Trx KKPHIE: assigning single objects to cost objects hierarchy through BDC

Is there a way to assign single object to cost object hierarchy.
The ALV TREE button "Assignmnet single objs on/off" does not seem to trigger an OKCODE since it is managed in the abap object (class).
Is there is way to make a BDC. Or other ways to enter that data in BG, like a BAPI.
- Tried the BDC recorder without success
- Did not find a BAPI
- Did not find anything interesting in SWO1 business object BUS2076.
Any clue ?

Ok, we found the solution. Simply use the old transaction "KKP2" instead of "KKPHIE"

Assignment of Materials to Cost Object Nodes in Cost Object Hierarchy

We have defined a Cost Object Hierarchy. In the Cost Object Hierarchy , there are multiple cost object nodes. These cost object node represents each Prodcution line.
There is a requirement that any material can be produced in any production line.
The issue I am facing is if I am assiging one material to one Production line, and again if I am trying to assign the same material to other production line, the system is not allowing me to assign it.
How Can I resolve this issue.
kindly help.
regards

Hi
Ideally, each prod line should be represented by a Production Version in PP... You can assign a combination of Material + Prod Version to each Cost Obj Node... You cant assign just a Material No to more than 1 node
The Prod Version Field might appear in Grey Mode.. But, it will allow you to select the Prod Version in that Field....
You can also use BADI workorder_update to check while creating production order that the Prod Version being used in the Prod Order must be assigned to Cost Obj Node... Cost Obj Nodes are stored in the table CKPE

Mass Material Assignment to Cost Object Hierarchy

Hi,
I have to assign the materials to Cost Object Hierarchy. I know that it is done thorugh TC- KKPHIE.
But if I have to assign more than 1000 materials at a time , I cannot do that in mass.
I tried to do it thorugh LSMW. The system is not allowing it to create LSMW.
I am stuck. Please let me know is there any other method of material assignment in mass.
Or any other transaction code.
Hoping to hear

Hi Ravi,
I have tried using LSMW and BDC. Its not working.
Is there any other transcation of material Assignment to Cost Object Hierarchy.

Assign Cost Object to Bal. Sheet Account???

Hi experts;
     I found at my customer site that they set the fields of WBS element, Cost Center, Profit Center and Network are applicable with Bal. Sheet accounts at the time of Document entry like F-02.
     When I discussed with them that the B/S accounts should not be linked to any cost object and cost objects are only for the P/L accounts they said yes that is right in general, but they do that with some certain accounts like the Accrued Revenue to know exactly how much is expected to be collected from each project.
     But also as far I know that through the Document Split function on system I can get such result because if we assigned a Cost Obj. to a P/L account the system assign it to the other line of the document entry if it is B/L account, but I did not practice the Doc. Split before.
     So can someone kindly advice wither such process is correct or not? and if not, does it has any wrong impact if they insisted to do it? And does the Doc. Split can really help in such matter?
Many thanks in advance;
Best regards;

Hi Ahmad Mahmud,
The below is taken from SAP Note 75978 - Cost element type 90
"Cost elements of category 90 were introduced with 3.0 to enable an availability control on an internal order assigned to a fixed asset even with directly activated asset acquisitions. This functionality is guaranteed by SAP and will be enhanced by the planning of these cost elements in Release 4.0.
The check, however, that cost elements of category 90 can only be created for asset reconciliation accounts, has only been made since Release 3.0F. Before, it was possible to create any balance sheet accounts as cost element of category 90. Since cost elements created this way were not covered by functionality provided by SAP, various errors may occur when you post to these cost elements."
As you can see SAP does not support cost element type 90.
However I used them on e few projects and never have any problems.
Just to give you an example of the reasons they are sometimes needed:
- you need to record production quantity in CO-PA. You will create cost element type 90 for your inventory account. Every GR from production order will update quantity in CO-PA.
The question about splitting is quite ineteresting.
Maybe one of the NewGL experts can help you here.

General Cost Object

Hi there,
Anyone familiar with the General Cost Object out there please? (referring to KKC1 - under "Intangible Goods and Services" from the SAP menu.
*Background*
I am looking to a further dimension (cost object) to breakdown/attribute costs; a cost is now attributed at a GL account, a cost center and an internal order; for some reason i need to have a further cost objective; i found the "general cost objective" and thought of them as a solution altought they are indicated for "intangible goods and services" which is not my case...
*So far..*
I have created cost object with Tcode KKC1, quite straightforward and posted a journal to a GL account / Cost center / Cost Object (I left to one side the internal order for the time being)
*Issue 1*
- the KKC1 is asking for a Profit Center as part of the Cost Object master data (mandatory field);
Question: can this field be customisable in the IMG and be left blak? we have a 1 to 1 association betwen CC and PC, the same cost object should be used on many CC;
*Issue 2*
When I try to build the report in report painter to extract the info from the journal using Table CCSS, the 3 caracteristics ( GL account, Cost Center, Cost Object ) are not available whithin the same report; I can only extract GL and Cost Center or Cost center and Cost Objct; same problem using KSB1 ( single posting for cost center ) or KKCS (single posting for cost object)
*Question*: is there a table or some setting i am missing in creating a report painter to extract simulaneously values by GL, Cost Center and Cost Object?
*General Question*
Is there any other "object of CO" i can use to achieve the goal highlithed above?
TA!
Domenico

HI,
question 1: if the cost object is used for different cost center/profit centers, assign the general profti-center to this cost object (or Dummy PRCTR). Even if its possible to leave it "blank" it does not solve your problem.
question 2: don't know, but sounds not so easy...
question 3 (general question): No
I used cost objects once for the same reason you are describing it and it was helpful, but I never had the issue with report painter...

Assign cost object by condition type for accounting

Hello All,
Our scenario is that we have a single billing line with a service order assigned as the cost object on the line item. This line has multiple condition types going to different GL accounts on the RV document.
Once the service order is on the billing line all of the RV document lines get the same service order for cost object assignment We want to assign different cost objects (service order, internal order) to the different lines on the RV document based on the GL account.
Example:
Billing document line 10
Material 123456
Service order 999999
Condition type           GL                      Desired Cost Object
ZZ01                      480000                  999999 - service order
ZZ03                      560000                  11111 - internal order
ZZ04                      470000                  999999 - service order
ZZ05                      440000                   22222 - internal order
We have the multiple GLs getting assigned, it is just the cost object on the RV document that is a problem. Is there a way to do this in config...or is a user exit the only option?
Thanks in advance!
Edited by: Allison Sains on Jan 20, 2012 7:01 PM

Thanks for the response. It looks like we're going to try and rework the account assignment so a user exit is not required (use OKB9 instead).

Check on Cost elements assigned to cost objects

Hi,
In my program, I need to check whether cost elements assigned to cost objects or not.
Is there any function module available to check whether cost elements assigned to cost objects?
Please provide the code for check on cost elements assigned to cost objects.

Check table with CSK*

In VFX3,error is for GL requires an assignment to a cost object eventhough

In VFX3, while releasing billing docu for Accounting error is for GL40000000 requires an assignment to a cost object
The below are Checked points :
1.In OKB9 for this cost element 40000000 cost center assignments are there with Business area wise.
2.Cost center Valid period is from 1.4.2007 to 31.12.9999
in the begining while releasing in VFX3, system throwed error as that cost center blocked for revenue postings,
We deselected that check box(Actual Revenues in KS02)
now the error is GL 4000000 requires an assignment to a cost object
Even though cost center assignments are there but why system is asking cost object not able to understand.
Please any one help me to solve this issue.
Thanks

Nope, no other ways.
The cost center in question will receive a statistical posting - revenues aren't costs, and can't be carried in CCA as primary postings. If they could, they'd be able to be included in rate calculation, allocations, etc, which is nonsensical.
You'll have to have another receiver in CO that can receieve a real posting. That's pretty much an internal order, WBS element, or profitability segment. Profit center doesn't count; all postings to PCA are statisticial (PCA is a special-purpose special-purpose-ledger, if you get my meaning.)
Two questions:
1) Do you have costing-based CO-PA active in your system?
2) Have you verified the business scenario? Why do you want to record revenues in CCA in the first place?

Cost assignment-Multiple cost objects being selected by default from the EP

Hi,
I have created an expense report from the Portal and entered the cost object - a WBS element and saved the report. Now, when I check in table: PTRV_SCOS, it shows me the cost object assigned are - both - the WBS Element as well as the Cost center. This is incorrect as there should be only one cost object - either the cost center or the WBS element. However, when I book the expenses from the backend, it works fine. Only the WBS or cost center is displayed in the table mentioned above. Anyone has any idea as to why this is happening?
Many thanks in advance for your efforts.
Cheers guys.
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi All,
First of all, thanks for your responses..
Right, about the issue, what I explained here was that I am indeed assigning only one cost object: the WBS element. The issue was that even though I am assigning only the WBS element, it was also assigning the cost to the cost center by default. I did some R&D and found the solution to the issue (I was also asked to look for OSS notes but was not satisfied that this issue needs an OSS note to be applied so tried my solution). The issue was in table: T788M (allocate costs to variable account assignment). Here, I created an entry and called it USERGROUP_2 (just a random name) and assigned the variable cost objects (only the WBS and the Cost center) to be displayed. In the next step, I assigned this usergroup to the country in quesion feature (TRVCO). By doing this, I tell the system that only these cost objects are to be considered when an employee wants to assign the cost object. If the system sees that there is no value from the drop down to choose from, it picks up the default cost object (cost center). This was a simple issue that I had to rattle my brains on... but the solution I mention above worked like a hot knife going through butter...
If you guys face this issue, please try this else feel free to get in touch with me on my number below.
Once again, thanks for your responses.

Account Assignment - Derivation of Cost Object

Hi All,
On doing payment through transaction F-58, automatic line item of exchange rate gain n loss (P&L Account) is added automaticallly due to configuration done in FBKP -> Excng Rate Difference. The problem is, is there a possibilty to derive cost object which is used in Invoice of which the payment is being processed.
Regards,
Nayab

Thanks Eli for your reply.
Yes, I found the same i.e. the best practice is to assign CO through OKC9 on particular G/L Accounts. The issue is reports in Joint Venture Accounting "GJRG_5J1B" that shows all cost on particular job (cost center, wbs, network etc.) doesn't potray the right result after settlement of network. For instance
Invoice is booked and cost element is charged on Network
CJI3 show all amount
GJRG_5J1B show all related amount.
When payment is processed and in automatic RXD line item, constant Cost Center of Other Income is provided
CJI3 doesn't show RXD amount
GJRG_5J1B show RXD amount
On settling Network, i.e. Roll up its cost to WBS level following happens
CJI3 is settled, gross amount is 0.
GJRG_5J1B show 0 as well other than RXD amount which still needs to be settled.
The solution we found is to charge automatic line item to particular cost object so it will get settled while rolling up network amount to WBS
The other solution is to settle such cost at period end but to do such activity I'm in search of standard way.
Thank you again for your response.

Sale of Material - Assignment to Cost Object Error

Dear Forum,
The users while trying to do the PGI, encountered the error - "Account xxxxx requires an assigment to Cost Objet". However, when we check the Material Master, for doing the OKB9 maintenance, we get the message 'Costing View' not maintained for thie material. How could be the reason and how can we address this issue.
Another issue is that the posting is going to the wrong GL Account, which is mentioned in the aforesaid error message. How can we check the MM Account Determination to verify the correctness of the GL Account for posting of the Cost of Sales at the time of PGI.
Thanks for the help.
Regards

Hi,
Use transaction code: KA02: enter G/L account xxxxx(Cost element) and in default acct assinmt TAB,assign the Cost Center and save.
Now try ur transaction.
OR
Check the field status of the account in FS00. If this account requires CO object as mandatory then check whether a cost element is created or not , this error normally occurs when CO object is mandatory but relevant cost element is not created.
Example: CO object may be cost center, cost element, WBS element
OR
Use t.code OKB9 and assign G/L account to cost object with ur company code and save.
For more check the link

For 2nd issue

FX Revaluation with default Cost Object Assignment

Hello,
When we run the FX revaluation program FAGL_FC_Val, SAP books one side to
the balance sheet account and the other side to the P&L account for
unrealized FX Loss/Gain. Since this account is also created as a cost
element, it requires a cost object. However, FX revaluation program posts
the entry without a cost object. We have tcode OKB9 - Default Cost Center
Assignment but SAP does not take values from it.
We are on ECC 6.0
Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.
sumit

Hi,
if the P&L account for unrealized FX Loss/gain is created as cost element a posting can only take place if there is a cost object assigned.
You wrote "However, FX revaluation program posts the entry without a cost object" but thats not possible. There must be a cost object, maybe not the one you are expecting...
Maybe the OKB9 entry is maintained for comp. code A the FX valuation is done for comp. code B? Maybe there is a substituion rule created that changes the OKB9 default cost object?
Please check, and come back.
best regards, Christian

Error in Distribution of Actual cost in Cost Object Hierarchy

Hi,
I am getting an error while doing the Distribution of Actual cost from Cost Object Node to the assigned Order.
Cost element/origin 630000 could not be distributed
Message no. KZ468
Diagnosis
The cost element/ origin 630000 could not be distributed because there are no target costs for this cost element/origin or for cost element group CO-PC-TOT.
Procedure
Check the calculated target costs and cost element group CO-PC-TOT assigned to the target cost version.
Procedure for System Administration
Proceed
Although the Cost element is Present in cost element group CO-PC-TOT.
One more information, the order that is assigned in Cost Object Hierarchy is of CO-Product orders.
I have searched in the forum but I havent got any solution.
Kindly help.

Kami

Hi,
Concerning error message KZ 468, it has the following origin: In the customizing of the cost object category (transaction okz5), check if the 'single object selection' is set to 'Control through variance key'. If you consider the F1-Help for this option you will find the following explanation:
if the indicator Control through variance key is turned on, the production order, process order, or product cost collector can only be assigned to the cost object hierarchy if:
-> The material is assigned to the lowest node of the hierarchy
-> No variance key is specified in the order
The important point is, that orders that have a variance key are excluded from the cost distribution.
In transaction KKF8 you will find that all these orders do indeed have a variance key. Hence, all of these orders are included, there are no target costs from the orders and the costs cannot be distributed. Thus the error message kz 468.
Please consider that and check the customizing again.
Not having target costs in the distribution indicates either a wrong set up of the hierarchy or, more likely, no valid cost estimate for a certain material of a production order or product cost collector could be found.
Did you check whether for this cost element/origin target costs exist, and also for the cost element group? If not the message KZ468 is correct and probably the cost element group has to be maintained properly.
The distribution of actual costs calculates target costs on-the-fly and the variance calculation does not have to be carried out before. Quite the opposite than the variance calculation requires the distribution as a preceding step. Furthermore it is not sufficient that one cost element is in a cost element group but the interval where the cost element has been assigned to has to have some target costs. Otherwise this won't work and message KZ468 is issued.

Waman
