Structure view "Profit center hierarchy" for Information system

Hi Experts
The structure view "Profit center hierarchy" is not available in standard system. I have created a new key with assignement of PS Hierarchy type '2'.
But iam getting below message when I use this new structure view:
Alternative hierarchy could not be determined
Message no. OK032
Diagnosis
You attempted to structure your project elements according to an alternative hierarchy (profit center, cost center or summarization hierarchy). The alternative hierarchy could not be read.
System Response
The system uses the "Work breakdown structure" view.
Any suggestion?
warm regards
ramSiva

Ok lets start from basics
go to CN41 and enter a project with std PS info profile 000000000000001
if you click o the DB profile you will have basic setting 000000000000001 etc
this gives us the project structure
Now in transaction OPUR create a view for PC hierarchy
Z00000000001 - whatever description
select PS hier type 2 - Profit Ctr via set
I think you have done this
In this configuration there is a group name - you need to enter the profit centre hierarchy group name from your system
this group must exist in your system check using transaction KCH3 to display group - if this is not entered correctly you will get the exact error you have got - I have been able to replicate in my system
Now run CN41 change DB profile project view from 00000000001 to Z0000000001

  • Hierarchy authorization: profit center,  0account for 0PCA_C01 data.

    Hello my SAP Net friends,
    I have built the authorizations/roles using profit center hierarchy for PCA data based the paper in BWExpert(Avoid these common pitfalls in using reporting authorizations with and without hierachies), it works fine.
    Both 0profit_ctr and 0account are in the 0PCA_C01 cube, they both have hierarchies.
    Now users also want to use the 0account hierarchy to limit PCA data access beside using the profit center. Have any of you had experience to use both profit center and 0account hierarchies for authorization? Could it works? Any limitation or issues?
    I have created authorization object using the profit center, if I create another authorization object using 0account. Could these two authorization objects works together?
    I will assign points to any helpful responses.
    Thanks!
    JXA

    Hello Jun,
    0profit_ctr and 0account are two different characteristics, so authorization to those two are independent of each other.
    I.e., you can set authorization two both characteristics by means of both hierarchies.

  • How do I create a BW hierarchy from an R/3 profit center hierarchy?

    I am trying to create a profit center hierarchy in BW using a profit center hierarchy from R/3.  I know there is a way to do this, I just can't find the way. 
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Aaron,
    you have to activate the specific datasource 0PROFIT_CTR_0106_HIER in R/3 transaction RSA5. After doing this, replicate your source system in BW anf then assign the datasource to 0PROFIT_CTR infosource, create an infopackage and finally load your hierarchies !
    Hope it helps (and don't forget to assign some points by clickin'on the star to the contributors that will help you !).

  • Profit Center Hierarchy Maintenance

    Hello
    As part of a project we need to transfer an existing Profit Center Hierarchy (including all Profit Center groups and Profit Centers) to a different Controlling Area. The hierarchy in question contains over 2500 Profit Centers and we would like to avoid doing this manually, to reduce both time and margin for error.
    We know that we can use KCH1 to copy the Profit Center Groups to the new Controlling Area, using the original Controlling Area as a reference, but this does not copy across the Profit Centers master data.
    Master Data transaction KE55, does not allow Controlling Area to be amended.
    Questions:
    - Is there a way to transfer/copy the complete hierarchy (including Profit Centers) to a different Controlling Area?
    If we use KCH1 - how can we copy/reassign the Profit Centers to the new Controlling Area?
    Any ideas for this would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi
    It can not be fully the way you like...
    You can go to KCH4 and select your Prof Ctr Hie.. Click on Extras > Export... This would create a text file...
    Create Std Hie with same name in new contr area and SAVE.. Then click on Extras > Import.... This would create the Hie Structure and also the profit center names under it.. But, as such the Prof Ctrs wont be created...
    You need to create them again using KE51... Ideal way would be to create it using reference of the same profit center (LSMW)

  • Profit Center Hierarchy - allocate between P/C

    I am in process of creating a profit center hierarchy before project implementation so nothing is in system yet.  I would like to know opinions on if my idea will work or a better alternative.
    I have three main profit centers for the major business products.  I also have one profit center for a product line that could be sold with any of the other three main P/Cs.  Can I create a hierarchy with 4 profit centers and then be able to allocate out the #4 profit center to the other three? 
    Then I could run a P&L report on the three P/C each with their share of the 4th P/C.
    Please advise - thanks.

    Yes you can create 4 profit centers and allocate the Revenues and Costs of the Profit center 4 to Other 3 profit centers.

  • Profit center Hierarchy in query selection varaiable

    Hi,
    I am using Profit center Hierarchy node in my query selection. does it make the query execution slow.
    Thanks
    Madhu

    my query is excuting very fast in Developement where as in QAS it is excuting very slow.
    i don't know exactly what is the reason.
    the query is build on Inventory Cube ,
    some people told me that when non-cumulative keyfigures and  profit center hierarchy node used as selection the query is going to execute slow.
    i don't know exactly,if that is the case it has to apply for the developement system also.
    can anybody face this pbm

  • Profit Center determination for Stock G/L accounts

    Hello,
    The scenario is as follows:
    A single G/L account is defined in our system for Finished Goods. FI documents resulting from material movements are posted to this account in PCA, i.e. table GLPCA shows material document numbers in the reference document field along with the corresponding movement types for this account.
    There are a large number of materials with Profit Center 10000 (Industry General) defined in the material master record. All postings to the G/L in question are currently being made against the Profit Center defined in material master. There are also two other Profit Centers defined in the system; 10001 (Industry Motors) and 10002 (Industry Others). The business requirement is that all materials are common to both segments, but the Profit Center should be determined from the sale, i.e. if a material is sold to an Industry Motors customer the Profit Center should be 10001, otherwise it should be 10002.
    For the revenue G/L account which is hit at the time of posting of the invoice, a substitution has been configured that determines the appropriate Profit Center from the division specified in the invoice; there are two divisions for Motors and Others respectively. For the stock G/L however, all postings are made to Profit Center 10000 as defined in the material master record.
    Since the stock G/L will show postings from all goods movements, including GR, initial entry, GI for delivery, etc., and all materials are common, it is clearly not possible to completely segregate all postings to 10001 and 10002. For example, GR will always be posted to 10000 (General) as it is not known whether this should be in 10001 or 10002 till the time of sale. However, for sales movement type (Goods Issue delivery) at least, postings shoud be made to the appropriate specific Profit Center. For the remaining postings, the business applies a calculated ratio to the acumulated balance.
    For the stock G/L, is it possible to derive Profit Center for outward goods movements based on invoice? For example, 1000 USD worth of stock is posted to the G/L in PCA with movement type 101 and Profit Center 10000. 200 USD worth of stock is sold under Motors and 400 USD worth is sold under others. Entries in GLPCA should be:
    G/L            Balance  Profit Center     Movement Type
    31000000   1000       10000              101
    31000000   200         10001              601
    31000000   400         10002              601
    So from this it is easily possible to determine that 200 USD worth of stock has been sold under Motors, 400 USD worth under Others, and 400 USD worth of stock remains unsold.
    A solution for this is required. If anyone can think of any other way to accomplish this as well, please share your suggestions. Thanks!
    Regards,
    Khan

    to arrive the profit center at a time of Goods Movment, select the cost center for Industry Motor before to that do the settings in OKB9 for the Cost element a default Profit Center for Cost center.
    Hope this helps u in resolve the issue.

  • Profit center line for free of charge items

    Hi all
    Is it possible to force SAP to write the create a profit center items for free of charge items of SD invoice (positions TANN), of course with zero value but with the quantity data?
    Thanks.
    Davide

    Hi,
    in NewGL I am sure that its not possible as there is no accounting document created (which contains the PRCTR information as well) if the revenue is zero.
    And I am pretty sure that its not possible too in old PCA (Ledger 8A).
    CO-PA docs. can be created for free of charge items (otherwise the cost of these items are missing in costing-based CO-PA).

  • Copy cost center hierarchy to profit center hierarchy: is this possible?

    Hi,
    I would like to know or I can copy my standard cost center hierarchy to my standard profit center hierarchy. If so, how to proceed?
    Thank you in advance,
    Eric van Zundert.
    Ps. We do not have enterprise organisastional active.

    Hi Eric,
    No standard tool exists for this operation. However, if you really prefer to do it manually, you can pull a trick. You can export your cost centre hierarchy to TXT file, correct there certain parameters (change BCCSS to  BGLPCT, etc.) and then import it as profit centre hierarchy.

  • Profit center hierarchy and cost center hierarchy

    Hi
    What are the things we have to consider to create Profit center hierarchy and cost center hierarchy  and what is the need to assign profit center hierarchy to profit center and cost center hierarchy to cost center. What levels does this fall into? Can some one please guide me.
    Thanks.

    As you would for any other infoobject
    Activate the business content hierarchy datasources on R3 for cost centre and profit centre
    Go into BW - replicate the metadata
    Then just connect via transformations or transfer rules the datasources to yoru infosources or master data objects
    Create an infopackage per hierarchy!!!!! - press the button available hirachies from OLTP - click the one you want on the left - fire it off
    Then repeat new infopackages for all hierachies

  • Profit Center Hierarchy Process Chain fails

    Hello Friends,
    I have Profit Center Hierarchy load using Process Chain daily. Last night it failed.  The log says : Saving Hierarchy Month 00 is not plausible.  Does anyone have any idea about it.

    Hi Jose,
    seems that one of yourinfoapckages seems to have a logic for naming the hierarchy where the previous month is calculated. This logic seems to fail for january.

  • How to load Profit Center hierarchy from R3 to BW

    Hi people,
    Sorry, but I already saw some documentations here and I couldn´t solve my problem.
    I need to load Profit Center Hierarchy from R3 to BW.
    I already have the InfoSource 0PROFIT_CTR activated and I would like to know what are the steps to load the "Standard Hierarchy"  that we have in the transaction KCH6N in R3.
    I tried to create the Infopackage based on 0PROFIT_CTR_HIER and when I tryed to schedule, the system asked me the file name to put in the "external data", but I don´t have file to load, I need to load de hierarchy directly from R3.
    Help me please,
    Thanks,
    Rosana.

    U have to activate datasource 0PROFIT_CTR_0106_HIER in R/3 system and replicate that to BW.
    And u should install standard transfer rules (0PROFIT_CTR_0106_HIER  from BI CONTENT) in BW system.
    Create infopackage to load hierarchy.. In Infopackage properties, 'Hierarchy Selection' tab, click 'Available Hierarchies from OLTP' and select ur profit center hierarchy.
    There is no difference loading hierarchy data in BW 3.5 and BI 7.0
