Entity Dimension - Company Code + Profit Center

Dear experts,
I'm in a BPC project in NW, the project has two fronts, planning and consolidation, in specific I am with the initial concern of how to organize the dimensions, and is used by both sides.
Explaining the situation, we will do the planning and legal and management consolidation, ie we must have a vision of the organization by Company (Company Code) and Enterprise Center (Profit Center), here comes the first question, Do we need to organize the Entity Dimension structure with a hierarchy of hybrid company and profit center? Ie:
Say a company has the following structure:
The Company A is a holding company with Company B controlled.
Under the Company A have two enterprise center: X and Y;
Under the Company B have tree enterprise center : V, W and Z;
Thus the structure of ParentH1 would get this:
ID ParentH1
A
B     A
X     A
Y     A
V     B
W    B
Z     B
This interpretation is correct? What are the impediments to the COI if any.
Thanks
Alexandre

Alexandre,
I'm with the same doubt, do you get the answer ?
Please some one knows the answer ?

Standalone Scenario - Company Code, Cost center table

Hi,
Can any one please let me know the company code, cost center table used in standalone scenario.
Regards,
SAP Guy.

Hi,
The account assignment, Product category and Logical system combination is maintained in SPRO.
SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Cross Application Basic settings > Account Assignment
There are three settings which you maintain there :
1. Account assignment categories
2. Define G/L account for product category , Logical system and Account assignment category
3. Maintain local accounting data.
These are the three settings which you maintain for account assignment determination.
Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.
Award points for helpful answers.

One Legal entity two company code - pros & cons

Hi SAP GURUS,
We are having one legal entity with multiple products. I want each plant to be a profit center. But i am loosing plant wise profitability when we are transferring the same product from different plants, in a common depot. This is because we are not having batch & hence profitabilty for plant is lost when it is sent to depot for sale.
In this case I am thinking to go for two company code. One manufacturing & Other selling. What will be the pros & cons in this case.
Thanks
CHEERS

Yes ! kishore You are obsolutly correct !
Hi Nitin,
As per my understanding your issue seems profit cannot be determined while sending goods sending plant to another palnt. For that SAP suggested to use Transfer pricing in Prrofit centre accouting & your valuation must be profit centre valuation not company code to get internal reports.

Authorization issue with Company code/ Cost center combination

Hi,
I am currently trying to restrict user access by company code and cost center combination.
We have roles defined for each user and I am trying to use the standard authorization object A_S_KOSTL in this role . It seems that since it is not a 'maintianed' object no activity can be assigned to this autorization object.
currently the values are :
company Code : 1110 , 1112, 1114
Cost Center : *
i am getting sy-subrc as 0 even when i test for company code : 1110 for a user with the above role.
My code is :
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'A_S_KOSTL'
    ID 'BUKRS' FIELD '1110'.
F sy-subrc EQ 0.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'A_S_KOSTL'
ID 'KOSTL' FIELD '*' .
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    MESSAGE 'Success with KOSTL also' TYPE 'S'.
ELSE.
      MESSAGE 'Success with BUKRS only' TYPE 'S'.
ENDIF.
ELSE.
      MESSAGE 'Failure' TYPE 'S'.
ENDIF .
I get a subrc NE 0 for the KOSTL part. The test passes for BUKRS.
Please advise on how to proceed.
Thanks and Regards
Soumya

Okay, I misread the "NE". Sorry.
Have you done a syntax check on it?
Also compare to:
AUTHORITY-CHECK <object>
ID 'KOSTL' '*'.
I cannot confess to ever have done a "full" AUTHORITY-CHECK myself, but it is most likely the same as with DUMMY -> you should not use the FIELD statement as '' value if the data element does not know what a '' is...

Using GR55 T code - Profit center groups Very very urgent

Hi frds,
Currently the report provides drill down to specific profit center groups by double clicking on the group. we can also save this into excel worksheets for individual profit center. Instead of displaying individual profit center group we want to have one report whcih gives all the profit centers data.
Our requirement is to show profit center groups on one sheet with the actual and budget by profit group as columns for the profit centers.
I am able to modify the report using the T code GRR2 but dont know how to copy that and modify.can you give me step by step process.

One legal entity - different company codes

Dear all,
I have the following question
Suppose:
Company 1 is implemented in SAP company code A
Company 2 is implemented in SAP company code B
However, from a legal point of view, Company 1 and Company 2 belong to the same legal entity.
This means VAT, Intrastat, EC sales list should be reported out of 1 legal entity.
Is this possible in SAP if the information needs to be gathered from different company codes?
Thx for your answer,
Simon
Moderator: Please, read basic SAP material on consolidation

Yes, it is possible.
Please check transaction F.12.
Check output lists option in F.12.

Authorization object for company code and profit center together

Hi all,
Please help me with the following requirement..
Company Code = ABCD
Profit Center = *
The user is authorized to run the report for company code ABCD only but any profit center within this company code.
2 Company Code = *
Profit Center = WXYZ
The user is authorized to run the report for Profit Center WXYZ only but any company code.
3 Company Code = *
Profit Center = *
The user is authorized to run the report for any company code and profit center.
The same user could have 1 and 2. So, in this case he should be able to run a report for the total inventory of company code ABCD, and a report for total inventory of profit center WXYZ only regardless company code.
He should not have visibility to other company codes inventory other then profit center WXYZ.

Profit center substitution in delivery from Purchase Order

Hi all
Hi have a stock transfer process between two company (1 sending company and the different target companies). I must change the profit center of sending company following the target company code (profit center A for target company A, B for B,etc.). The sales order substitution for PC doesn't work in this case because the delivery born from a PO not from a SO. I find I can make the change for the goods movement with the exit EXIT_SAPLPCRW_002, but I don't found exit for the delivery document (important for the intercompany invoice profit center). Someone have ideas?

Internal-Profit Center Accounts Receivables/Payables

Dear All,
Within a single Company Code, Profit Center 1 is assigned to Plant 1 while Profit Center 2 is assigned to Plant 2. To track inter-divisional revenues and costs between Profit Center 1 & 2 during stock transfer, Transfer Pricing will be activated using Profit Center Valuation in Profit Center Accounting.
Only Legal Valaution is turned on in FI. No Profit Center Valuation will be turned in FI.
We understand that Inter-divisional Accounts Receivables/Payables can be generated for Profit Centers if these Profit Centers belong to 2 different company codes.
Thus we would like to clarify if Inter-divisional Accounts Receivables/Payables can be generated in the scenario within a Company Code where Profit Center is assigned to Plant 1 while Profit Center 2 is assigned to Plant 2?
Prompt respose is appreciated!
Million Thanks in Advance!

Dear Suraj,
I realiee appreciate your prompt response.
I have been reading SAP HELP and forums. The internal-divisional AR/AP scenario between Profit Centers are usually between 2 Plants and 2 Company Codes.
We understand that we can Define Account Determination for Internal Goods Movements for P/L Accounts in PCA for Internal Revenues, Internal Change in Stock and Delivery from Profit Center.
Would you please give us some pointers where and how internal-divisional AR/AP between Profit Centers within a Company Code can be configured in IMG?
Regards

BCF by Profit center

In the Matrix Consolidation ( Using Company Code/profit Center), can we do the balance carryforward by profit center.
Means in the year end balalnce carryforard has to be clearly executed only using profit center and balances has to be carry forward to next year by profit center, than by company

Yes. The document splitting is in place.
The company codes are haivng very short duration and once the project is accomplished it is divested. When numerous projects are happening by joint venture it is really impractical to create company code with all difficulties in ECC and divest it.
Hence we thought to have few company codes and nominate the real jointventure projects as profit center concept with balancing segment, document splitting.
But in this route can we execute the BCF in BCS only by profit center.?

How can we settle price diff. in profit center valuation to COGS acc?

Dear All,
We have activated multiple valuations/transfer prices.
We do perform cross company code material sale. We have assigned each profit center at company code level.
We have set transfer price variant in t.code 8kez and have customized accounts in Controlling-Profit Center Accounting-Transfer Prices-Settings for Internal Goods Movements -Define Account Determination for Internal Goods Movements.
We had got posting logic described in http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/eb/13811243c411d1896f0000e8322d00/frameset.htm
Now after actual costing run price differences in profit center valuation were not transferred to next level as we expected.
They have stayed as not distributed at sender (company code) profit center level.
How can we distribute price differences in profit center valuation to COGS account of sender profit center defined due to
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/eb/13811243c411d1896f0000e8322d00/frameset.htm?
With best regards,

Edited by: Kamilana Zhakenova on Dec 25, 2011 10:56 AM

Dear Gurus,
There is an addition to post above.
Transfer price was defined in SD module in Sales and Distribution-Basic Functions-Pricing-Pricing Control-Define Condition Types.
Now it is taken during cross company code sale from scheduling agreement and invoice.
(Please, do not take into account that we have customized transfer prices in 8kez)
But the issue is price differences in profit center valuation settlement.
They do settle to the next level for receiver company code like in group valuation.
We need to settle them to COGS account at company code sender side.
How we can do that?
With best regards,
Kamila.

NEW GL: profit center allocation cross company codes possible?

F-Hi,
In PCA the allocations are postes by company code - also the tracing factors are calculated by company code. In NEW GL, can the profit center allocation (transaction FAGLGA11) be done cross company, including the calculation of the tracing factors. Here is my example.
profit center     Company code     cost center     Posted amounts
P00010     02                           200010     1.000,00
P00010     03                           300010     2.000,00
P00010     05                           500010     4.000,00
P00010 Total                                   7.000,00
P40100     02                          240100        10,00
P40100     03                           340100         5,00
P40100     05                          540100         5,00
P40100 Total                                       20,00
P40200     02                           240200        20,00
P40200     03                           340200        30,00
P40200     05                           540200        20,00
P40200 Total                                       70,00
Purpose of the cycle in PCA:
Split the amount of profit center P00010 on to P40100 and P40200
with a ratio of what is posted already on those 2, cross company
So we should expect to split the 7.000 in to
     20/(20+70) from 7.000 = 1.555 for P40100
     70/(20+70) from 7.000 = 5.445 for P40200
But the program allocates by company code:
split     1.000     by ratio 10/20
     2.000     by ratio 5/30
     4.000     by ratio 5/20
OR, because we are in NEW GL, is the solution a rollup ledger with a global company code?
Thanks
Yves Kieckens

Hi,
I have sent an OSS message and they replied that it is not possible. There is a note about classic PCA indicating that cross company is not possible, and the same concept is valid for NEW GL.
I haven't done the solution via rollup ledger because not enough experience in my network.
We have done some specific programming in the upload of the statistical key figures as a workaround solution.

The Design of Profit Center Code

Dear SAP Gurus,
In the design of profit center code, you can design a profit center code that is common across all company codes by flagging the company code assignment in KE51. Alternatively, you can also design a company code specific profit center code. Unlike profit center accounting, this kind of feature is not available in cost center accounting.
If you would to design your profit center codes in this manner, you can no longer in use of all standard pca reports because there is no company code selection criteria when executing the reports. This is quite inconsistent with the above featute in pca. You can definitely customize your pca reports by bringing in the company code as selection criteria.
Besides it will help you to reduce the number of profit center codes, can anyone share of any other rationales or pros/cons of designing a common profit center code across all company codes? Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Rebi

Dear SAP Gurus,
Anyone has any inputs for my question?
To elaborate further, here is the example of my question:
a. When designing profit center code PC1, you can create the code as PC1 and flag it as applicable to company code 1000, 2000
and 3000 in KE51
b. Alternatively, you can design company specific profit center code of 1000PC1, 2000PC1 and 3000PC1.
I need your help to share with me the pros and cons of the above 2 options. Thanks in adavance for your help.
Cheers,
Rebi
