Profit Center is missing in General Ledger View

Hi all,

While displaying the Accounting document via Tcode - FB03, there is a Profit Center getting displayed in "Entry View", which is not getting reflected when we select "General Ledger View".

Please advise us if any New GL customisation we are missing?

Points will be assigned.

Do the necessary settings as above , you can find profit center field in your gl view.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Would like to confirm some more points relating to the subject matter.

1st Setting :

SPRO -> FA (New) -> FA Global setting (New) -> Ledgers -> Fields -> Display Scenarios for GL A/cg.

We have already maintained the suggested setting.

2nd Setting :

IMG/Financial Accounting (New)/FA Basic Settings(New)/Ledgers/Ledger/Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers/

0L Leading Ledger ->

FIN_PCA Profit Center Update

After doing the suggested setting Profit Center is getting updated properly.

We have upgraded our system to ECC 6.0, 2 years ago with activation of New General Ledger Accounting. Still we have not deactivated "Classical Old GL Accounting".

Also document splitting is not activated at our end.

Now please suggest us:

A. What is the importance of FIN_SEGM Segmentation suggested by you in the 2nd Setting which we have not done.

B. We have FIN_SEGM - Segmentation setting done in the 1st setting mentioned above.

Is there anything we have wrongly done or now the customisation is proper for updation of Profit Center in an "General Ledger View" ?

Please reply, points will be assigned.

Hi,

FIN_SEGM Segmentation - setting is for Segments - If you have segments (which will be assigned in Profit Center Master data), you can view Segments in GL view.

If you activate Document Splitting Now, you will face the problems with old open items which are not having Segments & Profit centers in GL view.

Thanks for the reply. Points assigned

I am closing this issue since client want to first migrate the data to New GL accounting and with that only want to close the issue.

At client site New G/L customisation has been made but still working with classical G/L tables only.

While doing the Profit center related subject changes in customisation we received a warning error as:

1. Changing the setting is harmful to the system

2. Be carful since there could be a problem at target system

Could had been because we made the customisation and again remove that for testing purpose. When we did that for the 2nd time system has thrown above errors.

Hence decided to do the customisation at the time of migrating the data only and not at this time.

I had similar issue in sandbox client where i was looking for a solution around zero balancing. However when i changed the setting there, it automatically cleared the customisations in the scenarios and I was wondering all around, what went wrong. However my issue was resolved. Thanks to Rajeswari. I wish SDN had a facility where when people get their questions answered through looking at other threads, they are allowed to award points too to deserving people

Best Wishes
