Product-profit center

Hi guys,
Rules & any documentation to map Product categories from legacy system to Profit centers...unable to approach the issue...any help...thanks

We created a custom infoobject for our legacy products. Inside that custom object we added profit center as an attribute.
When loading the data from your legacy system you have the product, in the update rules map the profit center as a attribute of what ever product is in the record.
Done.

Consolidation - incorporate other details like Product, Profit Center etc?

Hi,
For financial consolidation we are bringing only the trial balance data. To bring user defined dimension such as Product, Region, Profit Center, Cost Center etc, do the GL accounts need to be configured accordingly with this information?
Thanks,
Sincerely,
Nicky

HI Nicky
If you are using a standard exractor like 0FI_GL_10 for transaction data, the values for profit center / cost center would come automatically as the extractor uses table FAGLFLEXTA.
Thus for the transaction data extractor you are using , check whether these user defined fields are already present . If not enhance the extractor to populate the values for all dimensions.
Master data values for the user dimension can be loaded using relevant infoobject

Profit center experts - Please give me idea

Hi friends
In profit center accounting is it possible to see profits with out HR module -?
The reason I am asking -
Any company make profits after all expenses .
If any copmany hs 100 employees. they need to subtract 100 employees salraries from the over all revenue.
So really profit cneter can handle this.
Or just profits from the other scenarios- ?
Can any body give me idea in Big scope -?

Hi Kris,
Both Profit Center and Profitability Analysis have their own way of analysis. While Profit Center compares the
plan and actual values between two comparison periods and which of the profit centers are more viable
for the company, Profitability Analysis is a three dimensional model spreading your horizon to analyse
for example, for a particular product, which sales area is earning more revenue and through which
distribution channel or through with customer segment. The difference between Profit and Profitability.
Many of the companies have their own heirarchy of mapping the Profit Centers. They form a Profit Center Group,
say, Production Profit Center Group consisting of all the Work Centers defined as profit Centers, Sales Profit Center
Group with all the Sales Areas defined as Profit Centers, Administrative Group consisting of head office and
corporate offices etc.

Activation of Transfer Price; Profit Center;

Dear All,
As I have no prior experience in CO/ Transfer Price , I sincerely seek the assistance and help of kind souls in giving some pointers on the following questions after reading so much from everywhere.
Currently we are having a Production Profit Center selling to a Selling Profit Center at a neogotiated price. Thus we would like to activate Transfer Price in Controlling and Material Ledger to document internal revenue, internal costs and changes in stock in each Profit Center.
My queries as follows:
Activation of Transfer Price
1) The Currency & Valuation Profile has to be maintained.
As we are interested in activating the Profit Center Valuation View in Material Ledger to store the transfer price in company code currency, we will need to create a new Currency & Valuation profile as the Company Code Currency + Profit Center Valuation here. Is this correct? Is there a need to create the valuation profile for Company Code Currency + Legal Valuation?
2) Assignment of Currency & Valuation Profile to Controlling Area
If we have 2 profiles such as Company Code Currency + Profit Center Valuation and Company Code Currency + Legal Valuation, how are we to assign only a single profile to the Controlling Area? Or is it possible to assign 2 profiles to the Controlling Area?
3) Create Versions for Valuation Methods
As we are using Transfer Prices, SAP Help says we specify "Operational Actual Version 000" for the valuation which becomes the leading valuation in CO. How do we do this in the configuration?
4) Define Valuation Clearing Account
The transfer price is actually used between 2 Profit Centers within a Company Code. Thus is the defination of Valuation Clearing Account applicable in our case? From the postings that I saw from your above reply regarding the recognition of AR/AP from both Profit center, is it here or other area where we config for such posting?
5) To assign additional Postings in PCA for Internal Goods Movement
Are the GL Account postings that you displayed in your above reply configured here? Do you encourage to use Valuation Grouping Code?
6) To assign additional Postings in PCA for Production Variance
Since we have a Production Plant, does that mean we would have to assign GL Accout Postings to account for Production Variance?
7) Define Special Handling for Internal Goods Movements
If possible, kindly enlighten for what kind of expenses or situation we should use this?
Activation of Material Ledger
1) Can we use the Standard ML as we will only be using the company code currency where in the Controlling Area, we are using Controlling Area Currency. For both The Co Code Currency and Controlling Area Currency is the same currency (SGD). Thus in this case, the ML will adopt the currency type from FI and CO?
2) To allocate the transfer price, we will need to create pricing conditions and access sequence.
Also we should be using the Actual Transfer Price Variant 000 for actual postings, is this reasonable?
3) Where do we store the transfer price in the Material Ledger (Material/Profit center)?
4) When the STO is created, based on the Material/Profit Center, will the STO automatically retrieve the price from the ML? Can the price be overwritten in the STO?
Your time and efforts in reading and response are greatly appreciated!
Best Regards

Hi Sridhar,
Thanks for the inputs.
Here, I am getting the new G/l values in all the related reports after running this transaction.
For example : A perticular G/l a/c say 333100 was having value 100000.
Now after running this transaction 1KEI , the new balance of the G/l has become 250000.
For all reporting purpose, this new value is flowing for that G/l. However, now we understand that previous value of 100000 was correct for the reporting style which we were carrying out uptill now.
As a result , we would like to have the value of this G/L as 100000 again as against the current value of 250000.
In short , I want to nullify/ reverse the effect of tr. code 1KEI.
How to achieve this?
Warm Regards,
George

Profit center report picks production variance posting from prev periods

(This is a repost, from a ill-chosen forum)
Guys I am lost
I am running S_ALR_87013340 : profit center Plan Actual comparison report, on a group of profit centers: the total I got is different from the sum of the individual profit centers in the group: the difference being on my production variance account, and a sales posting that relates to the prior period
I had the same issue last month, with the discrep. only being my production variance account.
but I was expecting something of the sort: it was the first time we closed orders, and SAP closed all orders since the implementation, years earlier
What could cause this?
Thanks for your time, again
KR - Loï

Hi
The Production Variance account is usually not created as a Cost element.. Hence, the PC from the Mat Master is derived into this Line item.... Ideally, the PC from mat master gets copied into the Prod order also... If you change the PC in mat master later on, you can see a mismatch
Whats the situation in your case? The Prod Var account has PC or not or which PC does it have?

Hi,
Substitution Rule :-
Prerequisite :
1. WBS Level (PRPS-STUFE) = ' 3 ' AND Statistical Indicator (PRPS-XSTAT) = ' X '
Substitute
1. Profit centre (PRPS-PRCTR) - ' '
Hope this will clear you...

Map Profit Center as custom field to product

Hi,
We want to map Profit Center(35 characters) to a custom field in product for some analysis. We want to map it to Custom Attribute 2 (XARLPROA2) this is a 40 character long field.
We do not want to see this field in Reports in UI. Please let us know is this the right approach or would you suggest some other field to which wecan map Profit Center.
Regards
Neel

Hi Neel
I am assuming that you are referring to display attribute and not navigation attribute that needs to be added to product. Yes, thats the same as adding an attribute in standard BW way.
And then, in the SPM UI you can display attributes in the contextual menu of a particular product.
But if you do need to do analysis on it then on top of adding the attribute, you need to flag it as navigation and then bring it in the following:
The respective cube(s) 0ASA_C*
Add it into the multiprovider 0ASA_MP01
Add it to the Query
Log into SPM UI and refresh all data sources (make sure that no other users are logged in at that time), log out
Clear browser cache and log back in
Create report with that nav att
Hope that helps!

Transaction from production order always post into dummy profit center

Dear SAP experts,
I have problem with profit center.
I have material master "A1" and "A1B1". The process is "A1" is raw material for making "A1B1".
The CO team forgot to entry the profit center field in both of material in their material master.
So when there are posting " material consumed " and "good receipt" in production order,PL account "material consumed" (happen when good issue to production order) and PL account "production output" (happen when good receipt from same production order) are mapping to dummy profit center.
This because of the CO team forgot to entry the profit center field in both of material in their material master, so ssystem post to dummy profit center.
So I change both of the material masters and entry the profit center field (so it's not blank).
But when the PP team make new production order and post the same transaction, it still post into dummy profit center (the profit center that I entry in material master is not read by system).
Even when the PP team create new material with the same spesification,entry the profit center field and run the same transaction, the dummy still posted by system.
How to solve this problem?
Kindly help me please.
regards

Hi Anu
After maintaining the PC in the mat master, create a new Prod order w/o copying from the Old Prod Order...
Once you maintain PC in A1B1 - It should update the Prod Order of A1B1 as well

Profit center in Product cost collector

Hi,
We need to change the profit center in the product cost collector after the actual postings were made. SAP does not allow to change the profit center. So any other work around solution for this issue? Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks & Regards,
Raghava

Hi Bhuvaneswari,
We are having a situation,
The issue is to change the profit center for the product collector after the actual postings were made. Now the big problem is there is no PA transfer structure defined to execute the settlement for these product cost collectors and then change the profit center. Can you give some work around solution for this? And also what about the postings made previously.
To give more insight,
In the order type, Settlement profile is maintained
In the Settlement profile, Allocation structure is maintained
How do you link the settlement profile / allocation structure to the PA transfer structure?
I can not settle the order (Product cost collector) as there is no PA transfer structure
Thanks & Regards,
Raghava
