Determine Specific cost center for specific Plant during Cycle Count Posting MVT 711

[Ehsan100]

Hey All,

Is there any standard SAP Config where I can assign specific cost center for specific plant. So that during MVT 711 posting System will find cost center 1000 for plant 1000 and for Plant 2000 cost center will be default to 2000 Or I have to find MB1A or MB11 user exit

Here is my scenario. My client execute standard cycle count process.

A. Create and activate cycle count document 2 Count the Material 3. Clear the difference from IM and 4.Clear the difference from WM. Once we clear the difference based on (+-) system trigger MVT 711 and 712.Obviously during posting based on profit center and GL account assignment system find cost center

I went to material master to see profit center . It was assigned for plant 9994 profit center 9994 and for plant 9993 profit center 9993.

Is there anything I have to add . Default Account Assignment

Hi ali.ehsan

There would not be a standard way to get this achieved. I would think of implementing BTE 1120 to write your own logic. You can replace your the standard FM with your own FM, which can call up your own z table, where, you can maintain plant wise cost centers.

There is only one caution(based on exp), I would suggest that the profit center that is derived from material master should be the same as that on the cost center. You might want to build in that kind of validation in the FM. Business wise also it makes sense since you would want to capture the cost in the same org unit, where you have your stock in, so the same profit center from material master and the cost center, where you want to posts differences to.

Other configurations like FI Substitutions or OKB9 would not work here. OKB9 would work only for system generated automatic postings and FI susbtitutions from OBBH do not work with all applications where MM-IM is the leading application and data is passed on the FI-GL application.

Thanks & Regards

Try this method
In OKB9, set the required cost center to the Cost Element and set 1 under Account assignment detail. Long time back, in one of my projects I did this but forget whether that worked. Test and update here

Hey Lakshmi,

I have tried from OKB9 it is not allowing me to add new entries for new cost center + entering value 1. Because cost element 520000 already assigned to plant 9994 and company code 0175

For your case probably plant aligned to profit center Custom table on linking plant and profit center

Cost center are not created at plant level - is/are created to capture cost incurred for an unit of department within a controlling area.

Posting different G/L accounts based on plants - you can use different valuation groping codes

Valuation grouping code---Valuation class----Transaction key------G/L account

Z001---------------------------------3000--------------INV----------------------- G/L-ONE

Z002----------------------------------3000------------INV--------------------------G/L-TWO

Hey Bijay,

Thanks for your suggestion. But, can we say it is not possible through SPRO . I am thinking to implement MB11 USER EXIT.

Not sure which one i should try to include .

If you wanted use one valuation grouping code instead of two then go ahead with your plan if suits to business!
