Trying to delete a cost centre against a position

Hello fellow SAP users,
We've run into a issue when trying to delete a cost centre record against a position, the scenario is as follows:
Cost centre was created on the Parent Org Unit on the 01.01.1900 and delimited 01.06.2010.
This created an infotype 0001 record for the employee with a blank cost centre (correct) effective 01.06.2010.
Administrator then created the same cost centre against the position (incorrect as this is a non-payroll org unit and position within it so therefore no requirement for a cost centre to be captured) from the 01.09.2011 with high date.
This created an infotype 0001 record for the employee with the cost centre reflecting effective 01.09.2011.
Now when trying to correct the above we want to delete the cost centre against the position (record from the 01.09.2011) however we get the following message: "HISTORICAL RECORD ALREADY CREATED". So we are unable to delete this record in order to correct the master data on both OM and PA side, keeping in mind no payroll is run for this employee.
How do we correct this?
Look forward to the feedback provided.
Kind regards
Dorianne

Hi,
The message is because your position has the historical record flag (HRP1000-HISTO) set to u2018Xu2019. From SAP help:
Allows you to mark infotype records as historical records. Historical records are permanently stored on the database, so that you can report on the information at a later point in time.
NOTE: You cannot change records once they are marked as historical. As a result, you should not mark records as historical unless you no longer require them for processing.
Typically, the flag is set if a user has delimited an object through PP01. Youu2019d see the historical flag in the window that pops up.
To remove the flag, execute report RHHISTO0, enter the relevant details in the selection and execute. The next screen ill show you which record has the flag set. Select that row and click u201Cremove historical recordu201D button on top. You should then be able to remove cost center from the position.
Hope this helps.

Multiple Cost centres to single position

Hi,
Is it possible to add multiple costcentres to same position. I tried using tcode PFOS and added the costcenters to the position but when I view the same from tcode PPOME the other costcenters are not visible. Please let me know how we can make it visible in org. structure.
Best Regards
MS

>Use relation A 014 (cost center distribution) between a postition with several cost centers
Create a record for infotype 1018 if you wish to distribute costs to more than one cost center .Enter which portion of the costs you would like to distribute to which cost center. If the object is already assigned a master cost center, the left-over share will be written to this cost center.

Error while uploading cost centre

Hi Experts,
I am trying to upload the cost centres against org unit in pre-production client in PP01
After giving relationship A011 and selecting the cost centre if I am clicking on save it is throwing this error "Personnel number 123456 does not exist"
Pls let me know your what would be the cause
Thanks

Hi,
error "Indicators are not their for controlling area" but I hav given the controlling area as well
please check you have now controlling area for fiscal year 2011, or desired year.
i think you do not have for the fiscal year that you are trying the same.
go to OKKP for your controlling area for fiscal year 2011 & select in as CoCd->CO Area ( controlling area same as company code) and active components/control indicators for { Cost Centers : Component Active ,Order Mgmt: Component Active } and then save.
or it might be in T.Code: OKE5
Check whether control indicators is checked in OKE5 or not.
this is done by FI consultant. if you have authorization then do it, if not consult your FI consultant.

mohammed

Cost Centre Derivation Issue at the time of PGI

Dear Experts,
At the time of Posting Post Goods Issue, SD Consultant is facing error that GL Account 6* requires assignment to a CO Object.
According to my understanding, system should derive Cost Centre at the time of P.G.I through following logic :
I have assigned Profit Centre : 999999 to the Cost Centre : ABCD and the said profit centre is being used at the time of Sales Order Posting. While doing PGI, system should derive cost centre data from Profit Centre Data which is used in Sales Order but currently system is not behaving like this.
Another way is to assign respective cost centres against COGS Gls through T-Code : OKB9 which is not right I think. Because how can we map Cost Centre Data with Profit Centre Data in order to get Profit Centre Wise Profitability Reports?
Please guide me any solution.
Regards,
Sapna

Hi Sapna,
For most cases, your COGS account should not be a cost element.
Secondly, if you want to make it a cost element, you will have to maintain OKB9 for it, either on the basis of profit center or plant.
System cannot pick cost center based on the cost center master data because there may be many cose centers assigned under the same profit center. There is no one-to-one mapping of cost center to profit center.
I would suggest you do not make COGS as cost element unless the sale order is an MTO sales order or business insists on it.
If business insists on it, then add the cost element to OKB9.

Asset Posting-Cost Centre input field

I am trying to post an asset acquisition using FB01. While posting the amount to the asset, system does not show the cost centre as greyed out eventhough the FSGs for GL and posting key are suitably modified with 'cost centre' as 'optional'. How the cost centre field is coming greyed out and not able to enter a value at the time of APC posting ?
Please offer your comments.

Hi Jyoti
Thanks for messaging. In fact I had assigned a cost centre in the Asset Master. I was trying to change the cost centre in the FI Posting. Hence it was greyed out. Forgetting this aspect, I was doing a wrong move.

Cost Centre report that shows all Tax Codes

Hi there,
We're trying to run a cost centre report that shows the tax codes relating to all expenditure, but Tax Code isn't an option in KSB1. Is there a way that it can be imported, or another report that we can use?
We need the tax code in order to be able to report on expenditure and tax paid / not paid for HMRC.
Thanks,
Michelle

Hi,
Cost reports KSB1 show only CO documents posted on cost centres. You can reconcile CO data with FI only for accounts which are relevant for CO, that is accounts defined as cost elements (normally, these are P&L accounts). If you want to see all CO documents, it's better to use KSB5 transaction as it shows all CO object postings, and not only cost centres. If you have some internal CO postings (manual postings, allocation, etc.), then they won't be shown in FBL3N and you have to consider this also.

Deletion of Profit Centre

Isn't it possible to delete a profit centre ? While I am trying to delete a profit centre (after removing the segment also), system is saying that "profit centre scenarion is active" (or) " the facility is not available to the profit centre object". I have not posted any data to the Profit Centre which is to be deleted.

Hi,
If you are activated profit center accounting in FI, we can't delete the profit center, Because profit center accounting is used as scenrio update in New GL.
but the we can lock the profit center for postings in the master data.

Delete WBS cost estimate - CKW1/CKW4`

Hi
We are working with project system and based on the customer requirement we create WBS BOM for production of the material and for costing purpose we run Production lot Cost estimate for WBS using transaction CKW1 and activate it using transaction CKW4.
One of our scenario is such that after activating the cost estimate we are making certain changes in the WBS BOM and want to recost the WBS cost estimate(No GR is made yet)
When we are trying to run cost estimate for that WBS and material system is giving us the message that "Cost estimate for this material and WBS is already activated" and not allowing us to proceed with new costing.
We are trying to delete the cost estimate but we can not find out any transaction to delete the cost estimate for WBS element.
How can we delete the existing cost estimate for the WBS element which is already activated.

Dear Pravin Kakade
I am also working the same. But i didnt have any other tc after CKW1 & CKW4. What can we do after Activity CKW4. If u give some input i am also working on the same path. I am also trying options.

Delete freight cost items

Hello all,
I am trying to delete freight cost items. When certain items are of a certain type and have 0 cost value I need to erase them. The problem is that I need to do this automatically, is there a user exit or a FM or BAPI or BADI to do this?
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Tiago Magalhães

Problem solved.
I used the user exit EXIT_SAPLV54B_004
Because the items that had 0 cost value were generating error on the transfer of the costs, what I did is change their status like this:
IF c_scd_item-vfkp-netwr IS INITIAL.
   IF c_scd_item-vfkp-stber <> 'C'.
    c_scd_item-vfkp-stber = 'C'.
ENDIF.
IF NOT c_scd_item-vfkp-stfre IS INITIAL.
    c_scd_item-vfkp-stfre = ' '.
ENDIF.
IF NOT c_scd_item-vfkp-stabr IS INITIAL.
    c_scd_item-vfkp-stabr = ' '.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Way to mass change cost centre in positions

Hi Experts
We have a scenario, where the client i srequired to change the cost centre for multiple positions. Is there any report by which this can be done at one go.
Regards
Saurav

First of all, u r talkin abt positions and cost centers....
i would like to know ... how u mapped ur Costcenters to Positions ?
did u maintain relationship thru Org Unit ? realtion ship A011 ?
Then simple change Cost Center of Units accordingly, this would take hardly 10 min.
Otherwise, use BDC to change the relationship for each position....from the date of effective.
Option Move in PPOME is very useful for mass changes... like selecting n number of positions together and moving to required units
