MP001500 - adding cost elements

Hi
SAP seems to deliver a screen (3450) for MP200000 - which displays Cost Element information in list view for IT2010. We would like a similar functionality for IT0015. Would this be done through modifying the element list in MP001500/3000 (or a copy of 3000) - or through PM01? The required elements are available through strucure PREF.
Any advice/best practice (also for naming std.) appreciated.

Adding cost element to a particular hierarchy in RSH1 leads to shortdump.

Hi,
I'm facing some issue in production for TCode-RSH1.
Adding cost element to a particular hierarchy in RSH1 leads to shortdump. (Assign_Type_Illegal_Cast). This problem is causing for some hierarchies only.
Steps followed by us for adding cost element:-
1) RSH1-select hierarchy name.
2) In change mode, select a paticular node, click on cost element.
3) Select any of the cost element & click the green button (tick)
When we are following the above steps, it is leading to short dump and giving the following error message:-
Assign_Type_Illegal_Cast.
This issue is causing for some hierarchies & not for all.
Request to suggest the solution..
Regards,
SDN User.

Hi Venkat,
That particular hierarchy is not having multiple nodes. Only one node named Rate & efficiency. and the user needs to add cost element to that node. Now how come your ans match here in this case.
Now is that you are telling that one cost element which is selected is there for that node in some other hierarchy?But it is a different hierarchy , so if it is then it would be a problem?
Or else I have one more doubt....
Is that the user might be having some authorization problem for that particular hierarchy or the info object or cube where the hierarchy is? Because he is saying that he is having this problem for some few only not all hierarchies. So its understandable that RSH1 authorization to edit and create he has.

KEDR - Testing Newly added Cost Element to Derivation Rule

Hi There -
Background: We have Column in COPA KE30 report - 3BOXID. This field is updated with Blank and the reason we found is cost element is missing in dervation rule and we added the respective cost element to Derivation Rule
Can you please help me in testing this
Thanks
Sri

Hi,
Basically i understand that you wish to have HR posting to COPA
Please take a look at attached note 130344.
Basically according to the note there are 2 options:
1. The update of data from the Payroll in Controlling should be carried out in the standard system to the cost center. The actual commissions posted to cost center can then be posted to Profitability Analysis by assessment.
2. If you assign the relevant account via the automatic account assignment in transaction OKB9 to profitability segment a costing-based CO-PA document should be created for the postings of transaction PCP0. The profitability segment determined should only be filled rather scarcely though as not much information is available in this case.

No data found due to cost element adding leading values in report

Hi Experts,
I have an issue where when the run the analyser with some values in variable screen it is displaying the output correctly in analyser tool. I am filtering the cost element with a single value for ex 4545000 and I have kept that in rows . Still the report is working fine. But then when I go back to variable screen and change the input for ex instead of period 3 if I change it to 4 , output is null since the cost element is adding leading values to the existing value in the filter and displaying no result. for ex 4545000 is getting added with controlling area 0050 and its searching for 00500004545000 and since this is not the cost element value its not displaying output..
Any ideas how to rectify this or is it a analyser tool issue..
Thanks in advance
Kishore

Hi,
In my system it looks like this:
Note that superior infoobject to 0costcenter is 0co_area
Hope this helps,

Intractive alv report while adding coloums of cost element of G/L account

Hi guys,
i have a proble with interactive alv report.
i did all the things. its working fine also. now they r asking me to add some coloums
which are from COSP-KSTAR this is cost element.
i need to ristrict perticular cost element according to the company code and fiscal year.
i don't know how we can take the cost elements and how to pass them.
plz any of u help me to come out of this problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Lakshmi..

so , write a select query to table cosp in to it_cospt internal table .
where condition
WRTTP
VERSN
GJAHR .
the above should hard coded the data by asking the Function consultant like version & value type .,
then loop at your final internal table .
read table of it_cospt where gjahr = gjahr
IF final-KOSTL CA it_cospt-OBJNR . for Costcenter validate
because it stores the Costcenter only in the COSP-OBJNR , IF you check table data in BSEG and COSP , even AUFNR ( Internal order ) also to the same field . so that the cost center gets validated in the if condition , for your information if they ask you costelement then it include internal order also if you want ask question to you FI consultant about cost center and Internal order difference ***************
move all your fresh data to your new internal table your it_cospt-KSTAR data also.
append new internal table .
Elseif final-AUFNR CA it_cospt-OBJNR . for INTERNAL ORDER validate
b]move all your fresh data to your new internal table your it_cospt-KSTAR data also.
append new internal table .
ENDIF
**********like that for project id if there is any PS module integration data then .********************
so that your new internal table will have all data including cost element also .
now after this , loop you new internal table
hide technque for drilldown.

BPS Retraction for Cost Center Accounting - Cost Element - Compounding with

Hello everybody,
I'm using the "BPS Retraction for Cost Center Accounting" described in the blog from Praveen Mayalur. I have customized the BPS system (3.5) as described.
But if i started the retraction i receive a dump. I have debug a little bit and i found out that there is a problem with the InfoObject "Cost Element". It is compounding with two InfoObjects "Source system ID" and "Controlling area".
PERFORM FILL_RSRDEP USING I_AREA
                          I_CHANM
                          ITO_CHADEP
                    CHANGING LT_RSRDEP
                             L_SUBRC.
IF L_SUBRC NE 0.
*Abhängige Merkmale müssen in der ITO_CHADEP stehen
MESSAGE X099(UPC).
ENDIF.
Does anybody have this problem before. ?
Regards Detlev

Hi,
it looks that your 0COSTELEMNT has been changed and the additional compounding object 0SOURSYSTEM has bben added. In BI Content it is only compounded to 0CO_AREA. So may be this is the problem.
To be sure that it works you must make the change in your source system to and "compound" 0COSTCENTER to 0SOURSYSTEM. Or you have to chabge the retraction that way that it ignores the source system and only reads 0CO_AREA and costcenter.

BW: Cost Element Hierarchy - from R/3 plus additional node in BW

Hi all,
We have cost element hierarchy (say ZP14PL) which we schedule to update periodically from R/3 into BW . However we would like to add an additional sub-node under this same hierachy via RSH1. As this subnode is only for BW use, this is not maintained in the hierarchy ZP14PL in R/3. With the 'full update' or 'update Subtree' option in the infopackage the hierachy ZP14PL will be deleted and replaced with the latest changes thus removing the additional node which we created for BW only.
Any suggestion as to how we could have the latest hierarchy updated from R/3 without deleting the additional subnode that we added in the same hierachy in BW?
Appreciate all expert advice.
Thanks and best regards,
VC

An easy way would be to include this link into the file using a start routine....
you should know the child node and parent nodes for the same and since the location of the same is going to be constant - you could add it to your start routine....
Or have a time dependent hierarchy but that would mess up your reporting...
Also this is not the correct forum to post BI relevant questions - suggest you post the same in the BI forums for more relevant answers....

Report on Secondary cost elements

Hi all,
Can any one tell me how to see line item report on the secondary cost element that are used in asessment cyles and also how to display the documents that are generated for these secondary cost elements after running the asessment cycles.
Thanks

Hi MKR,
I am assuming that your assessment cycles are tied to cost center as senders, so even though you don't look by assessment cycle you could use transaction S_ALR_87013611. Set the selection criteria for the Controlling Area, month year/period combination and version you need, leave the cost center fields blank and enter as cost element the secondary cost element(s) of your cycles. After executed, double click on the total actual cost amount associated individually to each cost element and an additional screen would be displayed, from where you can select the option to display actual line items report. The list of line items is displayed. If you have the ALV functionality additional columns can be added in the display to segregate the information based, transaction type, origin, etc.
Hope it helps , if it does please award points.
Thanks,

Finance Postings with incorrect cost elements assigned

Hello,
I am implementing the SAP Plant Maintenance Module (PM) at my Company and Iu2019m running into issues with the finance team regarding the finance (FI) postings during the material goods issue (GI) to the order (MIGO) and financial settlement (KO88) of all order costs.
When a material is issued to the order via MIGO a material document is created with two financial GL postings; credit the inventory account and debit the material expense account. The posting made to the parts expense account contains a reference to a profit center and the PM Order. However my FI Group is saying the posting to the parts expense account must be accompanied by a Cost Center. My understanding of this is that the PM Order itself is an interim cost collector which is why itu2019s referenced in the posting and not a cost center. Knowing that once the settlement run is executed for the PM Order the costs collected in the order will be settled to the appropriate cost elements. Once settlement occurs the FI postings are generated for the materials and the costs are moved to the cost center of the equipment/PM Order. The two material postings generated are; credit to the material expense account (offsets the G.I. posting above) and a debit to the expense account along with the cost center of the equipment. The debit posting to the expense account is the posting that carries the cost center assignment and the one which I believe my finance team is looking however as I said above they expect the cost center assignment in all postings to the parts expense account.
Can anyone tell me what the SAP Standard approach is for CO postings during a Goods Issue to a PM Order and the CO postings for materials during settlement? Is it possible to post to a cost center and PM Order at the same and for what business reason would this be done?
Thank you,
Mike

Hi,
Spare parts or components are the company assets. So while issuing those components for consumption, asset account for materials would get value reduced & expense account for the material would get value added. Here no picture for Cost Center.
Only while doing the settlement, cost center will come into picture by getting the value from order to the Cost center.

Maheswaran.

Change cost element category from 1 to 11

Dear all,
We created by mistake revenues accounts with cost element category 1 instead of 11.
We created a sales document (contract) with account assignment to a WBSE. The revenues were appearing as negative planned cost so we realized the mistake.
Now we have deleted the item in the sales document, we have created a new revenue account with the correct cost element category 11 and we have added to the account determination (VKOA).
Now the revenue appears in the new cost element. Nonetheless we still see the revenue value as a negative planned cost.
If we create a new project and a new sales document everything is correct. But we want to mend the first one. Any idea of how?
Best regards

Fantastic !
Thank you very much

Condition Type with cost element category 1

Dear Sap expert,
I have costing based copa and I am running make to stock scenario.
SD team added new condition type in their pricing.
This condition type is mapped to FI GL account which is a cost account (cost element category 1) while the other condition type in SD pricing is cost element category 11 or 12.
I mapping this cost account to a cost center in OKB9.
But when SD run billing, there is an error message :
"Prof.segment for prim.cost elements not advisable for costing-based CO-PA" .
I don't mapped this new condition type to copa value field.
But Why does this error come?
Please help me.
Regards

Hi Anu
This is standard behaviour... Once you have COPA active, the Prof Segment gets derived when you create Sales Order...
So, any posting that happens from Billing, gets assigned to this Prof Segment...
The design is such that you cant post to COPA using Catg 1 cost element....
So, if you are posting to this GL account from SD Billing, you need to have it as Catg 11 or 12.... If you dont want to post it to COPA, then do not post to this GL from SD billing.. Post it from FI side...
