Profit Centre in F-38 and F-55

Hi
Good day to you.
In Statistical Posting in Vendor and Customer (T Codes F-38 and F-55), Profit Centre field is not available.
We tried to achieve Posting to Profit Centre Field in F-38 by substituting the value entered in Assignment Field (ZUONR) into Profit Centre.
The following is what we did:
1. First we said If Company Code = "XXXX" then Substitute Profit Centre Field with value in Assignment Field.
It worked fine for entries through TCode F-02 as well as F-38 (meaning the values in Assignment Field was substituted in Profit Centre Field.
But since we wanted to restrict this Substitution to only the Transactions posted through F-38, the Prerequisite was changed to
2. If Company Code = "XXXX" and Transaction Code = F-38, then Substitute Profit Centre Field with value in Assignment Field
and posted a Transaction through F-02, Profit Centre Field is not substituted with Value in ZUONR.
But strangely even for Transactions through Transaction Code F-38, Profit Centre Field is not substituted with Value in ZUONR.
If anybody could throw light on why this prerequisite is not working and how to get around it.
I would be really very grateful for all assistance in resolving this matter.
Regards
Siddique

Do a test with the simulation on Substitutions
From menu: Substitution / Simulate
An other option is:
Extras and use from there the trace.
perhaps it is little type error in your substitution

Lock the profit centre change via CJ20N and CNMASS tcodes

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement where in user should not be allowed to change the profit centre of Project Definition and WBS via tcode CJ20N and change the profit centre of Project Definition, WBS, Netowok and Activity via tcode CNMASS.
I could achieve the profit centre lock for PD, WBS and Network by Implementing BADIs PROJECTDEF_UPDATE, WORKBREAKDOWN_UPDATE and WORKORDER_UPDATE.. The implemented BADI 'WORKORDER_UPDATE 'is reachable while changing profit centre of Activiy as well. But the details of the changes of activity is not visibile inside BADI.
If anybody has any input for this, it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
RK

Thanks Martin,
Small scenario here..I have created a Validation and In prerequisite of Step001, I have kept a condition Transaction Code = CNMASS. Structure AFVGD is visible.
I have created an Exit PLOCK, but when I keep a Break Point in the ABAP Routine of PLOCK(Both soft and hard Break Points), the Control doesnt stop in those break points when I run the transaction CNMASS.
I think some understanding in the concept is missing in my part. Please suggest to help me fill this gap.

Profit centre - block for posting and put as inactive status

Hi Guru,
I want to block a profit centre from being posted to AND put the status as inactive.
I checked on the Lock indicator and the profit centre automatically becomes inactive. However, I can still post to the PC.
I noticed that if the PC has an "Active" status and the lock indicator on, then I cannot post to the PC.
What have I missed? Do I need to make the setting in a special sequence??
Linda

Hi,
Here is the step-by-step:
1.Go to T-code KE52 and call up your profit center
2. Go to the Indicators tab and put a check in the Lock indicator
3. Save:
Note that this will save your changes in an Inactive Status. You may be thinking that is a good thing and that youu2019re doneu2026I was. But youu2019re not. If you go to FB50 or 9KE0 and try to post to that profit center, it will let you post away all day long. One more step.
Click the Match stick button to Activate your new state:
Do not mess with the Validity periods unless youu2019ve got a good reason to. The real key here is setting the Lock indicator and making sure that is Active. Think of it as Actively locking your profit center.
Thank you

Material Master: Division and Profit Centre

Hello,
In the material master, is it possible to have combination of Profit centre with respect to Division?
(that is for perticular Division only certain Profit centres will be applicable)

No not possible. Both are separate entries. Business area is now obsolete. Profit centre wise P&L and balance sheets can be made. Profit centres are generally at plant level while business area is at product level. There is nothing to assign them together.
Thanks

Deleting Profit Centres and removing them from Profit Centre Groups

Hi,
I have recently deleted some 3000+ unused profit centres from our system. However the problem I'm having is that these existed in a number of profit centre groups and the values are still
displaying with the text "no valid master record".
Is there a quick way to remove these from the profit centre groups as I don't relish the prospect of removing them all manually. The standard hierarchy is not a problem they have autoatically been removed from there.
thanks in advance.
Paul.

Hi,
The deletion of the profit centres has been completed and wasn't a problem.
It's the removal of the values of these profit centres from various profit centre groups that is causing a problem. They still appear in the groups even though the underlying master data no longer exists.
Paul.

Profit Centres and Distribution Rules

Hi, Is there someone who can help me about a problem with cost accounting?
I've set profit centres, distribution rules (created and linked to profit centres), I've linked accounts to distribution rules so the "profit centre report" shows all the expenses related to each PC/DR. I also can see the table with all the parameters I set. My question is: how can I check (or is it possible to check) if a specific cost (account) is more than the limit I set in the distribution rules? In other terms: If I set 10.000 EUR on DR called "training expenses" with account linked "040001" and then I charge this account with 20.000 EUR; is it possible to have a notification or something in the "profit centre report" or in the "table of PC and DR" who tells: "ehy man, you spent too much!!!" (or at least the possibility to have DR values in the PC report?).
Thanks a lot in advance and sorry about the length of my post.

No but you can use the Budget features of B1 to do something similar. If you turn on Budgeting from the System Initialization>General Settings>Budget You can warn on devations from Budget or block devations from budget, on PO, GRPO and JEs

Raw material profit centre document is not generated

Hi All
When i maintain profit centre in raw material and do GR/IR, only accounting doc is generated. The profit centre mentioned in material is reflected against both accounts in the entry. (rm inventory a/c and GR/IR clearing a/c)
When I go and see report of that particular profit centre I dont see any posting. Why is it so?
Can u help me out?
Regards
Rakesh

I am certain that a profit center document gets created for materials that have moving average price.
If the profit center in the material master was entered after the goods receipt, then the amount is still posted to a default profit center, but not to the profit center you expect.
first find your movement in MB51 or in purchase order history tab of ME23N.
Beeing in the material document, click the finance documents button at header level in document info tab. A pop-up appears where you have to select to where to go, either to the accounting doc or to the profit center document.
If you see this profit center doc in this pop-up, then you can be sure that it is posted to a profit center. go into this document to see to which profit center the posting was made.

Populating Profit Centre Field while doing Transaction for Vendor/Customer

Dear Experts,
I have cheked in FSG of GL Code of Vendors/Customers where "Profit Centre " is a optional field.
I have cheked in OB41 also for posting key relating to vendors/customers "Profit Centre" field is set as optional field.
We need to make entry in the Profit Centre Field for both Vendors and Customers whicle doing manual posting.
How can we bring that field which is not populated while doing transaction with posting keys of vedors and customers.
Regards,
Alok

Dear Sayeed,
I am agree with u, but since in SAP Vendor /Customer Line Item takes automatically profit centre from the other line items.
Here is an example:-
We have different profit centre for plant(104001) and coprorate office(106001)
Customer billing is done at plant then the entry will be:-
Customer A/c Debit (by default it will take 104001 profit centre)
Sales A/c Credit with Profit Centre 104001
In Corporate Office We Receive the sales proceeds:-
In Coming Bank a/c Corporate Debit with Profit Centre 106001
Customer A/c Credit (It will take by default profit centre 106001)
By this If we genrate Profit Centre Wise Trial Balance then all Customers Debit will lying with Plant Trial
and Customer Credit Balance will lying in Corporate Treial Balance giving a mis information to the auditors.
For solving this we need to populate the Profit Centre field in Customer line item so that while doing the received entry we can selct the Plant Profit Centre (104001) in Customer line item so that the Customer balance become Nil in Plant Trial.
Hopw you understand our requirement.

Alok

Profit centre clearing account.

Hi Experts,
Please tell me what is profit centre clearing account. What is the purpose of profit centre clearing account.
Our client is having say plant A and B.
COmpany Code 1. Profit centre is for Plant A and profit centre for plant B and one common profit centre other than this.
Now when f.01 is excuted for all GLs, there is no balance in profit centre clearing account. When you run the f.01 for Plant A profit centre it shows the blance. If you run for B is shows balance. If you run for head office is shows balance in profit centre clearing GL account.
is there any reason for this system behaviour and why. where profit centre clearing account is configured.
Please guide.
Zunaid

Hi Zunaid,
If you are on New GL and you have activated document splitting function, then you need t assign zero balance account. It is mandatory to see the Balance sheet at the profit center level.
Lets take a example, you have transferred the inventory form Plant A to Plant B
Inventory ( Profit center B) Dr
To Inventory ( Profit center A)
But after document splitting , the entry will be
Inventory (PC B)   Dr
   To Inventory ( PC A)
Zero Balance Account (PC A)   Dr
   To Zero Balance Account (PC B)
Through this entry, you can see the balance sheet at the profit center level i.e. debit and credit is equal at profit center level.
This is the reason you will see the balance in zero balance account at individual profit center level only. Because at company code level it will be knock-off i.e. always zero.

Need Profit centre field as mandatory field in the sales order

Dear All,
Normally Profit center data maintained in the material master, same data will get coipied to the sales order while creating sales order in VA01 transaction.
My requirement is if profit center data is not maintained/available in the sales order system should give the error message
For this I need Profit center field as mandatory field in the sales order(VA01).
Can you please give possibilities ASAP.
Give the SHD0 maintenance step by step.
Regards,
Murali.

Hi Murali
I beleive that you are talking about the Profit centre field not maintined in sales order hence not picked in delivery and billing and there is an FI posting error (GL account error) because of that
Profit centre is maintained in MMR and the same flows thro the sales cycle and i am quite sure if maintained in MMR it will be picked automatically and no need to make it mandatory in sales order( as the purpose is already solved)
But there is no standard option in SAP like (even if Account assignment category of the material is not maintained in MMR it can be given in VF02 and the document can be released for accounting) to give the Profit centre in the billing and release the same
Profit centre field field is picked from masters and flows in the entire flow and that field is greyed out (like no option of inserting it inbetween)
As told by others incompletion log in sales doc type will take care for future orders and for the already created orders the standard option is cancel billing, reverse delivery and open the sales order and give Profit centre field and process it (if only a few orders are there)
But if the already created orders are many then from the FI Area you need to go for development ( we also faced this issue as profit center not maintained in MMRs and hence accounting got hit and there were tons of billing docs and our FI consultant made some development to open it and solve it) FI consultant should be able to do this for already created orders
Instead of making Profit centre field as mandatory field in the sales order better make it a mandatory entry in MMR

Goods Receipt entry going to dummy profit centre

hello experts,
Goods Receipt entry is going to dummy profit centre, dont know how and why ?
I have checked the PO, Material Master, WBS etc. where the desired profit centres are mentioned.
We have a relation ship of plant=profit centre = business area in our structure.
Goods Receipt entry should go desired profit centres only AND NOT TO DUMMY PROFIT CENT..
Pl advise.
Thnks
Pravin / Vinod

Hope you have checked substituion at OKC9.
Make sure that the account assignment is WBS element only in PO. If not then, please chek whether profit center is assigned to that cost object.
Easily you can monitor profit center assignments at 1KE4.

Ravi
