WBS, Business Area and Profit Center not flowing in GR/IR Account

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have come across a very strange situation. I have two MIGO documents which are showing different posting characteristics:

1) FI Document 5000000553

In this document, the Business area and profit center is flowing in GR/IR Clearing Account (15660000) but WBS element is not flowing to this line item.

Screen shot is as follows:-

As you can see from the above screen shot  that, for GR/IR Account 15660000. Only Business Area and Profit Center are flowing and WBS Element is not coming.

2. FI Document 5000015602

In this document, the WBS element is going in GR/IR Clearing Account (15660000) but Business area and profit center is not flowing to this line item

Screen Shot is as follows:-

From the above screen shot, Business Area and Profit Center are not flowing but WBS Element is coming.

Could you please let me know what could be the possible reason for this behavior of both the documents.?

Hi Ravi,

No there is no such validation. Perhaps, If I click on General Ledger View for FI Document 5000015602, then Business Area and Profit Center comes.

Hi Amrit,

Generally Profit center comes through Material Master whereas Business Area comes via Plant or Substitution rule.

I think for first Screen shot, while creating PO it was not selected as WBS. you can see this in ME23N Transaction code Account Assignment.

In the second screen shot, if you observed the business area is different compare with first screen shot.It means that Inputs are different compare with first PO.

Can you compare Material code,  Plant & Account Assignment for both PO's. There must be different inputs.

Thanks.
