Level One WBS Element as Acct Assignment Element

Dear Friend's
My user have created one project, In that there are various levels WBS Elements.
Normally we never tick Level One WBS Element as a Acct Assignment Element.But User have made Level One WBS Element as Acct Assg Element and then Project is Released.So now I can't remove that tick because that field is Grayed out or Freezed.
Now i wanted to Remove or Undo Release status and then I have to remove Acct Assg Element Tick.
Pls guide me on this issue.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sandeep N.Theurkar

Hello,
I had not seen this problem before. So i checked it in my system. But i didn't see this
happening for me.
I think once system status is in REL (released) status you cannot reverse it. According to me Acct.
assignment field become gray only when posting is made against that WBS and not after release.
Pls check it and inform.

Assign WBS AVAC not in the lowest level of WBS elements

Dear SAP Community,
Our client has requirement to have budget availability control in WBS element level 3 while the WBS structure is until level 5 and the actual posting will occurred in WBS element level 5.
Our current setting is to have WBS element level 5 as Planning Element and Account Assignment Element. So, user can upload their WBS planning data from the lowest level of WBS structure. Then we copy the Planning Data as Budget through CJ30 and release it through CJ32.
If we set the value of Budget Data in CJ30 and CJ32 until the level 5, the system check AVAC in WBS level 5 instead of the amount rolled up in WBS level 3. If we set the value of Budget Data in CJ30 and CJ32 in WBS level 3, the system will check AVAC in WBS level 3 (as we expected) but the consequence is comparison of actual vs budget in WBS level 5 will have variance 100%.
Is there any way to define the budget data until WBS level 5 but the AVAC control is in WBS level 3?
Appreciate your inputs
Thank you and best regards,
Fitria

We had similar kind of requirement, we had followed the above process. THis will provide the required functionality except the variance in reports. Try and convince the client to settle for this if this meets your requirements.
As AVAC can't be managed at WBS levels.

If cost has been posted onto the subject WBS then the account assignment element cannot be unchecked i.e. it remains greyed out. You wont be able to change it even via CNMASS. The only option left could be to cancel the transactions that led to the cost assignment (please note a reversal means another transaction that only reverses the effect but does not remove the line items altogether, therefore a reversal does not remove the AA indicator).
Also note that the cost can be both actual or statistical in nature. Even settlement from lower level WBS to higher level WBS leads to greying of the indicator.

Asset Master to be assigned to more than one WBS element

Hi Guys
I have a scenario in which a Asset should be assigned to more than one Project, i.e. WBS Element.
Is it possible by any way to assign a asset to more than one WBS element.
Warm Regards
Bala

Hi Vijay Kumar
Your right, but my situation is different.
Take an example, i have server in a software company, that will be used for more than one project. In this case the asset number is the same as the same asset is used for different project at a given point of time
Warm Regards

COPA - Multiple Sales Order with one wbs element. COPA does not reference

COPA - Multiple Sales Order with one wbs element. COPA does not reference of reference of sales order.
Hi All
Currently we are in process of implementation of project related to Club Service for one of the client.
Concept of this project is - there is "X" company engaged in supporting the different shared services for their client e.g. Client IBM - Shared Support Services of IBM is
u2022     IDM
u2022     Software Installation
u2022     Help Desk
u2022     Maintenance
Co.. "X' is performing these services for IBM.    So for Co. "X" - IBM is one engagement. Like this way Co. X is performing such activities for many companies e.g. microsoft, HP, ABN AMRO etc.
Objective - Get the consolidate report from COPA (Customer wise/services wise/sales order wise e.g. IBM/HelpDesk/10002/10).
We propose a solution to create a project for each engagement and with WBS element. Each WBS element of different services e.g.
Project IBM Inc. 100.100
WBS Element    100.100.IDM
WBS Element    100.100.SoftIns
WBS Element    100.100.HelpDesk
WBS Element    100.100.Maintainance
For this engagement (IBM), we are creating a sales order with line items (for services) and account assignment is WBS element. In a sales order, there may be two lines for one services.   In a particular period, there are many such sales orders for this engagement... Milestone billing/period billing is used depending upon the services rendered.
Now Cost Object will be WBS Element. So cost and revenue will posted to WBS and from this it goes to COPA. In a month of May 2009 two - sales order is booked with three different line items with account assignment is WBS element.
Sales Order Line Item No.....Item                  Account Assignment                      Revenue
10000          100     IDM      100.100.IDM              1000
10000          200     HELPDESK      100.100.HelpDesk              2000
10000          100     Maintenance      100.100.Maintainance         3000
Another Sales order booked with two different line items
10000          100      IDM     100.100.IDM          3000
10000          200      HELPDESK     100.100.HelpDesk          4000
Cost will be booked directly against WBS element.
In sales order level, there is no profitability segment, as cost object is WBS element.
Billing, revenue will be posted directly to wbs element, from this revenue and cost of sales goes to COPA.
Now in COPA,
1.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.IDM with revenue 4000 (combing both the sales order)
2.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.HelpDesk with revenue 6000 (combing both the sales order)
3.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.Maintainance with revenue 4000
In above case 1 & 2 we will not have reference of sales order and sales order line item in COPA table. There is only one line for this. So we can not have reporting to sales order level.
Is there any way by this the reference of sales order and sales order line will come in COPA for case 1 & 2.
Please help in this issue.

Hi,
For these case (multiple materials with different characteristics); have you consider going to next level of WBS Elements. Meaning; lets say currently you are assigning WBS "Engineering (which is a level 2 WBS)" to all the items in SO. Instead under "Engineering" create 2 or 3 level 3 WBS Elements as E1, E2 etc and assign them 1:1 to your sales order line items. This would eliminate the exit as welll as complex development option. And also will let you get all the data in COPA and in turn you can pull to BW as well for reporting. Just a thought.

Check on level of WBS element for capital purchase PO

Hi Experts,
We are facing a problem. While creating Capital purchase PO, all WBS elements are allowed. Although, system is configured in such a way that GRN can not be done for Level 1 WBS( Parent project). We want to introduce a check at PO creation level only, so that it should not take Level 1 WBS element. How can it be done( validation check can do here or not) .

How did you set up the derivation rule???
I think that is where you specify a level of expenditue or procurement.
Thanks

Statistical WBS Element - do we need to set as Account Assignment Element?

Hi,
I would like to know if I define the WBS element to be statistical (statistical ticked in Control tab) and would want to have posting. Do I need to set it as account assignment element? (I noticed system is not allowing me to post if I do not set it as account assignment element). I want to make sure the actual cost would be be posted to the WBS element as the WBS element should just be statistical in nature.
Please also confirm if I always need to specify actual cost center posted if the statistical field is ticked PRPS-KOSTL.
Thanks!

Yes, so the account assignment should always be ticked if I want to post actual to STATISTICAL WBS Element. Now I would like to confirm if I always need to specify actual cost center posted if the statistical field is ticked PRPS-KOSTL.
Also, I understand that if I run CJI3, for statistical Actuals posted, its value type will be 11 - Statistical Actual instead of 4 - Actual.
Thanks!

How to make mandatory(usr01) field for level 1 wbs elements only from CJ20N

Dear All,
I have made mandatory for "PRPS-USR01" field from CJ20N transaction
by using field exit. But mandatory field (usr01) is working for all wbs elements. I want to make this usr01 field mandatory for LEVEL 1(prps-stufe), WBS ELEMENTS(prps-posid) only. Not for level 2 and level 3 wbs elements. Please let me know how to fix it.
urgent.
Regards,
Karthik.

You could envisage the use of validation rules in PS.
Transaction OPSI or SPRO
Create a validation with a message ID (Z)
Create a step
- prerequisite : PRPS-STUFE = '001'
- Check : PRPS-USR01 <> ' '
affect a message number

What is the importance of word account in 'Account' assignment elements

Automatic 'account assignment derivation' minimizes the manual effort of entering postings in which the 'account assignment elements' can be entered. The values derived appear as default values that you can overwrite if you wish.
FM account assignment elements, Derivation of FM Account Assignment Elements from CO Acct Assgnmnts.
These are many place where word account assignment elements is used in sap.
what is the importance of word 'Account'. What should we understand if word 'account' assignment element wording is used in FM,CO or FI.

i have tried but no one answers specific question -- What is 'account assignment element'.
its used everywhere as if everyone understands it in every module.
for e.g
FM account assignment elements are not migrated to BCS. Nevertheless, they are crucial to proper migration, since budget data is assigned to these account assignment elements. You have the following options:
· If you do not want use new FM account assignment elements in BCS, you should proceed as follows:
Migration at fiscal year-end: no specific action is required. See link below.
Migration during the course of a fiscal year: you should carry out the activation of account assignments for BCS and optionally also define your budget structure.
· If you want to use new FM account assignment elements in BCS, such as the grant or funded program, proceed as follows:
Now if someone is new to SAP what would he understand with word - FM account assignment elements
Like in FI we have GL account and in FM we have Commitment item. Two different nomenclature. Why account assignment element is used freely as If everyone else understands it, I would love to understand that how to interpret word account assignment element differently if used in different module.

Assigning more than 1000 orders in one WBS

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement of assigning more than 1000 Orders to one WBS element. As per SAP note, a maximum of 1000 Orders can be asssigned to one WBS otherwise system performance may get affected. But as per the client requirement, either I should allow more than 1000 Orders or System should give an error message when the assignment crosses this limit... I checked for User exits (for Orders) and could not find any for this... any experience / suggestions ?
Thanks
Bala

Hi,
If more than 1000 orders has been assigned under one WBS then the system performance will get slow.Whenever you are retriving some data or reports for that WBS the system response will be slow.
If the client requirement is like that then you can create more than 1000 orders,
orelse you can break the WBS in SUb WBS & create many orders under different head.
You can cretae more than 1000 orders under one WBS.The system wont give any error message.

Is there a function that returns the Entry Value for the Assignment Element, based on the Assignment Number, Element Name, Entry Segment and the End of Period date?
Example:
==============
Input Parameters:
Employee: Iana
Assignment Num: 123
Element: D480

Thanks,
Iana

For element entry values you can use:
select petf.element_name, nvl(peevf.screen_entry_value,0) screen_entry_value
from
pay_element_entries_f peef, pay_element_types_f petf,
pay_element_entry_values_f peevf, pay_input_values_f pivf,
per_all_assignments_f paaf
where petf.element_type_id = peef.element_type_id
