Material Master: Division and Profit Centre

Hello,
In the material master, is it possible to have combination of Profit centre with respect to Division?
(that is for perticular Division only certain Profit centres will be applicable)

No not possible. Both are separate entries. Business area is now obsolete. Profit centre wise P&L and balance sheets can be made. Profit centres are generally at plant level while business area is at product level. There is nothing to assign them together.
Thanks

  • Division and Profit Centre Relationship?

    Hi,
    Is anyone able to provide a definition of the objects DIVISION and PROFIT CENTRE and also what their relationship is with each other?
    Thanks,
    M.

    Division : A way of grouping materials, products, or services. The system uses divisions to determine the sales areas and the business areas for a material, product, or service.
    A product or service is always assigned to just one division. From the point of view of sales and distribution, the use of divisions lets you organize your sales structure around groups of similar products or product lines. This allows the people in a division who process orders and service customers to specialize within a manageable area of expertise.
    Profit Centre: An organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
    Operating results for profit centers can be analyzed using either the cost of sales approach or the period accounting approach.
    By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your profit centers for use as investment centers.

  • Sales Documents and Profit Centre and GL Accounts

    Currently a when we create a sales document for a plant, that document is posting to a specific GL account (Cash on Hand account) and profit centre. In VKOA, the Account Assignment Group is assignment to a GL Account, and that AAG is assigned to the material master. I want to find out how SAP is currently determining to which profit centre and GL Account it is posting to. The only thing that I can get is the Plant and sales office in the Sales document.

  • Assign Plant to a GL Account and Profit Centre

    Where do I assign a plant to a GL account and Profit Centre.

    Hi,
    a plant is not direct assigned to a profit-center and not to a G/L account.
    A plant is assigned to a company code (in customizing), a GL account can be created (account master data) within a company code (if its used in this CC), a profit-center is assigned to one/more company codes (profit-center master data).
    In material master / costing 1 view (which is plant related) you can assign a material to a profit center, thus all postings in one plant related to this material belong to this profit center.

    Dearest all,
    does anybody know what the relation between prod. hierarchies and profit centre?
    actually, i am trying to display total of actual line items (table GPCPT, if i am not wrong). The total value grouped by Profit Centre?

    Jignesh Thakkar
    That was really good answer you gave it is according with the Help instruction that I read, but the main point for me is that I will not know the asset description or capitalized date or serial number,  location, etcu2026 until I goods receipt the individual material creating serial nods and the equipment master data.
    In this scenario from the equipment master data is there any way to create an Asset master data, create the asset master data with the information of the GR equipment master Data or populate the Asset AS01 with the equipment master data?
    Otherwise I will need manually create the Asset and manually synchronize the equipment with the asset?
    Thanks Guys it have been incredibly helpful this network I hope I can help some one in future as it have been helpful for me at the moment.

    If you have the sales document number VBELN then pass this VBELN in to table VBAK and you can get the sales document type VBAK-AUART.
    Now pass the same VBELN to VBAP table here you can get the Profit Center VBAP-PRCTR

  • Cost centre and Profit centre in one query - Authorisations not working!

    Hiya,
    I have another problem related to Analysis Authorisations.
    I have created an AA with Cost Centre and Profit centre access restricted to a certain node of a hierarchy (type 1 - this node and below). For example, the User can only run a query at Cost Centres level of Country Belgium - the query works fine. Now, the user wants to drill down by the relevant Profit centres. According to the log, the system checks for Profit centres like * and says the user is not authorised. All this, despite the fact that all Profit centres belong to country Belgium and user has been given access to see these profit centres.
    What do I need to do to enable drilldown by Profit centre? I can't make a "*" access to Profit centre as the user will be able to run other queries at global level, which is not what I can allow.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I don't know if it is relevant, but I had a similar problem when I had two characteristic each with hierarchy restrictions in one authorization object.
    I "solved" it by separting each characteristic into its own authorization object.

  • Difference Between FI and Profit Centre Value In Stock GL

    Hi
    After running the report 1KEH (Tranfer Matrial Stocks) the difference of 1000 is coming out between profit centre and FI in one of the semi finished stock Gls. The MM report MB5L is also showing that difference between stock and FI value. (Materail value is less than FI value). Can anybody please guide me how to dig out this problem where the difference is arising.
    Kind Regards

    Hi,
    in most cases its a manual FI-posting that causes the difference, compare MB5L logistics details (per material) with FI-postings (per material, maybe its needed to create a query/quick view to get this info). Do you have the difference again for another MB5L line? This can happen if the Balnce sheet account in FI-account determination is changed.

    The Program running FBL1N is RFITEMAP.
    Warm regards

    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.

  • Update new material master weight and dimension in open sales orders and de

    Hi,
    Iu2019m maintaining gross weight, net weight, volume in material master. When the time of sales order entry in VA01 its calculating weight and dimensions based on material master and order quantity. And I create deliveries in VL01N.
    If I made a correction in the net and gross weight in material master after I created the sales order will the correct net and gross weight will pick up at the delivery creation.
    In other term is the VL01N net and gross weight is taking from which is available in SO or Material master.
    Is there any standard transaction to update already existing open sales order, delivery net and gross weight once it is corrected in material master?
    Please advice.
    Sam

    Is there any standard transaction to update
    No it is not possible to update the weight in existing sale order or delivery.  You have to change it manually or create a new sale order.   Weight in delivery will be fetched from sale order only and hence,  whatever delivery you create referencing a sale order, system will copy whatever is there.
    thanks
