Long text

Symptom As of Release 4.5A, unlike Release 3.x, the cost center assigned to a statistical order (as of Release 4.5A actual posted cost center) can no longer be changed if the order carries costs.

Additional key words KO02, KO04 COAS-CYCLE, SAPMKAUF, screen 0315, screen 0600

Cause and prerequisites The system response that you notice here is not a program error, but a function implemented as of Release 4.5A.The aim is to prevent errors in subsequent postings which are due to a changed actually posted cost center.

Solution The posting logic in connection with the field 'Cost center to which costs are actually posted to' is displayed in the help for the field (F1):

Cost center to which costs are actually posted to:

Cost center which is posted in addition to a statistical order.

Use

This field is only used for statistical orders.If you specify a cost center, you can post statistical postings to the order additionally actually to the specified cost center.

For manual postings, you have the choice between two functions:

1. Standard case

In addition to the statistical order, all postings are posted to the specified cost center.A cost center that may have been entered as an alternative is changed automatically by the system.

2. Alternatively adjustable posting logic Page 2

If no additional cost center is specified for a posting on the statistical order, there is an additional posting to the cost center that is defined in the order.If a cost center is explicitly assigned to an account together with the order, the posting is to this cost center.If you require this alternative posting logic, deactivate the message KI337.You can do this by using the option "Change Message Control" (application area "KI", message number 337) in the Implementation Guide "General Controlling".

Notes

For periodic allocations, the cost center specified here is actually posted to.If you have not defined a cost center, the particular order is not processed within periodic allocation.

If you prefer the system response from 3.X releases, then implement the program changes from this note.
