Dear Shurti

You Can't assign two cost centre to one position with one validity date.

Because the moment you assign second cost centre to that position, system is populating a warning massage asking for delimiting the existing cost centre.

but you can assign different cost centre to one person through IT 0027.

Suppose a person is holding a postion of Executive (training) with 50% and another 50% is holding HR (Admin) so you can assign one cost centre to each position and assign two different cost centre through IT0027 (cost Distribution)

u know what i am thinking as u said that

1) one position is splited into two in ppome under work schedule

2) then in po13 we make relationship of the two splited positions with cost centers we want to assign

3) then we go to 0027 and do cost distribution step

i was thinking that step 2 and 3 are both neccesary steps to be done. means both are compulsary to be done.

hello shruti,

i hope we can't assign two master cost centers to one position. but we can distribute costs of that position in two cost centers.

check whether your working in costcenter assignment or cost distribution.

If you want to assing cost center from OM i.e infotype 1018

use Tcode PO13 and choose A 11 which is cost centre assingment

1) what i understood is

cost distribution is done for short span of time.

then u said first i make relationship of position with that cost center in po13

then i must do cost distribution.

but tell me that first

how can i split position into 2 in %

then can i assign both splited positions to diff cost centers in po13

then i must do cost center distribution step.

2 ) how can i use 1018 for this procedure to assign cost centers.

3) at last is it conclusion that 2 cost centers cant be given to one position.

ur document is really very nice

but pls remove my confusion.

shruti,

Please dont get too much confused

You are not spliting the person you spliting the just cost here

For example

if one person hadling two postions which belongs to 2 cost centres.

production

Sales

one person do the produciton half day rest of the he do sales his cost means salary shld split to both cost centre 50% each

like that we split will happend

In my doc one slide is there with percent where you can give percentage

[Former Member]

I got it but tell me what is the case u are taking.

1) one position and 2 cost centers

2) one person holding two positions having two cost centers

3) but why we are giving percentage in work schedule

4) we were trying to assign two cost centers to positions na

why u are doing work schedule.

u divided positions into %

then u want each position to have 2 cost centre in pp01.

i am confused . pls elaborate for me.

[Former Member]

sorry i thought u want to know where we can assign percentage?

for ur issue u can go to cost distribution tab.there u have to provide cost centre name and %.

[Former Member]

I am waiting for ur reply

regards,

shruti

[Former Member]

sorry i was talking about assignment of % to positions.

go to cost distribution tab and give name & %.

[Former Member]

u mean to say that

1) i must move person to another organisational unit

2) divide positions into 50-50 for him

3) then give cost centers to them in 0027

question again is that

u are saying in cost distribution i can give percentages

please tell detail steps

at last then cost center can be assigned to one position

to one position more than one cost center can be assigned only when u divide position in 2 parts.

please tell detail steps to assign 2 cost centers to one position in 0027 as u are saying.

regards,

shruti
