Profit Center Help

Hi all,
We are interested in using profit centers We are on SAP Business One 2007A PL 47. I am looking for documentation or a How To Guide on explanation of profit centers, revenue/expense account, COGS Profit center (how it is used and reported). I have read the Online Help, but I am looking for more detail documentation.
I have seen previous posts on the forum with a link what appears to be documentation, but when i click on the link it says I do not have permission. I have a S log on ID.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
If you are a customer, you may search under Customer Support Portal - Documentation.
Thanks,
Gordon

HELP!! - HOW TO MAKE SEGMENT MANDATORY IN PROFIT CENTER

HELLO,
WE ARE IMPLEMENTING CONTROLLING, FINANCIAL AND NEW GENERAL LEDGER, I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE THAT THE FIELD SEGMENT IS MANDATORY IN THE PROFIT CENTER CREATION PROCESS,
COULD YOU HELP ME WITH THIS??
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Hello again and thanks a lot for your quick answers,
but what i can not understand very well is why I do not have this problem in another client, since i am not be able to create a cost centre without filling in the corresponding profit centre and I can not create a profit centre without filling in the corrresponding segment.
However in the client where i need to customize this, by default this fields are not mandatory, so there must be a customizing table or whatever to change this fields. I know the transaction OKEG, i do not know if this problem can be related to this issue.
So, i need to know the customizing tables to change the fields status in cost centre and profit centre. I am sure that this issue there must be related with the activation of New General Ledger, because the method that we are using is the inheritance by segment...
Any comments will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Profit center reporting - need help

hello ,
how do we assing b/s accoutn to profit cneters ( profit center = plant ) and how can we capture plant wise positng to b/s acc, like bank or tax accounts to profit centers in order to generae complete plant b/s and p/l statmens.
i am really stuck at this point and trying to find a way how the same accoutns gave be captued on different profit cneters for diffneret plants and how do we identify the profit cneter fot that account ( for e/g bank account or a/p account ) based on the plant.
please let me know .
thanks very much

Hi,
For assigning a default Profit Centers to Balance Sheet accounts you can use Transaction code 3KEH. But this will facilitate to take only one Profit Center for one Balance Sheet account.
For Bank and Cash accounts, I have seen Business Practices like assigning it to a Corporate Head Quarters Profit Center. Later if required they can do some allocation functionality at month end.
Setting up a derivation rule to split the amount based on Plant is also not feasible, because the amount posted to a Balance Sheet account cannot be divided. In case Inventory / Receivables / Payables / Fixed Assets we can use the standard SAP functionality in PCA.
In case if you working on ECC 6.0 version along with New GL functionality, there are more options there and you can use Profit Center Accounting along with Segment accounting.
Thanks
Murali.

No Profit Center defaulted to posted FI doc-HELP!

Hi Gurus,
An FI doc was posted w/o Profit Center, because we found-out that posting comes first before config.
Therefore when we view KE5T, said posted doc didn't take effect.
Currently the pd. for the posted doc was already closed. How can we correct said posted doc in order to indicate the Profit center and so that it will take effect as well in KE5T?
Please advise.
Thanks!
Eve

Hi,
You may try to run 1KE8 transaction. Try it in test mode first for the specific FI document, to see if PCA document is created. If not, only forced intervention in the tables could correct your situation or standard reversal process as it was suggested.

Eli

Help on fox used to one/all profit center/cost center of one company code

Hi experts,
I have a fox formula witch is to be applied in diferent situations:
1. To one cost center
2. To all cost centers of one company code
3. To one profit center
4. To all profit centers of one company code
I'm using the following variables:
ZIPROFCE (1st profit center selected in query)
ZIPROFC2 (number of profit centers selected in query)
ZICOSTCE (1st cost center selected in query)
ZICOSTC2 (number of profit centers selected in query)
The formula is actually like below, guess it is not worrking because I can't have an integer number accepted by chars 0profit_ctr and 0costcentr. I am thinking of adding another char in the infocube witch is integer (without master data), and it would do the job. Is there other way out, so I can mantain actual aggregation levels and filters?
DATA PERIOD TYPE 0FISCPER3.
DATA PER_P TYPE 0FISCPER3.
DATA PCENTER TYPE 0PROFIT_CTR.
DATA PCENTER1 TYPE 0PROFIT_CTR.
DATA PCENTER2 TYPE 0PROFIT_CTR.
DATA CCENTER TYPE 0COSTCENTER.
DATA CCENTER1 TYPE 0COSTCENTER.
DATA CCENTER2 TYPE 0COSTCENTER.
DATA PLANPER TYPE F.
PCENTER1 = VARV (ZIPROFCE).
PCENTER2 = VARV (ZIPROFC2).
CCENTER1 = VARV (ZICOSTCE).
CCENTER2 = VARV (ZICOSTC2).
PLANPER = VARV (ZEPLANPE).
PER_P = VARV (ZEPLAPER).
*IF CCENTER2 = 1.
CCENTER = CCENTER1.
*ENDIF.
IF PCENTER2 = 1.
CCENTER = #.
PCENTER = PCENTER1.
ELSEIF PCENTER2 > 1.
CCENTER = #.
ENDIF.
FOREACH CCENTER, PCENTER.
PERIOD = PER_P.
DO.
IF { ZCOMPROM, CCENTER, 013, PCENTER } <> 0.
{ 0AMOUNT, CCENTER, PERIOD, PCENTER} = { ZCOMPROM, CCENTER, 013, PCENTER } / PLANPER.
ENDIF.
PERIOD = PERIOD + 001.
IF PERIOD = 013.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
ENDFOR.
Tanks in Advance,
João Anastácio

Hello João,
you are making it more complicated than it is:
Fields to be changed: Key figure, period
DATA PERIOD TYPE 0FISCPER3.
DATA PLANPER TYPE F.
PLANPER = VARV (ZEPLANPE).
PERIOD = VARV (ZEPLAPER).
IF { ZCOMPROM, 013 } > 0.
{ 0AMOUNT, PERIOD} = { ZCOMPROM, 013 } / PLANPER.
ENDIF.

Help needed for Restricting roles by maintaining values at Profit center

Hi,
My client uses the restriction at Company Code and Cost Center but we were using a * for full authorization to maintain the Profit Center. Now the situation has arisen where we need to maintain a particular Role at Profit Center level. We are creating a new role and maintaining the value of it. But there are a few other Roles where the Profit Center was not maintained and a * (which is already there) will give access to the Profit Center which is actually meant for the new Role.
The Profit Center has values of around 2500 which is going to be difficult to be maintained. Is there any other method where in we can restrict the Roles at Profit Center level by giving some ranges and if it is please let me know the format?
Regards
Shakeel

Hi
There are two methods that you can maintain:
1. Using the Company Code
2. Using the Company Code simultaneously with Profit Center
The approach that we are following is like that: We have created a excel file which contains the segegrated list of Profit Centers according to Company Code.
Now if you provide the range of Company code ( that can be achieved in authorization fields) the profit center related will automaically be associated by giving *.
We can give the range of profit center at two levels....one at the Organizational Level which would give acess to all the authorization objects present in the Role.
Other is give the range at the Authorization Object Level...that would give access to that particular Authorization Object or the Tcodes related to that.

Hope it will helps you.

Using BADI for changing the Profit Center in FI Document during MIRO

Hi,
We have an requirement of changing the profit center in FI/CO Document while doing MIRO which is different than the one which is posted at the time MIGO.The system is not allowing us to do this and the field profit center during MIRO is not changeble mode and the business requirement is to change this through any SAP enhancements or program.
How can I do this ?
Is there is any standard BADI or User Exit is available for this.
Pleease help me in this and will give valuable points.

Hey,
Use the BADI INVOICE_UPDATE and try with this. Otherwise you try to create Enhancement point to implement your code.
Note: Inside BADI we can't change the runtime value. So, try to use enhancement point.
Rewert back for any clarification.

How to change Profit Center

Dear PS Gurus,
Kindly help me out on this.
My Query:-
I am trying to create a PO using the T-code ME58. When i am selecting the PR and adopting it i get a message as "Profit Center was set to 9999". However i want to post the data to profit center 1300.To do so the system is asking me to to assign the PSG, cost center or other object to that profit center as well.
Diagnosis by the System
You entered profit center 1300 or transferred it from a previous transaction, such as material receipt from an external order. However, the system derived the profit center 9999 from the account assignments.
Kindluy suggest as to where i should go and change the profit center so that i dont get the error message while creating the PO.
Points will be rewarded.
Regards,
Gokul

Dear NAG,
As suggested i checked the Proift Center in t-code OKB9. I found the details as follows:
CoCd - 1000 (IDES AG)
Profit Center - 9000 (IDES Portugal)
Cost Center - This field is blank
Cost Element - 800000
I checked the profit center in the material master also and found that the profit center 1300 is assigned, which is fine. Also i checked the profit center in my project. There too the same profit center has been assigned.
I changed the profit center from 9000 to 1300 in t-code OKB9, and tried making the PO.But still i am getting the same error.I have checked the entire list of profit centers assigned to CoCd 1000 in t-code OKB9 but nowhere i could find the profit center 9999 assigned. I am confused as to from where the system i picking up this profit center (9999). When i checked the details of the profit center 9999 it was found that it is a Dummy profit center but i dont know where it is assigned and from where the system is picking this Profit center.
Request you/anyone to knidly help me out in solving this issue. For your information i am trying this example in IDES.
Please help me out.
Thanks & BEst Regards,
Gokul

Profit Center population in the Vendor and Customer Line items

hello
our client is asking for getting profit center in the vendor and customer line items where in the view FBL5n and fbl1n we are not getting the profit center populated - in the new gl i understand that there is a standard report based on the gl account.
but our business is not satisfied with the report and expecting report at profit center level.
Can any one suggest any way of doing this.
regards,
Vijay

Dear Vijay,
Let me provide you my view of solutioning for this. This is an enahcement that needs to be done
1. You can get the profit center from the given vendor and customer line item at the time of posting, using an enahcement you will be able to capture it.
2. Existing the profit center field is not populated in the BSIK,BSAK,BSID and BSAD tables
3. Hence, in the same enhancement once you capture the profit center , you can write the code that profit center is updated in these tables also.
4. This will help you to do the vendor line item wise selection in the FBL1N, FBL5N profit center wise.
Constraints of this solution:
The only constraint remains where in the for a given document if there are multiple profit center, then the system will do the splitting profit center wise for a vendor line item, which will not populate the profit center in those tables as there is only one field available in the bsid etc.. tables.
This basically would be the one the soltuion where in as seeen from the end user ther eis no change in the front end interface , the way they are doing always they can do.
You need to also take care the % of document splitting means cross profit center postings /cross document splitting charactericstics postings and the volume involved in this. so that you can suggest this to your client.
Regards,
Bharathi.
