Re:Profit center as mandatory for VA01

Hi Experts,
Good Morning,
my issue is if i didnt give profit center in va01 the document should not be saved, so in OMS9 which field sel.group (eg:name-0001,0002.....) i need to go and maintain as "Reqd Entry"
Thanks in advance & points will be assign for useful answers,
SAP UK.

For information, Profit Center is flowing in sale order based on the value you maintain in material master. So the first option is make the material master field as mandatory.
Make the said field in material master as mandatory. To set this, go to OMS9, input 8 in "Field sel.group" and enter. Double click on Profit Center and choose the option "Reqd Entry" and save.
Now without maintaining Profit Center, you cannot save the material master.
So while creating sale order for that material, the profit center will flow automatically and no need to maintain the same.
Of course, for sale order, you can make this field as mandatory and it is blank, it cannot be said. To achieve this, Go to OVA2, block Sales - Item and double click on Procedures. There select Standard Item and click on Fields. There maintain the following:-
Table::::Fld name::::::Description::::::::Screen:::Status
VBAP::::::PRCTR::::::::Profit Center::::::::PKNT:::::00
Now without Profit Center, you cannot save the sale order.
thanks

How to mix default profit center and mandatory profit center ?

Dear all,
I have defined that the profit center is mandatory for all accounts (with the field status group).
For some accounts, I have defined a default profit center in spro.
When I do a posting for those accounts, and I don't key in a value for profit center, I receive the error message "An entry is required in Profit center field for account xxxx". But, the account has a default profit center defined in spro.
Why the default profit center is not taken in consideration before to display the error message ?
Is there any solution ?
Thanks for your help

When the field status group for an account mandates a field, it has to be filled in ENTRY view, i.e. when you are entering the document. System would not let you go further until the field is filled with a valid value. Default profit center configuration gets triggerred subsequently (just before the posting).
Solution: For account for which you have default profit center configuration, change the field status group so profit center is optional.

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.

Mandatory profit center in mm02 for plant

what customizing thread contains config for making a profit center MARC-PRCTR a mandatory field in mm02 for a specific plant?

You can make the Profit Center a mandatory field in the configuration menu of the Material Master, in the field selection. You do this by assigning it to its own field selection group and making this mandatory in the field selection.
Transaction OMSR.
MARC-PRCTR is the field name in full. Click on Field Selection icon (Green rectangle, yellow arrow), you will find various transaction including MM01 and MM02 within. Mark the radio button under the required for these transactions.

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.

Error : profit center is locked for controlling area

Hi Experts
profit center is locked for controlling area. Like this error is comning while doing MIRO, excise invoice. Please let me know the solution. Profit center mentioned in material master is different.

Dear,
This profit center is locked in its master under Indicators tab. Use transaction KE52 to unlock it if you want.
Your concern to Profit Center being picked up is different then Material Master then use transaction OBBH and notice the substitution assigned to your compay code for call up point 2. Then use transaction GGB1 and check any profit center derivation is done.

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)

Hi
In field status group OBC4 and in OB41 (posting key)you can make the profit centre field as mandatory field.
The priorities of SDRO would apply. so you need to give profit centre as mandatory in both ( OBC4 and OB41)

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, 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 (Dimension1) Mandatory- In JE

Dear All
Can i make Cost Center ( Dimension1 ) Mandatory in manual Journal Entry. If i make it mandatory by using stored procedure what would be the impact on the following scenarios where Automatic Journal entry is being created
1. A/P Invoice
2.A/R Invoice
3.Outgoing Payment
4.Incoming Payment
( Will it block me if i am not selecting any cost centers in the above scenarios)
Regards
Rashid

hi rashid,
Good Question
Apply "SP_Transaction Notification" to manual JE stored procedure
should be coded with TransType = 30 as a condition.
In automatic posting of JE profit centres will be assigned according to defintion of profit centres & distribution rules & U can update other profit centres using DTW JE based on below SQL Queries.
For AR Invoice
Select T0.TransId,T0.TransType,T0.RefDate,T0.Line_ID,T0.Account,T0.ProfitCode
From JDT1 T0 Where T0.TransType = 13 and T0.RefDate BETWEEN '[%0] AND '[%1]'
For AP Invoice
Select T0.TransId,T0.TransType,T0.RefDate,T0.Line_ID,T0.Account,T0.ProfitCode
From JDT1 T0 Where T0.TransType = 18 and T0.RefDate BETWEEN '[%0] AND '[%1]'
For incoming & outgoing payment refer to this link.

ERP Sales Order with Profit Center value mandatory in ECC side!

Hi Experts,
I'm working with a scenario using SAP CRM 7.0 and ECC 6.0 EHP4, using ERP Sales Order and ERP Quotation.
The sales order transaction type in ECC side is set up to use profit center at item level as mandatory and I can't find this attribute at Item Details in CRM Webclient. I can't save my order, because this error and the AB Incompletion Log always shows this error.
Any ideas? Is it possible set profit center value in CRM?
Best Regards
Heber Olivar

I hope you are doing well.
We have the same issue, please could you share us how did you resolve this issue?

Profit Center not updated for mov type 511

When we are doing the goods receipt through transaction MIGO with mov
type 511 (Receipt of delivery without charge) as 2nd line item along with
mov. Type 101 as first line item, profit center document is not getting
updated for 2nd line item (GLPCA-MSL), but for 1st line item (mov type
101) profit center getting updated.
If we are doing the GR with movement type 511 alone, profit center
(GLPCA-MSL) updated correctly.

hi,
As per your error i might understand.
please check for second line item Item okay is marked or not.
if its 511 then please check whether Pricing control in MA-master whether its a Moving average or Standard price.
as you said for singular 511 profit center gettng updated then you can very well compare to GR's.

Profit center accounting   activation for 3KEH to work

Hi
I have   document splitting activated, where I have sent the constant as PC - Dummy.
Now in 3KEH - GL acct    interval    for PC , I have defined B/s account   and also defined different PC for the same.
But when I   have transaction   using the GL in 3KEH, it takes   the    DUMMY PC and not the one defined in 3KEH.
So I    unticked the standard assignment in Document spliting and in which case , there is NO profit center picked.
Pl advise whether   I have to activate PC Accounting in controlling, so that   3KEH works.
Thanks
kamala

HI
Even though I activate PCA, the system   uses the setting defined in   'activate docu splitting' ie the constant.
There must be   some logic   on when the     assignment of GL acct    to PC based on derivation rule    in 3KEH will   apply. Does it apply only to FI transactions, or   even to the FI docu generated from other modules.    From the testing in F-02 or FB60,   I do not see    the 3KEH setting being used.   System   reads   the   one in   'activate docu splitting'.
Thanks   for any input on the above.
