  • COPA derivation for thecombination of Cost center and Cost element/GL accou

    Hi Gurus,
    In COPA derivation using KEDR i am trying to make a derivation for the
    combination of Cost center and Cost element. Here i got following problems
    • While posting FI document using t.code FB50 system not automatically
    updating the fields Cost center and cost element in Profitability
    segment. Hence system not posting COPA document. How can i make this
    derivation? Is there any note should i apply regarding these.
    • How can i create cost element as characteristic.
    • If i configure derivation for the combination of Cost center and cost
    element will it be posted with copa document for postings or automatic
    postings from MM,HR and FI
    Pls provide me solution at the earliest.
    Thanks and Best regards,

    Hi Murali
    Thanks for update
    I explain my req clearly
    For me segment is Distribution channel field (EXPORT and DOMESTIC)
    If GL account is 1000-2000     always                      Export
    If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     X then Export.
    If GL account is 2001-3000    and Cost center is     Y then Domestic.
    Based on above REQ i am making derivation using KEDR T.code.
    These postings should work for all modules postings such as MM, HR also.
    Actually this should work automatically and after saving the transaction we should have copa document also.
    But problem is in source fields of derivation we have GL account (HKONT) and Cost element (KSTAR). I am making derivation using either of these.
    But after posting document system not giving COPA document.
    I found the reason is  at GL postings we are giving input to GL account (HKONT) but we took in KEDR source field as GL account (SAKNR). GL account (HKONT) is not updating GL account (SAKNR) field in PSEG screen in Fb50. Even i try with cost element (KSTAR), GL account (HKONT) is not updating this in PSEG screen in fb50.
    If GL account (HKONT) updates either GL account (SAKNR) or cost element (KSTAR) at the time of posting FB50
    Or
    If we have the field GL account (HKONT) as source field in KEDR i hope my problem
    Get solved.
    If you want further info pls give me your mobile number then i ll call you

  • Functionality of Profit Center and Cost Center

    Hi,
    I am unable to understand the functionality of Profit center and cost center, I know that cost center represents area within an organization for which you will like to see the expenses for a particular time period. for example in an organisation we have three cos centers Accounts, HR and Admin. whenever you post an accounting document in FI you will specify the cost center to which the expense relates. but in some cases when you post an expense and give the relative cost center the profit center is also driven by the system. why is this behavior? i mean i have posted an expense not an income then why is system driving the profit center as well?
    Profit centers are used if you want to see the profit of different area of your organisation. in what kind of postings we use profit center? and if we could use profit center to draw income and loss for a specific area why do we need segment reporting? and what is the difference between Segment and Business area. what i understood from their definition is that they are both same and use for same purpose.
    I am totally lost in these concepts. please some one help me out with an example. i am stuck at this point. some one please clarify my concept of Profit Center, Cost Center, Segments and business area please.

    Hi,
    Cost center & Profit Center are organizational units   within the enterprise structure , created for better internal control.
    As the name suggests Cost Center  is  the lowest level  of the organizational unit representing a defined location of cost incurrence or otherwise to which you can meaningfully assign the cost(both direct & Indirect).
    Profit Center is an organizational unit  in accounting  ,where management would require to see the profitability & fix the responsibility. It may be each plant/division of the company .
    If you consider the Plant is the Profit center, you can take the various deptts in the Plant as cost centers. you can draw a balance sheet & profit & loss account statement at profit center level but this will be for your internal use.From this you can know the ROI on particular area. Profit centers are assigned inside the cost center so when you update cost center, profit centers are updated automatically.
    Where as Segments are used for legal reporting of your accounting standard as per IFRS. Both Business Area & Segments are more or less same with some technical difference.
    Business area  is a free organizational unit. It can be derived through cost center or can be entered manually.
    But segment is a dependent organizational unit. It is defined & attached inside the  profit center master data. It can’t be entered manually.
    SAP suggest to use the Segment concept.
    Thanks & regards

    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

  • RE - Change profit center and cost center after LO activated

    Hi ppl, One question. Is there any harm if we change the profit center and cost center of the business entity, building, rental unit only after the lease out has been activated?

    No need to change the cost center, as you want to have valid from date as 01.10.2010.
    Having profit center before that date is not an issue and does not have any negative impact.

    1. Primary Cost Element
    2. Secondary Cost Elements
    Primary Cost Element will carry cost form FI to CO (Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc…)
    Seconday Cost Elements carry cost with in CO to different Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Cost Objects, etc…

  • Cost Center and Cost Element Hierarchy and Actual Cost Center

    In Bex - Right now I am displaying Cost Center and Cost Element hierarchy with 12 months of data. I want to display the actual Cost center number next to cost element hierarchy - Can I display in Bex?
    Tried to with Structure creating formula variable for Cost Center using replacement path - didn't work. Can you please suggest me how i can achieve this?
    The format should be
    CostCenter H1   CostElement H1   CostCenter   Jan  Feb ...
    Thanks in advance and appreciate for any help...

    Let me explain it clearly and hope it is clear now...
    Designed the report as like this - Cost Center Hierarchy by Cost Element Hierarchy for 12 months of data. But Business agian search in R/3 for actual cost center numbers based on above two hierarchy nodes.
    I am trying to achieve this Bex instead of going back to R/3 - so that they can understand how the dollar amount is summed up on which major cost centers.
    If I remove the hierarchy on Cost Center - it will display all the cost centers. They want to see the Cost center numbers based on CC and CE hierarchy node so that you are displaying only those cost centers. That's the reason I am trying to design the  report with CC Hier, CE hier, Cost Center number and 12 months of data.
    In my data model - have only one Cost Center, if i can create another ZCOSTCENTER same as 0COSTCENTER - May be I can achieve this. still looking for options with out changing the design.

    The tables for storing groups in SAP are SETNODE and SETLEAF. The codes in the previous message posted by my fellow SAP consultant are transactions and not tables.
    The classes are:

  • Cost center and cost element in different collumns

    Dear all,
    I developed a report painter where the lead collumn has cost element and cost center. When I run the report it shows at the same collumn the cost centers and in a different line the cost element totalizing the amount of each cost center. So the report shows for each cost element the cost centers posted with this cost element. The report show like below:
    |-------
    Cost center A    | 100
    Coste center B  | 200
    |-------
    Cost element xxx - 300
    The problem is: How can I make the Cost element in a separate column ? Ex:
    Cost element xxx  |  Cost center A  | 100
    Cost element xxx  |  Cost center B  | 200
    Cost element xxx - 300 (In fact I don''t need the total)
    I need cost element and cost centers in different collumns to allow export it for other application..
    Regards

    Hi
    In report painter report we have only one lead column so we cannot have cost centers and cost elements in two different columns.Instead we can use the functionality of variation.Give the cost center in general data selection screen and select the variation functionality.So that cost centers are displayed on the left side of the report as hirearchy and only cost elements are only displayed in lead column.
    Thanks

  • Hierarchy data(Profit center Hierarchy,Cost element)

    Hi every one,
    How can i load the hierachy data from R3 to BW?
    Please search the forum
    Edited by: Pravender on Jul 13, 2010 6:56 PM

    Hello Prudhvi,
    In SAP R/3, Tcode RSA5. Find appropriate Hierarchy Datasource for Profit center, cost center .
    Activate the data source.  Once activated you can see this datasource in RSA6 (in Source system itself). There in RSA6 you will be able to test run this data source(also you will be able to see the data for this test run). If you want you can also test this data source in RSA3 also.
    Now in BW system: Replicate this data source. create mappings(update rules etc) between this Hierarchy data source and the Hierarchy infoobject.
    Now you can create InfoPackage for this Datasource and Schedule it to load Hierarchy data in BW
    Hope this helps.

  • Mass Extension of cost center and cost element validity dates

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    We have around 5000 cost centers and 6000 cost elements for which "Valid to" date is 09/27/2008. We need to extend this date for another 5 years.
    Can you please suggest any pointers as how we can do the mass update.
    We have already tried KS12 which is not of any help.
    Thanks,
    Sreeni.

    Hi,
    Run the LSMW.
    Or Use the fuction automatic creation of Primary/Secondary cost elements in the SPRO.
    Or You can write a program which replaces the valid to date directly in the database table.
    For this you require ABAPER help.

  • Query Cost Center and Cost Element Hierarchy

    here is the problem.
    We are trying to build a query that does the following.
    Its a CCA query.
    We have Costcenter in the Filter area with a Hierarchy assigned and a hierarchy node variable attached.
    We run the report and its looks good and the user cannot drill down because nothing is in the "rows" area. Its perfect.
    Now the user has said that within that Costcenter Hierarchy we only want to see a total number based on the CostElement Hierarachy assigned. Different CostElement Hierarchys are valid for different times of the budget.
    I have created a Hierarchy variable and attached it to the CostElement.
    Here is The issue ****
    If I drop the Costelement in the "rows"area it prompts for the Hierarchy name , filters Costcenter properly and provides the extact number. Problem is the user can now drill down and that is not allowed becuase we are going to have 3 summary totals with a "grand total" at the bottom.
    So if I put the CostElement in the Filter area it now does not filter the CostCenter and I get the wrong number.
    Is there a way to prevent drill down or some how force the CostCenter to be filtered by CostElement also.
    Thanks for any help
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    Not sure if this will help as I have not tried it out, but you can try by setting the display property of Cost Element to No Display, when it is in the Rows area. This can be done by Cost Element > Right Click > Display As > No Display.
    Hope this helps...
