Dear Experts,

While creating PR using GL account xxxx this error message appears:

Revenue cannot be assigned to CTR xxxx//2222

Message no. KI 295

Diagnosis

The given object is not a valid additional account assignment for revenue or debit postings.

Procedure

In this transaction only use additional account assignments that allow revenue postings.

I've check through KA03, the CE category is "revenue" (category 11). I've tried using another CE (e.g: CE category 1)to creating PR and its works.

How to fix this issue since the user still want to use the CE with category 11?

Pls advice.

Thanks.

Cost centers are for monitoring costs. When you allow the revenues to be posted to a cost center, it means that you are controlling the revenues also with the use of cost center controlling.

In your case you are using GL account which has been created as revenue element(category 11). To revenues any costs being assigned to cost centers will not be allowed. When you use a cost element (category 1) it posts as you are using this to post costs. SAP recognises this as a cost when you post to this category.

As far as possible you should avoid posting revenues to cost centers. Let me know if you need any further clarification.

Hi

If you would still want to create the purchase requisition with the same cost element and the cost center, please do the following:

1. Go to KS02 and change the cost center. In the "control" tab, remove the tick marks in the actual and plan revenue fields.

2. Check in KA03 uif the C Elem Cat is 11

3. Ensure in Me51n the Acct Assignment Cat is K

4. Give the GL account (C Elem) and the cost center in the item detail section.

Then save the PR. It will allow you to save....let me know if you need anything else from me.'
