Re : Importance for Funds Centers

hii
any body please tell me . what is importance of funds center in financial accounting apartform that profit center, business area.

Fund center is basically is mater data element in Funds Management (Budget Planning and Execution) . further,the organizational unit in Funds Management is called the "financial management area" (FM area).
Funds centers are used to represent organizational units (areas of responsibility, departments, projects) and are arranged in a hierarchy. At the level of fund center, you can enter the budget amount.
you can not create the balce sheet at the level of fund center as on profit center & business area level.
Thanks

System asking for Fund Center for Reconciliatation GL-S.Creditors

Hi,
I followed the steps as per the note, Dump Error due to Fund Management module activation now the dump error is gone, but I am getting one more error message while posting any transaction.
For example- I am posting a Vendor Invoice in F-02.
I am entering Cost Center in Expense Line. But system is showing error message for Vendor Line, that is Vendor A/C.
Error Message:
No funds center entered/derived in item 00001 (TY01/50101400/)
Message no. FI313
Diagnosis
In company code (&2) the component Funds Management is active. This requires the entries or the derivation of a funds center.
You can use the following elements to derive the funds center: company code TY01/ account 50101400 or CO object .
Procedure
Enter a funds center or ensure that the funds center can be derived from the possible assignments by:
assigning a funds center in the commitment items- master record or maintaining the assigning of a funds center to the CO object.
Note***GL A/C 50101400 is S.Creditors account. Now, I am not understanding why system needs Fund Center for S.Creditors in Vendor Line while posting Vendor Invoice. We have assigned Statistical Commitment Item in S.Creditor GL and hence there is no Fund Center assigned to it.

Sorry for that. Its noted.
Just for some clarification. Fund Center and Commitment Items are mandatory fields, but the issue I am facing is completely different.
I checked with FMDERIVE in my system and checked the pattern for Fund Centers and Commitment Items created. Only P/L items and Cost Centers are created as Fund Centers and Commitments Items.
Also, the S.Creditors GL is not a Cost Element, hence there is no link to Commitment Item- FMRULES.
1. Even though, the S.Creditors has been assigned with Commitment 1.
Commitment Item-1 Master Conditions as below:
Financial trans.-30
Commitment Item Category- 3
Is this conditions correct?
2. We have Fund Center- Dummy as well.
Can you suggest me, how to configure this in FMDERIVE?

Funds Centers Security

Hi,
we are trying to manage security on funds centers 101515,102515,103515,104515, etc.
If I use 10515 in the funds centers field the system is reading 10 only which is not what we want.
Is there another way to isolate everything starting with 10 and endind with 515?
Thank you

That was a rather weak answer from me as well to take a potluck shot at it.
Other possibilities to use are + or % or # depending of the data type of te field, but using wildcards (and ranges) is usually a bit ugly anyway. As your fund center naming convention seems to have at least 2 ranges in it (which you could use when searching for example...), you will probably have to live with the fact that you will need to maintain the 10 values each time.
Other options are:
- To use a different field which can be related to whatever the 1st 3 digits are, and check that there are no DUMMY field values checked in important places.
- To reconsider the naming convention.
- To use derived roles and make the field an organizational level relevant field.
I know of one TM implementation where option 3 was chosen, and they were mostly happy. But the bugger is that it does make you inflexible when someone comes with a special request, or replicates problems when some admin makes a human mistake in the parent role (like popping a * into some object they haven't heard of before...).
Keep it open for a while. Perhaps someone else knows about other options or clever tricks?
Cheers,
Julius

Reassignment of commitment items & fund centers in open PR, PO & MIGO docs

Hi
We are using Fund Management (BCS) in our system since last one year. Now starting from next fiscal year ( 01.04.2009) we want to replace some of the existing fund centers and commitment items with either newly created fund centers & commitment items or existing ones. We will be changing FM derivation strategy too.
How should one go about it? Whats should be the strategy and procedure for replacing the commitment items & fund centers in open PR, POs & other open document. I know there is option of reassignment of fund centers and commitment items using reassignment derivation strategy. But I am not clear about the steps involved and strategy one should use while doing so.
Pawan

Hello Pawan,
You can also combine reassignment with closing operations (Carryforward with reassignment)
Pls check the link, under 'Closing Operations -> Derivation Strategy for Reassignments with Closing Operations'
By doing so, you can carry forward for example open PO's assigned to given account assingment in 2008 to a new account assignment in 2009
Reassignment programs RFFMCHAN and RFFMCHAT are normally used when Wrongly assigned documents or changes in the responsibility areas of the functional assignment necessitate account assignment changes within the year, or when PSM-FM is implemented later than other components.
I hope this will help
Kind regards

Screen validation for funds management account assignments

Dear Experts,
I am having the requirement that, functional area has to be displayed based on the budget structure. We are using Fund, Fund Centers, Commitment Item and Functional Area. When user posts the entry all the functional areas are displayed. In this case, user is asking, in the F4 option only functional area relevant to the GL Account has to be displayed.
Can anyone help me; Is there any other way to achieve this requirement?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Aswin

Hi,
'only functional area relevant to the GL Account' what you mean? it's about addresses(where commitment items derives from accounts). And in which transaction do you need it?
You need to create own search help. In required field(for required transaction) find out which Search help is using(eg in some cases its COBL_EX_FKBER), so you need to enhance it

Error when budgeting for Funded Program in FMBBC

Dear All,
I have activated funded program in the spro config : Activate Account Assignment Elements and we wish to use funded program for minor projects. Apart from Funded program, we are using funds center for department budget.
when i budget for funded program in FMBBC along with commitment item I am getting an error as below.
Enter a funds center
Message no. FMKU031
My question is why should I enter funds center, i want to budget for funded program and through derive funded program for budget consumption.
Please advice what steps/configuration must be performed to resolve this as it is stopping testing.
Thanks and regards
Abishay Solomon

Hi,
You must use the following master data elements in Funds Management:
Commitment items
You use commitment items to map out functional units (expenditure and revenue structures) in a hierarchy. They divide up the content of the budget and the business transactions affecting liquidity into revenue items and expenditure items.
Funds centers
You use funds center to represent the organizational units (responsibility areas, departments, projects) of your organization.
See the online help:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/f0/ca3480260211d28a430000e829fbbd/content.htm]
So, you will need to use Commitment item and Funds Center along with your Funded Program
Kind regards

Two fund centers in 1 order

Dear
In maintenance order is it possible to assign to fund centers in one work order ?
Please have the look at FMDERIVER T code . Here we could assign the fund center against cost objects.
In my business for one major equipments mechanical, electrical they are doing the jobs. thier work centers, cost center are different. The fund should be deducted respects with thier end. Here we need only one order to carry the job
Thenna

Hello Jack,
This scenario is not supported by SAP beacuse you need to create one order using two different order types which is not possible.
Also pricing procedure is determined using sales area + customer pricing procedure +document pricing procedure.
So you cannot have two pricing procedures in same order. Also, pricing procedure is at header level so it is applicable to all items.
You can determine plant from below records in given order only.
1.Customer Material Information Record.
2.Customer Master Record and
3.Material Master Record.
If system finds plant in CMIR then it will not go till Material Master.
Order types are no where related to plant. They are on the basis of sales area.
Hope it helps
Reward if helpful.

Priyanka

Creating Fund Centers from Cost Centers

Just as you can create commitment items from GL accounts using FIPOS is there a transaction for creating Fund Centers from GL accounts?
How can I ensure that my Commitment Items are linked to my Cost Elements?
How do I ensure that my Fund Centers are linked to Cost centers?

Hi,
Master data in FM is created separately; you cannot 'copy' it from other components, like CO, FI, etc.
Commitment items could be linked to G/L either in the master data of the G/L (FS00) or by derivation strategy (FMDERIVE)
Fund centres could be linked to Cost centres via derivation strategy (FMDERIVE).

Eli

Hi Kevin,
I assume you mean this extension here -

From what I can tell that does not yet support VS 2013. The source code is of course available, so you could attempt to fix it up yourself and tell us the result.

My iphone is broken,and i came to store to change a new one today. When I come home, I found I lost my backup and may be mistake is made during before backup.The information in my previous iphone is really important for me? how can I get the backup back?

my iphone is broken,and i came to store to change a new one today. When I come home, I found I lost my backup and may be mistake is made during before backup.The information in my previous iphone is really important for me? how can I get the backup back?

If you don't have a backup then the only possible solution is to go back to the store and see if they can get your old phone and create a backup of that. I know very often that Apple employees will wipe the returned iPhones clean before shipping them back to wherever they ship them.
When you say your old phone was "broken" does this mean it is dead and won't turn on?
Do you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, or a clone that might have this info on it?
Other than that I hate to say you may be out of luck. Time Machine and/or a cloning program performed regularily will inevitably save your a** in situations like this.
Good luck

How to get balance sheet report for profit centers

hi
how to get balance sheet report for profit centers, is there any transcation code to get that report or i need to create a report painter report for this

Hi,
You can use T. code KE5Z for actual line items.
More to this you can use program RFBILA10 (Use T. code SE38 and program RFBILA10) for complete blance sheet.
The transaction is for special purpose ledger but this program RFBILA10 can be used for profit center balance also.
In selection, you can give ledger name which is generally 8A for profit center ledger.

CS5.5 Import for runtime sharing and preview problem

Hello
I'm having a strange issue with CS5.5 and the import for runtime sharing settings. Here's what I'm doing: I create two .fla's, Export.fla and Import.fla. In Export.fla, I create a shape, select it, press F8 and tick export for runtime sharing, to create a really simple exported movie clip. I click the exported symbol in the library, press Ctrl-C, switch to Import.fla and press Ctrl-V. Everything ok so far, the symbol is imported for runtime sharing.
The first problem I have at this stage is that changes I do to the exported symbol in Export.fla are not reflected in Import.fla, only in the final .swf's I can see the changes. Also, unlike in CS4 and CS5 I cannot "Update" the imported symbol in the library right-click menu, to make changes to Export.fla visible in Import.fla. The menu entry is just greyed out...
So I tried to use Authortime sharing, in the Symbol Properties for the imported symbol in Import.fla. I link the source to the symbol in Export.fla, and once I do that, everything is completely borked. The previously imported symbol is no longer imported. Whenever it is changed in Export.fla, it gets an "Export for Runtime Sharing" tick in its Properties in Import.fla, and worst, it is not shared at runtime, like I need it to.
Can anyone tell me how to get the "normal" CS/4/5 behaviour in CS5.5: a runtime shared symbol, that can be updated in Import.fla (I dont care if manually or auotmatically) when I change it in Export.fla, and which also is runtime shared?
Cheers
Ulf

Hi, JonnyDiamond
Thank you for reporting the issue for runtime sharing settings affected by authortime sharing. It is fixed for parent symbols in Flash Pro CS6, but we just recognized it is not for nested items.
As an alternative to deleting and re-copying the symbol, we see the following steps restore the original settings of the nested bitmap symbol (png in your case) for importing runtime shared library. After you open Bitmap Properties dialog of the bitmap symbol, go to ActionScript section and:
1. Uncheck Export for ActionScript
2. Check Import for runtime sharing
3. Input the path to Library.swf in URL
4. Click OK twice
Please try these steps to see if they work for you. If they do, the simalr steps can be processed via JSFL script. It would be something like this:
//// To restore the settings to import runtime shared library //////
// Get Library items
var myItems = fl.getDocumentDOM().library.items;
// Store an item from myItems
var myItem;
// Path to runtime shared library. Change this to your path
var pathToRSL = "Library.swf";
// Go through Library
for (var i = 0; i < myItems.length; i++)
          myItem = myItems[i];
// Change the condition to suit to your Library
          if(myItem.itemType == "bitmap" &&
             myItem.name.split(".").pop() == "png" &&
             myItem.linkageExportForRS == true )
    switchRSSettings(pathToRSL);
// Disable Export for runtime sharing and
// enable Import for runtime sharing
function switchRSSettings(path)
          myItem.linkageExportForRS = false;
          myItem.linkageExportInFirstFrame = false;
          myItem.linkageExportForAS = false;
          myItem.linkageImportForRS = true;
          myItem.linkageURL = path;
///////////////////////// End of Script ////////////////////
We hope this would help you workaround the issue. Again, thank you for your report!
Thanks

Transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers

Hi,
When I run transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers, all my offsetting accounts (accumulated depreciation accounts) are shown except for the ones for asset classes:
- Buildings
- PC & Small Applications
On the FI side, I can see transactions being posted to their relative accumulated depreciation accounts but I do not see this on the CO side when transaction KSB1 is executed. I have checked the config and the account assignments look correct. Also, the assets created have cost centers assigned to them.
Could you please help!
Thanks,
- Deki

Hi Murali,
I have one depreciation expense account (P/L Account) which is also a cost element.
During depreciation run, the different asset classes are supposed to hit the depreciation account above and their corresponding accumulated depreciation accounts (These are Balance Sheet Accounts and I have separate accounts for each asset class .. ie: Accumulated Depreciation for Furniture and Fixture for asset class Furniture and Fixture).
Now when I run transaction KSB1 - Display Actual Cost Line Items for Cost Centers, all my accumulated depreciation accounts are shown except for the ones for these asset classes:
- Buildings
- PC & Small Applications
Any thoughts on why the above aren't showing?
Thanks! I really appreciate your help!

Plan cost line items for cost centers report

Hello,
I am displaying the report: Plan cost line items for cost centers and when I display the details of a line item it appears a document number, where could I display this document?
I have tried to display it in FB03 transaction but it seems not to be this kind of document.
On the other hand in the field Business transaction it appears RKP6, what is the meaning of this field?
Thank you very much

Hi Beatriz Amezua ,
For displaying plan line items for cost center - KSBP and for display of individual plan document : KABP
RKP6 means "Planning Activity Dependent Costs"
Like in FI module, the business transaction have been codified and the list you can find in KANK transaction , mention your controlling area, menu -- Groups -- Display Groups
