Not able to delete Business Area from Cost Center Master: Msg KS022 & KS370

Hi,
We have a created a cost center with a business area by an oversight
(i.e we are not using  BA) and postings have been done to CC, now we want to
delete the business area from CC master but the system is giving error
KS134 'Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data
already exists)'.
So we tried to change the analysis period and in the new analysis
period (which is mid-year) we deleted the BA and during saving there
are messages KS370 'No fiscal year defined for the analysis period' &
KS022 'No further processing -> contact your system administrator' .
We are using V3 as the fiscal year variant which is non-calendar fiscal
year.
Please let us know how handle this as we need to delete the Business
area from the CC master during mid-year.
Thanks
VS

Hi,
You need to change BA of an already posted against cost center.
There is a consulting note you should take into consideration:
62716 KS020 when changing company code, business area The prerequisites of how the business area might be changed during the fiscal year:
-The change interval is set to period limits
-There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval or afterwards.
-There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost
center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center' - KS02 (for example, by changing the cost center manager).
Nevertheless if there is dependent actual data already posted in the time frame from the change date and all periods forth it is not possible to change the business area. This is bound to consistency reasons as the business area is stored in the CO-documents.
If You need to change the business area in this particular period with actual postings You must cancel all actual documents already posted on the cost center between the date of change and all forthcoming periods.

Waman

  • Field Business Area in cost center cannot be changed

    Hello all,
    we would like to change the "Business Area FS" (OB65) field for our
    company code to required. But if we do that, we have issues with 2 of
    our cost centers (ks02, analysis period 01/01/10-12/31/10) that won't
    allow us to enter a business area.
    We get the following error message:
    NA KS134 Field change Business Area is not possible.
    Diagnosis: To ensure of existing data, you can only change object
    Business Area if no transaction data exists in the change period; that
    is, neither plan data nor actual data has been posted.
    I have checked with our accounting and the cost center report does not
    have any data in actual nor budget.
    Somehow I figured out that we do have an entry in table CEKO for this
    cost center for 2010. (se16n). I did some further research and tried to
    test report RKPLNC18 to delete this entry. But I get the message:
    the deletion could not be carried out. The following plan/actual
    records are available...
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hi
    You can change the business area in cost center by changing the Analysis period. If there's any data exsist it is not allow you to change the business area. If else block or eleate the cost center and create a new one ( even though this might not permitted if  data exsist in related to cost center.

  • Change of Business Area to Cost Center (my first thread , please help)

    Hi Everybody i'm Charmaine Leena Martin freshly certified  FICO consultant , this is my first thread i'm posting, please help me with the same.
    A wrong business area has been assigned to a cost center and postings have taken place in the same.
    while using t-code KS02: change cost center , for rectifying the business area , i get the following error:
    "Field change business area is not possible (transaction data exists)"
    so i've created a new cost center and assigned it the right business
    and using t-code kb61 : i have posted the documents to the new cost center
    at that time system generates a co-document automatically:
    But the accounting document of which transfer postings have taken place still shows old business area and cost center
    Please let me know why is it so ,
    and what has to be done with the CO document that gets posted automatically
    and is there any other way out of changing the business area without creation of new cost center
    Moderator: Please, search before posting

    Hi Leena
    Welcome to SDN
    Do KB11N to post the cost back to the Wrong cost center
    Do an FI Posting again Dr the Correct new cost center and Cr the Old wrong cost center
    This will match both FI and CO

  • How to change Functional area in cost center master

    Dear Guru,
    As required, i have to change the Functional area in cost center master data.
    SAP Warning Message :
    Transaction data exists; note long text
    Note
    A change of the functional area can lead to inconsistencies when reversing documents.
    If documents are reversed after the functional area has been changed, in some cases,
    the reversal document may be posted with the new functional area.
    My question is how to change the new functional area to the old one after reversing documents.
    We aren't using Special Purpose Ledger . Please Help me, thanks.

    Hi
    For the transactions already posted you will not be able to change the Functional Area. Also if those documents are getting reversed now after the change, the reversal document will get posted to the new Functional Area only.
    For all those documents which gets reversed after the change, you need to pass FI journal entry by changing the Functional area in the journal entry and not in the Cost Center Master

  • Report painter- business area and Cost center

    Hi,
    Business consolidation is for more of consolidation purpose and cost center grouping is more for management reporting purpose for cost control purposes.
    Both the organizational units serve for different purposes. Consolidatied business will not have much meaning unless you go with EC-CS.
    Cost Center Groups are much for control purpose and help in managerial reporting.
    Business Units are part of FI Organizational Structure and Cost Centers are part of CO organizational structures.

  • What is the impact of business area and cost center in the sales document

    Hi all
    I have small doubt regarding what is the impact of bussiness area and cost center in the sales document... what is the uses of these (bussiness area, cost center) is help full for sd module
    can any one reply plz....
    Thanking you

    Hi,
    Business Area determines where the revenue should be allocated when you sell a material or a service.
    For eg: If your customer is in say Mumbai and he is ordering for a service in Delhi (say DIAL - Delhi International Airport Limited) then based on the terminology.
    Your customer would belong to B Basis Business Area - WHERE THE REVENUE IS COMING FROM or WHERE YOUR CUSTOMER BELONGS TO (SALES OFFICE).
    Whereas your DIAL sales will belong to A Basis Business Area - WHERE THE REVENUE IS GOING TO.
    Cost Center would determine where your allocate your cost to.
    Say Rounding Off can be used as a cost element, because some sort of revenue is lost when figures are roudned off..
    Hope it clarifies your doubt.
    Reward points if satisfactory

  • Not able to Delete the data from Memory card

    Hi all,
    I have bought a new nokia 3120 classic.it is working fine but recently i have received some data from my friend.
    Then suddenly the problem begins like.. when i take a photo.. i am getting error like the image is not in the format and i am not able to save that.And also, the main problem is I am unable to delete the data from my memory card.
    Every time after deleting i am getting the same data.
    Why this happening..is it because of VIRUS?? If so how to delete the virus from my memory card??
    When i contacted the nokia care people in bangalore they are saying that they can offer the service of formatting the memory card??
    Except that my Phone is working fine..the problem is with Memory card!!!
    Please help me...

    you can actually format your memory card first see if you have such option on your phone to format directly from the phone if that is not possible you can always use a card reader and reformat your card using your pc. just understand that all data from that memory card will be lost unless you do a back up of it. if you do a back up and restore the data to the memory card after reformat you might get the same issue so be careful as to what you will decide to do with the data from the card. once you format your card it should all be good unless the card is corrupted itself which can also happen. but first try with the reformat and see if it works out for you. 
    You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

  • Change business are in cost center

    Hi
    How to change business are in the already created cost center ???? Pls advice
    Thanx

    Hi
    SAP note 62716 covers this process to change BA if data already exists:
    I have copied below in case you dont have access to notes:
    Symptom
    When you attempt to change the company code or the business area in the master record of the cost center, the system displays message KS020 or KS134 because dependent data already exists, or the system displays message KS021 because the change interval is not set to the year limits.
    Enhancement: As of Release 4.6C the report RKACOR06 is enhanced so that you can also change the master data from business processes (CO-ABC, Activity Based Costing) correspondingly.
    Reason and Prerequisites
    For actual postings, the company code is updated in the document. It is therefore not possible to change the company code of the participating account assignment (for example cost center) later on.
    The checks for dependent data, however, are carried out on year level. For this reason, it is not possible to change the company code or the business area during the fiscal year.
    Solution
    Using report RKACOR06, you can also make changes to the company code and the business area in the master record of the cost center during the fiscal year if the following requirements are met:
    1. The change interval is set to period limits
    2. There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval or afterwards.
    3. There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center' - KS02 (for example, by changing the cost center manager).
    If the system contains dependent planning data in a plan integrated version, any respective profit centers and extended general ledgers that exist must be restructured. For profit center accounting, you can use Transaction 1KE0 for this purpose.
    Caution! If you change the company code of a cost center, a reversal of a posting in a different period can no longer be carried out if the cost center is assigned to another company code in the reversal period.
    Report RKACOR06 is contained in the standard system as of Release 3.1I.
    For prior releases, you can download the report from the FTP server sapserv3 from the directory /general/R3server/abap/note.0062716.
    Report RKACOR06 does not generate any change pointers. Thus, if you want to send the change of cost centers via ALE, use Transaction BD16.
    If you cannot change the BA for some other reason, please provide details.
    Regards, Elaine

  • Assign Business Area to cost center

    HI Guru's
    i would like to assign the business area to existing cost center, which is having some posted entries.
    But system throws the below error message
    "For change Business area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
    Pls help me
    Rgds,

    Hi,
    You cannot change buisness area for a cost as this field is for each fiscal year. For example, you can change the field content for a new fiscal year by changing the validity period. Mean splitting the validity period provided there is no transaction data. The data in this field is always time-based.
    This is to for the consistency of data in SAP.
    Please also check out the following link:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/51457143b511d182b30000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
    However, I think you can use substitution rule to subtitute business area in document level for cost center. I am not sure whether this will work.
    Hope this helps.
    Please assign points as a way to say thanks.

  • Change of Business Area in Cost Center

    Hi,
    We want to change the business area for the existing cost center from next fiscal year.
    Suppose i have a cost center 1001ADM with Business area 1000 and validity time is 01.04.2007 to 31.12.2999.
    Now i want to change the business area to 2000 for the existing cost center 1001ADM with effect from 01.04.2008.
    Regards
    Balaji

    Hi,
    Changing the business area is possible.  Go to KS02> Menus> Analysis period --> Give the new analysis period for which you want to change the field business area.
    Now give the new business area.  you will get a message changing this field will take time to check the dependent data.  Give 'Yes'.  It will check all the depending data and then change the field for the new analysis period.
    Good Luck!!!!!
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Hide Controlling Area from Cost center in report

    Hi Experts,
    I have Costcenter as reporting field in BW report. Controlling Area is compunding char for Cost center.
    In the report, it shows both values (cost center and controlling area) when i use cost center in query. foreg. KO01/C123456 as key.
    (KO01 is controlling area and C123456 is Cost center)
    Is there any way to ONLY display Costcenter value in report??
    Thanks in advance.
    -Abhijit

    You can add controlling area IO in the line and hide it (in properties set never display) or you can also insert it in filter with fix value KO01.
    Hope it helps.
