Validation on PLant and profit center for Material

Hi gurus
please advise on validation.
On FB50 transaction, Our users want a validation for particular accts say (GL: No 999888)
that if a material is entered in FB50, a plant and profit center must also be entered AND the entered plant and profit center should be the one from the material master MM03.
Please advise steps as how to build validation for the above requirement.
Many thanks in advance

Hi
You should never post any entry to a material account from FB50. FB50 is a purely FI transaction, and the Inventory accounts get hit automatically by various MM transactions. If you will post an entry from FB50 to a material account, there will always be inconsistency between FI & MM records.

Hi
You need to check if you really the report Plant wise and if yes, then check if the Accounting Transactions are maintained at Plant Level in your source system i.e. in R3.
Ideally it should be Business area or Functional Area or Controlling area which are maintained in Accounting Transactions. You will also the relevant details for these Characterisitics + Profit Center in the NEW GL Accounting data sources.

Link between Plant and Profit Center

Hi,
Can any one let me know how to derive profit center for a plant or where this info is stored.
thanks,
preetham s

Hi
There is no direct relationship between a plant and profit center. Based on your configuration in the system, however, you can have various relationships. For eg, if your plant is one valuation arrea, there is a relationship for various cost center and cost elements at the valuation area level in T Code OKB9. In such a case, every valuation area relates to a plant and profit center derives the data for a plant from the cost center and cost element combination. Another way could be through the material master, where, for every plant view, you can assign a profit center. Another way of looking things could be a scenario, where every plant is also a profit center. In such a scenario, in EEC 6.0, you can draw Financial Statements also at Profit center level.
Thanks & Best Regards

Plant and profit center

Dear CO Gurus,
I have a scenario as described below.
The semifinished material is manufactured in first work center/cost center. The Finished product is produced in second
work center/cost center and consumes the semifinished product manufactured in the first cost center.
The same semifinished material also sold directly to customer from the same plant. Now both the cost centers are under one plant. Is it possible to have separate cost and revenue reports for this two materials ( semifinished and finished product), two cost centers.
Or is it necessary to divide the single plant having this two cost centers into two individual plants. If we split the plant into two, then the semifinished material will be issued to finished product as a stock transfer from plant 1 to plant 2. Customer do not want to do every time stock transfer orders.
So is it possible to have single plant and 2 different cost center for the semifinished and finished product manufacturing .And can we take separate cost and revenue reports without splitting the plants.
Thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi,
You have to split your issue into two parts i.e one is workcenter/cost center combination to capture activities costs and other one is Plant and profit center combination to have report.
U can have different cost centers for both semi finished and finished products to calculate the activity types in the same plant. U define separately the activity cost for each cost center and activity type and assign the same in the respective workcenters of the products.
If each plant is created as a profit center, one option is to assign the same profit center for both the products and taking the report on profit center with material as a sort field, which will give the desired report.
Another option is to create two different profit centers for these products and assign in the material master for material and plant combination as Semi Finished and Finished goods are going to be different material codes.

Assign manual cost and profit center for 3rd party purchase order

When we have a 3rd party purchase order we need to assign OUR cost and profit center to that document. Here is the scenario:
We buy a product from a vendor for $10 and then re-sell the product to a customer for $100. Instead of posting this information to either cost or profit center of the vendor and customer, we need to assign the $10 to our company cost center and the $90 to our company's profit center. We are basically acting as a middle man for selling a product.
I am fairly a newbie, so please provide detailed answers if possible. We create the sales order in VA01 and create the purchase order in ME22N.

HI Kapil,
For any accounting entry you need to define a General Ledger Account where the details (Amount) of the transaction will be stored.
Just by maintaining cost centre will not help in completing any transaction involving accounts. So you need to maintain G/L account in the controlling area of your company code.
You can use T Code FS00 to create new G/L account in the chart of accounts.
In the edit cost element Tab you can give the cost center that you want.
I hope this helps.
thanks

Changing the profit center for Material impact on inventory turnover

Dear All,
Due to recent organization structure change, we have some up with new set of profit center in our organization.
This means that old profit center as case in point in material master should be changed to new ones, after flushing the stock out. Probably, by moving stock to cost center with movement type 201 and then after the profit center change we reverse with movement type 202.
We use standard SAP report MC.7 inventory turnover calculation. Based on this inventory turnover, we use this ratio to calculate the inventory obsolescence provisions.
So, our issue is the above movement profit center change by moving it to cost center, does it impact the inventory turnover?
Or alternatively, can use some other movement type which does not change the inventory turnover? So, that we are assured from our side, about no change on inventory turnover and subsequent the change to our inventory obsolescence provisions.
Please help me here.
Kind Regards,
Prakash

Hi Venkat,
Thanks for the reply. How different this movement type 562 (intial stock upload) is different then 201 (cost center consumption)?
I mean does it not update the info structure?

Prakash

Profit center to be substitutied with 100000
IF Plant =2000
Profit center to be substitutied with 200000
You can create a substitution by using T.code:OBBH

Profit Center for Billing Substitution

Hello,
I am currently using this substitution in 0KEM to populate the profit center for billing (PCTRF) in an inter-company sales order.
PrCtr Type = '2' AND Profit Center = '' AND (
Sales Org. = '5010' OR Sales Org. = '5020' )
It is working because the profit center for billing (driven by PrCtr Type = '2' ) field is originally blank and so I can substitute in a different profit center value.
My question is I would like to take this a step further and substitute different profit centers in the profit center for billing field (PCTRF) based on the value in the profit center field (PRCTR). Has anyone had any luck with this? I see that is is controlled using the PRCTR_TYPE 1 and 2 in the PCASUB area, but I am yet to figured out the right combination for it to work.
Appreciate any help.
Kevin

Kevin,
Refer to SAP Note 815972 - PCA substitution for cross-company-code sale.. It gives the details on how to fill the two fields "Profit Center" and "Profit Center for Billing within the substitution.

Wrong Profit Center on Material document (Goods Receipt PO for Asset)

Dear SAP Expert,
When our company upgrade our SAP version from 4.6C to ECC6, all Profit Center on Material document (Goods Receipt on Purchase Order for Asset) is filled by profit center DUMMY.
This condition not happend in our previous version (4.6C). Is there any new configuration on ECC6 for Asset Accounting?
Many Thanks
Maickel P

Hi, Maickel:
There is a setting for Dummy Profit Center, you can check in SPRO: Controlling->Profit Center Accounting->Master Data->Create Dummy Profit Center.
And you can refer to the help of this IMG activity:
Create Dummy Profit Center
This function lets you create the dummy profit center for the current controlling area.
The dummy profit center is updated in data transfers whenever the object to which the data was originally posted (cost center, order, and so on) is not assigned to a profit center. This ensures that the data in Profit Center Accounting is complete. You can later send the data on the dummy profit center to the other profit centers using assessment or distribution.
You create the master record for the dummy profit center using this special transaction. To change or display it, use the normal profit center maintenance functions.
The name of the dummy profit center is displayed in the controlling area settings for Profit Center Accounting.
Prerequisites
The standard hierarchy must exist for the current controlling area.
Actions
Enter the name of the dummy profit center. The rest of the steps are the same as when you create a normal profit center.
Choose the function Extras -> Set controlling area first to make sure that the correct controlling area is set.
Notes on transporting
You can transport the Customizing settings for Profit Center Accounting under Transport Connection.

Wrong profit center on material doc (Goods Receipt against PO for Asset)

Dear SAP Expert,
When our company upgrade our SAP version from 4.6C to ECC6, all Profit Center on Material document (Goods Receipt on Purchase Order for Asset) is filled by profit center DUMMY.
This condition not happend in our previous version (4.6C). Is there any new configuration on ECC6?
Many Thanks
Maickel P

HI Werner,
Based on Note 684659
Question 10:
"Why aren't the correct profit centers derived from the account assignment objects?"
Response[1]:
You first have to maintain the account assignment objects as described in the response for question.
Action:
I Already assign account assignment object PS_PSP_PNR "WBS Element of Investment Project", transaction type '*', account assignment type 'APC Values Posting' because our transaction is using WBS element as an account assignment on purchase order.
(Before I assign this account assignment object on t-code ACSET all transaction for asset which account assignment using WBS element doesn't generate controlling document on GR process)
Response[2]:
You also have to make sure that the profit center is ready for input in the field status of the account and the posting key.
Question:
Where I have to check this condition?
Please check the field status of the account FS00 if Profit Center and Cost Center maintained optional.
Action:
I Already check on "FS00 - Edit cost element" and found that "Default account assignment" is blank
