How to change a cost center ?

Hi
Currently one of our Price variance account is updated in a cost center. We want to change the cost center ?
Any input will be highly appreciated
Thanks
Ni

HI,
the corresponding cost element to your price diff. account has a cost center assigned as default CO-object.
Check:
1: if its on cost element master level (KA02) and change it
2: if it is defaulted for the combination of company code+cost element (T-Code OKB9) and change it
3: if the cost center is substituted via substitution rule ( T-Code OKC9) and change it.
Best regards, Christian

How to change in cost center?

Can some body please explain:
How to change the depreciation expenditure charged from one cost center to another? Since the depreciation has been posted for the 2 months that have been closed, is it possible still to repost line items?
To change the cost center thru KB61, is accounting document necessary?

thanks for your reply!
Actually the cost center is being changed from Aug onwards ,so the Depn posted to the old cost center for July needs to be reposted to the new cost center using KB61 taking the reference of accounting doc from KSB1 for the old cost center.
But when i am using KB61 to repost the depn , system gives the error message " Transaction Repost CO Line item has been locked"
ie July period is already closed.
I do not have the authority to open the closed periods and repost. Is there is any other way?
Also, once the reposting is done, Cost center can be changed for the assets thru AS02 so that system automatically posts the accumulated depn to the new cost center

How to changed the Cost Center Date

Hi All,
I have an issue. Cost center is created which have a valid date from 10.01.2009.
Upon checking my set up in the SAP my default date format it is DD.MM.YYYY.
It have mistakenly inputted a different date instead of October 1, 2009 it inputted January 10, 2009.
To resolved: When i went to KS02. I could not edit the valid dates just the master information. And also in KS12.
Is there a way i could change the valid dates of the cost center?

Hi,
But did you succeed to delete it via KS04 or not? If there are postings in this period, then obviously, it won't be possible to delete it and the validity period could not be shortened retroactively anymore.

Eli
P.S. OKEON won't help you...

How do I change Resource Cost Center only and retain historical cost center data?

How would a Project Server Admin accommodate changes in the resource's cost center itself?
For example, Ken (timesheet submitter) records Feb time in cost center C1, but then transfers to a new team, which is in cost center C2 on Mar 1st.
When I change his cost center at the resource level, reporting indicates all of his previous C1 time as a resource under the C2 cost center, and all of his C1 time looks like it's incorrectly in C2.
I am thinking about adding custom resource fields to track these changes, but it seems like a lot of extra work, if something already exists that I can use.
Thanks,
Marty

Marty,
AFAIK, there is no way to do this OOB as Resource Fields are not 'time-phased'.
A 'possible' alternative, like you mentioned, could be be to use custom fields to track, the change (like Effective Date, Old Cost Center), and then somehow write a query to consider the old cost center between the dates. I have not tried this personally,
just a thought.

Change the cost center

Hi all,
In a report, I must change the cost center for Purchase Requisition and Purchase Order.
In my opinion I must use the bapi: "BAPI_REQUISITION_CHANGE" and "BAPI_PO_CHANGE", but I don't know how to use.
Is this correct ?
If yes, can someone explain to me how to call them to change cost center ?
Thank you in advance.

Hi
Please refer the below link you may useful.

Regarding Change in Cost Center after Advance payment

Hi,
PO is created, against that PO Advance payment is given and payment is given to Vendor of advance.
Now query is that the while generating PO wrong cost center is entered, and user want to change that.
How we can solve this problem ?
Regards,
Akshata

Hi,
You cannot change the cost center in down payment entry, but can be changed in PO.
Then again you have to use KB61 to do transfer posting from one cost center to another, since this will only post an internal CO ducment to adjust the balances from one cost center to another, assuming that CO update for Controlling is active in your system.
Use down payment accounting document no in KB61.

my problem is untill now i used old cost center, to day onwards i want use new cost center... how to modify in my cost element in cost center.
i want to modify my old cost center and put new cost center.
Thank you.
Ashok kumar

hi Anil,
Check your settings in the Transaction code OKB9. In this transaction, default cost centers are maintained for each Company Code and Cost element.
Else you have defined default cost centers in your Cost Element. In such Case, use t-code KA02 and change the cost Center
If you satisfied with the reply then plese assign points.

How to block the cost center

Can any tell me how to block the cost center, can we detele which is having values. can we delete which is not having values
Regards
Chandra Sekhar Reddy.P

Hi,
Once you post actual values or any planning exists on this cost center you cant delete.
To ristrict posting to cost you have two options.
1.You can change validity period.
change end from 12/31/9999 to what ever date you want to stop posting(e.g. as of today 10/23/08)
2. lock all postings to cost center on Control data tab in KS02.
Thanks,

Change in Cost center

Hey All,
I want to find out how I can change the cost center on one of the recurring vouchers. Do I need to delete the existing one and set up a new one?
Please explain the consequences on changing the cost centers. What are the other changes we can expect by doing this.
Please advice.
Thanks!

Hello,
Either you delete the old one and create a new reference document.
You cannot change the cost center on a recurring document.
Regards,
Ravi

How to delete a cost center hierarchy

Hi all,
We are having a issue regarding the cost centers. The cost centers have been assigned wrong cost center numbers. Now the client wants a set of new cost center numbers to be used in the system. In order for that to be done I thought may be if I can change the cost center hierarchy that has been assigned to the controlling area in OKKP transaction we can assign new cost centers to the new hierarchy and solve the problem.
But the system does not allow us to assign a different cost center hierarchy from the already existing one when cost centers are assigned to it.
My issue is how to delete the cost center hierarchy.
If that is not possible how can we remove the cost centers assigned to the cost center hierarchy ( is this possible)
Last question can we delete the transaction data posted to cost centers.
Points will be assigned to all the replies.
Thanks,
Sarada

Hello Sarada,
If the requirement is to track new cost centers only going forward, then you may need to create new Cost Centers, block old cost centers. Create a new node in the hierarchy saying "Old-do not use".
If the requirement is to have the history transactions reflect the new cost centers as well, then you will need to undertake a project for SLO (System Landscape Optimization) which will replace this data at table level. This is a major project in itself and the programs are proprietary to SAP.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I have one asset 1234. for that Already we closed the year 2008.
In the Asset master we are using Cost Center -- ABCD, but from 2009.04.01 m i want to change the Cost Center -- XYZ. For that i tried to change the cost center in following way;

"Automatic Transfer is not Possible for Asset 1234. "
Details of SAP message :

    Message no. AMOC 001
Diagnosis
    You changed assignments to organizational units for asset E8
    840200000066-0. The indicator for 'time-independent organizational
    units' is set for this company code in Asset Accounting Customizin
    This means that the system is supposed to create a transfer docume
    automatically.
    However, asset E8 840200000066-0 manages one of the following:
    o   Open items
    o   Investment measures
    o   Down payments
    Therefore, the system could NOT automatically create a transfer document. "
So please tell me , How can i change the Cost center in Asset Master.
Sachin

We have many company codes and all company codes have same configuration and All company code have time independent settings.So why this message is only coming for this asset class and in this company codes only. I tried in other company codes with same asset class, but its working, No error message is coming.

Change of Cost Center in Asset Master for Investment measure (AuC) Assets.

Hi,
We have an asset class 4001 which has been maintained as an investment measure for AuC. I want to change cost center for all the assets that are maintained in the asset class 4001. The system is showing cost center field in display mode in change transaction of the asset AS02 for all the assets in the asset class. I want to replace the old cost center with new cost center in the asset master record. How can I make the cost center field changeable ?
Can anyone help me ?
Regards,
K.S.K

Hi Kattula,
We can change the cost center for AUC with Investment Measure. To do this you need to identify the relevant WBS element assigned to your asset. You can find the WBSE in Origin tab of your asset master record.
Then go to the change WBS element Transaction CJ12 and change the cost center. Once you change the cost center of the WBSE, the change would automatically get reflected in the correspondind asset master record.
This would solve your issue.
Thanks & Regards

Change of Cost Center Assignment for Organization Unit in HR

Hi,
Recently my client is changing their cost center number from 6char to 5 char format. I have created customized mapping table to link between old cost center number and new ones.
Create new cost center referencing to old cost center is done too.
However, for each Personnel Number, i need to change the cost center assignment which link to org unit. I have done this too manually at t-code PPOM. How can I do this for mass change? I have a list of org unit number with me. Is there any standard program to do this or i should use LSMW ?
How do I make sure for each Personnel number, their cost center assignment will change to new 5 char format in the end as required?
I am new to HR module.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
As Sikandar said, you will have to write an LSMW or BDC ( where in you can check and validate the input Cost centers) using PP01 or Po10.
Also I think if you use BDC or LSMW you will have to run the RHINTE30 report. Check the documentation on RHINTEXX reports to get better idea.
Cheers..
Ajay
