Profit Center value for Creation of Cost Center in MDG F

Hi
I am using MDG-F 6.1. I want to create cost center using change request type OG_W003 ( Cost Center single processing) without uploading intial data from ECC check table ( CEPC- Procit Center Master Data ).
Is this possible as there is warning message while creation of CC?
As there is warning message befor submitting of CR as
'Field "Profit Center": Field should be filled because Profit Center Accounting is active'
If we go ahead for with final processing then again one warning message
'The status of change request 86 does not allow for object changes'
After Approval active CC stores in MDG database table and not replicated to ECC even assigned Edition with flag'Immediate replicate' .
Also one more question How referance data ( Like Controlling Area/Company Codes) are retrived in MDG F in case of add on deployement?
Does intial upload is requird for this as well?
In ECC it is possible to create CC without PC.

Hello Sanjay
For Interface and for ALE setup Global company code is must. You are dealing with cross-company transfers since you are using MDG and ECC. In the ALE distribution layer, it is required to set up the global company code for the program to understand for which company code the master data is created. This setting will not affect any process. Tcode- ob72 and obb5.

Error when changing a Company Code for a given Cost Center

Hello Friends ,
I'm trying to modify a company code value for a given cost center in KS02 and I get the below error. The error message receommends to change the analysis period ( not sure what it is..) but when I click edit > Analysis period from tool bar I still get the below message , is there way to get over come this issue ?
Thanks in advance ,
Field change Company Code is not possible (transaction data already exists)
Message no. KS134
Diagnosis
To ensure the consistency of existing data, you can only change object Company Code if no transaction data exists in the change period; that is, neither plan data nor actual data has been posted.
As transaction data already exists, it is not possible to change objects in this time period.
Procedure
If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...".

Thank you Vishal . I have 3 cost centers with 2 having validity period ( from 01/01/1950 to 12/31/9999) and third one had 2 records 12/30/2004 to 12/26/2009 and 12/27/2009 to 12/31/9999 ) for the third one it did allow to change the validty period and I could change the comapny code for my profit center . But for first 2 somehow it doesnt allow to change the validity periods. And when I run some reports against these 2 cost centers to see if there is any activity I dont see any data .
Could you please give your ideas ?
Thanks alot .

How to fetch the data from the table COEP for WBS element,cost center,,,,,?

Hi,
I would like to retrive the data from the table COEP ,based on KOKRS,BELNR fields.
I need the output for Cost centre, cost element, wbs element,net work ,activity.
These values are storing OBJNR ,OBJNAR_1,OBJNR_2,OBJNR_N3.
But here always these field are not giving the correct values.
for example : for one record COST CENTRE vlaue is storing in OBJNR_1 field,
for one record COST CENTRE vlaue is storing in OBJNR_2 field,
for one record COST CENTRE vlaue is storing in OBJNR_3 field.
Here SAP has used a generic approach for this.
How can I dispaly the values in this case ?
Thanks and Regards
Srinivas.N

Hi,
I am asking, how can we say OBJNR_1 value alwyas belongs to cost center ?
USPOB is not filling always.

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)

Best praxis for determining a cost center for an HR org unit in PPM ?

Hello all.
We have defined the HR Org structure directly in PPM backend. Later the intention is that an interface should transfer this data from HR.
The HR orgstructure defined works fine for the staffing process (with "resource manager via responsible organization").
We have however run into some problems with the MLC & costing part. The intention is to use manual MLC linking tasks/phases to PS WBS-elements (task based controlling).
If we leave the org unit field blank in the cProject project project definition we run into the message "No account assignment exists for the project defintion - no costing" and the systems rolls back from the assignment made.
If we however assign an orgunit in the project defintion we instead get the message "No cost center could be determined for org unit 123...".
<u>We therefore need to be able to determine a cost center for the Org Unit assigned to be able to proceed. How is this then best done?</u>
There is a master cost center assigned to the orgunit in HR but not in PPM backend where this option does not seem to be available.
With task based controlling the cost center does not really matter so it could possibly be hardcoded via a BADI (?) but is this really the way this should be done?
Any suggestions?
Thanks / Anders

Hi and thanks for the reply.
We will test with an ALE replicated structure so that the object ID becomes the same in the two systems as soon as possible.
Pending that we will try the BADI option. Here I am however not sure what it is we really expect the BADI to do. Which field should be populated with the cost center (the fields available are mainly project characteristics)?
I also eventually found some information regarding this in the PPM 4.0 help. I enclose info regarding this below.
a) http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ppm400/helpdata/en/index.htm
b) choose Collaboration projects>Accounting Integration>General Information about Accounting integration>Derivation of Organizational data.
As I read this the system derives this as follows in case of task-based or role-based costing with no resource assignment:
1) Look for the two BADIs mentioned to derive the cost center
2) If no result there it looks for an org unit in the cProject header (where I assume having the Org Unit with the same Object ID in backend and ERP enables this option)
3) If no result there the system looks for a "requesting cost center" in the account assignment object (WBS element or internal order)

Do you mean that you want to read the cost centre group hierarchy for a cost centre? So that instead of entering a cost centre group and reading down the hierarachy until you get to the cost centre codes at the bottom, you want to enter a cost centre and then read up the hierarchy until you get to the cost centre group at the top of the hierarchy. If so, I don't think there is a function module to do what you want. The cost centre group hierarchy data is held in table SETNOTE, so you could have a look at that.

Validation for GL Account & Cost Center combination

Limiting value for unplanned delivery cost

Hi,
I want to set up a limiting value for unplanned delivery cost ( Say the unplanned delivery cost should not exceed 10% of the total invoice value ).
How to achieve this functionality.

Hello,
There are no checks for unplanned delivery cost and you should explore the possibility of user exits to implement this functionality.
Cheers !

BADI for IW31 which has values of Plant,Fundcenter,cost center

Hi,
My requirement is that While running IW31,if the first four characters of Settlement Rule(Cost Center) and FundsCenter is not equal to Planning Plant then an error message should be raised . Can you suggest any appropriate BADI or User Exit for this?
Path for Funds Center-->Go to>Assignment--->Funds Management
Thanks
K Srinivas

Hi Srinivas,
In order to find Badi or User Exit, you can put a STOP point at class CL_EXITHANDLER and in method GET_INSTANCE, CALL METHOD cl_exithandler=>get_class_name_by_interface and then you can execute the Tcode and then at every click it will stop in debugging & give the name of the Exit or Badi.
Hope it Helps...

In Rows, Create a struture. Using New Selection, You can restrict the New Value to the cost center (Restrict again on those some cost centers) and material. And for this New Characteristic, you can have a attribute.

Vendor invoice - Profit Center not being pulled from cost-center

Hi Guys,
Please help me out with this:
On the vendor expense line item, i am using an account which has a Field status group which is cost center - optional, business area - required and profit center - required. The cost center master has the profit center and business area both populated.
But when i try just populating the cost center on the expense line item, the profit center is not being populated automatically which it should. Can you please guide me what the problem can be? Is it in the field status group or maybe in the linking of the cost center and profit center.
Thanks for your help.
-MS

Hi,
Are you talking about vendor line item or expenses line item?
if you are talking about expense line item,check profit center is activated or not and validity period.
check profit center assignment in KS03 t.code.
if your talking about vendor line item,what version of SAP are you using?
if your using clasical GL and PCA,process T.code 1KEK - Transferring Payables/Receivables .
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Rau
