  • Direct Activity allocation posting error

    Dear All,
             In T.code - KB21N I tried to  run the direct activity allocation. While enter the details in KB21N all the details picked from 3xxxxxxxxx document as it is reference document. In screen variant "Order" & Input type "Individual ". Document item price has assigned xxx INR. But controlling area currency is EUR. So the system picks constant exchange rate which is maintained in total price.
            Can anyone tell where do we maintain total price per quantity for document item
    Thanks...

    Hi,
        We have maintained activity cost(Euro=Controlling area currency) in KP26. But the company code currency is INR. How the system picks INR value and which will be editable or not.
    Thanks...

  • Direct activity allocation

    hi,
    in KB21N, we can define allocation for cost center, prof segment, sales order or wbs.
    i have few points need clarification.
    1) in KO01, we also can define settlement rule for cost center. Why need to allocate using KB21N?
    2) what is the difference between KB21N against allocation(assessment/distribution)?
    thanks
    rgds

    Settlement Rule and assessment/distribution are done as part of periodic activity for moving cost from cost center/order to another cost object.
    Whereas KB21N direct activity allocation is used for posting credit to the cost center based on the quantity information entered. Typically the timesheet of the labor time spent in the cost center for each activity is entered and the cost is transfered based on the same.

    Moderator: Please, do not post certification queries. Regarding your issue, please, refer to help.sap.com

    Hi,
    Activity means e.g.. sales call, customer visit etc.
    But service process means after you sale your product if some service related issue arrives then that is taken care by this transaction.

    Hi
    I did't found any TCODE like that. Custom program will have starting either Y or Z. If it is a custom program then with the help of ABAPer you can get the requirement.

  • Difference between Indirect  & direct activity allocation?

    Hello all,
    please send any information on the subject. Thanks.
    Ashwini

    Direct activity allocation is used when quantity is known for the work done e.g machine hours or time hours. Allocation is done via KB21n in CO.
    Indirect activity allocation is used when quantity is not directly known and cost is allocated on the basis of statistical key figures e.g. number of employees.

  • About Direct activity allocations

    When i m going for direct activety allocation in T.code KB21n,In this screen there is sender cost center ,activty type and reciving order,my sending cost center is 30100  and activites type is J00,and rec order is Consulting company A.
    When i feed this data in kb21n and i save it but there is one error occured ,the error is :-
    A master record for 30200/J00 exists only in 2008
    Message no. KL002
    Diagnosis
    You want to use cost center 30200 together with activity type J00. For this combination, however, only one master data record was created in fiscal year 2008. The master record is defined in CCA during activity type planning.
    Procedure
    1. Create the master data record.
    Activity type planning
    2. Or, check your entries.
    Plz guide me ITs urgent
    Regards,
    Pramod Kulkarni

    Hi,
    Check your Cost Center and Activity type master data validity (like From Period & TO Period and Fiscal Year) and KP26 planning values for Cost Center and Activity type combination values for particular period and year.
    If this helps you,please assign points.
    Thanks,

  • ArchiveLink object (not DMS) for KB23N (Display Direct Activity Allocation)

    Does anyone know the ArchiveLink object for KB23N for linking ArchiveLink (Scanned not SAP DMS) documents?
    I can't seem to find a standard object in the object list so I thought I'd check here before attempt to create a custom ArchiveLink object for this area. There are a couple with similar names but configuring them doesn't enable the store business document option.

    Hi Athol,
    We have observed that for MIGO transaction,the 'Store Business Document' option is disabled.Could you please let know how this can be enabled? We have serarched the forums,no inputs.Also,there is no indicator from the configuration side as well.

  • KB21N -Is there a way to prevent activity allocation between Company Codes?

    Hi people,
    How can we prevent user from posting to another Company Code through KB21N (Direct Activity Allocation)?
    Note that everything is under one Controlling Area.
    thank you
    Maut

    yes, create a CO Validation (OKC7) with the following rules:
    Prerequiesite:
    COBL_SENDER-BUKRS <> COBL_RECEIVER-BUKRS
    Check:
    COBL_SENDER-BUKRS = COBL_RECEIVER-BUKRS
    also you need to create a proper message in case of Error, like:
    "no cross company postings in CO allowed"
    hope this helps - I just defined this and tested - it works....
    regards

  • Modify posting period in KB65 - Internal Activity Allocation reposting

    Hi Gurus,
    I have lots of documents originally created in CATS.
    The user who did the CAT7 transfer made a mistake and put in posting date (01.03.2010) on the selection screen of CAT7. All items have been posted on 01.03.2010 instead of the original date of the records in CATS.
    When I try to repost these items in KB65 and modify the posting date to February, 2010 the system issues an error message (BK214) that the new posting period is earlier than original and it is not possible to modify.
    Message BK214 can't be switched off either.
    Is there any chance to bypass this? Or any other idea how to modify the posting date of these items from March to February?
    Thanks,
    Jeno

    Try KB21n......we used to change the activity allocation through this transaction.....should work in your case
    Thanks

  • Problem in indirect activity allocation to CO-PA (transaction KEG3)

    Hi experts,
    I am in process of testing indirect activity allocation (KEG3) to CO-PA.
    Sender is cost center and activity.
    Receiver - a set of characters like Co Code, Product and so.
    Sender rule is Posted quantities.
    Question - how is this sender quantity picked by system ...I mean the combination of cost center and activity....where to set it so that system picks the data.
    I tried through confirmation to a prod order but that did not help as - in indirect activity allocation we use activities of category 2 and 3 which are not used in confirmation of prod order
    Thanks,
    SKD

    Hi  SKD ,
    Can you please elaborate what logic is used for indirect activity allocation to COPA ..
    Why are you transferring activities to COPA directly .. not to cost centers...whats the business logic .. and also let us know  the parameters used in Indirect Activity Allocation cycle.. to answer your queries further
