Ajay,
Thanks for your reply.
Actually this is a requirement for our BW system. I checked all the records to find their OBJNR start with "OR", but we need to get the function area information. Do you know how can I get that?
The link below listed all the fields we have on BW side, actually it has function area, but it returns blank, we tried to apply one OSS note in the source ECC system, but still no value returned for this field. So we have to find another way to get the function area.

Point has been assigned to you and thanks for your time in advance!

  • How to change Functional area in cost center master

    Dear Guru,
    As required, i have to change the Functional area in cost center master data.
    SAP Warning Message :
    Transaction data exists; note long text
    Note
    A change of the functional area can lead to inconsistencies when reversing documents.
    If documents are reversed after the functional area has been changed, in some cases,
    the reversal document may be posted with the new functional area.
    My question is how to change the new functional area to the old one after reversing documents.
    We aren't using Special Purpose Ledger . Please Help me, thanks.

    Hi
    For the transactions already posted you will not be able to change the Functional Area. Also if those documents are getting reversed now after the change, the reversal document will get posted to the new Functional Area only.
    For all those documents which gets reversed after the change, you need to pass FI journal entry by changing the Functional area in the journal entry and not in the Cost Center Master

  • Functional areas vs. cost center groups for cost of goods sales

    What are the benefits of using functional areas over cost center groups when building your p&l for cost absorbtion or visa versa?  Which of the two is recommended?

    Hi,
    1: a P&L statement does not only contain cost-center related postings, you can have different CO-objects (Internal order, WBS-Element,...)but all of them contain the functional area in its master record.
    The P&L reporting structure (created via report painter) can use account groups but restricted to one functional area for porper P&L structure creation.

  • How to get rid of the notifications center from the menu?

    I unchecked all the "in notifications center" boxes so there is nothing in there. But the notifications center icon is still up there on the menu, over on the right side.
    Is there a way to just get rid of it completely?
    Thanks,
    doug

    From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the path to /System/Library/CoreServices/
    Locate “Notification Center.app” and click on the name to rename it to “Notification Center-disabled.app”, authenticate the change when prompted
    Now launch Terminal, found in /Applications/Utilities/ and type the following command:
    killall NotificationCenterQuit out of Terminal
    Notifications will no longer be posted, alerts will be gone, and the menu bar icon is no longer visible. If you do attempt to get to Notification Center either through a keyboard shortcut or the sideways swipe, you’ll be presented with a blank side of the screen.

  • Custom Search Help for Functional Area of Cost Centre(KS01/KS02)

    Hi,
    I need to implement a custom search help and custom enhancement for the field Functional Area in Basic Data tab of Cost Centre Create/Change(KS01/KS02) transactions. Details of the requirement are as below:
    1. There will be a custom relation for the Cost Centre category and Functional Area which was maintained thru a SAP standard table TKA05 and a custom table.
    2.When the relation to Cost Centre category and Functional Area is a one to one it exist in the TKA05 and if its one to many it will be maintained in the custom table.
    3. The requirement is when the Cost Center to Functional area is maintained in table TKA05(One to One) in this case the corresponding Functional Area needs to be populated automatically after entering the cost centre and pressing a enter key by user.
    4.When the Cost Centre Category and Functional area does not exist in table TKA05 and existing in custom table(One to Many) in this case the F4 should be enabled for user selection with the list of Functional area values corresponding to the cost centre category entered that are maintained in the custom table.
    As per the functionality provided by SAP the input help(F4) of the field Functional area in Cost Center does not have any relation with Cost Centre Category. The existing F4 is from the Value Table(TFKB) attached to the domain of FKBER.
    Please provide your valuable inputs to implement the above requirement. Your input will be rewareded.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Prasad.

    kalyani,
    i can see your requirement in below way..
    as it just reads: you need to assign the standard cost center help to a z cost center field in component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC.. which actually is fetched though the component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH
    so, if you see the component controller of SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC you will see the component
    USAGE_SH_F4     /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH                        
    USAGE_SH_F4     /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH     INTERFACECONTROLLER
    so you can replicate the same functionality for your z field.
    but can you clarify one thing.. why are you going for this z field in place of standard field ?

  • How to Get Rid of the Extra cents left on your gift Card balance?

    I would very much like some help on how to get rid of the 65 cents I have left in my itunes account, without having to spend it on something, or make a new account, or contact Apple. Please someone help with this, I'm sure many other are having trouble as well!!!!

    I noticed there is an extension which lets you clear the title of the current page or replace it with other text. This seems to work equally well in private and non-private windows, however, it doesn't appear to have an option to automatically do it in all private windows. Maybe someone can add that feature (the author isn't maintaining the add-on any more).

  • Field Business Area in cost center cannot be changed

    Hello all,
    we would like to change the "Business Area FS" (OB65) field for our
    company code to required. But if we do that, we have issues with 2 of
    our cost centers (ks02, analysis period 01/01/10-12/31/10) that won't
    allow us to enter a business area.
    We get the following error message:
    NA KS134 Field change Business Area is not possible.
    Diagnosis: To ensure of existing data, you can only change object
    Business Area if no transaction data exists in the change period; that
    is, neither plan data nor actual data has been posted.
    I have checked with our accounting and the cost center report does not
    have any data in actual nor budget.
    Somehow I figured out that we do have an entry in table CEKO for this
    cost center for 2010. (se16n). I did some further research and tried to
    test report RKPLNC18 to delete this entry. But I get the message:
    the deletion could not be carried out. The following plan/actual
    records are available...
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Anne

    Hi
    You can change the business area in cost center by changing the Analysis period. If there's any data exsist it is not allow you to change the business area. If else block or eleate the cost center and create a new one ( even though this might not permitted if  data exsist in related to cost center.

  • Change of Business Area in Cost Center

    Hi,
    We want to change the business area for the existing cost center from next fiscal year.
    Suppose i have a cost center 1001ADM with Business area 1000 and validity time is 01.04.2007 to 31.12.2999.
    Now i want to change the business area to 2000 for the existing cost center 1001ADM with effect from 01.04.2008.
    Regards
    Balaji

    Hi,
    Changing the business area is possible.  Go to KS02> Menus> Analysis period --> Give the new analysis period for which you want to change the field business area.
    Now give the new business area.  you will get a message changing this field will take time to check the dependent data.  Give 'Yes'.  It will check all the depending data and then change the field for the new analysis period.
    Good Luck!!!!!
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Change of Business Area to Cost Center (my first thread , please help)

    Hi Everybody i'm Charmaine Leena Martin freshly certified  FICO consultant , this is my first thread i'm posting, please help me with the same.
    A wrong business area has been assigned to a cost center and postings have taken place in the same.
    while using t-code KS02: change cost center , for rectifying the business area , i get the following error:
    "Field change business area is not possible (transaction data exists)"
    so i've created a new cost center and assigned it the right business
    and using t-code kb61 : i have posted the documents to the new cost center
    at that time system generates a co-document automatically:
    But the accounting document of which transfer postings have taken place still shows old business area and cost center
    Please let me know why is it so ,
    and what has to be done with the CO document that gets posted automatically
    and is there any other way out of changing the business area without creation of new cost center
    Moderator: Please, search before posting

    Hi Leena
    Welcome to SDN
    Do KB11N to post the cost back to the Wrong cost center
    Do an FI Posting again Dr the Correct new cost center and Cr the Old wrong cost center
    This will match both FI and CO

  • How to change company code in cost center master

    Hi,
    Can anyone throw me the light about how to change company code in cost center master? User make some mistake. They maintained wrong company code in cost center master and there are some transactions already posted to this cost center. I would appreciate all attention and point will be reqard. Thanks much
    Best Regards,
    Bird

    Hi,
    The cost center master data fields have time dependancy.  Following are the details of time dependancy.
    You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity types, and business processes as time-based. Changes to any other time interval are possible at any given time. Data storage is also time-based. In this way, you can store multiple database records for a master data record, each holding different information.
    The time-based dependencies are determined by SAP and cannot be changed. The following dependencies are possible:
    Not time-based
    Day-based
    Period-based
    Fiscal Year-based
    Cost Center's company code field's time based dependancy is Fisal Year Based and hence, the company code can be changed on cost center only on new fiscal year.  And hence, system will not allow changing company code on cost center master data until new fiscal year if transactions are posted to the cost center.
    You may have to think of work around :
    1) Create new cost center with correct co code
    2) Repost the cost posted to old cost center (with wrong co code) to the new cost center.
    Explore the possibility of this work around on your system with the key user and then see whether this option works out.
    Hope this helps.  Pls. assign points if this is helpful.
