Hi,

What's the procedure you are using to delete controlling area? Normally, the program should delete master data by itself when deleting the CoArea.

If you dont intend to make use of the cost center group, please make sure there are no cost centers assigned.Only then you can delete a cost center group.

Hi,

Actually i am following below procedure.

1.FI Transaction -OBR1

2.FI Master - OBR2

3.Delete cost center - OKC4 ( apart from cost center no other controlling data)

4.Delete cost center group - OKEON

5.unassign controlling area from company code - OKKP.

6. Delete the controlling area - EC16

This procedure i followed for 5 company codes and i deleted the data successfully.

But for one controlling area i am not because more than one company code assigned to One controlling area.

So while deleting Cost center group it says This function is not allowed in Standard Hierarchy.

kinldy let me know how to delete this cost center group.

Hi,

Probably u might have created that using KSH1. U can try KSH2 transaction and delete u r cost center group. So it release the costcenter assigned to the group...

Hi,

Even i tired that also .

I am getting error as " this Function is not allowed in the Standard Hierarchy"

I think since more than one company code assigned to controlling area i am not able to delete it.

Kindly let me know any other way.

Hi,

Check the table COBK for any transaction data.If there is any data exists then you cant delete the master.

Use Transaction OKC3 to delete the Transaction Data from the controlling area first.Delete the Planning data too.

Then try to delete the Cost Center Group using KSH2.

Hope this helps you.

goto ksh2 and Extra , where used list. this way you can still see where else the cost center group is attached. After removing all the transaction data, goto Controlling area config and then remove the standard hierarchy. once you do that then you can delete the cost center group.

hope this helps.
