OKB9 - default cost centers by profit centers

Hi,
I am trying to use the drill down report KKO0-KKO6 to create a report that will show for each material the costs by cost components and then the actual quantity produced (and I will then add some formula column to multiply the quantity by each cost comp.)
Al is going smotth, but one problem - how do I get the actual quantity? I tried the output qty and it shows zero for all materials. Anyone knows how to do this?
Thanks,
Yoel.

Hi
I selected the Key Figure "Output Qty" in Columns and choose Value Type = 04 as the Char...
With this, I was able to achieve the Output Qty in report
Execute KKRV before executing the report from KKO0 for any period.. Then check the result

Hi,
You can use OKB9, here mainatin Default Cost Centers for the Cost Elements.
Also check in SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Account Assignment > Maintain Account Assignment Categories > For Account Assignment Category (For e.g. "K" - Cost Center), in detailed screen, "Derive acct. assgt." should be active.

How to Default Cost Center During Goods Issue (tcode: MB1A) To Prod Order

Dear Experts,
How to default the Cost Center/ Profit Center during goods movement posting?
Currently, for Goods Issue transaction, the cost center show blank. Even i have default C.Center in cost element (OKB9)
Where to link Cost center/ Profit Center to MM module?
Need your help.
Thanks,
Kiran D

a. If you want to default a cost center to the transaction then use substitution. Give the default profit center in the cost center. so profit center will also get defaulted.
b. if you want to default the GL account then configure it in OBYC, then use OKB9 to give the default cost center and profit center.

FX Revaluation with default Cost Object Assignment

Hello,
When we run the FX revaluation program FAGL_FC_Val, SAP books one side to
the balance sheet account and the other side to the P&L account for
unrealized FX Loss/Gain. Since this account is also created as a cost
element, it requires a cost object. However, FX revaluation program posts
the entry without a cost object. We have tcode OKB9 - Default Cost Center
Assignment but SAP does not take values from it.
We are on ECC 6.0
Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.
sumit

Hi,
if the P&L account for unrealized FX Loss/gain is created as cost element a posting can only take place if there is a cost object assigned.
You wrote "However, FX revaluation program posts the entry without a cost object" but thats not possible. There must be a cost object, maybe not the one you are expecting...
Maybe the OKB9 entry is maintained for comp. code A the FX valuation is done for comp. code B? Maybe there is a substituion rule created that changes the OKB9 default cost object?
Please check, and come back.
best regards, Christian

Cost Centers and Profit centers default

Hi,
Apart from OKB9 settings where else we can design for default cost and profit centers.
thanks

Hi,
For cost centres you can set the default directly in cost element master data (KA02). Regarding profit centre, you can use 3KEH transaction.

Scrap Sales GL , which type of cost centers need to assign in OKB9

Dear Seniors,
G L account : Scrap Sales:
For this GL a/c , cost element created with Cost element category u201C11u201D (Revenues).
Now in OKB9   i want to make assignments:
With each b.area and cost centers.
Now my doubt is :
In OKB9 which type of cost center I need to assign from the below.
1.Cost center should be with
Cost cntr category u201CFu201D (Production)
Or
2.Cost center category u201DVu201D (Sales)
and another doubts is , in Cost center -control tab: Actual revenues check box, should i select or not in any case.
Please clarify my doubt.
Thanks in Adv

Hi,
As scrap sales are revenue to the company, undernoted things to be noted here :
1. The cost element category is V - Sales and the control indicator actual revenues box to be unticked.
     The posting will be statistical for revenue elements.
2. The revenue recognition has to be equally done in VKOA for the account assignment of this account.
3. You can create a seperate order type for scrap sales and a sales pricing procedure in SD.
4. Check whether the scraps are defined to capture Tax Collected at Source, if so, you have to define
     condition types for them too.
5. If the material itself is defined as scrap material then in Material master the Profit Center would have
     been assigned and to capture the revenue assign the scrap sales revenue in VKOA.

Remove Dummy cost centers from OKB9

Hi,
Does anybody know if removing dummy cost centers from OKB9 can generate huge impact ?
Which examples of issues can I have in case I remove them?
Any help is welcome. Regards,
Roger

Automatic assignment occurs during postings in external accounting (within the FI, MM, or SD components) if you did not enter a CO account assignment object (cost center, order, or project) for a cost accounting relevant posting.
Given the above quotes from SAP. We need to analyse why the default cost center was givenin OKB9 at the first instance. If it really makes sense to have the default cost center, then it is better. If default cost center is causing lot of work at the period end, then it may better to take it off. This way you can ensure that cost are booked in the right cost center at the first time of recording.
The first impact will be, the system will not let you post the transaction as before, since a cost object is mandatory for flow of FI documents to CO.

Usage of Cost Centers, Profit Centers and Internal Orders

Hello everyone,
i have perhaps for some of you a simple question but it bothers me alot.
Imagine we are using Cost centers and Internal Orders. For them we create statistical key figures using transaction KB31N.
Now we are installing SAP BI and want to create a report which would be generated acording to cost centers but with statistical key figures.
The question would be how to make a connection between cost centers orders and those stat.key.figs?
In our case the economists say that we are using this kind of scenario:
Dist.chanel ->
Sender: Cost center, Cost element
Receiver: Int.Order
and Stat key fig.
This is the only place where we have a connection between thos objects. Is there other way how to connect them. perhaps using profit centers?
If somebody didnt understand it, maybe ill try to explain it a bit better

Hi Laurynas,
Pls try to understand the concept as explained hereunder...
Cost Element:
Primary Cost Element : Replication of GL to bring costs into CO module when they are posted in FI
                                   module
Secondary Cost Elements: Carriers of costs between two Cost Objects (when we want to transfer the
                                        cost from Cost Centers to Internal Orders, vice versa and more, we create
                                        Secondary Cost Elements to carry the costs and transfer them to the
                                        reciever objects from sender objects)
Cost Center: It is a Cost Object, maintained on long-term basis, where we can capture the costs (Ex:
                    Marketing Cost Center)
Internal Order: It is also a Cost Object, maintained on shor-term basis, where we can capture the costs
                     (Ex: Internal Order for Special Marketing Campaign). Ultimately, whatever the costs
                      posted to this Internal Order, will get settled to Marketing Cost Center.
Staitistical Key Figure: It is used as a basis for allocation of certain expenses (Simple example would
                                  be, Total rent paid for office is $100000 per month. This cost has to go to
                                  different Cost Centers like Finance and Accounts, Marketing, Purchase Dept
                                  etc on the basis of "Area Occupied". So, We will define "Area Occupied" as a
                                  Statistical Key Figure in our system.
                                 Now, when the Rent amount is posted in FI, it wil reach a Virtual Cost Center
                                 (An "Allocation Cost Center" with name "Rent" to be created under your
                                 Controlling Area) "Rent". From there, it has to reach the other Cost Centers (lie
                                 F&A etc as explained above) on the basis of Area Occupied (SKF Created
                                 for "area occupied")
For this, you need enter the Area Occupied values (Ex:Sq Ft) in KB31N and you need to create an Allocation Cycle (Distribution / Assessment) where in you will select "Area Occupied" (SKF) as your Receiver Tracing Factor.
I hope I am clear, don't hesitate to revert back for more explanation...

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.

WIP assets has wrong Cost Centers/Profit Centers

Hi Experts,
There are several WIP (AuC) assets created after releasing the WBS Elements.
Ideally the WIP assets should have the Cost Center/Profit Center similar to the ones in the WBS Elements.
However the assets have different CC/PC than the WBS Elements.
We cannot change the Cost centers in asset master manually as there are postings done and depreciation ran on these assets.
Please suggest if we need to change the Cost Centers in all the assets or is there any other solution to this issue??
Thanks in advance

Hello Experts,
Please share your suggestions on the above issue...

Profit centers and cost centers - language maintenance

Hi!
We have an SAP environment running where three countries use local languages and the fourth one uses English, also most people working centrally with the system uses English. Also the hierarchies are exported to BI from the English language version of the system. Thus we have a need to maintain names of hieararchy nodes and profit centers/cost centers in several languages.
Is there any easier way to do this than logging in to all relevant language versions (usually one local and English) to maintain these? Is there some setting that makes it enough to maintain in for instance the English version and it updates all the other languages?
Best regards,
Jan Pettersson

Not really the answer I was hoping for
it's business side users in each country maintianing the hieararchies and PC/CC... so LSMWs and imports and exports is unfortuntantely not the best of options.
Hoping for someone else with a similar situation with additonal ideas.

Cost Centers & Profit Centers in PM Order Settlements

Dear All,
Can anyone please explain me the exact use of following Fields in the PM Order?
Additional Data Tab    -     Responsible CCt , Profit Center , Object Class
Location Tab             -   Account Assignment u2013 Cost Center
Settlement Rule         - Settlement Receiver (When category is CTR-Cost Center)
Also would appreciate if the explanation can be given on the impact on above in settling the Orders.
(CAPEX Orders as well as OPEX Orders)
Thanks & Regards,
Thushantha

Hi,
Additional Data Tab
Responsible Cost Center: - The responsible cost center is the responsible area for authorization check on internal orders.
This does not have to be the cost center to which the order settles its costs.
(ex The cost center "site office" is the responsible cost center).
Profit Center:- Operating results for profit centers can be analyzed using either the
cost of sales approach or the period accounting approach.
By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your profit
centers for use as investment centers.
Location Tab
Cost Center:- which belongs to Equipment Master or Functional Location. This cost will be comes under Account Assignment Category
Settlement Reveiver:- Its the set of cost elements which receives the Actual cost from the work order & transfers to the cost center.
