Cost center blocked

[Former Member]

Hi,

While transferring the payroll document through RPCIPE00, our most of the cost center is changed to default cost center 999000.

Warning message " Cost center XXXX/ 123456 blocked against direct postings on 01/31/2008

Message no. KI 260

Diagnosis :

Cost center 123456, controlling area XXXX is locked for primary postings on 01/31/2008.

The SAP System automatically determined controlling area

XXXX from the company code (and business area).

Please tell where can I check all these bocking FI system or from HR system ?

Hi,

I'm from HR side and not having authorization for Tcode KS02.

This is to change the cost center; do we have something to display.

In today's payroll posting; lots of cost centers have been posted to default cost center in the document.

Please help me in this regard.

U can use KS03 for displaying the cost center.

Hi,

While transferring the payroll document through RPCIPE00, our most of the cost center is changed to default cost center 999000.

There are 700 line entries in which default cost center has entered.

What can we do??..

**We have realeased & transferred the Payroll document to FI.

Can we do something in FI or HR side to post these document automatically??.. it will save 5-6 days of manual changes.**

Hi,

U can change the cost center with the tcode KB61.

it takes the reference of Fi documnets so easy to trace it out.

Really it sounds good, giving me some relief. BUT please clarify,

1. This change you mentioned, we will do in FI side or HR side?

2. Fyi, we have already posted and transferred the payroll document to FI, now will that work?

3. Do we need to find individually all the employees' cost center and match the amount?

I am from SAP-HR payroll side.

waiting for reply.

Hi,

This is from FI side. what this transation will do is it will transfer the value of dummy cost center to the cost center u require.

go to tcode KB61

You need to put the document no. which is having wrong cost centers, company code, fiscal year & if u know the cost element then put it and if u know the dummy cost center then put it and execute.

it will show the co document no. and cost center in acct asgmt 1 field, Just change ur cost center there it will transfer the amount from the dummy cost center to the cost ctr u require.

But take the help of FI person to avoid further confusions.

To display the controlling document use the tcode KB63.

Thanks Minakshi; but I have the following doubts...

In payroll FICO posting at HR side we get 2 docs ( doc no. and reference doc no.) and /nKB61 (Enter line item repostings) program ask for document number. (which one to give). Do i need to search the corresponding FI document in FI box?

In our case very document has 3-4 cost centers which are assigned to default cost centers. Now in FI system, I can open the transaction but don't have authorization to see into the 2nd step. So just want to ask; how this will work, you said that in next step it will prompt the new cost centers but ( here we have 1 default cost center corresponding to 4 old cost centers and we have to change all the 4 cost centers. ) So what prior information do we need to have to go into this program?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You have to provide the FI document no.

the system won't promt for new cost center but u have to replace the dummy one with the one u require.

Pls take the help of FI guy so that he will make ur work quite easier.
