Error in cost center assessment integration with FI

We just upgraded our test system with support pack SAPKH50020 and when we test cost center assessment, we are getting the error message "For document type SA, an entry is required in field Reference"
The same process is working in our production system, which is under support pack SAPKH50010.  We are using the same doc type, and the configuration for this doc type is the same as in our test system. 
OSS told us that the only solution is to change the doc type configuration or use a user exit to populate the Reference field.    However, I don't understand why this process is working in the old support pack and not in the new one.    
Has anybody encountered the same issue?  If so, how was it resolved?  
thank you,
Lanny

Hi Phaneendra,
Thank you for your response.  But the real question is why is this process different between support pack SAPKH50010 and SAPKH50020.   In support pack SAPKH50010, we also uses document type SA with reference field required, but the cost center assessment is able to post to it without any customization.    Now, in support pack SAPKH50020, this no longer works.    So I'm just wondering if any of you have encountered similar issue after upgrading the support pack. 
thanks
Lanny

  • Concept of CO- PA cost center assessment

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to ask if you could supply me with more info about the concept of cost center cost assessment in COPA. Is this a standard procedure that must done? I am having my 1st SAP implem. and have been preparing too hard to get much info. as I can take about COPA. I have understanding about value fields an characteristics BUT I am having a hard time to understand cost center allo. and why do is there a need to do it (or maybe not). Aren't they supposed to be an automatic process (distribution of figures to COPA reports)? Thanks and I would understand if the question may sound a little unclear.

    Hi,
    The cost center assessment to copa comes in places only for allocating the common costs.
    Generally, we do allocate the common costs from the common cost center to the respective user cost centers in the overhead accounting.
    If the need is to recognise the common overheads directly in COPA, then instead of reallocating the costs with in cost center accounting, we directly transfer the costs to copa thru costcenter assessment to copa.

  • Cost Center Assessment to COPA

    Hi,
    I have done Cost Center assessment to characteristics "Company Code" and "Product". System has even generated COPA documnet for costing based profitability analysis.
    However, in report developed through Report Painter(KE32), the value field for which the assessment got posted is not getting displayed.
    Can any one guide in this regard.
    Thanks in advance
    Sudhakar

    Hi Sudhakar,
    When you do the cost center assessment in COPA, you have given 2 characteristicsi.e product , company code and thru one value field.
    When designing report in ke32 (report) and form ke35(form), we will give certain characteristics, so check what are the parameters has been given in the report, bcz values flown thru copa assessment will be available only in compaby code and product not for any other characteristics. I guess you have characteristics in report other than these two.
    I hope this clarifies.

  • Error In Cost Center Hierarchy Creation

    Hi Guru's
    Error In Cost Center Hierarchy Creation
    Our Business scenario is we have controlling area 1000, under that we have cost center Group as ABC lower level to that  we create each business wise in lower level like 1100, 1200, 1300 under this we create 110010 for production  110020 employee 110030 dummy so on, by mistake the client has created  1400 below level to 1000 now  all cost center amount is booked in this is reflecting in 1400 and as well in ABC now I need to move all 1400 cost centers below ABC please let me know how to go about this.
    Regards,
    Bhaskar

    Hi,
    So, if it's standard hierarchy go to OKEON and just drag-and-drop this group under ABC; simple as that. In KSH2 (if it's 'alternative' group) the technology of moving is different, but still quite obvious: select the group you want to move and select the new placement.

  • Cost Center Assessment to Cost Hierarchy based on Actual Consumption error

    Assessment is set up:
    SENDER:   Cost Center: Overhead Expenses (values in expense accounts)
    RECEIVER:  Top Node of Cost Object Hierarchy  (material consumption has been posted to two objects - related account has value and quantity fields)
    Segment is set up:
    Sender Rules: Posted Amounts
    Share:100%
    Actual value origin
    Receiving tracing factor:
    Receiver rule: Variable Portions
    Var. portion type: Actual Consumption
    No Scaling
    Assumption is that "Var. portion type: Actual Consumptions" means the quantity in the consumption account on the receiver from the inventory posting.     Is this true?

    Hi dear Ajay, thank you for your answer.
    first, I understand the difference between KSUB and KSU5, in the defined scenario, we have both. planned values, become actual with the MEC activities. business definition.
    regarding the cycle, I have setup assessment cost element so we can get all planned lines posted as 1.
    On sender tab I have only the cost center. no cost element defined.
    receiver its cost center.
    furthermore, i've not setup allocation structure, so all cost elements should be allow, there is no restriction on this.
    the only difference is: planned costs which their origin is already an assessment are not being assessed again.
    I can show you the print screens with cycles setup if it helps

  • Cost center assessment in new GL and classic GL

    HI ALL
    I want to double check one thing. When you run cost center assessments in classic GL, the system will make entries in GLPCT table for PCA with assessment cost element. But when you got migrated into NEW GL then system will not make any entry in FAGLFLEXT table with assessment cost element. These assesments have no effect on PCA module. If I want to reflect the effect of costcenter assesments in PCA in new GL , where can I check for that?....Is there anyway to acheive this without activating both classic and new gl PCA?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you have defined variant for real time integration and it has "Cross profit center" checked and this variant is assigned to company code, then FI-CO reconcilation posting will be posted in each of the profit center.
    One can have a single account for all reconcilation posting or different FI-CO recon account can be used for each bussiness process / for each assessement cost element using substitution.
    FI-CO reco account is visible in the FAGLFLEXT and hence can be displayed in report.
    Regards

  • Error in Cost Center Hierarchy

    Dear all,
    When I delete all cost center in standard hierarchy by tcode OKC4, some cost centers still appear in cost center hierarchy with activation status is "red". How to delete all cost center with "red" activation status in this case ?
    When I check these cost centers by tcode KS02 or KS03, the system raises information "No data exist"  but when I create cost center with the same code by tcode OKEON, the system raise error "Cost center already exist".
    So how to solve the problem ? I want to clear all the cost center in standard hierarchy and create again in DEV (No transaction data existed).
    Thank you very much,
    Dat Lam

    Hi,
    Go to OKEON - Menu - Extras - Hierarchy-Master Data - Comparison and see what's the output. Genrally, you are not supposed to delete cost centres from the standard hierarchy.

  • MIRO Cost Element error for Cost center

    Hi,
    When i am doing MIRO - there are some price variances. System is giving the error to maintain the Cost center for that price differance cost element.
    But i have already maintain the Cost center for that Cost element in OKB9 Transaction. Why the system is asking for Cost center assignment again?
    Kindly help me
    Thanks
    Sunil

    Hi Sunil,
    Maintain the OKB9 settings with valuation area mandatory and dont give business area in the sub-sequent screen. Maintain only Valuation area and Cost center. It will not give any error and it will pull the cost center from OKB9.
    Thanks

  • Error in Cost center

    Dear All
    I have made a cost center 101 in company code 1000  which was valid from 01.04.2006 to 31.12.9999.
    Now the management wants that cost center to be under company code 2000 from 01.01.2010 to 31.12.9999.
    Using KS04, I deleted that cost center from validity period 01.01.2010 to 31.12.9999.
    Now when I create that same cost center 101 in company code 2000 with validity period 01.01.2010 to 31.12.999 i get the following error:
    No fiscal year defined for the analysis period
    Message no. KS370
    Diagnosis
    You have not maintained any fiscal years for the analysis period 01.04.2008 to 31.12.9999 in the current fiscal year variant V3.
    To execute consistency checks, the system requires information regarding the fiscal years. Certain fields must be unique for each fiscal year.
    System Response
    The system issues a warning, which you can ignore by choosing "ENTER".
    ACHTUNG:
    If you later maintain fiscal years for the affected time period, no consistency checks are made by the system. You should only skip the warning if the time periods involved are far in the future.
    Procedure
    Ignore the warning to confirm the intended entries.
    Choose Cancel if the planned entries are likely to lead to inconsistencies.
    If required, first maintain the fiscal year variant for the affected time period.
    When I press enter and ignore that warning message I get the following message:
    No further processing (contact your system administrator)
    Message no. KS022
    Diagnosis
    To ensure the consistency of your entries, check that they are unique for the fiscal year and whether it is impossible to change them because of existing totals records. For both these checks you must determine the fiscal year limits of the period. These are defined in the fiscal year variant assigned to the controlling area. In this case the fiscal year variant was not defined in FI configuration for all the fiscal years within the processing period. This means the SAP System cannot determine the fiscal year limits.
    System Response
    Processing is terminated.
    Procedure
    Define the fiscal year variant assigned to your controlling area fully for all the fiscal years within the analysis period with the function "Maintain FI configuration".
    Please advice.

  • Error KI222 - Cost Center Not Valid for Date

    Iu2019m having a problem goods issuing material to a cost center (movement type 201) via a call of the BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE BAPI (ECC 6.0).  I can post a specific material / plant / storage location / cost center combination without issue via MB1A but when attempting to call the BAPI processing the exact same data, I get the error message KI222: Cost center aaaa/ccccc does not exist on 05/14/2009.  (where aaaa = the appropriate controlling area and ccccc = the cost center).  Iu2019ve checked the validity dates on the cost center via KS03 and all looks fine (the cost center is valid until 12/31/9999).  The cost center is valid on the posting and entry date I'm passing in the BAPI header. 
    Any ideas what I may be doing wrong or if thereu2019s some field Iu2019m not appropriately selecting / flagging in the BAPI.  Iu2019m using the BAPI successfully for several other movement types (701, 702, 551, 552).

    are you sure that the posting and document dates you submit with the BAPI are correct?

  • Cost Center Assessment - cost element type 42

    Hi dear All,
    I got issues running KSU5 to allocate planned costs under cost element type 42. we were expecting that all planned costs (primary and secondary(cost element type 42)) could be allocated by credit cost center (actual). only primary costs are being allocated.
    Scenario:
    cost center planning (kp06) 1000 currencies in primary cost element in cost center A
    running planning assessment - KSUB: cycle uses assessment cost element (type 42): sender cost center A, receiver cost center B (all planned values). assessment cyles posts 1000 currencies from CC A to cost center B
    planning in cost center B (primary cost elements through kp06, 500 currencies) total planning 1000 from previous assessment  with CE type 42, and 500 from cc planning in a primari CE.
    by the period end closing, tcode KSU5 (allocation actual) is running. new cycle created, based on planned values (origini not actual, but planned amounts).
    we were expecting to allocate 1500 currencies from cost center B to cost center C (using 100% and through assessment cost element)).
    result: credit actual cost center B = 500 currencies debit actual cost center C = 500 currencies.
    1000 currencies pending on cost center B (planned).
    do you know why SAP is not allocating the 1000? even if those 1000 were planned in cost center B by assessement, a new allocation cycle should be able to post them or not?
    thank you for your outcome.
