Posting to a profit center on a vendor line item
We want to post to a profit center on a vendor line item for incoming Accounts Payable invoices. When we use posting key 31, the profit center field is not displayed at all. Is there a way to open the field to post to it?
Posting to sub ledger accounts, i.e. vendors and customers cant have a profit or a cost center directly posted to it.
If you want to post to a specif PC or CC in a Vendor or Customer posting you need to do this via a GL account, P&L.
So for a vendor invoice you credit the vendor and debit COGS, and in the COGS account you assign a Cost Center.
If you are using the new GL, the Profit Center will be derived from the postings made to the GL account.
Please note whatever settings you make in terms of FSG and PK, you will never be able to post directly to a PC or CC on a Vendor line item.
Hope this helps.

Profit center updation in vendor line items
Hi,
how to update profit center field in vendor line items. it is displaying in general ledger view, but i can't find it in entry view. i maintain obbh settings also.

Sree
Moderator: Please, search before postingHi ,
It is standard behaviour of the system that only GL line item will have profit center and vendor line item will not have profit center .
In entry view only GL line item should have profit center and in GL view all the line item should have profit center .
If this is happening , then dont panic system is working fine .

Profir Center Update for Vendor Line Item
Hi,
While entering an inter company document, cost center is required field for the expense line item. The system is picking up the profit center based on the cost center. However, while saving the document I am getting a error message that you can not post to profit center XX in company code 2. The profit center is only assigned to company code 1 (KE52) and it is not to be assigned to company code 2. Ideally the vendor line item should be assigned to dummy profit center maintained in config but system is picking the profit center assigned to expense line item. The following entery is being passed and the document type is AB. Document Splitting is active.
Expenses A/c. Dr - company code 1 - PC - XX
To Vendor - company code 2
can anyone help me with the same?Hi,
Validations are in 3 steps (Mostly Inter-company transaction fetch this validation in sequence)
1) Derivation Rule
2) Default
3) Dummy
Option 1:
T-code: 3KEI
setup default profit centre by company code and GL Account
if above does not resolve your issue then also setup option 2
Option 2:
Create substitution rule on document completion level
If G/L account is (B/S) XXXXXX u2013 XXXXXX and company code is 2
then PC = 2
End if
try first in test system

Update Profit Center Field in CO Line item tables
Hi,
We are working on ECC6.0 NewGL with Real-time CO-FI integration for Cross Company Code and Cross Pofit Center.
For those CO internal documents (like activity confirmation at production order) where there is no cross company code or cross profit center postings, no FI document is generated and hence table FAGLFLEXA is not updated. So, we wanted to take data from CO table COEP / COVP for these internal CO documents. However, there is no Profit Center field in CO line item tables COEP / COVP. We don't want to refer to Object Number (OBJNR) of COEP / COVP tables and take profit center from master table of cost centers, IOs etc..,as Profit center in the cost center, IO masters may get changed latter.
I tried to generate a new report through report painter from structure CCSS, but Profit center is not defined as Charactericts there. Hence of no use.
Can we append Profit Center field in CO line item tables COEP / COVP and update tatabase at the time of posting? Is there any risk?
Please suggest any other alternative...
Thanks,
BijayHi,
As per the standard process we can't derive PC from CO-internal Object...as per my knowledge.
Better you can derive from IO-CC master PC ....if your question that it will change frequently then -no control can make.

How to assign profit center to automatically generated line items
Hi, Experts,
My problem is that I want system automatically assign profit center to automatically generated line items.
Eg.
(Vat is @ 10%)
Transaction Amount Profit Center
Purchase Dr Rs.1000/- XYZ
Vat Dr Rs.100/-
To Vendor Cr Rs 1100/-
Here I have to assign Profit Center in VAT G/L by double clicking on it, in reality, system should automatically assign profit center to VAT G/L same as to purchase, because this vat amount belongs to same purchase G/L.
Kindly help me
Thanks in advanceHi,
1. In which SAP version you are working ? Are you using SAP 4.7 or ECC 6.0. ?
2. If you are in ECC 6.0, have you activated New G/L ?
3. Segment reporting is happening with Profit Center is one of the scenario ?
Auto updation of Profit Center will depend upon these conditions. Accordingly one can provide you the solution.

Profit center not flowing in line item 2
Hi Experts,
We have activated document splitting and kept the field Business Area (BA), Profit center (PCTR) and Segment mandatory and only business area and segment as zero balancing field.
While doing F-02 for an entry of Expense a/c..... Dr, Bank A/c ... Cr, I am giving cost center (say A) in the expense line item. From that Business area (say K) and Segment (say X) is taken in the expense line item and if I do not give anything in the bank line item the same is inherited there also.
If i give a separate profit center (B) in the bank line item (other than that in the expense line item) and keep the business area blank, automatic line item of 'inter branch clearing' is generated with 2 different PCTR (say A and B) and segment (say X and Y) but same business area
*But if I give a separate business area in the bank line item and keep the profit center blank though it is generating automatic line item of inter-branch clearing for separate business areas but it is not inheriting profit center from the expense line item and it is giving me an error that profit center in line item is not filled
Please help
Sourabh@ Murli: The scenarios for OL ledger is maintained so that is not the reason.
@ Ravi: I also initially thought the same but even after making profit center zero balanced it did not work.
The scenario is like this:
We are trying to post a JV - Dr. Expense a/c to Bank a/c.
1. When both BA & PC are left blank in the Bank line item, both are getting inherited from the Expense line item.
2. When both BA & PC are manually given, system is taking the manual inputs only.
3. When user enters PC manually but leaves BA blank, system takes that PC (user input) and inherits BA from the Expense line item.
4. BUT, when user enters BA manually & leaves PC blank, system is taking the BA (user input) & leaving the PC field blank, i.e. not inheriting PC from the Expense line item.

Profit Center Derivation in AuC Line Item
Hi Team,
We have Investment Profile configured, where in AuC gets automatically created in background with WBS Release.
Step 1: While settlement from WBS to AuC, Profit Center remains blank under Entry View for AuC Line (GL View = Inheritance from the Exp Line)
Step 2: Settlement from AuC to FA, Profit Center remains blank under Entry view for AuC Line (GL View = Inherits from the FA Line)
Mismatch occurs in the Step 2.
Ex.:
CJ03 - WBS - AAAA - Profit Center = 1001
Settlement - WBS to AuC - CJ88
Entry View:
CWIP A/c. Dr. 1000 - WBS ELement - Blank - PC - Blank
to Exp. A/c. dr. 1000 - WBS Element - AAAA - PC - 1001
GL View:
CWIP A/c. Dr. 1000 - WBS ELement - AAAA - PC - 1001 (Inherited)
to Exp. A/c. dr. 1000 - WBS Element - AAAA - PC - 1001
FINAL SETTLEMENT - CJ88
AS03 - ASSET MASTER DATA - PC = 1002
Fixed Asset A/c. Dr. 1000 - PC - 1002
CWIP Asset A/c. Cr. 1000 - PC - Blank
GL View
Fixed Asset A/c. Dr. 1000 - PC - 1002
CWIP Asset A/c. Cr. 1000 - PC - 1002
In above scenario Balances at PC level are not getting cleared (CWIP Balances remains under different PC).
Document Splitting is active, and the Business Variant assigned to the Doc. Type is 0000 - 0001 (Unspecified Posting)
How to determine Profit Center in Entry View during 1st settlement run from WBS to AuC?
Account Determination Object - ACSET - are active for WBS Element also.
Request to revert.
BR, Jaymin R. BhattHi Ajay,
I read the help.sap for the same and it says as below: Plus now its working fine.
Investment Orders / WBS Element under the ORIGIN tab of Asset Master Data are used for Statistical Posting (Value Type 11) and in order to populate the same in document posting (Entry View) we need to create a Statistical Cost Element (CE Type 90) which ensures that WBS gets populated under AuC Line.
I created the Cost Element for the AuC Asset Class GL Account and subsequent transactions made the Profit Center avaliable under Entry View.
It is splitting perfectly now.
The only thing we need to do is to create it GL as CE under 90 Category.
Agreed ACSET configuration is also required.
One drawback for the above is, It consumes the WBS Budget during settlement and it reverses the same after final settlement. We need to exempt the GL from avaliability control.
Again thanks for the suggestions till date. Help.SAP has many things to know.
Thanks again.

Profit Center assigned to a line item by default.
Hi,
When posting an entry to Bank account the user is not giving any profit center, but in entry view you can see the profit center being assigned to that line item and displayed. From where is that Profit center getting assigned and How can that be checked in the system?Hi,
A default profit center can be maintained in transaction 3KEH (table T8A30).
Check if the a default profit center is maintained for the Bank GL code the table.

Default profit center in sales order line item level
Hi Experts,
In creation of a sales order, I want to default the profit center for every line item in the order depending on some logic. How do I go about it.
Warm Regards,
Abdullah IsmailHi,
You would need to implement a user exit:
try this user exit :
USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP
Use this user exit to assign values to new fields at sales document item level. It is described in the section "Copy customer master fields into the sales document".
