Profit center field mandatory and error in OKB9

Hello everyone,
I have a question on Profit center. My user wants to see a message that profit center is mandatory at the time of GL posting and also add a profit center at the time of GL posting.
What I tried was in OKB9 added cost element (GL), assigned category 3 for 'Profit center mandatory' but when I assigned a profit center it gave me a message that 'cost element needs to be a revenue element  (Note - cost element is assigned category 11)  to assign profit center so  I left that. and only used category 3 with cost element and company code.
My question is
1) Why is it giving me this error in OKB9, when I assign cost element.
2) How can I make Profit center field mandatory for the client and he can add his own Profit center

HI,
In OKB9 for profit center assingment it can be only Revenue elements. For those expenses item it can be cost elemtn with category 1.
It can be possible make it as mandatory fiile  in field status variant for respective GL accounts and also document type you can make profit center is mandatory in that FSV.
Revert for clarification.

  • How to make the Profit Center Field Mandatory in Cost center Master Data

    Dear All,
    Please let me know how to make the Profit Center Field mandatory in Cost Center Master Data as well as my Internal Order Master Data?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Rajeswari Shankar.

    Hi Rajeswari,
    You can modify message number KS096 to "Error" via OBA5. Thus, the users would no be able to save a cost center without entering a profit center. (Depending on your release you can make KS096 modifiable by implementing note 486781.) 
    Concerning the internal orders (transaction KO01), you can run KOT2 and set Profit center field as required entry in "change field selection" section.

  • Vendor to vendor entry-profit center field not appearing in line item

    Dear Sir/Madam
    We have gone live with New GL Implementation. Last month we have implemented it.
    Now we are passing entries from vendor to vendor. It is transfer entry from one vendor to another through T code FB01.
    we have made the profit center field mandatory in the Reconciliation GL account Field status group. Also we have made the profit center field mandatory in the Posting key 21 and 31 field status. The profit center field is not appearing in the line item because of which we are not able to post the entry.
    Kinldy help us to resolve the issue.
    Prashant Zinge

    Hi Prashant,
    As mentioned by all here.. it is correct that you do not have profit centre in Vendor line items..
    As I understand it is a one time activity.. of transferring balance from one vendor account to another vendor Account.. so you can use a clearing account to transfer the balances.. this way your entries will increase but you will be able to post w/o any customisation. You can also use LSMW to post this.

  • Profit Center as mandatory field for Posting keys 01, 11, 31, etc.

    Hello,
    Currently I am in a project in which we have implemente New GL; my client is asking me to activate the Profit Center field for posting keys 01, 11, 21 and 31, so they can post in example documents with posting key 31 (vendor) vs posting key 01 (client). I modified the accounts field status in order for the Profit Center to be mandatory. I modified, as well, posting keys 01, 11, 21 and 31 field status' in orden for the profit center to be mandatory as well. Regardless of this, the profit center just doesn't appear when I post a document in example through tx F-02.
    Does anyone knows how to make this field appear for the posting keay I mentioned? Is it possible? or is this a system limitation?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Profit center field is not appearing while posting of customer invoice  and

    Hi,
    profit center field is not appearing while posting of customer invoice in F-02 i was selected profit center field is optional on posting key and field status group level ................
    Can anybody tell what are all new gl Reporting list of transaction codes

    Hi,
    In the F-02 T.Code we cannot find the profit centre for customer line item. We have to attach the profit centre for the other line item i.e income gl account. Due to document splitting system will derive the profit centre and we can see the profit centre for the both line items under General Ledger view.
    Thanks,

  • Profit center field is mandatory

    Dear friends,
    How can I make profit center field is mandatory in Cost center master?

    Hi,
    if profit-center acounting is active I guess profit-center is a required entry in cost center master. If not use enhancement COOMKS02 to check if profit center is maintained during creation/changing of cost centers.

  • Profit center field and internal order field in sales order

    Hello all,
    I am unable to find the settings for profit center field and internal order field in sales order account assignment tab screen. kindly let me know the path and configuration settings.
    Thanks in advance

    srinivas

    Hi Srinivas
    If you want to assign the profit center then make sure that the Profit center is assigned in MMR->Sales orgn 1 view . 
    But to assign the Profit center in MMR also you need to configure the Profit center first for your Material in your company code with the help of FI/CO consultants and then assign then the profit center will flow from MMR to sales order  item data->account assignment tab

  • To make profit center as mandatory while creating cost center

    Hi,
    what is the procedure to make profit center as mandatory while creating cost center.
    Thanks and Regards
    Boppana

    Hi Boppana,
    There are two possibilities to have the profit center field as
    mandatory in KS01 (cost center creation):
    a) You can modify message number KS096 to "Error" via OBA5.
       Thus, the users would no be able to save a cost center without enteri
       a profit center.
       Depending on Your release you can make KS096 modifiable by
       implementing note 486781.
    b) You can directly modify the field via SE51 (SE51 -> Element list ->
       Rider Special Attributes) to mandatory entry.
       But in order to do this, You will need an SAP developer and
       object key (available via OSS ).
    I would strongly advise method a). It's simpler and you don't
    have to modify a SAP object (it would be a modification of the standard)

  • Profit center field in FIBLFFP- free form payment

    Hi,
    We need profit center field in the screen of FIBLFFP as it is not present currently in the t code FIBLFFP. We needed this field as New G/l has been implemented and document splitting is active based on the profit center but we have not marked mandatory check for profit center in the current customizing settings. As a consequence for some of the posted transctions involving multiple profit centers we could not see the profit centers in some of the line items in General ledger view. Thus we want to have profit center field in the screen of FIBLFFP so that mandatory check for profit center can be made.
    We are using ECC 6.0, any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Have you got any solution to adding cost center or profit center in T-Code FIBLFFP?

  • Profit center field is null /blank Not picking from responsible cost center

    Hi
    1) Does anyone know if it is possible to change the profit center on a PM order after transactions have occurred? I get an error that says:
    You want to change the profit center for the maintenance order.
    System Response:
    The system does not let you change the profit center, because postings to the order have already taken place.
    2) Even though profit center is maintained for the cost center of the main work center. Responsible cost center and Profit center fields are not being proposed by the system when the work order is being created using T-code IW31.
    Because of profit center field is null the system automatically picks dummy profit center"9999". This is not correct.
    Correct Profit center should comes from the cost center.
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Thanks in Advance

  • 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,
    Bijay

    Hi,
    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 set default value in Profit Center field of Tcode F-02.

    Hi!
    Is it possible to set a default value for 'Profit Center' field in t.code F-02? Is there a way wherein the value will be copied in reference to the entered Business Area?
    For example, if during parking/posting of document, user input a value of 300 in the Business Area field, the system will automatically put 300 in the Profit Center field. Is there a way to do this?
    Hoping for your feedback.
    Thanks,

      i.constant value
      ii.exit
      iii.Field-Field assignment
    Select the 3rd option on selecting 3rd option before going to save that substitution it'll ask you to input which field should input the field BSEG-GSBER:Business area
    Step-3: activate the above substitution in TC:OBBH
