Hi Boppana,

There are two possibilities to have the profit center field as

mandatory in KS01 (cost center creation):

a) You can modify message number KS096 to "Error" via OBA5.

Thus, the users would no be able to save a cost center without enteri

a profit center.

Depending on Your release you can make KS096 modifiable by

implementing note 486781.

b) You can directly modify the field via SE51 (SE51 -> Element list ->

Rider Special Attributes) to mandatory entry.

But in order to do this, You will need an SAP developer and

object key (available via OSS ).

I would strongly advise method a). It's simpler and you don't

have to modify a SAP object (it would be a modification of the standard)

Hi Guido

I guess there is one more option... We can use exit COOMKS02 to check if the Profit Center is blank

however, your option 1 is the BEST
