Mandatory profit center in mm02 for plant

what customizing thread contains config for making a profit center MARC-PRCTR a mandatory field in mm02 for a specific plant?

You can make the Profit Center a mandatory field in the configuration menu of the Material Master, in the field selection. You do this by assigning it to its own field selection group and making this mandatory in the field selection.
Transaction OMSR.
MARC-PRCTR is the field name in full. Click on Field Selection icon (Green rectangle, yellow arrow), you will find various transaction including MM01 and MM02 within. Mark the radio button under the required for these transactions.

  • Profit center not updating with plant change

    We have an issue with the profit center not updating with change in delivering plant.
    A CSR entered a material on a sales order but the material is not extended to their location.  They select a plant to deliver the material from.  At this point the profit center fills in for that plant, from the material master. 
    The issue then is the material is not currently available at that plant so when the availability check is preformed the CSR checks for availability in another plant.  They are able to find an available item at another location so they select that location. 
    When they save the sales order the plant reflects the new delivering plant, but the profit center still reflects the first selected plant.  The profit center does not pull from the material master correctly.
    Has anyone seen this issue before and developed a solution?

    Hello Matthew
    May be you have substitution defined in CO.
    T codes 0KEM or 0KEL
    See the following OSS notes:
    167912 - Substitution call-up points for sales order/billing document
    Hope this helps.

  • Error : profit center is locked for controlling area

    Hi Experts
    profit center is locked for controlling area. Like this error is comning while doing MIRO, excise invoice. Please let me know the solution. Profit center mentioned in material master is different.

    Dear,
    This profit center is locked in its master under Indicators tab. Use transaction KE52 to unlock it if you want.
    Your concern to Profit Center being picked up is different then Material Master then use transaction OBBH and notice the substitution assigned to your compay code for call up point 2. Then use transaction GGB1 and check any profit center derivation is done.

  • How to mix default profit center and mandatory profit center ?

    Dear all,
    I have defined that the profit center is mandatory for all accounts (with the field status group).
    For some accounts, I have defined a default profit center in spro.
    When I do a posting for those accounts, and I don't key in a value for profit center, I receive the error message "An entry is required in Profit center field for account xxxx". But, the account has a default profit center defined in spro.
    Why the default profit center is not taken in consideration before to display the error message ?
    Is there any solution ?
    Thanks for your help

    When the field status group for an account mandates a field, it has to be filled in ENTRY view, i.e. when you are entering the document.  System would not let you go further until the field is filled with a valid value.  Default profit center configuration gets triggerred subsequently (just before the posting).
    Solution: For account for which you have default profit center configuration, change the field status group so profit center is optional.

  • Profit Center not updated for mov type 511

    When we are doing the goods receipt through transaction MIGO with mov
    type 511 (Receipt of delivery without charge) as 2nd line item along with
    mov. Type 101 as first line item, profit center document is not getting
    updated for 2nd line item (GLPCA-MSL), but for 1st line item (mov type
    101) profit center getting updated.
    If we are doing the GR with movement type 511 alone, profit center
    (GLPCA-MSL) updated correctly.

    hi,
    As per your error i might understand.
    please check for second line item Item okay is marked or not.
    if its 511 then please check whether Pricing control in MA-master whether its a Moving average or Standard price.
    as you said for singular 511 profit center gettng updated then you can very well compare to GR's.

  • Profit center accounting   activation for  3KEH  to  work

    Hi
    I  have   document splitting  activated, where I  have  sent  the constant  as  PC -  Dummy.
    Now in  3KEH - GL acct    interval    for  PC ,  I  have  defined  B/s account   and also  defined  different PC  for the same.
    But  when  I   have  transaction   using the  GL  in  3KEH,  it  takes   the    DUMMY  PC  and  not  the one  defined in  3KEH.
    So  I    unticked  the  standard  assignment in  Document spliting  and  in  which  case  , there is  NO  profit center  picked.
    Pl  advise  whether   I  have to  activate  PC Accounting in  controlling, so  that   3KEH  works.
    Thanks
    kamala

    HI
    Even  though  I  activate  PCA,  the  system   uses the setting defined in   'activate  docu splitting'  ie  the  constant.
    There  must be   some logic   on  when  the     assignment  of  GL  acct    to  PC based on derivation rule    in  3KEH  will   apply.  Does it  apply only to  FI  transactions,  or   even to  the  FI  docu  generated  from  other  modules.    From  the testing in F-02 or  FB60,   I  do not see    the  3KEH  setting  being  used.   System   reads   the   one in   'activate docu splitting'.
    Thanks   for  any  input on the above.

  • Profit Center-wise authorization for posting period

    Hi
    I have two profit centers - 1000 and 2000 under company code A001. Now management requires that posting in different must be restricted separately. For ex: Profit center 1000 needs more time for closing. Hence Profit Center 2000 must be closed in OB52 even though Profit center 1000 is opened.
    Posting period variant assigned to company code: A001 is 1100.
    Now in OB52, i gave
    Variant:1100
    Account type: +
    GL Accounts: 1000000 (from account) 99999999 (to account)
    From period 1/2011 to 2/2011
    Authorization group: 1000
    But how to link (add / remove) user id to that authorization group. Please help

    Hello,
    I'm using new GL and i've activated the Profit Center cenarios. However, the profit centers filled at the GL items aren't transferred for the FAGLFLEXA / FAGLFLEXT tables.
    Do you know why isn't the FAGLFLEXA / FAGLFLEXT  filled?
    Additionally i'm using the transaction F.5D and 1KEK to transfer information at the GL items for the GLPCA / GLPCT tables. Why aren't this information transferred online?

  • Profit Center not updating for WBS Element

    Hello Gurus,
    We have a scenario in which we have level 1 WBS element to which their is no cost and revenue. Now we have level 2 WBS element which is billing element to which we are posted some actula cost and revenue. Below this we are creating level 3 , 4 WBS elements and posting some actual cost to it  (not billing elements).
    So we are running RA and Settlement for this billing WBS.
    Now if over project is over so we are assigning TECO to this Level 2 billing WBS. When we are running POC then it is 100 %. But when we are running settlement then it is showing error as Maintain Settlement Rule for XXX WBS element (level3 , level 4)
    As we are not maintaining any settlement rule for level 3 , level 4. We are only assigning settlement rule for Level 2 (billing) to PSG.
    So how to solve this issue ?
    Regards
    Keshav

    Hi,
    The answer is there in your query itself. You say that you are booking some actual costs on the WBS elements on level 3. Since you are incurring costs on these WBS elements these costs need to be settled to some receiver. Either the WBS on level 2, which is a billing element or to some PSG. Since there is no settlement rule defined for these WBS elements at level 3 system is throwing this error.
    Maintain a proper settlement rule for the WBS elements in question and then run the settlement. It should work.

    Gokul

  • Error with Business area and profit center

    Hello Guru's,
    I have an issue when posting the stock through t-code MB1C and 521 movement type. We have assigned business area and profit centers for plants as below:
    For Plant 1000,
    Business Area:       1100
    Profit center:           1100
    And For Plant 2000,
    Business Area:        1200
    Profit center:             1200
    But when I am assigning plant 2000, and assigning business area and profit center as 1200 respectively. System by default is picking as 1100 with a warning message.
    Please help this resolving this issue, I want the system to take the correct assigned BA and Profit center.
    Regards,
    Varun Siddharth

    Hi Varun,
    One of the possible ways is, to assign a business area to the cobination of Plant and Division in OMJ7 (Assignment is possible for other combinations as well). Later you can define a substitution rule so that, a profit center is substituted to the combination of Plant and Business Area.
    Hope it helps you.

  • Cost Center / Profit Center -- Validation for Plant Address Change

    Hi There - One of our team [PTP] have a updated St'Adress for a Plant. From FI, is there something needs to be validated? and How do i find cost center/profit center related to that plant. I belive there is no assignment of those to plants?
    Thanks
    Sri

    no, the "accounting" object that can be related to the plant is the valuation area, but it is updated automatically.

  • Profit Center design by plant wise

    Hi Experts,
    My client is having central procurement unit and having 8 branches(warehouses) and they transfer the goods from head office to branch later on for their sale.And the legal requirement here is that cost is same across all warehouses and we adopted each branch as profit center for reporting.
    My question is
    1.How can I meet my requirement of cost is same as above at each storage location if I treated each one as plant ?
    2.How I can assign profit centers if MM setup only one plant ?
    3.And eventhough if I pick profit centers in above case as I need through substitution how can I record stock trnsfer in receiving profit center becz SAP we cannot get the fi/co document with intra plant transfer scenario with valaution type is same ?
    Please give me your suggesitions and alternatives which is very helpful fo my project.
    Good points will be assigned with better answer.

    Hello,
    I hope I understood the question properly.
    Assumption - Each branch is a profit center (i.e. you would like to allocate the sales of each branch and the COGS of each branch to a different profit center).
    You have 2 (quite exotic) options:
    1. Define each branch as a profit center. in customizing for MM you can define that the valuation level is the copmany code and not the plant. This is not a very common approach but I have tested it a little and it works. This means that the moving average price for ALL of the plants in the company code for a certaing material will be identical. Be careful when implementing this in an environment with transaction data in MM.
    2. Define each branch as a profit center. Use one plant and each branch as storage location. In this case since it is all one plant, the material will have one value. Try using the profit center substitution for sales order to assign the profit center to the sales order according to the storage location.
    Please note - you will probably not be able to use transfer prices in PCA If you select option 2.
    Kind regards,

  • Relationship b/w profit center Vs plants

    Dear FI-CO guru's
    Can u explain what type of relation ship can  we maintain plant to profit center , is there any assignment to plant vs profit center?
    and explain both aspect of view relationship between plant vs profit center
    thank in advance
    Regards
    A.Guru prasad

    Hi,
    as Sreekanth explains it is not a 1:1 plant => profit-center assignment but a plant => plant view in material master (eg Costing 1) => profit center assignment which makes a big difference.
    Example: plant 1234, profit center 1234_1, 1234_2, in material master plant view plant 1234: one material A is assigned to profit-center 1234_1, another material "B" is assigned to profit-center 1234_2.
    Thus there is no T-Code that shows such a relation of plant / profit center.
    What you can do is to report table MARC (via SE16, SQVI, SQ01) and search for all the MARC-WERKS / MARC-PRCTR combinations that are maintained in your company.
    best regards, Christian

    How to check plant and profit center in transaction MM01, so when user input profit center which belong to other plant, error message occurs.
    thxs and sorry for my english.
    Rgds,
    Ely

    Hi Ely,
    Profit center is like a cost center. The difference is cost center is holding expenses mostly and a profit center create revenue for the organization.
    The profit center is entered in material master "Sales: General/Plant" view.
