Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B but working for MIGO_GI

Hi All

Do you know why this behaviour different for subtitution written under cost center accounting.

We have written substitution using coding block table. Logic of substitution is in case of any GL maintained in a set is being used for posting , then we will replace the cost center with profit center vlaue. Reason being we have same naming convention for Cost center and Profit center.

Thanks

Hi,

MB1B is t-code for stock transfer posting.

Stock transfer posting generate FI document using balance sheet account, not P&L account.

Because you don’t create cost elements using balance sheet accounts related to stock, I think that Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B is right.

Hi Sonia

I am wondering why cant you use OKB9 for that.. You can default a CC per PC..

However, in some cases, detailed account assignment is not referred.. In those cases, you can use Substitution.. For your case, i think OKB9 should work.

If substitution is needed for some reason, can yuo try writing in OBBH?

Please show parameters of your prereq and substitution and what you mean by "not working". Are you getting error, substitution is not triggering, or replacing invalid values? Have you use your tracing feature to trace what values are coming through and if they meet the prerequisites? Without details, it's hard to help.
