Mass Extension of cost center and cost element validity dates

[Former Member]

Hi SAP Gurus,

We have around 5000 cost centers and 6000 cost elements for which "Valid to" date is 09/27/2008. We need to extend this date for another 5 years.

Can you please suggest any pointers as how we can do the mass update.

We have already tried KS12 which is not of any help.

Thanks,

Sreeni.

Hi Sreeni,

You can use LSMW.

e.g. you cost center current year end is 12/31/08.

using LSMW you can create same cost center from 01/01/2009 to 12/31/2014.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks,

Hi,

Run the LSMW.

Or Use the fuction automatic creation of Primary/Secondary cost elements in the SPRO.

Or You can write a program which replaces the valid to date directly in the database table.

For this you require ABAPER help.
