Locked Profit Centre

Hi all
We re on ECC5 and have activated scenario FIN_PCA as well as document splitting for Customers and Vendors based on Profit Centre . We are constantly having difficulty when a Profit Centre has been locked to prevent further revenue being posted. The issue is that Payment Runs, FX Valuation program (anything that refers to Open Items) etc all attempt to post values to PC based on the original item but the PC is now locked.
At the moment we unlock the PC, post the transaction and then lock it again. Is there a more intelligent way around this? Locking PCs is an ongoing function.
Is there a way to transfer the PC balance for an open item?
Thanks
Gidon

the joys of document splitting.
If you want a fully balance sheet per PC you will get these issues when you lock a PC.
Why are the PC's being locked?
could you create a rule that only allowed the PC to be posted to via certain t codes and not the create AR open items ones?

  • Lock the profit centre change via CJ20N and CNMASS tcodes

    Hi Friends,
    I have a requirement where in user should not be allowed to change the profit centre of Project Definition and WBS via tcode CJ20N and change the profit centre of Project Definition, WBS, Netowok and Activity via tcode CNMASS.
    I could achieve the profit centre lock for PD, WBS and Network by Implementing BADIs PROJECTDEF_UPDATE, WORKBREAKDOWN_UPDATE and WORKORDER_UPDATE.. The implemented BADI 'WORKORDER_UPDATE 'is reachable while changing profit centre of Activiy as well. But the details of the changes of activity is not visibile inside BADI.
    If anybody has any input for this, it would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Thanks Martin,
    Small scenario here..I have created a Validation and In prerequisite of Step001, I have kept a condition Transaction Code = CNMASS. Structure AFVGD is visible.
    I have created an Exit PLOCK, but when I keep a Break Point in the ABAP Routine of PLOCK(Both soft and hard Break Points), the Control doesnt stop in those break points when I run the transaction CNMASS.
    I think some understanding in the concept is missing in my part. Please suggest to help me fill this gap.

  • Profit centre - block for posting and put as inactive status

    Hi Guru,
    I want to block a profit centre from being posted to AND put the status as inactive.
    I checked on the Lock indicator and the profit centre automatically becomes inactive.  However, I can still post to the PC.
    I noticed that if the PC has an "Active" status and the lock indicator on,  then I cannot post to the PC. 
    What have I missed?  Do I need to make the setting in a special sequence??
    Linda

    Hi,
    Here is the step-by-step:
    1.Go to T-code KE52 and call up your profit center
    2. Go to the Indicators tab and put a check in the Lock indicator
    3. Save:
    Note that this will save your changes in an Inactive Status. You may be thinking that is a good thing and that youu2019re doneu2026I was.  But youu2019re not.  If you go to FB50 or 9KE0 and try to post to that profit center, it will let you post away all day long.  One more step.
    Click the Match stick button to Activate your new state:
    Do not mess with the Validity periods unless youu2019ve got a good reason to.  The real key here is setting the Lock indicator and making sure that is Active.  Think of it as Actively locking your profit center.
    Thank you

  • Business Area & Profit Centre

    < MODERATOR:  Message locked.  Please post this message in the [Controlling forum|SAP ERP Financials - Controlling;. >
    Hi,
    What is the difference between Business Area & Profit Centre.
    how alternative profit centre is from business are.
    any documentation available.
    Regards,
    Shekar.

    Business area:An organizational unit in external accounting, which corresponds to a separate operational or responsibility area in the organization, and value flows recorded in Financial Accounting can be assigned to it.
    The business area should be treated as a separate economic unit, for which you can create an internal balance sheet and a profit and loss statement. The business area is, however, only an internal organizational unit and does not have any external impact.
    You define business areas if you wish to create a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement for internal areas, in addition to company codes.
    Profit Center:
    A profit center is an organizational unit in accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
    you can use your profit centers as investment centers.
    Profit center Accounting at the profit center level is based on costs and revenues.  These are assigned statistically by multiple parallel updating to all logistical activities and other allocations of relevance for a profit center.

  • Blocking of profit centre for further posing

    Hi guru
    We have to block few profit centres during this year for further posting.first we changed the validity period of that profit centre & also locked that &also itis in inactive state.Even then when we do posting with TC-F-02  the profit centre is getting defaulted with the cost centre & posted with a FI document.The doc. date & posting date is after the validity date of the profit centre.Now how to proceed.
    Thanks
    Shivaji

    Hi,
    The profit centre will continue to come as a default in spite of its deactivation. These events are not connected. If you want to stop the default of this profit centre, you have to change all your assignments in cost centres, assets, OKB9, 3KEH, substitutions, etc.

  • Dummy Profit Centre

    < MODERATOR:  Message locked.  Please post this message in the [Controlling forum|SAP ERP Financials - Controlling;. >
    Hi Gurus
    Any one explain me what is the use of Dummy Profit center ..
    Why should we create a dummy profit centre....
    Explain me in detail with example if possible.
    Thanks in advance
    Varma

    Hi,
    The dummy profit center is updated in data transfers whenever the object to which the data was originally posted (cost center, order, and so on) is not assigned to a profit center. This ensures that the data in Profit Center Accounting is complete. You can later send the data on the dummy profit center to the other profit centers using assessment or distribution.

  • Deletion of Profit Centre

    Isn't it possible to delete a profit centre ?  While I am trying to delete a profit centre (after removing the segment also), system is saying that "profit centre scenarion is active" (or) " the facility is not available to the profit centre object".  I have not posted any data to the Profit Centre which is to be deleted.

    Hi,
    If you are activated profit center accounting in FI, we can't delete the profit center, Because profit center accounting is used as scenrio update in New GL.
    but the we can lock the profit center for postings in the master data.

  • Profit Centre Document issue at the time of Post Goods Issue on SD.

    Dear Experts,
    While SD person is posting Post Goods Issue, System is generating Profit Centre Document along with other documents. We are facing an issue with Profit Centre document here and the issue is:
    Some Profit Centre Documents are populating Delivery Order Number on respective field while some are not. Ideally all profit centre line items should show Delivery Order Numbers.
    Please guide any solution to resolve this issue, its urgent.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Zain Bashir

    Hi Zain
    This is a tricky issue
    Are you saying that the PCA document has the Delivery Number (VL01N) updated in some cases and not updated in some cases?
    The Delivery Number is updated in PCA document when you create Delivery from VL01N and do PGI from VL02N
    But, if you do PGI from VL01N itself, then the delivery number is not updated in the PCA document
    SAP recommends to post PGI from VL02N

  • Vendor Open Item Transaction FBL1N and Profit Centre Display

    When I run transaction FBL1N for vendors and include profit centre in the layout, the profit centre column is included but is not populated with and values for any line item. However when I run a report in FAGLL03 the line items dispolay a profit centre.
    How do I get the profit centre to report in my FBL1N output?
    The Program running FBL1N is RFITEMAP.
    Warm regards
    Victor

    I have done that. The column appears but it is not populated with any profit centre for line items, although the items belong to profit centres.

  • Stock balances by Profit centre-New GL

    Hi,
    Is there any standard FI report by which I can get the stock/material/inventory balances by profit centre and segment. We are in ECC 6.0 with new GL activated.
    If there is no standard report, can this be acheived by using a ABAP query by table join.If yes, please let me know the tables to consider.
    Thanks
    Aravind

    Try the report S_E38_98000088 - Profit Center Group: Plan/Actual/Variance for your inventory accounts. This will give you stock values by profit center. Leave the profit center value blank in the selection criterial. Run MB5L for stock values by inventory account and then double click the account to get the stock values by material.
    FAGL_FLEXT, MBEW and MARC can be joined to get the values.

  • Profit centre at storage location level

    Hi Experts,
    Can we define a profit centre @ storage location level?
    My scenario :
    The document splitting of FI is activated for the document type of FI and also the profit centre is mandatory entry for any accounting document that will be created so when I am trying to post a MIGO I encounter the error
    "Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled"
    We have a option of maintaining a profit centre in plant data/storage location but i will be updated in the profit centre field of Costing1 view . But we does not want to upadate in costing view of material master data.
    Basically We want the system to determine profit centre based on storage location  in Goods reciept transaction .
    Helpful Sugestions on this would be helpful & rewarded max .
    points.

    Hi Raju ,
    Thanx for the reply.I am Basavarajs Collougues.
    Our Enterprise Structure of our Client is as follows
    One company code is assigned to one plant and we have treated all the branches across India as Storage locations.Each  Branch (Storage Location- MM) is configured as Profit centres in FICO.The goods are procured for a storage location.
    By using the functionality of document splitting, the profit center field is made mandatory for all the accounting documents generated in the system. Now we are trying to post a goods receipt against a Purchase Order, the system is giving error "Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled"
    The option is there to maintain a profit center at the plant level.But we have several storage locations under the plant and each storage location has to be linked with the particular profit center. So that, while doing goods receipt the system should determine profit centre based on the storage location in purchase orders.
    Please suggest on this.
    Regards,

    Due to this we could not able to take the vendor or customer line item in the t code FBL1n / 3n. is there config setting missig or else system is behavior correct.
    if sytem is behaving correct in this case how to take the vendor or customer line item with respective profit centre wise.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Sahil. K

    First of all go to SE37 and copy the function module SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00001650 and make a Z one out of it .
    Then code your requirement playing aorund with the structure RFPOS .
    Then Go to FIBF - Settings - Products - Of a customer . Here make a new entry with a Z one of yours as per your convinience .
    Again go to settings - P/S modules - Of customer - Entere here the BTE 1650 and the product that you have created and enter the fucntion module name that you have made the codings in .
    Save the entries .
    Also , in the FM you can keep a break point and check what is the effect that is coming out in the Structure RFPOS after the FM is executed .
    May take the help of an ABAPER for the same .

  • Profit centre-wise Vendor/Customer outstanding

    I am working in ECC6. Profit Centre and Segments are activated.
    While I am posting a vendor invoice, I assign the profit centre in the expenses account and the vendor is also posted to that profit centre while posting.
    Now my requirement is to view the profit centre-wise vendor outstandings. I tried to execute the Open item report per profit centre (S_ALR_ 87013343 & S_ALR_87013344). However, I am unable to see any output figure. The list is coming as zero. System shows a message "Report 8A4-0012 does not contain any data pages".
    Is there any other report or what is wrong with the above report ?
    Regards

    The profit centers are not posted directly in PCA.
    The Vendor/Customer reconsilatin accounts should NOT be 3KEH
    Have you run:
    F.5D - Calculate
    F.5E - Post
    F.5F - Display Log
    or
    1KEK - Transferring Payables/Receivables
