HR PNP Logical Database Using Cost Center selection: error!?

Hi all,
I'm using PNP logical data base and using the selection-fields available through HR Class Reports (a copy of PAY_DEF) but what happens is if in selection-screen I fill the personnel number say 1000, i get the payroll data I'm trying to get, but if i use the search field cost center of that exact person i get nothing. Does anyone has a clue on what i might be doing wrong? Because all the other search fields work, company code, HR area, everyone, but cost center, and I'm positive that i use the right cost center.
Thanks in advance,
Paula

Even though nobody answered me, i finally found the solution for my problem. so and because someone might need it here it is:
Go to Spro->Personnel Management->Human Resources Information System->Reporting->Adjusting the Standard Selection Screen and then:
1st Create Report Categories and
2nd Assign Report Categories
Since not all rep. categories on the 1st assignment is explicit on how will sel screen appear i advice you to go to the 2nd point, and execute some of the programs that appear there, and that might look alike to what you are looking for, and if you are so lucky as to find one exact use the same report category in your program, if its very alike, well, copy the Report Category into one of your own and change it the way you need it to be.
Hope this be helpfull for someone.
Paula.

    2. Click "Change"
    3. Click 'HR Report Category'
    4. Click 'Create Report Category'
    5. Click 'new entries' for careating Report Category
    5. Select newly create report category
    6. Click the folder 'Definition of Organizational Selection'.
    7. Click 'New entries'.
    8. Here you assign the required fields to be displayed, for eg pywerks - personal area.

  • Using PNP logical database in report

    Hi i'm using the PNP logical database in my report, and i want to hide all fields in the 'Period' frame.
    is there any way to do it automatically or is it necessary to hide them one by one??
    Thanks in advance.

    If you can put them all in the same screen group, you may be able to do this. But you might run into problems when you re-generate.

  • Issue with 900 screen of PNP logical database.

    Hi Experts,
    I am using 900 screen in PNP logical database and assigned the default report catagory.
    But in the selection screen when I click on further selection and select any of the parameter like company code/cost center, nothing comes in to the screen.
    Request to let me know any issue there?
    Br/Manas

    hi
    After selecting the fields from further options are you first adding them and then saying ok or just saying ok. Please check and let me know.
    If you add and then say ok these fields appear on the screen,

  • Line item in PNP logical database

    Hi All,
    Can anyone tell me, what is the selection logic for PNP Logical database, suppose in one report we use PNP Logical database,
    So when we put some date range, so in the output of report there are 2 fields, so during that date range 1 field occurs two time and other field 4 times, so how many line items would be displayed by that report.
    Regards,

  • Standard screen for PNP logical database

    hello All,
    I am using PNP logical database and i have modified the standard selection screen for PNP.
    But now there is a button that appears , although the rest is supressed as i wanted it to.
    Our forums active contrubutor suresh datti has provided me a solution before to go to sytem then status and then click screen 100 then invisible the push button and activate and re-execute the program. The method seems to work fine. But surprisingly after some time the button appears again..
    any idea..??
    thanks,
    Reena..

    >>>I do not knw how to create a variant or how variant are related to selection screens..can u please elaborate..

  • Is Logical Database used in ABAP?????

    Hi All,
    I m very confused whether LDB's are used in ABAP or not.
    i have undergone a small training in ABAP-HR (HCM).
    In that training i was told that there is an advantage in HCM that LDB's are used here
    which were not used in ABAP.
    And i have read somewhere that LDB's are used in ABAP.
    can plz sumone give a light on this.
    Thanks,
    Sonali

    hi,
    The use of a logical database provides you with an alternative to having to program database accesses individually. Logical databases retrieve data records and make them available to ABAP programs.
    The same logical database can be the data source for several Quick Views, queries, and programs. In the Quick View, the LDB can be specified directly as a data source. A query works with the logical database when the functional area that generated the query is defined with a logical database. In the case of type 1 programs, the LDB is entered in the attributes or called using function module LDB_PROCESS. See appendix for information on how to use the function module.
    Logical databases offer several advantages:
    The system generates a selection screen. The use of selection screen versions or variants provides the required flexibility.
    The user does not have to know the exact structure of the tables involved (especially the foreign key dependencies); the data is made available in the correct order at GET events.
    Performance improvements within logical databases directly affect all programs linked to the logical database, without having to change the programs themselves.
    Maintenance can be performed at a central location.
    Authorization checks can also be performed centrally.
    A logical database is an ABAP program that reads predefined data from the database and makes it available to other programs.
    A hierarchical structure determines the order in which the data is supplied to the programs. A logical database also provides a selection screen that checks user entries and conducts error dialogs. These can be extended in programs.
    SAP provides some 200 logical databases in Release 4.6. The names of logical databases have been extended to 20 places in Release 4.0 (namespace prefix max. 10 characters).
    In the case of executable programs, you can enter a logical database in the attributes.
    Use the NODES statement to specify the nodes of the logical database that You want to use in the program. NODES allocates the appropriate storage space for the node - that is, a work area or a table area depending on the node type.
    The logical database makes the data records available for the corresponding GET events.
    The sequence in which these events are processed is determined by the structure of the logical database.
    Logical databases are made up of several sub-objects. The structure determines the hierarchy, and thus the read sequence of the data records.

  • TABLES statement in pnp logical database

    But my program is logically correct and also working.

  • Query: PNP Logical Database Screen

    Hi,
    My requirement is to default some values in the SORT ORDER button of the PNP screen.
    I can do that by creating a variant and attaching it to the Tcode, but is there any other way to do it.
    Also, I need to add couple of new values to that list.
    Please suggest how to achieve it.
    Helpful replies will be rewarded.
    Regards,
    Amit

    Amit,
    you need to use Report categories as a solution to the issues mentioned in your mail.
    You can access report category by going to attributes of your HR report which is using PNP logical database.
    You will find a button in 'Attributes' dialog screen for HR Report Categories which will enable you to add new fields, default the values etc.
    Reward points , if helpful.

  • Assigning overheads to Cost collector using cost center assessments

    Dear All,
    I want to assign admin and selling overheads to product cost collectors for different products using cost center assessment.
    I am creating the cycle for assessment and in the receiver objects i am not able to get product cost collectors. In the order field, i am able to see only the internal orders but not the product cost collectors(or the PCC number).
    Could anyone please tell me how to assign product cost collector in the receiver objects in the assessment cycle.My senders are cost centers(admin and sales).
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Regards,
    Vishnu
    VST-IT.
    Please... somebody answer my query.

    Thank you for replying.
    If you go to order field and select the order type RM01. Here we can see the order numbers for product cost collectors. We can assign this cost collector number in the distribution cycle as receiver. after we post, when we go to the cost collector in kkf6n, we can see the amount posted through distribution in the costs of the cost collector.
    My question is why the same functionality is not possible using assessment.

  • Can we create the Purchase order that using P&L account or just using account do not use cost center.

    Dear Experts,
    Could you please advise :
    1) Can we create the purchase order that using profit and loss account ? ( if yes , which kind of account assignment category we should use ?)

    Thanks & Best Regards,

    Hi,
       May I know why you do not use cost center for consumption?
       You may create a new account assignment category in OME9 by copying K and maintain the cost center as optional. Please note that you have to maintain the item category blank and the account assignment category combination in OMG0. Now, you can use a GL account in PO which doesnt require a cost center assignment (in OBC4 against the field status group of the GL)
       You may use the same account assignment category created in the previous step with item category D, after you maintain the combination of the account assignment with item category D in OMG0.
        Please test the scenario and revert back.
    Regards,
