Map Profit Center as custom field to product

Hi,
We want to map Profit Center(35 characters) to a custom field in product for some analysis. We want to map it to Custom Attribute 2 (XARLPROA2) this is a 40 character long field.
We do not want to see this field in Reports in UI. Please let us know is this the right approach or would you suggest some other field to which wecan map Profit Center.
Regards
Neel

Hi Neel
I am assuming that you are referring to display attribute and not navigation attribute that needs to be added to product. Yes, thats the same as adding an attribute in standard BW way.
And then, in the SPM UI you can display attributes in the contextual menu of a particular product.
But if you do need to do analysis on it then on top of adding the attribute, you need to flag it as navigation and then bring it in the following:
The respective cube(s) 0ASA_C*
Add it into the multiprovider 0ASA_MP01
Add it to the Query
Log into SPM UI and refresh all data sources (make sure that no other users are logged in at that time), log out
Clear browser cache and log back in
Create report with that nav att
Hope that helps!

Replicating Custom Fields for Products in CRM from ECC

Hi All,
I am having difficulty in replicating SAP standard field values from ECC to custom fields for products in CRM. This is what i did:
1. I created a new settype(ZMASTER_INFO) with a single attribute(ZIND_STD) and added
    this new settype to MAT_HAWA. (As all our materials fall under this material type).
2. I am looking to map SAP standard field from ECC to this custom field of mine.
    I wrote the code in CRM BADI
    'ZPRODUCT_CUSTOMER2->MAP_R3_TO_CRM_MATERIAL' with the following code:
DATA: ls_ZMASTER_INFO TYPE ZMASTER_INFO_maintain.
DATA: ls_category_bdoc       TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL_MAINTAIN,
      ls_category            TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL,
      lt_categories          TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL_TAB,
      ls_settype             TYPE COMT_settype_ext,
      ls_cat_settype_rel     TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL,
      lt_cat_settype_rel     TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL_TAB,
      lt_cat_settype_rel_all TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL_TAB.
LOOP AT lt_cat_settype_rel_all INTO ls_cat_settype_rel.
      CALL FUNCTION 'COM_SETTYPE_READ_SINGLE'
        EXPORTING
          IV_SETTYPE_GUID         = ls_cat_settype_rel-frgtype_guid
        IMPORTING
          ES_SETTYPE              = ls_settype
       EXCEPTIONS
         NOT_FOUND               = 1
         NO_IMPORT_VALUES        = 2
         NO_TEXT_FOUND           = 3 .
      IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
      ENDIF.
CASE ls_settype-frgtype_id.
      WHEN 'ZMASTER_INFO'.
      ls_ZMASTER_INFO-relation-owner = 'X'.
      ls_ZMASTER_INFO-relation-logsys = cs_product_bdoc-header-com_product-logsys.
      ls_ZMASTER_INFO-data-ZZ0010 = is_mara-STD_DESCR.
      ls_ZMASTER_INFO-DATA_X-ZZ0010 = 'X'.
      APPEND ls_ZMASTER_INFO TO cs_product_bdoc-data-ZMASTER_INFO.
      APPEND ls_settype-FRGTYPE_GUID TO cs_product_bdoc-data-MNT_SETTYPE.
   ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
Since in ECC i am not having any custom fields i did not write any code in ECC for TPS34 and TBE24. I just wrote this BADI in CRM and using the field S_MARA-STD_DESCR.
I am not sure if i need to write the code in ECC. COUld anyone please confirm if i need the code in ECC?
Also in the CRM BADI, lt_cat_settype_rel_all is EMPTY. Not sure how this gets its value.
Could anyone please suggest if i am missing anything here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Karuna.

Hi Karuna,
One more solution is to change the BDoc data content before it hit the Database.
this can be done in badi: Data_Exchange_badi (if u dont find this try with following search string: xchange)
In the above mention badi you will find a method which is used to populated the contend jst after bdoc in CRM is being populated by R/3 data.

Profit Center in Customer and Vendor Line item

Hello Guru
i have one doubt we have activated the new GL in one of client for profit center level. while posting through any of financial transaction particularly customer and vendor there is no filed for input parameters for profit center. while booking these kind of transaction system pick up the dummy profit center. even our field status group for gl master data and posting key made as optional PCA filed not displaying. client want it should be pick up automatically from line item and should be input parameters.
how to resolve this issue please let me know.
waiting for your reply
Thanks & Regards
Laxmi narayan

Hi,
You are saying that u have activated New G/L, but are u gone for document spliting also or not? if you have activated document spliting customer and vendor line items not at all required any profit center because it will petch the profit center from oppsite line item automatically for giving tallyed balance sheet at profit center leavel, so no question profit center required or going to dummy profit center because dummy profit center will be locked automatcially once u activate document spliting.
if you have not activated document spliting then customer and vendor line items may require profit center its depends on your field status settings, if you feel that it should not go to dummy profit center then maintain some profit center in 3keh & 3kei settings for customer and vendor reconcliation accounts, so that it will post to that profit center.
Thanks & Regards

Saurabh

Hi,
Update the customer master sort kye field with PROFIT CENTER.
So that it wiill update the assignment field in line item.
If you are cclearing manually select assignment field and give your profit center details then system will pick line items relevent to that profit center
If you are clearing using automatic clearing functionality configure OB74 with zuonr(assignment) and vbund(trading partner) criterias for your customer master records.

Assignment profit center on customer

Hello,
I want to know if it's possible to assign a profit center on customer and, when I create a post in customer order, this profit center is automatically entered in field "profit center" on tab "Account assignment" of the post data.
I would therefore have the same assignment on profit center for one customer, whatever the article ordered.
Thanks.
Laurent Guilloteau

Please try through substitution. Transaction code is GGB1.
Prerequisite ===> BSEG-KUNNR = '1000036'
Substituion ====> Profit Center Constant value 100201

Search on the custom field in Product doesn't work

Hello everyone!
Lately I was configuring additional custom field for product header and succeed. Then I wanted to add this field as a search criteria for product search and I followed help on help.sap.com and note 1026956. Here are the steps I did:
1. I've extended structures CRMT_PRIL_QUERY_ADVSEARCH_PROD and CRMT_PRIL_QUERY_ADVSEARCH_IOBJ with my custom attribute.
2. I went to Master Data->Products-> Basic Settings ->Add Attributes to Search Structure and added my custom attribute there.
3. Then I found out that it's not enough and I should perform additional steps not included in note and help. I did these steps suggested by Shanthala Kudva in thread [Can't enable the extendable set type attributes in product search UI|Can't enable the extendable set type attributes in product search UI;.
After that I was able to configure UI and see the search criteria, but when I try to search using custom field I get error message: "Search criteria PRODUCT_ANKER.ZCAT_NUMBER in scenario CL_CRM_PRSEARCHSCENARIO_GETLST not included in tool/filter"
How to find out the reason of this behavior? Did I miss something in configuration?
P.S. Set type called ZPRODUCT, attribute ZCATNUMBER. In structures appended component called ZCAT_NUMBER with component type ZCATNUMBER. In table CRMC_PRSEA_ATTR the record has the attributename ZCAT_NUMBER, attribute_id ZCATNUMBER. Maybe I messed up with that?
Regards,
Alex.

Hi Alexander,
I know this is an old post, but currently i am facing the same issue of not being able to see my custom fields in the BSP Component Workbench.
I tried to follow all steps maintained in SAP Note # 10269656 & 1541480, but no luck.
Can you please tell me what do you mean by "Should not add the extended attributes directly to Search Structure, as SAP expects the attributes to be in APPEND structure"? Can you please let me know how the values are to be maintained in the Search structure table "CRMC_PRSEA_ATTR", which is also accessed using the IMG Meanu path "Master Data --> Products --> Basic Settings --> Add Attributes to Search Structure"
Appreciate your help.

Mass update of a custom field at Product Revenue level

We are trying to update a custom field at Product Revenue level using the Opportunity Web Service. The webservice call is timing out as we have thousands of Opportunities.
I would appreciate if anybody gives input on how we can massively update a custom field using Opportunity Web Service.
OR
Is there a way to mass update a custom field at Product Revenue level other than using a web service.
Thanks for your help!

If you are not very much obsessed with Webservices, the other workaround is the Data Loader Tool. It was discussed earlier in this forum.

Hi
You can create field using EEWB or follow the following simple process
1. Create the required field as " attribute" using the tcode COMM_ATTRSET
2. Assign it to a set type using the same tcode COMM_ATTRSET
3. Assign this set type to the product category usign the tcode COMM_HIERARCHY in the set type tab and use the view ID as "BASIC"
The field will then be available to you in the product master to the products with are created with the named product category
Hope this helps

Add a custom field for Product Allocation

Hi experts,
I have copied S140 to S501 to add a custom field for product allocation.
I have added the custom field in MCVBAKUSR, so it is visible in MCVBAK.
However, I don't know whether I can populate data into custom field. I searched in forum, someone said it can be done in SAP enhancement MCS10001. But it can't work. I have tried to place a break-point in the code, and seems that throughout the order creation and product allocation check, it hasn't get into the codings in enhancement MCS10001.
Can anyone give me some idea on it? Thanks.

You should have simply extended VBAK table. It would've taken care of extending MCVBAK, etc. Then VBAK field would have to be populated in a user exit USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAK in MV45AFZB, when a document is being created/changed.

Introduction of additional customer fields in productive system

Dear experts,
in the SAP help and OSS-notes (SAP Note 891144) it is strongly recommended NOT to introduce additonal customer fields for the new General Ledger Accounting in already productive systems. I would like to know if this because of technical reasons , e.g. field creation or assignment is technically not possible because transaction data is already in the system, or because of the problemsfor the reporting when the fields are not correctly filled .
Thanks a lot.

Hello,
In my opinion, the purpose of this OSS note 891144 is to inform about the risk when you Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger. In that customizing point, the 2 fields zero balance and mandatory field must be ticked in order to avoid any consistancies related mainly to document posting without profit center, Bus Area or Segment ...
If document splitting is activated, means document must be posted with profit center (or Bus Area or Segment if they are activated) information in order to have correct info and correct reports
But please contact SAP directly if you have problems regarding this
Best regards
Tarek

Profit Center in Customer Line Item

Hi SDN,
We have created a validation during posting of Sp Gl transactions for both Vendor or Customer. This validation mandates the profit center in the Vendor/Customer line item to ensure that a profit center will be derived even for documents with purely balance sheet items (e.g. Dr AR Cr Bank Inc Clearing)
We were successfull in bringing out the profit center in the vendor line item (for Special GL transactions)
However, for customer special GL transactions, we did the same settings as with the vendor settings (updated FSG and posting key to activate profit center) but system does not show profit center field for customer sp GL transactions.
Any idea as to why only customer line item does not reflect the profit center while the vendor line item shows it?
Thanks

Hi,
What is the special GL indicator account type?
Have you changed the FSG settings for special GL account?

Profit Center wise & customer and vendor ageing balance

HI,
If anyone has developed the profit center ageing report for customer & vendor open items, then plz provide me the logic used. I need the same to implement for my customer.
Standard reports ( FBL1N/FBL5N or new GL reports) are not solving my purpose
Thanks:
Gaurav

PCA wise Customer Aging: - Development
I also developed the same report with following logic and It is working till now.
1. Copy the Standard customer aging report S_ALR_87012176 and pass the same documents into FAGLFLEXTA and get the Profit Center.
PCA wise Open Items: - Standard
1. GO to FAGLL03 Report
2. Give all customer reconciliation accounts in GL Account Field in selection (including Spl GL Recon Accounts)
3. and Execute report, call Customer Code, and Profit Center Field in Layout (in standard layout, Customer Code available, name is not viable).
4. Short PCA and Customer wise, we will get PCA wise Open Items.
use the same logic for Vendor also.
Please check and revert if you need more clarity.

Ganesh Lokam
