Incorrect postings due to wrong Profit Center assigned to WBS

Dear Experts,
My client has created a project where a wrong profit center was assigned to a particular WBS. As a result of which while booking revenue end users picked up WBS based on name and while booking cost it was booked based on Profit Center, which was suppose to be linked to some other WBS.
eg. WBS 'A' was suppose to have PC1, while WBS 'B' was suppose to have PC2. But by mistake vice verse happened.
So in this case cost for WBS 'A' was booked against revenue of WBS B.
This is giving wrong picture while analyzing profitability.
Can you suggest some means by which we can correct this picture?
Thanks and Regards,
Manish

Manish,
There is only way of JV posting, you post a single JV for all the line items at a time with cumulative amounts against each WBS element, else you have to reverse all the transactions of the each WBSE and then change the profit center and post the transactions which a very hectic job.

Changes to Profit center assigned to cost center

Hi
We have a scnario in which the profit center assigned to the cost center master has to be changed. We have been advised also to change the validity period of the same from the date of change of the profit center .However, the cost center has been used to for some data postings with the old profit center maintained in the cost center master. Now my query is:
1. What is the impact of changing the profit center in cost center master? In our case, some data has been posted to the cost center when the old profit center was maintained.
2. Why should we change the validity period of the cost center after changing the profit center assigned to the cost center?
3. Also, what is the way to transfer the entries which have been posted to the old profit center to the new profit center?
Regards
Sanil Bhandari

hi,
1) The impact of profit center is more in the cost center. when ever we assign profit center to cost center. the cost will be updated automatically. so there is no direct posting in profit center only statstical posting are generated.
2) second one when we want to create profit center first chek it out profit center valid and upto. if same is not maintained in creation of cost center . so u must have to change the validity periods
3) i am not sure this one i thing 7KEH OR 1KEF TC is there any way tommorow i will give the answer this questions.
if my answers are wrong plz correct and replay to my id [email protected]
thank you

Hi,
What has already been posted in SAP has been posted. One alternative in front of you is to create adjustment postings in PCA to post to the correct Profit Center. You can use transaction code 1KEL or 9KE0 for the same but it may not work as most probably you will the GR/IR clearing account set to "Post automatically" in the GL Master. In such a scenario the only option would be to have customized program to create IDOCs with Message Type "PRCMAS" to post the adjustment postings in your system.

Materials management small differences - DIF - Profit Center assignment.

Hi,
We have created one G/L for posting the u201CMaterials management small differencesu201D at the time of generating MIRO document via transaction u201CDIFu201D in Tcode - OBYC.
For e.g. if the GR amount is 90 and IR (Invoice received from party) is of Rs. 91/- or vice-versa then for posting the difference of Rs. 1/- we have made the above assignment.
System is generating the line item for the u201CSmall Diff -Invoice Verificationu201D but posting automatically to a "Dummy Profit Center u201C in the absence of any other data.
Our point is that we want to change the profit center to the related Business area, which is there in the line item of u201CSmall Diff -Invoice Verificationu201D account.
We tried the FI substitution (Tcode u2013 GGB1/ OBBH) for the Profit Center derivation on the basis of Business Area but that is working with the FI documents (Manual FI entry) only and not with the automatic line generation like MIRO in the above case.
Later on I tried Tcode u2013 OKB9, but in that case after giving business area wise cost center substitution, system is correctly showing the entry (in simulation mode of MIRO transaction) in the required Cost Center & on that basis in the Profit Center, but still system requires u201CCO-Objectu201D
Initially we tried other way of creating a Cost Element under the category of u201C11 u2013 Revenueu201D to maintain Business Area u2013 Profit Center link but still in that case also it requires co-object hence turned to changing the Cost Element Category to u201C1 u2013 Primary Costu201D for capturing Profit center on the basis of Business Area u2013 Cost Center link since basically G/L u2013 u201Csmall Diff -Invoice Verificationu201D we have created under u201CExpense Groupu201D.
Our requirement is to post the entry in related profit center per Business Area in the line item of "Small Diff -Invoice Verification" since there are 6 to 7 business areas, which are active in system.

Shridhar

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. But I would like to correct you. I have mentioned in my subject line - "DIF" i.e the Transaction Key maintained in Transaction Code - OBYC for posting the small difference (Between GR and IR values) arriving at the time of MIRO transaction posting.
Now meanwhile I have come across u201CSAP Note : 32654u201D which mentioned that "Account assignment for the transaction (KDR, DIF, UPF) on the highest level i.e. the 1st screen where we set the Cost Center or Profit Center assignment to Cost Element with Acct Assignment details (1 or 2 or 3) is possible.
Same is not possible on details level means Acct Assignment details level per Valuation Area or Business Area for Cost Center or Profit Center linkage (2nd screen of OKB9).
Please do correct me if I am making any wrong statement.
Now would like to have an advise about the transaction Code - OKC9 with the scenario (MIRO document u2013 Dummy Profit center linkage) that I have mentioned above.
Do I require to maintain OKB9 (At highest level) and then need to work out CO- Substitution via OKC9 ? Or OKC9 is enough to cover my scenario ?
Do any body have a knowledge about that? Points will be assigned.
Regards,
Shridhar

Purchase Order - Wrong profit center

Hi ,
We have a PO which is linked to a Sales order.
In the GR document, the material document, we have a Profit center called " XYZ " for this material.
But we found out that there is a different Profit center " ABC " that is coming in the Invoice document for the same PO for the same line item.
The business thinks that this is wrong and the Invoice document should have the same profit center assignment as that is assigned in the Sales order / GR document.
What is the reason the system is picking up a different Profit center for the Material document and a different Profit center for the invoice document.
Can we configure this in the system ?
And if it is defaulted from the Material Master, why is it that the system is taking two different profit centers for the same material...
Thanks,
srikanth

Hi,
Talk to your business team, what is real requirement now and also consult with FI/CO team
As payment done, you can go for creating a Return PO and then do GR with 161 movement type( if excise,do J1IS for to reverse excise and then print with J1IV) and finally go for credit memo in MIRO.
OR
Considering payment done to vendor as wrongly/ by mistake,so 1st check accounting document number for which vendor (with account number) in t.code:FBL1N & then reverse it with t.code: F-02 and finally clear it with t.code: F-44.Reverse all GR and MIRO document.

Subcontract PO - profit center assignment

Hi,
Does anyone know how to check on profit center assignment for a subcontract PO ?
We're currently have the FI posting on the Goods Receipt but it is assigned to the wrong profit center.

Hi,
Check OKB9 Settings as well as FAGL3KEH settings in the system to identify cost centers and profit centers attached to cost elements, GL Accounts.

Wrong profit center posted for a customer invoice

Dear All
I have posted customer invoice with wrong profit center, is there any way to reverse the same other than FB08 as I used the transaction 9KE0 but it doesn't support customer and vendor account.
I want to correct the same through profit center only.( i.e. reducing the balance of wrong profit center and
increasing the balance of correct profit center )
Thanks in advance.
Viru.

Hello,
Even if you posted a customer invoice only Control Account totals will be moved to PCA.
Hence, see the control account for the customer masteer assigned and adjust the account accordingly by posting the entry through 9KE0.

Billing document pulling wrong profit center

Having a problem getting sales revenue posted to the correct profit center. Order is created and pulls the correct profit center (1010) from the material master. When sales document is created, it is putting it to sales revenue account but with wrong profit center (2010).
Using one sales revenue account, 410000, cost center 1602 linked to profit center 2010000
Getting confused as to why my sales when posted to 410000 revenue account I don't get the correct profit center ?
Any help or suggestions for configuration - just using my sandbox.

Hi,
Profit center is determined from material master for sales orders, direct assignment of accounts to profit centers, derivation rule in PCA, or via user exit (if some custom logic is inbuild in the system). Check your PCA configuration in section PC assignment to object & accounts.

What is the best way to achieve this?any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Ajay,
Thanks for your reply.profit center changes are working with analysis period changes.
i have one more issue here,i can't change hierarchy in cost center and getting errors..
Message no. KS042
Diagnosis
Field Hierarchy Area to be changed must be unique for the entire interval. You selected a change interval which does not include the entire period. Any change in the field would result in an inconsistency.
I have try to change time depended field in configuration.system is not allowing for field "KHINR" in OKEG TC.
any help is appreciated...
Thanks,

Wrong profit center to correct profit center

Hi friends Please suggest how we correct/transfer the transactions from wrong profit center to correct profit center.

Hi
There is one concept called profit centre document. By using the same, you can transfer amount from one profit centre to another profit centre. You can also use the General Ledger also. The transaction code for the same is 9KE0.
Assign points without fail.
Regards.

Hi,
Are you using NEW GL or EC-PCA? If New GL, you can do manual adjustment (FI entry). If EC-PCA, you can do it using 9KE0.
