New GL features (Profit Center Segmentation) in SEM-BCS

Experts,
I'm planning to use New GL feature (Profit Center Segmentation) in ECC 6. I also intent to use SEM-BCS as consolidation report.
Can this New GL feature be used in SEM-BCS? Please let me know how to use them in SEM-BCS.
Thank you for your respond.

Sorry I was away.
I am in ECC 6 and the New GL report gives Profi center report . But I ca get the comfort like 8A ledger with drill down.
My doubt is will the new GL report takes care of all CO related transactions w/o GL?
Thanks, Chitra

  • Derivation segment (new GL) from profit center in CO-PA

    Hi experts,
    i have problem with derivation segment (new GL) from profit center in CO-PA. I tried Table lookup in KEDR to CEPC table, but SAP want date - DATBI (Valid To Date). I don´t know which Field name with origin CO-PA should choose? How solve this problem with derivation segment from profit center in CO-PA? I think, i will have to use Enhancement - userexit...
    Thanks a lot,
    Gustavo

    Hi Ajay,
    i know about this field, i tried it. But when i try test in KEDR, the segment doesn´t derived. Tha SAP write No value found. USERTEMP1 have initial value is allowed (i tried constant 31.12.9999 too), the segment in CEPC is corect - exist: PC: MVV140000, CO area MVV, valid to 31.12.9999, segment: 0. Where should be problem?

  • Profit Center Segment Change

    Hi,
    We have been using a segment on a profit center that is incorrect. There have been many postings to the profit center. I realize that I cannot change the segment directly in the master data of the profit center. What is the best way to approach this problem? Do I change the validity period of the existing profit center, create a new profit center with the correct segment and transfer the values?
    Any suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Andy

    Creating a new profit center with the correct segment is a good idea, but you will also have the need (I assume) to rectify the segment in the existing postings; else you have to have another means to consolidate the numbers into the correct segment for reporting purposes.  The segment from the profit center gets defaulted in the transaction data, but using field status, you should also be able to change the incorrect segment in the existing transaction data (again, volume may be a constraint here!).

  • Changing profit center - segment assignment in ERP2004

    Dear Experts,
    A customer of mine uses segments for IFRS reporting. They have been live for about 9 months, so obviously all profit centers already contain transaction data. In beginning of next year the number of segments will increase, but they do not want to create totally new profit centers since they already now have thousands of profit centers, so they would very much prefer to simply change the profit center-> segment assignment.
    Changing the segment is commented in OSS note 940721. Given their current version and Support Pack level, segment can be changed in Mass maintenance, as implied in OSS note 940440. This is an error, but customer is very happy about this error.
    However, now they have discovered that segment can also be a time-dependent field. This is commented in OSS note 940629, where it is stated that segment should not be changeable therefore, if I understand right, it should not be time-dependant.
    Customer's question to me is: Since they at the moment can actually make time-dependant changes to segment, are there any side-effects if they do so? I can appreciate that the answer which I presume to be SAP's official answer "you must create new profit centers instead of making time-dependant changes" is not a desired solution for my customer. I expect customer will have problems if they implement the SP's where segment becomes a totally unchangeable field or if they upgrade to ERP2005 - at the minimum they will lose the possibility to change the segment, but I do not know what will happen to the time-dependant data if the field is changed so that it no longer is time-dependant.
    From a document posting point of view, I guess there should not be any side-effects, I expect system will post documents to the segment that is valid on the posting date.
    I hope there is someone who has had the same problem, or if there at least is someone who has had to solve the problem of having the need to change the segment assignment - is creating a new profit center really the only safe way to do it?
    All answers are appreciated!

  • Profit center -- segment as entry ifield in customer posting

    Hi,
    we're in a New GL environment with the document splitting active.
    I wonder if it is possible to have the profit center -segment field open for entry in the customer line of a posting?
    I tried to make profit center and segment as 'mandatory entry' in the field status of the posting key and the customer reconciliation account but without succes.
    thanks for advice,
    François

    Christian,
    I'm using F-28 transaction. What I'm willing to do is to allocate some money I received from my client to the correct site (Segment->profit center). The thing is that the remittance advice has not yet been received so I can not yet clear my bank account against my customer.
    On the other hand I'm not allowed to allocate the cash to another profit center than the one linked to the bank accounts (business rule). So I can not indicate the profit center of the site on the bank account. this is the reason why I want to set one particular profit center on the customer side/
    thanks for info

  • Deriving the profit center / segment during Bank Reconciliation

    Hi SDN,
    One of our requirements is to generate a Financial Statement by Segments.
    For this reason, we also need to derive / tag our Bank Reconciliation documents (Manual and Electronic) to the corresponding profit centers or segments. The problem though is that during FF67 or FF_5, there's no way we can enter these data.
    At the same time, we can't set a default profit center via FAGL3KEH since these bank accounts may be used for multiple profit centers and not defaulted to one only.
    My question now is, can we use the document splitting functionality so that we can "inherit" the profit center / segment from the payment document during bank recon?
    To give you an idea here's a sample flow of what we wanted.
    Customer Invoice (GL view)      - OK in the system
    Dr  Accounts Receivable  (profit center 1) *inherited
    Cr  Revenue Account (profit center 1)
    Incoming Payment (GL view)     - OK in the system
    Dr Incoming Clearing (profit center 1)
    Cr Accounts Receivable (profit center 1)
    Bank Reconciliation        
    Dr Main Bank             (profit center 1)
    Cr Incoming Clearing (profit center 1)
    Currently, system does not inherit the bank reconciliation document to the right profit center. Is there any way we can do this in the system?
    Thanks

    Dear,
    During bank Reco system inherit the Profit Center from the document which it is clearing. There is no need to maintain Default the same in FAGL3KEH.
    Please activate splitting at Profit Center level.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Profit Center & Segment wise payments

    1. Looking for a document for enhancement of profit center & segment wise payments in F110 Payment Programe. exit\BADI ?
    2. What exit is sutable for automatic bank determination in F110 payment programe

    There is a workaround to use the field business place or payment method supplement.
    E.g. You can use specific payment supplement method for specific profit centers. And then can populate that payment method supplement during the document posting - manually or via substitution.
    Then you can select that payment method supplement in the free selection in F110.

  • Profit center segment characteristics fileds activation.

    Hi All
    Where we can activite (t.code or path) Profit center segment fields (charasteristics) while generation of Sales order.

    Hi,
    Profit Center field should normally be available in Sales order line item in Account Assignment tab. If it is not visible, please check the field status group of Revenue GL Code. (Profit center field should be made optional). Also check the settings of Movement type 601 (hope this is the movement type which is used when PGI for this Sales order is done)
    Please revert if it helped.

  • DOC Splitting in New GL and Profit center accounting activation

    Dear All,
    I am in a dilemma regarding the following -
    We are activating doc splitting with profit center and segment as characteristics.
    1) While maintaining Controlling area settings(OKKP) - do we need to activate "Profit Center Accounting" component?
    2) Similarly, in IMG-Controlling - Profit Center Accounting- Basic Settings-Controlling Area Settings-Maintain Controlling Area Settings (0ke5), do we need to maintain any settings?
    I am of the opinion that ,based on the SAP Note - 826357, that we need not activate PC accounting as it is built into New GL Accounting.
    I am also of the opinion, again based on the note, that we can use classic PC accounting, but the note recommends and I quote
    we do not recommend you do this on a long-term basis due to the increased data volume and the increased time and effort required, and in the case of active document splitting, the update response changes.
    But I am not able to come to a conclusion.
    In earlier  implementations, I activated PC accounting in OKK5 in New GL doc split scenario. So keeping that in mind, pl guide me.
    Thanks & regards,
    Gov

    Hi
    Please set the Profit Center Accounting with Controlling Area.

  • Profit Center & Segment: difference?

    Thanks in advance!
    Ferdinando

    Hi
    Segment is a new field in New General Ledger Accounting. From ECC 5.0, PRofit Center Accounting is part of FI and no more part of CO. If new GL Accounting is activated, segments can be used as another reporting entity. Each Profit Center is assigned to a Segment.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to add new fields to Profit center screen (KE51)

    Dear All,
    I have a requirement that to add new fields to the Create Profit center screen KE51.
    I couldn't find the user exits for the same.
    Please help me in this.
    Thanks.
    Ravi

    Hello Ravi,
    I must respcetfully disagree(with other posts) that it is not possible to extend CEPC.  In our system we have added an append with two new fields to CEPC.  Now, that was the easy part. You must also find a way to maintain those fields when creating and changing profit centres.  To do this it was necessary for us to add a button to the create/modify screens.  It was also necessary to find a few enhancement spots in order to make this work(and it still is not perfect).   I am being very vague here because even though it is posible I would not recommend implementing this solution.  It was very time consuming and could be risky if you miss something.  There is a reason why you can find so little information in SDN and other places about how to do this.  Other, including myself have tried but it was painful.
    I know that this does not help very much.

  • NEW GL and PROFIT CENTER REPORT

    Hi,
    In New GL ( ECC6) the profit center is also available in GL itself. Under this situatrion Profit center data is flowing to Controlling.
    Previousl we take Profit center report from 8 series Library and use it for report painter.
    Now what is the library to be used for report painter for generating Profit center reports with drill down functionality like Cost center report from COntolling module.
    Is it necessary that we have configure in CO module lo to get the Profit center so that we can generate the Profit center report more user friendly reports.
    What is the route to be followed to enable the users to check ther B/S on Profit center.
    Appreciate your early response please

  • New GL and Profit center settings

    hi,
    i've already tried to find out this on other thread, but with no reply -
    so i am asking again -
    does anyone know the correct connection/explanation for the issue below?
    "2) Profit Center Integration - With the new GL, Profit Center Accounting is an integrated element of the reporting ledgers. No need for a fully independent PCA implementation."
    if a customer is not implementing PCA and indicator in CO Area (OKKP) is not set for PCs, the system still validates PCA because it seems that a year entries with PCA connections in CO area are created by default - entries in table V_TKA00_PC; and "ignoring" Profit center inactive indicator settings within the CO area
    ie. cost centers need assignment to PC .. and revenue postings are done to cc as statistical not actual ...
    this is happening in sap ecc 5.0 and I would like to verify is this a rule or there is a bug?
    thanks in advance
    d.

    hi Kyle,
    thanks for the effort, but it wasn't the thing i asked for ...
    what i would like to find out is:
    if CO area settings are set w/o profit centers, why the system still demands profit center assignment with cost center master data (ie.)
    well, i can always turn off the message, but this isn't the solution i want to use ...
    i will rather open one PC (along with dummy, of course) even though those are not used for the customer ... although, this will not solve statistical posting to cc with cost element category 11 ...

  • Authorization to new hierarchy node (Profit center) in 3.5 Transaction code

    Dear Colleagues,
    I have an autorization problem that I wish you can help me with.
    I have a (3.5) profit center hierarcy with authorizations on each node. These were made a long time ago by another consultant. Suddenly we have an additional node in the hierarchy (a new region). How do I give authorizations for this new node? Which transaction codes do I use, and how? I am a little bit familiar with PFCG, and have just briefly seen RSSM and SU01. But I can't see where I add authorization functionality yo the new node, and then give it to the user.
    Will sign points!
    Regards Silje

    Look in RSSM to find out what your authorization object is for Profit Center.
    Then lookup the roles that use this Profit Center authorization object -- Not sure how to do this because I usually know the roles I create!  Ask the security or basis team for help if you can't find them.
    Look at those roles and get an idea of how they are used ... In some cases you can group together values and use a wildcard to select a whole group.  Such as, if I have profit centers ABC, ACD, ADE and BAC, I can select the group A* to only allow access to the profit centers starting with A.  This person will not have access to the BAC profit center.
    So, try to figure out how the other consultant assigned the profit centers, then add your new one in in the same way.

  • New SAP-BI Architecture on top of SEM-BCS/BPS

    Hello - my company currently has SEM-BCS/BPS up and running within SAP-BI for about 4 years now.  We are now going to build additional architecture in SAP-BI.  For instance, we are developing a FI-GL Cube, a SD Cube, and a PS Cube (i.e. along with the corresponding DSO's and DataSources).  My concern is will this have a negative impact on our already established SEM-BCS/BPS platform?

    Of course, if with setting up the new applications you use the same infoobjects that were already used (adding master data or even change their properties), you'll certainly interfere with the old apps.
