Deleted cost centre master data log

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a way/report to see which cost centre master data was deleted, i.e. something like a log file?
I found a report that can show change documents, but it does not include deleted cost centres.
Thanks in advance!

Company code field in cost center master data

I am trying to create some cost centers, but noticed that the company code field is not available for entry in the cost center master data. In other words, the company code field does not appear or is hidden. My understanding is that an entry in company code field in cost center master data is mandatory. Can someone advice as to what setting is missing?

Hi MG,
Appearance of the field "Company Code" in cost center master data depends on the following point...
In Controlling Area settings in OKKP, if you have opted for single company code, then, whatever the cost center you create under this controlling area is obviously belongs to that company code only. So, system will not display the filed "Company Code" in cost center master data.
If you have opted for cross-company code controlling in OKKP settings, then, when you create a cost center in that controlling area, then the system will give the field "Company Code" in cost center master data so that in which company code you need to create the cost center.
I hope u got it...

How to make 0datefrom a compounding key to master data having single key ?

Dear Experts,
I am trying to add 0DateFrom to compound a master data object via RSD1.
In the Compounding tab, i keyed in the 0DateFrom and tried to activate but system does not allow :
Message :
Characteristic ZCONxxx: InfoObject 0DATEFROM is not allowed in the compound
Message no. R7596
Diagnosis
InfoObjects 0DATETO 'Valid to' and 0DATEFROM 'Valid from' are not allowed in the compound.
System Response
Characteristic ZCONxxx can not be activated.
Procedure
Define attributes or the texts for the characteristic as time-dependent. The fields 'Valid from' and 'Valid to' will then be automatically included in the master data tables or text tables.
I then followed the advise on from the message and ticked the DateFrom attribute in the master data. This attribute is existing one. But the system says :
Characteristic ZCONxxx: Attribute 0DATETO cannot be used w. time-dependent attribte
Please advise. I must compound the master data with datefrom. How can it be done when BI disallows?
Thanks in advance.
regards
Pascal

Hi
In SAP standard reminders are triggered based on requirement type 103 (dunning). Instandard it is assigned to output type MAHN. You can create a new requirement by modifying requirement 103 which considers confirmation entered in PO. Then it can be assigned to the reminder output type in output schema.

Suppress business area field in cost center master data(KS01)

Hi
As the client is not using business area, he don't want the business area field to appear in the cost center creation screen(KS01).
Is there any work around to this
Regards
Aravind

Hi Aitipamula,
Have you looked transaction code <b>OB65</b> to deactive the business area?
Also you can technically use transaction variant (t/code SHD0) to supress the field. For more information, please check this link.

Company Code field now shown in Cost Center Master Data

Hi
I am new, I configured CCA. Created Controlling area and versions. When I created a cost center company code field not shown. I think one cost center assined to a one company code but in cost center master data Company code field not shown. I want to cost center company code specific. I using ECC6
Pl help.

Hi,
When you will assign additional company codes, the cost centre created now, by default will be assigned to the existing company code, and for the new one - you will have to define cost centres again. So, everything is fine, do not worry.

How to make the Profit Center Field Mandatory in Cost center Master Data

Dear All,
Please let me know how to make the Profit Center Field mandatory in Cost Center Master Data as well as my Internal Order Master Data?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Rajeswari Shankar.

Hi Rajeswari,
You can modify message number KS096 to "Error" via OBA5. Thus, the users would no be able to save a cost center without entering a profit center. (Depending on your release you can make KS096 modifiable by implementing note 486781.)
Concerning the internal orders (transaction KO01), you can run KOT2 and set Profit center field as required entry in "change field selection" section.

Greta

How to find out Plant wise Cost centre/ Profit Centre

Hi Guru
My problem is How to find out plant wise cost centre. To be more clear------ I want to know what cost centre is valid for a particular plant
My mail Id. [email protected]

Hi,
Then this explains the problem.
The message number starts with a Z and so it is not a standard SAP message because SAP does not link cost centres or GLs to Plants
But also, the message doesn't indicate a problem with the link? it is stating that you should check that the GL account and the PROFIT CENTRE are valid for the posting for the period???.
It looks like someone has written a custom modification in your system and so we are , unfortunately, unable to help because the data would be in custom tables and not standard SAP tables.
You can only solve this problem by speaking to someone within your own company who knows the mdofication that has been done.
Sorry

Change the profit centre in the cost centre master after a year

Hi All,
Could you'll please let me know whether it was possible to change the profit centre in the cost centre master and if i did what will be the implications.
Thanks and Regards,

Refer transaction code OKEG.
You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity
types, and business processes with time dependencies. You can make
changes at any time for any given time interval. Data storage also takes
place with a time reference. In this way, a master data record can have
multiple database records storing different information.
The smallest interval is one day. To ensure data consistency, you cannot
change each field daily. The timeframes in which you can change a field
depend on the field functions, which are fixed by the system and cannot
be changed. Master data maintenance includes an automatic check for each
field's time-based consistency, resulting in individual time-based
maintenance for each field.
The following dependencies are supported:
o   Not time-based
o   Day-based
o   Period-based
o   (Fiscal) year-based
This function provides an overview of the time dependencies of
individual master data fields during master data maintenance, along with
checks and storage of consistency timeframes. You find this information
in the "Time dependency" column.
If you use fields requiring characteristics greater than one day and
which are changed for the system lifetime of the object, the system
automatically creates a new database record for this processing
interval, and changes the time-based validity of existing records. The
change is logged in the master data record with the time reference.
However, a great number of changes in multiple timeframes will result in
a correspondingly great number of data records.
Fields which you can change freely (indicated in the DAY column) can
possess different time dependencies only if you mark them additionally
as historically relevant. This activates the time-based updating for the
records.
Object 1000 has one master data record created with a fiscal year of 12
periods and the cost center name AAAAAAAAAA. During master data
maintenance, you change the cost center name in period 5 to BBBBBBBBBB.
The system reacts with one of two options.
o   "Name" is marked as historically relevant. The existing master data
     record for periods 1 - 12 must now become three records:
     1000   01-04   AAAAAAAAAA
     1000   05      BBBBBBBBBB
     1000   06-12   AAAAAAAAAA
o   "Name" is not marked as historically relevant. The existing master
     data record remains intact, with the name changed for the entire
     existence of the record:
     1000   01-12   BBBBBBBBBB

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.

Chirag
