Profit center change in production system

Dear Experts,
We are currently on SAP R/3 4.7.
We have a situation where we need to do a reorganization of profit centers in an already running production system.
Could someone let me know what is the best approach to do this in the SD module. What is the impact with rference to Scheduling agreements/ sales orders, etc. Are there any existing programs in SAP R/3 to take care of this change?
Are there SAP notes/ documents that I can go through that give an ideas of the Dos and DON'Ts while making this change.
Sharing of past experiences/problems would also go  long way.
In case someone has some existing documentation regarding this kind of issue, please share it with us .
Best regards,
Saraswathi

    Anusha

    HI charlie,
    When i try to change the profit center, the system gave this message. We already have a profit center for a production order and we need to change the profit center, That is when we are getting the errror message.
    You have changed the profit center from AR00620800 to AR00620301. This is only allowed when the corresponding configuration was made in Customizing. Then this message is only a warning, which you can ignore.  PLease help
    Thanks

  • TWO Changes In Production System

    Hi , there are two changes in Production system,
    one is there is a report i have to do some modification in PROD,for this have to do in DEV,QA,PROD Respectively , here whether i have to use old request to new one , is this is the right practice or not,
    second in  transfer rules there is a conversion routine , i have to do some modification , How can i do like once again DEV,QA,PROD
    Hope u understand the problem
    With Regards
    MAHI

    Hi,
    Normally we dont have any authorization for changing the objects directly in production.
    You need to make the required changes in Dev and then move to Quality and then to Production. Hence you need to create a new requrest for all the changes you made in Dev and move to Quality and then to Production.
    Hope this helps.

  • 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?

  • Internal order profit center change

    Hi sap gurus,
        I want change the internal order profit center but when iam changing the profit center the below message is coming
    You changed the profit center; see long text
    Message no. KO367
    Diagnosis
    You have changed the profit center from 1110-P to 1610-P. This is only allowed when the corresponding configuration was made in Customizing. Then this message is only a warning, which you can ignore.
    Procedure
    If you want to make it possible to change the profit center, you should change this message from an error message into a warning. To do this choose Adjust message control (Application area "KO", message number "367").
    When you change the profit center, the last period should be settled and since then no more postings should have been made.
    Notes
    Order values can already have been updated on the profit center you are assigning to. For the new assignment, only the new order values on the profit center you are now assigning to are posted.
    If an order is assigned to a profit center and the "Integrated Planning" indicator is set, plan costs can be updated in the future on the old profit center.

    Hi,
    Changing profit centre assignment to internal order has certain consequences, which are partially listed in the message. So, the system gives you a choice to forbid this kind of action or allow by making the message only a warning. If you want to do so, go to OBA5 transaction, enter the 'KO' as application area and change the parameters for 367 message.
    Regards,
    Eli

  • Structure view "Profit center hierarchy" for Information system

    Hi Experts
    The structure view "Profit center hierarchy" is not available in standard system. I have created a new key with assignement of PS Hierarchy type '2'.
    But iam getting below message when I use this new structure view:
    Alternative hierarchy could not be determined
    Message no. OK032
    Diagnosis
    You attempted to structure your project elements according to an alternative hierarchy (profit center, cost center or summarization hierarchy). The alternative hierarchy could not be read.
    System Response
    The system uses the "Work breakdown structure" view.
    Any suggestion?
    warm regards
    ramSiva

    Ok lets start from basics
    go to CN41 and enter a project with std PS info profile 000000000000001
    if you click o the DB profile you will have basic setting 000000000000001 etc
    this gives us the project structure
    Now in transaction OPUR create a view for PC hierarchy
    Z00000000001 - whatever description
    select PS hier type 2 - Profit Ctr via set
    I think you have done this
    In this configuration there is a group name - you need to enter the profit centre hierarchy group name from your system
    this group must exist in your system check using transaction KCH3 to display group - if this is not entered correctly you will get the exact error you have got - I have been able to replicate in my system
    Now run CN41 change DB profile project view from 00000000001 to Z0000000001

  • Profit center change

    Dear PS Gurus
    Our scenario is PS centric where projects are used as cost and revenue buckets. We are selling service in terms of consultant hrs to our clients which are tracked through time bookings in Projects.The Sales order and billing is based upon resource related billing. Similiarly, We maintain profit centers in projects at WBs level and reporting is based upon PCA.
    Business new requirements are forcing is to change Cost center/Profit Center hierarchy. We have already thousands of on going projects in system with old profit centers. If profit center hierachy is going to be changed then does it mean that we need create all projects newly and plug the new profit centers or we can replace old profit centers by new one.If we opt the second option then what are the consequences of this change and what is possible way out to counter the change?
    Best Regards
    Adwait A Deshpande

    Dear Sudhir
    Thanks for your reply. But what about cost center change since planned cost does not flow from old to new cost centers. Pl confirm if really there is any other consequence of CC/PC change or not?

  • Profit Center Changing Problems

    Hi,
    I want to give the profit center though it was not assigned at the time creation of material master.So if i want to give the profit center in MM02 it is showing the error "the Stock is already available".
    So please help me out.if there is any procedure to give the profit center in MM02.
    Thanks

    if the message is an error message, then your controllers should be lucky.
    Keep them lucky and remove the stock first, then change profit center, then enter stock again.
    If you dont follow this way, then you create inconsistencies in profit center accounting.
    Because...you received your stock without profit center (actually it is a certain default profit center), if you then change the PC in your material, then each issue will be posted to the new PC, while it never had a receipt.

    THis has happened at following form of SAPMF05A.

    Can any one tell me reason for this behavior and how to rectify the same..
    Your help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello Saint,
    Once the document posted you can not change the profit center, there are two options are available
    1) Reverse the original document and post new document with correct profit center.
    2) Post the document in profit center using 9KE0.
