a default profit center via FAGL3KEH since these bank accounts may be used for multiple profit centers and not defaulted to one only.
My question now is, can we use the document splitting functionality so that we can "inherit" the profit center / segment from the payment document during bank recon?
To give you an idea here's a sample flow of what we wanted.
Customer Invoice (GL view)      - OK in the system
Dr Accounts Receivable (profit center 1) *inherited
Cr Revenue Account (profit center 1)
Incoming Payment (GL view)     - OK in the system
Dr Incoming Clearing (profit center 1)
Cr Accounts Receivable (profit center 1)
Bank Reconciliation
Dr Main Bank             (profit center 1)
Cr Incoming Clearing (profit center 1)
Currently, system does not inherit the bank reconciliation document to the right profit center. Is there any way we can do this in the system?
Thanks

Dear,
During bank Reco system inherit the Profit Center from the document which it is clearing. There is no need to maintain Default the same in FAGL3KEH.
Please activate splitting at Profit Center level.
Hope this helps!!

OKB9 does not work to derive a Profit Center from Document splitting

Hi GL Gurus,
I am trying receive customer payment with payment difference. Original invoice has two Profit centers so Customer line items have these 2 PCs derived by Doc splitting. I have defined Document splitting characteristic as Profit Center in General Ledger and In Controlling as Cost center. While posting Customer payment with payment difference , It gives me error that CO object does not exist. I have done OKB9 assignement to the above 2 profit centers but it still does not derive a Cost center.
Do you know how to resolve this error?
Thanks in Advance!

I have done OBXL and then OKB9. In OKB9 you have feature as "Mandatory fields for detailed account assignments.Field for specifying detailed account assignments." Here you can define for a Cost element/by Profit center assignment and then to a Cost Center. This works when you have a Cost element/Profit Center combination. But the situation above it does not read the PC derived in Customer line item.
The issue is OKB9 does not Read the Profit Center when it is derived by Document splitting/Inheritance.
Is there a solution to do this?

Profit Center Derivation for Asset Acquisition

Hello all,
I am trying to post asset acquisition via F-90.
We are using ECC6.0 and document split is activated.
I assumed that system will derive the profit center from the assigned cost center in the asset master record.
However, system returned error " Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled ".\
Is there something missing? Am I supposed to create some new transaction variant in document split OR define some rule to derive the profit center of the asset master record from the cost center?
Hope you are able to provide you insights.
Thank you,
Richard

Profit Center Field Not deriving during Asset Postings

We are using document splitting functionality with profit center mandatory for any kind of posting.
Scenario-Asset purchase through PO:
1.Purchase Order -created
2.At goods receipt error is coming balancing filed is not filled (bcoz asset is not a material), for materials we are giving profit center. in the asset master i assigned cost center, still profit center is not deriving.
Scenario-Asset Purchase from vendor
purchasing asset directly from vendor through F-90, against asset line item we have to assign profit center. Cost center & profit center is coming in display mode. in the asset master i already maintained cost center, still profit is not deriving.
I already done config for field status asset account number (G067) andPosting Keys (70,75). I also checked note no.684659.
how profit center will be derived for any kind of asset postings.
Thanks
Sai

I think you might be using the account assignment category 'A' in the Purchase order for asset purchase. Please check the IMG for account assignment category thru transaction 'OME9'. For the relevant account assignment category you are using in the PO, tick the checkbox against 'Derive acct.assgt.'
That should solve your problem.

Transfer Fixed Assets From Profit Center to Another

Dears,
I have transferred a fixed assets from location to another location. So that, I have to change the profit center for the transferred fixed assets.
I tried to do the following :
AS02 => Time dependent =>More Intervals => Add Intervals .
But the cost center is not able to be changed.
Please help...
Thanks

HI,
To trasfer an asset from one profit center to other profit center, create an asset in receiving profit center and run transaction ABUMN. System will retire asset from sending profit center and the value will be trasferred to receiving profit center.
You can also have second option for this, change cost center of asset by defining the validity for the same.
Hope this would help you.

Pankaj

Profit center in Asset Reports

Guys,
Is it possbile to derive profit center field in asset transfer reports or any other trans.report or it will be just on the GL side?
I know in FI document posted for asset reco. accounts ,profit center field is available , but in asset reports can we use some option to show it on the report?? Thanks
Regards
Shaun

Hi Shaun,
Review the attached SAP note which should help.
335065     Include user-defined fields in reports
As per this note it is recommended to use a sort version to see your profit center.
For additional information that may also be of your interest in this subject also have a look at:

Hope this helps.

Asset distribution to various profit center

hai,
We have purchased 20 laptos in one purchase order for that asset created through AS01. Asset is also posted in respective account. Now the 20 assets will be distributed to 5 profit center. How do distribute the same to 5 profit center?
govind.

Hi
You mean that you have only 4 cost centers and 10 profit centers, then it will be difficult. You need not assign profit center in the Asset master, but it derives from cost center. You need 10 cost centers assigned to these 10 profit centers only then it is possible.
May be for the expenses incurred for these assets like dep etc can be assessed to the 10 profit centers in the profit center accounting, however the master may still remain in only few profit centers.
