Difference between cost center for material and sale order

Hi,
I'm having an issue related to profit center. Our business of Reverse Logistics Process is taking the wrong profit center which should be taken from sale order master data, not from material master data as currently. As a developer, I'm confused the definition of profit center in this case. What are the differences between the profit center defined in sale order and in material ?
Thanks,
Paulb

Hi Paul
SAP allows you to change the PC in the sales order... If you dont change, it adopts the PC from Mat Master
You can define substitution of PC for sales order in 0KEM and assign them in 0KEL... You can change the PC based on Sales Org, Dist Channel, Division, etc
For a more complex logic, you can also use an exit

Difference between Cost Center and GL Account

Hi All,
I want to know that "what is the difference between Cost Center and GL Account."
Regards

Hi Vidya,
Few points:
1. GL is a FI object and used for external reporting, whereas cost centers are CO objects and used for internal management reporting.
2. In GL you classify the nature of expenses like telephone expenses, travelling Exp. Salary exp etc., whereas by cost center you decide where are expenses were incurred, like Production department, Mkt. Department, HR department etc.
3. You post the FI transactions at GL level whereas the cost center are assigned to those GL account for getting the more detailed information about the expenses.
4. GL accounts are P&L and BS account and only P&L expenses accounts are posted to cost cneters. And you can choose to post it by cost center or not by defining the GL as cost element. If you do not define any GL as cost element, it will not post to cost centers.
I hope it answers your question.
thanks,
Vivek

Difference between cost center & Responsible cost center in asset master

I want to know difference between cost center & responsible cost center in asset master on following perspective.
1. Financial accounting veiw -
2. Business & report veiw.
I have read through F1 help
Cost Center
Key uniquely identifying a cost center.
Use
The SAP system uses the cost center assignment in the asset master record to determine the cost center affected when the following types of asset posting are made:
Fixed asset depreciation
Gain/loss from asset sales
Cost center responsible for asset
Cost center that is responsible for the asset, but which does not carry the depreciation for the asset.
Example
For example, the cost center "vehicles" can be responsible for all vehicles, while other cost centers carry the depreciation for the vehicles
I can understand from F1 what will be the impact on finance accounting. My question is how it helps in reporting etc & business logic for using responsible cost center. Which report will be usefull to see data at responsible cost center.

Is there is any difference between iPhone4 made for Ukraine and for India?

I would like to know about the hardware / software difference between iPhone4 made for Ukraine and for India.
I purchased my iPhone4 in Ukraine and now I'm in India, and here due to restart problem I visit to a local delear/shopkeeper and he replaced some parts of my device with damaged one (crack screen, etc etc) and told me that it is a scrap and need another iPhone4 to replace some parts of it. Now this cell is totally brick, I can't check the EMEI of that device {because now its not booting} and he didn't accept that he replace some/all parts of my device.
So, I want to know that is there is any way to locate these parts?

Apple does not sell iPhone parts. You no longer have an iPhone. You have an unsupportable frankenphone.
Go back to whoever opened it up and attempted to repair it. Your phone is not supportable here.

Add new F4 (searchhelp) for material in sales order

Hi there!
I read the following related poste:
customisation of F4 for material in sales order
In that post Atul wanted to change an existing search help. My problem is differnet I think.
What I have:
In VA01 I have many different SearchHelps for the material: 9 standards and 2 from my serviceprovider. The standards have shortcuts M, A, H, K, L, N, O, P and S. The two custom ones have 2 and Y.
in MM03 I have even more different SearchHelps for the material: maybe 23 standards and 3 customized ones. The standards have the shortcuts M, A, B, C, E, F, H, I, J, K, L, N, O, P, R, S, T, V and W (then one without ?!?), then G, U. The custom ones are 1, 2, 3, Y.
I now want to use the searchhelp (for example) "I" (in german its "Artikel zur Liefarentenartikelnummer", so I think its about "Material from suppliermaterialnuber" in english) that I can use in MM03 as well in VA01.
Where do I have to customize / program things to do so?
Thanks in advance!

Works!
I had to include the Searchhelp MAT1I into the section "included searchhelps" of searchhelp SD_MAT1 within transaction SE11 and run the default parameter assignment (Button).
I know it was MAT1I because I looked it up in Searchhelp MAT1_A... just to round this ticket for maybe the next readers.

Capture Characteristics with Material and Sales Order

Dear All ,
I have to capture the charecteristics alongwith the material, these characteristics also flow in the sales order, basically a class has been defined which holds a number of characteristics and this class is assigned to the material and I guess this is done using the variant configurator,
1) How will be able to capture the same and display
   those ?
2) Does this characteristics flow in the standard
   extractors of the material and sales order or any
   other cube which can multicubed with those ?
Plz do suggest me the an viable option.
Thanks & Warm Regards,
Fayak.

Hi Anil,
Thanks for your reply, I have checked up the material attributes it does not flow there and I was referrring to one note where you can enhance your datasource using CTBW to capture this characteritsics so I did enhance 0MATERIAL_ATTR, the other attributes are listed as an TEXT DataSource and If I check them using RSA3 data gets populated accordingly but the enhanced datasource 0MATERIAL_ATTR which become 1CL_MAT001 does not return any records shows zero records, I am looking for charcterictics which have been mapped using an Variant Configurator and as far as the note suggests it has to be done thru CTBW to capture this, I have done that but success still eludes me,
Experts Plz help on this as I am on pressure to complete this.
Thanks,
Fayak.

Issue with Cost center in PO and Work Order

Dear Expert,
I am facing an issue with respect to cost center in Purchase Order and Work Order. The PO is made against a work order. There are two cost center associated with the work order. One is updated under u201CAdditional datau201D field and other is at u201Clocationu201D . So the cost center in PO should essentially be the same one mentioned under u2018locationu2019 field of work order. So the issue here is that while creating PO, the cost center is picked from the u201Cadditional datau201D field of work order not from u2018locationu2019 field of WO.
Is there any exit available that needs to be implemented for overriding the cost center in PO or any other way of solving this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Deba

Hi,
I guess that there is already some user exit or enhancement in place, since this doesn't sound like standard SAP (picking the cost data from additional data, or even having it there).

Report for Pegging for forecast and sales order consumption(pegging)

Hi ,
Plaese help to create a report for the below
Requirement is there to have a showing Forecast (Number) and Sales order (Number) pegging Report
Means like to which forecast number the sales order number is consumed
Regards
Kiran

I have tested this on ASCP and I am agree with you. I am pasting one para from document...
"Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning calculates the ATP quantity of an item for each day of planned production by adding planned production during the period (planned orders and scheduled receipts) to the quantity on hand, and then subtracting all committed demand for the period (sales orders, component demand from planned orders, discrete jobs, and repetitive schedules).
Note: Committed demand does not include forecasted demand or manually entered master demand schedule entries. Also, the amount available during each period is not cumulative. Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning does not consider ATP quantities from prior periods as supply in future periods. "

Difference between Cost center and profit center

I need to know what the difference is between a cost center and a profit center eg. A work center has both a cost center and a profit center. What do they collect for that particular work center.
Thanks

hi tefo
differenc is whatever the cost involved will be collected both to the cost center and profit center, when we settle the order it will be settled in the cost element for cost center. the cost will be reflected in profit center which is assinged to the particular cost center.in profit center you can cpature revenue also which is used to map the profit loss for the concern, where as cost center will only capture the expenses

Difference between profit center in OKB9 and material master

Hello,
I have a small doubt over here in the profit center point of view.
We have created profit center 1200 and assigned the same in material master. Now while doing PO system threws error message like "Account 5005115 requires an assignment to a CO object Message no. KI235". To eliminate this error i have assigned Cost element(1001125) and Profit center(1200) in TC: OKB9, now system is able to post everything fine.
Here the issue " If i can change profit center in the material master say ex: 1201, system picks from the material master only then why assigned in the OKB9? while doing MIRO system updated in the 1201 profit center".
Could anybody update me why we need to assigned profit center in OKB9 and Material Master?
Thanks
anifi

Hi,
This is about co.code level field status and Transaction level field status. In OKB9 transaction profit center is maintained and it is getting picked up.
As per SAP if any transaction level field status is maintained it will overwrite the co.code level field status.
So, here when you are giving the input of Profit center in the material master itself it is overwritting the co. code level field of profit center. If nothing is given in material master, then by default OKB9 level profit center will be picked up.
Thanks,
Prithwiraj.

Assigning cost center to material and GL

I have two material 100 and 200 and two material X and Y.
I would like to make the setting that when material 100 is used it should go to GL X and Cost center 500 and whe material 200 is used it should go to GL Y and cost center 500.
Substitution is the last thing which I can do.
But have been told to assign cost center in the accoutnig veiw of material master and then make assign gl to Material in type in VKOA or OBYC.
Can anyone let me know how to do this
thanks

Hi Ravana
You can assign profit center in the material master and not cost center.
As far I know there is no standard settings other substitution which would satisfy your requirement.
Even VKOA or OBYC only satisfies upto the GL Account and not the cost center part. You can assign gl accounts to various movements of the said materials.

Difference between Callable Object for execution and Display

Hi,
I am new to Guided Procedures.When i am creating a callable object under an Action ,i find callable object for execution and callable object for display in the dropdown.What is the difference between the two types of callable objects.
Thanks,
Bala

Hi Bala,
GP comes with a set of registered callable object types that define which applications you can directly expose as callable objects and enable their handling in the context of GP processes.
So the different COs can handle your specific application requirements or process flow requirements appropriately at runtime.
You refer those COs in actions. To make the action functional, you attach at least one callable object to it. In addition to the object that is executed when the action is called, you can attach a callable object that is displayed after the execution. The first one is mandatory. You must attach a callable object for execution. It can be either a callable object with a visible part, such as a Web Dynpro or BSP callable object, or one for background execution.
Optionally, you can attach a callable object for display. It is required to have a visible part for example, you cannot select a callable object for background execution.
At runtime, this object is displayed if the processor wants to open the process step after it has been completed, or if a process contributor has view permissions on the action.
To make it easier, I will give you an example with submitting and approving a composite form. Say, the employee fills in an order for something, submits it and the manager then approves or rejects it.
First, in order for the employee to view the form, you can use a Form Display callable object as a display callable object for actions where the execution object is a form. It displays the name and description of the form and provides a link for download. If the user has view permissions on the step, he or she can view the display object and download the form itself. So, this CO is connected basically with the user experience and what he/she sees displayed on the screen, no matter what happens in the background (e.g. you can have a pre-filling service in the background that prefills some fields of the form, but what the user sees is only the form fields with certain info already prefilled in them).
Next, for the manager to approve or reject the form of the employee, you need a CO that is only for execution, for example a Process Control CO for File Approval For forms, you can use it in a process in which a form is sent by e-mail. As soon as the form is submitted back to the system, the receiver can view it, save a copy of the form, and depending on his or her decision, can approve or reject it.
This really is a very simplified example, but I hope it helped a little in some way or another
Here is a link to the Callable Objects in GP documenatation, hope it also clears up some questions:
