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,

Delete Transactional data for one (1) Cost element

Hi All.
How to Delete Transactional data for one (1) Cost element?
i know T code OKC3 but it is saying I can delete only at controlling area level,
I want to delete only data (Transactional) for one cost element .
Please let me know, Thank you ,
Paartha,

it is not possible to delete the data, if u want u can repost from one cost element to the another cost element if u are feeling the entry was posted to wrong cost element.
Otherwise if u want restrict the transactions further to that cost element, u can restrict through cost elmenet master where in u can select the direct postings and secondary postings etc.,

Cost element description now showing in Report painter

Hi,
I selected to display KEY and DESCRIPTION in the report layout settings for a report painter however the report is displaying only the cost element number and not the description in the rows.
In this case, how to display the cost element description in the report painter rows?

Hi,
ensure that KEY + DESCRIPTION is selected in the layout settings. Description will only appear if it is maintained in the logon-language (means if your logon language is EN but cost element texts are not maintained in EN no descripiton can be seen).

Cost Elements and COPA Value Fields

Hi All,
Should all the cost elements created in CO be assigned to value fields in Costing Based COPA?
I am a bit confused . . .
Regards,
Ravi Kumar

Hi ravi,
Basically fist you understood, how the values are flowing into the CO-PA. ie When ever billing document generated co-pa document generates automatically. based on your condition type and account keys.
While defining pricing procedure, they mapped the conditon type against releavant account key.
Based on the releavant account key they assigned releavant cost element under VKOA.
Against these condtion types they assgined value filed under KE4I in co-pa.
This is the way system will capture cost elemetns under copa. KIndly revert in case any issue.

Hierarchy data(Profit center Hierarchy,Cost element)

Hi every one,
How can i load the hierachy data from R3 to BW?
Please search the forum
Edited by: Pravender on Jul 13, 2010 6:56 PM

Hello Prudhvi,
In SAP R/3, Tcode RSA5. Find appropriate Hierarchy Datasource for Profit center, cost center .
Activate the data source. Once activated you can see this datasource in RSA6 (in Source system itself). There in RSA6 you will be able to test run this data source(also you will be able to see the data for this test run). If you want you can also test this data source in RSA3 also.
Now in BW system: Replicate this data source. create mappings(update rules etc) between this Hierarchy data source and the Hierarchy infoobject.
Now you can create InfoPackage for this Datasource and Schedule it to load Hierarchy data in BW
Hope this helps.

GR55 - report generates no data for some of the cost elements

Hi
When executing GR55 for Monthly cost center analysis (target currency), the report generated has values for all the cost elements in the report. However, few cost elements do not show amounts. The amount columns show a ××××.
Please suggest on why the system is not displaying the values only for few cost elements when running GR55 for report group CCPA (Cost center Actual vs Plan).
Thanks
Neetar

Dear Neeta,
Every customized report generated in Report painter will have a base as Form, were you do your customizing to get the report.
So might be in some places the value key figure would have not properly customized.
Check the report in T.Code GRR3 and see the places where you get XXXX.
Hope it clarifies your doubt.
Thanks and regards

GL account wrongly maintained as cost element

Hi,
One GL account which would allow to post WIP value is wrongly assigned as Cost Element and during settlement through KO88 vlaue is not being allowed to post due to cost element gl "G/L account 711005 cannot be created as a cost element". Even after removing cost element category from table CSKB it is still not allow to post. There is no balance exist in GL account and debit and credit figure is equal. This GL account is very vital and we have to post this GL account through settlement without assigining new gl account against this WIP.
Kindly need any suggestion..
Best Regards,
Samrat Roy

Hi Samrat,
As per my understanding you would like to delete the cost element for the WIP GL Account. and you said that the debits and credits for this GL Account are same. If there is atransaction data exists, you could not able to delete the cost element.
for this first you should delete the transaction data. i.e., need to delete the all the CO documents for that cost element. for this there is a program to delete the CO documents i.e., RKACOR20. once you delete the CO documents, then you can able to delete the cost element for the specified GL Account. then you can run the WIP without interruption.
Thanks & Regards,

Cost center & cost element

Hi Experts,
Can anybody please tell me,
What is difference between cost center and cost element.
what is exact role of both.

Hi,
Cost Center
Definition
External object (object type K) from Controlling which represents a clear origin of costs.
If you implement the Controlling component, you can find more information in SAP Library under Cost Center (Financials u2192 Controlling u2192 Cost Center Accounting u2192 Master Data in Cost Center Accounting (CO-OM-CCA) u2192 Cost Center)
and
Cost Center Accounting (Financials u2192 Controlling u2192 Cost Element Accounting).
Use
By assigning cost centers to organizational objects, you determine where costs incurred by the object are to be charged. The inheritance principle applies: If an organizational object is not assigned a cost center, the cost center assigned to the superior object applies.
An organizational object may also be assigned more than one cost center. For more information, see Cost Distribution (infotype 1018).
Integration
A cost center can be related to the following organizational objects:
·        an organizational unit via relationship A 011 (Cost center assignment)
·        a position via relationship A 011 (Cost center assignment)
·        a work center via relationship A 011 (Cost center assignment)
Cost Elements
Definition
Cost elements classify an organizationu2019s valuated consumption of production factors within a controlling area. A cost element corresponds to a cost-relevant item in the chart of accounts.
Structure
We distinguish between primary cost and revenue elements and secondary cost elements.
Primary Cost/Revenue Elements
A primary cost or revenue element is a cost or revenue-relevant item in the chart of accounts, for which a corresponding general ledger (G/L) account exists in Financial Accounting (FI). You can only create the cost or revenue element if you have first defined it as a G/L account in the chart of accounts and created it as an account in Financial Accounting. The SAP System checks whether a corresponding account exists in Financial Accounting.
Examples of primary cost elements include:
· Material costs
· Personnel costs
· Energy costs
Secondary Cost Elements
Secondary cost elements can only be created and administrated in cost accounting (CO). They portray internal value flows, such as those found in internal activity allocation, overhead calculations and settlement transactions.
When you create a secondary cost element, the SAP System checks whether a corresponding account already exists in Financial Accounting. If one exists, you can not create the secondary cost element in cost accounting.
Examples of secondary cost elements include:
· Assessment cost elements
· Cost elements for Internal Activity Allocation
· Cost elements for Order Settlement
Integration
Cost elements in Controlling (CO) are closely related to the general ledger accounts used in Financial Accounting (FI). This is because the SAP System is structured as an Integrated Accounting System:
Cost elements document which costs (differentiated by category) are incurred within a settlement period, and in which amount. They provide information concerning the value flow and the value consumption within the organization. Cost Element Accounting and Cost Center Accounting/Internal Orders are closely linked in the SAP System. Each posting to an account that is also a cost element, is assigned either to a cost center or order. This ensures that at period-end the data is subdivided by cost elements and cost centers/internal orders for analysis purposes. The following section describes how you can subdivide and characterize cost elements in the SAP System.
Cost element characteristics depend on the controlling area and the allocation methods used in your organization.
Hope this helps clarifying your doubt about cost center & cost element.

Tejas

Values not populated in S_ALR_87012806 for a specific cost element

Hi all,
Postings made to specific cost element are not populated in report S_ALR_ 87012806. Can anyone throw some light on this?
Thanks
Shravan

Hi Krishna
I dont think "Cost Accounting > LIne Item" would work for Master Data
You can use exit COOPA_01 (SMOD) > Include ZXAUFU08 (Part of EXIT_SAPLKOAU_002)... I have used this for similar purposes in the past

Default Cost element pick up despite there is no setting in config.defined

Hi,
During external services(control key PM03), system picks up default cost element in maintenance order. Irony is that I have set no default cost element in "External procurement service in Config". I have also checked there is no default user data, despite this default cost element system picks up.
Please suggest me what to do.
Thanks & Regards
D.Singh

Once you enter the control key PM03, you will get pop up for maintaining material group. If you have defined the material group in config, cost element will be picked up from that.
Cost element will be picked up from the Material group which you mentioned in Order or in config.

Cost elements with incorrect functional area

Hello,
We have two cost elements 9xxxx1 and 9xxxx2with no functional area assignment in the master data. But these cost elements are posted with a debit to the 5000 functional area when they are posted to a production order. Request help on analyzing from where the assignment to this functional area 5000 are coming from.
Thank you

hi..
Goto CO03 (Prod Ord display) select GOTO top of the screen and select cost > analysis. It will display your element booked in the order. Double click on Element and analyse.

COPA Report- Cost Elements

Hi All,
We have done the required configuration for COPA. We have created a COPA (Costing Based) report as well. The client wants this COPA report to be run for the first quarter of 2008 i.e. April 2008 to June 2008.
However, discount values for the said period are not flowing to this report.
Verification reveals that, no cost element is created for "Discount Given" GL Account. Hence, only revenues, from billing document, are being posted to CO area. The same values are updated in COPA also.
As per my knowledge, unless Cost Elements are created values won't flow to CO and COPA.
Can anybody help me to overcome the problem. . . ?? i.e. How to get the values in COPA report for the said period . . .
Thanks in advance . . .
Regards,
Ravi Kumar

Hi
Your understanding is perfect we need a cost element for transfering the data to CO and COPA.For flow of values to COPA from SD we need to make the following config.
Create the GL account with cost element category 11 or12
Map the discount condition type to COPA value field.
Also it is very diffucult to identify the discount region wise customer wise etc.Since it is posted to one GL account.
To overcome come this issue I guess the only option is to cancel the billing documents,maintain the config and the again create the billing documents.As you said the volume of transactions are high you can consider using LSMW for cancelling and recreating the billing documents.

Sandy.

Step2 : Save and Book the Order.
Step3 : Pick Release the Order.
Step4 : Go To " View My Requests".
Step5 : Select the Request Id " Pick Slip Report "
Step6 : Click on Output.
Result " No Data Found.
Thanks in Advance
SYR

Hi SYR,
Pick Slip report gives you out put as NO DATA FOUND, is basically, bcos there has not been any picking of the item, reason may be,
1. Qty avaialble wont be reservable and transactable
Check in Inventory> On handqty > click availibility tab
And see whether the item is available to transact & reserve.
If you have enought qty thn you shld be able to pick release tht item.
2. Check which sub inventory are you using while pick release, is it the same as where the item is kept.
Try this out.
This may help.
Thanks
Manoj
