Using FIDCCP01 to post costs to a WBS Element

Hi,
We're trying to post costs into SAP through idoc FIDCCP01, and it works fine when posting to cost centres or internal orders. When using a WBS Element (in the field PROJK) we get error status 51 with the message "Account (any gl code) requires an assignment to a CO object".
We've checked that the WBS Elements being used are released and have settlement rules, and we've tried using both internal WBS codes (field PSPNR in table PRPS) and internal Project codes (PSPHI in PSPR) in the field PROJK in the idoc - external WBS codes are too long for the 8 characters.
It may be possible that we're using the wrong reference from within SAP, or the wrong field in the idoc or that there's something else wrong with the set-up of our WBS Elements, but we can't work it out.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks.

For info, answer from SAP below:
SAP says Basic type FIDCC01 used for ALE IDOC data transfer (From one SAP system to other SAP system) and WBS element number (number associated with WBS code) could be different in two different system and hense in this interface logic it is clearing the value filled in the field PAOBJNR and PROJK. Hense in further processing accout assignement found missing.

    WBS is Real and cost center in the master data is for statistical postings i.e. responsible cost center in WBS.

  • Report Painter Request - Cost Center and WBS Element

    Hi Everyone,
    Currently, my company settles all project related expenses through to a cost center by way of an internal settlement cost element (category 21).  The issue with this is that when the expense gets to the cost center, they lose all visability as to where the expense originated, such as salaries or travel expense (category 1 cost elements).  We can't switch the settlements to the originating cost element from wbs to cost center just because of the additional data/volume that will cause.  My thought was to create a report painter that can run by cost center but also show the wbs's that settle to that cost center and group the expenses by primary cost element (cat 1).  I'm assuming that there is a way to marry a cost center and wbs element by way of the wbs settlement rule but how would that be done for reporting purposes?  I've seen it done before by way of a nightly job that created sets based on the combination of cost center and wbs but I'm not sure how that was done.  Any advise and examples?
    Example:
    Cost Center:  IT
    WBS: A.0017.01.01 (settles to cost center IT)
    Postings made:
    1.  CC IT and CE 552000 "salaries"..............................$20,000
    2.  WBS A.0017.01.01 and CE 552000 "salaries"........... $5,000
    3.  Settlement of WBS to CC (expenses flow through to CC IT by way of CE 985000)
    I want to run CC IT and see that the account 552000 really shows $25,000 and can be broken down by cost object (CC and WBS by the amounts above)
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Hi Peter,
    I had a similar requirement and used report painter report group 1SHK-002 (in library 1VK).
    I took a copy of the standard and ameneded it slightly, I switched the explode so it occured on the cost center not cost element.
    The report runs so that direct costs on the cost center are shown at primary cost level. And values settled to the cost center are shown on the partner object. In your case i guess WBS Elements (Partner ObjType WBS).
    Now in my case I didnt need cost element breakdown on partner level, just on cost center so effectively I have(sorry for text alignment but I hope you get the idea):
    GL1   .............  100
    GL2   .............  250
    + Cost center1 total ....350
    GL3 .............   50
    GL4 ............. 100
    + Cost center2 total.... 150
    Primary Cost Total ..... 500
    X-YZ-1.200 .............   50
    X-YZ-1.400 ............. 100
    + WBS total ............. 150
    IO 1............. 100
    IO 2  ............. 100
    +IO total  ............. 200
    Partner Total............. 350
    Overall total .............  850.
    Its not exactly like your requirement but it might be a good report for you to work with to get what you need.

  • FI  posting not allowed for WBS Element

    Hi All,
    While doing down payment billing I'm getting error that FI posting is not allowed for WBS element. But FI periods are open for all months in 2008.
    Please suggest how to resolve this issue.
    Regards,

    Hello
    Account assignment
    If you want to post actual costs and commitments to a WBS element, you have to indicate that the WBS element is an account assignment element in the WBS. All objects that can be assigned costs and commitments within a project (for example, orders, networks, or purchase orders) can only be assigned to a WBS element if you have set the account assignment indicator for the element.
    In Customizing for the Project System, you can set an indicator to specify that costs are planned for all WBS elements or only for specific WBS elements.
    Billing
    If you want to post revenues to a WBS element, you have to indicate that the WBS element is a billing element in the WBS.

  • Reports to see cost in statistical WBS elements

    Hi,
    Is there any standard SAP report available to see cost in statistical WBS element?
    Aman

    Closing the thread. Got answer.

  • We want to post actual cost through statistical WBS elements.

    when we do the posting on Costcenter assigned to a Statistical WBS element (2nd level), I was in the opinion that, the actual cost posted on the Costcenter of statistical WBS (2nd level) will reflect to the top WBS element (which is non-statistical in 1st level).
    But, I cannot able to see the actual cost in the 1st level WBS which also a Billing element (with this, finally we want to  do the Resource Related Billing).
    So expalin me how to bring actual cost posted on the costcenter of a Statistical WBS, to top WBS element which is non-statistical.

    U can book the actual cost from Procurement Cycle or by direct Invoice posting using FI transaction.
    Procurement Cycle:
    When you create PR or PO user Account Assignment Q or P and maintain WBS element. When u do GR or service entry actual cost is captured on the Project (WBS element).
    Using FI Transaction:
    When there is no PO and to book the cost u can use  F-43  to post actual cost (via Invoice) and mention WBS element.
    U can check the Actual Cost using Line item report CJI3 or S_ALR_87013532.

  • No costs visible statistical WBS element

    Hi,
    The followin steps are the setup:
    - Project with a statistical WBS element and a network below
    - Create a PO with Account category "Fixed Asset"
    - Fill in a fixed asset, but also a (statistical) WBS element (put fields 'project' and 'network' optional in customizing)
    - execute a MIGO to book costs
    Now when I run the cost report for this project using transaction CJI3 then I do NOT get the costs visible on this statistical WBS element.
    HOWEVER when I do the same steps, but instead of putting a statistical WBS element I put the network (next to the fixed asset) then I do get the costs visible.
    Is this normal or do I have to change something in order to get the costs visible for my statistical WBS element?
    kindest regards
    bert

    It is normal

  • WBS Element System Status to REL-Release

    Hi,
    I am looking for a way to set the System Status to REL instead of CRTD- created as soon as the WBS element is created.
    Can any one please provide their valuable suggestion.
    Thanks for your help,
    Satish

    Hi Satish,
    Sorry to say that I am still unclear with the requirement.
    When you say that users want to post cost to the WBS element, is it a direct Cost entry against the WBS or is it through GI/Service Enrtry and acceptance?
    If it is through GI/Service Enrtry and acceptance, then no costs can be posted without the release of the WBS.
    Hope I have put my point clearly.
    regards

  • Validation to post against cost centre OR WBS (but one is required)

    I am trying to set up GL accounts so that although cost centre or WBS element is optional, I need to ensure that ONE of these is selected before the item is posted.
    I think this means I need to use a validation on the line item, but please could you let me know if you have come across this in the past, and how I should set up the validation.
    Many thanks
    Anna

    The fact that Controlling is activated, When you create a cost element for that G/L account, it will be, by default mandatory to enter a cost object (like cost centre/WBS element etc) before it can be posted. There is no separate validation required.

  • Cost center receiving the real posting even WBS Element are present

    Dear All
    As per standard SAP documentation, when both cost center and WBS elements are present in the same accounting document, WBS element will take real posting and cost center will take statistical posting.
    But in the MIRO document cost center took the real posting even the WBS element is present in the line item of the accounting document.
    Regards
    Partha Pratim Bhar

    Hi
    If the WBS element is not statistical, then the real posting should be to the WBS element. However, if you see, when the WBS element becomes a statistical,(when the check mark is added in the control tab) the field cost center becomes active and needs to be input.
    In your case since you are deriving the cost center through a substitution rule. Normally if you rules of priority during a document posting, the substitution and validation rules takes a higher priority. So apparently the cost center will get the real posting!! Since the real posting is already made to the cost center, the entry to the WBS element would become a statistical one...
    Thats the reason why the situation changes when you deactivate the substitution rule. I am not sure about the entry in the WBS element...My guess is that you would not be able to settle the costs in the WBS Elements.
    Hope this clarifies.

  • Which functional modules we can use to update the costs in WBS?

    Can you show me sample implementation for the same?

    You can't.
    A UIImage object is a high-level way to display image data. You can create images from files, from Quartz image objects, or from raw image data you receive. The UIImage class also offers several options for drawing images to the current graphics context using different blend modes and opacity values.
    Image objects are immutable, so you cannot change their properties after creation.
