Preventing Blocked Cost Center in SRM Search help

Hi All ,
We need to prevent the blocked cost centers in the search help in SRM .
I checked the BADI'S
BBPF4_READ_ON_ENTRY_
BBPF4_READ_ON_EXIT_ and method GET_COSTCENT. but both of these will not trigger when we give the cost center in search help and press start.
so is there any other BADI or Customer exit for this requriment.
Please help
Regards
Channappa

Hello,
These BADI can not be used for this kind of search help, as this is an R/3 search help and not an SRM search help.

Hope this helps.
Thanks

Blocking Cost Center in SRM

Hi eveyone,
We are working in SRM 4.0, classic scenario. I need to block certain cost centers during shopping. I have delimited those cost centers in PPOSA_BBP. Hence, now they are not valid in the org structure any more. But, while shopping the cost center is still visible & available.
Can anyone please tell me how can I block the cost centers, so that they are no available for shopping in SRM.
Also, I tried deleting the object assignment also, but that did not help either.
Also, kindly note that I cannot block those cost centers in R3, since we require them, incase if there is a need, then the PR can be raised from R3.
Kindly help.
Regards,
Bhakti.

Hi Joshi,
Go to T-code OOCU_RESP and you need to select the rule number...it might be customized. So chose that..for Example for Cost centre manager it might be 4000001.
Select the rule number and press enter, Here you will find the list of cost centre manager for your SRM system.
click on Overview and press Ctrl +F and type the use id of the user(manager). If he is maintained as as Cost centre manager.
Once you found an entry click on that which takes you to next screen where you will be able to see the list of cost centres he is responsible.
If you remove any cost centre from there So from next time if any user selects that particular CC since there is no CC approvers, enduser will not be able to see the approver.
This way you can remove the cost centre from a particular user.
Please let me know if you are still facing any issues.

Posting is happening in a blocked cost center , how to prevent this ?

During allocation of cost , credit entries are being posted to a cost center where all postings are blocked . To find the reason I searched SAP notes and found 203521 and 512403 where it's mentioned during cost allocation credit posting can go to a blocked cost center and in cost allocation SAP system does not correctly evaluate the lock indicators .
Program corrections provided in those two notes are for lower versions not suitable for ECC 5.0 ; so can anybody suggest me the most relevant note ? OR can anybody suggest me any alternative way ( other than implementating program correction ) to prevent this credit posting in a blocked cost center ?

Go to OBA5

F4 help for Cost Center in SRM 7.0

Hi,
My requirement is to display customized F4 help for the Cost Center(i.e. user specific search help maintained in Z table) field during the creation of the Shopping Cart.
I've created my own Search Help, and I'm looking for a BADI which will fit in my reuirement.
So far I've tried BADI 'BBP_DRIVER_DETREMINE ' for the same, but it's not getting called for providing F4 help.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Amit

Hello all,
This is to correct my posting on Nov 16, 2009 8:20 AM. I have done further research and testing and finally got the multiple GL working. I have to remove the authorisation for object BBP_FUNCT on activity BE_FE_HELP to disable the serach help function. This way, the user will see the allowed list of GLs instead of a search help.

Cost Center & GL Account search not working.

Hello all,
I am having the following problem while creating a shopping cart, at the Cost Assignment (item level). When I click on the binoculars for searching CC or GL Accounts, i get the following message: "Display not possible (inconsistency in the input help)".
Now, I've researched and tried every possible suggestion:
1. Make sure the requester has permissions BBP_FUNCT/value: BE_F4_HELP, and S_RFC/value:* (SU01), among many others.
2. I have assigned to the requester the respective roles in the organizational structure.
3. Changed the RFC user (from SRM to R/3) from type "communications" to dialog. This user has SAP_ALL in the backend system.
I have run out of ideas of what might be the problem. I've searched through the forums and used all of the ideas mentioned above, but the problem is still there.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,

Hi

Blocked cost center in PO

Hello , a PO has been created. It is impossible to do goods receipt on the PO since the cost center is blocked(and should be deleted). We are unable to modify the PO since the cost center in also present in the SC. how should we tackle this?

check with business team the possibilities of unlock cost center and do good receipt.
or
change the cost center in the Purchase order and do good receipt.
if you were already Invoice done for this PO, you must cancell the invoice to change the cost center in the PO.

Block cost center for overhead account

Dear Experts,
My user would like to block the cost center for overhead account, gl account number 3xxxx.
My question is, should the cost center blocked to be changed to other account? If yes, where to change the setting/configuration for overhead account to cost center? And what is the effect for this changes.
Kindly advice.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
In KS02 you can block the cost centre for secondary postings only, if this is what you mean by 'overhead' accounting. In OKB9, you set a default of a cost object for G/L account. If you want to block the postings to cost centre completely, obviously, you will have to change the default to other cost centre. Otherwise, you will be receiving errors when trying to post to the account in question. The impact of the change will be, that every new posting to this account will be done with a new cost centre.

Eli

Stored Procedure to block cost center or profit center to present in JE

Hi ...
I have a case where i need to block if either one of the cost center or the Profit Center is not present in the manual journal entry.
Below is my Stored Procedure which i have written....My Problem is that this block allows me to update only if both the Cost Center and the Profit Center is Present and does not allow if any one is present.
IF @object_type='30' AND (@transaction_type='A' or @transaction_type='U')
BEGIN
if(Select Count(*) from OJDT T0 INNER JOIN JDT1 T1 ON T0.TransId=T1.TransId
INNER JOIN OACT T2 ON T2.AcctCode=T1.Account
where T2.ExportCode LIKE '1%' And (isnull(T1.ProfitCode,0)='0' OR ISNULL(T1.OcrCode2,'')='') and
T0.TransId=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del)>0
begin
SET @error = 0201
SET @error_message= 'R1'
end
end
What could be the problem...?

Hi Gopi
Try This
IF @transaction_type IN ('A','U') and @Object_type = 30
BEGIN
IF EXISTS (SELECT T0.TransId FROM dbo.JDT1 T0
WHERE ((T0.ProfitCode ='' OR T0.ProfitCode IS NULL) and (T0.[OcrCode2]='' OR T0.[OcrCode2] IS NULL) and (T0.[OcrCode3]='' OR T0.[OcrCode3] IS NULL) and
(T0.[OcrCode4]='' OR T0.[OcrCode4] IS NULL) and (T0.[OcrCode5]='' OR T0.[OcrCode5] IS NULL)) AND T0.TransId = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
Begin
SET @Error = 1111
SET @error_message = 'At least one cost center is mandatory!'
End
End

SRM search help is restricted to 100 hits

Under default settings, the search help for eg. attibute LAG displays only 100 hits for the user, although more entries are maintained in the org structure. This also occurs when the user selects similar attributes during the creation of the shopping cart. The search help used is BBP_STORAGE_VALUE, which uses a search help exit function module called BBP_F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_STORAGE which explicitly in certain situations sets a limit of 500. Why are only 100 hits displayed for the user - could this be a template issue?

Our Basis guys followed the steps below:
Add the following parameter to the sap instance profile
itsp/SearchhelpResultPerPage = 1000
Do this either through RZ10 or directly at the filesystem level and change the 1000 value, that we used, to be greater than the maximum number of records that need to be returned
Restart the SAP instance and then check in RZ11 that the value is changed from the default (which is 100). Finally check that the search is now reurning the required number of results.

Cost center question..pls help

Hi,
thanks for the reply...but what I am looking for is not a change in the standard hierarchy but to replace it...let me try and explain....
there is this alternate hierarchy called "abc" and a standard hierarchy called "Pqr". Now the company is wanting to replace the pqr with abc....i am not sure if there is a transaction available for this....or if you have any idea to do this in a couple of steps. The need is really urgent for the company...if you can tell me if there is any sap notes in OSS which I can refer and run also it would be great...thanks a million for your response..I will await your response...

Dear Venkat!
Actually this is not "easy" at all. You would have to do the following: call transaction OKKP->choose the controlling area->on the first view try to change the field "Standard-Hierarchy"...an error will be processed if You have already assigned cost centers to "PQR". To make "ABC" Your new standard hierarchy You have to change field "KHINR" in database table "TKA01" with an ABAP or
SE16N. Just fill "ABC" into TKA01-KHINR. Afterwards re-run transaction OKEON. There You will still see the "old"
hierarchy. Use another trick here: search for the top-node of Your new hierarchy (e.g. "ABC"->then the system will find it). The search is done on the left screen section.
Click on the search result on the left to display this new hierarchy. The change should then be finished. Test this first in a sandbox system!
I hope this helps.
Best regards
Florian

Cost Center in SRM

Hi Friends,
In which database table the cost centers are stored in srm?
Thanks,
Atanu

What is your requirement? Do you want to find cost centres in ordered SC?
Go to BBP_PD, click on the Accounting section, you will get a GUID. Put this under BBP_PDACC.
Or else use function module BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL, provide your SC number in import parameter I_OBJECT_ID. You will get all your accounting details under table E_ACCOUNT. This is the best option if you are developing a report

How can I replace a standard search help in SRM 7.0 as enhancement?

Hi experts.
In SRM 7.0, Shopping Cart, Account tab - when using search help for the Cost Center field, a search help 'KOST' is called in the backend system.
I need to replace this functionality with a call to a local search help.
Being newbie in WebDynpro, I expected to be able to make this change in the Context field, search help attribute as an enhancement, but that was not possible.
Thanks in advance!
Per

Hi again.
I tried the proposed solution with no luck.
The problem is, that the standard program is dynamically accessing the attributes of the field I deleted and then I got a short-dump
The solution was however quite simple, when I first had the idea.
If SAP can access a screen field dynamically adding a search help, then I probably could do the same.
So I created a enhancement post exit in view method "WDDOMODIFYVIEW" with this code:
DATA lo_nd_account_detail TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
* navigate from <CONTEXT> to <ACCOUNT_DETAIL> via lead selection
lo_nd_account_detail = wd_context->path_get_node( path = `COMP_CONTEXT.ACCOUNT_DETAIL` ).
DATA lr_node_info TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
lr_node_info = lo_nd_account_detail->get_node_info( ).
CALL METHOD lr_node_info->set_attribute_value_help
    EXPORTING
      name            = `COST_CTR`
      value_help_mode = lr_node_info->C_VALUE_HELP_MODE-DDIC
      value_help      = 'BBP_COSTCENT_VALUE'
CALL METHOD lr_node_info->set_attribute_value_help
    EXPORTING
      name            = `G_L_ACCT`
      value_help_mode = lr_node_info->C_VALUE_HELP_MODE-DDIC
      value_help      = 'Z_GL_ACCOUNT'
The above code sets the search help for two fields in the Context.
Hope this helps someone out there!
Best regards

Search help for Acct Assignment not working

Hi,
When I create a PO and go into the account assignment tab at the item level and try to bring up the search help by clicking on the Binoculars , nothing happens. The backend has been upgraded to ERP2005. We are on SRM 5.0
Any thoughts on why this could happen?
Can you shed some light on how I could investigate this issue.
Your help is appreciated.
Joe

Hi
This is a bug in the System. Are you talking of customer fields / standard fields - search help ?
You need to raise an OSS message with SAP on this.
Meanwhile, try these SAP OSS notes.
<u>Note 739509 BBPPO01: SEARCH FOR ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT CATEGORY DOESN'T WORK
Note 746788 - Back-end system search help for cost center
Note 656633 - Search help requires dialog users
Note 907016 - Error when you select search help</u>
Also ensure, proper authorization objects are provided by BASIS team.
Let me know incase you need any assistance.

Hi,
What are the various methods/ways of assigining Cost Center to Org Units.
Regards
Rajesh

Hi ,
In PPOME tcode search for the org unit you have created.
On the Account Assignment tab page, relate your new organizational unit to a cost center in the detail area. Select the Master Cost Center field, and search for a cost center using the search help F4
