Why we maintain the profit centre in MM module?
Hello,
I want know, why we maintain the profit centre in MM module?

A profit center is a section of a company treated as a separate business. Thus profits or losses for a profit center are calculated separately. A profit center manager is held accountable for both revenues, and costs (expenses), and therefore, profits. What this means in terms of managerial responsibilities is that the manager has to drive the sales revenue generating activities which leads to cash inflows and at the same time control the cost (cash outflows) causing activities. This makes the profit center management more challenging than cost centre management. Profit center management is equivalent to running an independent business because a profit center business unit or department is treated as a distinct entity enabling revenues and expenses to be determined and its profitability to be measured. Business organizations may be organized in terms of profit centers where the profit center's revenues and expenses are held separate from the main company's in order to determine their profitability. Usually different profit centers are separated for accounting purposes so that the management can follow how much profit each center makes and compare their relative efficiency and profit. Examples of typical profit centers are a store, a sales organization and a consulting organization whose profitability can be measured.

Change the profit centre in the cost centre master after a year
Hi All,
Could you'll please let me know whether it was possible to change the profit centre in the cost centre master and if i did what will be the implications.
Thanks and Regards,
VandanaRefer transaction code OKEG.
You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity
types, and business processes with time dependencies. You can make
changes at any time for any given time interval. Data storage also takes
place with a time reference. In this way, a master data record can have
multiple database records storing different information.
The smallest interval is one day. To ensure data consistency, you cannot
change each field daily. The timeframes in which you can change a field
depend on the field functions, which are fixed by the system and cannot
be changed. Master data maintenance includes an automatic check for each
field's time-based consistency, resulting in individual time-based
maintenance for each field.
The following dependencies are supported:
o Not time-based
o Day-based
o Period-based
o (Fiscal) year-based
This function provides an overview of the time dependencies of
individual master data fields during master data maintenance, along with
checks and storage of consistency timeframes. You find this information
in the "Time dependency" column.
If you use fields requiring characteristics greater than one day and
which are changed for the system lifetime of the object, the system
automatically creates a new database record for this processing
interval, and changes the time-based validity of existing records. The
change is logged in the master data record with the time reference.
However, a great number of changes in multiple timeframes will result in
a correspondingly great number of data records.
Fields which you can change freely (indicated in the DAY column) can
possess different time dependencies only if you mark them additionally
as historically relevant. This activates the time-based updating for the
records.
Object 1000 has one master data record created with a fiscal year of 12
periods and the cost center name AAAAAAAAAA. During master data
maintenance, you change the cost center name in period 5 to BBBBBBBBBB.
The system reacts with one of two options.
o "Name" is marked as historically relevant. The existing master data
record for periods 1 - 12 must now become three records:
1000 01-04 AAAAAAAAAA
1000 05 BBBBBBBBBB
1000 06-12 AAAAAAAAAA
o "Name" is not marked as historically relevant. The existing master
data record remains intact, with the name changed for the entire
existence of the record:
1000 01-12 BBBBBBBBBB

To override the profit centre derived from account assignments
Hi SAP GURUS
I had assigned a profit centre in 3KEH in ECC6.0 (New G/L is not activated, hence using 3KEH) for a particular G/L account.
But when i do a MIRO, the profit centre is derived from the PM order.
I want the settings in 3KEH to override the Profit centre derived from PM order.
Kindly guide me to overcome the issue.
Regards
R.KarthigayanHi,
As you need to only change the profit centre , when you have a PM order in MIRO. Then i would suggest you use a Validation & Subsitution Rules.
Validation should check whether a MIRO has PM order or not, If yes then it should do the PC Change.

Lock the profit centre change via CJ20N and CNMASS tcodes
Hi Friends,
I have a requirement where in user should not be allowed to change the profit centre of Project Definition and WBS via tcode CJ20N and change the profit centre of Project Definition, WBS, Netowok and Activity via tcode CNMASS.
I could achieve the profit centre lock for PD, WBS and Network by Implementing BADIs PROJECTDEF_UPDATE, WORKBREAKDOWN_UPDATE and WORKORDER_UPDATE.. The implemented BADI 'WORKORDER_UPDATE 'is reachable while changing profit centre of Activiy as well. But the details of the changes of activity is not visibile inside BADI.
If anybody has any input for this, it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
RKThanks Martin,
Small scenario here..I have created a Validation and In prerequisite of Step001, I have kept a condition Transaction Code = CNMASS. Structure AFVGD is visible.
I have created an Exit PLOCK, but when I keep a Break Point in the ABAP Routine of PLOCK(Both soft and hard Break Points), the Control doesnt stop in those break points when I run the transaction CNMASS.
I think some understanding in the concept is missing in my part. Please suggest to help me fill this gap.

Why we Maintain the data in Trxn # CL20N / CL24N for Release Strategy ?
Dear All Gurus,
Please resolve my Query , that during maintaining the Release strategy for a P.O , i used to create characteristics for defined values such as plant , currency , doc. type etc, then creating class and assigning these characterstics with this class created.
Now after this i had create Release Group , Release Code and Release Strategy and assigned the Rel. Code with the Rel . Str and in Classification tab i had manually mentioned all those created Characterstics in CT04 and finally saved this Process.
Till now i had not at all made any entry in Trxn # cl20n.
But when i had create a P.O with all the values as same as defined in characteristsc , the Rel Str got triggered succesfully.
My Question is that , what is the use of mainiating data in Trxn # CL20N & CL24N ?
Please clarify my doubt.
Many Thanx in advance.

Edited by: Rajeev Chaturvedi on Jan 20, 2011 5:08 PMit is just another way to maintain the same thing in the same tables. Classification notspecific to release strategies, materials and batches, vendors and customers can be classified too.
You can do this from withion those objects, or from the central classification menu using the classification transactions.
People here recommending this for production system after you have transported the strategy from developement to production. Becaues classification is master data and cannot be transported the usual way. And many here do not know how this can be done with ALE -

How to manipulate the profit center in the prod order within an mto-flow
Hello,
It is allowed in the sales order to change the profit center. I want to copy the entered profit center from my sales order to the profit center of my linked production order which has been created automatically.
I tried already some user-exits (enhancements PPCO000?) but it doesn't work. Who can help me solving this problem?
Many thanks for helping,
BartDear,
Maintain the Profit Centre in Costing 1 View of Material Master.
Then it will be defaulted into the Production Order.
Profit center can be entered at the item level in the sales order T.Code: VA01, in the Account Assignment Section.
If Profit Centre is maintained in Material Master Data, in Sales: General / Plant data, then the same will default in sales order.

Need Profit centre field as mandatory field in the sales order
Dear All,
Normally Profit center data maintained in the material master, same data will get coipied to the sales order while creating sales order in VA01 transaction.
My requirement is if profit center data is not maintained/available in the sales order system should give the error message
For this I need Profit center field as mandatory field in the sales order(VA01).
Can you please give possibilities ASAP.
Give the SHD0 maintenance step by step.
Regards,
Murali.Hi Murali
I beleive that you are talking about the Profit centre field not maintined in sales order hence not picked in delivery and billing and there is an FI posting error (GL account error) because of that
Profit centre is maintained in MMR and the same flows thro the sales cycle and i am quite sure if maintained in MMR it will be picked automatically and no need to make it mandatory in sales order( as the purpose is already solved)
But there is no standard option in SAP like (even if Account assignment category of the material is not maintained in MMR it can be given in VF02 and the document can be released for accounting) to give the Profit centre in the billing and release the same
Profit centre field field is picked from masters and flows in the entire flow and that field is greyed out (like no option of inserting it inbetween)
As told by others incompletion log in sales doc type will take care for future orders and for the already created orders the standard option is cancel billing, reverse delivery and open the sales order and give Profit centre field and process it (if only a few orders are there)
But if the already created orders are many then from the FI Area you need to go for development ( we also faced this issue as profit center not maintained in MMRs and hence accounting got hit and there were tons of billing docs and our FI consultant made some development to open it and solve it) FI consultant should be able to do this for already created orders
Instead of making Profit centre field as mandatory field in the sales order better make it a mandatory entry in MMR
