After I investigate there is 3 table in my system will be store under profit segment that is : CE48888, CE48888_ACT and CE4888_FLAG. but I don't know if there other table to be stored the data again if I only allocate value for this 3 tables above.
Appreciate for you all if can help me. Thank you

WBS and Profit Segment fileds should be filled at Sales Order item level

Hi,
When i create a Sales order I want to save both PA Segment and WBS Element fields in Account Assignment tab at item level.
By default Profit.Segment is filled beacuse COPA is already activated in this system, when i try to enter WBS element in Account Assignment Tab at line item level Profit.Segment field grayed out.
Is it possible to input both the fields WBS element (VBAP-PS_PSP_PNR) and COPA Profitability Segment Number (VBAP-PAOBJNR)
Thanks,
Fract

This is SAP system standar behaviour.
note # 729381 under item 6:

Splitting in NEW GL with one profit center and two segments

What options are avialble for splitting in New GL when there should be one profit center and two segments - maybe characteristic derivation could solve it?

If I have understood your question correctly then you have one profit center and you want to attach two segments to it.
Segment is higher level than the profit centre. One segment can have n number of profit centres but one profit centre will have only one segment. This is the drawback in using the 'segment' in SAP. Also, it is difficult to change sengment embedded in profit centre master.
You might try using profit centre groups than segment.

Inconsistency between a document field and the prof. segment number

Hi,
While processing an invoice in one company code for vendor# XXX with the PO# AAAA line# 10, it is showing below error message while posting. Please advise on the below error or fix the issue to post the invoice in to SAP. The using screen T-code is miro.
Inconsistency between a document field and the prof. segment number
*Message no. KE396
*Diagnosis
A line item was assigned to a profitability segment (number 0008629207) which has the value 0000101000 for characteristic Profit Center. The original document (FI document, sales order, internal order, etc.), however, contains 0000102020 in this field. It is therefore inconsistent with the profitability segment found.
System response
The characteristics in Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) must have the same characteristic values as the original document. For example, you cannot assign a sales order to a different customer or product than the one contained in the original sales order. If you wish to fill the characteristics with different contents, you must change the original fields.
Procedure
Enter the correct characteristic values on the CO-PA assignment screen. The system will automatically assign a corresponding profitability segment number. If it is not possible to enter values in some of these fields, delete the entire assignment to a profitability segment number and then enter it again.
As a rule, you should first enter the fields in the original sender document and then make the assignment to a profitability segment.
What should I do for the above pl ?

Difference between defining segment and maintaining segment for GL items

Hello All,
Can someone tell me the difference between 'Defining a Segment' (in enterprise structure) and 'Maintaining Segment for general ledger Items' (tcode FQ0300) and when is the later used?

Hi,
Segment reporting is part of functional reporting in sap. Segment reporting is required as per International Accounting Standard 14 for listed companies thats why it is defined in Enterprise structure .
Segment is maintained in profit
center master data from where it is derived, When you post to a GL account containing segment it gets posted to profit center. This is the basis purpose of maintaining segment at Gl account level. Segment reporting is gradually being replaced by business area. This is for you information.

Desactivate Profit Segment in a Purchase Order

Hello,
When we post a purchase order the field "Profit Segment" is automatically filled. When we check the controlling document created it creates a line with CO Object: PSG - profit segment.
Although we need to post cost center in one specific document type. If we put manually the cost center and system puts automatically the profit segment in the end the controlling document will have 2 lines: CTR (cost center) and PSG (profit segment). In this case the cost center becomes with value type 11 "statistical actual".
Since we need to do postings in SD in cost center with value type 4 "Actual" is it possible to deactivate the field "Profit Segment" in a specific document type?
I've already tried to do it in transaction KE4W but the field "Profit Segment" is still with values and in controlling document the line PSG is still there. The only thing that happened was that Profitability Analysis document wasn't created.
Best Regards,

Hello,
I've already checked the derivation rules in the system but there's anything that related with this.

Profit Segment not activated during creation of purchase order item

Hello,
While I create a Purchase Order Item, in the account assignment tab, I may fill in at least a cost center or a cost center and an internal order.
If I fill in only a cost center and key the enter buton, the profit segment is activated.
If I fill in the cost center and the Internal Order at the same time and afterwards I key the enter button, the profit segment is not activated. I have to click on the Profit segment button and validate the profit segment manually.
Could you tell me what the problem is?
Thank you in advance
Regards

Hi
That makes sense to me
In any entry you can enter One REAL Object and more than one Stat Object...
SInce you entered Cost Center in Option 1 - You were proposed with PSG and IO as the option
Since you entered Cost center *** REAL IO in Option 2 - The system got what it wanted i.e. One REAL OBJECT.. hence, no more objects are proposed to you... However, you can manually enter PSG or WBS if allowed in your Field Status Group in FI

Business Area and Profit Center In Document Splitting

Hi,
We are using Business area and Profit Center characteristics for document splitting.
In one transaction, the Business area and profit centers are defaulted through the cost center.
The document is successfully split in respect of the business area, but the profit center is not filled, thereby giving error while posting.
Please suggest.

Hi,
Actually, we have all three scenarios, profit center, segment and business area..
As suggested, we have checked all field status relevant.. profit center is optional in all cases..
Now, Pls consider the scenario without business area in document splitting characteristics..
If I post an expense, profit center is picked thru cost center and segment thru profit ctr. The vendor or bank line item inherits the characteristic values from the previous line item.
Now, in addition we have business areas in doc splitting characteristics.
Business area, again is populated thru cost centers, along with profit ctr and segment.
The business area gets correctly populated in the vendor line item.. but the profit center doesnt.
Please let us know the reason..

Difference between New G/L Segment and Profitability Segment

Dear friends,
Can somebody explain what is the difference between New G/L segment and Profitability segment.
Thanks, Prakash

Hi,
Segment in New G/L is puerly for external reporting purpose.A segment is a sub area of a company for which has separate financial data and which has expenses and losses.For this segment we need virtually complete balance sheet for external reporting purpose.
Profitability segment is for analysis of profit within the organisation.A Profitability segment is a combination of different characteristic for which we want to analyse sales revenue and cost.These characteristic can be any thing for example customer, product, sales organisation etc.
For example We want to analyse what is the total sales of product A for customer group B under the sales organisation XYZ. Here profitability segment = Product+customer group +sales organisation

Business area and profit center

plz can anyone explain me what is the diffrence between business area and profit center.

Business Area is a type of organizational unit structure, primarily used to facilitate external segment reporting across company codes, covering the company's main areas of operation. Business Areas run across company codes. The relationship is n:n. Business Area is part of FI.
Profit Center is also a type of organization unit structure, used for management/ internal controlling purposes. Dividing the company up into profit centers allows one to analyze areas of responsibility and to delegate responsibility to decentralized units, thus treating them as companies within the company. The profit centers also run across company codes. The relationship is n:n. Profit Center Accounting is part of Enterprise Controlling.
While it may look apprantly that both Business Area and Profit Center do the same kind of analysis and reporting, with in SAP internal architecture they are kept in different modules and different tables.
SAP Note 321190 provides the difference betwen Business Area and Profit Center, which you can get from SAP Service Market place.
SAP has maintained Business Area from 4.6B onwards, while there are enhancements happening in Profit Center side.
