Multiple Cost centres to single position

Hi,
Is it possible to add multiple costcentres to same position. I tried using tcode PFOS and added the costcenters to the position but when I view the same from tcode PPOME the other costcenters are not visible. Please let me know how we can make it visible in org. structure.
Best Regards
MS

>Use relation A 014 (cost center distribution) between a postition with several cost centers
Create a record for infotype 1018 if you wish to distribute costs to more than one cost center .Enter which portion of the costs you would like to distribute to which cost center. If the object is already assigned a master cost center, the left-over share will be written to this cost center.

OM - Multiple Cost Centres link with Org Unit/Position not to employee

Hello gurus,
In OM there can only be one relationship at a time between an organizational unit and cost centre (A011). For those areas where there is a requirement for the position to have control over more than one cost centre, there are multiple options.
Option 1 - If only one of the cost centres is used for employee cost incurrence, this should be the main cost centre, and the others controlled through authorizations.
Option 2 - If more than one cost centre is used for employee cost incurrence, a subordinate organizational unit is created into which those positions are placed. In this scenario, the subordinate organizational units would not have a chief, and the reporting structure would go up to the more senior organizational units.
Option 3 - Use Cost centre distribution infotype 1018 (A014)
My question: is there a standard way through which we can show multiple cost centres attached to a position/org unit such that cost incurred by employees goes to master cost centre attached to org unit or positon and other cost centres are just attached to position/orgunit (just to show the org unit/position is managing these other cost centres as well).
Any thoughts? Anybody has used Enterprise Organization in CO to achieve this?
Regards,
Ahmad

To capture more than 1 cost center, you have to specify them in IT-1018 but employee's cost will be split based on this.
For data maintanance alone cost distribution is not possible (based on my knowledge).
May be equivalent custom infotype similar to 1018 @ Postiion / Org Unit level may work.
along with Master Cost center.

How to Capture Multiple Cost centres and Business Unit information in a project?

Dear Experts,
With the help of UDA functionality in project super responsibility, I have captured Cost centre and Business unit information and this info will be used/reflected in CC and BU segments of all transactions gets recorded against that project.
Now, our user wish to have multiple cost centres and business units to be tracked in the same one project. How is this feasible? Below example describes my requirement in a summary, please advise.
An Indirect project is created when a defect on a machine reported from client's customer and all subsequent activities (purchases, travel to customer site to analyse and troubleshoot, purchases for any in-house analysis etc..involves costs spending internally) in resolving that defect/project involves 6 to 7 different departments (Sales, Tech Support, Quality team etc.,who actually work/travel and spend costs against project until defect resolution). And, each of the above departments will have 1 dedicated owner (project owners) to manage that project and each of these 6 or 7 owners owners will have their own cost centres (eg: 2345 - Sales team) against which they wish to see their transactions (travel, purchases during defect resolution) globally.
So, all I want to know is how can I make one single project to accommodate multiple cost centresand business unit information to be assigned using UDA? Please let me know if I am not clear.
Regards
Venkat

I think you should use the expenditure organization on the transaction itself to derive the CC/BU. Have AA lookups and define AA rules where you look at a Exp Org to BU or Cost Center to derive accounting.

Trying to delete a cost centre against a position

Hello fellow SAP users,
We've run into a issue when trying to delete a cost centre record against a position, the scenario is as follows:
Cost centre was created on the Parent Org Unit on the 01.01.1900 and delimited 01.06.2010.
This created an infotype 0001 record for the employee with a blank cost centre (correct) effective 01.06.2010.
Administrator then created the same cost centre against the position (incorrect as this is a non-payroll org unit and position within it so therefore no requirement for a cost centre to be captured) from the 01.09.2011 with high date.
This created an infotype 0001 record for the employee with the cost centre reflecting effective 01.09.2011.
Now when trying to correct the above we want to delete the cost centre against the position (record from the 01.09.2011) however we get the following message: "HISTORICAL RECORD ALREADY CREATED". So we are unable to delete this record in order to correct the master data on both OM and PA side, keeping in mind no payroll is run for this employee.
How do we correct this?
Look forward to the feedback provided.
Kind regards
Dorianne

Hi,
The message is because your position has the historical record flag (HRP1000-HISTO) set to u2018Xu2019. From SAP help:
Allows you to mark infotype records as historical records. Historical records are permanently stored on the database, so that you can report on the information at a later point in time.
NOTE: You cannot change records once they are marked as historical. As a result, you should not mark records as historical unless you no longer require them for processing.
Typically, the flag is set if a user has delimited an object through PP01. Youu2019d see the historical flag in the window that pops up.
To remove the flag, execute report RHHISTO0, enter the relevant details in the selection and execute. The next screen ill show you which record has the flag set. Select that row and click u201Cremove historical recordu201D button on top. You should then be able to remove cost center from the position.
Hope this helps.

How to post depreciation to multiple cost centre?

Hi
In the asset master there is only one cost centre for each asset. This cost centre determines the cost centre to post to for depreciation expense. Is there a way to post to multiple cost centre?
Hope someone can advise.
Thank you.

Hi,
1) Substitution rules would help you.
2) Through distribution or assessment allocate the depreciation expenses to multiple cost centers.
Thanks,
Murali

Distribute from multiple cost centers to single cost center

Hello,
I have a requirement follows this way:
multiple costs are posted to a few P&L accounts and a cost center. Now I want to distribute these total costs to multiple cost centers on a certain percentage basis. How to do this? I used Cost Center distribution. But the actual costs did not show up on the receiver side. Please tell me how to do this.
Thanks

Thanks for your replies. I tried to settle to G/L account through Allocation structure. The same G/L account is debited and credited. Why is this happening and what is the concept behind this?
Here is my scenario. We collect all the costs on a WBS element and then settle to a cross company code GL account. What is the best approach to achieve this? Please advise.
Thanks

Multiple cost documents for single shipment document

Hi All,
My recuirement is as follows. (this is for Cement industry implementation)
1) In a shipment document i wil inculde mustiple deliveries for which a single route wil be deterimined and only one stage is used. For Ex. I include 10 deliveries say dly no. 1 to 10. now when my vendor sends bills for the services rendered. ill be making payment only for the deliveries which vendor sends the bill. say vendor sent bills for dly nos. 1,2,4 7, 8 and 10.
so my query here is when i created a single shipment document for all the 10 deliveries, i would like to make the payment for the selected deliveries only. is this is possible ? if yes please what all the possibilities ?
2) same as point 1. but when the routes are different.
please explain on the both the scenarios.
Regards
Sree...

As you aware that,
Shipment cost created to capture the freight involved in that consignment. Once consignment is finished then vendor issues bill to the client. vendor bill doesnt reflect to the shipment cost, where when you save the shipment cost document service entry sheet will be generated which is used in vendor invoice verification, but not the shipment cost document.
if client wants to charge the frieght calculated in shipment cost document in Customer invoice, you have to create shipment cost document ,before your vendor issues any invoice to the client.
Coming to your requirement,
maintain shipment cost relevance @ item level, noting but you will be calculating freight at each delivery level. while creating condition record, all the deliveries will be copied in shipment cost document at item level, here you delete whatever the deliveries you dont want to capture the freight in VI01 & save it. one service entry sheet will be generated for only listed deliveries & do the invoice verification to settle the amount to the vendor.
now, try to create one more shipment cost document wrt: shipment doc, but only for the remaining deliveries. Hope you can create because shipment document has not yet been completed.

Statistical Internal Orders - How can i charge to multiple cost centers

In the master data for the statistical internal orders, I am only able to enter one cost center in the 'Actual Posted Cctr' field. Is there a way to have multiple cost centers and the allocation % for each cost center (similar to the settlement rules on regular internal orders)?
thanks!

Hiya,
OKB9 works by assigning multiple Cost Centres to the Company Code + GL combination. However, I don't believe OKB9 is your solution - for the simple reason that you wish to post the information to multiple CCtrs, along with posting it to this Statistical IO.
In my opinion, you may have to delete the Actual Cost Centre assignment and, at the time of document posting, assign the True CCtr as well as this IO, or look for a User Exit that will trigger flows to multiple CCtrs along with this IO.
The other option is to make this a real posting to this IO (change the IO from statistical to real), and then settle this cost to multiple CCtrs. As long as it stays statistical, you don't have the liberty of settling the cost.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Cost centre wise budgeting

Hi All,
Can any one explain how to do budgeting cost centre group wise?
Thanks in advance,
Manisha

I have a question.
The purpose of the cost centre is to control the cost at different levels. If the budgeting is not done at the cost centre level but at the cost centre node than is it better to make the node as the cost centre instead of the multiple cost centre below it.
E.g in the present scenerio the budgeting is done at cost centre node level. There are 7 cost centre below this node. Now one of the cost centre is taken as the representative and the major expenses as Power and Direct labor are put in this. Other petty expenses are directly put in the respective cost centre.
Is this a good pactice. Also at present they are not having full CO implementation. They do not have the assessment and distribution cycles.
Please suggest that if there is large no of Cost centre than what will be the impact when complete cost centre accounting, Product costing, PA and PCA will be implemented in ECC 6.0.
Thanks for he reply.

Cost Centre Distribution by Percentage in a Contract

Hi,
In a PO, it is possible to split the costs of one item to multiple cost centres using distribution by percentage function in account assignment tab.
I need the same process in creation of contract, so an item can have costs split to multiple cost centres. I cannot find a way to do this, contract only seems to give one cost centre option.
Has anyone any thoughts on how to achieve this?
Thanks.

In ME31K select the item , go to Item -- Account assignments enter the first account assignment object then choose the Change display option. Here you can enter multiple account assignments.
Cheers

Posting to a cost centre from a sales order

Hi all. We are currently in the process of replacing a third party system which deals with publicity mailing and taking the process onto our SAP system.
At the moment a report is run on the third party system at month end which details the months costs (freight and handling) which is then uploaded into SAP by JV in order to make the postings to the correct cost centres.
However, the current method of raising orders via email will be replaced with raising sales orders on SAP. The sales order will obviously allow postings to a profit centre via the material, but how do I then get the costs into a cost centre for reporting and budgetary control?
I originally thought of using OKB9, however the relationship is not a simple one profit centre to one cost centre, and the costs have to be split across multiple costs centres.
Any ideas would be extremely welcome.
If you need any further info just let me know.
Many thanks

There are a couple of options depending on how the data comes in and how you want to disburse it. You could use a substitution rule and you could also do CO allocations as well. This is because you have one profit center and many cost centers. One to one is a an easy flow match.

Way to mass change cost centre in positions

Hi Experts
We have a scenario, where the client i srequired to change the cost centre for multiple positions. Is there any report by which this can be done at one go.
Regards
Saurav

First of all, u r talkin abt positions and cost centers....
i would like to know ... how u mapped ur Costcenters to Positions ?
did u maintain relationship thru Org Unit ? realtion ship A011 ?
Then simple change Cost Center of Units accordingly, this would take hardly 10 min.
Otherwise, use BDC to change the relationship for each position....from the date of effective.
Option Move in PPOME is very useful for mass changes... like selecting n number of positions together and moving to required units

Hi,
This you can do it in two ways:
1. Make three header under top level....one Product A, 2nd Product B ( as Billing element) and third as Common expense ( only cost). Now 1st & 2 nd WBS, you have to have sales order linking with individual lint item, for third you will accumulate all the common expense till the period end then make a reposting of the same in desired proportion to both products WBS hierarchy
(This is if you want to have a track on the common expense as well.......like planning, budgeting & control)
After this reposting, run RA for individual billing element and hence you will all the complement detailing and control over Revenue and expense with respect to Product A and Product B individually.
2. If you don't want to maintain that kind of detailing the common expense and keep track of it through project, then have cost centers accordingly and make an assesment/ distribution with respect to expenses accumulated at those cost centers for the period to the respective WBS under each product. Then execute the period end processes for the project.
Or
You can try with have two more line items in the costing sheet as an overhead against common expenses with respect each product.
I hope this should help you.
