I have an issue it is very important please some one can help me
The issue is How many cost centres can assign to one GL or Cost Element account
Please it is important

Thank you
LLVB

Hi,
The concept of 'default' implies only one object. 'Default' means what will come instead of empty value and, of course, the value is only single. If you have conditions to specify when this or another cost centre should appear in the document, then you can make substitutions and define those conditions and cost centres there.
Also, keep in mind, that the assignment is to cost element and not to G/L (which are equal, of course, for P&L accounts) - just operate with SAP terms.
Regards,
Eli

Assignment of Cost centre in OM

Dear Experts ,
I am having a scenario ...can two cost centre be assigned to one person. Its like person X is assigned one cost centre.Person Y has left the company.Now we want to assign the same cost centre which was under Y to X..So, person X has two cost centre under him.
Is it possible? as I am facing problem while doing this..If yes..please tell the steps or method.
Regards,
Tanu.

Dear Tanuja,
1. Why do want to assign two cost center with one person?
Info type 0027:
You can use IT 0027 & subtype 01 for distribution of employee salaries.
Ex: Total employee salary want to go particular WBS Element or Order type then maintain IT 0027 with 100%. So when ever payroll postings happening, that particular employee salary will get posted as per IT 0027.
Info type 0001:
where we will maintain master cost center
Assignment of Personnel Costs to the Master Cost Center
Purpose
This data entry scenario for cost accounting assumes that employees always work for their master cost center and that the receiver of an activity is not debited with the personnel costs. This is the standard scenario if you do notimplement SAP Payroll (PY).
If you do use SAP Payroll, you should not use this scenario in the following cases:
You want to debit the receiver object of an activity with the personnel costs
You want to perform activity allocation
The sender cost center is not the employee’s master cost center
This would cause an imbalance in cost accounting, since the sender cost center would be credited with the entered hours and the master cost center debited with the personnel costs.Prerequisites
Employees who enter their working times using a data entry profile specifying their cost center must always work for the same master cost center(s), as specified in the Organizational Assignment (0001) or Cost Distribution (0027) infotypes.Process flow
You enter an activity allocation or confirmation in the time sheet.
In Controlling, the activity allocation credits the sender cost center and debits the receiver cost center.
If an attendance, absence or wage type is entered at the same time, the system writes the working time information to the Attendances (2002), Absences (2001), or EE Remuneration Info infotype (2010) in HR.
The Payroll component determines the personnel costs for the times.
In Controlling, the employee’s master cost center is debited according to what was specified in theOrganizational Assignment (0001) or Cost Distribution (0027) infotypes.
So my suggestion is before assigning two cost centers with one employee just once discuss with your CO consultant he suggest you how to it..!

Organisational keys are assigned based cost centre associated with Bus Area

Hi ,
I need to add the authorization check in the Z* program Within TE, restrictions are being implemented based upon organisational key. Organisational keys are assigned based upon whether or not the cost centre has an associated business area. If a business area exists, then a restricted organisational key (in range US01* to US50*) is assigned. Otherwise, a non-restricted organisational key is used.
Can any one help me !
Thanks,
Nelson

The authorization check for trip statistics reporting has a maximum of three stages:
Before displaying the selection screen
Before the selection screen is displayed a check is made as to whether the user has the authorization to view just his own trip data, or also the trip data of other employees.
The following check is made:
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'P_TRAVL'
ID 'AUTHP' FIELD 'E'
ID 'BUKRS' DUMMY
ID 'PERSA' DUMMY
ID 'KOSTL' DUMMY
ID 'PERSG' DUMMY
ID 'PERSK' DUMMY
ID 'VDSK1' DUMMY
ID 'PTZUO' DUMMY
ID 'AUTHF' DUMMY
ID 'AUTHS' DUMMY.
If the employee only has authorization to view his own data, the personnel number is determined using the Infotype Communication (0105). This personnel number is then displayed in the selection screen of the relevant report and can not be overwritten.
If the Infotype 0105 has not been maintained the program ends abnormally and an appropriate error message is issued. No further checks are made as the employee can only display his own data.
If the employee has the authorization to display the data of other employees as well, further authorization checks are made during the processing of the personnel and trip data.
During processing of personnel data
The following check is made for every personnel number read from the database:
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'P_TRAVL'
ID 'AUTHP' DUMMY
ID 'BUKRS' FIELD pa0001-bukrs
ID 'PERSA' FIELD pa0001-werks
ID 'KOSTL' FIELD pa0001-kostl
ID 'PERSG' FIELD pa0001-persg
ID 'PERSK' FIELD pa0001-persk
ID 'VDSK1' DUMMY
ID 'PTZUO' DUMMY
ID 'AUTHF' DUMMY
ID 'AUTHS' DUMMY.
If the check is successful, the trip data for the personnel number is processed, if unsuccessful, the personnel number is ignored.
During processing of trip data
The following check is made for each selected trip:
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'P_TRAVL'
ID 'AUTHP' DUMMY
ID 'BUKRS' FIELD pa0001-bukrs
ID 'PERSA' FIELD pa0001-werks
ID 'KOSTL' FIELD pa0001-kostl
ID 'PERSG' FIELD pa0001-persg
ID 'PERSK' FIELD pa0001-persk
ID 'VDSK1' DUMMY
ID 'PTZUO' DUMMY
ID 'AUTHF' FIELD authf
ID 'AUTHS' DUMMY.
The AUTHF field has 3 positions:
Position 1: S - Statistics data for reporting
Position 2: - Request status of trip
Position 3: - Settlement status of trip
If the check is successful, the selected trip is displayed in the report list, if unsuccessful, the trip is ignored.

Master Cost Centre - create and assign (steps required)

Hi All,
I am currently working on a IDES system. I want to create and assign Master Cost Centre. Please help me in providing the steps to create and assign the same.
Regards,
Chinmay

Hi Chinmay,
Cost Center creation is done by FI Team as that comes under FI module and lot of the other things need to be done. If you just want to create Cost Center you can go to
Financials -> Controlling (CO) -> Cost Center Accounting -> Master Data -> Cost Centers -> Create Cost Centers
Tcode for Creating Cost Center is KS01 and for changing KS02
You also need to Activate Cost Center Accounting in Controlling Area
Financials -> Controlling (CO) -> Cost Center Accounting -> Activate Cost Center Accounting in Controlling Area table V_TKA01_GD
For assigning cost center to employee, you can assign it in IT0001 whihc is the master cost center and IT0027 where you can assign overriding cost center
Hope the information will be helpful

Hi
First understand the basic MM process.
There are different types of procurement process say Stock Material Procurement, Consumable Material Procurement, External Service procurement & some special procurements like subcontracting, consignment, Stock transfer etc.,
In case of Stock material Procurement, while creating Po you Must enter the material, during goods receipt the GL account will be determined thru Valuation class in the Material Master and will be posted to stock account ( Inventory)
Incase of Consumable material you must assign some account assignment object like asset, cost center in PO here you have the option to use Either Material or Short text. But the Cost center or Asste is must to determine the GL account during the goods receipt or Invoice receipt posting.
Hope it helps
Thanks/Karthik

Cost Centre Derivation Issue at the time of PGI

Dear Experts,
At the time of Posting Post Goods Issue, SD Consultant is facing error that GL Account 6* requires assignment to a CO Object.
According to my understanding, system should derive Cost Centre at the time of P.G.I through following logic :
I have assigned Profit Centre : 999999 to the Cost Centre : ABCD and the said profit centre is being used at the time of Sales Order Posting. While doing PGI, system should derive cost centre data from Profit Centre Data which is used in Sales Order but currently system is not behaving like this.
Another way is to assign respective cost centres against COGS Gls through T-Code : OKB9 which is not right I think. Because how can we map Cost Centre Data with Profit Centre Data in order to get Profit Centre Wise Profitability Reports?
Please guide me any solution.
Regards,
Sapna

Hi Sapna,
For most cases, your COGS account should not be a cost element.
Secondly, if you want to make it a cost element, you will have to maintain OKB9 for it, either on the basis of profit center or plant.
System cannot pick cost center based on the cost center master data because there may be many cose centers assigned under the same profit center. There is no one-to-one mapping of cost center to profit center.
I would suggest you do not make COGS as cost element unless the sale order is an MTO sales order or business insists on it.
If business insists on it, then add the cost element to OKB9.

Asset Posting-Cost Centre input field

I am trying to post an asset acquisition using FB01. While posting the amount to the asset, system does not show the cost centre as greyed out eventhough the FSGs for GL and posting key are suitably modified with 'cost centre' as 'optional'. How the cost centre field is coming greyed out and not able to enter a value at the time of APC posting ?
Please offer your comments.

Hi Jyoti
Thanks for messaging. In fact I had assigned a cost centre in the Asset Master. I was trying to change the cost centre in the FI Posting. Hence it was greyed out. Forgetting this aspect, I was doing a wrong move.

Statistical Cost Centre problem

Hello All,
I have created project in PS (WBS structure). In WBS Basic data tab, I am assigning a Cost Centre.( This Cost Centre will be statistical, as the posting will be done against WBS.
However when i am doing posting againts WBS thru FB50, the actual cost gets posted against WBS. But it is not appearing as Statistical cost against the cost centre in report S_ALR_87013611. However when I maintain a Cost Centre during posting in FB50 along with WBS, the cost appears as statistical cost. Is it a standard behaviour ? or is it possible by some settings to see the statistical postings against CC, even if i am not mentioning it in FB50 and just maintaning it in basic data of WBS?
Please let me know.Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Sarang

Hello,
The way it works is opposite of how you want to use. In the WBS element control tab, you can mark a WBS element as statistical, which means that the WBS element is statistical and choose to post the actual costs to a cost center, which you can enter in the master data. When you post FB50 the WBS will be statistical and cost center will be real.
If you do not mark WBS as statistical then the cost center field in the control tab has no meaning. For a non-statistical WBS when you use in FB50 the actual costs go to WBS and the statistical costs go to cost center, if you enter it.

F-92 posting error- Cost centre locked for revenue posting

Hello,
While I am trying to post F-92 (Asset Retirment), I get the following error:
"Cost center AR011001 in controlling area 1000 is locked for revenue postings on 25.11.2009."
How do I go ahead?
Thanks,

Hi Eli,
Thanks for the quick response.
I am aware I can remove the lock indicator in the cost centre master data. We had earlier uploaded cost centre master data through LSMW .
My question is once the lock is removed , we will be able to go ahead and post to the cost centre .The Gl account used here is CLEARING REVENUE ACCOUNT FIXED ASSET and when we assign the cost centre with lock indicator we get the message
"Cost center AR011001 in controlling area 1000 is locked for revenue postings on 25.11.2009"
Would like to know the impact (apart from effect on reporting) once the lock indicator is removed.
Thanks,

Cost centre with G/L account

Hi All,
I need some information on how system is picking G/L account automatically when i enter cost centre.
Where these settings are made.
Your help is highly appreciated

I dont think when you enter a Cost centre, the GL will be picked automatically. Could you please tell me where you are able to do like this ?
Instead when you make a fi posting, you can mention the cost centre in the CO assignment field so that the cost element created for the particular GL account will be posted in that Cost centre. It would be appropriate to say the cost element will automatically updated in the Cost Centre. Gl is linked to Cost element which is linked to Cost centre. You can assign a Cost centre by default in the master of Cost element or you can mention a Cost centre in the GL posting or you can define automatic account assignments for Cost elements through (OKb9).

Sales order line item assign to cost center

Hi Experts,
I would like to know how can I assign a cost centre to a line item in a sales order? Currently we are assigning our line items to a profit centre.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Catherine

Dear Catherine,
One way, to assign a cost center to a sales order, is based on Sales Org, Dist Channel, Division and Order Reason code.
T. Code: OVF3, or
Path: SPRO --> IMG --> Sales and Distribution --> Basic Functions --> Account Assignment --> Assign Cost Center
For More, refer -
[Assign a Cost Center manually in a Sales Order|http://www.sap-img.com/sd007.htm]
Best Regards,
Amit.
Note: You must consult with FI-Counterpart, and check with:
T. Code: OKB9
Using this Transaction, you can determine a cost center, from profit center, maintained in to Material Master.

Automatic cost centre in po

Hi Guru's,
Where we have to make the setting to come cost centre into purchase order automatically.Plz tell me .
thnks in advance

Hi,
Identify the Material group which you need this automatic cost centre assignment either in Material master or with out material master.
Assign the Valuation class to Material group which you need to consider the Cost elements which is assigned to Valuation class.
check this IMG settings to assign the Val class to Material group
SPROMMPurchasing--Material master - Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master
Then in OBYC include these assigned Valuation class to Transaction key GBB as the consumption account
Create that G/L accounts as the Cost elements with the help of FI consultant.
Assign the Cost Centres to this Cost elements in OKB9 transaction,
So when ever you create the PR/PO & if the Material group is come into picture then system automatically assign that G/L account & Cost centre in the Account assignment tab.
