Setup Cost Center hiearachy first, then Profit Center hierachy later?

Dear Experts,
Should I setup the cost center hierarchy first, then the profit center hierarchy later?
Regards,
Abraham

I see. but if I setup profit center hierachy first, then I got to redo the same for Cost Center. I thought I could do the Cost center first, then copy them to profit center since there's a "copy cost center group" function in profit center accounting.
Can I deactivate the profit center accounting since each time I skip the profit center entry during cost center creation, the following message pop up?
"Profit Center Accounting active but no profit center specified (CCtr 1110)"
Regards,
Abraham

Cost component split transfer for Profit center valuation in ke27

Dear All,
We have activated multiple valuation/transfer prices. Material ledger is also activated.
We want to transfer cost component split to CO-PA by ke27.
We have defined separate costing keys for access to actual cost estimate for legal and profit center valuations.
But cost component split transfer to COPA works only for legal valution. Even we have defined type of valution for profit center costing key -transfer cost component split and total costs.
What should be else customized to transfer cost components splitting in profit center valuation to CO-PA from actual cost estimates?
With best regards,
Kamila.

Hi,
I have assigned the same value fields used for legal valuation to column 2, which was pointed in message.
But now I got following message in ke27:
For actual data, value fields that were already populated before CO-PA valuation cannot be changed in valuation.
1. As a rule, value fields that were filled before CO-PA valuation - be it from SD or by a manual entry of a line item - can only be changed by means of user exits.
(Note that for plan data, CO-PA valuation always has priority over the values planned manually.)
2. The valuation steps in a CO-PA valuation strategy are numbered sequentially. These numbers determine the order in which the steps are carried out within that strategy. As a rule, value fields populated in one step can be used as a basis for calculating values for other value fields in a subsequent step.
Value fields that were populated in a previous step are generally not overwritten by subsequent steps.
The exception to this are steps that use a CO-PA user exit. User exits let you change individual value fields.
3. If you valuate using multiple material cost estimates simultaneously, this means that the values of different cost components within the same cost estimate are aggregated and then entered in one CO-PA value field. However, value fields that already contain data from a previous cost estimate are not overwritten by a later cost estimate. Consequently, you should assign value fields in Customizing so that the values of different cost estimates are entered in different sets of value fields.
4. When condition values are transferred to CO-PA value fields, note that condition types that are assigned to the same value field are added together. This is also the case when the condition types come from different costing sheets within the valuation strategy.
So does it mean we should define separate value fields for PC valuation?
With best regards,
Kamila.

Cost center line items by profit center

Hi,
We have an issue, where user has processed a document in FI with profit center "X" however the cost center of the document has profit center "Y" in the master data.
In FI, accounting document showed against the profit center "X" with which user has processed.
In CO document profit center was coming with "Y whcih is in cost center master data.
There is a variance between FI and CO for profit centers.
However profit center account is not completly configured, it is configured minimally. So GLPCA, GLPCT do not fetch data for the given profit centers, I do not have profit center appearing in CO line item reports. We are using ECC 6.0 version.
Please help me to reconcile the difference.
Regards,
Ramesh.

Hi,
I think your case for SAP is not normal process. Normally, if user assign separate profit center which is different to profit center in the Cost Object, lets say the cost center, during the posting the system will issue message that the profit center is changed the profit center assigned in the Cost object. System would not accept two different profit center on one posting process.
For example:
Posting material using assigment cost center X that contain profit center 1000, then also assign own profit center 1402.
During posting, the system will issue message " the profit center is changed to 1000". This is what happen when there is discrepancy in profit center during posting.
So, by having one profit center in a document, the data that flow from FI will follow the assignment in the Cost Object.
For this problem, I think you need to raise this issue to OSS.

Substituting Cost of Goods Sold Account Profit Center

Hi
I am using Sales Order substitution to change the Profit Center according to Sales Org + Product Hierarchy + Customer Group + Acct Asst Grp. This perfectly replace the Profit Center in Sales Order. The Profit Center from Sales Order is perfectly flowing to Outbound Delivery.
While doing PGI, in accounting document, Cost of Goods Sold line item is not getting the profit center from outbound delivery. It post COGS line item with Material Master profit center. We want profit center of Cost of Goods Sold line item is same as Sales order / Outbound Delivery.
I checked SCN, everyone provided the solution of using FI Substitution to change the Profit Center of COGS line item.
Is it any other way it can be achieved? if FI Substitution is only the way, can anyone provide the sample code, so that it can be developed fast.
Thanks
Venkat Ramachandran

For those who may need an answer to this, our solution was the following:
1)       Created new types for SO, SO Item, Sched. Line, Delivery, Delivery Item, Billing type
2)       Created new Pricing procedure
3)       Created new movement type Y61/Y62 modeled after 601/602
4)       Mapped Y61/Y62 to account modifier ZAX.
5)       Mapped GBB/ZAX to the new account.
Benefits, they now have better view of the orders going inter-company. It is flexible enough to adjusting prices for intercompany separate from standard orders, even though for now it is a straight copy of cost. They are able to remove the sales/use tax, from the calculations. They are able to plan with these orders separated out. Plus, this will standardize their process for inter-company.
Hope this helps someone.
Cheers!
Rick

How to find the profit center group for a profit center?

How to find the profit center group for a profit center?

Hi,
try this also
In order to pass the setid parameter of the FM, you have to concatenate the following things
Setid + KOKRS (Controlling area) + Profit Center Group into one variable.
In my example below, I have declared as constants and concatenating to gv_setid.
gc_01016 is the set id for profit centers
gc_kokrs is the controlling area
gp_pprct is the Profit Center group entered in the selection screen.
You will get KOKRS value from the cepc-kokrs.
data :   gc_0106(4)   TYPE c VALUE '0106',
           gc_kokrs      LIKE cepc-kokrs VALUE 'ABCD'.
           gv_setid          LIKE sethier-setid,
           gt_set_values_1   LIKE setvalues OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
CONCATENATE gc_0106 gc_kokrs gp_pprct INTO gv_setid.
CONDENSE gv_setid.
CALL FUNCTION 'G_SET_TREE_IMPORT'
    EXPORTING
      client                    = sy-mandt
      fieldname                 = 'RPRCTR'
      langu                     = sy-langu
      setid                     = gv_setid
      tabname                   = 'GLPCT'
      no_table_buffering        = 'X'
    TABLES
      set_values                = gt_set_values_1
    EXCEPTIONS
      set_not_found             = 1
      illegal_field_replacement = 2
      illegal_table_replacement = 3
      OTHERS                    = 4.
By using the above FM you will get the values into gt_set_values1 once sys-subrc value eq 0, it is internal table which consists of all the profit centers for the proft center group.

Transfer of profit center balances from old profit center to new profit cen

HI,
My client wants to deactivate all cost centers and profit centers and create new cost centers and new profit centers for new fiscal year 2009.
So here my queries are
1. Putting an end date to the existing cost center and creating the New cost center now itself in the system with effective date as 1st April 09?
    I changed validity period in cost center but it does not accept.
2. How to restrict postings to profit center from April, 2009 ? even changed validity period and changed as inactive mode in profit center,
    It is allowing postings to profit center.
3. How the balances need to be transferred to New profit centers? I tried in 9KE0 T.code but in this T.code we can transfer profit center and GL A/C wise
    but here we have around 20 profit centers and 100 above Gls, so it will take so much of time, so kindly suggest me short way.
4. And When can we transfer balances to New profit centers i.e April 1st or after completions of Audit? because client wants to post pending transactions of 2008 FY
    to old profit centers in April and May months. So in this situation how can i proceed?
5. For mapping the Assets & Liabilities balances as on 31st Mar 2009 to New profit center the following need to be provided
    A. Profit center wise Trail balance
        ( For this i suggested S_PL0_86000030 t.code) is this correct?
    B. Profit center wise Balances of Subsidiary Ledgers i.e Vendors, Customers & Assets
6. On which date I can close 2008 FY& open 2009 fiscal year for Assets?
Please guide and provide me solutions above my queries.
This would be great help for me, Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Supriya

Hi
Pls find enclosed the replies
1.Pls tick all the lock indicators. System would not allow the posting to the cost centers
2. for the analysis, maintain the lock indicator to the profit center. System would give an error when anybody tries to post to the profit center during the analysis period. please note system would allow posting to the profit center outside the analysis period of lock indicator
3.You should transfer the balances through LSMW or other mass data transfer tool like BDC or ECATT
4.I Guess you should finish all your transactions and then do the transfer on a date which is acceptable to the business
5. The report code S_Pl0_86000030 is correct.
6. Try the report codes S_ALR_87013343 - Profit Center: Receivables , S_ALR_87013344 - Profit Center: Payables

Hi!
In whcih document you have this FMS.
Is the FMS is auto refresh ? On which field it is been set for refresh
When you click the magnifier on First row, did the FMS is working ?
Change your Auto refresh field and check.
If you are using Copy From or Copy To option , there is a chance of not triggering the FMS

New cash journal for new profit center gives error of profit center

Dear Friends
I have configured a new Cash G/L for new profit center .But while posting throug T-code FBCJ the entry it gives following error .
Field Profit Ctr is a required field for G/L account 1000 207001550
Message no. F5808
Diagnosis
The value for field "Profit 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 "207001550" in company code "1000" linked to the field selection for posting key "50".
System Response
Error
Procedure
It might be an error in the configuration of the G/L account field selection. The initial application, used to call up the interface must otherwise define a value for field "Profit Ctr". If this is the case, contact the consultant responsible for the application used to call up the interface or get in contact with SAP directly.
But its working file with another Cash G/L While the Field Status is same as the field status of another cash G/L.

through Transaction 3KEH, Default Profit Center can be set against Required GL (i.e Cash account in your case)
Warm Regards...
