Functional Area derivation as obligatory checkbox in Cost Center distribution cycle?

Dear All,
We are using Cost of Sales accounting with FI-CO online integration. Derivation of Functional Area for Cost Center assessment cycles is an obligatory indicator. Nevertheless I may create Cos Center distribution cycles without this option (what affects FI-CO online integration). Can anybody explain a system logic behind it?
Can I set Functional Area derivation as an obligatory checkbox for Cost Center distribution cycles too?
Bartlomiej Seidel

Hi,
I have searched for any useful note, but without result so far. The point is that any new distribution or assessment cycle (cost centers) in our company must work with Functional Area derivation (than FI-CO online integration works correctly). With our current SAP setup I must select this indicator for every assessment cycle - it is obligatory. But is not obligatory for distribution cycles - and I don't know why?
I would like to protect everybody from crating distribution cycles without FA derivation indicator (like it works now for assessment cycles).  How may I do it?

  • Function Area derive from cost center

    Hi, here is a question.
    The function area was input in the cost center master data. Cost center A ( Function area 1000), Cost center B (Function area 2000)
    Then creat a PO with Account Assignment Category(K), Item Category (B), input the cost center A in the PO.
    When I do MIRO, I change the cost center (A TO B), but the function is still 1000, not change to 2000. But if I delete the Function area in MIRO first, then change the cost center, the function area update to 2000.
    There is no default function area in GL account and cost element, also no substitution.
    Is it standard in SAP?  I want the Function area can be updated with the cost center. Any method?

    Here is what SAP help says about this.
    Functional area field for postings - ready for input?
    You can enter the functional area directly when entering G/L account postings, provided the "Functional area" field is shown in the field status group of the G/L account.
    SAP recommends that you do not show the "Functional area" field in the field status group of the G/L account, but rather that you have the system determine the functional area of the account assignment. This eliminates the risk of the user entering incorrect functional areas.
    You said you have functional area in cost center master data.  When you post documents, do you get func. area from the cost center automatically or not?

  • Assign Functional area to Profit Center Distribution Cycle postings

    Hi All,
    I am using a NEW GL distribution cycle (Tran Code : FAGLGA35) for distributing balances in the Dummy Profit center to relevent Profit centers.
    My Company is using Functional area for FIN STAT Ver and other reportings. When I run the profit center distribution cycle, it distirbutes the amounts but doesnot assign the Functional areas to the posting. Is there a way I can pass the functional area of the relevent postings of the accounts to the postings of each distribution postings.
    Thanks

    Dear MKR,
    Thank you for using the SAP SDN Forums,
    In this particular case, you could have a look at the following to
    see if it helps you, but I have not tested this for your case
    so it is not being offered as a definite solution:
    You could look at using FAGL_ALLO_SUBSTITUTE which might be able to
    help you to get the results that you want.
    Due to the inheritance logic in allocation, if you set "transfer
    field" option active for the field (T811I-INHER), the system copies
    the sender value to the receiver if the receive value is not specified.
    Please refer to SAP Help portal:
       http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/40/e1510735f30baee10000000a114cbd/frameset.htm
    You can deactivate "transfer field" flag in customizing
    and use BAdI : FAGL_ALLO_SUBSTITUTE to substitute the intended
    functional area. (This BAdI is the "official" way to substitute any
    field during allocation, rather than OBBH substitution.)
    I hope this may be of some assistance in resolving the issue.
    Kind Regards,
    Brendan

  • Can employees who are only Approvers have a Blank Cost Center?If Yes..please read

    Can employees who are only Approvers have a Blank Cost Center?
    If Yes, how do we populate the dummy value in T&E if it's not part of our Master Data Cost Center feed.
    Regards
    Sunder

    Hi Sunder,
    The BAdI that needs to be implemented is OTM_EMPL_ORG_ASSIGNMENT, provided you use the new IDOC ODT_EMPL and report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL_CE. (For the old IDOC there is a similar BAdI HROTM_EMPL_ORGANIZATION_FILTER.)
    If you already implemented the BAdI in ERP to add the dummy cost center assignment to the employee you just need to create the dummy cost center in CfTE.
    This can be done under
         Master Data Replication -> Manual Replication -> Cost Centers
    There you just can create a file and fill it manually directly within the transaction. Then it needs to be processes and afterwards you should go to the Import Monitor for Cost Centers and Click on button Replicate All. If you filled everything correctly after some minutes the dummy cost center should be created. You can control this under Display -> Cost Centers in the adminstrator cockpit.

  • Effect of Cost Center Distribution in COPA

    Hi,
    We are running the cost center distribution to transfer the cost from one cost center to another cost center.It is creating the controlling document but in COPA  reports the cost is not getting transfered from one cost center to another. How can we transfer the cost from  one cost center to another with the subsequent effect in COPA.
    Thanks
    Ariel

    Hi Ariel,
    when you refer to the cost center in COPA, are you talking about the field "sender cost center"?
    That field shows the costs center that the costs came from when they were transferred from cost center to COPA through an assessment cycle (KEU5). When you transfer costs from one cost center to another AFTER running the assessment cycles in KEU5, then that transfer cannot have any effect on COPA. You would have to first transfer from one cost center to the other and THEN run the COPA assessment in KEU5.
    I hope I have understood your question correctly

  • Down payment functionality for PO with account assignment K Cost Center

    QUESTION: Is there a way to turn-on down payment functionality for cost centers?
    When a vendor down payment is posted via tcode F-47 against a PO line item with INTERNAL ORDER as the account assignment, SAP posted the following documents from the payment run (tcode F110):
    1. Accounting Document
    dr  vendor / GL= downpymt clearing / internal order = IO1234 / cost center = CC5678
         cr  bank           
    2. Controlling Document
    dr internal order IO1234
    However, when a vendor down payment is posted against a PO line item with COST CENTER as the account assignment, SAP does not post any Controlling document, just the accounting document:
    dr  vendor / GL= downpymt clrg / cost center = CC5678
            cr bank
    From my research, it appears that the down payment functionality applies to internal orders and projects only. Then settlement is run to move the values from internal order to AUC assets and/or cost centers. Perhaps I'm missing a configuration step for the cost center piece?
    Your prompt response will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    system wont generate any controlling document for noted items  downpayment and normal payments.
    Because all are balance sheet accounts. Controlling documents will generated for only P&L accounts.
    Your analysis correct.

  • Function module expression for dynamic value for Cost center in BRF

    Hello Experts,
    We are in SRM 7.0 and our business object is shopping cart using BRF.
    Right now we have Cost Center Approver and its evaluation id ()zev_sc_**_*) has expression zc_sc_*_** that checks whether overallvalue >= 5000. It initiates cost center approver only if value is greater than or equal to 5000. But this is static expression. We want it in a dynamic way so that we don't have to modify this value frequently. Therefore we have set approach to use an expression of Function Module BAdI as expression. We have a new z table which contains value field zval. Now I want to know how or what should be the process so that this FM knows the corresponding value from a z table that user might select in the SC.How it should be linked to this. I am using /SAPSRM/WF_BRF_0EXP000 function module. Please advise where should the code be written ? Any method ? And what should be the exporting and importing parameters for this ?
    Right now I can see EV_VALUE, EV_TYPE, EV_CURRENCY etc as exporting paramters. Looking for your suggestions experts.
    Thank you.
    Best regards.

    Dear abhijeet,
    just follow the steps.
    i) I believe you have created the event as Zev_***  with implememt Class     0EVENT.
    ii) copy the std fm /SAPSRM/WF_BRF_0EXP000 to z custom fm
    iii)  since you want to have an  expression as function module procurement type create expression  with                                                                               
    expression type  0CF001
                                                                                    result type B ( boolean)
                                                                                    Buffering as event-controlled buffering
    and very important procurement type as function module.
    iv) immediatly you may find written as AccessFM where pass your custom z function module.
    v) finally link this expression to your event.
    In the custom function module  the exporting parameter EV_VALUE is solely responsible for identifieng the approval based upon the approval criteria. If the field EV_VALUE = 'X' this notify that the approval is required  for current process level, otherwise if it is initial then it will skip the current level and continue with the next level.
    whatever your coding should be written in FM.
    just look into below code
      DATA LO_WF_BRF_EVENT       TYPE REF TO /SAPSRM/CL_WF_BRF_EVENT.
      DATA LO_CONTEXT_PROVIDER   TYPE REF TO /SAPSRM/IF_WF_CONTEXT_PROVIDER.
      DATA: LV_HEADER LIKE BBP_PDS_SC_HEADER_D.
      DATA: LT_ITEM TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF BBP_PDS_SC_ITEM_D.
      LO_WF_BRF_EVENT ?= IO_EVENT.
      LO_CONTEXT_PROVIDER = LO_WF_BRF_EVENT->GET_CONTEXT_PROVIDER( ).
      CALL METHOD LO_CONTEXT_PROVIDER->GET_DOCUMENT
        IMPORTING
          EV_DOCUMENT_GUID = LV_DOCUMENT_GUID
          EV_DOCUMENT_TYPE = LV_DOCUMENT_TYPE.
    pass this guid in the below function module in order to get the SC details.
    GET SC DETAILS
      CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL'
        EXPORTING
          I_GUID    = LV_DOCUMENT_GUID
        IMPORTING
          E_HEADER  = LV_HEADER
        TABLES
          E_ITEM    = LT_ITEM
    After that loop the internal  table LT__ITEM   and you decide based upon your approval criteria for each line item level wheather the gross price of  line item is exceed 5000k or not.
    you should decide the value for field EV_VALUE within the loop so that each line item will be verified for approval.
    Pls contribute if this helpfull.

  • Business area is not being specified in cost center master.

    Hello Professional friends,
    When i specify Business area in existing cost center master data, it appears an error massage -    "Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
    I tried to change the validity by analysis Period, when i do this, it appears anothe error " No further processing (contact your system administrator)"
    Its user critical requirement that he want to specify business for all new and existing cost center.
    there is no problem with new cost center.
    Waiting for valuable suggestion.

    Hello,
    The rule is that if you make any actual or planned date within the current year, you cannot make any changes to any of the organizational units within the cost center master.
    From the next year, you can remove / change the business are within the cost center master, provided:
    You have to change the validity period of the cost center master by doing:
    Go to KS02
    Edit ==> Analysis Period
    put your cursor on the valid from e.g. 01.01.1900 and click F5 (the line gets selected and become blue)
    Click on Other Analysis period and then change the analysis period. The new analysis period must be starting with the first date of the next fiscal year.
    Now change or remove the business area.
    For this year, surely you cannot change the business area, since there postings.
    Do not try to write any ABAP program to change the standard in order avoid the business area change error, it would end up data inconsistencies.
    Thanks,
    Ravi

  • Cost center distribution

    Hi,
    Kindly Advice how to distribute expenses from one cost center to different cost centers
    My client was asking for only reporting purpose but amount should not allocate from one cost center to different cost centers
    For Ex : 20 G/L accounts are created as a cost element while doing the transaction with this G/L accounts they will assign one cost center
    Month end they want to distribute ratio wise to different cost centers but amount should not post to different cost centers
    and every month percentages will be change based on that client should get the report
    Is there any standard report?
    Regards
    Srinivas

    HI Mgitur
    Thanks for speedy reply
    Actually my client was asking for reporting purpose only
    For ex : 2 cost elements are there (G/L accounts)
                  2100000 (G/L)
                  2200000 (G/L)
    In this G/L accounts transaction are done with 100000 (210000 G/L) rs and 150000 (220000 G/L)
    While posting the transactions to this G/L accounts the cost center "A" was assigned
    Now these amount he want to distribute percentage wise to different cost centers like B,C,D
    But this amount should not allocate to different cost centers that amount should be in the same G/L account and same cost center
    i have tried distribution cycle in KSV1 t code and run in the KSV5
    But in that we will mention some percentages based on that i am getting report properly in the test run mode
    Unfortunately if client remove test run button that amount will be posted to different cost centers so it's not correct way and morever every month percentages also will be change based on that client should be change percentages and have to get report based on new percentages
    In the KSV1 client cannot change percentages because of configuration issue so he cannot change in the KSV1
    Please give me the suggestion for this
    Regards
    Srinivas
