PLANT AS A COST CENTER

hi
we are using plant as a cost center and profit center, i want to know what are costs we will be able to collect on the cost centers and profit centers. will i be able to tract material costs , i.e materials costs for maintaienace order

Hi
Can you further elaborate on this point? The mapping of Plants to Cost Centers is 1:1. Again is the Cost Center hierarchy and Profit Center hierarchy are same?
Profit centers are basically statistical. Is the business requirement to collect at Cost center level?
Thanks

Cost Center and Plant

Hi Guys,
Is there any R/3 table that gives relations between Cost Center and Plants?
Thanks

The plant is an operating area or branch within a company and is assigned to a single company code. A company code can have several plants.
The plant plays an important role in the following areas: a) Material valuation
b) Inventory management c) MRP d) Production e) Costing (material prices valuation)
A Cost center is an organizational unit within a Controlling area that represents a defined location to identify where a cost is being incurred. or an area of Responsibility for costs
If you happen to run transaction KSB1 for a cost center, where plant field is not blank, you may find some material transaction. These are trasnactions which could involve both plant and a cost center.

Mapping of Plant to Cost Center

Is there any direct mapping of plant to the cost center?
If so, pls. provide the transaction code through which we can check the same.
Also provide the table, if any.

Hi,
If you are talking about getting the Default Account Assignment (Cost Center) for a Cost Element as per Plant (Valuation Area) then go to OKB9 and maintain the GL A/c with default Cost Center keeping value as "1" i.e. Valuation area is mandatory in the column of mandatory fields of Account Assignment.

Account/Cost Center Determination (OKB9) for same plant & 2 cost centers.

Hi,
I faced a weird situation My situation is i have the same plant but 2 different profit center's & 2 different cost center's . My OKB9 cost element is configured through "Plant/Valuation Area (1)".
Previously when ever we used this "Plant/valuation Area" determination we used to give plant and corresponding cost center and left other fields like Business Area, Order and profit center blank. see below thing for clear idea
Plant A - Cost Center A
Plant B - Cost Center B
Now with this weird situation, i am not sure whether we can configure OKB9 as below
Plant A - Cost Center A - Profit Center A
Plant A - Cost Center B - Profit Center B
If we can do as above, will their be any implications.
could anyone help me out of this situation.
Thanks
Shriya

HI
No complications for this u can assign the CCtrs to Profit Centres.

KI222 - Inappropriate Cost Center Not Valid Error Message

Iu2019m having a problem goods issuing material to a cost center (movement type 201) via a call of the BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE BAPI (ECC 6.0). I can post a specific material / plant / storage location / cost center combination without issue via MB1A but when attempting to call the BAPI processing the exact same data, I get the error message KI222: Cost center aaaa/ccccc does not exist on 05/14/2009. (where aaaa = the appropriate controlling area and ccccc = the cost center). Iu2019ve checked the validity dates on the cost center via KS03 and all looks fine (the cost center is valid until 12/31/9999). The cost center is valid on the posting and entry date I'm passing in the BAPI header.
Any ideas what I may be doing wrong or if thereu2019s some field Iu2019m not appropriately selecting / flagging in the BAPI. Iu2019m using the BAPI successfully for several other movement types (701, 702, 551, 552).
Thanks,
Randy

Hello,
Go to OKKS and set your controlling are correct.
Then go to KS03
See the from validity. If there from date is in past then there should not be any issue.
Make sure that your entry is using current date not old dates in the data using BAPI
You can switch off the message for the time being.
Go to OBA5 and application area KI and message number 222.
Switch off the message for online and batch entries.
This is only for temporary purpose till you pass on your BAPI. But this is not suggest to do it in production system, as this is deviating from standard functionality.
If the message is not available in OBA5, first go to OBMSG transaction code add the message there to the application area (tick switch off message check box) and then come to OBA5 to switch off the message.
Regards,
Ravi

QM PLant settings - Cost center

HI QM Gurus,
In the inspection lot completion tab for QM Plant settings in customization
we have two feilds
Cost Center - Scrap and Destruction
What is the significance of Cost center feilds in QM Plant settings?
What will happen if I do not use any of these feilds?
Are they only for reporting purpose?
I believe for each movement type we define one cost center.
What is the need to define a different cost center for QM.
Kindly give ur comments
Regards
JEEVAN

Hi Jeevan,
You can post quantities of material from an inspection lot to the following destinations:
1. To unrestricted-use stock
2. To scrap
3. To sample usage
4. To blocked stock
5. To new material
6. To sample reserves
7. Return delivery
In system, Each and every movement will be monitored.
If you are collecting costs on manufacturing orders, you can post the scrap costs to a cost center. You cannot settle scrap costs to a cost center if you are using a product cost collector.
**Process Flow**
The planned quantity of the order is 10 units. The yield is 8 pieces and the scrap quantity is 2 pieces.
You change the settlement rule so that 80% of the costs can be settled to the material stock account for that material. You then create a new distribution rule in which the remaining 20% of the costs is settled to a cost center.
The actual costs for the order are USD 2,800. When 8 pieces are delivered to stock, the system charges USD 2,000 to the order.
80% of the total cost is USD 2,240.
20% of the total cost is USD 560.
The order was already credited by USD 2,000 upon delivery. During settlement, the system then settled USD 240 to the material stock account of the material and USD 560 to the cost center.
Thanks,
Rgds...

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

Aditional on me answer.
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

BADI for IW31 which has values of Plant,Fundcenter,cost center

Hi,
My requirement is that While running IW31,if the first four characters of Settlement Rule(Cost Center) and FundsCenter is not equal to Planning Plant then an error message should be raised . Can you suggest any appropriate BADI or User Exit for this?
Path for Funds Center-->Go to>Assignment--->Funds Management
Thanks
K Srinivas

Hi Srinivas,
In order to find Badi or User Exit, you can put a STOP point at class CL_EXITHANDLER and in method GET_INSTANCE, CALL METHOD cl_exithandler=>get_class_name_by_interface and then you can execute the Tcode and then at every click it will stop in debugging & give the name of the Exit or Badi.
Hope it Helps...
