Profit center not picking correctly in PO from sales order
Hi Experts,
Profit center is not picking correctly.. in PO
In material master Profit center is configured as XXXX
We have raised a sales order for the same material with two line items (e.g) 1500 kgs & 1600 kgs and profit center has been changed in the sales order to YYYY
There is one purchase requistion for the same material with two line items
But we have raised two purchase order for each line item in which the same sales order is linked to these two purchase order.
In the first PO , for the first line item in sales order ie., 1500 kgs profit center is picked from the sales order ie, XXXX which is correct but in the second PO, for the second line item in sales order ie., 1600 kgs profit center is picking as YYYY ie which is configured in material master.
What could be reason ? Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
NarayananHi Narayan
Check the Account assignment in the 2nd PO.. Does it have E as Acct Assgn Category?
It should have sales order as the account assignment... If yes, then it must pick up PC from the sales order...
Try to put a deletion flag to this PO and create a new one, if possible... You would come to know if some one has changed the PC

Default profit center not picking
Hi
I am using document splitting and i assigned some Balance sheet accounts to the profit centers in FAGL3KEH. But that GLs are not picking the Default profit centers. I also tried in 3keh but there also not able to do.
Can anybody tell that where i am going wrong.
ThanksHi,
3KEH is for old PCA so if you use NewGL FAGL3KEH is the one to be used.
If your test posting contains another profit-center than the one defaulted in FAGL3KEH check where it comes from, because FAGL3KEH PRCTR is only used if no other profit-center information for the line item can be found.

Dummy profit center determined when performing MIGO (after MB21)
Dear experts,
I have the following problem in SAP release 4.7:
Step 1) Perform MB21 (ok, no problem)
Step 2) Perform goods issue (MIGO): Sometimes it determines profit center from the material correctly while sometimes it determines dummy profit center!
The correct one is the profit center of the material master but no dummy. The account has a check in Profit. Segment in OKB9 setting.I have checked that dummy profit center is determined because the characteristic "plant" is not copied to COPA for derivation. Is it a system bug? Can anyone help?
Thanks!Hi,
Good morning and greetings,
Maintain a substitution rule in the system through GGB1 / OBBH to ensure that the right profit centre is determined during the transaction.
By maintaining the substitution the system will automatically determine.
Please reward points if found useful
Thanking you
With kindest regards

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

Picking DUMMY Profit Center in COGS line item
Dear All,
My Client is on ECC6 and document splitting is activated.
My problem is, in current month we have created on Finishd good(Material) and done PGI but dont know why system is picking dummy profit center in line item of COSG only, in line item of material profit center is proper.
1. Profit center is assigned in Material Master.
2.No User Exit is applied
3. No Validation & Sub-situation done.
4. No FAGL3KEH setting is done.
COGS Ac Dr 100 PC Dummy
To Inv of FG 100 PC 2000
Other material created in same valuation class is working properly.
Regards,
Shayam
Edited by: Shayam_210 on Aug 23, 2011 9:13 AMHi, to find bugs like these is always "triggy" and I am afraid that there are no easy solutions!
You could try to go in TC GGB1 - go down to the substitution in "Create sales order" and there "activate total trace" or perhaps Expert trace - set breakpoint. After you done those go in and create the sales order again in the same session.
In order to be successful here ... will you need the help of an ABAP'er.
I believe the error to be related to master data as itu2019s usually are u2026 but sometimes are there a bug in the system.
Good luck

System picking default Profit center as dummy profit center
Hi all,
when ever i posted a docuemnt with selected profit center by defualt system picking dummy profit center where i need to set pick selected profit center manually.
KiranHI,
System may be picking up the dummy profit center from configuration which is overwriting your manual entry.
eg: Substitutions in FI, profit center derivation (3KEI) etc.,
Check your configuration.
Also, read through the link for better understanding of profit center determination:

Picking Dummy Profit center in GL simulation
Hi,
We are using ECC 6.0 and New GL is activated.
My user has a problem booking outgoing manual payments to vendor customer accounts when there is no invoice. Profit center is obligatory while booking the payment. But even after selecting the proper profit center and simulating the GL , system shows Dummy profit center.
Requesting to help out.
Regards,
makrand1st pass
Vendor A/c Dr
to Bank Clearing Cr.
In this bank clearing will inherit profit center from the vendor you are clearing.
Then you pass
Bank Clearing Dr
To Bank Cr. In this bank will inherit profit center from bank clearing account. Hope in second entry you are posting as well as clearing the bank clearing account.
Also check
SPRO > Financial Accounting > General Ledger Accounting > Business Transaction > Document Splitting > Activate Document Splitting
Make sure that "inheritance" is checked. -
Hi,
we activated New GL with Segment Balancing. The P&L accounts will get the profit Center from the cost objects. We have defined a default segment in the constant for unassigned process, and we only have zero balancing at the segment, and not the profit center. This is a business requirement.
However, I am not sure how to cover the scenario where there might be no profit center in the cost center master or the material master or any other scenarios. I have tried configuring the default profit center in FAGL3KEH. but when I tested, the document splitting is not working correctly. SAP recommends not using default profit center if document splitting is activated.
I wanted to see if dummy PCTR is an option. I have read in the SAP library, but they do not explain clearly about the dummy PCTR. It says activating dummy PCTR is optional, but do not give a good alternative option. They say we can activate balancing by PCTR, but that is not our requirement. Also, if we assign a default PCTR in the non assigned process, it will apply for the balance sheet accounts as well, which we do not want.
I am not sure what are the other options. Please suggest if there are any other options. Also SAP does not mention if we activate dummy profit center from the New GL side (not through the classic PCA menu path), does it still activate the Classic PCA tables?
Please let me know.
ThanksHi,
As I have already explained, both the default profit center and configuring the default profit center for non assigned processes does not work for us.
The default profit center conflicts with document splitting. SAP recommends not to use default PCTR if we do document splitting.
As far as the constant for non assigned processes goes, we have assigned a default segment here (not a default PCTR), since we are doing only segment balancing (reporting by segment), and also the business wants to be able to pick only the segment for any b/s adjustment postings.
Also, my earlier question has not been answered. Does activating the dummy profit center from GL side still activate the Classic PCA ledger 8A?

Dummy Profit Center -- Customer Line item
Hello
I have a scenerrio on dummy profit center
1. On Augst 2006 -- A customer invoice has been posted using FB70 and some how the customer account line item when to dummy profit center and other line items were posted to a the correct profit center.
2. On August 2006 -- Due to this business reversed original customer invoice using FB08 which again has customer account line item when to dummy profit center and other line items were posted to the correct profit center.
Origianl Invoice: Customer XYZ Ltd - GL 130024 ( Customer Reconciliation Account)--- Dummy profit Center -- Dr. 235,000 USD
Reversal : Customer XYZ Ltd - GL 130024 (Customer Reconciliation Account) -- Dummy profit center -- Cr. 235,000 USD
This is want we want and this is want we see in our FI entries and all are with the same posting dates.
Now some how when you look at KE5Z (Profit Center line items report) for dummy profit centers even today.
1. You see the original customer invoice showing dummy profit center on the customer account line item as Dr. 235,000 on GL 130024.
2. You see the reversal customer invoice showing correct profit center on the other line items and you dont see customer account line item that is GL130024 on this document.
3. Because of which dummy profit center is showing Dr.balance.
PCA report:
Origianl Invoice: Customer XYZ Ltd - GL 130024 ( Customer Reconciliation Account)--- Dummy profit Center -- Dr. 235,000 USD
Reversal : Customer XYZ Ltd - No entry except the same document number with the other line items.
Could you please give us the thoughts except the PCA entry only as business dont have to have this entry. Business basically want to know the reason for not showing the customer line item on the reversal document which will knot out the dummy.
Will assign good points
Thanks

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
BhagiradhaHi,
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.

Taking Dummy profit center at time of cancelation of billing
HI Gurus,
we have maintained one exchange rate differece GL a/c at the time of billing accounting document.for this Gl account we have maintained one default cost center in OKB9 in which we have assigned profit center also.
Here at the time of billing accounting doc we are getting cost center as well as profit center what we have maintained. where as in cancelation of billing document it's picking up the dummy profit center instand of profit center maintained in billing.
But we are getting correct cost center at the time of cancelation also only profit center is differing..
Could you please any one suggest on this..Thanks in advance..
Regards,
SriniIn OKB9 Did you tried using value 3 in account assignment which makes profit cemter as mandatory?
In your scenario chek the values in 3KEH assignment if it is 4.7 or earlier or FAGL3KEH if it is >5.0.
If you want to default a constant profit center for Bank charges/Exchange losses you can define here. -
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.

Ajinkya AhireProfit 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.

Hi
I am on ECC6.0 and profit center accounting is active. I have one dummy center.
Now what is the use of dummy profit center. It i because SAP will not allow me to post FI transaction with out profit center because of document splitting. Then how dummy profit center will be usedHi,
The profit center accounting is based on the derivation rules. Derivation rules are nothing but how and to which profit center the postings are to be done.
If the derivation rules are not there, then the incomes and expenses would be posted to this dummy profit center.
At the end of the month if this dummy profit center has balances, it means that the derivation is missing and hence these balances from the dummy cost center will be assigned to the correct profit center manually.
Dummy profit center acts as a cross check to see the accuracy of the postings in to the various profit centers depending on the derivations.
Thank you,
Shilpa.
