Plant and cost center.

Can any body tell me where i can see that a plant is mapped with cost center

Hello,
Cost Centers are NOT assigned to Plants. (They are independent of plant).
Just for your information, plants are part of MM organization structure where as Cost centres are part of Controlling (CO-CCA).
Cost centers have a time frame where as plants no time frame.

Plant and Cost Center are not displaying in FI doc. for asset scrap ABAVN.

Hi All,
When we do asset retirement by Scraping using Transaction Code ABAVN, Plant and Cost center are not appearing in the FI document. But, in the master data the Plant and Cost center are assigned for the particular Asset.
When I see the FI document display, the fields Cost Center and Plant are blank. Business Area and Profit Center fields are getting updated.
Can any one help me how to get this Plant and Cost Center in the posted document. Is there any OSS notes for this. I am using ECC 6.0 version.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Rajesh

The systemtakes not the cost center from the asset you have to assign it in OKB9 or to fill in during this posting:
Steps
Click on Simulate, than you see the posting screen:
Click on the line (pk 40)
Click on Goto and Additional account assignment and fill in the cost center whatu2019s in the master record of the asset and post
An other option is to make a substitution to get this information

ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST Plant and Cost Center Validation Isuue

Hi Friends,
                  I have a requirement to validate ME21N PO creation with Account assignment 'K'. In our Business Process, we have 2 plants lets say 3000 and 5000. Plant 3000 is linked to Business Area say 4000 and Plant 5000 is linked to Business Area 9000. Now we have unique cost center assignment in both Business areas.
My requirement is when i enter wrong cost center then system has to validate it with plant and has to pop up error message in PO creation. With BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST, i am able to populate the error message when i enter wrong cost center but i can save the PO which is wrong.
Please help me on this issue.
I have written in my logic in BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST -> PROCESS_ACCOUNT.
Thanks,

Control G/L account and Cost Center for movement type 251

Dear Friends,
I would like to use mov. type 251 for GI for sale and like to control over G/L account and Cost center.
The G/L account is by default from the valuation class of the the material and if the user will enter wrong G/L
we had done the customising in OMJJ movement type 251 - Account grouping - Unchecked the check box of column
"Check account assignment" - Impact is " the system always uses the G/L accounts or account assignments determined automatically"
I also made default cost center for G/L account and plant wise through OKB9.
Now I would like to suppress/dispaly the G/L account and cost center - for same I had done Setting in Entry control menu of OMJJ for 251 of field Account control - Value - "-" field is suppressed. But it is not working.
Please advise to solve this situation.
Thanks & Regards
Rajan

Dear Rajan
Yes, I have checked in MB1A earlier. We have separate node for Field seletion layout for Enjoy transaction MIGO for mvt type in which the G/L account (KONTO) an Cost center (KOSTL) have only optional or required entry selection.

Functionality of Profit Center and Cost Center

Hi,
I am unable to understand the functionality of Profit center and cost center, I know that cost center represents area within an organization for which you will like to see the expenses for a particular time period. for example in an organisation we have three cos centers Accounts, HR and Admin. whenever you post an accounting document in FI you will specify the cost center to which the expense relates. but in some cases when you post an expense and give the relative cost center the profit center is also driven by the system. why is this behavior? i mean i have posted an expense not an income then why is system driving the profit center as well?
Profit centers are used if you want to see the profit of different area of your organisation. in what kind of postings we use profit center? and if we could use profit center to draw income and loss for a specific area why do we need segment reporting? and what is the difference between Segment and Business area. what i understood from their definition is that they are both same and use for same purpose.
I am totally lost in these concepts. please some one help me out with an example. i am stuck at this point. some one please clarify my concept of Profit Center, Cost Center, Segments and business area please.

Hi,
Cost center & Profit Center are organizational units within the enterprise structure , created for better internal control.
As the name suggests Cost Center is the lowest level of the organizational unit representing a defined location of cost incurrence or otherwise to which you can meaningfully assign the cost(both direct & Indirect).
Profit Center is an organizational unit in accounting ,where management would require to see the profitability & fix the responsibility. It may be each plant/division of the company .
If you consider the Plant is the Profit center, you can take the various deptts in the Plant as cost centers. you can draw a balance sheet & profit & loss account statement at profit center level but this will be for your internal use.From this you can know the ROI on particular area. Profit centers are assigned inside the cost center so when you update cost center, profit centers are updated automatically.
Where as Segments are used for legal reporting of your accounting standard as per IFRS. Both Business Area & Segments are more or less same with some technical difference.
Business area is a free organizational unit. It can be derived through cost center or can be entered manually.
But segment is a dependent organizational unit. It is defined & attached inside the profit center master data. It can’t be entered manually.
SAP suggest to use the Segment concept.
Thanks & regards

Link between Plant and Profit Center

Hi,
Can any one let me know how to derive profit center for a plant or where this info is stored.
thanks,
preetham s

Hi
There is no direct relationship between a plant and profit center. Based on your configuration in the system, however, you can have various relationships. For eg, if your plant is one valuation arrea, there is a relationship for various cost center and cost elements at the valuation area level in T Code OKB9. In such a case, every valuation area relates to a plant and profit center derives the data for a plant from the cost center and cost element combination. Another way could be through the material master, where, for every plant view, you can assign a profit center. Another way of looking things could be a scenario, where every plant is also a profit center. In such a scenario, in EEC 6.0, you can draw Financial Statements also at Profit center level.
Thanks & Best Regards

Plant and profit center

Dear CO Gurus,
I have a scenario as described below.
The semifinished material is manufactured in first work center/cost center. The Finished product is produced in second
work center/cost center and consumes the semifinished product manufactured in the first cost center.
The same semifinished material also sold directly to customer from the same plant. Now both the cost centers are under one plant. Is it possible to have separate cost and revenue reports for this two materials ( semifinished and finished product), two cost centers.
Or is it necessary to divide the single plant having this two cost centers into two individual plants. If we split the plant into two, then the semifinished material will be issued to finished product as a stock transfer from plant 1 to plant 2. Customer do not want to do every time stock transfer orders.
So is it possible to have single plant and 2 different cost center for the semifinished and finished product manufacturing .And can we take separate cost and revenue reports without splitting the plants.
Thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi,
You have to split your issue into two parts i.e one is workcenter/cost center combination to capture activities costs and other one is Plant and profit center combination to have report.
U can have different cost centers for both semi finished and finished products to calculate the activity types in the same plant. U define separately the activity cost for each cost center and activity type and assign the same in the respective workcenters of the products.
If each plant is created as a profit center, one option is to assign the same profit center for both the products and taking the report on profit center with material as a sort field, which will give the desired report.
Another option is to create two different profit centers for these products and assign in the material master for material and plant combination as Semi Finished and Finished goods are going to be different material codes.

PO reporting that can capture PO number, PO value and cost center

Dear SAP expert and gurus,
Would like to seek for your professional advise and consult on which report in MM that can capture the PO number, PO value and cost center.
Kindly advise.
Thank you
Regards
Leonard Tan

ME80FN is a good report that captured the PO number and amount. However, the cost center is not being captured here. is there any suggestion?
ME2K is not an ideal report to user cause, user requires the data to be shown in one line instead of 2 to 3 line.
Is there any report like ME80FN can be captured PO number, PO value and Cost Center.
Thank you

AP invoice with different tax rate and cost center?

Dear all,
We are just upgrade from 11i to R12.1.3. Before in 11i, we can change distribution account in AP invoice distribution line if the type is "Tax". However, after updated to R12, we define tax code (e.g. P1 for particular account combination), so once user selects tax code "P1" and invoice will automatic creates tax line for such invoice but the user cannot change distribution account anymore. Because in 11i, user will change the distribution account (cost center segment) but now in R12 user cannot change it.
The only work around is defining different tax code for different cost center.
For example: P1-0001 => 01.0000.999999.00001
P2-0001 => 01.0000.999999.00002
We have hundred of tax code and cost center combination.
Any other work around for this? or anyone encounter the same problem?
Please advice.
Thanks.

Let me explain more in details:
1) The cost centre will will more. 2 cost centres just a simple example.
For now, we have 5 cost centres for each of the tax rate. For the work around now, I need to define 5 tax codes for the same tax rate for different distribution combinations:
Quote
Tax Code ==>Tax Rate ==> AP Distribution Combination
A1-3500 ==> 10% ==>001.9999999.3500.00
A1-3600 ==> 10%==> 001.9999999.3600.00
A1-3700 ==> 10%==> 001.9999999.3700.00
A1-3800 ==> 10%==> 001.9999999.3800.00
A1-3900 ==> 10%==> 001.9999999.3900.00
2) The driving factor would be 100% percent.
Please kindly advice.
Many thanks.

GL account and cost center field appearing for Goods issue movt type 201

Hi SAP Gurus
We are trying to post goods issue in ecc6 . The problem is that the GL Account and cost center fields are available fields .The cost center field is logical but why the GL account field is avaiable .
How we can grey out the same field as it is going to be picked up from the valuation class setting in GBB - VBR ? Any ideas
Regards
Hitesh

Hi Ravi
You think that its ok we have to input the cost center .
But if you allow the users to input the GL then you are overriding the whole purpose of defining the valuation class and offsetting entries ? What is your opinion ?When you input the material in the goods issue screen the offsetting entry needs to be picked from the GBB -VBR .Although even if you do not enter the GL the system posts the Godds issue document .But from the control perspective this needs to be suppressed .
What do you think ?
I have also posted the same in Logistics forum .
Once again many thanks for your help .In case you find some solution this would be of great help

Internal order and Cost center

hi guys
can anyone please explain me why do we have cost centers and internal orders?
If we can track cost to cost center then why do we need internal orders?
please give some detailed explanation.
thanks

when you are posting a document and if the g/l is created as a cost element then
you have to either assign a cost center, profit center, internal order etc
so when you are posting an expense and if its for that project you assign the
internal order and when the project is finished you can settle it to a cost center.
If we can assign both internal order and cost center i dont think so but not very
sure. Best way to learn these things i would recommend is try it in test system
that way you will understand better about the whole flow and it will stick in your
mind.

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.
