Table for Profit center company code assignment

Dear all,
What is the table where we can see all company codes which are assigned to the concerned profit center?
Can any of you help me on this?
Thanks,
Kumar

Kumar,
After you make company code assignment changes to a PC, but BEFORE you activate the PC, the data appears in table CMDT_PC_BUKRS .
Once you activate the PC after making your changes, the data resides in table CEPC_BUKRS .
Trust this helps.

Profit center/company code combination invalid

I'm trying to make a posting via FB01 and I'm getting the following error: Profit center/company code combination invalid
I have validated in the Profit Center master record, KE53, that it is assigned to the correct company code. The profit center is active and valid.

Also check the validaity date of assignment and the posting date of your document.

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.

Change dummy profit center to original in New GL Concept

Hello experts
We have implemented New GL Concept in ECC6.0. However, some of the documents posted into various GL accounts had gone to Dummy profit center. Is there any way such that already posted documents with dummy profit center can be assigned corresponding original profit center? As of now due to the common dummy profit center has been assigned to various entries, the plant wise reports are not able to display correct figures because dummy profit center is not apportioned to respective plants.
Similar case is also with Vendor and Customer account balances.
We had already gone trough few notes and one of them (1164356) suggests using a BAdI FAGL_MIGR_SUBST, but its scope / use is somewhat ambiguous. (It suggests some ABAP work in VALIDATE_ITEM method, although this method is not present in its interface.)
Kindly help as early as possible...
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas

Hi
You are not clear on your post
1) whether you have implemented Document Slitting or not?
2) Mapped Zero Balance account or not and
3) Profit Center and Zero Balance account are checked in document soplitting charactreristiocs or not?
I am posting this reply based on the assumption that you have mapped the above configuration.
If You have assigned Dummy Profit center in FAGL_3KEH, this always overrides the profit center derived, and the system posts with a dummy profit center. Remove the FAGL_3KEH assignment if any so that the system posts to the correct profit Centers.
Now If you have made the configuration as discussed in points 1,2 3 and other document splitting configurations, then removing FAGL_3KEH will force system to look for the profit centers in all the line items and posts only when this is satisfied.
A pre requisite will be "Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers" in FA global Settings(New)> Ledgers>Ledger which should be "Profit Center".
As a concept you may not need assignment of FAGL_3KEH once you have implemented document Splitting.
Hope this clarifies your situation.

Transaction code: 9KE0 - Posting with Dummy profit center

Hi All,
We have an issue with transation 9KE0, While posting any adjustment entries with single line item, system automaticaly creating second line item few times. We were unable to find the reason why it is creating second line for few documents?
Our requirement is that those entries should have only one line item in transaction 9KE0. Most of the cases we were able to post the document with single line item.
We are using almost 100 co.codes for our client.
For ex: if we post one entry in co.code 1000 through transaction 9KE0 with single item, system posting with one lineitem.
But some times for the same co.code with same parameters if we post one line item, second line item automatically creating with dummy profit center while posting.
Please let us know why the system is creating two line items.
Awaiting for your replies.
Thanks in Advance
Prasad

Hi,
We have further analyzed this issue and found that, whenever the amount in field(KSL -Amount in profit center local currency) is ZERO, System it is creating second line item with dummy profit center.
ex:1
proft cenert        account         amount in co.code cur    amount in profit center local currency
9999                    100000             - 0.13                                 00
dummy                 100010               0.13                                 00
ex:2
proft cenert        account         amount in co.code cur    amount in profit center local currency
9999                    100000             - 3.13                                 1
we have verified the values in GLPCA table also... whenever the tech field KSL-Amount in profit center local currency is zero system creating two line items.
Please suggest us is there a solution to stop the second line item even the amount in profit center local currency field (Tech name -KSL) is Zero
Awaiting for your suggestions.
Thanks in advance

Relation Between Dummy Profit Center and Posting Keys.

Hello Gurus,
It will be a valuable feed back for below mentioned Scenario.
One of our client is on SAP Version 4.7 and New GL is not activated. In COCD one Customer Invoice entry is booked as below.
PK     Account           Amount      Profit Center
01     SURXXX1            100.00         ABCD
50     REVENUE A/c      50.00         ABCD
50     ENT TAX               20.00         ABCD
50     SERVICE TAX       30.00         ABCD
After running t codes 1KEK, F.5D, and KE5T for customer line item system picks same profit center as mentioned in other line items i.e ABCD.
But when we reverse the above document system picks DUMMY Profit center instead of ABCD.
PK     Account           Amount      Profit Center
12     SURXXX1            100.00         DUMMY
40     REVENUE A/c      50.00         ABCD
40     ENT TAX               20.00         ABCD
40     SERVICE TAX       30.00         ABCD
Basically we have checked field status variant for Posting Key 01 and 12 in which Profit Center field is Required and field status for profit center for reconciliation account is also required. This is unusual behavior which we are facing right now.

Profit Center :
A profit center is a management-oriented organizational unit used for internal controlling purposes. Dividing your company up into profit centers allows you to analyze areas of responsibility and to delegate responsibility to decentralized units, thus treating them as "companies within the company". EC-PCA lets you set up your profit centers according to product (product lines, divisions), geographical areas (regions, offices or production sites) or function (production, sales).
Profit Center Accounting (PCA) allows you to calculate internal measurements of profitability. This internal view of profitability, then, reflects the success of a given profit center at meeting the profitability goal for which it was given responsibility.
Cost Center :
The cost center is an organizational unit in a controlling area. Cost centers can be defined according to several different design approaches. A typical approach could be for an enterprise to define a cost center for each low-level organizational unit that has responsibility for managing costs. As costs are incurred, they are assigned or posted to the appropriate cost center. These costs could include payroll costs, rent and utility costs, or any other costs assignable to a given cost center.
Each cost center is assigned to a category, e.g. Administration cost center, production cost center, etc. Each cost center master record has a field for the name of the person responsible for the cost center.
For detailed information go thru the below article

Hope this helps.

Is it possible to post docs to Dummy profit center

Hi friends,
Is it possible to post FI docs to dummy profit center.
Posting for customer document.
Customer Dr
Bank Account Cr.
system is not allowing to post document with dummy profit center.
If I post document without any proft center, It is giving Balancing field error, no profit center could be determined.
Regards,
Suresh

Hi
In your posting, there are no profit centre assignment to both accounts. For customer, you cannot assign a profit centre. But for Bank account, you can assign a default profit centre. In new GL, you can assign a profit centre to your GL account per company code:
F.A new ->GL a/c new -> Master data -> Profit centre -> Assign default profit centre to accounts

Multiple Dummy Profit Center

We have one controlling area and multiple company codes. The requirement is to have 1 dummy profit center per company code. Is that possible? The reason being, currently all company codes are trying to post in one dummy profit center and it becomes hard to reconcile that dummy profit center. Is there a way to restrict company codes in dummy profit center or have multiple dummy profit centers?

Hi,
You cannot assign another dummy profit center to controlling area. You can replace the dummy profit center, if the original dummy profit center doesn't have any posting,since that would lead to inconsistencies.

Prevent documets getting posted to DUMMY profit center for

Hi All,
During posting of accounting documents (for eg: In T-code F-02), we need to prevent documents getting posted to dummy profit-centers when I post documents with cost-centers which are un-assigned to any profit center (T-Code KS02). Instead we need to bring in to the profit-center posted by the user. We have PCA activated.
We have tried to achieve with a substitution along with an user-exit (T-code: GGB1). But the user-exit is getting invoked only after the assignment of Dummy profit-center and is overwriting my profit center. Is this approach right? FYI, the substitution is done at the Financial Accounting/ Line-item level.
Kindly enlighten me with your solutions.
Thanks and Regards,
Gnanasambanthan.V

At my company, we have profit center as a required field on the cost center master - so when posting to a cost center, there is always a profit center.
However, if requiring a profit center on the cost center master is not an option in your case, then I'm wondering if it would work to set up a validation to check that the profit center on a posting is not the dummy.

Shannon

Hello!, did you find a solution??, I have a similar problem...

Automatic Posting accounts are posting to Dummy Profit center....

Hi experts....
We are configured New GL
Generally we are creating Customer Invoice (T. Code: VA02) and
Vendor Invoice (T Code. MIRO) for WBS Element only. While posting the
customer/Vendor Invoice System is not checking that CO Object (WBS
Element) in main line item (Sales/GRIR) as well as Automatic Account
assignment setting (T. code: OKB9). System is showing the Error. If
that G/L Account is not a cost element then system is posting to DUMMY
Profit Center in place profit center assign to that WBS Element
Requirement:
We need to post tax and Customer/Vendor line items in document
against WBS Element which should be picked up from Sales/GRIR Line Item
of the same document. If there is no CO Object (WBS Element/Cost
Center) in Sales/GRIR line item in document then based on Automatic
Account assignment configuration (Valuation Area is Mandatory) system
has to post to Cost Center/Profit Center
We are not maintained any derivation rule of PC & Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes in New gl config. then also system posting to Dummy PC only.
We can delete that dummy?
or any configuration changes needs for it. plz give me ur valuable suggestions
Please Do needful
Thanks
Bhagiradha

Hi,
You have to maintain Dummy profit center, it is mandatorily for configuring profit center accounting . If u have not maintain Default profit center to that cost element, it will directly flow to Dummy Profit center. Better to maintain default profit center and u cannot delete the Dummy profit center.

Prevent postings to dummy profit center

dear experts
1)The inheritance option that we turn on during the activation of new G/L in ecc6.0, do you know where i can turn on that option in sap4.7.
2)what are the impacts of changing a document splitting rule in sap4.7 like in rule000000001 splitting is done for the documents for customers, vendors, tax and the client wants to change it to 000000012 which is splitting for customer,vendor, tax,money,co.code clearing. what are the areas that are to be tested for this configuration change.
3)i have posted a purchase order and noticed that G/r and I/R went into the correct profit center but the payment went into dummy profit center.
so i have deleted that number range in 3keh rule and then posted an other purchase order even then the payment went into dummy profit center what could be the reason? there are no substitution rule for that document type, i have checked okb9 but this account i snot assigned to any cost centers or profit centers.
how can i know what is causing the g/l account to derive dummy profit center?
thank you
srinivas.

Hi..
Try to assgin that GL Account in 3KEH and give original correct profit center which you want to post exactly instead of Dummy profit center.
Generallly, If you dont specify the Profit center for one GL Account in Derivation Rules, System will automatically posts to Dummy profit center only..
One more option you have is.. even if you post this payment to Dummy profit center, you can very well transfer that Dummy profit center values to Correct profit center..
Thanks
