Restrict list of cost ctrs in SRM PO change transaction

We restrict which cost ctrs users can select when shopping in SRM by maintaining the CNT attribute in PPOMA_BBP. When users then shop they see a drop down list of cost ctrs. When the same user changes a PO in SRM, they do not see a drop-down list of cost ctrs to assign a new PO item to (nor do they see the binoculars to search for a cost ctr). In fact they can simply type any cost ctr - even one that is not in their user attribute in PPOMA_BBP.
Is there any way to restrict the cost ctrs users can assign when adding a new line to a PO?
thanks
Neil

Hi Harsha,
The P.Os that were marked as Transaction completed in SRM system can no longer be changed.
This means the P.O can not be changed and the same can not be deleted.
This is the standard SAP SRM functionality.
1. Please do not use 'Transaction Completed' option to close the P.Os.Instead you can mark the 'No further Confirmations expected' and 'No further Invocies expected' check boxes under statistics tab of P.O item data. This would remove all the commitments against the purchase order item and would enable any Project closure in case Network or WBS is used as Account assignment for this P.O item.
2. In case the P.O needs to be deleted then use function module BBP_PO_DELETE in backend ECC system to delete SRM (EBP) P.Os in ECC.
Hope this answers your query and resolves your issues.
Please let us know in case of any further clarifications.
Regards,
Teja

  • Blocking Cost Center in SRM

    Hi eveyone,
    We are working in SRM 4.0, classic scenario. I need to block certain cost centers during shopping. I have delimited those cost centers in PPOSA_BBP. Hence, now they are not valid in the org structure any more. But, while shopping the cost center is still visible & available.
    Can anyone please tell me how can I block the cost centers, so that they are no available for shopping in SRM.
    Also, I tried deleting the object assignment also, but that did not help either.
    Also, kindly note that I cannot block those cost centers in R3, since we require them, incase if there is a need, then the PR can be raised from R3.
    Kindly help.
    Regards,
    Bhakti.

    Hi Joshi,
    Go to T-code OOCU_RESP and you need to select the rule number...it might be customized. So chose that..for Example for Cost centre manager it might be 4000001.
    Select the rule number and press enter, Here you will find the list of cost centre manager for your SRM system.
    click on Overview and press Ctrl +F and type the use id of the user(manager). If he is maintained as as Cost centre manager.
    Once you found an entry click on that which takes you to next screen where you will be able to see the list of cost centres he is responsible.
    If you remove any cost centre from there So from next time if any user selects that particular CC since there is no CC approvers, enduser will not be able to see the approver.
    This way you can remove the cost centre from a particular user.
    Please let me know if you are still facing any issues.

    Please Check  field status group assigned to the depreciation G/l account as well as G/L account of Asset   by using Transaction Code OBC4
    Make the cost center as optional instead of mandatory
    Check your settings in Transation code  ACSET

    Hi:
             Please check in KA03 , enter GL account there and check if this has been created as Cost element. If yes then you will need to enter cost center .KOSTL cost center. This cost center requirement in FI-AA is usually derived from what you maintain in ACSET.

  • Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 5500

    Hello Experts,
    I need your help for one of the issue related to the cost center.
    While posting the accounting document I am getting the below error -
    Invocie Nr are: 95867831 and 95876503
    Message is: Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 5500
    52301203
    Message no. F5808
    Diagnosis
    The value for field "Cost Ctr" in the interface to Financial Accounting
    is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field
    selection for G/L account "52301203" in company code "5500" linked to
    the field selection for posting key "40".
    Looking in the history of one of the two contracts I find the following:
    Invoice 0095639591 from 16.11.2010, an accounting document was created
    and in the accounting document CO object is cost center (and not COPA)
    14901.
    Account 52301203 has Field status group Z103 (cost - mad CostCenter)
    Our user is saying that (eq 3529183592, invoice 95639591)
    should have a cost center assigned in the equipment master. After
    entering that cost center (14901) the accounting document was created
    correctly.
    However when we checked the "DefaultAcctAssgmnt" of the cost element 52301203, the filed Cost center is empty.
    Can you please help with your suggessions?

    from Note 518060 - FAQ: Physical inventory
    12. Question:
    Can I manually specify an account assignment (for example cost center) during the update of inventory differences?
    Answer:
    No. No. A direct entry of an account assignment for difference postings in the physical inventory (both MI07 and MI10...) is not possible.
    A differentiation to different account assignments is only possible via a differentiation of the cost elements - refer to Note 13423.
    In my words: FI has to change the field status

    But still sytem showing above error message.
    But same gl when i am using in J1IS and Gener posting Cost center picking automatically.
    Please suggest me on this.

    Hello,
    J1IH transaction does not update business area and you can check this in the note 945101.
    I suggest you to manually enter the bussiness area since the current system design is like that.
    So when you go into the detail screen please ensure that you enter business area at each prompt from the system. THis is because the system validates both the balances for each account & business area,
    so you might have to enter it twice.
    The system will dump when you try to exit the transaction without or forcing yourself out of an error.
    This is peculiar to this transaction.
    I hope it answer your inquiry.
    Best Regards,
    Vanessa.

  • New Value addition in Restricted List under Rules not getting reflected

    Hi,
    I have created a custom rule for a custom profile. In the rule i have configured a metadata named as Reviewer. Under restricted values of reviewer i have put in 2 values.
    It is getting reflected properly in the profile check in form.
    But now when i add a new value, it is not getting reflected. Is restart required to get that field populated with new value ?. I have already published the schema base and static files.
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Boopathy P

    In your metadata field definition, your field is defined as having an option list. Does the value you just added to the restricted list also exist in the overall list of values for the field?
    For example, your list has values "a", "b", and "c". In your profile restricted list, you have "a" and "b". Now have you added "d" to the restricted list, which does not appear in the defined list for the metadata field?

  • Report to see cost of  PM order on Cost Ctr

    Hi friends ,
    I have created an PM order with reference to Equipment E1 having Cost Ctr C1.
    Now in my order there is only Plan cost = 2800/- . actual cost is still zero .
    Can I see this plan cost Cost Ctr wise.
    I have tried with
    S_ALR_87013611,  S_ALR_87013612,   S_ALR_87013613
    But these are showing no data.
    I have tried
    S_ALR_87012993 , S_ALR_87012994, S_ALR_87012995, S_ALR_87012996
    S_ALR_87012993 is showing following values on executing against my PM order no :
    Actual  = blank                            Plan = 60.19               Var(Abs) = 60.19-                   Var.(%) = 100-
    How the above values are related to my cost ctr

    Hi Friends ,
    I got my solution .
    One is we can use the reports that I have mentioned above or we can also use IW39 as syggested by Jitendra.
    and 2nd thing I asked about cost - 60.19 /- how related to my orders . I have checked , actually our controlling area
    was having currency USD associated with it. So the report was showing me data in USD not in INR.
    thnx to all for time and help

  • Report restricted to specific Cost Centers of a cost center group

    Dear Experts,
    can you tell me how to achieve the following goal:
    We want to have a report writer report restricted to one cost center group that can be chosen by the user, but only showing in the first column the cost centers starting with "1049" for example that are part of this group and in the second column the cost centers starting with "1039" that are part of the group and so on.
    As far as I know, if we insert a variable on cost center group, we cannot restrict the cost centers any further ... do you have an idea how to proceed?
    Thank you very much!!

    Try it with two sub groups in your main cost cente group, one for the first column, and on for the second column.
